Dear ISPS Board Members Dear Brothers and Sisters

ISPS the way forward together

We offer our deepest Pranam to our dear Mother who out of her compassion and love revealed Her
Swarupa as the Mother of the Universe to her children. May Shri Ganesha make our heart pure and
may every good intention be auspicious and fruitful.
We are writing this communication to the Sangha because many parents and also Yogis who do not
have children at ISPS have addressed us The World Foundation (Shri Mataji bestowed the remit of
education on the WF) for clarification and advice about the recent incidents at our global school in
India. After a very turbulent term in 2013 without principal there is a growing concern that such
situation would repeat itself. The dismissal of the principal Mary Kuhn and a considerable number of
her merited staff has obviously led into a situation that is perceived as highly unstable. Mutual trust
has suffered a lot due to these events. This might have been the reason why the World Foundation
was asked to give assurances with regards to many aspects of the school for example the safety of
the children and that ISPS will keeps on running according to Shri Matajis benevolent vision.
Naturally we all want ISPS to be that treasure of vibrations and love that we could see beautifully
manifesting for example in the 2014 term. Parents want to send their children to a place where they
are well taken care of and where they should be able to find their own approach to this wonderful
life of being in a continuous state of connection with the all pervading power. It should be a school
where children find the purity and clear atmosphere that would allow them to enjoy their own bliss
which comes to them from inside by the merits of their past lives. Together with their brothers and
sisters they should be able to develop their identification as Yogis and the strength and
understanding to deal with a world which does not care for spirituality, all this without losing neither
their loving attitude nor their dignity. This is the main reason why parents send their children away
for such a long time to such a remote place and maybe it is the only one.
We have good schools all over the world with globally respected academic degrees and many of
them are free. We need ISPS to deliver a satisfactory academic basis - no doubt, but children are not
going there just for their academics. They can have that aspect covered somewhere else. It is nice to
have a good infrastructure but the more buildings are built the fewer children attend. There is a lot
of good intention from all sides and with a genuine open dialogue we should be able to establish
trust and a sustainable future for ISPS as a light that shines from the Himalayas to enlighten the
world where children and parents feel happy and safe.
We have not achieved this as yet. The World Foundation again offers its full support to the
Board/Society of ISPS to find terms for a sustainable future of ISPS and a benevolent collaboration,
which would ultimately lead us beyond the continuous ups and downs of the last decade. Through
the guidance of Shri Mataji we have established certain standards of transparency which are the
basis of our credibility. We cannot go without those standards in any Sahaj institution no matter the
country. The accounts have to be open and transparent at all times and it needs to be very clear to
the sangha who is accountable for decisions. Decisions need to reflect and respect the collective
wisdom to be sustainable. Especially for a global project like ISPS, it seems essential to us to expand
the board with representatives who are professional educationalists and who would be appreciated
by the world Sangha. We are eagerly waiting for a sign of the ISPS board/Society to enter into a

genuinely open dialogue in order to collaborate as brothers and sisters at the Lotus Feet of our Holy
Mother.
Being worshippers of the same beloved Mother we should not have any doubts that this offer would
find its acceptance. Unfortunately at present circumstances the World Foundation cannot answer the
question with regards to the safety of children or about the future course of ISPS positively.
Responsibility for sending the children at present lies entirely in the hands of the parents.
May we at this point also ask the Board/Society of ISPS to kindly share the different answers to
collective parent letters openly with other parents and the WF. It would be very helpful to
anticipate answers to further questions also.
The World Foundation humbly request the ISPS Board to urgently answer the points highlighted and
underlined above on collaboration, financial transparency, accountability for decisions, open
dialogue and the sharing of answers to parents questions.
ISPS has during the years always been a great opportunity to face ourselves and luckily for so many
years Shri Mataji had in person taken care of every little detail. As SHE is now in HER Nirakar Swarupa
it is up to us to live up to the responsibilities that SHE had left to us. We are grateful to everybody
who during the history of ISPS has taken up responsibility and we value each and every contribution
that has been made out of pure heart.
We have all come to our Yoga to experience peace and silence in our heart and mind. This is all that
matters to us, because we want to remain in the realm of reality within the silence of the spirit. We
want to listen to the soothing wind on our heads and feel the subtle bliss flowing down. No noise, no
agendas, no blocking thoughts. We have in this mail offered from our heart ways to come back to
that state.

May our Dear Mother please bless us all,
