"There is a light that shines beyond all things on earth, beyond us all, beyond the heavens, beyond the highest, the very highest heavens. This is the light that shines in our hearts." Chandogya Upanishad

"Ultimately we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves, more and more peace, and to reflect it towards others. And the more peace there is in us, the more peace there will also be in our troubled world." Etty Hillesum, a young holocaust victim.

"You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream." C.S. Lewis

Good Morning Pooja People! Wednesday was Global Deeksha Day! I must admit I didn't feel more blissful. The world didn't shift for me, but I have a new mantra that puts me smack dab in the middle of the moment! It is inspired by James Swarzt. The most amazing Vedanta teacher. "I am awareness" when recited I find that colors are brighter and my mind quiets.

Good Morning Pooja People! I'm planning on attending a spiritual weekend retreat at The Saint Benedict Abbey, Still River, MA. The retreat is May 1-3., 2015. Please let me know if you would like to attend. There is a cost associated with the retreat but very fair. Please message me if interested.

Good Morning Pooja People! We at Pooja People have received many inquiries about how to create a home altar! We feel that it is important to bring sacredness back!

1.) Choosing a spot that is visible for the altar. Don't stick god in the closet.
2.) Choosing a color is vital to energizing the space.Begin simply by placing a cloth on a shelf or table. The cloth can be one of significance or of a specific color that has meaning to you. Everything about the space is ultimately personal.
3.) Choosing a theme is one of the ways to create a home altar. We recommend using the four elements to ground your space. The four elements are fire, water, earth, and air. Fire can be represented by candles; water by a bowl of water in which you might float a flower petal; earth can be symbolized by a rock; and air by incense...
4.) Choosing sacred items will lift the vibration of the space. Honor your ancestors by presenting their pictures or items that remind you of them. Add an item for your past and one for your future and of course your masters or divine energies.
