Om Ganesha,
Morning Pujas and Prayers

Namaste my chelas all over the world
Let us begin to feel the presence of the Universe inside of us.
Doing this for a little while brings about a new trust and you feel less afraid.
Yet you must know anytime you open up to more shakti power more of the old fears get flushed to the surface of your mind.
Knowing that you have allowed so much light inside of you eases fear away.
The greatest fear one has is the fear of the finality of Death.
If you have difficult focusing on Death, say the word out loud.
Death Death Death.
Have direct awareness of how this word sounds on your pallet after saying it over and over.
It loses its ability to create fear.
Associate the word Death with your thinking process.
Pay attention to the sensations around your heart.
Feel the freedom of acknowledging Death.
Face the possibility of you dying in the next 24 hours.
How would you like to live this next day.
Notice how so many boundaries fall away.
The moment becomes pure and natural.
One says WHAT SHALL I DO WITH THIS DAY?
You will be surprised how the moments become a time of beauty of joy and happiness if you truly place yourself in this moment.
This is the true meaning of non separateness.
This is the day of the natural recognition of your place in time and space.
Wisdom of on coming death brings you to the understanding of the natural state of the open door of Death holding the hands of Lord Yama.
It is easier to interrupt death than to interrupt love.
Death is Death and has a heart.
There are no complicated states in the path of Death.
Love has many paths and roads and turns
One may think that he will not see the moon or feel the warmth of the sun upon their back.
If you can remember the sun and the moon in the now you will not forget it in the moment of death or beyond.
One may think that after death is nothing but non being and oblivion waiting for us.
This scares us and yet one does not truly believe this.
One only has to look at a seed to understand the nature of reality.
The blossom that grows into the flower and brings us joy soon withers and falls to the ground and nourishes the earth.
The flowers that are picked for our Pujas can be admired and love and still they will wither and again will nourish the Mother Earth.
There is an internal conflict that one has with the ego that brings fear.
The ego brings us thoughts of death that has no meaning only fear.
The Guru Mother brings you thoughts of Death that is filled with hearts own love.
Death is not a tyrant He is pure love.
One may not want to run to death away from the pleasures of life.
Yet one can accept Death and bow before their own funereal pyre explaining to Yama that this is the fire that they will light themselves.
When there is bitterness and anger in your heart it is hard to give up thinking that you have many years to play with anger or jealousy.
Yet your Soul knows different than this.
Truly you do not want to live until you die stuck in any form of Karmic Space that will not let you enjoy the dying process.
I believe in my heart what my Baba taught me to be true, that all children should be able to serve the dying and make friends with the thought of death.
We have raised hundreds of children who have served the dying and then took care of the dead with a song in their hearts as they watched life disappear and understood Deaths approach.
Your essence was not born and thus it will not die.
Your essence will not turn into a non being.
It is not a non space.
It is a moment of instant release that comes upon you, a blessing if you will.
Instead of asking why I sit with the dying, and just give them all my love and my gratitude of giving me the great honor to be able to accompany them to the Great Golden Arch Way.
All the impressions of life passes throughout the Golden Arch Way and one simply brings wisdom with them inside of their Essence.
They who lack discrimination is life is usually not steady enough to appreciate death.
One only needs to call upon their Beloved to accompany them on this journey of Death.
I love you my chelas.
Love Ma
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
Always at His Feet Of Our Neem Karoli Baba Ki Jai
