Morning Pujas and Prayers
Sept. 18, 2006
Namaste my chelas all over the world.
Give the moment space.
Come to the center of it.
Come to the center of shakti.
Become mindful of the center of shakti.
What does the moment tell you?
Do not resist the moment.
Give the moment space.
This is the Mother’s Space in time and space.
Ask of the Mother WHAT DOES MY HEART REALLY WANT?
Sit quietly as you receive your answer and rest in the Grace of Baba’s Love.
Hold this love with compassion and the graciousness of living truth.
The natural components of our essential self is not fragmented into time space.
The moment brings the understanding of the moment when you are aware.
Here is a story to keep you all aware.
One time the daughters of pride and joy came to meet on a mountain path.
The daughter of pride was procrastination.
The daughter of joy was intuition.
Procrastination said to joy, of course I am the greater of us two.
Of course my Mother pride is much greater than your Mother Joy.
Intuition was intuitive enough to see the heart of the daughter of pride and knew that she had to see procrastination for what it was with her own prideful eyes.
Intuition said to procrastination, let us see if we can find a simple working man and offer him the power of procrastination or the power of intuition.
Intuition pulled procrastination up by her hand.
Intuition was intuitive enough to know that procrastination was too lazy to walk so the daughter of joy pulled the daughter of pride up from the mountain path and together they started to walk.
Procrastination wanted to stop all the time simply to procrastinate.
The daughter of joy was desirous of both of them to move higher and higher up the mountain path knowing that surely they would meet a simple mountain man.
Procrastination could not get her eyes off of the dancing girl named Intuition
Neither could this old worn looking man who was watching from the bushes.
His old wife was seeking berries and was softly singing.
Just then the daughter of pride and the daughter of joy came upon them.
Why is it you sit on the ground while your hard working wife picks berries asked procrastination secretly hiding a smile of victory on her beautiful face.
You see both girls were only 12 and procrastination did not have the time living yet to be too filled with laziness thus she was still quite beautiful.
The old man just smiled and said " i will pick berries tomorrow mean while my wife is picking for both of us and she is happy to do so.
Intuition was intuitive to know that the wife would always sing and work even though her lazy husband used her in such a foul way.
Intuition was ever so beautiful with the sun and the moon always shining on Her raven hair.
One could see their own reflection in her hair.
Mother, said the daughter of joy may I help you pick your berries and the one who picks the most berries will make a pie to be shared by the pickers.
Very gladly replied the old lady.
Procrastination sat down next to the old man and said, “kind sir. let us nap in the sunlight while those two fools sing themselves sick picking berries in the hot sun.
Then we will be the ones not too tired to eat the delicious pies.
Oh this is so fine said the old man.
It will do them good to work for one who is always looking out for them.
Intuition cried out that the best destiny for all of them would be futile if only two of them were working.
The old man and the beautiful girl procrastination just laughed and laughed and both said tomorrow in sing song voice.
The daughter of joy and the old lady finished together filling their baskets and were hugging each other though tired and bent they were both so happy as they danced to the old ladies and old man’s cottage.
There they preceded to make the delicious berry pies.
May i give one pie to my husband asked the kind old lady.
As the daughter of joy was about to answer, a beautiful melody could be heard coming from the place of the sun and the white out line of the full moon that one can sometimes see in the day.
The sun and the moon were singing to each other and the sun looked down from his high fiery perch and said OF COURSE THEY CAN HAVE PIE AS LONG AS THEY CAN COME HOME TO EAT.
Oh thank you the daughter of joy and the old grandma sang out together.
They waited and waited until Father Sun went down and Mother Moon rose high in the sky.
Still no one came to eat of the pies.
Let us not procrastinate or the pies will go sour.
We will save some for them said the daughter of joy.
One of the Mother’s of the Moon danced on Her own moon beam down to where the old man was and the beautiful young woman procrastinate.
The sun had withered the old man to a pile of dust and the daughter of pride’s beauty was all gone and in its place was just another old woman gray and wrinkled.
Where is intuition she cried out with a voice that cackled.
Intuition said the Mother of the Moon is with the beautiful old woman who grows more beautiful each moment.
Old procrastination tried to get up yet she found that she was too bent.
Just then the intuitive child of joy could be heard crying out to the Moon Mothers and the Sun Fathers to let procrastination have another chance and the old man to come to life again and leave his laziness behind.
The Sun and The Moon was so taken by the daughter of joy that they too used their intuition to teach the lazy two.
The old man’s dust was exchanged for his former body and the wrinkled old lady watching his movements with joy came to life once again a beautiful young 12 year old.
The Sun Fathers began to due pujas to the Rising Sun Goddess Mother Usha.
The old man and the daughter of pride began to walk in the sun with the scent of berry pie filling their nostrils.
Procrastination said to the old man, let us rest for a while, i am sure that intuition will save us a lot of berry pie.
And so they both laid down in the soft mountain grass.
Only to be burnt again for the old man and young girl were too lazy to even go under the shade tree.
The old woman became younger and younger even though she was sadden by her husband.
The child of joy being so intuitive said OH MOTHER ALLOW THEM TO FOLLOW THEIR OWN KARMA AND LEARN FOR NEXT LIFE, LET US NOT PROCRASTINATE AND LET US GO ON TO THE HIGHEST POINT OF THE MOUNTAIN COLLECTING BERRIES TO MAKE PIES FOR LORD SHIVA.
Holding hands they looked at each other and the older beautiful woman who once had the body of the old lady smiled and said OH DAUGHTER OF JOY LET ALL KNOW OF YOUR INTUITIVE LOVE AND NOT LOOK ON PROCRASTINATION WITH DISGUST. LET US PRAY THAT MOVEMENT AND JOY WILL COME INTO BOTH THEIR FUTURE LIVES.
The beautiful older woman became the Goddess Destiny always listening to the intuitive nature of the daughter of joy.
The two can be heard singing to the Moon and the Sun as they pick berries of motion and movement and love.
And then one day as Lord Shiva was eating the delicious pies made of intuitive joy and changing destiny, He initiated the two ladies into Kali Natha Yoga thus they became the first woman to became Natha Yogi’s.
Pride is still very much alive and Her daughter procrastination is always present in every life time waiting to steal life and turn it to dust of pride.
