Dearest Manorama,

How can I begin to thank you for the week long retreat at Omega where we dove deeply into Self study.  The traditions, symbology, mysticism and metaphors of the Gods & Godesses has opened yet another door for me to enter deeper into the hidden mystery that lies within mySelf.  This power - our power - represented through God's and Godesses allows me to be able to reach for its potential by allowing my mind to grasp the many facets and layers of the infinite source that abides in all things.
Your wit and humor, as is your style, made it utterly enjoyable and yet the exercises and periods of silence kept my mind on point at all times.    By the 5th day of the retreat, I was so saturated in the teachings, I felt as if I was floating on neutrality.  

These are just words - the feelings could never be conveyed through them - but know that I truly appreciate all of the love and effort and self sacrifice you give to these teachings.  Because of them, I am able to find more ways to keep the mind saturated in Self study and Self awareness.

Love to you always,
Nirmala NYC

Dear Manorama-ji,

I've been meaning to write you a note--THANK YOU so much for the amazing experience on Sunday. It truly was an "experience", not just a class or a workshop. All the students who attended were transformed just by being in your presence and hearing your beautiful descriptions of Guru-ji's teachings. 

Personally, I've had a very small amount of Sanskrit education, and I felt that what I learned from you resonated with me strongly, and took root strongly, than other experiences. Your introduction to the topic was very tender and gentle, and you gave us a real spiritual context for the study. You took what I thought was going to be a rather dry topic and made it utterly transformative, delightful, and absorbing.

We would love to have you back again so that we can all continue to grow in our Sanskrit sadhana.

Yours truly,

Emma South Mountain Yoga Director

Manorama Ji,

What a delight is was to have you at Yogaphoria this weekend...

you really made quite an impression on everyone!

 
Let me know if you have dates open at the end of the year...

I'd love to have you back for the next level.

And, I'd love to have you join us again in one of our training  weekends next year...

Love! Sue

Dearest Ma,

I just wanted to thank you so much for this past weekend at Dallas Yoga Center. My husband (Rick, from the back of the room by the exit!) keeps saying, “Remember what Manorama said…” And I do.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to sit in your presence when you come to Dallas. I would come to every program in every city, if I could. Just like I did after Sanskrit Level I, I feel as if layers upon layers of mental and emotional debris have been cleared away. I get lost, repeatedly, and then your words come back to me, and I remember my Self.

I am always hesitant to come speak to you, because I cannot think of a question or even a sentence. When I am listening to you talk, I have the feeling of remembering what I have always known, but somehow I forgot. All I can say is thank you.

I will continue to study, to answer the questions in the packet for myself and to practice the alphabet and the Sutras. I look forward to seeing you and studying with you again. You are always with me.

Much love and warm pranams,

Lizzie

Hi Manorama,

Thanks for taking the time to see where it is. I appreciate it. The resonance of your voice with the Sanskrit pronounced so eloquently and accurately will be a true treasure to soak up.
My wife and I are in the midst of a Yoga Teacher Training with Jan Henrickson. It will be such a special treat to spend a weekend with you for the last weekend of our training.

In Love,
David

Learning Sanskrit from Manorama is like immersing in the sacred sound that emanates from the conch of Arjuna. She awakens one to the healing sounds of Sanskrit and the songs of chanting in a profound way.

Rodney Yee & Colleen Yee, May 2007

Manorama is amazing. In a matter of a few hours, she had Sanskrit illiterates singing the praises of Shiva. Our training students had the time of their lives learning their A's, EE's and UU's with Manorama.

Manorama,
I just wanted to thank you again for being so generous with you teaching and spirit. You added something so special to our teacher training that touched all of us. It was an honor to have you join us. I look forward to studying with you personally and with our students in future trainings.
