Ma Jaya teaches from a depth of wisdom and practicality which allows us to return again and again to turn over the words, and bring them into our moment. Ma is a consummate story teller, using words to paint a picture or illustrate a point that otherwise might be hard to grasp. These stories are often simple but profound, similar to the way that Swami Nityananda and Neem Karoli Baba taught.

PAINTING WITH COLORS OF LOVE

Out of the dark silence, the Universe was born, bursting with color. You are all born an unfinished painting. The subtle colors of love, life and death are yours to paint with.

Attend to the magnificent art of the Mother, and come into the great depths that you never before noticed. Watch a particular tree from the morning on. Pay attention how nature keeps painting the tree and yet never paints a stroke. In the dawn, the tree waits for the dim light of morning to touch her leaves and bark, and to awaken her dreams of green. Each of the seasons has strokes that will change the color of the tree right before our eyes. Sight reveals the different moods of the tree, and to everyone it is different.

We are beautiful creatures that can transform the Earth; yet on the other hand, we can destroy the Earth by scratching at Her and not paying attention to the damage we do.  Feel the color my chelas, feel the colors and know you can change any color with your mind and any stroke of your heart. You hold the brush and the Goddess holds your hand as you paint what your heart tells you to paint.

You have all the colors in the world available to you. Are you feeling dark this moment?  Then paint lines of yellow high over green fields, and brighten your life with your own color. Black consumes and plays with the color which brings happiness to the heart.  One of the most intense colors is red. A red dot over a black background can bring happiness to you like a jewel in a dark night, bringing a beauty of its own. White can be used to express your feelings to the world if you wish to do so. The blue is of the unexpected…”out of the blue”…these are words all of us have said one time or another.

I love you so very much and the colors you bring to Earth and to your own heart.

With love, Ma Jaya
