			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>It feels that we are the great freedom of the racing winds.<br />
The Universal Mother is the light that shines in the Sun and the Moon.</p>
<p>You all are the Self, beyond the senses and the mind.<br />
You are free from all limitations.<br />
You are free of the ego-thoughts that the ego sends to the human mind.<br />
The heart of your Beloved is beyond all religions and philosophies.</p>
<p>You are that which is that.<br />
You are the light of the Mother’s luminous orb of love for you.<br />
It is quite simple.<br />
Just think of the Mother loving you; open your heart, or allow her to open it for you.<br />
You are the Mother&#8217;s child.<br />
Revel in this glory of the Mother loving you.<br />
Let yourself merge in the Mother always.<br />
You are her breath, and she is yours.</p>
<p>I love you all so very much.<br />
Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>Painful are those who keep themselves away from the essence of the Universe.<br />
Painful is the consciousness that is closed to love.<br />
Painful are all the limitations that you put upon yourself and others.<br />
Painful are your limited perceptions of who you are and who you are going to be.</p>
<p>Blissful indeed is the life of those who remember that they are part of God or Goddess.<br />
Blissful indeed is the self realization of the beauty of your heart.<br />
Blissful is the one who finds supreme love.</p>
<p>Happiness and misery are passing phantoms.<br />
Know that you are the Ocean supporting the waves of time.<br />
Happiness is being on the shores of Kashi.<br />
Happiness is living in the fullness of life.</p>
<p>Bliss is knowing that the Mother always loves you, no matter what.</p>
<p>I love you all so very much.<br />
Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>Fall into the gentleness of your own true self this morning.<br />
Release any anxiety or tension.<br />
Allow your beautiful hidden self to come forward.<br />
Invite your hidden self to come to the surface of your being.</p>
<p>Gently lay down all your fears at the Feet of the Universal Mother.<br />
Ask Her to guide you to the depth of love swimming in your heart.<br />
No matter what you have done, the Mother will never throw you out of Her heart.</p>
<p>She will always show you the path that you must treasure, the path of compassion and service.<br />
With compassion, you strengthen your Soul.<br />
Know that you are loved as you are this very moment.<br />
Let the love flow from your heart into the Universe.</p>
<p>Every day is the day of the Mother, and every day She wants to hold you.<br />
You are never alone.<br />
The Mother hears every word and every thought and can distinguish the difference between your thoughts and the shadow thoughts of the ego.<br />
I pray that you will understand the difference between the two thoughts.<br />
You have the strength to give up and burn the ego thoughts and reside in the heart of the Mother, deep inside your chest.<br />
You can remove yourself from judgment of others and yourself.</p>
<p>I love you with all my heart<br />
Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>Sit quietly in the stillness.<br />
And ask yourself what you are grateful for.<br />
Go over your life, and count your blessings.<br />
See how your blessings can motivate you into greater blessings.<br />
It is all the matter of being grateful for what you have that will bring more happiness to you.</p>
<p>Call on Divine assistance to lead you closer to the fullness of your deepest gratitude.<br />
Ask your God how to share your blessings with others<br />
The Universal Mother does not want you to withhold anything from Her.<br />
The more you surrender to the Mother within, the more you find deep inspiration to be grateful every moment of your life.<br />
The Mother will help you to advance closer to your Soul.<br />
She will help you to come Home.<br />
When you truly surrender, there is no hidden self and no separation &#8211; and it is the Mother who does all the planning.</p>
<p>Though a thousand iron chains of karma may seem to hold you down and keep you bound, you must know that the more you surrender to the Mother within the more you are free.<br />
It is you who have made your bondage a reality, and it is you who have faith in the Mother who can set you free.<br />
Feel your freedom this very moment.<br />
I love you very much.</p>
<p>Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>Most fears and worries begin in the mind.<br />
The ego sends thoughts and images, and then the ego promotes deep fears.<br />
You become a victim of fearful thoughts.<br />
You begin to constantly listen to your thoughts, and this brings nothing but pain that is not necessary.<br />
The higher mind is a wonderful thing when it is not clouded with yesterday’s thoughts.<br />
The mind that lives in the moment is in touch with the Soul.</p>
<p>Fear is acknowledging that we are entering a place that we have no control over.<br />
Yet if you just say THINKING whenever your thoughts plague you, your life will become more and more spiritual.</p>
<p>Leave your fears in the hands of the Mother, and forget any weakness that the ego brings you in the form of thought.<br />
You are not your thoughts.<br />
Breathe in deeply whenever you can think of it and breathe out with awareness.<br />
Do this a few times a day even if you have to write it on cards and leave them all around.<br />
This allows the smallness of your mind to be engulfed in the breath.<br />
This allows the heart to expand.</p>
<p>Be happy for others the way you want others to be happy for you.<br />
We all can share in each other’s happiness, thus becoming happy within ourselves.<br />
There is so much in the Universe to have when you simply ask with great belief.<br />
