Do you want to join in this celebration? Here is an easy way Can you please write a few lines, paragraph...or page..s -- (whatever you like) about ONE or MORE teachings of Shree Maa and Swamiji that you applied to your life -- and how it changed your life or helped you. For example, you took a sankalpa to chant X mantra -- and how it affected you - what you learnt OR you decided to chant the CHANDI and what you learnt from that experience OR you were having a hard time in your life (with your boss/spouse/child/sibling..) and asked a question about it in Swamiji's classes and how implementing that helped! This way we can show our gratitude for the teachings -- and talk about how the teaching helped to transform our life for the better!! We are compiling these write ups and will present them to Maa and Swamiji on Guru Purnima. It will only take a few minutes and your writing will be an expression of your gratitude for the teaching and also inspiration for the rest of us -- so please don't wait, start typing and send it You can either post it here or if you prefer you can email it to: n_ramya108 Thank you! Happy writing! God Bless you! Jai Maa! Jai Guru! yours lovingly ramya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Namaste Dear Ramya, The greatest blessing which I have received from Shree Maa is the rarest of all blessings: to encounter a Person Who lives continuously in, and as, total Freedom. Sri Ramakrishna said that such a person is like a hole in a wall through which one can see a vast, unlimited field beyond. Everyone else lives and acts like a computer program, call it karma, or conditioning or instinct. Only Shree Maa has that unique, divine spontaneity which seems to come from somewhere beyond all the infinite programs that make up the relative universe. To encounter Shree Maa, even for an instant, leaves a permanent impression on the soul that can never be erased. One which I believe will go on working until that soul is drawn into the infinite Ocean which we call God. For me, Swamiji's great Blessing Work is that he has shown by the living example of his life how a person can enter, and even be absorbed into, that divinity, that infinite Freedom which we know as Mother, even in the course of a single lifetime. And, the Swami has shown as well, that when one attains it, one finds that it is not only divine Freedom, but also unconditional, infinite Divine Love. With loving pranams to Both Shree Maa and Swamiji, Kumari , " n_ramya108 " <n_ramya108 wrote: > > > Namaste Everybody, > > Many thanks to all of you who sent us writing to share with Swamiji > and Shree Maa on Guru Purnima day -- If anyone else would like to > contribute, please do not hesitate!

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Namaste Kumari and Everybody, Thanks Kumari for sharing and adding to our collection of inspiration! If you asked Swamiji a question and His answer helped you - or you could put in practise what He said and it worked! You could write about it and share with us as a Guru Purnima gift!!!

Guest guest Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Namaste dear family, I would like to remind everyone to please write a note to Maa and Swamiji for Guru Purnima. I just sent mine to Ramya -- once I sat down to write, it just poured out of me. I told Maa how She has helped me to better understand music as the highest sadhana, and I told Swamiji how much I love the webcam classes and how it has helped me to better understand my role in my family life (amongst millions of other things!!) If you watch the webcam classes (either live or afterwards), please share your favorite Swamiji moment. We are all so blessed to have Maa and Swamiji in our lives. Writing out my feelings in a letter to Them really helped me to confirm this and brought greater focus to my feelings. May Mother's blessings shine upon all of you, bringing everlasting love and bliss. Jai Maa! Jai Swamiji! love ambika , " n_ramya108 " <n_ramya108 wrote: > > > Namaste Kumari and Everybody, > > Thanks Kumari for sharing and adding to our collection of inspiration! > > If you asked Swamiji a question and His answer helped you - or you > could put in practise what He said and it worked!
