To Pahari Maa on remembering

....Sooooooooo don't blame yourself! If you read about the lives of the

saints (Shree Maa, Ammachi, Anandamayi Ma, Sarada Devi and I believe

Swamiji) they were abused by their families and had unfortunate

experiences in their lives until they truly "remembered" who they were

and had the strength to stand up for themselves in their glory..

 

 

 

Dear Pahari Maa ~ thank you so much for the reminder. Standing up for myself

is the one thing I have always had trouble doing. I can stand up for other

people really well; I think that is why I spent my working life in

cause-oriented non-profits. Sometimes remembering who I am seems so easy, just a

change

of mind, and sometimes it seems near impossible. But I'll get there, thanks

to Swami, Shree Maa, Ammachi, Suzuki, Alan Watts, Joseph Campbell, Paramahansa

Yogananda ... the list could go on for a page; my search to remember has

been going on ever since I left home...and Pahari Maa, who helps me to remember

now. This is part of what a satsang is for, is it not? Love ~ Linda
