Om Ganesha Morning Pujas and Prayers August 16, 1999
It is said in the Mundaka Upanashad that the self cannot be attained by the weak nor by the careless nor through aimless disciplines. But, if one who knows strives by right means, his soul enters the abode of God.
For years this Ma has been saying, “Kashi is not for the weak of heart. Kashi is for the strong of mind.”
One who lives in the light of God must serve humanity with the strength of the Gods. Taking care of the hungry, the poor and those who are sick, is the way of kindness taught at Kashi.
So many ask Ma how to see Baba and how to see the Mother. When one is kind to others the divinity of the Gods are shown to them over and over in many different forms. One can not see Baba with the physical eyes. In the place of the non breath God can be seen. The gap between the breaths is the place of the seeing chela. This comes after much kindness and service to others. When one lives her life with great compassion, then the eyes of God begins to open inside of their being.
In times of old one practiced austerity for thousands and thousands of life times until they were permitted to see the face of God. It is at this time of the Mother Kali in Kali Yuga that the face of God can be seen in the place of the non breath by simply leading a life filled with service and purity.
The eyes of wisdom is that place which one can begin to nourish when the breath stops during meditation and prayer. After you read these words close your eyes and look, and in the darkness see the light behind the lids, this is the place of wisdom. Practice this over and over during meditation After a while you will be able to keep your eyes open and a new awareness will come to you. You will be able to see God in many forms through sense sight touch hearing and taste. Oh yes my chela, all this is available to you now if you have the courage to stay on this path of service and truth. The wisdom eyes take over. A quiet comes to you as never before, a sacred space is yours to have. This abode of God is yours like the Upanashad says through discipline, not aimless but discipline born of yearning to see the face and heart of God the Mother. Be still my chelas and cultivate the eyes of wisdom and enter into the abode of the Gods. It is the most exciting time of my chelas lives. Kashi can hold you. Kashi can teach you. The sacredness of Kashi can enfold you. Kashi is the blanket that our Baba wears. Kashi is the teaching of our Swami Nityananda. Kashi is our home and the Home of our Baba and the Mother Kali. Know your Guru and you will know your Mother Kashi Ashram. Serve every one and God will serve you.
Bow low chelas to all the Gods. Learn from humility.
These are my pujas and these are my prayers.
This is a very deep prayer and puja, I would like to hear your feed back on this morning prayer. I love you. Love, Ma. Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
