Daily Prayers

Mother Divine, Maa to us Time appears as a series of disconnected moments strung together on the frail thread of memory but with no deeper link between them. Thus we lead our life from day to day, hoping the future to be a smooth projection of events growing out naturally from the present. But life is full of the unexpected and the future always carries an uncertainty. However to a deeper seeing Time is a rhythmic flow carrying our soul’s journey forward, impelled by our own deepest aspiration. Events and circumstances are only devices and means to clumsily translate our inner state and inmost aspiration on waves of Time. That is where the secret of our Fate lies. It is where the scroll of destiny is written. To live on the surfaces of life is therefore to live in confusion about the ever-changing landscapes. To live in the soul is to flow smoothly riding upon the waves of Time rather than being drowned in it……

Maa let us be firmly established in Thy Presence so that Time becomes our friend and events and circumstances become stepping stones or even jumping boards towards the future. That is the seed of truth, the grain of gold hidden behind situations. The rest is often like a kernel cast away by the advancing march of Time.

Mother Divine, Mother of Sweetness and Light, Maa, how beautiful would life be if it progressed harmoniously carrying all the elements together in a rhythm of unity, moved by the force of Thy Oneness. But we are impatient and the ego wants everything for its separate self. Even the God-lover and the God-seeker is happy and content with his own salvation or the release of a few while the rest suffer and struggle as if condemned to an impossible illusion. But Thy Will is for a collective realisation of the Divine Life here upon earth, not elsewhere. Therefore it must be as nothing can eventually stand permanently in the way of the fulfilment of Thy Will.

Maa, Mother Divine, may life blossom beautifully, harmoniously, together linked in a common aspiration, held by the chord of Thy vast universal love.

May we progress happily held by Thee in a commonality of the Divine Harmony, Peace and Bliss.

May all creatures open to Thy Grace and humanity respond to the call of the Future, blooming towards the New Creation it is meant to be.

How painful it is to cling to the old ways, the moulds of the past. Though once useful, one can see their limits and limitations.

May we boldly surge towards the new born luminous Future.

Forward, ever forward; together, always together…..towards the New Manifestation.

Mother Divine, Maa, by Thy Grace the storm has abated, the cyclone has passed away and Nature is once again in one of her calmer and smiling moods. Her wild and reckless dance in an all-destructive fury has shown us once again that our mastery of her elemental forces, tremendous and powerful are so incomplete. Her movements on a large and magnificent scale teach us the lesson of humility. And when cut off from the outer world, with little means of communication, she gives us a chance to once again learn to go within, to shut off from the world and be focussed on Thy Presence which alone can master Nature in completeness and turn her wildest moods into a calm and sweeter joy.

Maa the storm has washed away much that was not needed in its wake. Thou hast made us stronger, wiser, even purer by this cleansing process. May we keep this lesson always with us and know that the best way to live is to always remain in contact with Thy Presence. No storm can touch when we are sheltered in Thee. Nothing can disturb or harm when we surrender ourselves completely to Thee. Then the storm itself reveals Thy Presence hidden in its core and the strong winds end up making our souls stronger and wiser.

Maa, our sweet and infinite Mother, Mother of Light and Might, Thy Name is the best protection against all the storms and cyclones of life. The storms do arise, driven by the momentum of our past. They come because of blind unconscious spots within us that open the doors. They arise because we move out of Thy Protection through our actions and thoughts. Yet if through the passage we hold on to Your Name then we are carried by Thy Love through it all. And if we can continue to serve Thee with faith in Thy Grace, then not only do we escape through the storm but when it abates we find that we have actually taken a leap, that some dark spot where the dirt of lives had accumulated has been cleared, we feel lighter as if a great load has been lifted, we grow in fact stronger and wiser through it all. All that is required is to endure the passage with faith, with complete trust and confidence in Thy saviour Grace. But we are only quick to disown the greatest treasure of faith, quick to give up, quick to doubt, quick to complain. Hence the misery prolongs, the storm turns into a hurricane driving us far from our goal, or changes into a tornado causing much destruction and devastation in its passage.

If only we could learn to endure with complete faith. If only we learn to remain open to Thy Grace through it all, surrendering to Thy Will.

Grant this faith and certitude to all, this faith which is the greatest guide in the darkest days.

