Eric and Family:Maa-end of doubt

Guest guest

Namaste Eric and all family:

So many of the sadhu teaching stories teach us that even the Great Ones can be

trapped by maya and fall. And when they fall, then dust themselves off, and

begin tapasya again.

A simple and very powerful prayer Maa and Swami have taught is, and I

paraphrase:

Mother Kali, please take the energy from the desires leading us to darkness, and

put the energy to those desires leading to the light.

 

I have said this many many times and it works. She is always present to help us

along the path.

Eric, if this does not answer your question, we can ask Swami.

 

Jai Maa Jai Swami

experiences or ancestral imprinting, one can develop awareness through deep

contemplation of the nature of what is so alluring in that particular habit of

counterproductive behaviour, and this awareness with time and cultivation may

free you from the cycle of cause and effects of these ingrained tendencies.

Asking for forgiveness from yourself, the divine, may support this process. The

repeated application of sadhana, spiritual aspiration towards the perfection of

one's dharma constitutes the tapasya, the friction or spontaneous heat aroused

from the burning flame of pure devotion. But can this tapasya ever completely

oxidize our karma without leaving a stain of residue after much arduous effort?

Maa, Swamiji, Kali, or Shiva. Take that form and think that they are with you

all the time and see how you feel. {Laughing} Just one week!

Love this Vishweshwar,Is this the Paraphrase of:om asatoma sad gamaya tamasoma jyotirgamayamrtyorma amrtam gamayaom From untruth lead us to Truth. From darkness lead us to the Light. From death lead us to Immortality.
