He who irons out the wrinkles of complexity

[Guest guest]

Dear Muktimaa,

Once again I bow to your creativity.

 

One of the names that you gave Swamiji, "He who irons out the

wrinkles of complexity" reminded me of Swamiji describing the Ulta

path.

 

As many in the group know, the Seedha Path is the straight recitation

of the Chandi. There is also a path called the "Ulta Path" which

means reciting the 700 verses backwards. Note :- I have not done this

myself so cant speak much to this.

 

I bring this up because of the way Swamiji described doing the Seedha

and the Ulta Path - he says when we go forwards and backwards with an

iron, we remove the wrinkles in the cloth. Similarly when we go

forwards and backwards in the Chandi we remove the wrinkles in our

chanting (and I would add, ultimately our minds).

 

Jai Guru
