Guest guest Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Jai Amma Kali, dear brothers and sisters in Amma! Here is a wonderful excerpt from the book "Path of the Mother" by Sivitri Bess: Ammachi, thought by many to be an incarnation of Kali, explains: "Among all the gods, Kali is the only one who didn't marry. Eternal virgin . . . eternally celibate! Whom should Kali marry? Who can marry Her? Shouldn't there be two people in order to marry? Where is that second person? How could Kali's marriage happen? Kali is neither man nor woman. She is both. She is Pure Consciousness as well as Primordial Nature. She fills both outside and inside. Kali is the compassionate Mother of the devotee who longs to see Her as well as the fierce Bhadrakali who kills the ego of the egotistical. Kali is everything." Those of us who truly desire to free ourselves of cumbersome and inhibiting egotistical ways can meditate on Kali and get her blessings quickly. Why is this so? Ammachi explains that our minds are easily fixed on Kali's fierce aspect since that is what predominates in our own character. Most of us are of a highly active and easily distracted nature; we want excitement, adventure, romance, danger. Kali's form is suitable for this kind of passionate mind.

Guest guest Posted July 1, 2005 Report Share Posted July 1, 2005 Dear Muktimaa. When Amma was in Marin County in 2000 (after the tragic fire in San Ramon), I offered my humble home as housing for Amma's children. Savitri Bess and two other women stayed with me for Mother's stay in Marin. It was a truly blessed experience. I did Shiva puja every morning and they shared in the prasad of my worship before going to the hall. They also shared breakfast with me. Savitri's book had just been published. I have enjoyed it very much.
