709. Om sadasiva-pativratayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is Sadashiva's devoted wife.
When I miss Amma, She sends Her emissary. So Swamiji came to visit and it was, as always, so, so brilliant! His prayers, his bhajan made me feel such a deep connection with Amma. And he spoke about fear. Why do we have fear? When we identify ourselves with our physical body, then fear arises. It's a lack of confidence in our selves. When our connection with our Guru and the cosmos is lost, that's when fear rears its ugly head. When we are totally in sync with our Guru, then we have nothing to fear. We are asked to do spiritual practices so that we can strengthen our ties with the universe. Our thoughts today become our reality tomorrow. So we have the power to change our future. And if we are masters of our own future, then why fear anything at all?
When Swamiji puts it so beautifully, it almost sounds simple. And yet that's possibly what it is. Really very simple and easy to follow. Something to chew on...and change!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
