A Brief about His Holiness Dhyanyogi Omdasji Maharaj:

Dhyanyogi Omdasji is the third in line of the Illustrious Gurus of Kundalini Maha Yoga.

His Guru is Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji who brought the Kundalini Shaktipat and Yoga to the masses in India and West. And his Param Guru is Dhyanyogi Parameshwardasji who is reputed to be an immortal.

Dhyanyogi Omdasji was born into the Path of Yoga. His paternal and maternal relatives were great siddhas and yogis.

He is well known in the sadhu and saint community in India for he has lived with them during his childhood and is connected with them now too.

Before reaching the age of twenty, he was instrumental in conducting the Kumbh Mela in Allahabad and was the head of several Mutts. He gave up everything after he became the Gadipati of Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji. Quoting the words of Dhyanyogi Omdasji about his Guru: “the love and grace of Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji and the Honor of Gadipati that he has bestowed on me are the highest achievements I can attain”

Omdasji spent several years in spiritual practices and tapas to prepare himself to meet his Sadguru. His prayers were answered the day he met his Sadguru Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji.

Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji was among the greatest Kundalini Yogis born in India. The saint community in India equated his status to that of Shri Ramakrishna Paramhamsa. He was an adept who could transfer his own energy and awaken the Kundalini Shakti of another person by touch, mantra or even intent from distance. This awakening of the Kundalini Shakti is called Shaktipat.

Kundalini Shakti is the primordial energy or power which gives life to the human fetus at the seventh month in the mother’s womb and then goes to sleep at the base of the spinal column of the fetus. As long as the Kundalini Shakti is not awakened, man lives a materialistic life ensnared by his desires and ambitions. Only when the Kundalini Shakti is awakened and actively starts moving upwards towards the crown of the head, a human being is truly set on his return journey to Divinity.

Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji was old and needed a worthy successor. Even before meeting Omdasji, he knew that Omdasji was the rightful successor to Seat of the Guru. Later on he revealed to Omdasji how had in the past, mentally guided him to visit certain power spots and do spiritual practices and prepare himself for the day when they would both meet. Thus a truly worthy disciple received the Shaktipat from a great Master and Yogi.

Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji had appointed several teachers and bestowed on them rights to give Shaktipat and mantras to the beginners in the path and teach meditation. These teachers had limited capacities, abilities and powers. Only Omdasji was able to receive and hold all the powers and grace that his Guru transferred to him.

So on 14th July 1992, during the Guru Purnima celebrations, Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji anointed Omdasji as his Gadipati and successor in the Hansol Ashram in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. He declared that he had selected his spiritually most powerful, devoted and worthy disciple as his successor. The title of ‘DHYANYOGI’ was bestowed on Omdasji. This coronation ceremony was witnessed and attended by the then Chief Minister of Gujarat, heads of different religions, dignitaries, prominent citizens, members of the sadhu community and people from all walks of life.

In the midst of such a gathering of people and media, Dhyanyogi Madhusudandasji spoke of the qualities of his successor and endorsed the spiritual heights obtained by Omdasji by publicly declaring: I bow down in reverence to this great ocean of knowledge of all Yogic Sciences and Scriptures, who is full of compassion and a fervent devotee of Shri Rama.

California Legislature Recognizes Museums, Snoopy License Plate to Fund Museums

Leave a comment

The California State Legislature unanimously passed a bill yesterday with bipartisan support to recognize the essential role that museums have in the State of California as educational institutions.

Santa Cruz, CA, May 27, 2014 – The California State Legislature unanimously passed a bill yesterday with bipartisan support to recognize the essential role that museums have in the State of California as educational institutions. This overwhelming endorsement complements a program underway to put the beloved beagle Snoopy on California license plates and help fund the state’s museums at the same time. In recognition of California Museums Month, Californians are invited to visit www.snoopyplate.com to pre-order their Snoopy license plates and support the vital work of museums in preserving and sharing our State’s culture and heritage.

Assembly member Ian Calderon (D-Whittier) introduced ACR 115 California Museums Month, a measure that designates May 2014 as California Museum Month and invites all Californians to recognize and celebrate the vital role museums serve as educational institutions. “California museums play an essential role in our state,” stated Assembly member Calderon in a press release. “They are not only the key drivers of tourism, but also an excellent source of educational programs that enhance a student’s learning experience.” Assembly member Calderon is the Chair of the Committee on Arts, Entertainment, Sports, Tourism and Internet Media.

The license plate features a reproduction of an original drawing of Snoopy by Peanuts cartoonist Charles Schulz. Proceeds from sales will establish a competitive grant program to support California’s museums, administered by the California Cultural and Historical Endowment (CCHE), a State entity.

In less than four months, over 3,800 Californians have pre-ordered the special interest license plate to support museums – which is more than half the number needed to establish the program. The Department of Motor Vehicles will begin issuing the Snoopy license plates upon receipt of 7,500 paid applications.

The Snoopy plate is also an opportunity to commemorate Santa Rosa cartoonist and cultural icon Charles Schulz. Jean Schulz, the widow of Peanuts cartoonist Charles Schulz, the Schulz family, and Peanuts Worldwide are generously allowing access to the original drawing for this special plate.

