Guest guest Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 >From Awaken Children! Volume 3 "The bhajan began as usual at six-thirty. The Mother was playing the ganjira (a small hand drum with only one head). In a few minutes she put it down and picked up the cymbals and began playing. It seemed that the Mother was struggling to keep her mind down. Now she also put the cymbals down and sang, creating waves of unconditional bliss which radiated all around with Manase Nin Svantamayi... "Remember, 0 mind, this supreme truth: Nobody is your own! Because of doing meaningless actions, You are wandering in the ocean of this world. Even though people honor you, Calling you, "Lord, Lord," It will be for a short time only. Your body, which has been honored for so long, Must be cast off when life departs. For which sweetheart have you been struggling All this time, not even caring for your life? Even she will be frightened by your dead body And will not accompany you. Trapped in the subtle snare of Maya as you are, Do not forget the Sacred Name Of the Divine Mother. The Lord will attract devotion-soaked souls Like a magnet attracts iron. Position, prestige and wealth are impermanent; The only Reality is the Universal Mother. Renouncing all desires, Let us dance in that bliss Singing the Name of Mother Kali!" Singing with the Mother, especially in the evenings, is a joyous experience which opens the heart to a much more elevated plane of devotion. Sitting on the powerful spiritual wings of the Mother, the devotees and residents fly high every evening at bhajans, drinking in the nectarous bliss of Supreme Devotion. Each moment is an experience, exposing the heart to another spiritual treasure chest. Today also it happened. Everyone sang forgetting themselves." Tired of spam?
