Om Ganesha,
Morning Pujas and Prayers from our Sacred Kashi Ashram
June 17, 2005
Namaste my chelas all over the world.
Lack of awareness can bring one through life with out living life.
And so I sit at my computer and teach you all how to get out of the deep dark space of Lack of Awareness.
In Darshan your Guru Mother brings you to a Light that is in you and is hidden by the world of IGNORED DHARMA.
The Shakti Energy in Mother Smashan Kali is sometimes called Mother Gauri.
She also, like Her Consort Shiva rides the White Bull Nandi out of the dark spaces of her chelas mind.
While you breathe deeply into the space of awareness over the head feel all the darkness that you bring to yourself begin to melt in the Fire of Lord Agni.
Breathe in and out for a total of five minutes.
Then visualize yourself sitting astride the Great White Bull with the Mother Gauri sitting behind you holding you with one hand and a lit torch with another.
This may take a little time and a lot of practice, yet my chelas it is worth it.
Do not force anything,
The Mother Gauri will come to you and extend a hand for you to take.
Mother Gauri is quite auspicious and brilliant and is brighter than the Sun
Breathe in and out of the top of the head or slightly over the head.
You will feel the crown of the head become warmer and warmer.
After five minutes, just open your eyes and stare into a candle’s flame closing your eyes when they begin to tear.
While your eyes are closed ask the Mother Gauri to bring you to the place of awareness.
When the five minutes are over, look around you and see how much more clear everything is.
Focus on something familiar and write in your journal what you see.
Describe it in detail.
Do this meditation in the mornings only for now.
It is very strong and very intense.
Surely after a while you will learn how to ride Shiva’s Bull out of all dark spaces.
As far as a distracted mind is concerned, one brings them selves into this distraction with intention as not to see or acknowledge the pain in them selves and the world.
The Cubby Holes seem to some as an intimate procedure.
Yet they are as big as the Universe itself.
Whole governments skip over things and thoughts of peace in order to make war a right way of life.
A distracted mind also leads to an empty heart.
Tell me what it is you want to understand in a big way and I will show you in a smaller way how the Universe is in you and how one individual can bring about the start of Peace in them selves and there fore in the Universe.
I can not tell you exactly what Peace is yet your Guru Mother can tell you what Peace is not .
When one does not have a Guru or Teacher one meditates on that which they understand as love or light and finds their way out of the darkness.
One can regain spiritual insight by watching the breath and understanding the world of matter and the world of spirit.
When you can bring both together you are on the way to understanding the way out of any small space that is uncomfortable.
Shiva Shakti entwines as the Union Of Opposites and yet the same.
Shiva Shakti awakens ability in all of you.
Shiva Shakti is The Bliss of Life.
You are the Source and you learn how to drink of this Source.
This is Awareness.
When you are stuck in Lack of Awareness, Pride becomes ego’s heart.
Gratitude is the smoothness in which one glides out of any of the ego’s traps.
Lack of awareness makes one very dissatisfied with what they have.
Nothing can fulfill them.
Gratitude brings back to the heart that you are always capable to rest in the Mother’s Arms.
My whole Being is always in the continuous state of prayer.
I am trying to teach you like the Baba taught me.
Identify yourself with the Mother’s and find how your life becomes THE ONE and duality has no place.
With Spiritual and worldly awareness your life becomes whole as you live from the Inner self of your Being.
My Pujas and Prayers go out to Mother Gauri.
Give them your hand Mother.
Carry them out of Darkness and bring them into the Light of your Heart.
Bring them Joy and the Idea of Peace.
Show them how to live in peace and bring peace to others.
This is my Puja and this is my Prayer.
I love you all so very much.
Love Ma
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
Always at His Feet Of Our Neem Karoli Baba Ki Jai
Perhaps it is a plant or flower or altar.
Take your time.
Then close your eyes and go over what you saw as best as you can.
Take another five minutes of deep breathing over your head then breathe into your heart and give thanks to Mother Kashi for such a Sacred Ashram that all the Goddesses and Gods feel comfortable and want to dwell Here.
If you are not familiar with the Mother’s then just place in your mind your Beloved or something beautiful of Nature who will carry you out of the dark space of Lack of Awareness.
