To Prasadini on where is Mother

....There have been so many times that Mother has shown that She

is with me. Little things that may not mean much, but when they're all

put together, it shows me at least, that She is here, now, and always.

....there was the time I was walking down the street and tripped and

was surely going to smack into the cement and cringing at the thought

and all of a sudden the word "Mother" comes out of my mouth (not

seemingly generated by the brain) and I stopped - upright. It was as if

someone had caught me - I didn't feel Her hand, but I'm sure She did.

And many, many other weird little things that happen that I would have

to be really dense to not see Mother's hand. I truly believe that these

incidents are Mother saying "yes, I am here".

 

This child would love to be able to see Her everywhere and in

everything, but I think I am certainly not on the express bus, but on

the local bus. I get off and check things out and get back on the bus.

She makes Maya too interesting and real. I pray for the day when we can

all see that all is Her in Her wondrous play. She who is writing this

whole script.

 

 

 

Dear Prasadini ~ your comments about Amma touched me very deeply. How

wonderful to have a Mother who appears to prevent your fall. I am like you. I

get

off the train and get caught up in the beauty or the sheer interestingness of

maya, but, somehow I think this is part of it all. It is like a game of hide

and seek ~ where is Mother? Come and find me. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

 

Mother has created this beautiful playground. Sometimes it is beset with

trials (I am thinking of the old Candyland game now, if anyone remembers that).

But it is all Mother's Creation. Even Amma takes time to take joy in the

animals, or the ocean, or something someone (like the little chocolate thief)

does. I think our curiousity, our wonder is part of our coming to Mother. Even

when we are off the train, we are still on it.

 

It sounds a bit paradoxical, but I have always been struck by the paradox in

spirituality. Mother creates this universe as a way of both hiding from us so

we can find our way back to Her and also as a way of demonstrating that She

is Everything. Here, again, is one of my favorite quotes from the Chandi,

"...you are all creation existing as the mouth of the universe."

I am happy She has created such an interesting and wonderful playground.

Jai Jai Ma ~ Linda

And what's so interesting, and that I keep forgetting in this context,

is that this playground is nothing but Mother Herself playing - all of

the parts. A one woman show, writing, directing, acting. Whew, no

wonder She needs a thousand hands.
