Several teachers and online yoga stores have come forward and given a statement, I respect that. Personally, I hope working with an independent organisation will show the light of the truth, the collaborative response team are all Kundalini Yogi’s. On sssresponseteam’s site about an ongoing investigation with An Olive Branch, it says 118 people have come forward with information. Interviews are ongoing through April and a statement to be released in June.
I joined the Premka book club on Facebook and that’s when things got real and interesting. I felt peace in the prospect of not wearing so much white. I didn’t even understand that feeling at first, it was powerful.Īt the same time I was reading my way through The Masters Touch by Yogi Bhajan (it’s a thick book, I’ve read it on and off for years and have tried to make workshops based around it.)Ī small flyer that I had kept from a white tantric event I had put in a frame with Yogi Bhajans Aquarian Age quotes on it, came down. Before my mind started turning the cogs of thoughts and options. The thing I keep going back to is that I felt relief and release in my body first. I’ve included some further reading and resources for teachers at the end of this post, with links throughout. I can relate to her twenty-year-old self, in ways we were similar, having an art practice, wanting a guide, being obedient to rules till finally the branch breaks and I.have.to.go.Īfter reading it, memories that I shrugged off, laughed sheepishly about, moments of naivety came flooding back, it must be so much worse for abuse victims and I fully recognise and respect that, I don’t want to downplay anyone.
She’s a wonderful writer and it’s a while since I read the book in a matter of days. I did a short video on my thoughts before reading the book and I hope that I can write neutrally since reading the book, much as Pamela did. I recently heard of a book called Premka, White bird in a golden cage by Pamela Saharah Dyson from a great video 40 Days of Kundalini Yoga. The discovery came as a shock and surprise with mixed feelings of not being surprised at all!
