We are leaving sunday from this place, going on sabbatical fer awhile. Work, passions, travel, family, friends, ceremonies new experiences beckon. We thank all who partook of our feeble attempts at writing n expressions of self. We shall see you next year I reckon. Here's wishing you all the Highest Good in all your endeavors.
"Q: Is there any such thing as a bad darshan?
MM: There is no such thing as a bad darshan. To think so is wrong, harmful, and dangerous. Darshan is completely impersonal from my side; I give what is needed. Reactions depend upon the people who take, not the Mother who give. Try not to impose on me your own hidden problems. Have the courage to face your own weaknesses and know that I am giving you help continually."
The picture is of a Lakota fella from around 1880's. Before U.S. government outlawed native American practices (native spiritual practices were restored, made legal to the people in 1975). It is a slightly rigorous ceremony dedicated to sacrifice and prayer fer others. We fasted this last weekend (some folks call it vision questing), anyway, Amma had shared it would be good to take a few years off before resuming practicing our own way Has been awesome. So we are off to pick up where we left off... my vacation is rapidly drawing to a close. We will see folks,that are close to the heart, that we have not seen fer 5, 6, 7 years, and it will be like no time or distance has separated us. Is the same here, there is no such thing as time or distance where the heart lives.
Q: Isn't climbing a mountain, with many different paths at the bottom that begin to merge when you approach the summit?
MM:Yes. And when you get to the top of the mountain, then you must go down again and help others up, according to their capacities and strength. There is no rest in this work; the highest serves most lovingly; the wisest listens best; the one who has seen gives his whole life to help others to see. This is the Divine way.
Q: I want to devote my life to you, Mother Meera!
MM: It is not necessary to devote or believe in me. If you are sincere to your guru, master, God, Absolute or to the Divine, it is enough and I will strengthen your faith. Finally, if you believe in God, that is enough for me. I suggest that you do your job and your duties wholeheartedly and joyfully and bring peace and happiness in your family and surroundings: do Japa, the chanting or repeating of the name of God (or whatever you believe in) and ask for whatever you want If you need my help I will help you, whatever path you may follow. For me there is no difference, All paths lead to the same goal, that is, to realize the Divine.
Q: What should I do with my negative feelings?
MM: You can offer all good and bad to me. It is better not to dwell on the wrong things you have done; you must go on and try to do better next time. Hating bad people will not change them - loving them changes them.
It has come as the unfolding of Divine Light...GOD has descended upon my house and told me that my religion is "THE" religion and all others are the way of heretics (in all humility, we call it "the" "religion of STAN" All who follow the blasphemous false religions will be cast down into a harem of their choosing (you get either 71 stud muffins or 71 reformed hookers)n be stoned fer all eternity! As his only true prophet (Jesus n Mohammad ordained me to be "THE" only true Prophet on earth), GOD has told me personally, that go out among the heathen n be intolerant, hateful n wipe out all unbelievers, cause my way....IS the only true way. And iffin you believe this to be true, I have time shares in Condos in the center of the Sahara desert ta sell ya
A quote: (Adilakshmi All religions are manmade to reach the Divine. All have the same goal but they are different paths. It is just like coming to Mother Meera. People who are near by come by walking, some come by bus or car or by train or by ship or by plane. Whatever may be the vehicle or direction to come to Mother, everybodie's aim the Mother.
Q:Many religions are fighting with each other and killing in the name of "their" God. Are the religions in the world going to change as man evolves?
MM: No, as long as human beings have different religions. There will be no end.
Q: Only when when man sees no difference in his religious faith and other religious faiths will the conflict end?
MM: Yes.
You folks have a great weekend, and iffin you dont.....well pretend you used up all yer bad ones n start over with a good one.......

A friend reminded me of an incredible experiance we had while in India awhile back. It was towards the end of a retreat at Penusila Ashram n they had the children from the school that is sponsored by many who are at this retreat. There were about 45 to 50 children from the ages of 3 to 6 or 7, they had just arrived and the teacher was getting them seated n organized, was so suprised how well they behaved. The teacher asked them to start singing the "Saraswati" mantra..........I stood transfixed by this sound from these little ones.......like being drowned in a golden white light....The most beautiful musical experiance we have had to date I reckon. I will no ferget the incredible beauty of those moments etched upon this soul by these children, a gift written upon this soul. ` Come, share your most treasured musical moments here........

