The Temple of Original Happiness

The Temple of Original Happiness in New Plymouth is a dharma temple. This building has been set-aside for the Adept Spiritual Master YanchiGuruji and all those who wish to Contemplate and Understand and Realise their Original Nature or the Being of Love. Dharma (pronounced da-ma) is a Sanskrit word that contains two meanings.

1) the Law, the Natural Law or the Universal Law. The Way of Truth, and 2) Duty.

Together, then, Dharma is our Highest Duty to align ourselves with the Great Law, or Way of Truth. It is the Way of Profound Self-Understanding.The Function of all Spiritual Masters is to Awaken in people self- understanding and the self- responsibility of their Highest Duty and Ultimate Realisation in the midst of their daily life. Therefore, the Dharma Hall is a place where people come to Feel into, and Be with, and Realise their Inherently Perfect Being-ness or Original Nature. It is a place of no more seeking, no more doctrines, no more dogma, no more conventional religion or philosophy. It is the Body’s Temple of Un-conditional Love. You are welcome.

Satsang.

Being with the Spiritual Master is referred to as Satsang.

Satsang is a composite of two Sanskrit words.

Sat - Truth

Sanga - Refuge or Community.

Satsang literally means “Being in the Company of Truth” or “True or Right Relationship”. The term Satsang is most commonly used to refer to the physical time one spends in the Presence of a Wise person.

Ultimately, Satsang is the Conscious adherence in the Divine Reality or one’s Original Nature. Satsang is the Enlightened Relationship with the Inherent Nature, or Being, of every human, animal, plant and world.

Satsang is Communion with the Un-obstructed Conscious Force of Life-Itself.

What is “Guru”?

The Adept Spiritual Master is often referred to as Guru.

The Adept Spiritual Master is a Man or Woman who Lives Consciously Awakened as the Being of Un-conditional Love. They are Alive and Awakened as the Heart of Life-Itself and Function in this Way for the sake of all humans. The Spiritual Adepts of all times and places have always Communicated the same unqualified message. That is, they simply Communicate, and Awaken in others, the Living Force of Life-Itself, or Love.

The term Guru comes from the joining of two contrasting Sanskrit words meaning “darkness” and “light”. The Guru Functions to instruct, turn, attract, or lead people from “darkness” (un-enlightened living, or no self-understanding) into “light” (Enlightened Living, or Self-Understanding). The Guru, in Truth, is the Function of the Adept Spiritual Master. The term Guru, when properly used, refers to One who Functions as a Realised or Awakened Spiritual Master for the sake of Awakening others to their Inherent Being-ness.

The Guru has no conventional religious or cultural dogma or beliefs to impart. He/She simply calls people into their Company (their Spiritual Presence or Realisation) and Lives to them, and Instructs them, in the Way of Existence Itself, or the Present Living Truth, which is coincident with Un-conditional Love or Divine Being.
