Daily Prayers

Mother Divine, Mother of Beauty, Light and Love, fill all the spaces within us with Thy fragrance. May all be sanctified by Thy touch. May there be nothing hidden behind covers that we yet call and hold as our own. May all we are, all we have, all we do belong to Thee alone. Make us Thy empty whole and then fill this zero with Thyself, Thy Peace, Thy Ananda, Thy Beauty, Thy Force, Thy Love. And may these and all Thy countless gifts at each moment be only and only for Thee, for Thy Work and Thy Service.

Maa, may we be released completely, not only our soul but nature from the lower network of forces. May we be moved and driven completely and in all our entirety by Thy infinite Radiance and Force. Release us from all ignorance and darkness. Free us from ourselves, O, Mother Divine. Chase away all self-will and egoism and desire from each and every corner of our being.

Maa empty our mind of all the stereotypes of Ignorance and fill it with the Light of Truth. Maa empty our heart of all attachments and narrowness and fill it with Thy sweetness and universal Love that we can share with all. May empty our life of all desires and selfishness and fill it with Thy luminous Force and Delight. Maa empty our body cells of all habits and past impressions and fill it with Thy Beauty and Harmony and Peace. Maa may all the karmic impressions be dissolved and transmuted into links of Thy golden Light.

Mother Divine, may this world be freed from the clutch of the Asura who yet holds the world in its hard iron grip. May all that opposes the world’s forward march, the enemies within and without that threaten Thy beautiful earth be destroyed and vanquished forever. Leaving behind the past may we wake up to the beautiful future and summoning faith and courage, fuelled by the fire of aspiration, supported on wings of love and devotion, held by Thy infinite Grace take a leap towards the future.

Mother Divine, Maa,
How beautiful everything becomes when our thoughts turn to Thee and Thy Presence is felt in all things. It is as if a world long dead were raised up and came alive. All becomes meaningful and joyous and full of peace. It is as if all the struggles seem justified. All that the world can give pales completely before the marvel of Thy Presence. Without Thee all is dull and insipid, a thing without substance like an unreal dream or ghostlike images. With Thee all dances with joy and is full of beauty and light.

Maa may all discover Thy Presence. May all experience the felicity that comes from turning to Thee.

May we be constantly conscious of Thy wonderful Presence and all our thoughts and feelings and actions flow from Thee. May it be Thou who lives, wills, thinks and acts in us and through us and may we be simply what You would want us to be.

Mother Divine,
Thou art the essence as well as the very stuff of our lives for nothing can be without Thee. All power of thought and will and action draws its breath from Thee, yet men think as if it is their own. It is this great illusion of a separate personality cut off from Thee that is the source of all feelings of limitations and incapacity. Nothing is or can ever be cut off from Thee for that would mean an instantaneous dissolution. Yet this illusion of separateness is also part of Thy play preparing us in the womb of ignorance wherein the child knows not its mother and leads an unconscious, mechanical life until it grows up and is ready to take up the real journey and its unique challenges.

Each of our personality is a temporary construction by nature in each life to express something of Thee, of a particular mode of Thy infinity. It is the very purpose of distinct personalities. But our mind turns this distinction into division, the differentiation into separation as if a particular part of the body, distinct in its function could work independent of the whole body. Just as each of the million gods and goddesses are each a mode of Thy working, each an expression of Thy Power and without Thee none will be able to function so too each of us is meant to express something unique of Thy Glory and Presence. But if we believe this as something our own then the doors to all kinds of fall open.

Maa, take away completely this illusion of a separate personality. Let this last veil be torn so that we may live constantly in the truth that we are but a wave of Thy infinity. From Age to Age, life to life, we come from Thee, live by Thee and return back to Thee. While here, may it be Thou who lives and acts and speaks in us and through us. May we live constantly in the uninterrupted vision of this truth.

May our entire being go up in a flame of purification, fortified with faith and aspiration, sanctified with devotion and consecration, climbing on wings of love and knowledge that comes through faithful service and unconditional surrender and self-giving at Thy Feet, O Mother Divine. Let all contrary influences be washed away and only that which is sincere and true and open to Thee remain. May the fire of purification burn brighter and higher each day removing all the dross, purifying all mixture of desires and egoism. Make us once again stainless as we were before the fall yet completer and whole through the experiences of earthly life. Burn away all attachment that limits, ignorance that veils, desires that distract and distort, in the purifying flame. Let the coatings be removed and the pure ingot of gold, our true being shine radiant and bright with Thy Light and be offered at Thy Feet only for Thy Service.

