Dear Prajna ~ thank you for sharing so much of your inner and outer journey. The story of Mother's effect on your mother and Her understanding of your problem and where it came from, not to mention Her saying She would make a sankalpa for you ... it was just inspiring ... almost earth shaking. I am sure all will go well for you and Anaghan for your move. Obviously, Mother is with you all the way. I would be interested to know of the 12 Divine Powers if there is a way you can share this information briefly with the group. I'm sure since this is divided up into classes, that would be a bit difficult, but perhaps you can give us a smidgin about it. Also, jewelry ... I am discovering that there is a whole group of hidden jewelry makers who belong to the digest. I am one of them. I won't mention any other names, but I'd love to hear about what you do. Is this how you earn your living? For me it is another facet of my art ~ I have jewelry in two local galleries, one where I also have my visual art, and one very high end spa. I just love working with semi-precious stones, silver (especially Bali and Hill Tribe), and even glass like austrian crystal and Czech glass. May you have a blessed journey as you continue on the path ~ Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Dear Children of Immortal Bliss: There are Siddhas and then there is an Incarnation. Siddha's can turn a rock into a diamond. Many Siddha's can read your mind etc. To this bewildered son Amma demonstrates Her divinity somewhat uniquely among great Yogini's. She transforms people!!! Smokers spontaneously quit. Drinkers stop somewhat naturally. Hard Edged Bikers become compassionate. I have gathered this with my eyes and ears. I feel that the transformative power of Amma goes beyond Siddha Yoga. My usual two rupees are hereby offered at Her Lotus Feet.
