Yogiji 閱讀他的經文（ Yogiji Reading His Banis ）

「 Yogiji 閱讀他的經文 」 是 Yogi Bhajan 日常生活中一個非常特殊時刻的捕捉

*Soorya Kaur（ Yogi Bhajan 的工作人員）在她 2005 年寫的《 YogiJi — 我們的靈魂之光 》一書的第 21 頁上分享了這張圖片和文字。 

在一個愉悅涼爽的新墨西哥州早晨，看到 Yogiji在 牧場的草坪上深思冥想，你不會知道他特別喜歡的事情之一就是讓我們在被露水打溼的草地上做 PT（體能訓練）。 捆綁卷運動是他的最愛，我們會像原木一樣在草地上滾動。

Soorya Kaur 的書

我想感謝神賜予我很多很多的祝福，特別是感謝我的好朋友 Neesha Singh。 如果沒有她的編輯和寫作技巧，以及與生俱來的攝影覺察，我永遠不會完成這本書。 我們建立了一種夥伴關係，在極短的時間內使這本書成為現實。 

當我在研究這本書要怎麼寫的時，我的照片（我總是試圖讓他為我微笑）讓我在這裡與你分享這些親密的回憶，開啟了閘門。 如果我可以謙虛地說，我不認為這是「 我的書 」，因為 Guru Ram Das 和 Yogiji 看透了我，這本書有它自己的生命。 

很難決定是Guru Ram Das 接納了 Yogiji 還是 Yogiji 接納了 Guru Ram Das。 每天早上，當 Yogiji 在印度阿姆利則金廟進行 Seva（無私服務）清洗地板時，他都會聽到 Guru Ram Das 的 Bani（祈禱）。 在此期間，他被一次奇蹟式的靈性提升經歷所啟迪，他與Guru Ram Das的連結將永遠被封印。 Guru Ram Das 成為他和我們的贊助者古魯大師。 我們被教導要呼喚他來承擔我們的痛苦、解決我們的問題、在我們身邊，在需要時創造奇蹟，而古魯總是交付予我們。

Yogiji Reading His Banis is the capture of a very special moment in Yogi Bhajan´s daily life *This image and words from Soorya Kaur (staff member of Yogi Bhajan) were shared on pages 21 of her book,  YogiJi – The Light of Our Souls, written in 2005 .

Seeing Yogiji in deep meditation on his lawn at the Ranch on a crisp New Mexico morning, would not give you any idea that one of the things he particularly enjoyed, was to have us do PT (physical training) on the dew drenched grass.  Bundle rolls were his favorite, where we rolled across the grass like logs.

Soorya Kaur on his Book

I wish to thank God for many, many blessings, but in particular, for my good friend Neesha Singh.  I could never have done this book without her editing and writing skills, and innate sense for photography.  We forged a partnership that made this book a reality in an extremely short period of time.

While I was working on the idea of this book, my pictures (I always attempted to make him smile for me) opened a floodgate of the intimate memories that I share here with you.  If I may humbly say this, I don’t think of this as “my book”. Because Guru Ram Das and Yogiji saw me through it, and it took on a life of its own.

It is difficult to decide whether Guru Ram Das adopted Yogiji or Yogiji adopted Guru Ram Das.  Every morning he performed Seva (selfless service) washing the floors of the Golden Temple in Amritsar, India. Yogiji heard Guru Ram Das’ Bani (prayers).  During this period, he was enlightened by a miraculous spiritually elevating experience. He and his bond with Guru Ram Das was sealed forever.  Guru Ram Das became his and our patron Guru.  We learn to call upon him to take our pain, to sort out our problems, to be there for us, to produce a miracle when needed, and he always delivered.
