Navaratri Bliss

[Guest guest]

Namaste all family: Living in the world, one forgets how precious Maa

and Swami and the Devi Mandir really are. By Her grace, i was able to

spend the entire day at the Mandir today. Began the day with a group

Chandi homa, then ate a delicious lunch, and then with 2 wonderful

ladies, went to Napashwar, the Shiva lingum in the woods, and we

painted flowers on the concrete base to ready Him for Shivaratri March

5th. We shared stories of our spiritual travels and talked about the

Grace of the Guru.

Then after a break to stack firewood, we performed a Shiva puja at

Napashwar. For one of the ladies, a first time guest, we talked

thought the puja, explaining the system of worship of Shiva. She

loved her first Shiva puja, and felt so blessed to have His darshan.

Then we went up to the Temple just as Maa and Swami arrived for

evening satsunga. Our new friend was so excited to meet Maa for the

first time. Then Maa began to sing. Oh, She had a tooth ache, but

She sang, and sang, and sang, and we all followed Her drum beat.

Higher and higher we rose until the last Shiva song where we all

lifted off into Bliss.

Afterwards, Maa came up to each of us and asked us if we were happy.

Imagine that, the Master asking us if we were happy?

She did not want to leave the temple, there was so much love and

devotion, She was drawn to Her devotees like a bee to a garden of

beautiful flowers.

Then She went to Her home,and we floated to the kitchen for a dinner

prepared by a devotee. More Bliss.

The Devi Mandir is Heaven on Earth and Maa and Swami are the Ancient

Rishis, reborn to give their family the Highest Blessings.

 

Jai Ma Jai Swami
