Om Ganesha,
Morning Pujas and Prayers

Namaste my chelas all over the world.
To understand the 11 Karmic Spaces is to understand the illusions put before you by Maya.
Take the first of the Karmic Spaces JEALOUSY.
When jealousy raises its head, one can feel like they are stuck in the vast sea of rolling sands and are unable to get out.
The world of peace is shattered and jealousy steals your moment.
Yet that which you are jealous of is yourself.
When you see the expansion of another’s life, you begin to think that you are standing still and that the one whose life is expanding is way beyond you.
In actuality your heart is way beyond your mind and you can have the expansion of the Self this very moment.
Knowing that you can learn from your own innate wisdom can stop the turmoil’s that entering this Karmic space can bring.
Jealousy is simply a mirage, a place you think exist and as it eats away at your heart, it does exist in your mind.
This gives birth to the open space of Anger.
When anger grabs hold of you, the next time simply say WHAT AM I ANGRY ABOUT?
Examine it.
Turn it around in your mind.
Doing this you will watch your anger begin to dissolve.
Jealousy and anger, you do not need them and yet here they are dancing illusions dance right in front of us and our minds are the great rehearsal stage.
Thinking that you can get rid of jealousy and anger by your mind brings you to the space of Pride.
YOU CAN DO IT CRIES OUT THE EGO.
YOU NEED NO HELP.
And while all the help you do need is the understanding of pride it is the Guru, Teacher and such that points out your qualities of understanding Jealousy, Anger and Pride
You can say to yourself, what is this jealousy that brings anger and what is this anger that brings pride?
You do not have to even get an answer.
You only have to put the question out to the universe.
For a moment a brief cloud will gather in the sky hiding your view from your heart and then after a while asking the question shall in itself bring you answers.
Pride calls you to the understanding that you do not need to ask, that you are really ok with out understanding, thus pride makes room for the sneakiest of the Cubby Holes Indifference.
The ego mind says YOU DO NOT NEED UNDERSTANDING OF PRIDE, JUST KNOW YOU ARE RIGHT.
Then you become indifferent first to your jealousy then to your anger, then to your pride, and of course you have just opened the gate of indifference.
There the heart becomes limp and just can not comprehend why you can not feel.
Feel love.
Feel being loved or feel loving.
Then one closes to the universe and opens to the EGO OF SELF THOUGHT AND SELF INDULGENCE
Over and over the lower mind dances with the ego mind, making sport of time and place and bringing thoughts constantly in every day living.
You get so involved with SELF INDULGENCE and saying the same things over and over in your mind you forget to live or even to have any awareness of life around you.
This brings you to the Karmic Space Of Lack of Awareness.
I always get sad when I know my chelas are trapped in this Karmic Space.
For with out awareness we miss so much of our lives.
And then Intent disappears in the space of procrastination.
One has no awareness what they are bringing to themselves and to others so one says I SHALL PUT THIS OR THAT OFF, FOR DOING IT WILL NOT BRING ME ANY KIND ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
One begins to want what they think that they do not have and this brings one into the Cubby Hole Of Worldly Desires which could be labeled EGO’S WANTS.
One then stirs the space of turmoil and confusion as they begin to abuse power.
Power of who they are and how much they think that they know.
Which then brings one to the trickiest Cubby Hole DESIRE TO BE RIGHT.
And then of course the Attachment to the Desire to be right.
And there are your 11 Karmic Spaces.
Filled with doubt and unanswered questions and loneliness.
Now these Karmic Spaces are not all negative news.
When you can conquer even one slightly you let the suns rays into your life and the delirium of jealousy begins to be brought into your consciousness of awareness.
With the warm sun of consciousness is awakened one becomes comfortable in their own skin and finds no need to be jealous.
The thirsty wind of anger ceases to blow so strong.
This does not happen in one or two tries it certainly takes practice and I am willing to teach you all how to have understanding of not just the negative part of the cubby holes but the positive as well.
The same wind brings understanding of false pride and one begins to come out of delusion’s pride.
Thus the egos thoughts begin to dwindle.
The self begins to expand and may even subside for a moment.
Ignorance of ones wisdom begins to lift and reveal ones innate wisdom.
So you see the Karmic Spaces can bring boundless expansion of the self.
Pride buries itself and indifference does not even get to be born.
One begins to see intent take form.
And this my chelas brings joy to the chela’s heart.
What you thought you wanted more than anything of the world begins to diminish.
All of a sudden you understand that you are unconditionally loved by the Mother and now you can give unconditional love.
You are beginning to have an understanding of all the Karmic Spaces in other words you are beginning to live like you have never lived before.
I love you all so very much and look forward to bringing this Darshan Line, THE PRASAD OF THE MOTHER to all of you as you read it unedited and filled with the moments grace.
Love Ma
Jai Kali Ma Ki Jai
Always at His Feet Of Our Neem Karoli Baba Ki Jai