Q: Why does the western fasmily breakdown but not the Indian family.
`: "First, in the west when there is no satisfaction in the sexual relationship, then both will look for another relationship. The man will secretly go to another woman and the woman will go secretly to another man. When each comes to know about the other relationship, both will suffer and then struggle to come to a compromise, trying to mend the relationship and at the end when it is not possible then they seperate. Secondly, when they have children, there is a difference in their sexual relationship and they look for a new relationship. In India, we do not have financial and sexual freedom and also the marriage is arranged by the parents or elders or other family members. Even though some people have all kinds of freedom, still they are afraid to choose their partners because of their culture and also their religious background. They are afraid of karma, of doing something wrong, thinking that the Divine is in everything and they offer their desires to the Divine. Even in India there are cases where people are free, but they are not respected in society. In some cases they are not allowed in temples and in social gatherings, marriages or festival gatherings. In western countries because of sexual freedom, people tend to live together for only some time. When their sexual life is not fulfilled, they seperate. At that moment, they do not see or realise that they are breaking up their own families and also other families. When they fall in love on an emotional level only, they do not comprehend how much they are damaging each other. When people concentrate only fulfillment of sexual desire, nothing else (would be any superficial ideals?), then husband and wife deceive each other. Even if husband and wife live in the same house, the husband has a physical relationship with another woman and the wife has a physical relationship with another man. They neglect their children."
I Send my Love, the refrain of a lonesome heart, To the one who receives its, timely arrival. Ahhhhhhh, the ache of a heart gone long, without the thrum of a hum, the radient touch from my love.
Send my Love across the ether, to the one who receives my Love. Let not this refrain go unanswered Amma. She, thy daughter in waiting, learning her own way. Send my Love, to her open heart... You know my highest good in thy daughter, who will receive my love............

This amazing song came from the lips of a 7 year old girl in Fadar's Cafe in Baghdad. A well known gathering place for poets, writers and dissidents. From the documentary movie "I KNOW I"M NOT ALONE" 2005. A reprint from a year ago post.
"Dont Play with me my Love I am the one who gives light to the Sun. Even tho I am the judge, I am being tortured. Because the rules of Love are judging me. I heal your Broken heart, But I cannot heal my own. For I am alone now.... I have only you to shade me I beg you....I've been dying for years. I do not want you to kill me. I will long for you until I die, until your Love awakens me.... I will long for you until I die... until your LOVE keeps me."
More than 3 years have transpired since making of this documentary movie.....I wonder if that little girl is still alive and or in possession of all her limbs..........

We dont usually read newspapers much, but when we do, we seem to gleam those items that are upon this heart. yesterday in LOS ANGELES TIMES and in USA TODAY:
~~"Aryan groups (white supremicists)are focusing on and have promised to assassinate Barrack Obama". ` ~"Gun sales are skyrocketing, even surpassing that of post 9/11, ... reasoning is peoples fears of riots resulting from economy and also race riots."
Under George Bush jr, the ban on assault rifles expired here in U.S in 2004, so people are buying the heck outta them to. ` Yes America has its share of fearful out of balance people (one need look no further than the white house to realize this fact).
So we ask fer prayers on behalf of Barrack Obama and his family, fer there safty n fer removing the obsticals before his incoming administration and actions they will take upon foreign n domestic policies, who may be able to reverse some of the catastrophic damage created by this Bush regime. Thank you. We wish you the Highest Good thru this weekend in all yer endeavors.
Those curves could turn a mans mind ta mush at a hundred yards. The yearning of gently caressing those warm silky smooth curves, sweet caresses unfulfilled. You return giving wholeheartedly, all of you.... under falls of of unremitting Ecstasy. Passion building, firmer embraces pressing home................The accelerator of mi new Ferrari!

We heard once that this mind, given ample time can be a terrible master, Fer this soul resides above. So we ask, why is the spiritual, only just a passing interest with the many? Why when a blog about drama n sex gets the highest views of interest? This attraction to the negatives, shared desires couched in what? Billions spent upon gossip rags, the thirsty beings, hungering fer the drama of others. Wondering, perhaps maybe the lack of livin the lack of giving the lack of going out ..... ......... really experiancing life... perhaps a reason fer these attractions... of the mind?
All religions are manmade to reach the Divine. All have the same goal but they are different paths. It is just like coming to Mother Meera. People who are near by come by walking, some come by bus or car or by train or by ship or by plane. Whatever may be the vehicle or direction to come to Mother, everybodie's aim the Mother.
