Guest guest Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Namaste: Maa tells a story of Her childhood. I think of it whenever I use any tool, or perform any action. She was sweeping te floor, and when finished, She threw the broom into the corner. Ramakrishna, who was with Her always, spoke inside Her and told Her to respect the broom, as it is a tool to help Her do Her work. Simple thought, so profound. Reminds one to be ever vigilant of one's thoughts and actions, and to be efficient and respectful of all of manifest creation, as all is God, and all can be supportive of one's work on this Earth. Also, it reminds me that Maa is ever with me inside, and all around, watching and offering me help, guidance, and support. May we have be aware of Her in our lives, always love Jai Ma Jai Swami vishweshwar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Namaste Vish, This book is so beautiful. Simple, childlike and yet so very profound. Every page makes you sit and think. One of my favourite quotes is by Hafiz it reads - " Someone inside of us is now kissing the hand of God, and wants to share with us the grand news " . Maa is surely sharing this wonderful news with her children to show us how to have that personal relationship with God. When I read the story of Ganesh, I remember that poster with Maa wearing a red and white sari seated in asana outside the door. Maa is in some far away place only the body is there but if we look closely to her right, we see each year Lord Ganesh's image is becoming clearer and clearer. He is the One protecting Mother's body like we read in the Puranas. There is no trickery, no artistry just a pure manifestation of the Divinity seated with Divinity. Tears came to my eyes at this thought. How blessed are we to have Beloved Shree Maa to guide us. Thank You Mother.
