To all family: about cleaning cupboards

[Guest guest]

Namaste all: Maa and Swami teach us a very simple and profound way to

live: Since Mother has given us all these gifts- a body, many

beautiful thnigs, etc, we should be thankful, and keep them in good

condition. Maa and Swami love orderliness and cleanliness. They view

the entire world as the body of Mother, and as such, it should be kept

clean and tidy.

Also, as sadhus, they teach that one should be efficient in every

action. Don't waste or abuse one's things, then one will not have to

spend extra time working to replace or repair them. And, if one

leaves a place in better condition than one finds it, then one helps

others save time and energy.

So, by observing Maa and Swami's every action, we learn that

everything is holy and divine, and should be treated with respect and

love, and keeping one's environment clean, organized, and beautiful,

is a demonstration of our highest respect.

I am so thankful they have given us the tools to clean our inner

being, and they have taught me how to clean the outer world more

effectively than I ever imagined possible.

 

Jai Maa Jai Swami
