Om Ganesha February 6, 1999 Morning Puja and prayer.
Namaste my Chelas. Do you all realize that your Ma lives in the big Baba Bus when I am away like this. It came to me that some of you do not know this. My Kumara and my other chelas worked hard on the inside of this bus to make my small space just like a cave. We stay at RV places. My Prema Dasi, still does not believe it. It reminds me of India. I love it when the Swamis Durga Das and Rudra Das drive into the sun rise when we travel across the country. I just thought I would let you know this about your Guru.
My morning prayer for you this morning is for you to understand what is justice and what is injustice. If you are without this knowledge you will blindly imitate others. If you are a just person, then you will judge no one and be your own person. Some people want all that their eyes see. The one who is just and judges no one knows that the whole world is in him.
Guru Nanak said, I wander in search of the true God conscious being. He also said that he will ferry his following across. What he means is that as Guru he will take his following across the desert of searching to the great God with in. Guru Nanak is the first Guru of the Sikhs
Yet this is true of all True Gurus. They ferry their children across the desert of the world into the arms of God. He who is the Liberator Himself or her self liberates his Chelas as they cling to his or her teachings.
I take a scented flower this morning and place it at the feet of my Mother, She who removes all difficulties. Place your right hand over your heart my Chelas and repeat these words: my Mother Durga let our breath mingle together, Mother and child as I place the flower of your being in my heart cave. Then lower your hand and feel the heart open. Then bow to the spirit of she who is all pervading knowledge. Feel the Mother placing her right foot straight down on your ego this day and night. How wonderful to feel this. I give you these simple instructions so you can know the Divinity in your self and in others. Let her ferry you across the worldly seas into the calmness of the Sacred Ganga. Within the lotus of your heart, meditate on the Mother. Through meditation let all your fears go. You are on life’s sea and the Mother is your life jacket. All these things I thought of during my Pujas this morning. She who manifests in all forms is right there with you. I bow down to her 1008 times in all of your names. I who know all of her forms worship them all every moment of my life. Can you not feel me my Chelas? I am there in your heart lotus. She is the being you are seeking. She is the Giver of freedom. Know her and know yourself. There is nothing like it. Some want to know of sex and bliss. Nothing in the world can compare to one split second of knowing the Mother. Brahmacharya is the fastest and truest way to God. Yet the Mother knows that a house holder can make it to God if they give up attachment and remain pure. My Ashram is a woman and all who live on her and any of my ashrams in California and New York are woman also and so those who live there are married to the Father Shiva as they worship the Mother. Both are the same. I am rambling and loving it. I pray that you are all getting it. I love you all so much. Love Ma Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
