Guest guest Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 short excerpt from http://www.rethos.com/news/view/801-Amma-Retreat-Spiritual-Life-and-Parenthood (for the full experince see above link).... Ma may be Love, but WE do not know or understand what Love is. We can say the word and we think we know what it means, but it is something mysterious and infinite… Ma embodies Love as the Divine Mother with ALL of Her moods and powers. She can be fierce protective Durga, battling Maya on behalf of the innocent. She can be sweet Radharani, honorable Sita, contemplative Parvati, and She can be the Ego-killing Kali, taking the head so that we can fall into our unconditioned Hearts. So I understood last night, as I do now, that Ma was giving me exactly what I had come here for. I am in surrender to Her Grace for this chance to face my karma and clear it in this lifetime by moving the pain that only I have caused myself… I made that commitment coming into this body. That can only happen if I let myself feel the pain and face the emotions my fear causes me cling to in order to hide from it. This has been my practice for a long time, and Ma has been the guiding Force of that work for five years now. Well, all along She has been the Guide, but I have only recently become aware of Her relationship to my Soul as it's Master, and the One who embodies the lessons I need to learn. Here, in Her presence, the strength, speed and impact of the deluge is fierce… but I feel the Love in the swing of Kali's blade, even as the sharp steel of my own conditions touches my neck! Surrender and we are empowered, as our True Selves. We give up nothing but our pain and our fear of separation. We give up our illusions. What is left when all else drops away is our infinite truth and our pure participation in God's theatrical presentation of the Universe. We are experienced through as vibrations of His Intention, and the Mother is the agency of our Existence, Self-hood and Integration. ...
