Why should I be scared of Her when She is my Mother.

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

 

The recent crash of the Challenger intrigued my eight-year-old

daughter Lalita. She kept asking questions because apparently it was

quite some news in her class.

 

Yesterday she wanted some library book or video about outer space.

Today morning she again started the topic and asked about the space

station. i told her that it was a scientific laboratory flying

around in space, conducting experiments for humankind. She was

fascinated by the whole concept of humans in space, living in huge

machines with small rooms. She wished to be able to see the

universe, a really cool thing to do in her words.

 

For the first time ever i asked her to request if Shri Mataji could

help her. All she had to do was request Shri Mataji in her Sahasrara

and the Adi Shakti would fulfill the wish. i also emphasized that it

was up to her and should not do so just on my suggestion. Knowing

that Lalita had never asked Shri Mataji for any type of favor, i

enquired if she was afraid to do so. Lalita replied, " Why should I

be scared of Her when She is my Mother. "

 

Again this proves that Shri Mataji exists within the Sahasrara, a

mystical journey some are able to make. But why do i keep tryinmg to

tell fellow SYs about these spiritual experiences? Why do i keep

providing fresh evidence that Shri Mataji is the Adi Shakti in the

Sahasrara, knowing full well that some may misconstrue it as

egoistic, seeking fame or just plain showing off. i came across a

Encyclopædia Britannica quote that may help partially answer my

inability to withdraw into a shell:

 

" Experience of oneness with people

 

The apotheosized (divinized) field of consciousness is mysticism's

ultimate goal and gift to the life of an evolving humanity. It alone

is fitted to mediate between the anguish of existence and the

serenity of essence, between samsara ( " cycle of birth and rebirth " )

and Nirvana (the State of Bliss). According to an American Roman

Catholic mystic, Thomas Merton, " The spiritual anguish of man has no

cure but mysticism. "

 

Though the mystic goal may seem to be tied to a transcendent

reality, this does not mean a sundering of all relations and

responsibilities. On the contrary, it is the guarantee of a set of

altered relationships and a rehabilitation of what may be called the

higher reason. Intuitions that sink into private fancy and morbidity

have a short life to live. As for the mystic's " yonder, " it is not

spatially or posthumously remote but rather refers to a different

order of reality and consciousness. The healthier forms of mysticism

do not abjure action or the claims of love. It is an ancient maxim

that one becomes what one loves. This is how the psychic birth

repeats itself in the mystic soul, as stated, for example, by

Meister Eckehart, a medieval German mystic: " It is more worthy of

God that he should be born spiritually of every virgin, or of every

good soul, than that he should have been born physically of Mary. "

 

The mystic is not always amorous of the beyond, leaving an

unredeemed world to its own ways. Not escape but, rather, victory is

mysticism's inner urge and promise. The more sober among the mystics

do not merely withdraw; they also return to the base and attempt the

ancient alchemy, the transformation of men. A solitary salvation

does not satisfy either head or heart. "  

 

i hope my fellow SYs bear a bit of my burden, just as the great Adi

Shakti begins to wrap Her Mission on Earth. We SYs have been silent

long enough and must stand up before She leaves.

 

But don't think i am some incarnation or prophet on a special

mission. i am just an ordinary SY like you doing his duty. Lalita is

my daughter, and she is yours too. We must feel and experience

oneness with people, and those who try to bring that

consciousness ................. or raise it to a higher level.

 

 

warmest regards,
