Ben Salk from Brisbane, Australia talked about his YPI tours around India

and Malaysia. Starting with the YPI meeting in Malaysia in October, he

drummed up enthusiasm by showing a Powerpoint presentation of how

younger people were getting together and making things happen. After

meeting Abi in India, he decided not to go home after the events. He

toured around Malaysia and Singapore, using "a CD, a video and one body"

I recommend you logging in and reading about it!

Awanish Bharati, from New Delhi, India, talked about the magic that is

happening with the young people of India. He has been touring, much

like Ben, to meet with YPs to show them what is happening. He then

emphasized that, although he is working with the Indian people, this really

is a global movement. We are all working together towards one goal,

and with grace and technology, "geography is now becoming history".

Rowan McClean, from London, UK, spoke of an unusual (yet fun!) way

to make propagation easier. A strong group of 20-30 YPs in London

had been putting on regular events in a cinema. They came up with

the idea to throw parties that have no direct introduction to Maharaji.

By doing so, they would make an environment where it is easier to get

to know people and invite them to an event (not to mention, have a lot

of fun!). They decided give their parties a brand name, The Thirsty Fish

(check out their website: http://www.thethirstyfish.com/). Their first

party on New years Eve 2004 had about 100 attendees, and 60 attended

their second party on Valentine’s Day. Toronto, Canada soon was throwing

parties of their own! At their party, they had 50 young attendees, and

they had African drummers and salsa lesson. The North American YPs

have been talking about doing similar parties. Just getting everyone

together and having fun can do wonders!

Lauren Paul, from Providence, USA spoke about another interesting way

to expand Maharaji’s message. At Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Georgia,

USA, they offer a non-credit course of Maharaji’s message. Universities

are interested in extra-curriculum courses that will give the student a more

well-rounded college experience. Running these non-credit courses are

easy, and it only takes one inspired person! If there are 3 or 4 enthusiastic

people at the university, it’s even easier! There is a starter kit available

to anyone interested in learning how to do this. It explains each

step in the process and gives great advice on the best way to do this!

On February 28th, YPs from over 19 countries got

a remarkable opportunity to get together and take part

in a global Soulchill conference call.

Gabriel Strecker, from Germany, will soon be

releasing his website, www.soulchill.com. This

website is an exciting public site that features

event listings by major city, a talent page for young

PWKs, and latest information regarding this beautiful

world of Knowledge. This site has a fresh look

and a young audience, a perfect place to go when

looking for inspiration!

Chad Williams, from the US, spoke about his

exciting new website, whatshott.org. This website

is a funky do-it-yourself introduction to Maharaji

and his message. It is a flash site that uses a hip hop

style to offer the viewer the possibility of this Knowledge

in their life. The information is clear and direct,

explaining exactly what the purpose of the site is.

The visitor can learn more by emailing the site.

Materials will be sent to their door! This site can be fun

for PWK, too: downloadable mp3s of beats featuring

Maharaji’s voice are available in the “audio” section!

This site is not for public yet! To check it out now,

enter "whatsh2" as the username and password

when prompted.

as a mean for young PWKs to share ideas and get

inspiration. A new version is soon to be released,

developed based on people's suggestions. It will

have great new features that will increase the ability

to keep in touch with each other. The new features

include: seeing who’s online, private messaging,

search capabilities, a Spanish forum, and the ability

to link and upload images and music so materials

can be shared! Also, other PWK will be able to have

"read only" capabilities, so we can all share the

magic! If you haven’t already applied for a login

name and password, please go to the site and

do so. We have Clare Quartermaine to thank for

all her hard work on making this site possible!

A database website is in the works were YPs can

go to find out contact information of other YPs

and their skills. This database is still in the infant

stages, but we are asking everyone to send their

your name, location, talents, and a picture!

“To know that we were so far and yet so close

and that we can do so much by joining our efforts

and focussing our passion. I am sure great things

can happen this year. And lets keep working on it.”

like that was able to take place."

A special thanks goes out to Wadi for managing the call. Something she

said really stuck home to me, and that was, "Let's remember who we're

really doing propagation for- it's not Maharaji. Because of Maharaji, definitely,

but we're doing this for all those people who don't know of this incredible

possibility in their lives."

Also, thanks goes out to the organizers of the call: Ben, Janaki, Rowan

and Lauren.

In addition, they have contacted Indian High Commission to access their

contact email list. If the event is presented as entertainment, then all on

the people on the list will be invited!

her that, since he started to support the Peruvian young team, he has

seen how beautiful, inspired, and synchronized they are when we do an

event. She also emphasized the importance of having materials in

Spanish (such as a Spanish whatshott.org), so the Latin people can have

the same possibility as English speaking people.

has been going strong!

We are proposing to have a YP event with Maharaji in 2004! This proposal

is already in motion, so all your attendence and assistance is needed

to make this a possibility! We are proposing an event in Orlando,

Florida USA, sometime in August. This is an opportunity for us to bond,

create new friendships, learn what is happening around the world, come

up with strategies and goals for the future, party together and much

more. We need to present a number of attendees, so please email

ypwk@whatshott.org to say that you can make it! Keep in touch for more
