Translation of Shri Mataji's Marathi letter (Oct 1978) - Navaratri celebration: "To All Sahaja Yogis, Many blessings Today is the first day of Navaratri. Today your attention should be on Shri Ganesha. His devotion is infinite. He has never worshipped anybody else except Mother. Hence He is so great. "All other Gods appear very strong. Everyone has some specialty. What is Mother's speciality? Her ego (aham) is nowhere felt by others. Hence Shri Ganesha who has surrendered to such Mother, is so wise and venerable. Mother has nothing with Her. Her very name begins with 'Ni' e.g. ' Nishakanchan '-- having no wealth, 'Nirlepa'--unaffected; 'Nirvichara' = thoughtless; 'Nishprayojana'=having no motives, 'Nigarvita' = ego-less, 'Niriccha'=desire-less etc. Therefore, surrendering to such Mother, who has nothing with Her, needs some kind of subtle thought, in that, Mother has nothing with Her and therefore, nothing can be asked from Her. It shows how Shri Ganesha by himself, is fully satisfied. Where does this contentment of Shri Ganesha come from ? It is own power. When the gate of the Self opens, nothing else is required. It is the Mother who opens this gate and therefore, She is so dear to Shri Ganesha. Complete Self-Realization is that stage attaining which nothing else is required. Thereafter, only enjoying the bliss and the satisfaction of fulfillment. You are made in the pattern of Shri Ganesha. Therefore, your power is unmatched, but for that, you should have devotion and innocence like Shri Ganesha's. Then Mother would admire you and the whole world would witness that beautiful sight..." http://www.free-meditation.ca/archive... "Today is not only the worship of the kumbha where the kundalini resides, but the kumbha becomes the flower pot...the kumbha becoming flowers and the flowers becoming light, and the lights with fragrance...come up to that...we have to change the world into a beautiful place...keep your attention on the source of power.." (Shri Mataji Navratri Puja 1990) Shri Ganesha is worshiped and it is observed as a day of silence. We take the name Shri Shaila-putri (Daughter of the mountain). The embodiment of the power of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, She rides a bull and carries a trident and a lotus in Her two hands. The 1st day of Navaratri signifies God's desire to create the universe which is called Ghata Sthapana (Laying Of the Foundation) and Shri Ganesha is worshiped as the first creation. Ghata Sthapana also involves symbolically growing grains in a Kalash (copper pot). Do Ganesh pujan on this day and Avahana of Shri Mataji in the form of Shri Gauri. Chant Shri Ganesh Atharvashirsha. Establishment of Shri Ganesha Qualities within us. Required - Ghatasthapana: Ghata - earthern pot Coconut - Decorated as we do normally for the kalasha Bamboo basket or a big plate filled with soil Navadhanya or the nine grains (soaked in normal water from prev night) Big lamp which we can keep lit for 10 days uninterrupted Required - 1st day: Kalash (made of Earth or Copper or Brass) 10 Leaves of Pan or Mango One coconut unshaved Kumkum paste Akshada (Rice mixed with Haldi & Kumkum), Loose flowers Small Garland for neck of Kalash One Parat (big plate) of Earth or Copper or Brass Loose Earth (soil) to fill 3/4th of the parat Wheat Grains (50 gm approximately) Water Ghatha Sthapana - 1st day of Navaratri The 1st day of Navratri is signified by the Puja of the God's desire to create the Universe ... which is called Ghatha Sthapana (Laying Of the Foundation), and then the puja of Shri Ganesha which was the first creation of the God. The puja of Ghatha Sthapana is performed to offer our prayers and gratitude to the God's desire for creation of the Universe and the subsequent evolution of life in this Universe. Symbolically the desire of the God is kept in the Kumbha and the creation of the universe takes place gradually in an evolved manner around this desire, which is represented by sowing the seeds of life in the soil around this Kumbha and the subsequent growth of the wheat shoots (which signifies life) around this Kumbha. Symbolically the Kumbha also represents the Sacrum Bone in human beings. The sacrum bone contains the pure desire. On this auspicious day, we should all pray to Shri Mataji to awaken our pure desire to become one with Her, the All Mighty https://sites.google.com/site/cabella... http://navratri.sahajayogaonline.com/...
