The Praise To The Night of Duality (Verse 1-3)

April 16, 2004

I would like to share my understanding and learn from the rest of the

family different ways we could look into this verses ;

Verse 1 Om The Night of Duality gives individuality in many forms and

times perceivable by the divine power of sense

If Duality is the night then unity would be the morning and the dawn

is definitely the in between. In duality the recognition of “I” and

“Maa” exist but in unity only Maa exist .We are all moving from

duality to unity . The ego “I” is called individuality here. And

individuality are in many forms (to name few Lathaji, Parvathj,

Swamiji, Rudranji, etc. etc) And how do we perceive this forms

through our power of sense ( The 5 senses are actually helping define

our individuality) Through this senses we also distinguish time as

past present and future .But when we go beyond this five senses we

would realize our unity with Maa) The Night of Duality is Mahamaya

herself giving this individuality(limitation) and later through

Herself as Sister Dawning

of Light removes the ignorance of individuality by giving us the

knowledge to attain union with Her again

Verse 2 Omnipresent, immortal, the Goddess of places high and low; darkness is repelled by light

She who creates the night the duality which is darkness is also the

essence of dawning light as well . She is called “Sister” to show

that they are actually not different but related to each other . They

are not separate Goddess but have interrelationships (Mahakali,Maha

Lakshmi and Maha Saraswathi they are actually Chandi Maa) .

Furthermore She is omnipresent and immortal, she is everywhere and

always existed .That means even though we see a different distinct

goddess called Night of Duality and Sister Dawning light (later) She

was the ever present(omnipresent) and always existed (immortal)at the

background as one Goddess. This means the Night of Duality and

Sister Dawning light are just different manifestation of the same

immortal ever existing Maa. And Swamiji explain why different

manifestation was done by Her . This is done by Her because “darkness

is repelled by light” To remove the ignorance (darkness) of

individuality cause by the senses through knowledge(light)of our

unity with Divine Mother . How do we realize and experience this

knowledge of unity – Chandi Path (recitations of Chandi sadhana just

like the businessman and the King) .So who removes the individuality-

the Divine Mother that is why She took such a manifestation

Verse 3 She gave definition to Her sister, the Dawning Light, the

Goddess who comes. And the darkness departs.

She gave definition. That means the Divine Mother who is at the

background actually gave definition to Herself as again as Dawning

Light. She gave measurement to Her own self that is why she is

Mahamaya .When there is light than darkness must depart. When by

sadhana we have realized our unity with Divine Mother then off course

our individuality would disappear. Shree Maa cook not for her

individual self but as Divine Mother cooking for all Her children.

Bhagawan Ramakrishna said the I have left the cage (his body) long

ago now only Maa resides in there. Here Swamiji says “And the

darkness departs”. You do not have force it to go but it would go by

itself once Dawning Light comes. This means there is no need to force

yourself to lose your individually , just continue with best of your

ability in sadhana and Maa herself would

remove the ignorance of individuality within

See all this reappearing again in coming chapters in Chandi Path under

different name . Feel there is a relationship between individuality

and Great Ego , Night of Duality and Remover of Darkness, the wolves

again as the Forces of Duality and the list could go on and

on...................................

This is my understanding of the these verses according to my spiritual

capabilty.My sincere apologies for any misunderstanding.

Love to hear input from the rest of our family..............................................

Jai Maa !!!
