Women are creating peace in Africa by creating havoc. Women activists for peace are spreading their message throughout West Africa as well as in Zimbabwe. For me, Africa has always been the home of my heart. Since my visit to East Africa as a young girl, I have had a longing to return. It’s been heavy on my heart the violence and poverty that continues to grow there. Although I’ve never been able to return–yet–I’ve followed the events in Africa for more than 30 years, through books, and news reports and movies, and unfortunately, the violence in Africa has only grown since the end of colonialism in the 60s and early 70s, when my parents were there.
In my heart, I’ve always known the key to changing things on the continent was through women. And now we see the evidence of that change–and how it could bring peace to Africa, and potentially around the world. Women have the power to raise righteous sons. Women have the power to mold their husbands. Women have the strength to contain their environments and create cozy, peaceful homes, and countries and worlds.
Kundalini Yoga is the power of transformation. And women are the Shakti that this technology plugs into. . . . Teacher Training is available in Togo and Ghana (West Africa) as well as South Africa through the work of dedicated pioneers like Krishna Kaur and Pritham Hari Kaur.
Through our prayer and projection, through the power of yoga, peace will come. Continue reciting Bhand Jammee-ai for peace for all women, everywhere, and may it begin at home–in your own heart.
I am interested in Kundalini practice in East Africa, somebody knows if there are classes in Rwanda, Tanzania etc..? Or somebody has information/documentation about Kundalini in Africa in general? Thank you.
Sat Nam,
There is hatha yoga in East Africa, and some Kundalini Yoga, but not much. Krishna Kaur, from LA, runs teacher trainings and programs in Togo and Ghana, West Africa. I have a friend in Minnesota who went to Kenya through a service project and taught Kundalini Yoga while she was there. I’ll try to find out if there are any remaining programs. My family lived in Tanzania in the 60s and I’ve always wanted to return and teach where they once lived. . . maybe we can plan a trip.
blessings, spkk
