Om Ganesha February 20, 1999 Saturday. Morning Puja and Prayers.
Namaste my Chelas, Swami says that only in the subtle state can you be without thought. Discrimination is the merging of mind into the mind. Samadhi is the equal vision. Seeing one in all. When the fluctuations of the mind are stilled.
Through spiritual practice, keep the six enemies, anger, desire, envy, passion, greed, delusion under control.
What great advice from the greatest of men. At first learning from Swami was very difficult. I tried to let every word sink in and be absorbed.
Then one day in 1973, Swami Said: This one must say to you, that you already have all these instructions inside of you and you only have to listen to your self. With these words he touched my forehead, or I should say banged my forehead with the heal of his hand, and I knew it all, all that he had said, all that he was and all that I was and would be. My world was falling apart and I was in bliss. Nothing made sense. He also said that it would be easier for my chelas. That their Guruji would be in the flesh, always at the sacred River. I did not know what he meant, yet I trusted him completely. My prayer and puja for all of you is that you too know that trust in your Guru as I had in my Teacher, Swami Nityananda of Ganeshpuri. See the children, Ma, said The Swami, see them play in the River while the holy stay by the River, and that my children is how the River Poem got started this life. City’s old by the River and temples made of gold by the River. This Sacred Ganga is in all of you. All the words are in you. All the teachings are in you. You just have to be quiet enough to hear it all or at all.
It is a great and exciting journey as you sit on the shores of our Ganga in the sacredness of Kashi. I love you all so very much. Love Ma Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
