THE ASSOCIATION OF HARIDAS AND THE WEBMASTER

  My association with John Armitage (Haridas) or Jock as he was known  then started over twenty years ago, (1979)
I had just moved to Weston-s-Mare into a maisonette with my wife who was heavily pregnant at the time. I got home from work one evening to find that she was upset as somebody had been knocking on the door and running away.
Just as she was explaining the door banged I got up to see a young boy of four and a girl running away I chased the boy and jumped over him scaring him. He told me he was going to get his dad, so I said fine.
 A couple of days later I was getting out the car and this man said I hear you had a run in with my boy, yep I said puffing out my chest, he been giving me some grief, John replied well when he does it next time tell me about it. I will kick his butt. (Though he would never have done it) As I walked away I shivered, and stated that somebody had just walked over my grave, John turned and said no some entity has just bumped into your aura. I then spent the next two hours in the car park talking to John. Over the next couple of months I spent most evenings with John discussing different topics, things started to  fall into place it was like wheels turning and the pictures started coming into view.
            
It become obvious that I had somewhere learnt this knowledge before and within a short time it seemed I was starting another journey. John at the time had been studying for about 20 years, I have always had the ability to see things and feel when things were not right, but always went with it though it was not always in my favour. One night I had a dream that a neighbours baby had died, I asked John he we could stop it happing or was it going to happen, he said what are you going to do knock on their door and tell them that their baby is going to die. Within two days the baby had passed, the mother knocked on my door at 5.30am crying that her baby had died, I told her that I knew as I had been up at 3.00am as I could not sleep looked out the window saw Johns light was also on.
Over the next couple of years we done a lot of learning, I was Johns first regression run, which lasted over 2 hours, it was not always serious we had a lot of fun and laughs, like the time we were into CB radios, they were at the time illegal in England, we use to talk to people all over the world.
There was a lot of sun spot activity going on we used this to skip the airwaves we got as far as Jamaica and Australia. One day we decided that if we could get the aerial as high possible perhaps we could go along way we went to this hill and with an burner (amplifier) we tried to broadcast what we did not know that we were  near the local TV mast and knocked out the signal to over 500 television sets. We were also not aware that the men from the home office (These people were the radio trackers dept) were down the road in a van and started to chase us up the lanes.

Then one evening I had a massive asthma attack, I managed to wake my wife she called the doctor but I had left it to late, as he gave me the second injection I told him that I felt I was going, the last thing I saw was the light in the bedroom then darkness, it was a strange feeling at first but as I got by bearings I could sense that I was in a space no bigger then 10ft square but there was room enough to share with about 10 million people, what struck me the most was the peace and tranquillity, though it was dark I could sense that someone was there I asked if I had passed over and was told this was the case. I replied that I had feared this day and now that it had happened I was happy.
I then humbly asked if I could see my family one more time to see if they were ok. I was informed that I was not staying was going to be sent back. As I woke in the bedroom you could see the relief on the doctors face as he was hitting me in the chest.
I was transferred to the hospital as they were working on me this man appeared at the end of the bed, he just smiled I knew that it  would be alright.
After a couple of days I was back in the main ward I looked up one afternoon to see John with pack on his back a staff in his hand and a bowie knife on his belt he had been told that I was ill and returned from Stonehenge (where he had been helping to organize a rock festival) to see me, to the amazement of the nurses he started to give me some healing and potions in the ward.
A week later John went away again and asked me to get him a book on the American Wild West, when I opened it there was a drawing of the man in the hospital his name was Victorio I can recall one occasion when John was healing me in his kitchen as I had a bad headache; all of a sudden I jumped off the stool and was being violently sick in the sink, this samurai warrior appeared and two of our friends ran out the house.
John wanted to go to India he had been there in his younger days. But he was worried about leaving his wife, she was afraid that she  would have a epileptic fit in her sleep and be on her own with the children (2 years later she died in her sleep) So every night my wife and I stayed at his house with his wife. He had been gone about a six weeks when late one evening I was in his chair reading and he appeared in front of me (astral travelling or Lightbody) he had been ill I knew that he would return within the week. I just got up one morning went to the backdoor waited 5mins and he appeared in the garden rucksack and all.
He was the first westerner to be initiated into a Hara Krishna ceremony at the temple he used to be the Guru of in a previous life.
At the time I was doing a lot of reading about the Tibetans and a monk called Lobsang Tuesday Rampa, many say he was a fraud but I believe it did me no harm. I have based some of beliefs on his way
of life.

John moved into a cottage named Sunshine cottage he started doing a  lot of healing, he was healing up to 70 people a week. As a plumber (this was the name I used for the CB radio and John still refers to me as plumber on occasions) I had access to copper pipe and fittings. One evening I saw that he was sketching and between us I built his first copper pyramid (stargate) the energy was great, it was then suggested that we put a coil in the middle. I believe we also added a crystal at a later stage.
On doing so it changed the energy and on one occasion John channelled khutumi. I went on to run some healing circles, which started with 4 people and ended with 24. One day in the circle told everybody I was leaving, I felt it was time to move on I left the circle, and moved to a town called Clevedon I lost contact with John for a number of years. Over the next couple of years I was asked many times to open a circle or to carry on some of the teachings I always declined, as I wanted my own space.

Five years ago my mother in-law (Kathy) was diagnosed having lung cancer, she had breast cancer five years previously (but she ignored the signs ) (please remember many people do survive cancer)

I had been away with my wife for a weekend break, as we were travelling home on the motorway I said to my wife that John had lived in a village not far from the next exit. As I had not seen John for a number of years I did not know if he still lived there, I decided to look for him and left the motorway exit and though John had moved to London the previous year within an hour he was stood in front of me.
I asked if he could help Kathy with some healing, the next day we went to the hospital, one of the first things that struck me since last meeting John was the immense power that seemed to surround him.
It soon felt that I had not been away and the desire had returned to start work again. (I believe it a good thing to take a step back occasionally)
Though I had spoken to Kathy about the healing and what would happen if she did pass on, I felt that she needed it confirming, John did help Kathy with the healing and reassured her.
However, there comes a time when it is our turn to walk into the light.
The night before Kathy passed, we did not have a relief baby sitter when John suddenly called to tell me he was at my house and he would look after the children. I asked him how he knew he replied that he had a feeling that he should show up.
It was about 2.00 am, there were some flowers on the table next to the bed they started to shimmer my wife, and her sister ran from the room crying. What I witness next was incredible; a mass of pure light appeared you could sense the immense energy and light that it radiated, you could feel an abundance of love as it moved across the room and engulfed Kathy. Luckily my wife and her sister had witnessed it before running from the room. It helped them accept the passing.
John later informed me that it was Sananda that I had seen.
Kathy passed away the next day after one of her sister (a antitheist) told me she had seen a purple mist coming from her chest.
I later attended some of John’s workshops at Beeston farm in Bude Cornwall, England, where I videoed some of the workshop, I was surprised how things had progressed since the earlier days. I was amazed at the power and emotions that flowed, so much that I told him that I could not video anymore as it seemed to personal to carry on.

John eventually went to Scotland to live where he started the mahatma site with somebody called Gideon, who after a while was having trouble with the setting up of the pages and abandoned the site.
John then asked me to help with the site and I just seemed to adopt it. So I took it over and with all your input it has turned into one of the largest in Europe.
I retired due to a back injury and arthritis ten years ago, I feel that this has given me the time to devout my self to the things that I what and need to do, as I work on the site so much things are starting to happen it seems I AM back again.
