Energy of transformation that lead to healing [Lalitopakhyana (felica)]

Raji,

 

You questioned:

I can speak only from my own experience, thus:

Where I come from (California), we say death *IS* change - synonymous.

I have found, in my own experience, there is a necessarily destructive

element to radical change. YMMV, of course. The destructive nature of

change is less apparent when change is incremental. Less apparent =

veiled only to the unobservant or ignorant, but still apparent to

those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.

 

For me, each time I have effected a change, I have lost friendships

along the way. Of course, I have gained new friends, new wonderful

relationships with fascinating people. :-)

 

But, always, there is a period of mourning the loss of old friends who

were unable to relate in the new way. This melancholy is one of the

ways I experience Lord Siva dwelling on Meru and in the ghat always

accompanied by his demons which are his friends. Like Buddha

welcoming his demon Mara, the muscles in my body no longer tie

themselves in knots over my demons. :-)

 

That is how I have internalized and transmuted to gain a natural

equinimity.

 

One avadhut, Dadaji/Mahendranath, guru of some Western Naths, was very

attached to equipoise. I strongly suspect this attachment to

equipoise was precisely because, as Lalita Devi has noted in her

account of her time spent with him, Dadaji was anything but

equinimical. LoL.

 

Lalita's account, if anyone is interested, can be found here:

True, true. :-)

>Hello felicia,

 

Such loss I too experienced, I use to experience a sense of vaccum in my

life during my puberty days. But, when I sat before my goddess picture -

somehow, tears use to roll down my eyes and I felt light.( That period of

melancholy what made me to chant LS. This gave me lot of peace but always

temporary.

 

I donot go and venture into different religion - not even out of curiosity

-for me My LORD was enough i felt - WE hinud's believe in guru diksha - i

met our guru whom we call ACHARAYAL, and asked him to initiate me into LS

instead he only blessed and asked me to continue chanting. That day, i

poured my heart out to my goddess. I felt she did not accept my genuine

prayer - then my parents consolded me saying that GURU WILL COME WHEN YOU

ARE READY.

 

I AM NOT AS CONSERVATIVE AS I SOUND. I JUST DONOT WANT TO CONFUSE MYSELF

WITH TOO MANY STUFF. ALL RELIGION PREACHES THE SAME. WE TAKE WHAT SUITS

US.

 

Felicia, did you receive MY MAIL - I have writtern in detail of my

understanding of Inner BHandasaura.. I have not received my own mail . If

you have then. what do you think of my understanding of Bhandasaura. Your

feedback - is what prompted me to finish it. I was scratching my head for

word ''attachment. Please, give your comments. So far, I donot see that

mail in my mail box.

 

I sincerly thank you for your contribution. raji.