Mother Divine, take away all that yet may seek the petty satisfactions of the ego, all ambition and vain self-satisfaction. Take away all paralyzing doubt and fear that prevents us from advancing towards the future…

Mother Divine, O embodied Purity and Love, may all in us be moulded of one substance, the substance of Thy Truth and Love.

Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa

Mother Divine, Maa may all our nature, our entire being go up in a flame offered to Thee, rising higher and higher until all is given to Thee without reserve or the slightest trace of resistance anywhere.

Maa may all our being open wide to Thee to receive the rains of Thy Grace descending from The very highest abode.

Maa may all we receive be turned to Thy Purposes, for Thy Work and Service and nothing else. Nothing be for our own, may all be for Thee.

And in this complete and perfect giving and this simultaneous complete and perfect receiving and a complete and perfect turning of all we receive for Thee and Thy Service lie the secret of everlasting peace and happiness, the key to transformation.

Our entire being lies surrendered at Thy Feet with deepest gratitude and humble devotion and love.

Mother Divine, Maa, With all its flaws and defects and limitations, there is something that is beautiful about humanity that keeps striving upwards, refusing to give up through its long struggle amidst dangers and perils. Especially this layer of humanity that seeks the meaning and purpose of life, shares the burden of the unknown future which yet it must shape through hard labour. Maa so it seems that Thou hast chosen humanity as the vehicle for the great disclosure and the grand fulfilment of Thy Divine Plan. Man carries within himself a priceless treasure, that once discovered can completely reshape his life. That treasure is his secret soul, the master – key to the golden future.

Maa, Let all this aeonic labour and struggle be not wasted. Let humanity wake up to its deepest self and highest possibility. May this blind and struggling human race open to Thy Light and see this world anew. May mankind shed the burden of the false I, the ego and the desire-self and discover the true soul.

Mother Divine, Mother of Light and Might

Mother of Radiances infinite

Mother of the gods, Thou art the Silence that weaves the stars and builds this many tired universe for creation to climb to the Lord as the soul of man would climb to the temple on the mountain tops. Thou art the Force that moves all creation setting into motion the cosmic whirl. Thou art the fulfiller of the dreams of God, the sole omnipotent Goddess hidden behind Thy Works. Thou hast created Space as the cosmic page and Time is Thy scribe to write the song of the Infinite. Thou art the splendour of the suns and the nectar of the moon. Each form is something of Thyself and Thy Presence in all things is the sure sign that creation cannot be vain, the seal and sanction, the promise and the assurance that however long it takes, the Divine Beauty and Glory will manifest one day upon earth and in all.

Mother Divine, Thou art the first glimmer of the marvelous Dawn announcing the ending of the Night. Fill our minds with the sweet glow of Thy golden hues. Maa, Thou art the flaming passion burning in the splendour of the unearthly Rose. May our hearts be filled with its fiery ardour and love for Thee. Maa Thou art the calm and tranquil sky blue and white stretching endlessly plunging into endless depths and fathomless vastness.

Maa Thou hast come amidst us assuming a human body. By Thy infinite Grace Thou hast assumed a human form entering into our mortal state so that our human nature, our human bodies, may receive Thy touch through contagion and wake up to Thy Light and Love. Awaken in us the will to conquer. Give us the faith that never falters, the love that gives itself to Thee without any resistance.

Come, Mother, come. Build upon our soul Thy royal estate of Truth and Light and Bliss. Come, Mother, come streaming with Thy rays opening our sight to deeper and higher things. Rebuild our lives with Thy Love so that we may be remoulded into the perfect image of Truth, a strong and luminous vessel of Thy Peace and Joy and Light and Truth and Love.

Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa Maa

Mother Divine,
as the sun rises and its glory spreads over the sky cleaving all darkness and clouds, filling the earth with renewed hope and purpose and joy, so too many the sun of Thy Truth and Love rise within our heart freeing us from all ignorance and doubt.

May Thy Peace and Joy fill us with new effort and hope and all in us may turn towards the ocean of light that beckons.

May we be no more confined to smallness and pettiness and meanness and selfishness.

May we grow in vastnesses and unity and light and peace and love.

Maa, Mother Divine, all our being lies prostrate and surrendered to Thee, at Thy Feet, in Thy Service.

A mixture of the animal past and the human present we carry within us the seeds of the future that Thou hast planted in the soil of our human nature. Maa, may these seeds of the New Creation sprout watered by the streams of Thy Love, lifted up by the rays of Thy Light, permeated and nourished by the Breath of Thy Grace.

Maa may the human in us be uplifted, transformed by Thy Hands of Mercy and Love. May the animal in us become Thy faithful servitor, Thy vehicle for the Divine Force to ride. And may this body become more and more Thy translucent lamp for Thy Light to radiate, a channel opal and hyaline for Thy Divine Forces to pour upon earth.
