Paul, It certainly was a special event. I was impressed with all the people who attended that had never had a “ONE BLESSING” before. It really inspires me to see people coming for the first time and also intrigues me at how they chose to come and what they expected. There was a special energy, a cohesive / synergy that everyone seemed to share, whether for the first time or not, but it permeated the entire room. I felt a connection with everyone present and to have seven providers present was a compliment to your endeavors. I sensed that in the near term a larger meeting place will be needed. I was completely at peace and flowing in the spirit as everyone else was. I could see the twinkle in their eyes afterwards. Saturday, I felt at peace with myself and stayed in the present the entire day, meditating and preparing for my journey to India. I am truly looking forward to being a part of this great movement of God [Bhagavan refers to it as God-realization] and assisting in any area where I can best be utilized. Let me know if I can help you in any way possible. Namaste.
Paul’s reply: Thank you for your kind and thoughtful comments. Yes, I think a larger space may be required as our efforts grow. And Thank You for choosing to go to India for the 21-Day Process… and to help in the transformation of all mankind into the realization of the Golden Age. I know that is not everyone’s journey, but it has seemed to be your destiny since the first conversation that I had with you some time ago. And Thank You for offering your assistance… the OB facilitators in the DFW area have a history of working together for the betterment of all… and I want you to know that all of us here will be helping you in any way that we can. Namaste.

Dear Paul, Thanks for your very kind words. As you know, I find the so many aspects of Oneness Blessing to be fulfilling for me: the privilege of giving the Oneness Blessing, the wonderful participants and the kindness and support you’ve given me from the very beginning. For me, each Oneness Blessing event contributes to an all over sense of spiritual growth. The upside is an all over sense of joy and fulfillment; the downside even from the beginning has been to adapt to the differentials in energy. The message for me is, “slow down,” “don’t worry,” “just let things happen.” But I must admit that it’s disconcerting at times to be a bit “foggy,” lacking for words and mental acuity– not being able to give quick responses as is the cultural norm. What really helps is the Awakening Into Oneness DVD’s. These show the insightful and deliberate speech of Bhagavan and his followers. I’ve seen them pausing, turning inward, and with deep humility tell how their experience has been for them. They provide a model of a way to be as the process deepens.
I’m so pleased that it’s possible that Buddha and Bhavani will return to Dallas in October. My intent on their June 29th visit was for a healing on the left side of my body, pains in my hip and legs. Buddha then gave me the Oneness Blessing. That night I went into a very deep sleep and there is a marked diminishment of pain. So I feel deeply grateful for this and to be a part of a movement that promises the coming evolution in human consciousness.
Paul’s reply: I agree that it has been and continues to be a real blessing for those of us whos’ life journey has included going to India and then returning to give the Oneness Blessing. While I acknowledge that road is not for everyone, it has been our journey and I too feel so blessed for this opportunity. I can also relate to the varying energy levels as this all progresses…
At our next One-Day Intensive on Saturday, July 21st, I will be introducing the new set of DVD’s just made available for the first time in late May. We will be watching the first of the four DVD’s at that time. Each of them is 90 minutes long so we can only watch one each time we meet for our One-Day event. As you know, the production values are first rate in these DVD’s and the information that Bhagavan and Amma impart is priceless.
I’m really happy that Bhavani and Buddha will be returning in fall. I’m so happy to be sharing them with all our friends here in Dallas. They are truly some special people! I’m also happy that your pains are subsiding. Thank You for all you do to help humanity move forward through our evolution in consciousness… to become God-realized. Namaste.

Paul, The energy was incredible there. I felt a twitching on my third eye before the blessings started. After the photography, I saw my own inner-light happen. It was very profound. I am planning on attending the Deeksha [21-Day Process] in October. I am working on pulling it together now. Jane said to pay the deposit and watch miracles happen. So, I’m doing it in faith. Thank you for the blessings and the magical event.
Paul’s reply: We had about six people present that night who have expressed a sincere desire to go to India for the 21-Day Process. Jane was right in telling you to send in your application. It proves “intent” to the universe and things that you need to happen just happen! This was my journey as well… I had no idea where the money would come from… I had not a clue… and after I finally sent in my application, the necessary funds just appeared one day… it just happened… and just in time for me to be able to go. It was all kind of magical. On Sunday, July 22nd [the day after our One-Day Intensive], we will be having an informal get-together for OB facilitators and for anyone who is sincerely interested in going to India for the training… regardless if it’s for this year or next. I will let you know more soon… and if you know anyone else who is considering going to India, please have them contact me so that I will be able to include them in my special email about this. Many Thanks for your comments and for your dedication to help humanity through the transformation into the Golden Age. You’re gonna love what this does for you! Namaste.

