Giving realisation in cinemas

On September 15th Dutch Sahaja Yogis gave self realisation to 12,000 women attending a special Ladies Night at a chain of cinemas in Holland.

Every month these cinemas organize a Ladies Night, which attracts thousands of women each time. On September 15th the movie Eat Pray Love was screened, a movie in which a woman, in crisis after her divorce, decides to go on a journey “to find herself again.” Among other places, she travels to India where she learns how to meditate.

One of the Sahaja Yogis was responsible for organising this event, and came up with the idea to have a small adapted Sahaja Yoga meditation, minutes before the movie starts. In a truly collective effort, with the help of our Belgian brothers and sisters, Sahaja Yogis managed to be present in 29 auditoriums in 18 cinemas in 15 cities throughout The Netherlands.

With more screenings in the following weeks, a total of 12,000 ladies will have received their Self realisation. At the end of the evening all women attending received a “goodie bag” which included a Sahaja Yoga brochure announcing meditation courses in various cities throughout the country.

It was an amazing sight to see a huge cinema packed with ladies, all with their hands raised above their heads to feel the cool breeze. They were very positive and clapped enthusiastically after the short meditation.

Lovely inspiration. Creative, brave and a collective manifestation of Mother's compassion through these great Yoginis in Holland. Best wishes.
