https://gogetfunding.com/help-spread-ascension-in-cuba/ Several years ago the island of Cuba was touched for the first time by a passionate Mexican female Ishaya teacher; her name is Jayanti. In the course of a few years, Ascension has grown immensely. Teachers from different countries started traveling to the island to participate in courses, meetings, advanced weekends, conferences, interviews etc. Yet the expenses had to be covered by the teachers supported themselves, at times by donations here and there. They stayed with sponsors (now teachers...YEEEIIII!!!) and traveled wherever they were needed for a period of time. As you read this message, there are now 5 Cuban teachers and they need help to fulfill courses, retreats, etc. I'd love to become part of their team for the whole month of November, if possible. Please, help me to help them. You see, the island has been visited very recently by 2 teachers (Jaya and Atmarati), in Jaya's own words: "In a country where they feel victimized by the USA for an entire generation, they know and understand peace within makes sense. You can't wait for the world relations to change, you can't wait for the government to change. YOU have to make the most of your life".​ As I continue to explore the history of how this inspiring community grew from not hearing a word about meditation to the point where schools, universities, little villages, the main cities, etc grew more and more interested in Ascension, it is clear the whole country is ready for hope and if they are told "you need to ascend" they do so, meaning they are 1000% all-in.​ For you to get a sense, the average person makes $15 a month a good wage goes around $25 so to make money in this island you are either selling something or working in a restaurant. Now Cubans have a real sense of humour and they have learned to deal with the cards the universe had thrown at them so they joke saying "Cubans have nothing to eat but they are happy". During Jaya's and Atmarati's visit, they gave a conference to 450 people and their message was clear "Peace is possible now! not soon, but NOW. Everyone has the right to choose for a good life, to know unconditional love, we are all the same, wanting a good life of peace". So the conference took place, these teachers couldn't wait to guide this crowd to choose for that peace now, they wanted to leave this group with a real experience of peace and so they did... and it was awesome. About Me For a great number of years when I was young, growing up in Mexico City, I knew my life had to have a purpose, it wasn't getting married or going to school, it wasn't traveling either. It had to be more, way more to make life worth living. At that time I seriously considered suicide because nothing felt rich enough to keep my feet on this earth. Many years later... I am still here!! With my heart in full disposition to serve and do what I feel I do best. What do I do best? Exploration of God, it's more fun and alive when I share it openly and when I can actually hear the words coming out of my mouth for the very first time and you and I learn together. Ascension continues to amaze me, it simply never stops. Since I became an Ishaya in 2003 and started teaching shortly after, the wonder and discovery doesn't cease. For this burning desire to share, for the passion in Cuba, to help those 5 incredible teachers to continue to explore the Silence and playing with hundreds of people ready to wake up, for fulfilling my desire to serve, for honoring this Teaching and everything it has given me and for many more reasons, I reach out to you. My request is for your kind donation to do what I feel I do best, help me to help. Your donations will pay for transportation, accommodation, food and rental of venues wherever is needed. Any money remaining will stay with the teachers to carry on with their mission in anyway they judge is needed. That will be your gift to the island. Contact me if you can contribute in other ways, those teachers need basics like markers, stickers and curious stationary for kids (or any other small gift you can manage) if you have any clothes in good conditions, chocolate. It's all very welcome and greatly appreciated On behalf of the Ishaya Cuban Team: Thank you, thank you so much.
