Om Ganesha, Morning Pujas and Prayers from our Sacred and Blessed Kashi Ashram Sept. 22, 1999
Namaste my chelas, Think a moment of being without ego. Think of the freedom and a place inside of you can give freely of the Mothers love that you have received all these many years. Freedom that springs from the absence of ego. Imagine that you have let go of your ego. You have let go of that place that dominated you all these life times. Feel the gap, the gap where the ego was. Stripped of the ego the soul stands naked. With out ego, no karma can be created. With out ego you can sit in meditation as long as you want. With out ego you can not be hurt. With out ego the moment is pregnant with love. Here in this egoless place, there are vast possibilities. There is the great possibility of true happiness. There is the great possibility of giving and love giving. There is the great possibility that you can stay calm and centered all your life long. There is the Great possibility that you can reach enlightenment at the feet of the Guru. There is the Great possibility that you will suffer no more judgment of others. Think now my chelas of the wonderment of being with out ego. Karma can not crystallize.
When the chela is trying to attain the ego less state, the anger sometimes comes in for no reason.
This very moment I want you to breathe into a imaginary empty space inside of you. Then breathe out the clarity of Love. See how you feel. Where is that empty space? If you really concentrate you will see that at first that empty space is in your chest. After a while that empty space is in your head as thoughts begin to stop.
When you pursue the Mother the Mother turns and catches you. You can pursue the Mother in this empty space that is the void of God. It is as open as the vast blue sky. In this empty space you become likened to Shiva. In this empty space you become the Mother. Do you see my chelas, this all happens because you are imagining that you gave up your ego. In the moment that you have imagined that you gave up your ego, you truly did!!!
My prayers go out to Mother Kali. It is She who dwells with the Lord Shiva in that wonderful space. Mother Kali, take my chelas to your breasts in the emptiness of your being. These are my Prayers and these are my Pujas.
I love you all so very much. Love Ma Kali Ma Ki Jai
