Wisdom of Love Mahavatar Babaji

The SatGuru Becomes Your Everything

He, God, reveals Himself to everybody. How one sees things depends on the level at which one is vibrating. The first revelation when he reveals Himself  here inside your heart is this Burning Love. I didn’t say a feeling of Love; I said a Burning Love. When this Love awakens, it changes everything around you. 

Sri Swami Vishwananda

Mahavatar Babaji

The winds of war and change blow across the lands of Earth. Do the people make war or is it those leaders in charge who make the decision for war? As one travels the lands of Earth, artificially divided into countries by arbitrarily drawn lines of political persuasion, one perceives that people are the same everywhere. Most people wish for peace, happiness, the means to take care of the family physical needs, work that they like to do, creative outlets and a direct connection to The Divine.

Sri Swami Vishwananda, who is Satguru for you who read this, teaches: When you say, ‘Yes I want to move forward. I want to develop my spirit’. You will realise a great change within yourself and you will bring this great change into the world.

Mahavatar continues: In order to have peace in the world each individual must create peace within himself. Meditate and pray for your leaders of the world that they create peace inside themselves and then it will be reflected outward into the world at large. Love all and serve all.

Find joy in meditating such as the Atma Kriya Swami Vishwananda and myself have given to the world in this age. Find happiness in chanting the name of The Lord. See The Divine in the all. Be at peace with yourself and the whole of creation. In this way you contribute to your own happiness and to the whole of humanity and your world.

Prophecies Fulfilled - Krishna, Sri Swami Vishwananda, Mahavatar Babaji

PROPHESIES FULFILLED: 

 KRISHNA
On the wedding day of a nobleman named Vasudeva and Kamsa's sister, Devaki, it was prophesied that the eighth son born to Devaki would destroy Kamsa and reinstate a virtuous ruler to Mathura. Kamsa imprisoned Vasudeva and Devaki, and proceeded to murder every child of Devaki's the moment it was born. According to Hindu legend, Vasudeva and Devaki's seventh child, Balarama, was transferred to the womb of Rohini, Vasudeva's first wife who resided in the cowherd village of Gokul. When their eighth child was born, Vasudeva escaped from imprisonment, carrying the infant to Gokul. Vasudeva exchanged the infant for the newborn girl of his friends Yashoda and Nanda, assuming Kamsa would not harm a female child. Although Kamsa attempted to kill the child, it slipped from his grip and ascended toward the sky. At that moment, an oracle warned Kamsa that the one who was prophesied to destroy him was still alive. [This child was Krishna and this prophesy was fulfilled]

SRI SWAMI VISHWANANDA
In India with Sri Swami Vishwananda in 2008, Gurudev told us: "Many devotees will be leaving me, even many in this room (there were approximately 40 of us). I have met with Mahavatar Babaji and he told me my disciples do not listen to me [actually place Swami's teachings into their daily lives], and there will be a cleansing. Yet, for every one that leaves many more will come." That prophecy has been fulfilled.

MAHAVATAR BABAJI
Mahavatar Babaji gave this simple prophecy: ". . .four beings sit in communion in the cave of Mahavatar high in the snowy, cold Himalayas of India. When a certain frequency of resonance manifests between the four beings, a small rabbit suddenly appears in the middle of the circle of four. Mahavatar says to those sitting with Him: 'This rabbit I am sending to a small sick boy in the Czech Republic on Earth. His mother will see it in a pet shop and take it home to the boy without knowing from where the urge to do so arises. In time, the boy will heal and both the mother and boy will progress spiritually and in connection with the four of us sitting here today for the benefit of mankind. When its purpose has been served, the rabbit will disappear. The Gods have infinite ways of communicating with mankind how to attain the Divine. Therefore, be alert to all that happens in your lives." This Czech prophecy has been fulfilled.

Life As It Is and Can Be - Mahavatar Babaji

Often, we receive emails or comments placed on Virtual-Babaji-Vishwananda blog, like this following one, and the life situations written here seem to be of a general nature. All people seem to have these same experiences in life at various time cycles.

“Dear Mahavatar Babaji, dear Swamini Vishwalakshmianandama,

I have something on my heart that troubles me since a long time already, and in fact it is a challenge I experience every day and I would love to turn to Babaji with this issue, and ask His blessing and support- the issue I have is maybe one that other people face, too. It is this: every day it seems there is a struggle going on inside of me between what my Heart and Soul REALLY wants, and what my mind "thinks" it wants or "needs". For example: I do have a lot of free time at the moment. So, what I, inside my Heart, wish I would do, would be to meditate and pray a lot to make good use of this time given to me at the moment. But then, reality often looks a little different- yes, I do my prayers and some Sadhana every day, but much more time is spent doing things that I know do not really benefit me on my spiritual path. So, even with that knowledge, it still seems too hard to get out of this habit of spending so much time on Facebook, Youtube, etc. or just doing things that occupy the mind and transport us into another "reality", but do not benefit us spiritually- why is this?

