Wow! A feline beauty on a catwalk!
On the day 10 of the live telecast of Sri Suktam Yagna, a blackish cat placidly entered from the right side of the screen. It was not only a beauty with brains but a charm with calmness. It meekly sat behind Om Swamiji who was doing the preparations for the yagna by placing firewood in the firepit and was humming ‘Jai Ambe Hare Jagdambe Hare’. On realizing its presence near Him, a delicate smile appeared on His glowing face. A powerful smile that can eradicate all sorrows, sadness and ignorance from one’s life!
The feline took a round and went away from where it had come. As usual the yagna began with the ahutis with ghee. The same mantras were repeated, the same ingredients were poured one after the another, the same monotonous process. I followed Swamiji’s instructions. Swamiji poured ghee, I did too. He poured havan samagri, I did too. He offered firewood, I did too. I acted in accordance with Him and performed the whole process like a copycat.
As soon as Swamiji started chanting the 15 mantras of Devi Ma taken from Lakshmi Tantram, I started feeling uneasy.

The burning sensation around my heart chakra appeared all of a sudden. I found myself gasping for breath. I could not breathe from my nose. It became hard for me to even press the jaggery icon in one of the options on Sadhana App. As the chants became louder my discomfort multiplied further. I was breathless. With great difficulty in breathing from my nose, I opened my mouth for some more oxygen.
Jai Sri Hari ma'am! The symptoms you are facing are not of normal sadhakas, we have read these in books of Great saints. You are going through all these hardship and still care to share with us to inspire us is a hallmark of true saints like you. Thank you very much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI am constantly amazed by your devotion Chandrika Ji. I read the shlokas out loud. I felt a lightness in my skull and cooking sensation near my eyes and brows. Easy to read and not too long. The conclusion make my heart skip a beat in joy. Beautifully narrated. I have to no words to describe the conclusion. I pray that your Sadhna fructifies into your dearest wish. God bless you.
