I’ve been getting higher grades since I started Sahaja Meditation
Kurt Hahn High School, East Flatbush, Brooklyn
This morning about 24 students came, including a few dragooned up from the cafeteria by the Dean, Mr. Mendelson whose enthusiasm and love for the students is outstanding and inspirational. We began meditating at just after 8 am to allow the latercomers time to settle, and there were three new students today, including Angie, who’d just arrived in the USA from the Dominican Republic who barely speaks a word of English but who was welcomed by all and helped by three students who speak some Spanish.
We began by going around the circle and saying how long we’ve been practicing Sahaja Meditation, it varied from 20 years to 11 months, to 3 months, to a couple of weeks. Â Joan Burress led the meditation and we meditated for about 10 minutes.
Afterwards, Mr Mendelson asked each of us how we felt. He said he had a million things on his mind right now, and after the meditation he felt completely focussed. People said things like relaxed, calm, focussed – and the three new people all experienced something calming and pleasant. Two people said it hadn’t worked for them.
Breakfast of oats, raisins, bananas, cinnamon and tea followed, provided as always by the inestimable Ms Fishstrom.
Here’s what one of the students said during breakfast.