The Universe never runs out of all the gifts that the Mother wants for you all.<br />
When one receives so much and you are happy for that person, you are already in line to receive whatever it is that you want.</p>
<p>The Mother asks you to surrender in the deepest part of your being any fears you may have.<br />
As you ask to surrender, She teaches you how.<br />
This also is a gift from the never-ending, abundant Universe.</p>
<p>In life we are always confronted by our own fears &#8211; thus we become defensive as we try to hide our fears by being falsely brave.<br />
You must remember that your God sees you as you are.<br />
God knows your fears, your hopes and your joys.</p>
<p>There is no fear once you have surrendered them to the Mother.<br />
This also takes practice.<br />
Nothing but nothing can separate you from your Universal Mother.</p>
<p>Gratitude is the key to all things.<br />
When you are grateful it is hard to be afraid.<br />
You will never be alone or walk alone on this journey.</p>
<p>We will travel together on the path of love.<br />
What is it you need this very minute?<br />
What is it that you want?<br />
Look around you, and look deep in your heart, where you find the courage to serve others while you serve yourself.</p>
<p>I love you all so very much.</p>
<p>Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>At times you may feel that the only time your will and the will of your God merge fully is when you leave your human body.<br />
This is not true, for it is possible for your will and your love to be united with the Universal Mother&#8217;s desires for all of you.<br />
It does not happen all at once &#8211; and yet it can.<br />
The Mother simply gives you your Self.</p>
<p>The fog of the ego seems to drown in our Ganga and the heart grows and expands with love that the ego has hidden.<br />
The Mother gives to all of you the true nature of your reality in the form of deep strong love and compassion.<br />
The Mother gives you the deep desire to grow deeply into the truth of your Being.<br />
When you listen to the ego, life hurts and wearies you &#8211; and you feel that the pain will never cease.<br />
Yet those were past thoughts.<br />
I invite you to live in the moment.<br />
This very moment we merge in the purest of love.<br />
Our spirits will always be.<br />
No one is forcing you to get life right this moment.<br />
I am only asking you to be in the moment and experience the now like never before.<br />
In the moment of awakening, the Mother gives you Her own visions for you.</p>
<p>You can see it all happening right now.<br />
God is never away from you, always in the Now.<br />
I invite you to return to the Source from where you have come from.<br />
And this is all in the moment of now.<br />
How exciting is this?</p>
<p>The Mother lights the fire in your hearts every moment that you dwell in the moment.<br />
Yesterday&#8217;s fire has faded, and it is burning again in the Now.</p>
<p>Feel it on the breath of Now.<br />
We merge into each other.<br />
I love you all so very much.</p>
<p>Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Namaste,</p>
<p>I want you all to make your mind up that you are going to walk through life with the Universal Mother.<br />
Make up your mind that you want peace and love in your life, and they will be there.<br />
You have to make up your mind to walk in love with the Mother.<br />
Love is how you treat people and yourself.<br />
You have to be certain to know that the Mother is with you, no matter what you do.</p>
<p>If you set your mind to have a better outlook in life,  She will hear you and help you find your way into Her heart.<br />
When you make the decision to follow your heart and not your mind, you have made the decision to live in love.<br />
Notice how the Mother is active in your life.<br />
Notice how the ego is active in your life.</p>
<p>This is the battle of the thoughts.<br />
The thoughts of your God bring beauty to your life.<br />
When you listen to the negativity of the ego, you have nothing to share with anyone except your negativity.<br />
When you listen to your heart, which is the heart of the Mother, you have only love to share with others.</p>
<p>The Mother breathes on your breath.<br />
Think on this as you go through your day.<br />
Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
Kashi Ashram</p>

<p>Do not get so involved in the holidays that you forget to breathe with awareness. The breath is your connection to the Universal Mother.</p>
<p>One should rejoice in the joys of the breath.<br />
This leads to the development of great strength.<br />
By watching your breath, depression can be driven away.<br />
The breath is the beginning of your spiritual power.<br />
The breath bestows great possibility for you to practice intense meditation on the Mother without being disturbed by negative forces of disharmony and malice.</p>
<p>If you do the simple meditation of counting your breath, counting seven in and seven out and gradually increase the count as you focus on the breath, soon you will be taken in by the Mother Herself. You take your mind out of the ego&#8217;s clutches as you say to yourself all day long,“Breathe in and breathe out; breathe in and breathe out.”<br />
The Mother&#8217;s voice will enter into your mind, and you will hear the Mother&#8217;s voice counting instead of your own.<br />
Yes, it is this simple.</p>
<p>I have seen so many going deeper simply by starting with the counting of the breath.<br />
Breathe in and breathe out.<br />
Do it now as you read these words.<br />
Breathe in and breathe out.<br />
Create your own rhythm.<br />
I will help you all this day.</p>
<p>You will find that by watching your breath, you are infusing joy into your heart.<br />
Take your time &#8211; breathe in, and breathe out.<br />
I love you all so very much.<br />
Love,<br />
Ma Jaya<br />
