Beloved Erhard,

Love.

Thank you for your letter.

Now is not the right time for you to receive another mala. The way you have been behaving is not the way of a sannyasin. Instead of thinking about sannyas it would be better for you to start taking responsibility for yourself and sorting out the practical matters in your life. Perhaps it would be good to get some professional guidance.

His blessings,
Ma Anand Sheela

Beloved Erhard,

Love.

We have received your letter for Bhagwan.
However, now is not the time for a new mala.
"Accept yourself, that is prayer.
Accept yourself, that is gratitude.
Relax into your being."

Beloved Erhard,

Love.

Thank you for your letter.
You can talk with Ramateertha at Wioska, and when it is the right time he can give you another mala.

His blessings,

Handwritten Postcard from the Bishop of Cologne, Swami Ramateertha,  in 5000 Cologne:

 

 

"Lieber Sudesh,

ich würde Dich bitten,
einfach in der kommenden
Woche (13.1. - 20.1.) vorbei
zu kommen. Ruf einfach
kurz vorher an (57407-31/30),
damit wir uns nicht verpassen.

Love

Ramateertha"

"Love Sudesh,

i would like to beg you,  to come in the following week... just phone before, that we don't miss us..  "

 

 

I went like told. Bishop of Cologne, Swami Ramateerthe, hugged me, gave a Plastic-Mala back. So I enjoyed again my full membership in the Cult.
