Who are the Demons that the Divine Mother is always depicted slaying ?
Navaratri is really a deep time for people to take full advantage of. To open, to heal, to create, and to overcome their sense of being too little or too much, these are the demons at the Devi kills on the battlefield too much and too little… What a brilliant story in the tapestry of humankind.
It’s the time to shine with the most natural radiance grace ! And YES this is also a time when ‘ too much ‘ and ‘ too little’ will be activated, a time of discomfort, as the puss of wounds are squeezed to the surface for our Great Mother to take Her cloth of LOVE and wipe it all away. So celebrate the agitations as well as the moments of revelation. You deserve LOVE everyone does… nothing less than LOVE.
Our life is truly in the hands of our awareness and perception. And truly these sorrows or karmic patterns we carry are in so many cases undetectable because they are simply the way we have always experienced life. We live and die by them, lifetime after lifetime. But this does not need to be the only way life goes.
So let’s take this moment together dear friends and reframe… if we feel any feelings of self doubt … or not being enough in amy arena of life, lets name it a pattern, of ‘too little ‘ rather than just the limitations of who we are. And if we see ourselves feeling ‘better’ than another, or see another as ‘not enough or good enough, …etc. lets see that as the pattern of ‘ too much’ and not a reality, no matter what the details are of the story in front of you. From this awareness and perception we can open to the Great Mothers Love so that is so ready to ‘slay’ us at this time of Navaratri and discover what life is without the two demons of ‘too much’ and ‘too little’
Today begins the three days devoted to Laxmi, Sita , Radha… so much to say about that later, but for now just chant SREEM and you will align your self with their sublime vibration and very special gifts of fullness, radiance, beauty, purity… This incarnation of the Goddess knows Her worth as a woman, and knows humanities worth.
Jai Ma !!
With Love !
