Jagadambe - Mother of the World

30 seconds into the video my heart was beating about out of my chest. One minute and 30 seconds when the other musicians joined in, the bliss began.

What an incredible experience to have had! Oh! Wonderful!

I will need to acquire some of his music. Thank you Shani. :)

Dear friend, I took a while to read through some of your blog material, about your amazing experiences that you had with your teacher. However, each individual has very different experiences with perhaps the same teacher and so do the teachers have different experiences with their students. But then, the Teacher is also the student and the student himself/ herself is the Real teacher.

I would like to add a few lines of my own here, in this context.
Once a student of esoteric knowledge, who had been seeking all over the place came in contact with me, not as a student, but as a friend, the very first thing I observed aboiut him was, ” His speed to do things was all different than mine and he was quite wayward in his approach towards the Spirit realm, because he was also a young, intelligent(Extremely intelligent I must add) and Pure hearted Soul).
As he started to chat with me, talk with me, question everything I had to say to him, about eastern esoterism, I felt like he was already filled with the information he was seeking outside. He kept trying to place me on pedistals and tried to trick me many times, on words, phrases, sentences and meanings of things I had said at many other times, previously and thus made me feel “Be on your toes”.
One day, he asked me 'What is the Purpose of Life?” I had a simple answer :” To Live” He said ” That doesn't help me much”
Then I asked him , ” What is your Object in your life as a journey?” He said ” I walk up in my path and I find I see a mountain to climb in all directions. Whenever I reach the foothill, I chicken out, thinking, the mountain is so Tall and humongous, I am so small, how do I make this journey to go past the mountain?”

I replied to him, ” there are various ways to do that. firstw ay would be to make yourself bigger and bigger, so that you can hold the mountain in your palm for a while, feel the “Biggerness” for a temporary moment in Time-Space continuum, then release it and keep going. ” He asked further:” Why would I release it once I have accomplished it?” I said, ” Soon, you would realize that neither did you grow any bigger than you always were, nor did you capture the mountain into your palm. You just cancelled the separation/ division between you and the mountain. Thus the distance between the Observer and Observed is dissolved. If you continue to remain attached to your 'achievements and accomplishments' then, you would again fall into the Abyss of delusional world.''

How many times have you felt this way? After an accomplishment of something, even a Spiritual monumental experience, did you ever feel ” Everything is so temporary that it doesn't matter, if I had this experience or not?” The bigger picture and Cosmic design of everything has choices, reasons and outcomes. If we attach to outcomes, then we might lose out on choices and understand the reasons about why other results are rightfully placed before us, even though we don't like them?”

Good to hear of your experiences, Much love n Light
