The Breath Of Lakshmī

Om Shrīm Mahalakshmiyai Namaha

When we work with the awareness that Lakshmī personifies the fullness of life, we begin to enter the sublime realm of this deity field. Lakshmī is the fullness of life in all its fertile darkness and magnificent light. Think about what it means to dive into this fullness, embracing the sheer hugeness of it all.
As you contemplate the presence of Lakshmī, imagine that as you breathe in, you breathe in this fullness. And as you breathe out, you move into it. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out, opening wider and wider, deeper and deeper, moving into this inexhaustible vitality, life force, and grace. This is the breath of Lakshmī.
You can take this practice deeper by repeating the Lakshmī-bija-mantra silently, coordinating it with your breath.

From Suzin Green “Devi Demo

SECRET ONE/I AM SINGING (From a Poem By Kabir, Tr. Robert Bly)

There is a secret one inside:

All of the stars & all of the galaxies

Run through His/Her hands like beads.

I am singing, I am singing

The song of Love, the song of Love.

I am dancing, I am dancing

The dance of Love, the dance of Love

I am the moisture upon the wind

Of the Breath of God, of the Breath of God

I am the salt within the tears

In the Eye of God, In the Eye of God.

Here’s something to ponder–just two years ago, our small town had no kirtan at all.  Now we have about twenty regular Sunday Satsang attendees, and two live kirtan bands.  You can bring this wonderful practice to your community–all it takes is a few people, a space to sing & an IPod.  Try it in your town, you might be surprised at the results.

Krisha Das says it all this week.  From the liner notes of “Rama Bolo”, the chant from “Live On Earth” on this week’s podcast:

“Oh my friends, sing the Name of God! When it gets too damn hard, just sing. Have no fear, don’t give up. Sing! When it gets too good, sing. When it falls apart, sing. When it comes together, sing. Cry and sing. Sing and cry. Living sing. Dying sing. Listening sing. Singing sing.”

Enjoy the music, and I’ll see you in two weeks.  Namaste.
