As a continuation of the Southern Tour:
At an open venue on July 23 there was held a concert of the city of Gelenjik (Krasnodar Region) in the rest-house “Caucasus” on the coast of the Black Sea. The viewers started occupying their seats I 40 minutes before the performance. There were about 70 people at the concert – all of them got their self-realization.
It had been raining during two days before the concert – there was thunder, hail and lightning but the next morning a strong wind drove all the clouds away. For the first time, at a concert, during the bhajan “Vishva Vandita” the audience was applauding as if qawwali was being performed!
After the concert people were taking pictures with us and asked us to show them some of the elements of the Indian dance Kuchipudi. Sahaja Yogis of Gelenjik and Novorossiysk helped us greatly with the organization of the concert.

We were given 30 minutes on the stage and a table for mehendi that was working during the whole program.
As the people who gathered were aiming at ethno music, we began with potpourri of popular melodies of different nations and an instrument composition based on the bhajan “Maste Calandar” – all this fit well into the evening format. Then two bhajans were performed and between them there was Self-realisation protocol .
The audience was listening to the music attentively. At least Read the rest of this entry »
