Welcome to this Forum.
I have been a student of Patrizia Norelli Bachelet since 2000. Since that time I have witnessed an impressive amount of resistance to her as an essential ‘Third’ element of the Supramental Descent begun by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. I have also witnessed a wide gamut of resistance to her contributions to Vedic Cosmology, Sacred Geometry, the study of Time, Evolution, Astrology, the Enneagram, History, the Mother’s Temple, and to her Vision and Knowledge of Unity.
The resistance has come in many forms, including and not limited to obstructing the publication of and distribution of her books (and in one case destroying them), physical intimidation and violence, plagiarism and distortion of her work, published defamatory statements, slanderous email campaigns, a refusal to discuss or admit the issues on certain internet discussion groups. Some resistance is not so aggressive in nature and stems simply from an inability to grasp the concepts she is introducing, and an impatience with the subject matter.
It occurs to me that perhaps it is time to establish a Forum where we can bring our ISSUES and varied views more consciously to the table.
Patrizia Norelli-Bachelet is aware of this project and will contribute to the process as her time allows. Please remember to ACCURATELY identify yourself, and any yogic or scholarly associations relevant to your point of view. If you cannot offer your true identity and affiliations, then clearly you will not have much to offer in this process of discovering Truth.

Dear Lori,
Hello!I am a firm believer in Sri Aurobindo and that best sums up my condition, a believer, and that his yoga is the path for me and that I am walking on it consciously or unconsciously for quite some time.
It is only recently that i heard about Patrizia Norelli Batchelet and my gut feeling or instinct clearly believes her, yet, I have to find the truth for myself,as any yogic evolution is not possible without experience and that is the power that god has gifted to every human,to verify each and every fact for himself or herself through yoga or means best available to the human intelligence,though ,this means saying yes to an unimaginable task,saying yes to God.
This is what Sri Aurobindo did for he said YES in a manner,probably, no one ever has done before him.
Love,
kj.
Hi kj, thanks for posting. I'm encouraging/asking posters to fearlessly include full names. Regarding PNB's contributions to the Supramental and Integral yogas ... there is really nothing more to do than READ with an open mind, discarding the 'rumours' the 'rumours'. Many of these 'rumours'will be addressed here in due time and perhaps settled. It will be quite a different chapter in the Yoga when those who are attracted to Sri Aurobindo's revolutionary mission appreciate the contribution of the Third in his Line. Finding the Third, for me was the begining of a GREAT adventure, full of extraordinary knowledge and experiences to back it all up, beyond the realm of mental belief ...ENJOY your studies... Lori
