SURRENDER!

"Why is surrender so sweet and yet so painful?"

Chela asked! (and thanked God that $-ji was not snoring away instead of ...)

$-ji smiled mysteriously! And asked a question, instead of answering!

"Where is Misir-jee, beta?"

It was Ganatantra Diwas, so Chela assumed that Misir-ji was enjoying the holiday and oiling his Hercules duty cycle or spending the free-time watching the parade or something (T.V. had arrived in the village and Jwala-taranga, old and arthritic had left dancing for a long time!)

$wami-ji then popped another question: "Where is BEE?"

"No clue, guruji ...!", Chela sheepishly replied!

Then suddenly the familiar buzzing reappeared and as Chela, never a multi-tasker tried to process the sounds made by the Bee and $-ji at the same time" realized that the Guruji was saying, "If you focus on whatever you are doing, seriously and sincerely, BEE will never leave you -- for she did not just arrive, left,and re-appeared! She was fated! Perhaps that is what free-will and choice is what it is about! Focusing on what is there and then activating it with the help of fate and free-will!"

Human choices, really!! ONLY THEY HAVE THE LUXURY OF CHOOSING! And that is what 'Chela Tales' had been all about!

Both Guruji and Chela, went to sleep and $NORED!

While the rest of the A$HRAM cursed them for all the noise they were making and kept sleeping, anyway...!

OR PURRHAPS NOT...!

Take it or leave it...!

Love, Light, Clarity,

Tthe surrender, then, of vanity.
To choose, one needs to be aware of the options. Chelaji fortunate that he finds the ashram while Misirjees walk on pondering over the changing mores of Gantantra Divases. The Ganas bound by myriad ropes knotted by a variety of tantras.
May your message reach them all as well as the Bee....

It is indeed good to be back here!

The 'surrender' as always, was never about vanity, ego and all those baggages that MA taught Her chela! Through giving as a gift, asked, that yellow booklet and making Chela give alms to the blind beggar that at first invoked fear in her child, but even though he did not receive or accept the alms as he should have, the beggar did return did he not, in those silly chela-tales and similar sharings...? In original form and at times in different ones.

Sometimes Chela wondered if Misir jee, dedicated as he is and always had been with nary a doubt..., was really sent to the village to keep the villagers awake and SAFE...!

Confusion prevails in MA's Mayapuri as must be readily obvious, just as it was meant to be! But, so too sparks of intense sincerity, when they can and MA allows them to visit -- Jwalaataranga's mela. In MAYAPURI!

Vanity, just as Reality is in the perception! Words convey the messages just as the mercurial Hercules bike carries Misirji! Some are happy to have him around to keep the darkness at bay, others feel he is a nuiscence and spoils the tandraa of the village!

But duty must be done, despite the consequences! MA is the one we answer, and SHE alone has the power to judge!

DUTY and VANITY do not mix! But when they do, the WORLD witnesses CHAOS!

Hain naa, dear friend...?

Love, Light, Duty,
