Guest guest Posted August 18, 2002 Report Share Posted August 18, 2002 Yesterday, net surfing, I shambled somehow onto a message board domiciled in Bombay, a general discussion board, and stumbled onto the most provocative post re Ganesh. I don't think I could find the message again if my life depended upon it, but here's its gist: Have you moved from a mere appreciation of Ganesha, or a mere scholarly interest, and have you commenced a dialog with Him in your heart? Have you made your heart a home for Him…can the two of you talk things over there many times during the course of the day? Let's pull over to the side of the road for a minute. How many of us here can say yes to all that? If we can say yes, how often to we forget to talk things over with him because Ego has An Agenda and has seduced us yet again into dropping everything and high tailing it the hell out in a rush in some arbitrary direction? (First one to say this never happens in the course of their day gets a fat lip.) That was the interesting part of the message. The rest was fascinating. Its gist was, ok, now that you've got dialoging down and you even remember to get in touch many times during the day, what comes next? Do you think Ganesha just wants to sit around in your heart waiting for you to speak up or do you think maybe, maybe He'd like the two of you to move on even from that? Where is the path headed? Are you progressing along it or are you stuck in your heart-home at the let's discuss stage? What next? Man, what a message that was. I had the sense the writer was an ordinary Bombay citizen, spiritually a bunch of steps ahead of the crowd. Man, what a message that was… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2002 Report Share Posted August 27, 2002 Devotion is fine its perfect but if you grab it, hold it and become blindly attached to it, it is not devotion anymore but an attachement... , "aumganesh" <aumganesh> wrote: > May I share a quip that came to mind: In devoted seekers of God, > sins find no shelter. > > Aum Ganesh > > , "aqesa" <aqesa> wrote: > > You said it, "we can get stuck in devotion".
