Letter to the Global Community
Dear 3HO Family and Friends,
Sat Nam. In the name of the One who does all, we would like to share with you and those you serve what is happening at the Secretariat Offices in New Mexico. Along with the advent of our crisp Fall weather and snow in the hilltops, we are right in step with this season of change!
In 2001, the Siri Singh Sahib (Yogi Bhajan) told us that we must be known for our service by 2007. The Universe, with her infinite sense of humor has decided that we should move faster to accomplish this and we have been faced with an immediate challenge.
For the past few years, several of the non-profit organizations have been blessed to have donations come in to supplement their self-generated income. In 2007 it is expected that these donations will be substantially less than they have been, and so we find ourselves addressing the challenge of how we can best serve the mission given increased financial constraints.
This challenge has prompted an examination of the goals of each organization, starting from the perspective of how they serve the vision and mission of the Siri Singh Sahib as a part of the global community. In an effort to maximize service, a streamlining of our processes is occurring, including cutting costs. Although we see this as having an immediate positive effect worldwide, it will also affect some members of our community who have been employed by these organizations. We have been working closely within our organizations to make all these hard decisions together and will provide the best transition support we can for any employees who may be affected.
The Siri Singh Sahib told us that difficult times would come, but he also told us that the future would be bright and prosperous. The sense is that this shift will make the organizations stronger, and allow us to serve more people to have healthy, happy and holy lives. If you would like more information, or would like to help in some way, please contact any of the people listed below.
In the name of the Cosmos which prevails through everyBODY and the Holy Nam which holds the world.
Humbly yours,
The Secretariat, staff of the non-profit organizations
