evening is set for tonight (Friday) from 7 to 11 p.m.

Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
..called one of the world’s
greatest living saints.

Yoga founder
to speak

ON SATURDAY, Aug. II, a
woman who har been called one
of the world's greatest living
Saints will teach her program of
Self Realization to the Vancouver
public.

Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi offers
a system of meditation that em-
phasizes the need for people to
become their own guru. Her tech-
nique, called Sahaja Yoga, uses
signals and = sensations called
vibrations felt on the central ner-
vous system to achieve greater
awareness and deeper intuition.
“Rather than requiring a ‘leap of
faith,’ it is an actual experience of
the integration of our physical,
mental, emotional and spiritual
being. It thus brings about com-
plete balance and inner peace,”
say followers.

Developed over 20 years and
spread throughout 40 countries,
the practice of Sahaja Yoja is
beginning to enjoy global recogni-
tion. In the Soviet Union, as a
result of recent meetings between
Shri Mataji and the health
ministry, a completely distinct
status for the teaching of Sahaja
Yoga was arranged by the
ministry. In addition, the ministry
organized a program by 500 doc-
tors who, later that same day, at-
tended a public lecture given by
Shri Mataji.

Shri Mataji will be speaking in
Vancouver at the Vancouver
Academy of Music, near the
Planetarium, on Aug. 11 at 7

p.m.

The Sahaja Yoga Society meets
at the North Vancouver City
Library at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays
and at the West Vancouver Me-
morial Library at 7 p.m. Thurs-
days. For information call 921-
9946 or 926-3925.

for hoedown

with a western theme,”” explained

invited to Dundarave, where
Marine Drive will be blocked to
vehicle traffic.

And organizers are asking that
you bring not only your family
and friends, but a2 mug and plate
as well.

The theme this year is ‘*Going
Green,” and one goal of the even-
ing is to cut down on. waste.
Reeyeling bins will be set up so
everyone can separate what gar-
bage is produced.

Between two and feur thousand
people enjoy the Hoedown
festivities organized by the Dun-

darave Business Association each
year. Highlights will be the coun-
try band — Jimmy Roy’s Five-
Star Hillbillies, featuring Daniel
Lapp — and West Vancouver
square dancers led by Doreen
Sillary.

Face painting, hot dogs and
magicians will keep children hap-
py, while adults may wish to take
advantage of the merchants’ side-
walk specials or enjoy dinner at
one of the Village’s restaurants.
All have patio licences for the
event, and there will be a belly
dancer performing at the Greek
restaurant.

Special ‘‘Dundarave Village’
crinkle-cotton shirts have been
specially produced and will be
available at cost.

The first Hoedown was held to
commemorate West Vancouver's
75th anniversary year, and has
been @ popular tradition ever
since.

We've got work for you now.

f you’re a high school or college student you could use a little walk-
ing around money in your jeans during summer break, right?

You'll be pleasantly surprised about the money you can make delivering the
North Shore News ... especially if you have a car. By working a couple of hours,
three days a week ... you'll be able to enjoy the time you do have to yourself.

If you don’t want to be just
hanging around broke this sum-
mer, then give us a call now. We
can probably put you to work
this week.
