Guest guest Posted April 15, 2005 Report Share Posted April 15, 2005 Hello Linda 11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue"> 11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue">Hope all is well with you. The Devi Mandir Group members are wonderful especially our main girl , sister Nanda! She makes things happen in the Group. We all owe her a big thank you. 11.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue"> Kind regards yes"> mso-no-proof:yes">Jay font-family:Tahoma"> nierika (AT) aol (DOT) com [nierika (AT) aol (DOT) com] Tahoma">Friday, April 15, 2005 font-family:Tahoma">4:11 AM Re: To Everyone on My Navaratri Sankalpa 12.0pt"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">Dear Muktimaa, Berijoy, Ardis, Steve, Kanna Krishnan, Jay, Karen, Kali, and Nanda, 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">Tears streamed down my cheeks as I read all you encouraging words. I am overwhelmed by the kindness and love shown by this group. Perhaps I needed to experience this to help me with my issues with my own biological mother so I could let go into the arms of my true Mother. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">Yesterday, I received a wonderful letter of acceptance and encourgement from Muktimaa, and a rousing pep talk from my sister, who ~ is a Shree Maa devotee. Her comments echoed all that all of you said. As a result of this, today, after I had gotten up and was completely awake, I picked up my Chandi and chanted Chapter 3, which was where I left off. I will continue, even if I can't keep up because I love chanting the Chandi, which is even better than just reading it, and because virtually every page offers me freedom from those thoughts of too much and too little that plague me. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black"> 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">I have no words to say how much what all of you wrote means to me, but I feel the love flowing out and my own flowing back. Thank you all, my blessed brothers and sisters. 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black">Jai Maa ~ Linda 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black"> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 Namaste Linda, it's very good to hear from you again. Hope you're feeling a little better now. I am really happy for you that you live in such a beautiful place now. You have a marvellous gift of observation and I can almost see where you live from your description. Your eyes must be very pure to see and value all Mother's riches in this way. I hope you'll be able to use that fireplace for a homa, with love, Henny -- In , nierika@a... wrote: > Chris wrote: > > "Swamiji has said any kind of fire pit is good enough (though a "regulation" > kunda is best... > Dear Chris and All ~ first let me say hello again.
