Om Ganesha,
Evening Pujas and Prayers
As I make ready for our Thurs. Night Darshan, I am amazed how much I love to Teach and Share even after so many years.
Each word that is said or in this case written keeps our Kashi alive in every cell of our Beings.
The desire or intention to meditate on the Sacredness of our Holy Grounds brings one into the SPACE OF DIVINE GRACE.
The quality of the heart is more and more refined when one sits and meditates on the Big Mind, The Higher Self, The Greater Mind.
The Greater Mind knows no limits not even the limits of the 11 cubby holes or karmic spaces.
To engage with oneself as you meditate brings you awareness of any imbalance.
In your self reflective consciousness one sees clearer than ever before.
A balanced awareness can be understood if you can imagine a fragile feather in your hand in a light caress of a breeze.
The gentle wind will take the feather for a ride on the winds breath.
Yet if you make a fist you will crush the spine of the feather and it will just be a broken beautiful object.
The mind must be treated gently too.
When the Mother Guru says bring the mind back to the breath, I do not mean to grab hold of it tightly and tense your whole body.
Gently just like a floating feather, bring the mind back with out worrying so much if it comes along to the awareness of the breath or not.
I love you my chelas.
Feel this love like never before and always bring the mind back to this love and the heart will follow.
This is my Puja and this is my Prayer.
Love Ma Jaya
Tenzin Yangchen
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
Always at His Feet, Our Neem Karoli Baba Ki Jai
