News from Shri Ganesha Puja 2023 and Book of Shri Ganesha
Dear Family,
Jai Shri Mataji!
Shri Ganesha Puja 2023
Over 30 Australian Yogis made the pilgrimage to the Holy land of Cabella this year to worship Shri Mataji in Her form as Lord Shri Ganesha.
A wonderful time was enjoyed with the World Festival leading into the Puja weekend, with havan, entertainment evening, Puja and marriages.
Congratulation to those Yuvas who were married on the weekend and to those who were engaged and will have a Sahaja wedding in the near future, we are overjoyed and we wish all the very best in your married life ahead.
Book of Shri Ganesha
One of the many highlights was a beautiful book offered during Puja containing all of Mother’s Shri Ganesha Puja talks. This to be kept in a special library at the Castle in Cabella as the first of a series of books to be published containing all of Shri Mataji’s talks. Which was something Shri Mataji had requested. Over time, all countries around the world will be able to place orders for their own copies. The Australian Council and Trust have already agreed to purchase all the books in the series for the Australian Collective.
Please also note in the letter below that there is a need for volunteers to help with book production going forward, in case you have a desire to be involved.
100th Birthday commemorative plate
We also received lovely gifts from the Italian Collective and the Indian Collective. The Italians presented a beautiful 100th Birthday commemorative plate to all the hosting countries, hand-crafted and gold lined.
The plate has been presented onward to the Canberra Collective to keep in the Canberra ashram. The Canberra Yogis had a wonderful Public Program on 27 October at the National Press Club to celebrate Shri Mataji’s life and 100th Birthday. And so it was a fitting time for them to receive this gift on behalf of Australia. Below is a photo of our Canberra Councillors holding the gift at the ashram.

The Shri Ganesha Puja book is currently being stored safely at the Canberra ashram. The Council will seek to work with the Australian Trust to find or install a suitable library area at Burwood ashram where this book and the future books in the series can be kept in a place befitting them.
Warm Regards,
The Australian Council

Subject: Book of Shri Ganesha
Dear Brett,
At the Shri Ganesha Puja in Cabella this year, a team of yogis supported by the World Foundation and Nirmala Vidya has offered a beautiful book with all the Shri Ganesha Puja talks given by our Mother.
Shri Ganesha Book being offered to Shri Mataji at Shri Ganesha Puja 2023 Cabella
A big part of the project has been to verify again the transcript of all these Shri Ganesha Puja talks from Amruta with specific guidelines.
The book is in A3 format and decorated with paintings, decorations and illuminated letters made by Sahaj artists all over the world. It also contains many photos of Shri Mataji during the specific Pujas.It has been a truly collective work made by nearly hundred yogis in the past two years.
This unique book which is with a leather cover and gold is now exposed in the new library of the Castle in Cabella.
Soon, we will make an edition available for countries, centers and yogis to buy but meanwhile the World Foundation and Nirmala Vidya has decided to let print one similar examplar in leather and gold to offer to Australia, as Australia is the Mooladhara of the world. We hope Australia will find a collective place for this book for the collectivity to enjoy and study.
We are happy to inform you that it will be brought to Australia at the end of the month by Himanshu Diwakar.
This book is the first of a collection of books with all the talks given by Shri Mataji divided by different types of pujas. We are starting now a similar book with the talks during the Shri Adi Shakti Pujas.
We hope the Australian collective will be enthusiastic to participate to this next project by helping to verify the transcripts of talks, looking for photos, share paintings and decorations and make illuminated letters.
Information about this project are to be found on the website nirmalavidyacollections.org where you can also contact us ([email protected])We desire to share with you the treasures given by our Divine Mother and in the future to express together our devotion and love for Her by realising this book collection. It is part of the Divine Heritage project for this 100th anniversary of our Mother.
May innocence, wisdom, honesty and joy spread in humanity.
All our love to the Australian collective.
We bow to Her Divine Lotus Feet .
Jai Shri Mataji
