Gratitude to "bad" parents

I always had an issue with how people who were abused in the childhood can be  grateful?
I also thought that parents decided to have a child, then they took care of that child, they played with that child, molded him or her but at the end they expect the child to be grateful?
As you can imagine I was not the most grateful one looking at my thoughts.
Well I got it today.  My  biggest click.
We choose the family that we are born in.  We choose  those who would create what we wanted them to create in the best possible way.  If they treat their child poorly (I am not saying it should be an excuse) then they will do their best to be the best abusive people possible and we, as children,  will get what we came her for.
Or we might get lucky and meet our  Guru early and he will  take care of these far from being perfect parents.

Do I have to have a Master?

I can tell you now confidently that the answer is yes.   The best way to describe having a guidance like that is that if you have a chronic illness (your ego) and your personal doctor gives you specific medications for every manifestation of your illness until he takes the root of illness out si that you will be cured, liberated.   It might be unpleasant at times but as he says himself: “If the right person tells you that you are hopeless you are in bliss, and some other person can give you a compliment and it would put you in suffering.”   But all this master business was difficult for me to figure out.   Despite the fact that I was a seeker for a long time and felt that I was ready to meet a Master when it did happen I went through so much nonsense thoughts and emotions that I would not have gone through having being prepared better. Now it saddens my heart that our kids will be struggling as well.   My step daughter, who is such a successful young lady (pictu...

My Guru and the Scandal

I have a 34 year old guru.  He is as young as a child on a playground and wise beyond imagination.  He is also unpredictable and does not follow any rules.  He is the one who had a huge scandal in 2010. Sometimes when people hear about him and do the search on-line,  they find some ugly tales about him. Sometimes I get these remarks:  "Lena, I looked him up on-line and... are you sure you know everything about him?"  "Lena, I have some friends from India and they told me that he was a rapist.  I am concerned about your and your daughter's well-being"  I decided to write a post about it so if I ever hear anything like that again, I will just send a link to this post.  I would like to do a little something so people do not miss him. I met my guru in December 2007 and my main message is: DO NOT MISS AN ENLIGHTENED MASTER! DO NOT MISS A GURU FOR ENLIGHTENMENT1 He was blackmailed by powerful criminals.  He did...

"Better Than Sex"

I heard this expression many times.  Friends of mine use it when they are describing something that was absolutely outstanding in the feeling of pleasure.  I heard it about tennis, food, etc. I now have another reference point - awakening of the Kundalini energy - OMG...
