It is a great privilege to be writing to you just before the highly auspicious festivities of Navaratri and Dasara begin. In Swami’s own words: “Indians have been celebrating the Navaratri festival from ancient times as a mode of worship of Devi, the Divine as mother. They worship aspects of Devi as Durga, Lakshmi and Sarasvati during those nine days.” - Divine Discourse 18 October 1991. “Durga grants us energy - physical, mental and spiritual. Lakshmi bestows on us wealth - not just money but wealth of other kinds such as intellect and character. Even health is a form of wealth. And Sarasvati bestows on us intelligence, capacity for intellectual inquiry and power of discrimination. The Navaratri festival is celebrated in order to proclaim the power of the goddesses (aspects of the Divine Feminine) to the world.” - Dasara discourse, October 1988.

This newsletter also comes to you on the heels of an increasing number of devastating hurricanes, floods, forest fires, earthquakes and droughts throughout the world. Our most sincere prayers are for those who have experienced loss and grief as a result of a disaster in their part of the world. I am making a humble request to all practitioners to spend time in deep silence and send copious amount of healing energy to all peoples of the world who have been affected by these natural disasters. Also radiate your healing energy to Mother Earth for all the changes she’s experiencing from global warming as a result of man’s destruction of her resources. It is important that we have faith in God, be positive and radiate the light of love within our hearts to all living beings throughout the day.

Our sisters and brothers in Poland have been silently flying high our Vibrionics flag throughout the country by engaging in dedicated selfless service. In the May-June 2017 issue of our newsletter, we wrote about Polish National Seminar, a phenomenally successful workshop that was held in Poland during 24-27 March. As a token of our gratitude, we dedicate this issue to showcasing the efforts of practitioners from Poland and neighbouring European countries via practitioner profiles, case histories, and research on the benefits of an alkaline lifestyle.

As part of our continued organizational digitization efforts, we are in the process of developing a new web-based portal where all practitioners will be able to update their personal data and submit their IASVP applications online. They will also be able to file their monthly reports online, thus eliminating the need to send these to their respective coordinators. We expect to complete this process within one month and all practitioners will be intimated of this via their registered email id.

I truly believe we have not even scratched the surface in terms of building awareness of vibrionics around the world. I would like each and every practitioner to take initiative and reach out to at least one new person each week and share with them an overview of Vibrionics (strictly as per the guidelines provided in the Vibrionics manuals for AVPs and SVPs) and also share with them the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roXS0_WcU28&feature=youtu.be to our “What is Vibrionics?” video. This is bound to have a windfall effect in spreading the vibrionics mission to each and every corner of our planet so that many may experience the benefit of the vibrational remedies. Do send us stories of interesting experiences you have along the way as they are certain to be a big source of inspiration for all of us.

As our mission continues to grow impressively along an upward trajectory, our administrative needs continue to increase proportionally. This means that we need more show of hands from practitioners to take on global, regional, and local administrative functions and tasks. Kindly come forward as every andany form of contribution to this end counts immensely. Please write to[email protected] or contact your regional/country coordinator to get more information on seva opportunities.

On behalf of all practitioners, I wish a belated Happy Onam to our entire Kerala, India vibro team! Swami said, “Whatever they do, the men and women of Sri Sathya Sai Organisation of Kerala conduct on a grand scale. I wish and bless that the devotees of Kerala must keep up this spirit in all their service activities in future also” in His Divine Discourse on Onam, September 2008. Keep it up, Kerala!!

In loving service to Sai
