Espanola

Dear Sangath,
We are grateful to have begun our journey with a strong foundation in the beautiful community of the Espanola Ashram. These are some pictures that we took during our stay, please click on the slideshow on the right and it will redirect you to Picasa website, there you can view the pictures enlarged and download as you wish. It was an incredible experience of attending daily Sadhana, taking music and Gurmukhi classes, doing Karma Yoga and learning about the Sikh Dharma. We were fortunate to have attracted great teachers, lovely friends and tremendous support from the community to strengthen our practice. This connection will aid us on our journey to Angola-Africa, as our vision is to create a Kundalini community and spread Yoga in that region. Thank you to all of you for your well-wishes, blessings and most of all teachings and inspiration. A special thanks to Bibiji for having sent us the books to get started with the Gurdwara ceremonies and for her support in building a community in Angola.

Currently we are in Wichita-Kansas as many of you know. Jasmine is completing her studies for the aircraft she will be flying in Angola and I (Lamsa) am completing a project management course for the business projects that we will begin there. We are compiling and constructing our plan with excitement and trust that The Divine is guiding us. Our Hukam for this new chapter of our lives starts with "Meditate on the Lord, Har, Har, O mind; don't forget Him, even for an instant." (page 925 in 5665)

Many of you expressed a desire for us to blog about our progress as we pursue our vision. We will update you on this blog periodically, so please create this as a link and become a follower of our blog! We invite you to comment, write and guide us either on this blog by posting or emailing to us at:

Thank you for your blessings, support and love, please stay in touch as we miss the community already.
