Jai Sri Raghunandan Das Goravani

[Guest guest]

Om Amrtesvaryai Namah!!!

 

Namaste dear brothers and sisters!!!!

 

O Dasji...what you can say when you get going!!!!you had me in tears,

dear brother, through that whole letter on Gurus...and i just loved

how you expressed yourself there....i see us all slowly growing up

into acceptance of all the various paths that each of us feels drawn

to...i love your devotion to Krsna and that's that....

 

i also understand why you have no particular desire to get back into

the kind of life that revolves around Gurus...even Amma...i

understand dear friend...so of course i accept...i feel nothing but

the deepest love and affection, not to mention respect for you

Dasji...you have helped to spread the Dharma (irrespective of

sectarian differences...), and for that i'm sure that your Beloved

Deity is very happy....

 

also it's true that California is a ways to go for something you're

not sure you'd like....of course it's probably almost as far to

Seattle, where Amma comes in springs too....and it does get crowded as

you know...you very accurately have portrayed some of the kinds of

characters that hang around...but you know, there are also some very

wonderful, loving, spiritually minded people....people like you

Dasji...On the other hand i also totally understand the urge you have

to take what you've already learned and apply it here and now to your

life...if you've truly learned it what use are Gurus??? Strangely

enough dear brother, many of us Amma children are feeling the same way

these days....Mother is working on us to develop the Guru within...and

She is so obviously in one's life that it doesn't take much attention

to bring that feeling you were describing of being in a vast, and

loving embrace...warm, comfortable...needing nothing else kind of

hug...just the kind Amma gives in darshan...except this kind of

darshan is personal and anywhere....

 

you know, Dasji, Mother has only let me come to see Her once a year,

for about 3 or 4 days, for years now....i've had to be where you are

there too....concentrating on the Beloved Deity Who resides Blissfully

in one's own heart...dancing sweetly to the Divine melodies.......and

yet now, it is so much easier to be feeling to be in Her

Presence...even with such a limited access...She has opened my heart

with Her Divine Love, and planted the seed of Her presence with Her

sweet words in my ears..."darling darling darling darling son!"

and "Ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma...." with every Ma She planted

another little Seed of Her presence....and if watered with devotion

and care, the little rose will grow into a magnificent plant covered

in fragrant blooms....one can literally feel this happening...that

Amma's presence grows slowly, lovingly, so sweetly, intoxicatingly in

one's mind and heart, until She is the main occupant....and we are

Glad She is....Just like Sri Krsna had asked us....only when we have

been with Amma it comes naturally...one doesn't have to do

anything....one is like a gopi or gopa with Krsna, rather than

a "worshipper"...the Love is itself the reward.....

 

and Dasji...even tho i am a Sakta in this life and in many others, i

believe in Sri Krsna too...because i too, have had experiences of His

Blessed Darshan...OH His Loving Eyes!!!and Sweet smile!!....so i love

Him very much...and Jesus Christ...in my heart NONE are excluded...all

are welcome here....for in Divine Love how can we choose....Love is

for everyone...the entire creation...How can i not love my brothers

and sisters when i see That Divine One within them shining out thru

the eyes?

 

O Dasji, this littlest one,

ignorant of Jyotish,

ignorant of Vedas,

Ignorant of Guru Achara,

Ignorant of True Divine Love,

this littlest child

of the Divine Mother,

dear brother,

with a loving heart,

and tearful eyes,

salutes you most humbly!!

 

Bowing again and again,

he reverently

takes the Sacred Dust,

O Servant of God,

from Your Lotus Feet!

 

Koti Koti Pranams to Sri Raghunandan Das Goravani!!!!!

 

Jai Sri Krsna!!!

 

In Divine Mother's and Sri Krsna's

Divine Love,

and in Their Service,

 

as ever,

Your Own Self
