Kali Natha Yoga Teacher Training

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

Namaste,

Through Kali Natha Yoga, people can grow stronger and be more kind to themselves and to others.
At all the Kali Natha Yoga Intensives, this Ma teaches more deeply.
Our next weekend Kali Natha Yoga Teacher Training program begins on Feb. 12.
There is not a time that your Ma takes everyone so deep in an intimate setting as when I share this Yoga with all of you.
I look forward to being so much with you and having you come closer to your Beloved through Kali Natha Yoga.
I teach the way Neem Karoli Baba taught and is teaching your Ma.
I am quite excited that I am able to prepare you to teach from the heart, body, and soul.
Sometime I teach for hours, sitting in the Dattatreya Temple with my Yogis and Yoginis.

If you can, there is nothing like learning yoga with the Mother and then teaching it.
I am so pleasantly surprised how many of you are teaching and how well you are doing.
It took many years to pass down this Sacred Yoga, and now it is the time.
It is being taught all over the world as I write these words.
Yet there is nothing like learning in an intimate setting.
Call the Kashi office to find out about the Teacher Training program.

I look forward to seeing you and taking you deep into yourself, where you can find your own pure beautiful self.

I love you.
Love,
Ma Jaya

Trust in Your Beloved

Monday, January 18th, 2010

Namaste,

This journey has been exceptional, and there is so much more to come.
Trust in your Beloved is trust in yourself; and if you do not trust yourself, you will find yourself running away from the growth that your Beloved wants so much for you.

Each person experiences something different from his or her Beloved.

You all receive a different energy, yet you all receive a deep and unconditional love that flows through you.
Where does trust of the Beloved begin?
Trust begins with a little trust that grows and grows.
This trust can grow by practicing what is given to you.

Begin by placing your trust in your Beloved.
You grow in meditation.
Your love begins to expand to having love for all beings.

There are three kinds of seekers: those who are asleep and want to be asleep; those who are serving; and those who are awake and want to be even more awake.
Your Beloved will do anything to take you deeper into yourself.

I will share with you all that my Guru, Neem Karoli Baba, shared with His Ma.
I never thought that this could be possible, yet this is happening even as I write these words.
Did you ever realize that you already know all these words?
I just have to remind you to listen to your own heart.
We will persevere on this journey of ours.
The heart knows the road, and the Soul is already there.
When you sit and feel the Formless, you catch a glimpse of what you have and will be able to give to others.

The stars in this early dawn twinkle merrily.
Bubbles of joy that burst into bliss can be felt in this early morn.
This is a path of bliss.
This is the path of light.
This is the path of peace.
This is the path of love.
This is also the path of pure Shakti, the path of success.

This is the path to God the father and God the Mother.
For this path that we journey together is also the path of self realization.
And so the flowers smile this early dawn, and the birds get ready to sing.
I throw you all into the lake of Baba’s heart, giving rise to ever-growing circles of love.

Our hearts burst into blissful waves of beauty that break into the Ocean of Light that you are all blessed with.
I intend to tell your hearts of this love, and you yourself shall hand it down to the next generation.

I am one excited Mother, ready to serve my children.
Love,
Ma Jaya

Kali Natha Tantric Yoga

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

Namaste,

The idea of having a spiritual place is truly ageless.

Every culture in the olden days sensed the need for setting a sacred space, where those of similar spirit could come together and practice yoga or other spiritual exercises.

Knowing this, Neem Karoli Baba led me to this sacred land of Kashi more than 33 years ago.

This is a sacred place where the seeker can practice his or her own way of spirituality.

The beauty of Kali Natha Tantric Yoga is that everybody can do it, feel it, become it, and combine it with any other yoga.

I have watched this yoga spread out all over the world, and I am astonished by how well received it is.

It is said that once you learn Kali Natha Tantric Yoga, there is no yoga you cannot do or accomplish.

The pace of this sacred yoga is simple and relaxed, and yet it touches every part of the body.

Kashi is the place where you can simply experience and feel your heart opening while practicing any form of yoga.

Baba says to share; and share is another name for God and Goddess, and so I do.

I share the words, the feelings, the thoughts, and the space of Kashi.

I share the sacred water in our healing fountain and the sweet scent of incense mixing with the fresh scent of tropical plants.

I have found that I share my appreciation for this sanctuary, this Blessed Kashi, with so many as they feel centered as soon as they enter our sacred space.

This spiritual haven is ageless.

It is the space where the greatest Natha of them all taught the first Nathas.

Lord Shiva taught of a receptacle for ritual and beauty, a space in which symbols and ceremonies help transcend the mundane and allow us to experience all of our lives in a more profound way.

I am honored to be able to teach this Yoga to all of you.

I have also taught the art of dying as part of Kali Natha Tantric Yoga.

They understand death; they respect it, love it and work with it.

People are dying all around us, and yet so many hardly think that they, too, will die.

Kali Natha Yoga prepares one for the journey of death as well as the journey of life.

It is all very exciting, mystical and beautiful.

It is my honor to teach and share with you as I have been taught and shared with.

Join us for Kali Natha Tantric Yoga, and let the streams of love flow within your body, bringing you joy and health and bliss.

Love,

Ma Jaya

Neem Karoli Baba’s Mahasamadhi

Monday, September 14th, 2009

Namaste,

Saturday night’s darshan and celebration of Neem Karoli Baba’s life and death touched us all deeply as we sat together at the dhuni.
I knew my heart was practically beating outside my body, and everyone could see and feel the love flowing.
They came from all over the country and world.
We sat as one.
We were one.
Our Baba led your Ma all through the night.
I asked my Baba as we walked around the Ganga to the waiting arms of my chelas, “How can there be so much love in the universe?”
I walked toward them with a fresh step and an open heart.
The tears of happiness, spiritual pride, and joy began to flow.

My Baba’s Mahasamadhi was more of life then of death.
It was cow dust time, the crack between day and night.
It seems that the sun did shine in a special way over Kashi.
Whom would the flower turn to, if not to the sun waiting to shed its light upon it?
If the earth did not did not spin, to whom would the light return, time after time?

We love our Beloveds in all of our different ways.
They truly know of our love.
Simply put, I am so happy here with my students, watching those who are in need being taken care of by the young and the old, generation after generation.

It is our Baba who guides our minds against temptations of greed, anger, hatred, power, fame and judgment of others.
There is no measurement great enough to measure.
It is said that sight claims the things that one can see.
My Beloved says, “Not true.”
It is emotions of the heart, the true love of the Soul, that claims our Baba as our own and as the world’s.
Our year begins with such joy and bliss.
Feel it.
Taste it.
Become it.

I love you all.

Love,

My babies love me!

My babies love me!

Om namah shivaya!

Om namah shivaya!
