sunlight meditation
Before I met Ananda Marga, I had read the book ‘Siddharta’ by Hermann Hesse which inspired me very much.

first experience with Baba
This was the first direct experience I had with Baba as a margii. I was taking part in some kind of lft training in Copenhagen, Denmark. Our trainer was Dada Krtashivananda.

my first Baba dream
After I had known Ananda Marga for about two to three years, one day I had a dream.
In the dream I was in India, standing inside a crowd of people. They wanted to sell me various kinds of perfumes but I was not so attracted by those fragrances.

words that remain
I was in some kind of conference hall when it was suddenly announced that Baba would be coming.
Then, the scenery changed. It looked like some kind of outdoor place and the rows of the front seats of the conference hall turned into waves and then some margii audience settled there.

namaste

third lesson experience
I usually don’t get any special power during or from meditation. Some people get it due to Baba’s test. But I don’t have any desire for that.

Namami Krsna Sundaram
One day in dream I opened a door and saw Baba in the room, telling me to come in. But when I saw Baba I had the feeling that actually it was not Baba but Krsna.

the all-encompassing flute sound
One day, in dream I heard one brother playing the flute. I heard him but I didn’t see him. It was a margii brother from South America who at that time was living in Sweden. It sounded very beautiful.

Once in dream someone came to me, maybe from a different planet. I was lying in bed and he came near me. It seemed like he was flying, but slowly.

pranayama
After having been a margii for about two years, I started getting very strong shiverings during my sadhana. Even when doing asanas this happened to me. It was very difficult to concentrate on my lessons or even to simply relax.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the 6th lesson
When I got the 6th lesson, there were three experiences surrounding it.
In the first one, I was dreaming that I was in India and that there was a huge DMC taking place, maybe in Ananda Nagar.

'you have a teacher...'
This incident happened when I had just started university in Wales, UK.
It was the first day and students were just moving into the dormitories or halls of residence. I didn't know anyone.

a glimpse of the future
When I was at university in Wales, I had some classes on economics and I was also interested in PROUT. The university classes were a bit depressing, so I used to read the book ‘PROUTIST Economics’ to keep me inspired.
