TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Born in Denmark, being an artist and a disciple of the Danish painter Rostrup Boysen. Written books of poetry published in Denmark and abroad, writer of many articles and listed in the Blue Book (of V.I.P.) in Denmark as Ulla Borup. Also trained in the Institute of Psychosynthesis by Dr. Martha Crampton for three (3) years. For the last thirteen (13) years, Canadian citizen.

Student of the esoteric Masters, the Tibetan Master, Master Moray and Master Kuthomi and many others. Was introduced to Bhagwan on a visit to my sister Ebba Taylor who is married to a computer engineer and lives in California where her daughter, my nice (Ma Nidhi) at that time the Danish actress Elizabeth Norager was visiting her mother and she gave me to read one of Bhagwan's books, and after reading just a few lines I throw the book in the air and declared “This is it", just what is reciting in my heart, but I have been unable to express it and now this beautiful man, this lovely Master giving it all meaning and words.

There is no way almost or really to express the wonder -wonderful transformation I have gone through - the miracle that all the scriptures write of the state of utter satisfaction of joy and the ability to begin to love oneself and to know oneself, then it flows out to others -it has and it is such an energy and it flows and it does come through, in my work which now includes energy readings and energy sessions.

To become ever more a pure channel of this divine Master Bhagwan’s loving energy is the greatest gift ever to come my way. He is for me what the teachers and teaching through the ages have spoken of the Ever Coming One, the Messiah and the Maitrya. He says himself "I am here to help you to become your true self and I am your friend".

This is our Bhagwan. With the deepest felt gratefulness I am happy to share this with. you.

Sincerely
