Nukualofa, Tonga

Two free meditation classes will be held in Nukualofa, the capital of Tonga. The Sahaja Yoga meditation classes will be run by two practising Sahaja yogis from Australia.

The classes are suitable for people who have never meditated before, as well as regular meditators. There are no strenuous physical exercises, and no special clothing or postures are required.

Sahaja Yoga meditation is a very simple method for achieving a state of “thoughtless awareness” or mental stillness. This is very relaxing, and has been shown in scientific studies to have beneficial effects on physical health and mental wellbeing.

Dates:  22 August and 29 August, 2012

Time:  7.00 to 8.30pm

Venue:  St Andrew’s High School Hall

There is no charge for these classes. Sahaja Yoga is always free.

Shri Mataji

If you want to be positive, it is very easy. And for that you should see, “Where is your attention?” Are you only seeing problems or are you seeing some fun in it? There are people who cannot make fun of anything. If it is a sunny day, they will cry, “Oh God, what a sunny day!” And if it is a day with clouds, they will say, “Oh, what a day!” Nothing can please them.

But to enjoy the positivity in every negativity is the capacity of a Sahaja yogi. The negativity does not exist. It is an ignorance. Also, it is not ignorance because ignorance also does not exist. If everything is the All-pervading Power, then how can there be ignorance? But supposing, in the folds of this power, if you hide, run away, you will say that there is negativity. It is like, you hide yourself in a cave, close it properly and say that there is no sun.

Shri Mataji, Galate, Italy, 6 August, 1989
