Evening Pujas and Prayers

Namaste my chelas all over the world
The knowing privilege of the breath can only come to one who is aware.
As you believe in that deep space with in you, that perfect beautiful place inside of you, the knowing privilege of the breath becomes more and more apparent.
As you open more and more to your breath you become more and more aware that death has no beginning or ending and that who ever you lost to death you need to know you never lost.
You are still breathing in their breath.
You are still breathing out their breath.
And as you grow toward an older age, your breath is handed down to those around you and to even those who you do not know.
A thought can not die simply because it does not exist in the first place.
A picture of life can always live behind the eyes of life and take you into the heart of death through love and the moment.
Last night at our Saturday Night Live Darshan, I took every one into the deepest meditation space that they ever were in before.
Now it is up to them to keep being in the space of love and enjoy the moment of knowing that the breath is a privilege given as a gift from the Gods and Goddesses.
Each time one comes to Darshan the acknowledging of this privilege and love of breath becomes more and more apparent.
The Prem Of Shakti comes to you in the awareness of the breath.
One enters into the Cubby Holes now with new eyes of awareness.
Not the eyes that can see only a short distance, the eyes that can see forever are behind the lids and goes deeper and deeper into the CENTER OF THE SKULL.
The space between two objects is the space of the Akasha.
When the breath stops for a split second or more this is called bardo or gap.
It is in this space that the center of the skull can be felt or at least acknowledged.
Meditation can bring you to the SEEING WITH OUT EYES, HEARING WITH OUT EARS AND SPEAKING WITH OUT A MOUTH.
In other words the gap or bardo or sacred space is the living proof that one can leave all CUBBY HOLES OR LABELS and enter into the SPACE OF THE SKULL.
To be able not to perceive yourself as anything or anyone else as anything, then you are no longer in a place of judgment.
This is the Spiritual Experience of BEING IN THE MOMENT.
The Space that The Guru Mother brought every one into last night touched upon the fluidity of who you are in the deepest part of the SENCE OF THE SELF.
Your Ma wants desperately to see you all in the clarity of God and Goddess heart.
This is a space which you all have left when you took your first breath and it is the space where you will return and did begin the journey of returning last night.
It is clear and transparent.
THE THOUGHTS DO NOT MATTER UNLESS YOU TRY TO SUPPRESS THEM.
My children this moment place your hands on the center of your chest, the spiritual heart.
Place your right hand first and then your left hand over your right.
Feel all emotions come to the surface of your thought mind.
Then flood the emotions with the love you have for your Mother Guru.
Be aware and begin to breathe deeply into the center of the chest, the spiritual heart.
Take three breaths on the one breath and hold the breath.
In other words it will be like sniffing three times in.
Holding the breath say to yourself I AM LOVED, I AM LOVED, I AM LOVED.
Then slowly let the breath out in three different parts.
Let one third of the breath out, then another one third and then the last third of the breath.
Now contract your stomach and try to bring the belly button as close to the spine as possible and then with your minds eye, up.
Feel the cave or cavity in the pit of your belly.
No matter your body type big or small or in between, you can all feel this bend in the belly.
Keep the breath out for a longer time then you think you can.
Then slowly sip the prana in to where it wants to go.
Lower your hands and let the prana become natural and flowing.
Touch the earth with your hands if you can and give thanks for the prasad of the precious breath.
You can do this for as much time as you have.
This is CALLED PRANA SHAKTI and you can always come to this place by practicing this PRANA EXERCISE.
Shakti Prana brings one to the awarness of the three gunas, sattwa, rajas and tamas.
The Fire Of Kundalini brings the heart to the state of sattwa, the source of inner peace.
My chelas you have a great treasure with in your being and this treasure is the great ability to control your own breath and your now life.
This is best done with a heart filled with devotions for the Paramaguru and Guru.
Appreciation for our Mother Kashi’s Ashram the Ashram of the Ashen One, brings an open heart to all who can feel gratitude.
In the Gita, chapter seven Lord Krishna speaks about the power of the three gunas, ( some call this the modes of nature)
Understanding where you are in the moment can also bring awareness of which Cubby Hole you are about to fall into.
Chelas, read this Living Prasad of Words written from the Guru Mother’s Heart to Her chela’s heart.
See if your heart can understand what your ego mind can not.
You have so many Divine qualities and your Guru Mother loves every one of them.
And if there is darkness in you, your Guru Mother never wavers in Her Love For Her Children.
I bring you this moment to the awarness of the seventh Cubby Hole, The Cubby Hole of INTENT.
Intent is that which you feel to do in the future.
Out tent brings the moment close to you in the moment.
Not the future, not the past, THE NOW.
Sattwa, when promoted brings you to the Out Tent and allows no time to procrastinate.
Rajas and tamas can be controlled with an open and full heart.
Tamas is all that allows you to procrastinate.
After you read your Darshan Line do something, any thing that you have put off.
This will begin your journey out of the SEVENTH CUBBY HOLD- INTENT.
My chelas write in and tell your Guru Mother what you understood in these words.
Breathe deeply in and out as you write.
I ask Mother Kundalini, the Sister of Mother Kashi and Mother Smashan to rise in the beauty of LIFE AND DEATH IN ALL MY CHELAS.
This is my Puja and this is my Prayer.
I love you all so very much.
My son Soo Se is Home and was my escort to Darshan night.
My babies are making their way Home to their Guru Mother’s Arms.
Love Ma Jaya
Tenzin Yangchen
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
Always at His Feet, Our Neem Karoli Baba Ki Jai
