Gratitude Sharing
Jai Maa & Jai Guru Deva Sadasya's,
Today I'm reflecting upon the expansiveness of gratitude, how my heart softens, opens and vibrates with my truest frequency when I truly think about how blessed I am in this life, in this body, as I am~whole and complete.
Being a sadasya in this lineage has forever transformed my body, mind and has anchored my connection to my spirit, soul and atma. I believe that this lineage, and all of its teachings, wisdom and gems aligns us with our own divine auspiciousness and our collective divine harmony in ways that words fall short. Its the bhava that moves me, and inspires me to connect with the peace and serenity of the here and now. As Shunya ji says, "spiritual oneness is the underlying reality of our physical existence."
As we prepare to meet with family this week to celebrate, Thanksgiving, the season of gratitude, I am eternally grateful for all of the harvests that this lineage has created, and how our atma is continually reaping its benefits. I'm sharing some benefits that I feel below, please feel free to share any gratitude that's in your heart!
🌾 1. “Reaping the fruits of the soul’s labor.”
A harvest becomes the natural outcome of the inner work we have tended—patience, compassion, faith, discipline, and presence.
🌱 2. “Gathering what has quietly grown in the unseen.”
Rewards arise from invisible spiritual processes—prayer, intention, studentship.
🌞 3. “The season when seeds of intention return as blessings.”
A gentle way to acknowledge that what when we show up and listen to the teachings new seeds plant in thought, word, and then deed comes back multiplied.
🌟 4. “Receiving the sacred abundance that follows faithful tending.”
Emphasizes divine partnership: we cultivate, and spirit completes the work.
💫 5. “Harvest as a mirror of the soul’s journey.”
What we gather reflects who we have become—our maturity, resilience, and alignment with dharma.
🌿 6. “The earth’s reminder that nothing offered in love is ever lost.”
The return of every loving act, every generous effort for Paramatman.
🔥 7. “The culmination of a season of devotion.”
Harvest becomes a spiritual milestone rather than just a material one.
Thank you, Sadhya Soumya, for these wonderful words, that clarify that although we don't seek reward, what comes will be a reflection of our inner work and so will show us how we have grown, and be a blessing to us - for as we sow, so we reap. Your explanation has deepened my understanding and lightened my heart this morning. Jai Maa
