He’s been my Guru for almost two years and due to his real life and request of his wife Kira, Pramiil Magne has left his Brahma Yoga class here in Second Life. Speaking for myself it’s going to be hard for me as I enjoyed coming to his meditation classes. His meditation technique and how far I have advanced in his class has made a large impact in my self-esteem and I’m less angry. Guru is a Sanskrit term for "teacher" or "master", especially in Indian religions.
You might remember that
I wrote an article about him last year about what his class is all about. Lots of people, and me included, were sad to see him go. My friends in the BY class said various things about him leaving Second Life."
Aldaida, "Just would be nice if he could both stay and be happy, but we can't have everything we want."
Linux, who goes by his spiritual name, Divyamurti which means "The expression of the divine,” had this to say: “I like his information.”
StJohn Noyes over the phone had this to say about Pramiil our guru.
“That he was very committed to building and he was kind and was happy to give us love and attention in leading us in meditation. In addition to that he built spiritual connections between himself and hi students. He was educated and always knew the answer to spiritual questions. Pramiil has been a Guru for the past 30 years or so he had lots of knowledge to share.”
St John’s girlfriend Eyll Tripsa had this to say about Pramiil who has been a long time student of his teachings.
Eyll Tripsa, "For me Guruji was like a father figure. He guided me in Spiritualty. He has changed my view on life. And that helped me enormously in daily life."
My Guru has been helpful with helping with anger issues with myself and also Time of Sand who had this to say as a newcomer to the class.
TimeofSand, "He will be missed a lot."
Tiggy Scholessinger a furry who I invited to BY class who came to his class once had this to say about Pramiil, “It was a pleasure meeting him and it was a nice experience to meditate with him. I felt relaxed and really good about myself.”
When I got the quote from Eyll, she was telling me that she and her boyfriend StJohn were planning classes. She told me that Baba asked Eyll and St John to continue to organize times for everyone to meditate together. Baba Anandamurti a Guru that is no longer on earth, but he is a Guru that is very connected to Brahma asked Eyll and StJohn to start organizing classes right away.
People are welcome to meditate with me and my friends. Sadly due to real life, Pramiil can no longer be in Second Life to guide us spiritually. However with his teachings, I still have a strong connection to Brahma. And Pramiil did say ...
Pramiil Magne, "You are great Grease you have come such a long way (smile)."
Grease Coakes, "Thanks Guruji, but I’m sure I still have a while to go yet."
Pramiil Magne, "(smile) Yes, but you will get there very soon just keeping moving forward spiritually."
I’m not exactly sure what he meant by my next level of spiritualty is, but I’m sure it can only improve my soul and my real life person. Pramiil is still alive in real life and he said he will come watch over us when we meditate. He had this to say
Grease Coakes, "Namaste Guruji were you in my meditation before?"
Pramiil Magne, "Yes I was just there (smile)."
His avatar left us in Second Life, but he’s still thinking about our pixel avatars and the people behind them. That’s a lot of devotion and I’m happy that Pramiil Magne was and still is my Guru.

Tuesday, September 3, The Philosophy class convened for the first time
this semester. Presently the Professor, Herman Bergson is lecturing about Eastern and other philosophies. We have covered many aspects of Western
philosophies and philosophers over the past years and all lectures can be
reviewed at the blog, http://thephilosophyclass.
After the lecture and discussion the professor reminded us that in 16
more lectures he will reach lecture number 500 in Second Life. That is amazing in itself.
Some of us have been in class for most of that time, some are new to it all. We
just seem to graduate and keep returning year after year on Tuesdays and
Thursdays for an hour of lecture and discussion, sometimes heated, sometimes
calm. We try to stay on topic but seem to wander off on roads to nowhere and must
be pulled back to the subject at hand. 
This would be a good time to join the
Philosophy class. I asked Herman how many lectures he thought would be included
in this project about non-Western philosophies. “We still have a lot of subjects
to cover...: Lao-Tze, Taoism, Buddhism, Indian philosophy, Arabic
philosophy....” was his answer. To me it looks as if these lectures will go well
into 2014. We will see.
