Khadgamala Stotram: Is It That Simple?

[Guest guest]

Hi Chumki:

 

It's a good question. Do we recite this hymn to become Mistress or

Master of the Cosmos? Well, ask yourself: WHO is that?

 

It is Goddess. It is God.

 

So rephrase the question: Do we recite the Stotram to become God? Yes.

 

Is it that simple? Nothing simpler: The sages and scriptures all

assure us that we are already HER. We have only to realize it.

 

Is it easy? On this Earth there are at least 7 billion souls. Of that

number, how many are Self-realized? I doubt it exceeds three figures,

or maybe -- optimistically -- four figures? (Though I am told by

those who know better than I that the process is accelerating and the

number will soon begin to explode.)

 

So no, it's not easy. To use the old cliche, it's like walking the

blade of a knife. Which is precisely why it's nice to have a

beautiful puja like Khadgamala to help us find the energy to

presevere and success in our quest.

 

And yes, I would say it definitely must be done with devotion in

order to achieve its full effect. I'm hoping to post a FAQ by

sometime tomorrow that will memorialize a lot of these questions and

answers for easy reference.

 

Thanks for a great question.
