Page 197 - Adhiyoga Purana

Michelangelo Rossi
Michelangelo had arrived at the training with high hopes, but also the quiet doubt we all carry before a big step: Will it be worth it? Will I find what I’m looking for?
The answer came in ways he didn’t expect. The days at Alpe Della Luna were full — sometimes demanding, sometimes tiring — yet they flowed with a balanced rhythm that left him strangely peaceful.
By the end of the course, he felt reborn. Certain patterns of thought and tension had simply dissolved. Michel spoke of it later as a “reset” — a clearing of old limitations to make space for new possibilities.
“This,” he thought, “could be a new beginning.” And with a smile, he remembered one of Adhiyogi’s sayings: In Love, anything is possible.
Later, Michelangelo invited Adhiyogi to his home in the mountains above Florence. There, he hosted and provided boarding for other Adhiyoga students so they could complete an entire Teacher Training session together. Those days were a blend of serious study and joyful camaraderie — filled with education, hard work, homework, fun, and plenty of lighthearted gossip.
From that time onward, Michelangelo and Adhiyogi have been friends — a friendship rooted in respect, shared values, and the memories of those transformative days in the mountains.
OM Shantiḥ.
