Om Namo Narayan -

If you want success it is imperative to build a Trust in your Guru.

Begin to do the Mantra given from the Heart with full Love and

attention.

 

Don't seek on the net the advice of others who are groping along

as well. In this case you are fortunate that a Guru with diciples

has seen your plight and is taking the time to write this.

 

Always go to *Your Guru* with your questions. When it is found that

my disciples have gone searching in darkness (over the net to those

still groping) rather than coming to the Light (Guru - dispeller of

darkness) this is a great saddness. For it is known that their pain

and ignorance of the ways of the path or how to break through

suffering is only being prolonged by misguided pointings by other

well meaning seekers who know not yet the road map out of their own

delima's.

 

Spirituality in the beginning is perhaps attempting to get away

from the worldly things. In Realization One gets away from nothing -

rather it is a celebration of Gods Eternal Unfolding (as Shakti) and

the Eternal Unchanging IS which permeates and runs like a thread

through all of the transient seen world. (Kali's foot is upon Shivas

Heart - the connnection is always there).  One drops the dark veil

to uncover the Living Stillness and Light of Absolute which is then

Lila through the expression within Shakti's realm of motion.

 

The path is not always easy. One must be willing to encounter

whatever comes in order to break through to the Waiting LIght.

At the core of your Being is that which is Sought. It is not

out there somewhere - it is Always Present (if it were not you

would have No existance - there would be no light within the mind

to give the ability to even question or hold -create or make

changes within the mental framework of mind or to water the

blossom of the heart awareness...

 

As a Guru the advice would be to begin to develop more Heart

Awareness by Seeing and entering into and through Each moment and

breath of life as Sacred. See yourself as a Living Temple and put

within your Heart Chamber the most sacred and lovely Essence of

Deity.

 

Do Puja or observance within to This Heart Essence.  Allow it to

grow and to Shine. Water it with mantra - allow the mantra to

become a living incense of fragrance within your life. Begin here

and then see this Altar of the Heart within All Beings Equally.

Reverance Life. In order to enter Sacredness and Gladness and Bliss,

then BE Them (without doubt) .  Light this Light and it will grow

into a Sacred Fire which burns away the samskaras (sanskaras) .

 

Maha Shanti OM
