A small group of Sahaja Yogis gave realisation at the Woodford International Indigenous Dreamtime Festival over the Queen’s Birthday weekend held on 8-11 June 2007. In all, about forty people received their self-realisation. Of these people, about seven were identifiably Indigenous.
There was, as always, great joy at the transmitting of this priceless gift. We also felt very privileged to be part of the Festival itself. Ancient rhythms and ceremonies combined with the vibrant, contemporary Indigenous music scene.
Original Australians from all over the country and more recently arrived races mixed freely and equally in a manner so rare in the recent history of this country. We were honoured and delighted to be there to share our Mother’s Love, and to learn from an ancient wisdom.
