Call on the Mother

August 19th, 2010

Namaste,

Deep inside of you there is sweet harmony behind all the chaos of life.
There is a simple order in the love that is born from your spiritual heart that goes beyond the complications that life brings.
It is a matter of allowing the love that you already have to come to the surface of who you are.
When you are quiet, there are always flashes of intuition that make themselves known.
The lake of your mind stays calm and still when you call on the Universal Mother.
She is kind and gentle and filled with eyes of compassion.
She consumes all that is negative and brings you to the endless bliss of harmony and liberation.
She takes from your life all the rumble of self doubt.
She brings you expansion of the Self.
All the Divine forms aid the mind to move towards the Supreme Self.
They let you know that this world does not exist in itself.
The Divine forms help you cut through all the Maya (illusion) that the ego puts forth as obstacles toward liberation.

Love,
Ma Jaya

The Dance of Love

August 16th, 2010

Namaste,

Woven into the heart of every human being is the dance of love.
This dance is not brittle, nor can it be stopped.
It can be deep into the shadows of ego, and one can find it hard to hear the music of the dance.
It lives in the inner world of our being.
It does not belong to the time or the space of life or death.
It is always there, just behind the curtain of existence.
It is like a fragrant scent that can be smelt, yet it is invisible and present.
It is neither in this world or another; it permeates in both.

This dance can destroy attachments if one listens to its song of life and death.
There are treasures in the quiet as you begin to be still and learn to listen to the stillness.
Treasures that you cannot believe are available to you.
In the quiet you can learn so much more about yourself.
Spiritual life should never be tedious or boring.
Each moment you can live fully with the awareness of the Universal Mother inside of you.
You are infinitely protected by the Mother in any of her many forms.

The Mother will lead you into the quiet world inside, heart merging to heart.
And so the dance goes on and on.
In the still and quiet you become the song of life and death.
To find your true quiet self, watch your breath coming in and going out.
You ride on the wings of your breath into the dance of life.
Listening to your inner song, you can climb any mountain or become a warrior against darkness.
You bring light to yourself and to others.
You enter the light inside of you, and it leads you on the pathway that guides you to yourself.
Listen well the song of the dance.
Close your eyes, and ask to dance with any form of the Mother you are comfortable with.
Keep breathing in and out, and feel the wonderment of the breath.
The journey to the Source is available to all of you.
Seek out the spiritual secrets within you, the secrets that will take you home to your Beloved.

I love you all.
Love,
Ma Jaya

Manifestation of the Mother

August 16th, 2010

Namaste,

In the teachings of Kali Natha Yoga, the entire creation is conceived as a manifestation of the Divine Mother.
The Mother is the conscious force that flows out and in of all beings.
She seeks the joy of manifestation for all Her children.
Each individual is essential to the beat of Her heart.
You all have to awaken to your true nature as an individual.
You are all a divine shadow of of Her past, present and future.
She is you, and you are She.

Nothing is too big or too trivial to be offered to the Universal Mother.
You learn to offer all of your self, all that you are, and all that you are meant to be to Her vast, open heart.

Each of your activities is an expression of Her love to reproduce Her own bliss inside of you.
She will take you to the different modes of joy and happiness if you ask Her.
Be aware.
Be conscious of your higher self within and without.
Train yourself to open for the Mother to teach you.

I love you all so very much.

Love,
Ma Jaya

Samadhi

August 13th, 2010

Namaste,

One cannot practice the state of samadhi.
However, you can experience samadhi when all of the shaktis are balanced.
When all the chakras are flowing without any distractions, you can taste the beauty of samadhi.
Harmony, along with gratitude for the ability to learn each day of your life, sets the chakras up to flow.

A feeling of peace comes over you; when this does happen, milk it for all it is worth.
Do not ignore these feelings of well-being.
Your body, heart and mind are telling you that you are connected to the Universe and the Universe is in you.
At times you can fall into samadhi by accident.
When this happens, go with the flow.
Take for yourself, and soon it will not be an accident when you fall into the true balance of your natural self.

I love you all.
Love,
Ma Jaya

The Mother’s Light

August 13th, 2010

Namaste,

Your Beloved gives you insight into the way of the Universe and the laws of the Universe.
It includes all religions, and no religion at all.
The flow of subtle energy is always moving inside of you.
You need to be aware to feel it anytime you want.
Discovering that you are never alone and that the Universe is with you at all times brings peace amongst the chaos.
Like the great Mother who always checks on Her children, know that you are Her child.
There are no boundaries to the Mother’s love. nor does it have limits.
The expression of the Mother Form is filled with unconditional love.
The intensity of the Mother’s pure light is the internal dimension of all matter.
At times it is hidden, begging to be found by your awareness.
Let your eyes open wide into the day or night of your life and see the Great Mother’s Light.
She opens you like a rosebud, and you can feel the touch of Her always by being aware.

This night, when you lay down to sleep, feel the fluttering of angels’
wings protecting you.
The Mother swallows the darkness and brings you light, even in the night.
And when morning comes, know that She says, ” I am there with you always.”
Once you know this, life becomes an adventure of excitement and bliss.

