Navaratri Message
For ages the nine nights of the Divine Mother have been celebrated in India. Let us remember that the Divine Mother in her multiple aspects represents Prakriti, the nature of manifestation. She is the earth where food grows as well as the karma that is taking place, the water to nourish and purify cells, the fire to digest and transform as an oblation, the air to provide oxygen and erase sufferance, ether to conduct Prana and nourish the mind. There is no attempt to Truth or Divinity for the one who ignores her Lila (activities).
The inner child we are is longing for her grace to make sense to our life. As Adi Shakti, she is the first power of manifestation and only source a spiritual seeker can relate. She governs our mind, senses, emotions, well being and attitude towards divinity.
Therefore, as Durga, she is the great conqueror of the emotions and ignorance; as Lakshmi, the provider of well being; as Saraswati, the inspiration for the mind and the liberation.
Nothing of her free manifestation is impure though she may appear in some aspects frightening to the fools lost in the meander of ignorance. For the one who knows, she is Karuna (compassion), Krupa (grace), Prem (love) in all aspects.
This Sadhak, her servitor, needs two hands to pay homage to her: the right, and mostly the left. The right ensures an external conduct in accord with higher principles. The left ensures a total purification of the subtle channels to eliminate roots of polluted samskara which can create sufferance and tamasic forces. Those ceremonies are always a conquest on ourselves and a sign to reconnect as much as possible to the essence.
May Happiness prevail. Lokah Samastah Sukino Bhavantu.
—Sri Hanuman
