Thank you, thank you, thank you Maa for this beautiful list
and message. We all need guidelines and goals to keep
walking down that good road.
You are our Beloved Guru, you always know!
I am copying this message from you now, for my altar
and the refrigerator is always a good landing place.
Love to you Mother

These lists of qualities always serve to remind me just how far I
have yet to go. I pray you will shorten my journey Mother. I have
always liked the one from Galations (if I remember correctly):

"The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, gentleness, and self control, against which there is no
law."

Interestingly, this list of "the real wealth..." arrived on the forum
the same day I received a bogus notification from Spain that I had
been entered and won sixhundred thousand and some odd dollars in the
Spanish state lottery. It is a skam designed to get one to pay
certain transfer fees to receive the prize money. I never really
believed it, but for a little while, given my current financial
circumstances, I did imagine what I might do with the money when I
got it. I hoped it was true. When I found out it wasn't , well, no
big deal. But Maa's latest message does make me wonder...

Dear Shree Maa,

I love your words - they are so relevant to all of humanity
especially people doing sadhana.

Puja and chanting are very very important. Equally important is self-
inquiry. Meditating on the words that you have given us in self-
inquiry.

Thank you dear Maa.

Jai Maa!
Vasantha

Dear Shree Maa,
The last line of your message is not, 'think on these words' or 'try to attain this' but
"I bless you all with this character." You have given us a gift/ I
receive this real wealth as the gift of your grace, I receive this
character that you have blessed me with, as a loving gift from my
Divine Mother, knowing full well I could never attain this on my
own..... and I thank you.
Namaste
I pranam.

Beloved Maa,

Thank you for the abundant blessings.

You bless us in person, you bless us online, you bless us in our
altars, you bless us always, everytime, everywhere...

I want to share with group Swami's blessing after a fire ceremony.

"Three lifetimes filled with bliss is the blessing from Jamadagne,
from Kasyapa three lifetimes more. All the Gods and Goddesses grant
three lifetimes filled with bliss. Let that be unto you , three
lifetimes filled with bliss".

With love
Latha
