Only 1 week to go!

Dear Yogis,

Jai Shri Mataji!

Only a few days left until the tour officially kicks off! We are excited to share a few updates with you.

TOUR SHIRTS
The teal-coloured polo shirts have arrived and are available at the starting point of each route. Each touring yogi will get 2 shirts each. We will also have a limited number of spare shirts for purchase ($25 each). Proceeds collected will be put towards Facebook and Instagram advertising of tour programs. If you would like to buy one, please get in touch with your local tour leader ASAP!

JOIN A HAVAN NEAR YOU TO KICK OFF THE TOUR IN TRUE SAHAJ-STYLE
The Tour will begin with a havan at each starting point. If you live nearby, please join us! For those supporting from other parts of the continent, we would love for you to hold a clearing session on the same weekend in your home or at your local ashram if possible.
 

Dates for the havan are as follows
Perth, Adelaide and Canberra – Sunday, 30th June
Cairns – Monday, 1st July

ARE YOU PLANNING ON ATTENDING GURU PUJA AT WAMURAN?
If so, please don’t forget to register! This would really help the Brisbane yogis host you to the best of their abilities.

If you are a touring yogi, follow the instructions in the “tour checklist” email 😀

Also, please have a quick look at the weather forecasts for your route to make sure you have packed sufficient winter gear as it may get cold. Especially if you are currently enjoying summer weather in the North!
