Om Ganesha, Morning Pujas and Prayers. August 5, 1999
Namaste my chelas.
To be completely changed, just by meditation, in a short while is impossible. Chelas must make repeated efforts in order to experience a true transformation. For so many of my chelas, the change came slowly and fully. I watched from afar and I watched from close.
The beginning of being with Guru there is a great amount of Shakti. One tends to think that at the beginning there is more Shakti than any other time in the future or present moments at the feet of the Guru. Ironically there is less power and shakti at the beginning of being with the Guru. As the years go by the Shakti becomes more and more and goes deeper and deeper. For the chelas who really do not want God this life, the Shakti becomes too much to bear. Doubts set in and the Guru watches. Fear sets in and the Guru watches. The desire to run sets in and the Guru watches.
One thing that my Guruji and Swamiji taught me is that each time you become lion hearted and are able to lift your mind beyond the world around you, you will find when you come back to from meditation and certainty, the world will be calling you with a louder voice.
As you sit at the feet of the Guru, you become advanced on the path and are able to balance in a more even way
Yet, there is a change at the very beginning, when one does start to meditate. And, that change is a certain calmness and less stress. After a while, at the feet of the Mother, big changes occur.
Do not give up, my chelas. There is so much more in your lives that you can have through meditation.
These are my pujas and these are my prayers.
I love you.
Love, Ma.
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai.
