My dear love…
I am around 2 mths late in
posting for your birthday. Sorry!
So you have turned seven …the
roller-coaster ride that we have had as a daughter-mother duo is now taking a
clear shape
Sometimes your little head must
be wondering why maa always tells you stories (you get bored) of Raja
Vikrmaditya, the king of immense power who chose humility and truth over pride
and aggression , she is also going to bore you with stories on Raja
Harishchandra who stood for truth despite all the odds he faced in life!
You are now well versed with Bapu
and his saying “an eye for an eye will make the whole world blind” – you love
that poster in your room right?! J
I have noticed that your little
brain inspires you to lie (sometimes) or present inaccurate data infront of maa
simply because you don’t want to incur her wrath J
. You also try to show that you are grown up enough to know what is right and
wrong for you …. I am amused and more worried…this is the time… this period of
development will separate my being a good mother vs a failed mother.
If I am able to instil the truth,
integrity and sense of self respect in you ..i will die a peaceful death,
knowing no matter where you are and with whom you are …you are a happy person
for like I always tell you …your talents, your truthfulness, your books are
your best friends …no human can replace them …the love that we always search
for in opposite genders or outside us is actually always residing within us …love
yourself…respect yourself …for you can give only what you possess!
you will understand it when you
grow up J
you are too small now J
Ok , so here is a story by maa….hope
one day you read it and know the depth of it …hope you will know that what I ever
wanted was to see you in peace and happiness…
We have been watching Devon ke Dev Mahadev and for a little
soul like you, it comprises of lot of characters and story lines J but when you grow up
you will realise they are CONCEPTS which had to be told in terms of characters
and story lines to allow them to permeate a normal human mind who is too busy
thinking about saving and future and has no energy left end of the day to get
into quantum spirituality
So you saw the character
Jalandhar and also a character called Andhak. I will talk about them in some
detail here –
They both are SHIVANSH , meaning they were born out of energy of
Adishakti /Prakriti and Purusha (in the form of Shiva- the ultimate, and , Parvati- his split female part)
The focal point of those
characters –
They both were born Shivansh but Jalandhar chose to
represent OVER-AMBITION and Andhak, LUST.
So how can a negative energy of over-ambition
and lust be born out of that which is TRUTH (Satyam Shivam Sundaram!)
Put simply it can be understood
like this – every energy in itself contains both the positive and negatives of that
energy (Genetic science, physics and your mausi ma can explain that to you
later)
They both are provided with a
matrix of choice, to choose their path, each path leading to a particular end…
the truth gives you options …again and again to play with your choices and
change the end product of your journey
Jalandhar (read over-ambition)
despite his sheen and glow of immense love for his wife, sense of doership for
his people and a brilliant spark of truthfulness (truth defined as per his
level) had to achieve salvation and go back to his source. Andhak, on the other
hand, born out of pure darkness chose to let pass all the data given to him
through a dark tunnel of his mind and soul and arrive at the residual value of
the data or skewed form of the same e.g. when his Guru Shukracharya (read him
as INTELLECT) tells him he is a SHIVANSH ,
Andhak choses the data “so I have the power of Mahadev (GOD of all GODS)”
…..instead of the truth that “he was the son of SHIVA and PRAKRITI and hence it
was immoral for him to desire PRAKRITI as his lover” !
So, when you receive a set of
data ..do give it a chance to appear infront of you in the most objective
manner – you see we give a character to it based on our level, it is as IT IS!
Do you remember the story point
where Jalandhar complains about how his father SHIVA (read truth) chose to
ignore him despite the fact that he was in pain! This is what Shiva told him “How
could I ignore you when I was never separate from you, I was always there..with
you …in form of your wife, guru and
mother but you chose to ignore me”
Someday you will feel the
pressure of my moral science lectures, someday you will fight with me for a
normal life of being ok with things not approved by me… someday when I will
seem separated from you …remember Jalandhar and remember what SHIVA said to him....
you were never abandoned, for one cannot abandon oneself right? You are born
out of me…so you are me and I am you … like SHIVA says …YOU and ME happens when
we make a choice of seeing duality…if you remember that you are but a part of
me you will know that what I do for you is for me J I do not have different
standards for YOU and ME…
One day you will be a mother and
one day you will know the experience of ONENESS…that little girl with her own
head, mind, soul and learning and yet carrying you inside her …always….it will
fill you with immense joy and you will want to give her the bestest in the
world…
we all have SHIVA, Jalandhar and Andhak in us...
we all have SHIVA, Jalandhar and Andhak in us...
In my world , the bestest that I want
to gift to you is the bestest ever –
SHIVA
THE TRUTH
SATYAM SHIVAM SUNDARAM
With loads of blessings and
prayers
Maa!


This is so touching.....describes moms very good. I will die a peaceful death if I know my children are happy...I like that thought
ReplyDeletewhat fine legacy you are leaving her..both in this article..and in real life...perhaps this is what indira-the tigress- gandhi meant when she said, "if you teach a man you teach an individual but when you teach a woman, you teach a nation"...
ReplyDeletewhether or not you are able to amass the tangible for her the fact is that you have succeeded in giving her a fine life anyway by inculcating in her the capability to appreciate finer things in life...
m sure she'll grow up to be a gem :)
Beautiful words from a beautiful Mother to her beautiful child xo
