Om Ganesha, Morning Pujas and Prayers. Oct. 31, 1999
Om Ganesha, Namaste my chelas, The more I see what is going on it the world, the more I find the greatness of our Kashi Ashram and the beauty of sitting at the feet of my Guruji. My Chelas, do not take one moment of your life for granted. It is so rich and full and filled with love and God. Now here are your Morning Pujas and Prayers, coming from the Mother’s heart and our Bagala’s Temple in Brooklyn.
Every human heart needs a time of silence. One needs to hear the Mother in the silence. The Shakti of Mother Kali is accumulated in that same silence. Those who radiate joy toward others have tasted this Mothers silence.
When one serves others, like we do here at Kashi, there is a need to take silence every day of our lives to refresh and to refuel.
When you have been with the Mother in Her silent womb, you are better equipped to bring silence to others, to be able to relieve shattered hearts through your own stillness.
This is a teaching of service. The silent space we all take leads us through the chaos of the world holding the Black Mothers Sword. In my silent heart, I hold my Babas feet.
In my silent heart, the Mother Dhumavati dwells, the Wild Goddess of Smoke from the Sacred Dhuni. In my silent heart, the smoke of life, the pain that I see every day is offered to the Smoky Mother. Close your eyes, my chelas and feel the pain in your being evaporate into smoke. Ask Mother Dhumavati to take it all. These are my Pujas and these are my Prayers. I love you all so very much. Love Ma Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