Paul, I’m glad to hear that the event was a success and that both Bhavani and Buddha had a pleasurable and delightful experience. We’ll look forward to having them/you at SFC in the Fall for another Oneness Blessing Celebration.
While I was not able to participate during the main event, I do very much appreciate you all taking the time to provide me with Oneness (Deeksha) Blessings after everyone left for the night. My experiences…..hmmm, during the event I felt that things were pleasant for me up front in the office (must have had some of the positive Deeksha Blessing vibes travel up my direction).
During my personal Blessing, I have to admit I had a sort of Wow experience. Bhavani asked me to keep my eyes closed during the blessings. I did. However, after three of you gave me your blessings I slightly opened my eye lids to see if another person was going to come forward to give me another blessing. My eye lids were barely cracked, making my vision very hazy through my eye lashes. Anyway, since it the room lights were dimmed I could barely see - like looking through a very heavy mist. Well, the white outfits that you all were wearing seemed to shimmer. It reminded me of a surreal picture seeing three entities standing still about 4 to 6 feet away from me. All I could recognize was three bodies from the waist down. Sort of mysterious and it added to the moment. Pretty neat.
The rest of the evening for me, after receiving the Deeksha Blessing, was a calming and joyous evening and I slept like a little baby that night. Thank you for taking the time after you all were giving Deeksha for over an hour to add me, on the spur of the moment, to the list of those receiving such blessings. Blessings to you, Bhavani and Buddha and the rest of the Deeksha Givers!
Paul’s reply: We were Honored to be able to serve you in that way. You are our Blessing… so Thank You! Namaste.

Paul, Thank you so much for the privilege to participate in the Oneness Blessing (Deeksha). I have known about Deeksha since you first introduced it to me [in early 2006]. Last Friday night I felt absolutely compelled to be there and I left absolutely convinced it was where I was supposed to be. I was planning on bringing a date and when she backed out, as awkward as it was to postpone the date, I knew I had to be there. I had a feeling it was going to be extraordinary.
It was very refreshing to experience such a clean (dogma free) moment and to be beautifully set at ease by environment and structure (eyes closed etc.). I felt movement of energy from the first hands laid on my head to well into Monday morning. At times I felt a bit ungrounded and like I was hooked up to a low voltage battery. Nothing unpleasant, yet sometimes intense. I have been sharing my experience with anyone I meet with an ear to hear. I look forward to the next opportunity available to experience Deeksha… The euphoria of peace is addictive… Thank God! And Thank You…
Paul’s reply: Thank you for your thoughtful comments. I’m happy that you finally found your way to a Oneness Blessing experience. I knew that it was only a matter of time… and for each of us, we experience it when we are ready. It’s all OK. And I’m also very happy that you were able to attend when seven of us were present to provide you with the Oneness Blessing. That Friday was the first time that has happened in Dallas and you were there to experience it. It is obviously helping you on your own spiritual path, which I’m aware that you have been on for quite some time now. It’s all good. The wonderful thing about this Oneness Movement (via the Oneness Blessing) is that you don’t have to change, follow, become devotional, etc. for this to work. Of course, if you do those things that’s perfectly OK… but you don’t have to. You don’t have to change anything, including the spiritual path that you’re on. As you say, “no dogma.”
The physical experience that you recount is not unusual… but we do each experience our own version of the transformation… and each unique form is valid and appropriate for the person experiencing it. It’s all just processing, after all. Our own personal journey / transformation into the Golden Age. Thank You for sharing with others… You are now Their blessing! We’re now back to our normal Wednesday evening Oneness Blessing from 7:30PM to 9:15PM at the Spiritual Fitness Center. We are also having our once monthly One-Day Intensive on Saturday, July 21st from 10AM to 5PM. Participation for that is by pre-registration by emailing me at paul@deeksha-dallas.com to let me know that you want to attend. Details on this and the other Oneness Blessing events going on Monday and Tuesday evenings at other locations are available at www.deeksha-dallas.com,… click on “Oneness Blessing Events” at the top of the screen. We always have the latest information on local DFW events there. Many Thanks and I hope to see you again soon. Namaste.
