Wings of light to you!
With the wings, you light up brightly with all colours. You radiate charm,
wisdom, healing, happiness, abundance, peace, music, dance and prayer. These
are the nine kinds of lights adorning your body. Your mind is a cool lake of
love, service and creativity. You cool passions with love, and serve all with
pleasure. Your mere presence transports all around you into realms of delights
undreamt of. You become an island of jewels, mani dveepa, the meaning of great
Buddhist mantra "om mani padme hum", I am the coral in a lotus.
Lotus is the awareness of the world, and coral concentrates it to make it a
supreme power of ecstasy.Sri Vidya explores this concept of love and service
through an intimate ritual of the divine mother. Love cannot exist without
intimacy with the divine because it has to move from distance to closeness to
equality, and from equality to identity. Service, healing, music, dance and fine
arts are the media to propagate love and service, the two wings of light.
Dance is yoga, music is meditation. In dance and music, positive attitudes
of both body and mind participate in becoming one with the devi. We promote Sri
Vidya through group rituals involving song and dance. Devipuram has been chosen
by Devi as a starting point to move from darkness to light, from untruth to
truth.
The path is through an enjoyable combination of loving and serving, dance
and music. Remember again that loving fulfils you and serving puts power into
that fulfilment. Evolution is quicker through participatory endeavour. It is
not only quicker, but much needed in this modern age.
