Walking the Path

[Guest guest]

Namaste dear friends,

A short while ago i sought Swamiji's assistance in posting on the forum he asked whether I could write about the changes that have occurred in my life because of this discipline and how I felt.

Though I have written on this in some way, I feel there is something missing, as though the job is incomplete.

One of the changes which I did not make mention before is offering of meals before tasting or eating. Throughout the preparation of a meal, Maa has advised that we recite the Gayatri mantra-

om bhur bhuvah svahtat savitur varenyam bhargo devasaya dhimahidhiyo yo nah prachodayat

In observing this practice, i find that the mind and hands are guided as to what is required for the meal. After it's preparation, the meal is offered using the , love and wisdom. That way all levels of the body are being fed.

 

Jai Maa Jai Swamiji
