Namah                                                   Think it Over





                                                 reveals Herself.... we are told and retold....
                                                 How would darkness recognise Light? Why
                                                 would darkness cry for Light, if not it is
                                                 something which is other than darkness....
                                                 and yet in it hiding or hidden, that recognises
                                                 and cries for It?

                                                 Thus, deep within, we surely know and this
                                                 knowing and the Knower thus impresses and
        what we see: the wanting and seeing perhaps   presses.... to express Itself, as the “Stress of
        coming from different parts of the being. And   the Hidden Spirit (7)”.
        when Light blesses, decides that there is no
        escape for us, It reveals more and more of   “Faith is the soul’s witness to something not
        the grime and slime in the Nature.... and we   yet manifested, achieved or realised, but which
        cry more and furthermore...              yet the Knower within us, even in the absence
                                                 of all indications, feels to be true or supremely
        Instead of rejoicing, initially at least and   worth following or achieving (8).”
        perhaps for a long time, “Light, endless
        Light (4)!”, we lament, “darkness has room no
        more,” …. But then, what to do, when “God’s
        contract signed with Ignorance is torn…. (5)?”
        And this brings us to the Word that was
        received even before all (and was forgotten,
        till was reminded, as a flash of recollection
        and correlation). Though, it has been received
        and read many times before, on This Day,
        the sequence, though for Her Natural and
        Deliberate, yet for a human being magical
        and mystical it was and is....

        Yet again, the Divine Mother, comes to the   Daunting
        rescue, “If a few shadows, a few flaws can be
        seen in the great Light which manifests Thee,   And yet, the outer being, the surface con-
