Om Ganesha,
Morning Pujas and Prayers
December 16, 2004
Namaste my chelas all over the world,
Every one who walks the Mother Earth is undertaking a spiritual journey.
A journey that continues after many life times.
An on going journey of the Soul.
All of life has a spiritual purpose.
Every moment and every interaction with others can be used for spiritual growth.
When there is A LACK OF AWARENESS, then there is so many moments that you have let pass.
The Atman is the Spiritual Essence of all who we are.
It is refered to differently in all traditions.
To some Yantra has Mantra as its Spiritual Soul or Essence.
The Goddess of the Soul is the Deity of certain Mantras.
The Guru gives one a Mantra that they have had in many life times and there for sounds familiar to the tongue and then to the heart after a while.
As one ascends toward their own Beloved, the mind becomes controlled in meditations and then more and more in life.
So many choices depend on your deepest desire to follow your heart instead of your mind.
Just like the water of Mother Ocean that evaporates into the sky and falls back to Earth in the Form of rain, so does the thoughts that are let go clear the way for the Essence of God and Goddess to fall in the Hearts of the Seeker.
One of the aims of meditation is to bring an end to ignorance and duality.
The aims of the Karmic Spaces is to show you that duality is not necessary and the Oneness if full always and is never empty.
The Essential Self is calm, pure and relaxed.
This is the higher mind.
This is the higher ego.
The higher ego and mind is that which is buried beneath the fog of ignorance.
Meditation clears ones whole Being from the Worldly Desires that keeps you from your self.
This Cubby Hole is the one that calls you constantly with thoughts of grandeur and illusion.
There is nothing wrong with enjoying life’s pleasures, yet to not be attached is the secret of joyful living.
The Divine Light in each Karmic Space can call you loud and clear when you are in your heart.
It is this space where you take hold of your Beloved’s hand and enter into the clearness of Advaita.
Your Beloved devolves into the Formless and you are free and out of all Karmic Spaces.
They crumble and fall into oblivion.
This takes lots of practice from a Pure Place.
Yet it can be reached by every seeker’s heart.
A willingness to learn and know the Guru’s Heart’s Teaching brings an attitude that is filled with humility thus leading to the eradicating of the Karmic Space of Pride.
This is the chance that one takes and indeed it is a chance that you may not be ready to leave the familiar for the beauty of God and Goddess.
And yet your own Shakti is pushing you toward The Oneness.
The electricity in your body is also outside your body and in every cell and atom.
One puts up buffers between the heart and the mind.
The mind of the ego keeps saying that your heart is damaged and betrayed thus keeping you tight and with a dark heart.
It is the mystic that wants to defend the heart.
It is the darkness that threatens the heart that the Mother Kali takes from you.
She brings you to the bridge that gives you access to your own Divine.
Your Beloved is your love and you are the love of your Beloved.
The Cubby Holes caters to the force of duality.
The heart flows with the energy that is in all of us and lets us experience the State of Oneness due to the experience of the Natural State of the Beloved and the Loved.
This moment allow your own love for life and God and Goddess to come into your consciousness.
This is your own individuality and yet Cosmic Love is the Unity of Oneness coming from your own individuality.
You know the Mother Kali in your own way as She spreads Her Love in you and deep into your heart.
How do you fill your true purpose?
Simply by offering yourself to the Beloved of your Heart over and over again.
What is your response to this Darshan?
Can you feel the Mother wanting you to understand your own heart?
This is about you and your Guru or you and your Beloved.
Now one else is involved.
The Mother influences all you think and care about.
She helps you to care enough about yourself to care about others.
The longing is not for the past or the future.
The longing is for the God or Goddess in the Now.
The Light surrounds us and yet the ego blinds us.
Now visualize above your head a great round orb of light that drips into your body drip by drip.
Your whole earth body knows that you are created by this Divine Light.
Your whole Soul body knows that you are protected by this Divine Light.
It is just a matter of letting the darkness out and letting the Black Mother transform the darkness into the succulent Light that has always been there.
This moment feel the Great Light filling your heart and going out to the world.
Breathe in the Light and know that you are never alone.
I call on the Greatness of the Mother’s Light.
I ask this Light which is a living breathing entity to always have every one of you aware of its existence.
This is my Puja and this is my Prayer.
I love you all so very much.
Love Ma Jaya
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
Always at His Feet Our Neem Karoli Baba Ki Jai
