Maharaji was joking that there was a Krishna statue that through an inside job, had a change of clothes, and found itself dressed in perfectly fitting Jeans, a western shirt and a cell phone.

 He said it was not well received by the indian devotees, and they must have wanted only telepathy, not telephonie.

He said technology was tailor made for us, and very soon wants it so when an event happens you can immediately pick it up on your iphone, cell, laptop etc. Words of Peace Global was a Gift to us, (from the powers that be) for our efforts, to make the events accessible to anyone, anywhere. M is extremely confident of this strength of Knowledge to work its magic.

The transition is moreso inherent, within us to just manifest our experience, not so much to try and convince, for this experience does speak for itself in terms of energetic radiance.

 The warmth of this love is obvious, its source is as a river within, of its own accord it flows, rushes forth from the heart, to us, surrounding and encompassing.

 When we individually or collectively get to the point, where that feeling is paramount, not thought, not logic, reasons, questions, but when something else takes over, and we can feel that acceptance as simply as an open conduit, then we have reached that simplicity, that natural order, where we are more then what we appear, more then what we think, more ... for we have risen levels above, and now our perspective rises higher and higher, and we see with the eyes of the supreme within, and we breathe with that force.

 Now it is not just that which we ignore, but now there is a focus, for it seems to enter us differently, with more verve, enlivening, awakening, the dream stops, the inconsequential finishes, and we remember, again, that something is going on here with our life, that is much much more then all our chores, and responsibilities, worries, and everything on that to do list.

The sun arises, we can see it, we can actually taste the sweetness, the purity of the water, we are in an accord that unites us.

That union establishes itself within, like God coming to sit down in the armchair of your heart.

It is not imagination, or hope, it is solid, and light enters your cells, and you are strong, for you have affiliated, aligned with grace, and you become the smallest part of, but by doing so, you enter the ocean ... of the infinite.

This is what we are born to recognize. Coming home within becomes the most comfortable, the most safe, the most loving act.

Not moving from where you sit, you close your eyes and expand, past the boundaries of limitation, you are set free.

The world cannot disturb this understanding, it is your foundation, your central core from which all is born, is now and goes back to. How important is this to you? Do you have a thirst to know this reality? Everything outside will change, but within you that stillness, that love, that beauty, can be your constant. When this kindness surfaces, entering your veins, there is nothing else you want to feel. Nowhere to go, but deeper into this embrace. So stop for some moments, and retreat back to yourself.

Sometimes you get so blown away, you need to pull over, for it is so strong, that it actually pulls you over.

That is what is happening, besides the endless news of this and that, and that and this and ever ending barrage of trivia, take a little space to enter the timeless, the measureless, the incomprehensible, the indomitable, the bliss of this knowing, and the absolute excitement of having a master who reminds us to enter this stream and just go swimming.

This just in from Jule Lawson, Corleone, Italy: 1:43 am

"Corleone is a small town. The bus ride, from Palermo, took a little more than an hour and the route was lined with grapevines, hayfields, mountains, and a picturesque countryside. Grown men, baling and stacking hay, waved at our bus -- the way children wave to train engineers in rural areas.

The Corleone town square, named for two men, many years ago, who were shot for standing up to the Mafia, was smaller than a football field. The local organizers said the event could have been held indoors, but they wanted it in the open air so everyone in town could attend.

 It started late, about 8:45 PM and the hall was very hot.
 Everyone was fanning themselves with the programs and
 anxious to
 see Maharaji.

He walked down the center isle to a huge  welcome
 and then sat in the front row while the MC introduced the
 politicians and Maharaji in Italian. I was sitting next to
 Jorge from Spain and every once in a while he would tell us what
 the MC was saying and it was all very formal. The Mayor of Palermo
 was there the Minister of Justice was there and the Mayor of
 Corleone was also there.

 They all spoke in Italian and there weren't many
 headsets from Italian to English so not sure what was said
 but there was a lot of applause.

 When Maharaji was introduced everyone stood and gave him
 extended applause.

He began by talking about how many reasons people
 couldgive as to why it was impossible for there to be peace. He
 said if you were really good you may come up with 10. If you
 were really, really good you may come up with 100 reasons why
 there could not be peace in the world. Then he said he could come
 up with 6.7 billion reasons why we need peace. That's the
 population of the world, rounded off.

 Then he said that when he reads something or hears
 something that he likes, he takes it and makes it his own. He doesn't
 care if you're a hindu, a muslim, a christian or an atheist, ifhe likes
 it, it's his. So he read something he really liked and
 this is what it is; if you are strong, you should be kind; if you
 are smart, you should be simple; if you are wealthy, you should
 be humble. Then he described how nations should adhere to
 this. The
 strong nations should be kind, the wealthy nations should
 be humble and the smart nations should be simple. He used
 examples for each but the main one was it was simple to make sure
 people  had enough to eat and enough fresh water to drink and that
 is his effort with The Prem Rawat Foundation. He also said that
 having enough to eat was not an option, having water to drink was
 not an option and having peace in your life is not an option,
it's a necessity.
 There was a large screen behind him and you could see the
 perspiration on his forehead as he was speaking.

He only wiped his eyebrows once and in a very unobtrusive manner but as
 soon as he finished speaking he took out a handkerchief and wiped his
 brow. It was really hot in the room and I'm sure he would have
 spoken longer if it hadn't been so uncomfortable,

 but he spoke for about 25 minutes (I'm guessing). It was beautiful
 and very  politically correct and they gave him some awards and the
 Mayor of Corleone mentioned they were going to give him the key
 to the city.

Before we knew it, it was over and we all shuffled out into
the night where it was hot but a lot cooler than in the Teatro
Massimo.

He said a whole lot more but this is what I
remember right now.
