Daily Reflection:May 17 – SurrenderIf you don’t know the answer, surrender.

Dear devotee ~ sometimes the simplest acts may be the most profound. I

had a terrible dream last night and woke up feeling scared, almost as

if I might have a nervous breakdown. I am sad because I am so far

away from my daughter, and I cannot afford to live in the area she

lives in anymore (she is the Maryland).

 

My first action was to come to the computer and begin reading this

digest, which immediatedly helped me feel better. And then, this

simple reflection was just what I needed to hear. I turn my needs and

my feelings over to the lotus feet of Shree Maa.

Jai Maa ~ Linda

The pujas allow us to expand our consciousness to that awareness (of

divinity) and cultivate that relationship. We begin by seeing God in

little things. We practice seeing God in a flower, in a candle, in an

altar of worship, in a form of deity that we put our love and devotion

into. Then the relationship increases exponentially.

Dear devotee ~ I especially love this excerpt from "Before Becoming

This." I am still taking baby steps, and lengthy pujas are difficult

for me because of my illness. But this gives me a new way to approach

worship, just as on their website, Shree Maa and Swami say worship is

respect. Jai Maa , Jai Swamiji ~ Linda
