During the holiday season, whenever I recited Shri Guru Gita, verse 36 particularly resonated with me. After viewing these delightful images of Gurumayi and the Ashram residents and visitors in A Gallery in Celebration of New Year’s Day 2016, I understand why.
The translation of this verse says: “Salutations to Shri Guru, by whose reality the world is real, by whose light it is illumined, and by whose joy people are joyous.”
So beautiful, so true. Thank you, beloved Gurumayi.

Viewing the photos of Gurumayi honoring the murti of Bhagavan Nityananda reignites the flame of devotion within me. I recommit to following the path of the Siddhas with greater vigilance and love.

When I was participating in A Sweet Surprise Satsang on January 1, 2016, I imagined everything that was happening in the Universal Hall: Gurumayi speaking, the smiling faces, the global host. Today, when I saw these pictures, I was filled with joy and happiness because what I imagined earlier became real for me.
Thank you, Gurumayi, for giving us such a beautiful gift. Thank you for your Message that reconnects me to the powerful energy within. I love you.

Thank you so much for this visual "walk" through New Year’s Day 2016 in Shree Muktananda Ashram. It has been, for me, a beautiful accompaniment to Gurumayi’s Message and talk, and further reflects the infinite generosity of the grace of the Guru. To be able to participate in the live audio-stream, and then to have the exquisite darshan of the Siddha Yoga Gurus; to see the beaming, focused, joyous faces of the sevites, young Siddha Yogis, and visitors—this has felt like the most loving blessing!

While listening to A Sweet Surprise 2016, I felt that the secret of my life’s purpose unfolded and was revealed to me in Gurumayi’s Message. I am newly inspired to follow the Siddha Yoga practices no matter what arises, and to dedicate my skills and qualities to the fulfillment of my sadhana.
Thank you, Shri Gurumayi. I love you so much.

Wow! What an awesome gallery of photos of New Year’s Day at Shree Muktananda Ashram! I felt a lot of joy and love as I viewed the pictures.
Yesterday I participated in the live audio stream of A Sweet Surprise satsang. Viewing the gallery today enabled me to visualize and reconnect to my experience of Gurumayi’s presence during that satsang.
Thank you, Gurumayi, for your blessings, grace, and guidance. Thank you to the SYDA Foundation for providing this photo gallery of celebration.