 Is it the "fight" between the light and the dark that goes on as soon as we aim for realisation? But all the saints managed to overcome it, and they all did so well- how can I achieve this? If I just sit down to meditate or do Sadhana, suddenly I feel so lazy and bored- but I want to break free from this habit. Sometimes I do manage, but then the next day its again so difficult- it’s a struggle every day- and it makes me feel very sad, because I do not want to feel like I wasted my precious life, and who knows how long my life will be, it could be finished tomorrow if He so wills it! 

In Love and seeking your spiritual blessing and guidance "

Mahavatar Babaji Response: Dear Ones, as Swami Vishwananda continually teaches you, “The longest journey of your life is the 18 inches from head to heart.” Do your spiritual practice, your sadhana, pray, meditate, do jappa or chanting the name of God. Accept whatever The Divine sends with equanimity of mind; stay in the heart spirit as much as you can or choose. This is simple and man makes this process of surrendering everything to The Divine complex. Take as long as you want or as long as The Divine wills it. Sometimes, you seem to remember it takes centuries. It most times does! As Swami Vishwananda says, “Try to enjoy it!”

Love and blessings to one and all,
Mahavatar Babaji

THE  RELIC  RING

He placed the blessed ring upon my hand,
Mahavatar Babaji, the Param Guru
And Sri Swami Vishwananda Premavatar,
The SatGuru.

He blessed the ring,
And through my hand
A river of golden energy flowed deep within
To every cell and every angelic connection
Through heaven and realms beyond this Earthly plane.

Like the Rock of Ages and the blood of Christ

Which bring His love within the Heart,
“Place this ring on a chain,” Mahavatar said,
“And were it near the heart at night
And in the day wear it on the  finger
Where He places it at the proper time and place.

Time will pass and when Samadhi is taken
Like the stories of Saint Jerome and his writings,
So it will be placed within the relic picture
Of a certain Swamini hanging at that Holy Place
Called Shree Peetha Nilaya,
Wherein Bhakti Marga is the Path to the Divine.

Like the body and blood of Christ offered there,
Relics like those of Saint Jerome
Bring Christ Consciousness whenever viewed,
Revered and kissed,
If even for a moment to those who attune.

“Rock of Ages cleft for me.
Let me hide myself in thee: . . . . . . . . .
Mahavatar Babaji,
Sri Swami Vishwananda Premavatar
And Christ Jesus,
All are “The Way, The truth and the Life.

Tribute To The Gods - Narayana-Vishnu, Shiva, Mahavatar Babaji

(Inspired and written in meditation with

Mahavatar Babaji in His Cave
In the Himalayas 17.4.2013)

Vishnu steps out of Narayana The Supreme,
Who is standing before you . . . still . . .  like a
Beautiful Blue Murti in a blue mist that obscures Him,
As if He is not ready to reveal Himself completely.

This Great Lord Vishnu moves forward to you
Leaving the Murti-like Narayana behind Him.
Vishnu moves through countless, golden energy archways,
One after another, like the many arches
In the greatest, most lovely Cathedral in this world.
Vishnu’s raiment shines with a plethora of jewelry,
Crown of gold, silk garments, and a
Radiant face and countenance that
Opens your heart to Divine Love.
The sweetness of the honey and milk contained in all
Of Vaikuntha, this God Vishnu offers in His blessing.
You stand in awe before such sweet, gentle, powerful Divine Love.
Your heart opens and melts into this Love, so pure, so true.
And you bow and touch His lotus feet in complete
Love and surrender.

Shiva bursts into one’s awareness like lighting

Flashing on the horizon – powerful, threatening,
Beautiful, regenerating and destroying with
One flash of powerful Light and Love.
You touch your cheek to His and
He says, “I love you.”
Bliss follows . . .
You bow in awe of His destroying-regenerating
.  .  .  Powerful .  .  .  Love !

Mahavatar Babaji . . . Oh, Belove-ed . . .
His Beauty and Radiance brings you to
Your knees.
You cannot move a muscle.
You stare at Him in wonder.
Standing in the Himalayas with Him,
This Great Being steps into a silver container.
Mahavatar gracefully sits and invites you
To pour Ganges River water over him
From a beautiful silver urn,
Again and again, in a ritual Guru Bath
That only His direct disciples are permitted.
You feel bhakti tears of humble submission
Of all your “sins and misdeeds.”
And you are humbled and eternally thankful
For His Divine Love and Grace.

