Om Ganesha, Morning Pujas and Prayers from our Sacred Kashi Ashram Sept. 11, 1999
Om Ganesha, Namaste my chelas. This dawn as I watched the lights on our Shiva in the Ganga, I gave thanks with the deepest of gratitude for the way my chelas are growing spiritually toward their own enlightenment. The dark early dawn spread itself like our Baba’s blanket over out Sacred Kashi and I was glad of heart as I rang the bells of the Mother. Last nights darshan was full and mostly silent as the breath of the Mother touched each chela. Indeed the Mother is filled with gratitude as She sits at the feet of Her Baba.
Once a chela grows spirituality there are certain tendencies and qualities that begin to manifest in him or her. When the ego starts to peel away or melt away, the natural character of the chela begins to manifest. Due to the pranayamas that the Mother has been teaching you, these manifestations are being set free. These qualities which are always there would have arisen at the feet of the Guru at any moment. Due to the practicing of pranayamas the true self of the chelas is making it self be known. What you would have yielded to at one time is ignored at this moment. Due to the fact that you are at the Mothers feet, your earthly existence can be explained in your heart of hearts. If you are at this time living at the feet of the Mother, then you will certainly understand your meaning of life. All impressions which at one time lived only in your subconscious, are surfacing. You will find that your values are changing. You are functioning at a different place in your being. As I took my chelas into the breath of Hanuman and the Mother the other night, I saw and felt you all changing and comprehending your love for your Guru and each other. Positive moments are taking the place of negative moments. I am thrilled to see this change in all my chelas from all over the world.
While you are living in such a love of the Mother and the service of human-kind you are strengthening your mind and your Shakti. You are also neutralizing your karma as you serve others. The intensity of this teaching is the intensity of the Black Mother as She roams the cremation grounds of your being. Here in the sacred Smashan, you overcome your destiny. Seek God through meditation and the practice of service.
Being always in the center of the Jiva Atman, you have little cause to pay attention to your ego as it calls you away from your path.
Perfect the silence of your being with the thought of the Mother always close at hand.
Your thoughts determine the nature of your spirituality. I will devour your thoughts through the grace of Mother Kali. I will take you to the center of your being through the grace of Mother Durga. I will take you across the sea of samsara through the grace of Mother Tara. I will ask for the aid of all the Mothers to liberate my children from the seriousness of Karma.
When you fear death it is because you identify with the body in too big of a way.
I said to our Baba, that this teaching has become rich and deep in a way that I never expected it too, at this time of our lives.
My Baba smiled and said your children are ready for the completeness of the Mother, teach them of the sacredness of this Blessed Kashi and the Blessed teachings of this Baba.
Just as the ocean has no conflict with its waves, so shall your chelas have no conflict with the teachings, which your Baba and Ma are the ocean of Bliss.
I say to you chela to let your life become enriched from these darshans.
Drink the words, the way your Ma drinks the Ganga every day.
I am devoted to our Baba and there for I am devoted to his children.
Let this teaching of service and Hanuman embrace all who comes to our Sacred Kashi. Let this teaching expand and bring peace and love to a barren heart. Every human being is entitled to love in its fullest measure.
Bliss is the manifestation of love and the purity of the mind as the soul is reflected through a pure being who sits at the feet of his Guru and has gratitude.
Let your true self rise to the surface of your life, my chelas. I wait by our River the Sacred Ganga. Let these words be the waves of the River Herself.
These are my pujas and these are my prayers. I love you all so very much. Love Ma Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
