Om Ganesha Morning Pujas and Prayers August 28, 1999
Namaste my chelas, When one can gain mastery over the Pranas, the vital forces of life, a large cave of wisdom opens up with in them. The void that is left when one gives up attachments is a emptiness that will be filled eventually by the grace and beauty of the Mother. In the absence of anger a form of non violence and compassion can be achieved.
When the mind becomes serene and controlled, patience becomes a way of life instead of just a virtue.
If my chelas can only realize that they at all times, they lie in the jaws of King Yama, the God of death, they would make their lives a moment of art and happiness.
The soul passes through many life times and different bodies. Why not at this moment be determined to live this life with the fullness of the Mother at the feet of the Guru.
Blessed is our Kashi of Neem Karoli Baba. Blessed is this Sacred Ground He Walks upon. Blessed are all His children who repeat His name over and over and over.
Seek the wisdom of the Dharma at the feet of the Guru before old age takes you to the Jaws of Death.
As you follow the path of the heart, the Gurus heart follows you. Your chance of liberation at the feet of the Guru is so great that all will know of your heart as you enter into the place of Samadhi.
Your chance of liberation at the feet of the Guru who sits at the feet of Her Guru is greater than any thing you can imagine.
The spirit of time is upon all of us, yet when you sit at the feet of the Guru, there is no time and there is no space, there is only chela and Guru and then there is only Guru as you begin the merge in the place of the divine light coming from the heart of the Guru.
Listen to your Ma my chelas, the Guru will do nothing to dispel your doubts and your fears. This you must do your self. It is time.
You have all reached the stage of entering into the heart cave of Samadhi. Now you must open the door and walk through. There is much light to be had at this time in all of our lives. A bright light that will lead others away from pain and sorrow and karmic lifetimes.
This is the time of the Guru. Kashi is the Sacred Home of Neem Karoli Baba and the Mother Kali. When you come to Kashi, the very scent of Her being will fill you with bliss. The jaws of death can hold no power in Kashi, only Shiva reigns over Kashi with his Mother consort.
Welcome to the most sacred place upon this earth. The path of service is taught by example at Kashi. The temples are filled with accumulated pujas and Prayers from the lips and hearts of the thousands who have come here in the past 23, years.
May you all learn at the feet of the Divine Mother, the compassion of service. May you all learn from the Great God Hanuman as the Lord Ganesha, takes your hand and hears the beginnings of all your prayers.
These are my Pujas and these are my Prayers. Kashi is my Puja and Kashi is my prayer.
I love you all so very much. Love Ma Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai Jai Baba Ki Jai Jai Kashi Ki Jai
