WHAT THE YOUTH SAY…

“One day I hope to realize one of Bapak’s dream to build a hospital, so we can help the

government’s task in increasing the health standards of the people.

In the future I hope to widen my relationship with Subud members, so that I can find people who want to work together to develop Subud

and give positive influence to all.”

- Male Youth, Purwokerto, Central Java, 26 years old

“Hopefully more youths can participate, and hopefully Subud Youth activities can increase

my knowledge, experience and relations.”

- Female Youth, Yogyakarta, Central Java, 21 years old

“With the Latihan Kejiwaan it is as if I have found again a feeling which I have known

before I was born into this world.”- Male Youth, Purwokerto, Central Java, 25

years old

“I want to know the reason why I live in this world and what is the purpose.”

- Male Youth, Palangkaraya, Kalimantan, 28 years old

“I hope that Subud can keep its originality.”Male Youth, Surabaya, East Java, 30 years old

“I hope that joining Subud Youth can open me to networks of collaboration and hopefully

Subud Youth can continue to grow and develop as a regeneration of older members.”

- Female Youth, Solo, Central Java, 29 years old

“I hope that personally as a youth I can remain active and confident when facing other youths who

are more experienced. Frankly I am a bit hesitant when facing other youths

because my experience is still little and I’m shy. Hopefully Subud (especially the youths) who are

more experienced can embrace people like me who are still shy to participate and can become more

solid and successful.”

“I hope the generation of Subud Youth become more and more harmonious in the future, knowing one

another like sisters and brothers, use every chance to find cool and beneficial stuffs to do together, and help each other to realize how important Latihan is to our life. Help each other to understand that our

existence in Subud is not a coincidence. And don’t do stupid things because we are very special.”

Female Youth, Jakarta, 22 years old

“I hope that the youth in each region can contribute to Subud according to their capacity without hope

for any rewards or interest. Because directly or indirectly we learn to become a patient, trusting,

and surrendered person through the process we go through in Subud. By the grace of God we have

been able to follow the Latihan Kejiwaan and Subud doesn’t need us, it’s we that need Subud.”

- Male Youth, Surabaya, East Java, 29 years old

“I hope that Subud members can become more numerous and grow.”

- Female Youth, Medan, North Sumatra, 21 years old

“I hope to be able to live this life more strongly with patience, trust and surrender. I [also]

really hope to have an enterprise in a promising field in the future..”

- Female Youth, Cimahi, West Java, 19 years old

“Let's make the world a little bit better than yesterday :)”

- Male Youth, Jakarta, 22 years old
