Dear berijoy ~ oh, dear heart, don't despair for surely Maa and Swami know what is in your heart as does the divine. Your writing brought tears to my eyes because I know what it is like to feel separate from that Divine we so long to be united with. But we are never really separate. The Divine is always there, here ~ within us, without us, all around us, everywhere. If I did not believe this and experience it from time to time, I would not have survived the life I have had to live. I don't believe there is an inconsistency with being in the world and being a total sadhuk. Without all us householders, how would our ordinary reality function. More than that, we contribute in important ways, just by our very being. Your longing will take you to the goal. Never give up. It is like the old folk song says: "keep on keeping on." And thank you for having the courage to share your deep feelings with the group. Jai Maa , Jai Swamiji ~ Linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