The California Cultural and Historical Endowment (CCHE) was established at the California State Library in 2003. AB 482 (Atkins) transferred the CCHE to the California Natural Resources Agency in 2014. CCHE grants have helped to preserve the many historic treasures that are California’s cultural legacy. Current funding for CCHE projects is from voter-approved Proposition 40 bonds from the California Clean Water, Clean Air, Safe Neighborhood Parks, and Coastal Protection Act of 2002. Approximately $122 million was appropriated to CCHE to distribute competitively for the acquisition, restoration, preservation and interpretation of historical and cultural resources. http://resources.ca.gov/cche/

The California Association of Museums (CAM) is a non-profit service organization representing the interests of California’s 1,400 museums, including art and history museums, aquariums, natural history museums, science centers, children’s museums, zoos, cultural centers, and botanical gardens. CAM assists California museums in fulfilling their missions as educational and research institutions that interpret and preserve art and cultural and scientific collections for public benefit. www.calmuseums.org

The PEANUTS characters and related intellectual property are owned by Peanuts Worldwide LLC, a joint venture owned 80% by Iconix Brand Group, Inc. and 20% by members of the Charles M. Schulz family. Iconix Brand Group, Inc. owns, licenses and markets a growing portfolio of consumer brands. The company licenses its brands to a network of leading retailers and manufacturers that touch every major segment of retail distribution from the luxury market to the mass market in both the U.S. and worldwide. Through its in-house business development, merchandising, advertising, and public relations departments Iconix manages its brands to drive greater consumer awareness and equity.

Monterey Program for Executive Health Adds New Screenings to its Executive Exam

Leave a comment

Dr. Geiler and Team Offer World-class Medicine In A World-Class Destination

Monterey, CA, May 27, 2014 — A distinctive program designed to give clients an efficient and comprehensive medical evaluation in one of the most coveted resort and golf destinations in the country, The Monterey Program for Executive Health approaches preventative medical care with patients’ time and comfort in mind. The elite physicians at The Monterey Program spend a full day with the patient to complete comprehensive screening, imaging and other advanced diagnostics—all in a sanctuary setting.

The program is the first executive health program in Northern California to add new screenings for:
Alzheimer screening. Dr. Geiler and his team are the first in Northern California to offer this advanced screening through an Executive Exam program.  Dr. Geiler and his team administer a blood test for Alzheimer’s disease that predicts with astonishing accuracy whether a healthy person will develop the disease

General dementia
Lung cancer screening. There is evidence that screening persons aged 55 to 74 years who have cigarette smoking histories of 30 or more pack-years and who, if they are former smokers, have quit within the last 15 years reduces lung cancer mortality by 20% and all-cause mortality by 6.7%.

Screening for Diabetes early markers
“Our goal at the Monterey Program is to help our clients fully understand their medical picture, so they can convert that knowledge into action,” Dr. Geiler says.  “In addition to undergoing the most advanced diagnostics in the medical industry, the client is given a comprehensive risk-factor assessment that analyzes family and patient medical histories and current lifestyle habits. Experienced, licensed professionals evaluate the status of patients’ nutrition and fitness levels and work with the physicians to create tailored lifestyle suggestions that integrate seamlessly into their often busy daily routines. The client and doctor will then work together to develop a personalized wellness plan that includes a discussion of risk factors and illness prevention.

When the evaluation is complete, the client receives an extensive, customized medical report with a health profile, results, interpretations and recommendations for follow-up care. This detailed report of the patient’s evaluation is conveniently stored as a digital file on a small flash drive.

As an additional service, the Monterey Program offers corporate packages for businesses to provide to their top executive officers. The program can turn essential preventative care into a productive and relaxing corporate retreat.

Monterey Program For Executive Health Concierge Services:
The Monterey Program is unlike any other executive health program, as it offers more than just a superior medical evaluation—it offers an invaluable wellness experience.

From the moment a client arrives at the Monterey Regional Airport, their personal concierge provides transportation to one of our outstanding hospitality partners. On the day of their executive physical, the client’s personal concierge escorts them to the hospital and remains their guide throughout their day of wellness.

Not only does the friendly team on concierge and the Monterey Program manage all aspects of the executive evaluation, they are eager to make clients’ retreats memorable by helping them discover the splendor of the Monterey Bay Area. This stunning region, where the mountains taper down to the shore, provides an abundance of hiking trails, bicycling paths and other recreational activities such as golfing, kayaking and diving. If golf is a priority, The Monterey Program is a proud partner of Pebble Beach Golf Links, the site of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, and one of the most visually stunning courses in the world.

The Monterey Program is located on the campus of top-rated Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula (CHOMP), which is nestled in the lush Del Monte Forest.  CHOMP is a fully accredited hospital honored by Healthgrades Patient Safety Excellence Award for 2 years in a row (2011-2012), in addition to its 100 Best Hospitals for: Cardiac Surgery (2012-2013), Orthopedic Surgery (2012-2013), and Spine Surgery (2012).
