Dear Sangha,
 
The Gangaji Sangha website is a community site that The Gangaji Foundation is using to test live video streaming and various social networking features.  Many of the features that we are testing on this site will migrate to the new Gangaji Foundation website that is currently under development.  We are all very excited about this new community site and are especially excited to offer you the live video streaming! It is truly incredible that on November  8th  we will all be able to come together from around the world to participate in the upcoming satsang that will deeply inquire into the new video: Standing in the Truth of Who You Are.  Wow! Wow! Wow!
 
If you have an questions about how to use various features on the site, or ff you have any ideas or thoughts about this website that you would like to share with everyone please post them below. We are making every effort to provide the support you need to register and participate fully in this website.  We are all very very very excited about this new venue for communicating with all of our sangha friends around the world! Please let us know what you think. Your feed back is greatly appreciated!

I tried the live broadcast on sat 8 nov (from the Netherlands). It is very intimate and special to join live in the meeting. However, I was not able to follow the talks because most of the time the broadcast stopped and I could only hear fragments of the talks.  
I appreciate this website very much and I think much inspiration can follow from here.

The new site is great, but I couldn't find the live streaming password that was supposed to be in an email... :cry. Is this "feature" necessary? Was sad to miss the meeting. Namaste, Lisa

I stayed with it to the end, despite the frequent stops. It was wonderful to see Barb's dear face, and then Gangaji herself, so beautiful and serene sitting in stillness. And what a delight to see and listen to Kenny too. I got the gist of what most people were saying, and certainly the spirit. What came across most of all was simply the extraordinary love radiating from every face, and the light that comes with it (or is perhaps it). I was thrilled to hear Gangaji speaking about Barack Obama. I think we over here in the UK are if anything even more pleased about it than you are! Many people have commented, if only we had politicians like that, orators like that... Yes, there were lots of technical problems - I had some trouble actually getting in to the site, and my experience was as others have described. But let's hope these can be overcome. It was still amazing to feel that as I sat in my room, with the rain lashing against the windows, a gale blowing in the darkness outside, there you all were, and there was my beloved Gangaji, at the very same moment, sitting all together. Thank you so much for all your hard work in making this possible. With love, Katharine

I also found that the video/audio was fragmented but utilized this time to be with what was arising, no video, no audio, no matter. Love was present and deeply felt, thank you so much to those of you who made this new way of being together a reality. Bless you. Lorraine

I looked forward to watching this event. As others have said, the quality was not great--lots of stop and go moments. I had to log back on at a couple of points. I have 512 megabytes of RAM and not the fastest of internet connections. However, when I watched Obama on Ustream from his website Tuesday night (when he gave his acceptance talk), I had far fewer technical problems than with today's event. Perhaps it was the time of day? Anyway, I appreciate the fact that you're making live streaming available to us.

To all who made this streaming video possible, Thank you Thank you! Despite a few technical glitches, I was able to watch and hear almost the entire satsang and I hope that we can meet this way again! My love goes out to all and To Gangaji, Beloved mountain of joy, You are the deepest report of my heart. Thank you

thank you for this live web event! thank goodness I was able to access it after jumping a few hurdles. The first one was not having password, etc. for logging on set up prior to showtime. I wish I had known about that...like maybe someone could have mentioned it in the invitation and reminder e-mails? I'm sure friends of mine ran into the same bump. After finally and with a flash of insight finding the new password in "spam" of all places...at last the connection was possible. And it was o.k....broke up sometimes, but with cable broad band it was pretty good. A friend with wireless broadband couldn't watch, because of frequent break-ups. Will the video be available & downloadable later? I'm asking for her. Then..last technical comment...whatever you do don't grab a bite to eat while blogging...the darn thing will time out on you and you'll find out only after writing your once ever little gem. So a little up front advice on that would make for more friendly computing. thanks for listening.

Thanks so much for getting this streaming going. Four of us were watching in Hillsborough, North Carolina, and I felt very heart-connected as Gangaji began to speak about the results of the election. I am so grateful for the support from Gangaji and all of you this fall in looking to find in myself the wisdom that does not separate from those who vote differently from myself, and yet supported also to find the part of myself that in great joy was able to act in the campaign process for what I wanted to see in the world, Barack Obama elected president. Namaste and thank you Gangaji for pointing us again and again to the only thing we truly Know. In Love, Kathleen (I was watching through wireless and we too gave up watching after a while because we were missing too much to make sense of the words. It was good to hear that through highspeed broadband someone was able to have a smoother viewing...next time I'll try going to someone's house with broadband!)

We were eight watching the live streaming in East Aurora NY. The streaming was hooked up from the laptop to the TV so all could enjoy. 
The broadcast began right on time which was exciting. The first half of the streaming was a bit rough and went off air a couple of times but the last third was great so whatever you did then do it always. The messages of the presentation were so seminal and alive at this moment and how wonderful to be in the Bay Area in my living room across the continent. I say do this more and more often :)
