To Henny on names for Swamiji

Dear Henny ~ I loved all your names for Swamiji, but especially these

having to do with dancing. Do you know of the ancient song, "Lord of

the Dance"? It is beautiful ... an old, perhaps Celtic shamanic song.

When it was sung, the people attacted tree branches to their heads so

they looked like stags, and they danced around. And I guess if

Swamiji is the Lord of the Dance, then Shree Maa must be the Lady of

the Dance. The one thing that always stands out in my mind from their

VCR (now probably DVD), "Across the States with Shree Maa and

Swamiji," is this. Shree Maa is speaking to a group of people; She

smiles coyly and says, "you want samadhi or sing and dance?" And then

there is a voice from the back that asks, "why not both?" There is a

lot of dancing in that video.

Jai Maa , Jai Swamiji ~ Linda

Linda,

 

This is a secret...don't tell anyone. It's not something I talk about.

 

I was there that night at Samadhi Yoga Center. They had a big sign

with their name on the wall facing Shree Maa. So, after everybody

getting settled, she looked up at the name and jokingly asked if we

would like samadhi or to sing and dance. From my place near the wall I

said "Samadhi," and the next day she gave it to me (though it was only

bhava). I still remember Sakali Tomar Icha. It was as if she sang it

for me. Jai Gurudeva!

 

Jai Maa!
