Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 It's so hard for me lately to maintain a spiritual perspective. Things, little roadblocks, have been overwhelming me and it's hard for me to find that place of peace in my heart. Yesterday I dropped a box of liquor I was taking to the back room of my store and a bottle broke. Whiskey started pouring out and I slipped on the wet concrete and landed on my side in a pool of alcohol. I nearly started crying! There was glass everywhere and my jeans were soaked. I finally calmed down from that and went to Sam's Club to buy sodas and cigarettes for the store. When I was unloading into the back of a truck, I dropped two cases of Dr. Pepper cans and they went rolling all over the parking lot! I was getting really angry! Today my mom is getting to me and I don't feel very peaceful at all! Argh. Wish me luck!

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 Dearest Gabriela, I really do understand how you feel. We all go through times when the mundane just gets the better of us and we find ourselves practically thinking, "Mantra? WHAT MANTRA?!" Take comfort in the fact that our Amma is still there, no matter how much or how little we think of Her. Maybe this is a sign that you need to look more towards the ground right now. What is pulling you there? With love, At Amma's Feet, Erica Ammachi, Miranda Soliz <msoliz2000> wrote: > It's so hard for me lately to maintain a spiritual > perspective.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2003 Report Share Posted October 30, 2003 Gabriela, Could it be that there is a message in these occurances? Could it be that the liquor, the cigarettes, the Dr. Pepper's are the problem? Could Amma be saying, "This stuff will hurt you." Around Amma so many messages are sent our way. Or maybe it was just a bad day;-) Jai Ma, Omana Ammachi, Miranda Soliz <msoliz2000> wrote: > It's so hard for me lately to maintain a spiritual > perspective.
