“This [Satsang on July 15th] was a really excellent discussion about the Master (Louix Dor Dempriey), and Markus is always a joy to listen to. The meditation was really wonderful, and the more people I meet who come to this group, the more I feel at home… I am so looking forward to meeting Louix… it’s going to be life changing!!!”

– L. Burlington

 “…lots of sharing from Markus. We watched some video material and got a good insight into what Darshan will be like on Saturday!”

– S. Fire

“As soon as people started to arrive … I saw these radiant, expectant faces and my heart melted, time and time again.  Many were there … without a clue as to what they were getting into, they came with open hearts … I knew from the get-go it would be a gorgeous evening … As He led us in a short but powerful meditation, the whole room started buzzing. Then, one by one, each participant was invited to sit at Pranananda’s feet and receive a gift most will never experience—a one-on-one moment with a truly God-realized being.”

 – K. Courtney

“He touched some of us in areas like our third eye and heart chakra. Others received verbal messages—things like spiritual names and past life connections. He delivered the absolutely perfect blessing for each person. And the reactions to these transmissions were just as varied. Some cried openly. Others shook from shaktipat. Several folks needed help walking back to their chairs; they were so overtaken by the power of the experience.”

– K. Courtney

“I had the best view in the house. The entire time, I stood back surveying the scene … I watched it all with awe and reverence …  I felt so utterly magical, so full of the energy of love. As the hours wore on, many of us couldn’t stop grinning and hugging each other. There was absolutely no denying the power of this night, of Pranananda, and of our own ability to be love.”

– K. Courtney

“What can I say? This was the most amazing experience I have ever had! I knew I was connected to Louix before I met him. This night confirmed what a profound connection I have with this amazing being. I know my life experiences will be forever changed because of this event.”

– B. Smith

“It was absolutely an amazing experience! I have run across people who claim to be ‘gurus,’ etc. and I am always discerning. However, Louix (Pranananda) is the real deal.” 

– M. Reed

A Magical Essential Oil Called “Thieves”

I would like to share with the world the magic, wonder, and healing power of a truly amazing essential oil, called “Thieves.” Like some, I was at first turned off by what sounded to Me like a dark or negative name, whereas everything carries an energetic imprint, including names of products. However, once I learned why this oil was given this name, I was able to let go of any concerns about the name, recognizing that the distributors were using the oil’s legacy as part of their marketing… all well and good, you might say. The important thing is what this oil can do. Rather than repeat, it is best and easiest for you to simply go to this link (see below) and read for yourself. I have been using this oil for years, and I highly recommend it to become part of everyone’s standard apothecary (medicine bag). Travel with it, too. It will be a lifesaver… in some cases, literally! I also apply Thieves oil to the soles of My feet and to My children’s feet—when we travel, during flu season, when around people who have major colds or infections. It will help keep your kids healthy when their classrooms are full of runny noses and infections, and it does the same for you when your roommates and office workers are sneezing and coughing all around you.

On a side note, clove oil (the main ingredient in Thieves) is one of the best remedies for toothaches, when applied directly onto the gums around the ailing tooth. This oil is quite potent, though, and may be difficult for small children and some adults, so use carefully and sparingly.

Here’s to your improved health… with My love and eternal blessing…

Announcing “Enlivened Spirit” Meetup Group

In late May 2009, the Louix Dor Dempriey Foundation opened the majority of its events to the public. Soon thereafter, our Public Relations crew launched Enlivened Spirit Meetup Group, an online social networking website that advertises group meetings around the world.

The link for Enlivened Spirit is http://www.meetup.com/Enlivened-Spirit-Meetup-Group.

Recent Events at Prema Drala Ashram

On April 12th, the ashram held its Annual Spring Gardens Ceremony and Celebration at the Sanctuary. Pranananda began the event with an opening prayer. This took place as the gardens were in peak bloom. During the prayer ceremony, Pranananda invoked the Nature spirits, celestial beings, and God’s blessing upon all our new endeavors for this year, honoring the season and the energies of Spring, and creating a divine union and synergy with all of heaven and earth to empower and bring forth quantum growth, harmony, beauty, and success in all areas of our lives. After the prayer ceremony, we enjoyed a bountiful brunch in the gardens, followed by several hours of devotional singing and communing with one another. As part of His annual tradition, the Master took camera in hand and personally photographed all the many flowers and plants which He spends much of His time caring for throughout the year.

