Lost and Found A 2008 Summer Solstice memory
From Memoirs of a Yogini
This morning at sadhana, joyfully
helping to serve Guru's Prashad, I could not find my boots! They were
not where I left them by the rock wall of the Gurdwara. Searching and
searching I was in tears. On top of everything else, when I went to the
latrine to splash my face I discovered my nose was bleeding!
Folks
at my Gurdwara Missal meeting were unsympathetic when I attended the meeting
in stocking feet. One guy said he had seen my boots but could not
remember where. Great. It was so exasperating. I could not walk up the
rocky hill to my tent barefoot! As soon as I started chanting, "Guru Amar Guru
Siri Sat, Kali Joog Rakhi Paat," --the mantra to find lost things,
I saw the boots clearly standing right where I had left them --on the
other side of the Tantric Shelter, on the shoe tarp.
After walking down to my booth to get a dollar I had parked them there before bowing before the Guru.
It
is a truth that in writing a book on the deeper yogic meaing of the Siri Guru Granth Sahib all my karmas have been burnt off. The only thing in my
way is my self! Any tears I have are from short-sightedness and misplaced blame.
