I never been in Devi Mandi or met Shree Maa and Swamiji , and I don´t speek English, but I can to read the Swamiji ´s books because they are mercifull . They are in my heart. In the book Before Becoming This Maa tell us about how we can to be with our Guru, we need fall in love with our guru. Love is all. I have a their picture in my shrine and in my heart, so I worship these great sadhus. Jai Maa! Jai Swamiji! With love KalachandraArdis Jackson <ardis1 (AT) verizon (DOT) net> wrote: Hi Michael,You are a little ahead of us! Verses 91, 92 and 95 of the Guru Gita explain clearly how to worship the Guru.A little reminder... there is no time or space, so you are never separate from the Guru.Seeing the physical form or visiting the Devi Mandir has little to do with true worship. Open your heart to devotion to the Guruor to your Ishta Devata (favorite form of the Divine), and they will come.Murtis (pictures and statues) are an aid to visualizing the Guru. Also the wonderful videos like Across the States with Shree Maa andSwamiji and the Method and Meaning of Worship help you to make the connection with the Guru.Shree Maa has said that music is the highest form of worship. So..... sing to Them!Let me know how it goes.These Satgurus are so open to us. They are giving us everything. They are holding nothing back.We are all so blessed; whether we have had their darshan or not.The sun of wisdom shines on all equally.Jai Maa Jai Swamiji Jai Ramakrishna Paramahamsa DevaOn Mar 24, 2005, at 3:13 PM, Karen Borak wrote:> From Michael -- Although neither Karen nor I can attend the Guru Gita > Discussion Group on Saturday, we were wondering how you felt about > absentee participation in the form of a question for the Saturday > group.
