Gratitude
Our Love and Gratitude to all those who have helped us
in this endeavour to share these messages for World Peace.
Sri Anandamayee Ma and Sri Sathya Sai Baba, who have helped us in our spiritual journey.
The Self Realisation Fellowship (SRF) USA and The Vedanta Centre USA.
Madeline ko-i Bastis for use of the phrases of the metta meditation from her book, Peaceful Dwelling: meditations for healing and living. Permission given by Charles E. Tuttle Co., Inc. of Boston, Massachusetts and Tokyo, Japan.
Thich Nhat Hanh, whose thoughts led us to incorporate the bell into our light meditation. “A bell is a bodhisattva, it helps us to wake up. Listen, listen, this wonderful sound brings me back to my true self”.
All the great masters who have inspired the light meditation.
Amar Haldipur of Sangeet Audio Visual and sound engineer Amey Londhe, for their unstinted support in the recording of the CDs.
Ravi Shankar for his album Chants of India which inspired our CD Love, Peace and Joy.
Mother of the Sri Aurobindo ashram whose thoughts inspired the Vision of Sanctuary.
A special thanks to those that dedicated their time to making Bansuri a reality.
Margaret Laulor for giving us the name Bansuri, to remind us always to be mere instruments in the hands of the Divine, doing the Divine Will. She was deeply connected to India and the idea that the journey is inward, and worked to spread this message in America.
Lalitha Krishnan, our advisor, dear friend, our inspiration and the spirit behind the Bansuri Meditation CDs. Guided by the idea of taking the teachings of Great Masters forward in a practical and interactive way, she encouraged the formation of Sanctuary where she believed many different ideas and seeds need to be planted and tested, before sharing them with the world. And it was her who coined Vishwajyoti for Vishwashanti.
The members of Sanctuary who have contributed their time and energy towards creating something beautiful.
Testimonials
“I appreciate very much the text of the meditation and I am deeply touched by the music. The best place it has found is in Unity Pavilion where are gathered the documents related to peace for the people which are interested.
Like many people, I do not feel comfortable with guided meditations but in this one I found precious elements that I can adapt to improve my own practice. I am very grateful for your offering. There is inside a quality of love that we really need.”
– A member of Auroville
