The Golden Age May/June 1977 Number 38

The Golden Age May / June 1977 Number 38 See, to space out is easy, but to come together is a challenge. And isn't that every step we take in our lives a challenge anyway? Why don't we really try to face that real challenge in our lives now? The real challenge that we are here for, to experience that Grace, to experience that beauty, to experience that Knowledge. Guru Maharaj Ji, Miami March 19,1977

2   Love At The Royal Reprinted from Divine Times "I see we have quite a representation here from the United States and outside," Guru Maharaj Ji said as he began presiding at the fourth coordinators conference in the U.S. in as many months. This one brought more than 150 coordinators together from more than 20 countries. It took place at the exclusive Royal Biscayne Resort and even the coordinators in attendance did not know where it would be held when they boarded buses that morning in front of the Algiers Hotel.
4   Maharaj Ji in Europe A tidal wave of international travellers has been landing on Australia's shores lately, bringing news and inspiration from Guru Maharaj Ji's programs in Europe and Canada. You've probably heard a lot of stories already, but just for the record, here's Cathy Starrs' version of the re-union with Maharaj Ji in Europe:

15   At The Feet of the Maestro It seems that playing music for Guru Maharaj Ji is the only event that can keep the members of One Foundation in the same place for as long as a day. On their return to Australia, Ross Hannaford, Joe Creighton and Geoff Bridgford went their various ways in Melbourne, but in Sydney we managed to capture Kim and Lindsay Field for a couple of hours and recorded this interview:
19   Service To The Ultimate Goal Excerpts from Guru Maharaj Ji's satsang at the Latin American Conference in Lima, Peru on November 18, 1976.

Prem Rawat's "Knowledge" has three parts: regularly listening to his speeches, doing voluntary work for organisations serving him or donating money and daily meditation correctly practicing the four techniques he recommends. The techniques are so simple it's hard to see how they could be practiced incorrectly. First technique ("Divine Light") involves sticking your thumb and middle finger on your eyeballs (NB: with eyes closed) and your index finger between your eyebrows. Second technique: ("Heavenly Music") poking your thumbs into your ears and listening. Third technique: ("Holy Name") thinking about your breathing (NB: continue to breathe). Fourth technique: ("Nectar") curling your tongue backwards and tasting. Rawat's father taught slightly different techniques but either way it's difficult to see how these could produce the benefits claimed for them especially as Rawat claims His Knowledge is the only method of attaining real happiness and love in this life.
