Day two of Navratri

9 days , 9 Godesses

Day Two: Brahmacharini | ब्रह्मचारिणी

Epitome of Tapas

Brahmacharini represents Parvati in her phase of tapas. She walks barefoot carrying the japa mala in her right hand and kamandalu in her left.

On the second day, we should stop all the fripperies of life and take to deep penance and spend this night in meditation alone.

“Aum Devi Brahmacharinnyai Namaha!”

ॐ देवी ब्रह्मचारिण्यै नमः॥

Jai Maa Durga 🔱

(My desperate and sad prayer.)

I…

I pray…

I pray for Israel.

I pray for Palestine.

I pray for all of us now.

And if you condemn me for taking sides,

or judge me for not taking sides,

then maybe you don’t understand

the depths of this love.

Because love itself is the prayer.

And the one who prays.

And the longing and the light.

And the darkness and the answer.

And so I pray for you too.

For all of your conflicting parts.

For all the children fighting within you.

And I pray for you to know

the Consciousness prior to identity.

I pray for you to know

the I Am itself.

Before I am a Palestinian.

Before I am an Israeli.

Before I am Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, or an atheist.

Before division itself.

Before any notion of God or her absence.

Before time.

Before all of this began.

Before the world,

the joy and the sorrow of living.

Before territory and history.

I am what you are.

I am your rage, your grief, your loneliness.

Your fear. Your vulnerable heart.

Your powerlessness. Your shaking.

And through these non-dual eyes,

perhaps we can finally love each other.

In spite of our beliefs.

In spite of our ancient rage and our lust for revenge.

In spite of religion.

In spite of what the holy books

tell us to think.

You are my brother.

My sister.

My child.

My mother.

My father.

I pray for love to permeate the world.

Before it’s too late.

I pray for awakening.

I pray for Palestine.

I pray for Israel.

Before it’s too late.

I pray for all the children.

All the babies.

All the mothers and fathers.

Sisters and brothers.

Friends and enemies.

I pray for the end of hostilities.

Before it’s too late.

I pray for all those who are scared right now.

I pray that my small, sad prayer helps in some way.

Even in some small way.

Even in some tiny way.

I pray for you.

I pray for me.

I pray for us.

I pray…

I…

Purified Narcisism

Atmarama is one who is established in self. When one attains the state of atmarama, one becomes self suficient, satisfied within himself and feels no need for anything else.

This stage of purified narcisism while being emerged into ones own existance produces bliss - ananda and keeps one self satisfied. 

However our effords for self satisfaction can never be compared or equalised to an intimate relationship we experience with a lover. Shanti one experiences in atmarama devoid of bhakti is just a form of purified narcisism. To experience higher rasa, Atma must relate to Paramatma and experience spiritual flavour. 

Bhakti requires that intimate relationship between Atma and Paramatma. This is required in love. Lover and beloved. Once a person finds himself out of the darkness of ignorance and realises himself, becomes established in the self, then his spiritual journey can start and one can experience more than just peace and ananda. One can then emerge in bhakti and experience higher rasa with Rasaraj Sri Krishna. 

In this state one remains individual and yet still loses himself completely in constant giving. Then a mystical neverending cycle happens; giving, one receives even more, but only to give again and to receive yet more… love is an ever increasing cycle of ectasy, it is a verb, an action, it’s not an abstract construction and definitely not narcisism, purified or not. Love is Krishna.

Jay Shri Radhe!

Day 2

"Ya Devi Sarv Bhuteshu Brahmacharini rupen samsthita Namah tasyai Namah tasyai Namah tasaiye Namo Namah "

She walks on lands of whole universe, baths in celestial rivers , Wears planets as Rudraksh and drapes herself in light of thousand Suns .

Mata Parvati in her brahmcharini swaroop when sat to do penance She was accompanied by tiger and a pair of pigeons which symbolise in a way determination that needs courage and vision to be together with the her true form As AdyaShakti , Thus she called as Eka " Who is One and only like herself" or " Who has obtained oneness with herself"

She personifies the power of wisdom , knowledge, perseverance and Strong will. When her thoughts reach beyond the boundaries of illusion and restrictions upon free thinking. She breaks the barriers of orthodox vision , and challanges the prejudiced teachings passed to  generations . She gives the wisdom of the mind   to look beyond what is perceived by just eyes , experiencing the knowledge of whole cosmos within oneself . 

She embodies inside every person who believes in progressive thinking, who doesn't shy away from challenging the superficial norms imposed on humanity, who have willingness to debate with the falsehood spreading in society, those who read , listen and think . The scholer of modern times , she is in you , she is in me , She is Brahmachaarini. 

On this second night of Navratri festival let's celebrate this energy of nature as power of knowledge within everyone , with this dance we call Raas

Raas-is the path to self-discovery, harmony and wisdom within every form of બ્રહ્મચારિણી

2. I like that i'm curious about loads of things and genuinely enthusiastic to know more 😯

3. I like, or appreciate, that i'm super motivated in terms of self development and stuff like that - overall kinda helpful in life I'd say ahaha (even tho it doesn't escape the fact that things are hard!)

4. I like, again or appreciate, that I'm drawn to spirituality or curious about it, and so now it's lead me back to shri krishna, which is nice! hehe

5. I like that I am open-minded and willing to consider everyone's povs - I like trying to be a mediator between people.

"firstly, when you get this, you have to answer with 5 things you like about yourself, publicly. then, send this ask to 10 of your favourite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool)"

Okay here goes...

I like the fact that i'm not like other teenagers, i'm somewhat different and much more mature attitude wise.

I like the fact that i'm loooved by all aunties, like literally all aunties be setting me up as an example to their "pretending to be a teenager" kids.

I like that i'm an introvert... yes idk why. You will always find me sitting at back of the class, just not interacting with peeps and writing some random shit in my diary

I like that i have such great parents who don't beat the shit out of kids just cause they got lower marks than that brainy topper.

I like that i gave myself an opportunity to be all Dharmic cause that shit really chases all anxiety and depression out. Jai Dwarkadheesh.
