Guruji ushered a breeze of love, knowledge and shakti in the Windy City. The Hilton Chicago, the venue of the event, throbbed with his presence and the purity of a huge advance course, the Guru Poornima celebrations, a YES course and the ongoing TRM. Guruji stayed at the south
imperial suite, which we devotees would inevitably refer to as kutir, and Bhanu didi, arvind and ajay were with him. Devotees came from all over the US, Canada, Brazil and Argentina. Blissful bustle marked the celebrations, with every elevator crammed with devotees. The buttons pushed were not all found on the elevator panel, but all the smallness fell aside in the magnificent satsang and Guruji's discourse on the eve of the celebration.He spoke on the Guru principle, whose excellent verbatim transcript can be found here. Nearly 3000 devotees meditated, sang and celebrated in the beautifully-decorated, grand ballroom.
Once the satsang had reached a crescendo, Guruji asked - "How many of you are confused? That is good - do you know confusion is a sign of intelligence. Only intelligent people can get confused.
A Guru's job is not to convince, it is to ? confuse :). Good good good". And then the joy of satsang continued.
Guruji travels to LA and Montreal in the coming weeks.
Jai Gurudeva!

@Shripa: are you sure about your divnity?
JGD ! Great post and great pics ! Do share more....
of course 'I AM' sure about my Divinity, because 'I AM' :P
@RR: thanks, surely will share soon
@shripa: Alas, the 'I AM; is the final barrier between you and the divine.
'I AM' is the closest I can come to expressing divinity with words :P
If I remained silent, and tried expressing through silence, you'd think, I did not comment :D
@Shripa: Those who know do not say it and those who say it should be ignored...My argument rests
Good post. I too was overwhelmed by gratitude on gurupoornima day. It was such a nice feeling.
@AB and Shripa:
