Day 1 – Start of 2013 South East Asia Tour
All of us have been anticipating this journey and feeling the affects of Shri Purnima, as have the Chinese people…the vibrant and energetic full moon…Harvest Moon Festival!
Have’nt felt this way for many moons….;
as collectively we have moved through some major obstructive milestones of evolution to enlightened new heights
What a time to enjoy being together again!
To farewell us at the airport were Paul Worsfold and Aunty Diana! Fully loaded up with excess luggage yet the always limited weight allowance, Mother removed the obstacles to lighten the load and avoid extra costs… And finally we got going, full of joy in our hearts and excitement racing!
Every part of the plane flight or bus trip was an opportunity to rest, laugh, sing and share stories in complete joy
On the first leg of the tour, travelling from Sydney to Singapore…
Singapore airport, what to do??? …chill, eat, coffee, massage, swim, sleep, enjoy. Much to do, in time too less!
Next flight to Taipei was deep sleep and snoring….
Arrival in Taipei was a mini maya. At 5:00am, Mother couldn’t have chosen a better moment to test our faith! Merenia having to Jump ship, so to speak, as she initially made an error when booking so therefore was not allowed to disembark her flight and was destined to Tokyo… Mother removed all her doubts and weaved the way to cruise through customs…
Upon arrival in Taipei, a piece of luggage lost, yet inner faith gained for Angela to grow in detachment from her beloved bag!
Welcoming smiles and open hearts from humble hosts refreshed us as we were greeted with Mother’s Love pouring out from our Taiwanese family!
The anticipation of joy vibrating through the bus as we drove to Taichung centre was enlivened, as we reconnected as one by imbibing the Ganesha Atharvashesha and cooling our right sides! …our lunch was ha ha sche(delicious in Chinese) !
So much laughter and joy to lift our weary abodes and was much needed as we got to our hotel room and a much needed horizontal sleep… a maha power nap!!!
The concert was like a puja, many seekers with radiant smiles, reflectors of the divine source. A few returned from last year’s tour.
The music combination of harmony, uniting hearts
This Joy will ne’er part,
With love,
Arohanunui Merenia
