Guest guest Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Namaste, my name is Celeste and I have just recently joined the group. � Merry Christmas and Blessed Yule to all. � As for a little about me, I have been drawn to Kali Ma after some horrible events in my life. At first, I ran from Her as She cut away the illusions of what had happened and I was not ready to handle that. � Now, I have run to Her and to Lord Shiva with my arms wide open. � I will admit, I am very new to Hinduism and have just recently started to try and learn more about it. I am looking forward to meeting others here and learning all that I can.

Guest guest Posted December 26, 2008 Report Share Posted December 26, 2008 Blessings to you and welcome, Many of us Westerners are drawn here by beloved Mahakali. She does cut away illusion very quickly, sometimes too quickly for us. You are welcome here, and you may ask what you wish. Many people on here are very learned sadakas. Jai Ma! Shankari Enquire: 'Who am I?' and you will find the answer. Look at a tree: from one seed arises a huge tree; from it comes numerous seeds, each one of which in its turn grows into a tree. No two fruits are alike. Yet it is one life that throbs in every particle of the tree. So, it is the same Atman everywhere. --Sri Anandamayi Ma http://shankarikali.wordpress.com/ --- On Thu, 12/25/08, Lotus of Kali <frozen_winter_tears wrote: Lotus of Kali <frozen_winter_tears Namaste, my name is Celeste and I have just recently joined the group. � Merry Christmas and Blessed Yule to all. � As for a little about me, I have been drawn to Kali Ma after some horrible events in my life.
