Guest guest Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 Namaste Tonight in the class at the Mandir, Swami gave another inspiring discourse on the Kadi mantra of Lalita. My words cannot describe the wonder of the knowledge which Swami is pouring into our cakras. I hope you all can take 45 minutes and listen on-line at www.shreemaa.org to this priceless wisdom. This mantra is so profound, it carries within it the description of all creation, all objects and relationships, all aspects of Lalita-the playful Mother of all Creation who resides in our third eye, our Ajna Cakra. Typing the mantra here is an act of worship itself, it is so sacred and holy. ka e i la hrim ha sa ka ha la hrim sa ka la hrim In verse #83 of the Epilogue of the Lalita Trisati, it reads: "Even if one were to make efforts for five births, and Siva Himself {were to come}, there is no greater boon {that you could ask Him} than the knowledge of the fifteen letters. {of this mantra} This is Supreme Knowledge. By understanding this, one can truly begin the worship of the Divine Mother. This mantra has the capacity to structure in us the realization that We are One with Everything, thus fulfilling the purpose for which we were born on this Earth. Brothers and Sisters, life is so short. I pray that we all can make the most of every instant we are alive. I pray for pure devotion so that my heart and mind dwell only at Lord Siva's and Mother Divine's feet, and that all actions I perform radiate Their pure love and peace for this universe.
