Dear Divine Ma,
What Do You Want Me to Learn Today?
“You must start treating your body with the things that make it stronger. If you ignore what your body needs, it will just keep giving you trouble and keep you from going as deep as you could in your sadhana. Your body is a vehicle for higher consciousness. It is ready and willing to take you to higher spheres, but if you don’t give it the fuel it requires, or the exercise and sleep it needs, then it’s like trying to make a racecar zip around the racetrack on fumes alone. It can keep going only so long, but then it’s bound to break down. Your body vehicle did fine until you were 65, then one part after another decided to stop working. It’s running on empty. Pay attention—give the body it’s due. It’s not that you need to coddle it. But at least read the manual and do the required maintenance!”
