WELCOME:

Good afternoon and welcome to this special Satellite Broadcast to celebrate the growth of Maharaji's message around the world.

It seems incredible that approximately two years ago many of us gathered to witness the first live broadcast of Maharaji speaking simultaneously to countries across the globe. Today, 45,000 people see weekly broadcasts globally. Cable access is beginning to happen in many places also. In Australia, broadcasting by Community Television is being extensively researched.

Today a special 2 hour broadcast will be screened celebrating the growth of materials and broadcasts and their impact on propagation worldwide.

As you entered the theatre today you were given some information about direct access and how to support this world-wide project. If you would like to make a contribution towards the continued growth of this and the production of other resource materials, you will have an opportunity to do so during the break and at the conclusion of the event. In the foyer there are displays of many of the materials as well as the information table about direct access.

A refreshment break today will occur in about 50 minutes time and will run for 30 minutes. For the first 15 minutes of the break the video will be stopped. Interviews will be screened for the second 15 minutes of the break. This segment is optional viewing.

The bell will ring in the foyer at the conclusion of the 30 minutes as the second part of "Passages" will then begin.

CONCLUSION

This concludes today's event. Everyone viewing this broadcast around the world today is invited to get behind the support for materials and broadcasts, and CAUSE A GLOBAL EFFECT.

If you would like to make a contribution today or in the near future, or become a regular monthly sponsor, you will find all the necessary details on the contribution form that you have been given.

All contributions no matter how small or big, are very welcome and always much appreciated.

Please see the people at the information tables, for any further assistance. Thank you for coming and listening, as people did all around the world today for this special effort.

Together we really can CAUSE A GLOBAL EFFECT
