Om Ganesha,
Evening Pujas and Prayers
January 3, 2005
Namaste my chelas all over the world,
Our bodies and our spirituality longs for the Sacred Feminine.
As you sit quietly you are able to feel the thirst for the Mother.
In every Karmic Space there is a whisper of Enlightenment.
As you are able to leave this Space this whisper becomes your voice of the feminine whether you are male or female.
The Feminine in all of us understands the balance of the two genders becoming one as love of the Goddess and God comes together as spirit.
The last step of Raja Yogi is the combining of Mother and Father where the knower becomes the doer.
The natural flow in the human consciousness brings about the continuous change of the impermanence.
In other words, to experience the Christ one must experience His Mother.
Once again the Feminine is the door that we all walk through.
The Virgin Mother held The Christ as The Mother Tara held Lord Shiva in Her Lap and breast fed Him to soothe the poison in His throat that He swallowed to save the world.
The Motherhood of God is the Womb of the Universe.
She will lead you out of the dark space of the lower ego and lower mind.
It is said in the scriptures of mostly all religions OBEISANCE TO THE MOTHER, OBEISANCE TO HER.
Love is the Divine Blanket of the Mother which She wraps around you to keep you protected.
The Mother brings to you the teaching of AHIMSA ( Non Violence ) as you begin to feel Her Loving Space of Samadhi.
I have spoken of angels and angels will make themselves known this year simply because you have listened.
Non violence expresses itself by having the absence of negative spaces.
One can not be revengeful ( revenge is the connecting karma of the first five Cubby Holes ) if there is no violence in their hearts.
Generosity is the key to getting out of the Dark Negative Spaces in ones life.
Non Violence is the Great Key to Universal Wisdom that is essential to all religions of the world.
One time there was a young sadhu who was sitting on the edge of the Sacred Ganga.
He saw a beautiful flower in full bloom, a lotus which was about to close its petals to the night air and give way to the night blooming jasmine.
The young Sadhu sat and sat and contemplated how he would pluck the lotus out of the Ganga and offer it to Mother Anapurna when the sun rose.
All night long the young sadhu thought of the beautiful flower at the FEET OF MOTHER ANAPURNA.
He could not sleep and could not meditate for his thoughts were going wild with joy.
He watched the Light of the Moon shining on the closed lotus and he was mad with joy.
He waited and waited and finally the first rays of Dawn Mother Usha began to shine over the Ganga.
The sadhu began to rise when he saw a water buffalo with a little boy on his back.
The water buffalo not looking or rather non knowing about offering flowers to Goddesses, became intoxicated with the Ganga’s Flowing Waters and stepped on the beautiful lotus flower stomping it into the mud at the bottom of this Sacred River.
The young sadhu became so angry and enraged that he picked up a stick and began to strike at the back of the poor intoxicated water buffalo.
The boy feel off the back of the animal and began to cry.
All of a sudden Mother Ganga rose out of the Water holding the hands of Her Sister Anapurna and screamed out to the sadhu STOP STOP STOP!
She then gently picked up the little boy and rocked him in Her arms.
Mother Anapurna hugged and gently kissed the water buffalo.
The sadhu was still angry and did not understand what happened.
He thought the Mother’s would be angry at the little boy and his buffalo.
Mother Kali then appeared and said to the sadhu HOW CAN YOU BLAME THE WATER BUFFALO FOR BEING A WATER BUFFALO OR THE LITTLE BOY FOR WANTING TO BATHE HIS ANIMAL IN THE SACRED WATERS OF THE GANGA?
In stead of thinking of this and that all night you could have bathed and lit candles and set them on leaves to flow down the Ganga.
You let your mind over take you and the dark spaces bring you to thoughts and actions of revenge.
I bless the boy and his animal and I send you to the jungles to learn the ways of destiny and sacred moments.
At that moment the water buffalo turned into Nandi Shiva’s Bull and the little boy turned into Gopala.
The sadhu was to roam the jungles until he found the way of kindness no matter what occurs in his life.
He always looked toward the River seeking the Gods and Goddesses to reappear.
So you see my chelas, the Gods and Goddesses were the angels that came and taught the Sadhu and at the time of his older years he came to realize that no matter what dark space of anger or jealousy or pride brought him to, their was always a way to learn from the positive goodness of God and Goddess.
My Pujas and Prayers go out to Mother Ganga.
Mother, take my children out of all dark spaces with understanding in their hearts and never judgment.
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
