Letters from Lord Gaṇeśa§
Śrī Gaṇeśasya Patrāṇi§
श्रीगणेशस्य पत्राणि§
LESSINGS FROM A GOD OCCASIONALLY COME TO SEERS ON EXTREMELY auspicious days in the form of direct communication. Such esoteric messages are śruti, that which is given directly by the Gods. Through the grace of my satguru, Śiva Yogaswami Āsān, the vision here transcribed occurred to me in the early 1970s while I was looking intently through the clairvoyant ājñā chakra, the third eye, near the site of an ancient temple where Kauai’s Wailua River merges with the North Pacific Ocean, where the Hawaiian priesthood invoked Gaṇeśa by the name Lono many hundreds of years ago. In my amazement I began to discern golden letters written on a great scroll in the ākāśa. They became clearer and clearer, until I was able to read them to a scribe. The three scrolls, revealed as letters from Lord Gaṇeśa, are released here for you to share. They are unique messages of mystical philosophy, phrased in cadenced prose. Reading them carefully, we may gain a deeper understanding of how this great God looks at us and at the physical world.§
The First Letter from Lord Ganesha§
Glitter, glint and gleam your temples.
Clean them well. These are the twinkle
that is seen by those who do not see.
Guard the gilded throne of Siva’s stall.
Keep it well lit and open. No night
doth fall upon His Holy Form.
He is the Sun, both cold and warm.§
Piercing vision of deep, inner spinning
wheels pierces through
the twinkle and the clinkle of
your temple Ferris wheel.
These enjoy the darshan flooding out. Those caught in
chain-like discs of darker hours see only glitter and the flowers.§
When we come, as puja calls, we hardly see those
who cannot see. We see those who can, clear and
crisp, their wasp-like form in the temple,
they adorn lovingly the floors.§
I tell you this, Saivite brahmin souls,
have no fear to shine the sparkle all the year.
Gild the gilded forms anew so that your temples
appear just built. Appeal to every chakra wheel;
one spins one and then the other.§
Gild—the base, the rudder, the anchor of it
all—doth stimulate. And sound, the one that
hears. Smell, the controller of the glands.
And so, when chakras spin all through,
your temple will be always new.§
Once you realize that some see, and others do
not condescend to kneel, but stand and look
with open mouth as sight and sound rush in along
with drainage from the bath, be not afraid to
open wide the door. Those who enter will
eventually prostrate on the floor.§
Keep it clean, and gild and glint anew.
That is your job, what you have to do.§
Love,
Lord Ganesha§
The Second Letter from Lord Ganesha§
Keep track of your paces,
for your walk makes marks.
Each mark is a reward or
a stumbling block. Learn to
look at the step you have§
made and the step you have not made yet. This
brings you close to Me. I’m not doing anything.
If I were any place, I would not be. You are
someplace, doing something. You are not.§
Insofar as this is a fact, there then is some
semblance of Me in you. If you are not what you
apparently are and you keep track of your paces
fore and aft in your mind, the karma balancing
out the dharma is nothing.§
Always live as nothing, and your mission is
fulfilled immediately. You do not have to live
long, but live well while you live. Be sum total at
any point in time.§
The mind through which you think you travel,
or of which you think you are, is not.
The awareness of which you think doth travel,
or which you think is aware, is not. Therefore, what is?§
That is a mystery, to the mind, to awareness,
but can be solved by you and Me coming close
together. Let’s do it now.§
Love,
Lord Umaganesh§
The Third Letter from Lord Ganesha§
Softness comes when you
are precise, concentrated,
with a sense of penuriousness.
The concentration of the intellect
comes from a vast, expansive ability§
accrued which has brought an intricate intellect into usage. Softness, therefore,
and a demure countenance and approach to life and associates
must be accrued through these means.§
If you are not soft in your intellect toward others,
refrain from speaking as well as thinking.
For the true intellect is accrued from within oneself,
and by listening to your guruji, who stimulates
the within of you for this to occur.§
Obedience is the keynote here, and the ravaging forces
of emotion are rejected. And I dismay as you retreat
into the devilish worlds in the plane beyond My sight.
I sit waiting for your return.§
Because I am here, it all exists.
The pole holds the feathers that dance in
the wind of desire around it.§
Therefore, the thing that we seek is
countenance, precision and self-effacement.
You know the rest. I wait for your return.§
See Me first before each advent into another Lord.
I am the gatekeeper, the Mother that cares for you
and makes you just right for the Father.
I am the now that makes you ready for the then.
I am the dragon that scares away the untimely events
in your life due to the ignorance
within your dharma.§
I am the innovation of your karma,
if you come to Me, My Being, your Being,
when you get here, now.§
See to this. I command you. I implore you.
I do puja to you by ringing My little bell in front
of Me, by eating a ball-like sweet goody and by
lighting the fire of Siva, My Father, in My Father,
through My head, burning at the top of My head,
your head, burning there, a flickering flame
burning there on nothing except the dross forces
of your dharma; the accumulation of your karma
of this life, burns away the top of your head,
My head, Our head.§
Success on the path is assured for you who have
the good fortune to hear, to see, to read or to
have been told to this message, is blessed by your
good fortune, is in tune with Me, your Self; and I
introduce you to realms beyond your limited
vision at this very moment.§
Love,
Lord Ganesh§