Sweet Mother, Mother Divine, Thou hast placed a priceless treasure, a beautiful jewel lamp in the heart of all creatures. This lamp has been lit by a ray of Thy Light and hence it never goes out. How much the blinding storm may ever try to extinguish it, how much the mantle of darkness may ever cover it, even when its light is not visible on the surface and to the surface eye of man, it is there, burning in the depths at the portals of the soul, guarding it against the assaults of darkness. It is the jewel lamp of faith that Thou has lit up in the human heart.

When something of its light enters the narrow passages of the mind, it turns into fixed belief. When it is darkened by human obscurity and denseness, it changes into fanaticism. Yet moved by this light, men have happily sacrificed everything including their life for an ideal whose victory they never saw, for a truth they could not grasp, for a cause they did not understand. Faith is indeed the pilgrim staff on the journey, the support and the safety on the uncertain roads of Time.

Maa, give this Faith to all, a Faith, complete and unshakable in Thy Victory.

Mother Divine, Maa, as the sun sets, all grows calm, as if in a reverie and quiet remembrance. This deep calm is different from the calm one witnesses at dawn. Mornings always bring new hope as if touched by the sun, everything is energised and in the quietude of the hours preparing for the ascension. It is love and ananda spreading around from the silent inmost depths of the heart. One need not be in some special outer surroundings to feel this. All that is needed is to be open to new progress everyday as the invigorating touch arrives, the kiss of new life raising the dead to renewed effort.

In the evening it is different. It is like the sweet remembrance of one’s true spiritual home, the urge to rest in the bosom of Love, to draw back one’s consciousness into the lap of Peace and the Bliss that is asleep in creation.

Maa may this contemplation grow deeper and deeper, this Peace and Quietude permanent, this Love and Beatitude a constant inner state.

Mother Divine how beautiful is the joy of solitude when one can quietly contemplate Thee, simply be with Thee. Modern civilisation has robbed us of this joy. We are always surrounded with a host of people and things that cry for attention. The framework of life itself has become complex beyond measure and it is quite time and energy consuming to merely maintain it. Much of human energy and time is wasted or consumed in earning and spending on false and artificial needs. It seems to be a world created by the desire self for the expansion of its vain empire.

Yet one can snatch these moments of solitude, even amidst work and activity and, inwardly tuning ourselves to Thee, discover the joy of Thy communion.

May these moments increase, for these indeed are the priceless pearls that one gains as treasures of the soul.

Mother Divine, Maa, with each pulsation of Time creation moves forward. Some waves collapse, others leap forward. But the waves that leap and the waves that lapse are both safe in the breast of the ocean. So too the creation with all its upheavals and turmoils yet moves forward held within Thy breast. Thou art Indeed the supreme security who holds us always within Thee through all the ups and downs. Creation and dissolution, life and death, success and failure, happiness and sorrow are terms that the mind uses when we are not yet conscious of Thee. But once we become aware of Thee, of Thy Force acting on each of the elements of creation, then all is a single unity, a single wave of Thy bliss, an endless act of Thy Love.

Such is the state that Thou grants once one enters into touch of oneness with Thee, by Thy Grace. Freed from the dual tables of joy and sorrow they live in Thy immutable Peace and Bliss. All then becomes Thy Joy, Thy Love, Thy Peace.

May all share this peace and joy that comes through an absolute trust in Thee, of living in Thee, of seeing the world with Thy eyes.

Sweet Mother let our heart become a pure crystal that reflects everything without distortion, showing us just as we truly are, without the least colouring and covering, the least gloss or justification. May the power of true sincerity develop in us so that we can offer our being in all its entirety, without hiding anything, without concealing anything. Before Thee we must be without the least guard or defence, without fear or shame, since You are the only Friend who accepts us just as we are without judging or condemning and, Thy infinite Grace is ever ready to lift us out and Thy Love always happy to transform us regardless of our difficulties.

O Supreme Healer, heal us of all that contradicts our aspiration. O Supreme Light spare us not the purifying ordeal, if need be, for Thy Work so that nothing in us creates frictions and resistance to the workings of Thy Force. Make us, O Supreme thaumaturgist, the perfect and flawless crystal we aspire to be.
