Namaste, Walk to the well of the sweetest water you have ever tasted. Turn as the Earth and the moon turn, going round and round with hearts filled with love. The blood of Mother Earth will turn to sweet wine and make sweet our hearts. The goodness of creation is in your hands. We are opening our Ashram to those who wish to learn, to be and to help others be in their hearts. We will grab at our hearts and let everyone see our hearts' tears fall to the ground. Come and visit Kashi's Sacred Land. Come and see BY THE RIVER; see how our elders live in our affordable apartments. They are so thrilled to be living together on our grounds, laughing and smiling, and living well. People are coming Home to build their homes on our Sacred Kashi. I cry with tears of gratitude. We are all together, walking in Kashi's sun and beneath Kashi's moon. There are no rules to worship. Be free. There are so many years ahead to celebrate our life on our different paths, never to be afraid or alone again. There is nothing to fear in life as you spend it with your Beloved. Love, Ma Jaya

Monday, November 9th, 2009A Dream Coming True
Thursday, October 1st, 2009Namaste,
Did you ever have a dream come true right before your eyes?
After thirty years of praying for our By the River, it has come together in ways I could not have imagined.
As my students took me around the houses, so many times I could not stop the tears of joy and happiness from falling.
It took so much work, and there is so much more to be done.
Everything I touched and saw could not be believed.
I am so proud of everyone who worked so hard.
By the River will give life to so many who would have very little or nothing at all.
All dreams can come true.
You only have to believe in yourself and in the good of others.
We still need some furniture and other home furnishings.
Get in touch with our office if you have anything you think we can use.
I am so grateful to be able to see folks getting older with a smile and a certainty that they are loved and will be taken care of.
I love you all, and for once I am speechless and giddy with happiness!
Love,
Ma Jaya

The Miracle of By The River
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009Namaste,
It is amazing what has occurred since last year’s Laxmi Puja.
Be grateful for all you have received.
By the River is a miracle in itself.
In the buildings and rooms waiting for the occupants is a wonderful feeling of acceptance.
So many elders will be taken care of.
Remember, there are no throwaway people.
Our lives are filled with the joy of serving others and right here on our sacred Ashram.
The sick and the old search the edges of life for any sign of help.
Here at Kashi those who are in need of housing, food and all those things that seniors need to have will be given gladly.
This has been planned for more than thirty years.
We have a deep loyalty to those who are in need.
The magic of it all is emerging in the buildings that are filled with all the possibilities that the elderly thought they could never could have any more.
This is the magic of love and caring.
It is the universal joy of Mother Laxmi to bring happiness prosperity and health to everyone.
Here on Kashi the imagination has given away to truth.
People will find a place to lay their heads without fear.
Folks will have enough to eat.
And our children will learn so much from our seniors.
It is this time of the year that one can feel the closeness of the Mother.
Let Mother Laxmi’s Pujas be a reflection of all of our love and our lives.
All that is needed exists in the heart and mind of Mother Laxmi, and She is willing to give us all that we need.
Our dream for so many is coming true.
The secret pulse of goodness can be felt this very moment.
The Divine breath of the Mother can be felt as well.
Neem Karoli Baba has given us the Blue Print of serving others, and being faithful to our dreams of serving others is a dream coming true.
Dance with the Self, and serve from your heart.
I love you with all my heart.
Love,
Ma Jaya
