94th Birthday of Shri Mataji in Romania

I am very proud to say, in Romania we celebrated Shri Mataji's 94th Birthday!

Lots of articles in media and also public programs dedicated to this wonderful day!

In Bucharest there were three days dedicated to our beloved Guru and Mother. The first was a painting exhibition varnishing followed by projection of Immaculata documentary and Self Realization experiment.   

On the 21st of March we had a public program in a very elegant museum in center of Bucharest (Sutu Palace). Self Realization experiment was held, but also people could see a public program of Shri Mataji in Cardiff from 1984. The program contained also recitals of piano and violin and Indian classical music.

Our musicians were enchanting us: Cristina Popescu Stanesti, Anne Marie Ene and Avadhut Kasinadhuni.

You can see here some videos. 

Next day, almost all new people who got Self Realization came to the follow up class.

Thank you, Shri Mataji, for giving us the Self Realization and the Light!

First Persian Music Tour in Romania - Journal of a Manager

One day, I was contacted by a Facebook friend, who asked me to help him perform in Romania. He contacted many people and organisations in our country in the last years, but, from all of them, I succeeded in doing something. But  only with Mother's help. There were many things I didn't know how to do and I couldn't imagine myself a few months ago doing them. But I was just put in the situation of doing them. For example, organizing a concert with selling tickets, working with an accountant, and, more, making a project for funding and also gaining the competition in the context of not being able to pay the artists. But more, an amazing feed-back from media and the public came. We had sold out concerts, we had people coming from far distance only to attend a concert. We also had scandal for not being able to offer more tickets. We had many people who offered to help and they helped, Sahaja Yogis or not.  

The concerts were held By Maestro (Sufi) Saeid Dadkhah and Hossein Sanaei, together with the sahaj tabla players Avadhut Kasinadhuni and Sorin Bunda.

We organised a traditional music gala, where Byzantine, Romanian folk (doina), Persian and Indian music joined together in the Catholic Cathedral St. Joseph. Here were invited together with already mentioned artists Cantores Ecclesiae choir, Ioana Marin, Anne Marie Ene. 

The tour had 11 concerts and 2 workshops which took place in the most important Romanian cultural institutions, to whom we thank for all help and support: Romanian Cultural Ministry, Bucharest, Brasov and Ploiesti Philharmonic, Bucharest Music University  and Cluj Music Academy, Focsani Athenaeum, Onesti Library,  Cotton Club Cluj and Hermitage Urban Hub.

Thank you all: Sabin Badea, Bianca Badea, Mihai Dobrescu, Vlad Vasilescu, Gabriel, Anne, Sorin, Avadhut, Codrin Nicolau, Andrei Becheanu, Alina Sampetru, Cristi Munteanu.

Since 1970, H.H.Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi., travelled world-wide giving self-realization to all regardless of race, religion and offering free public lectures. Shri Mataji is the first and only one in the history of spirituality to offer the experience of self-realization en masse through Sahaja Yoga. Her teaching has benefited hundreds of thousands worldwide to experience the inner balance and health improvement, thus giving complete spiritual ascent.

Self-Realization awakens within us the primordial kundalini energy an innate spiritual potential. It is a spontaneous process and Shri.Mataji emphasized that this awakening, cannot be purchased. All the workshops of Sahaja Yoga are done absolutely free by the local volunteers all over the world.

In addition to Sahaja Yoga, which is now established in more than 100 countries, Shri Mataji founded a non-governmental organization for destitute women and children, several international schools teaching a holistic curriculum, health clinics offering free treatment through Sahaja Yoga, and an arts academy to revitalize the classical skills of dance, music and painting.
