Namaste My Dear Family,
You can’t know the joy I feel to have received all your acknowledgments and signatures on my Father’s Day card!
Now I can imagine how Shiva must feel when all the devotees come to share their love and devotion with Him in worship.
As a father of this family, I assume His divine Shiva Energy and send you all my love and every blessing that your devotion continues to grow until we are all One in our every action.
To that end, I wanted to share with you some great news about my time with Shree Maa over the past few weeks, and our progress in developing a unified plan of action.
Shree Maa and I will focus on sharing our sadhana and teachings globally, and we will hold satsanghs throughout the world, traveling to the extent of our individual capacities.
We will also continue to retain a home-based presence in Northern California, and will likely set up another base somewhere in India.
I suspect Shree Maa will spend more of her time in California, while I have a greater capacity and yearning to travel, teach, and perform sadhana internationally.
Currently, we reside in a three-story home in Fairfield, CA, which is over an hour drive from Yuba City, where devotees are constructing the Lalita Chandika Temple.
Because we can no longer easily climb the stairs, we have decided to move into a one-story home in Yuba City, closer to this temple. We are in the process of purchasing this home and the escrow is set to close in the middle of July.
Several of you have asked about where to send Father’s Day Contributions (Dakshina). It is my deepest wish that all Father’s Day contributions be made payable to the Devi Mandir, and be used in the purchasing of this new home, which will keep Shree Maa with easier mobility, and closer to the community of devotees, who can provide her seva.
Take My Love, Appreciation, and Blessings, Swamiji