From April 17th – 19th, the men of Prema Drala Ashram went on a vision quest to Anza-Borrego Desert. They fasted the entire weekend, meditated privately, and took hikes in the desert wilderness, taking in all of its beauty. During the evening they had a fire ceremony and jam session which lasted late into the night. They began the following day with a Mayan sun salutation led by Guruji before their long trek to a mountainside of glacial boulders, where each man picked a secluded cave wherein he would contemplate in silence for the next 10 hours. Pranananda led the men back to the camp in the late afternoon. That evening the silence was broken, and the men recounted their experiences of the day around a crackling fire under the stars.

As part of our Grace in Action service projects, on Earth Day (April 25th) our community joined about 60 people for tree planting at Doheny State Beach, in Dana Point. Whilst replanting the campground and campfire center with an assortment of 20 native Californian trees and shrubs, they were able to make new friends, spend time in nature, and help source the earth—a perfect day!

On April 26th, 22 disciples and guests gathered at the La Serra home for an afternoon Q&A session with Pranananda. Initially He led a guided meditation that opened people’s hearts. Afterwards, Pranananda cleverly gave His enlightened perspective on a range of topics, from healing cancer to twin flames. After the event, many people thanked Pranananda and expressed their gratitude for having heard Divine truth and understanding.

On May 30th, Pranananda’s long-time friend Dr. Gabriel Dery and his wife, Marina, hosted the ashram for an evening of devotional singing at their exquisitely decorated home in San Juan Capistrano. Some songs brought people to their feet and they were dancing with joy; others, such as “Hari Om,” brought in an intense energy, leaving people divinely intoxicated. On July 7th, we celebrated Guru Purnima with an evening of devotional singing at one of the ashram homes.

On August 1st, Louix gave darshan to over 60 people at Prema Drala Ashram. Prema Drala’s own kirtan group, Pranam, played devotional music quietly in the background as each person came before the Master to receive His personal blessing.

Louix’s First Public Event in Las Vegas

A growing community of spiritual seekers in Las Vegas invited Louix to their city for the first time during the second week of July. Kitty Courtney and Sean Brown, who lead several spiritual groups in Las Vegas, graciously hosted Louix and a team from Prema Drala Ashram for a series of events at their home in Henderson. Eighty-five people came to receive Louix’s blessing, which, for many, invoked profound transformation and exalted states of bliss.

Taking the Next Step…

In the first half of 2009, the Louix Dor Dempriey Foundation has been creating many new opportunities to share the love and wisdom Louix has already brought to so many. For example, in just the last few months we have established a series of ongoing public events with Louix, such as Darshans, Evening Meditations, Q&A’s, and (our newest program) Teleconference Calls; as well as Satsangs, Community Service, and nights of Devotional Singing.

Since the Foundation’s incorporation in 2007, our dedicated team of volunteers has focused on creating the formal infrastructure for this ministry (which began in 1996). We are happy to announce that these efforts have culminated in the recent submission of our petition for non-profit status! We are now in the final stages of creating the legal framework to officially launch the Foundation and its fundraising efforts. One aspect of this is the design and printing of the Foundation’s first full-color brochure. To accomplish these goals, which will expand the Foundation’s capacity to serve in even more far-reaching ways, we are first reaching out for financial support to those who have been part of our spiritual family over the years, in order to raise the funds necessary to complete this phase of our growth.

We count on those like you, whose lives have been blessed by this ministry—as well as upon those who share and believe in our mission—to help us fulfill our goal in service to humanity. With utmost gratefulness, we thank you for being part of this vision and for helping us to share Louix’s love and teachings with the world. It is your loving and generous contributions which enable us to touch the hearts of people far and wide.

We shall keep you apprised of the exciting new developments within the Louix Dor Dempriey Foundation as they happen. God bless you.

In loving service,

Mirianna