I love you all.
Love,
Ma Jaya

Your Own Worth

August 12th, 2010

Namaste,

Rumi says,  “You are more valuable than Heaven and Earth. You do not know your own worth.
Do not sell yourself at a ridiculous price – you who are so valuable in God’s eyes.”

Once you can glimpse your own worth, you are filled with humility -you, who are so valuable in the Mother’s eyes.
You carry Her caress in your heart.
How can you think yourself any less than the Gods and Goddesses think of you?
Your heart is so pure; it is only the ego that brings you unworthiness.
You are so infinitely precious to the Universal Mother.
You are the secret unity of the Mother and Her child.

It is you who chose the path, and you walk along by your own choice.
The time comes when the path does you, and then the ego begins to melt away and only life remains.
Listen to your Soul that wants to return to the Cosmic Soul while still in your body.
It is a love that wants to be known.
The ego cannot stand this and sends a great fog of illusion.

This path is the work of love and learning to become soft in the hands of the heart, even as you become a warrior on the brightest path.
Life is meant to be joyful.
Even when harshness touches you as it has touched us all, you know that behind the clouds of grief is the joy of being alive.

I love you with all my heart.

Love,
Ma Jaya

Intuition and the Self

August 11th, 2010

Namaste,

Intuition is potential in every being.
Though we all exist in the realm of name and form, it is through intuition that one can find the deep formless deep within.
Your deeper aspirations do not belong to your physical being; yet when the body is healthy, it is easier to be healthier of mind and soul.

At times the soul longs to become free of all forms and dependence.
At times one misunderstands this and continues to seek even more happiness in the names and forms of the world.  Through spiritual intervention by the Beloved, you begin to understand your deeper beauty without losing the greatness of the world that Mother Earth has given you.

Your Beloved wants you to discover the infinite expansion of self through intuitive realization.
Breathe deeply as much as you can during your day and night, saying:
“Breathing in a long deep breath, I know I am breathing in a long deep breath.”
“Breathing in a short breath, I know I am breathing in a short breath.”

Your actions and understanding of Universal law brings you all close to your Beloved.
You will have a deeper wisdom of the self.
This will allow you to step away from any of the Karmic Spaces like hatred, greed, pride, and so on.
Each Karmic Space has a touch of each as well as its own title.
When you begin to know the Self, you begin to act in a way to promote harmony and peace inside yourself and others.

I love you all.
Love,
Ma Jaya

Unconditional Love

August 11th, 2010

Namaste,

The most important obstacles to peace and love in the heart are the feelings of fear depression grief, discouragement, unworthiness and attachment.
Yet all these things can be gone when you begin to understand that your Beloved has unconditional love for you.
Even the thought that you can be unconditionally loved starts to remove of all of your obstacles.
Unconditional love brings you a new trust in yourself.
Once you trust yourself, you begin to trust others.
So many thoughts arise out of ego-thought.
Yet the feelings that you are loved and loved deeply stop the ego’s thoughts before they even start.
You are the boundless ocean of joy.
You are the immortal self.
You are definitely not this limited personality.
You are the grand architect of your destiny.
You can find great joy in your life.
Be dynamic in your love for your Beloved.
It only takes practice.
I love you all.
Love,
Ma Jaya

Call on Your Beloved

August 9th, 2010

Namaste,

In the Kabala, one says: “Here I am; I am ready to receive all that the heavens have to teach me.”
You begin to invite your Beloved to come to you.
Remember, your Beloved knew you before you were born.
Your Beloved will become known to you; you only have to be still and breathe in and out of your heart.
Is your Beloved sheer Light?
Is it a presence that you know?
Talk to your Beloved like a true friend.
Ask your Beloved to help you.
Nothing is too big or too small.
Your Beloved will listen to you, and you will know this.
If you will hear or feel a presence coming before you, listen closely.
Continue a dialog: add your own words, and express yourself in your mind.
This shuts out the ego.
Simply be present with kindness and compassion for yourselves and for others.
Be accepting of what is, and also ask what you want to be.
Embrace the moment.
Embrace the Ganga that flows in your blood.
Embrace your past knowing that you are not your past.
Feel your capacities to love, to learn, and to heal.
Let the breath rock you, embracing you with kindness.
You came here to find your true self and be joyful within.
This is the one thing that is stamped in the Soul with fire.
The ego sends distractions to lure you away from the fire of the Soul.
Do not give up on yourself or on others.
Love,
Ma Jaya

The Sun and The Breath

August 9th, 2010

Namaste,

Each breath is new and exciting, if you are aware.
Each day is new and exciting, if you are aware.
There is an ancient teaching about the sun.
The sun comes up for all of us every day and disappears each night.
It lives only one day at a time.
If you watch the sun come up and give thanks for your life, you could change your perspective and change the way you act every day, in every way.
As you watch your breath coming in and out, you can feel how life runs through us.
To feel the breath is like seeing the sun rise and fall.
Each breath comes in one time and goes out one time.
It is not you trying to control or trying to get the breath do something.
This breath brings a sense of self – just this eternal moment.
All of a sudden we are simply just here.
It truly is so simple; it is just coming back to the life we have.
When you can sit for just 10 minutes, stress begins to dissolve.
I love you.
Love,
Ma Jaya
Kashi Ashram
