Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Namaste You are so right. It takes tremendous discipline to keep going sometimes. But, as Swami says, and as all the texts state: satsunga, the meetings of the holy ones, all of us, to share love and inspiration and knowledge is the most important event in our lives. This club is our virtual satsunga, and I listen daily to the growth we are all experiencing as we share and learn together. lET'S VOW TO KEEP IT GOING, AND BRING OTHERS INTO OUR FAMILY.

It seems that if we can keep doing our sadhana, it makes the suffering - well, not go away, but just be in the background. In the case of this being, if I fall from doing sadhana, the bliss of God and Guru fades away, and suffering rushes back to the forefront, to fill this one up with suffering. It's really just self pity, but yet it's easy to justify. "Oh why did I come to this world to suffer, etc. etc........" But spiritual practice shines a bright light into the darkness, and the shadows just dissapear like they were never even there. Then it's like....."wow, what was I so bummed out about, anyway"? > When the suffering is in the foreground, it's impossible to see. But when sadhana is strong, it all but dissapears in the light. When we suffer, we're just burning through the karmas. I'm going to resolve to keep the fire of sadhana burning bright, and burn through the karmas while staying in the bliss of surrender. It gets hard. At first the path of a sadhu is so blissful and one is so in love. After a few years it gets HARD ! That's when you and I will need to surrender to God so totally, and become an instrument in His/Her hands. > May Divine Mother bless you with the bliss of Her Grace!
