I would like to share a story with you that struck me as being very profound. My group missed the train to go to Aguas Callientes from Ollantaytambo. The result was that we waited at the market stalls outside the station for an extra two and half hours. While there, a young girl (her name was Yobaline) of about three or four years old had a ball and was playing, at first with the others of the group, while I wrote in my journal. She was a very curious and lively sprite. She came over and started to scribble with my pen in my journal. I had my copy of Samarpan Yog beside me and she started to look through with great intensity and excitement. I had the post card sized Energy Body of Swamiji in the book, and when she came upon it, she grabbed it and started yelling "Papajito, Papajito (grandfather grandfather)." She took the postcard and ran over to her mother pointing at the card and screaming over and over again 'Papajito' when she came back to me she was kissing the card. it was a really lovely moment for me to witness her so honest and excited. I wrote 'Jai Baba Swami' on the back of the card and left it with her mother. Seems as though young Yobaline already has met Swamiji before.
Paul Broomfield I visited Montreal at the end of May 2010. My first day session meditating with the energy statue at the main centre in Montreal was a nice meditation having driven four hours from Vermont, USA. I then took a walk in the park where Swamiji had visited over 6 days in the year 2002. Montreal Sadhaks lovingly call this park - SHREE SHIVKRUPANAND SWAMI PARK. It is called PARC BEAUSEJOUR and is situated at 7000 Gouin Boulevard in Montreal. I sensed a couple of spots where the vibrations were stronger, a park bench facing the river and a spot on a trail through the woods. The next day I meditated over two sessions with the Murti. The energies felt much stronger. I returned to the park with my friend Kate from Edmonton who had gone to the International retreat in Dandi Ashram with our group 3 years earlier. We entered a different way from my trip before asking her to sense the energies as we silently walked the paths of the park. Kate and I immediately felt strong energies next to a row of 8 large trees. I did not say anything but motioned that we continue around the park. Kate stopped at the bench facing the water as well as the identical spot on the path surrounded by a dense collection of trees. When we again reached the 8 trees she stated the energy was very strong. I could feel it pulsating throughout my body and she could feel it very strongly in her arms and hands. I then explained that Swamiji had given extra vibrations in that spot when he visited Canada in the year 2002. I asked her about the quality of the energies she had felt with the Murti and in the park. Kate said that the Murti felt like a warm loving embrace of the mother. The energy in the park had a raw active pulsating feel. Ed Kemon
