Namaste Priyasharanshyam: Kali Mata

[Guest guest]

Namaste: I have forwarded your question to Swami.

He will give us all guidance on this issue. In my experience, it is

best never to discuss religion with another, unless they share the

same beliefs as you, unless they are a sincere seeker of God. This

Devi Mandir club is an example of the value of satsunga: the

gathering of like-minded souls to discuss and SUPPORT each other in

the pursuit of the highest ideals of perfection.

As we share our stories, questions, and love for our sadhana and

things spiritual, we feel supported, nurtured, and as a result, grow

together towards God.

On the other hand, attempting to share our love of God with those who

only wish to raise themselves up, is a waste of time and energy.

We are glad you have come to be with us. Please share your

experiences of your love of God with us. We will support and honor

your experiences.

 

Jai Maa Jai Swami
