Guest guest Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 Namaste all; after we worshiped and thanked our ancestors today, Swami reminded us why we should appreciate and offer thanks to them, He said, and I paraphrase Him: ... " all that our ancestors did to help us, all they sacrificed, even the things they did to show us WHAT WE SHOULD NOT DO; in every way they taught us, for everything they taught us: we are thankful and we want to show our appreciation and love for them. Because of their endevors, we are in the wonderful place we are today. Thus we do these prayers for them. " Dear family, we don't have to wait to a special day to thank them, every day in our pujas, we can offer our love and thanks and appreciation. When we are done our puja and prayers, we can take a few more moments and offer our love to them. In that timeless space, we are One with them, all past, present, and future in the moment, One with them, and we offer a prayer to them. Thanks to Maa and Swami for teaching us how to love. May we reside in Her lap during this Navaratri. See you in the Tempe at 4:30 AM each morning this week, for Mother songs and aarti. Then watch Maa and Swami perform their sadhana, tuning into their hearts will bring immense bliss. Jai Ma Jai Swami Happy Navaratri vishweshwar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Thanks for taking the names of my ancestors to remember on that special day. This begins more healing and attitude change for me. When you think about it too, the line of ancestors goes back and back and back. It has no end. This is another way of connecting with the All. Om Jai Ma Kali. Om Namah Shivaya Kumari , " inspectionconnection108 " <inspectionconnection108 wrote: > > Namaste all; after we worshiped and thanked our ancestors today, > Swami reminded us why we should appreciate and offer thanks to them, > He said, and I paraphrase Him: ...
