    Yesterday I contemplated my priority for 2026 and received this answer: “Act differently.” I wondered what to change and how. Then today, when I received Gurumayi’s Message, I realized that it answered precisely these two questions! There is so much grace and love in this synchronicity; it fills me with joy. I see it as a sign of a great blessing from my Guru. 

     

    This feeling of blessedness took root in my heart during the meditation in Sweet Surprise. My gaze was on Bade Baba, and the four bouquets of flowers surrounding him appeared to me as bearers of each of the four lines of Gurumayi’s Message. At that moment, I focused on each of the bouquets in turn and, to my great surprise, I remembered each of the four sentences in the Message. Each bouquet seemed to contain the nectar of the Guru’s words and Bade Baba’s grace, so that I could integrate this teaching and make it my own during the year 2026. Thanks to my Guru, I begin this new year with great confidence, curiosity, and profound gratitude.

    Today, at the exact moment that my mind felt full and open, Gurumayi’s Message for 2026 reached me. It didn’t feel like just words—it felt like guidance. In the middle of my responsibilities, studies, and inner noise, Gurumayi’s Message felt like a pause given by grace. It felt like a reminder that I don’t need to rush—only to remain aware, sincere, and connected. I am grateful beyond words.

    As I heard each phrase of the Message, I immediately thought of its perfection. These words will guide my daily life as I reflect upon and contemplate them deeply and consistently. To me, they are a refuge.

    Starting the year with Gurumayi in the Siddha Yoga Universal Hall and receiving her Message fills me with intention, purpose, and meaning. Gurumayi’s Message for 2026 stands out to me with its structure of four sentences. I am planning to devote time to focus deeply on each sentence. In this way, I can fully explore the meaning of each and see where it might take me; what lessons it might have to teach me; and how it might bring wisdom, light, perspective, and clarity into my life during 2026.

     

    This year feels like I’m stepping into big changes, and with Gurumayi’s Message, I feel prepared and ready for whatever comes my way. I am certain that every activity I find myself doing will be enhanced by Gurumayi’s words, which will guide me with love and clarity. I feel ready for the challenges and the joys this year will bring, knowing that God is by my side.

    Gurumayi’s Message inspires me to expand my journey of inner growth and to become more aware, more present, more at peace. It is easy for me to get lost in the chaos of life, but it’s time for me to reconnect with my heart. I will focus on doing this through the practice of letting go and staying true to my values and the purpose of my life. I will try to stay aware of my thoughts, emotions, and actions and to allow myself to make conscious choices in order to lead a more purposeful life. 

     

    I am thankful to Gurumayi ji for giving us this study focus of the year.

    I connected to the livestream prior to the beginning of the satsang. During this time, I saw Gurumayi offer a shawl to Bade Baba and then offer pranam to him. This scene made a deep impression on me. I saw how, even though she is the Guru, Gurumayi remains a disciple. 

    From this experience, I received the guidance that, even as I become more and more competent in the various roles in my life, it is essential for me to stay focused on my studentship, my discipleship, and to stay humble and offer all my actions to God. I understood that this is the key to acting from my heart, rather than from my ego.

    While we were chanting Narayana, I felt drawn to send blessings to support one of my family members in a challenging situation she is experiencing with a person in her life. I visualized the two of them being open to each other and positive energy flowing between them. Just then, the lead group started to sing harmonies with the chant. What a sweet synchronicity. It felt like grace was joining in with my prayer! I took the hint and prayed for harmony between the two people.
