Contemplations – Table of Contents – My Guru’s Teachings From Within

The Inner Contemplations – Contents

Listed below are the Contemplations offered over time as deep prayers within myself at the lotus feet of Shri Guru. The responsive flows from the revered Master, received internally in the mind, were often received immediately, at times coming in later.

The words of Shri Guru, are reproduced exactly as received and written down then.

Only punctuation is added, with paragraphs, because the flow comes in similar to being spoken to.

The year(s) of a contemplation is the reference used to facilitate collating and presenting them. Click on the year buttons to access the contemplation(s).

May the readers find in the divine words of Shri Gurumayi Ji the guidance of divinity, the blessings and glory of the Master. May they find Her eternal presence within themselves and feel assured of Her love and protection, as I now do.

May we imbibe into our lives the deepest spiritual energy flowing as Her holy words and, living as angels, see all as one with the Guru. As one with Shiva, the Self of all; as one with our selves. May my surrender to the divine will of Shri Guru at last be complete. May Her peace and love descend upon our species on Earth .
