Guest guest Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 >Namaste Edward: I once asked Maa why She had not come to " wake me up " sooner. She replied: " It was not time " . Not satisfied with that answer, I asked what such and such a thing was going to happen, and She replied, " What it is time. " This is your time for the Divine Fire. You are indeed ready to take this wonder-full gift of Maa and Swami's and set the fire of transformation into motion. Remember that They have transmitted their shakti into each of us so that we can begin this relationship with the Divine Fire. They have set the stage, and readied everything for you, so that you can begin the practice with Their support and energy infused into every part of the ceremony. This is the practice you have been waiting for and it is here now. Just bring yourself, and sit down, strap in, and get ready to blast off. Before you begin, just pray to Maa and Swami for Their support and blessings. They hear every prayer and WILL HELP YOU IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE, OF THIS I AM CERTAIN. Have a great time and please share your experiences, and take some pictures so we can see too. Jai Maa Jai Swami vishweshwar Vishweshwar, > > I will be meeting with Chris this coming Wednesday for a Homa. I am very interested in healing and transmutating the dynamics of thoughts that seem to take center stage in one's life, (Karma). As a natural born healer, I know that through this process of Homa and mantra recitation, the fire will cleanse and purify karmas. I invision my practice want to get better and better through the years that even currently, I become animated just to think about it. It must be that this is my dharma, coming to fruition, because it has been felt for such a long time, and only now coming to fruition. > > Edward > > > > inspectionconnection108 <inspectionconnection108 > > Friday, May 11, 2007 9:53:07 PM > [www.ShreeMaa.org] FAMILY, LIGHT YOUR FIRE-NOW > > NAMASTE: I remember the first time I participated in a fire ceremony > with Maa and Swami.
