Om Ganesha,
Afternoon Pujas and Prayers
Feb. 8, 2007
Namaste my chelas all over the world.
In loving your Beloved you have to simply enfold the love that already lives deeply with in you.
This is love that gleams in the heart of the devotee.
Divine love of this kind transcends the mind of the ego.
It is your essential nature.
Who ever experiences loving their Beloved is the very Essence of Divinity.
This type of love gives one the Grace to serve others with ease and graciousness.
Nagaraja is a form of Lord Shiva which is the King of the nagas.
The naga is the serpent that gives up the ego in the form of the serpent’s skin.
The naga is the protector of the holy and the sadhus and sanyasan.
In Kali Natha Yoga the Great Naga is always called when their is space between the earth and the body.
Nagaraja protects one when he enters into the profound waters of spiritual love.
Shiva in the form of Nagaraja, when the devotee goes into infinite bliss is always there watching, loving and protecting.
Lord Shiva makes sure that the devotee is always immersed in complete awareness.
Even though the devotee swims in bliss Lord Shiva always makes sure that awareness of earth is always there.
Our Baba Neem Karoli always taught me to stay in the moment of serving others and then take in the nourishing waters of meditation.
Thus one is able to always be filled on God and Goddess.
The vision of the Soul scatters in many directions when one sits with a quiet mind.
One may say how can the mind be quiet enough to have visions of the Soul?
The simplest way that our Swami Nityananda taught your Ma was to first watch the breath and then focus the mind on counting backwards from 1008.
No matter if you lose your place, you go right back and start again.
Desires and anger act like a smoke screen and obscure the focus of the higher mind.
When one calls on Nagaraja one finds the purity of the mind.
The Great Lord will always come to those who call.
Lord Shiva always resides in the region of the heart.
The Murtie of our Lord Shiva is directly across from His Form of Lord Hanuman.
Each at the opposite ends of our Ganga.
Any time one looks at the Murtie He is known to ignite the heart’s fire.
The Form that your Ma worships as our Laxmanji our Baba is The Ashen One.
I call on the Ashen One this moment to bless all my chelas will full and gracious hearts.
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
