OM Choir in Russia

February 26, 2005


A few nights ago I had the strong impression of a voice saying, 'There must be an OM Choir in Russia.' I felt this to be exactly true, the next step in the progression of OM Choirs throughout the world chanting their aspiration to the Divine for the descent of the New Music and the New World. But, how to begin this choir?


The next morning I was walking on the Ashram street near the Post Office and a young man, Dimitri, approached me. He said, 'We would like to begin an OM Choir in Russia. Would you help us?' Last night the members of a group from Russia that had come with Dimitri joined the adult voice class and we sang OM together. Russia is the 'soul' of choral song and the intensity and sincerity with which they offered their profound prayer surely was the beginning of the OM Choir in Russia.