The Gods, such as these, take a thousand,
Nay . . . countless . . .  steps toward you when
You take one step toward them and
You humble yourself and surrender to Love !

Inside the Purity of Love

Sri Swami Vishwananda, July 2012
E-Card August 20, 2012

Swami Says of Maha Lakshmi

Wherever He is [Maha Narasimhadev] Maha Lakshmi is present with Him.  I know you love money very much, more than you love God, but if you show a little bit that you love Him, you will see that Maha Lakshmi will run to you, also. You see, Maha Lakshmi does not represent only wealth. The Hindu Tradition says that Lakshmi, because She is showing that money is coming out from Her hands, is the Goddess of wealth, but wealth for the spiritual people, also means spiritual wealth, which is the best wealth.  That’s what Christ said, “Don’t make your bank here on Earth, but put it in Heaven with lots of good karma. Then when you take the next life, you will have a very beautiful life. Otherwise, in your next life you will be miserable. You will be even more miserable! How many people realize that?

You think that you have only one life. You don’t have only one life, you have many lives.  (Taken from “Just Love 2” [pages 288-289] –Sri Swami Vishwananda speaking at a Puja to Narasimhadev, South Africa, January 2010)

Maha Lakshmi’s Prasad

The woman, in despair,
Laid her head down on the table.
The red rose of springtime had long lost its bloom.
Snows of winter hung on the windowsill
In cold testimony of Old Man Winter
Wrinkling his frosty brow.
Children played on sleds and toboggans
On the hill outside the woman’s window…
And some just watched.

The shoes were placed just outside the door
On December 6 for St. Nicholas to fill…
As was Germany’s tradition
Since...well...long, long ago.
Where will come the means to fill
The children’s shoes the mother worried…
In deep and sorrowful despair.

She fed her children a meager meal
Of porridge and bread and put them to bed.
All through the night she prayed for help from above
That some kind soul would
See the empty shoes and place a little
Something in her children's St. Nicholas shoes.

As dawn came, the mother peeped into the room
Of her children ever so peacefully sleeping there.
Then she dried her eyes and went to the door
To bring the children's shoes inside to slip into them
All that she had…
One penny each for the candy store.

The woman opened the door
And in amazement and bewilderment
She wonderingly beheld. . .
Her children’s shoes overflowing...
With candy and toys and fruit and all good things.
Each shoe was filled to the brim
And spilling onto the floor.

The woman’s tears welled up again and she prayed:
“Dear Heavenly Father,
Who art in Heaven,
Hollowed be thy name…
From whence your bounty came
I shall never be certain.
Oh Heavenly Divine Mother Lakshmi,
She who gives spiritual wealth
As well as the material needs of
Her children on Earth,
Thank you from a mother’s heart
That we have learned from our
Beloved SatGuru, Sri Swami Vishwananda…
You are bound only by love.”

-Swamini Vishwalakshmianandama

Note from Swamini Vishwalakshmianandama: Here on Earth we tend to think of miracles as great and small. Surely, truthfully, they are The Lord showing us Love and Love cannot be measured. As I finished this post and was ready to "preview" it and post it, a miracle occurred, which many would call small, and I say it is Maha Lakshmi's Love for all of us, her children on Earth, that this blessing came.

I had placed a video entitled, "Scarlet Ribbons" (red ribbons) at the end of this blog entry, and I wondered if it would be nice to place the title of my poem, "Maha Lakshmi's Prasad," in red, like the scarlet ribbons of the video. I did not have my hands on the computer, as I was simply reading the entry. Suddenly the title of the poem, "Mahalakshmi's Prasad," before my eyes, changed from black to red !

Swami in Jyotitmath India

Swami in Jyotitmath Narshima Temple Yesterday

Thursday, Swami and the people with Him were in Jyotirmath, India. This is high in the Himalayas with the white-capped, Sacred Ganges River powerfully flowing hundreds of feet below the narrow, curving highway one is traveling.  Jyotrimath is a pilgrimage place most visit on their way to Badrinath where the Immortal Mahavatar Babaji has been seen through the centuries and it is said that He has an etheric ashram there which few have experienced. Jyotirmath is one of the four cardinal pithas established by Adi Shankara. 

“Matha Pitha Guru Deivam” is a Sanskrit mantra often chanted in Hinduism. Translated word for word it is: “Mother Father Teacher God.” The meaning of this mantra is the greatest truth, and is the order in which one offers reverence. The mantra comes from the Vedas.

First comes the mother (Matha or Mata) who gives birth to the child, thereby bringing us as a child into this world. Next comes the father (Pitha or Pita) because it is the mother who knows the truth about the father and she guides one to the father. The mother and father takes one to the teacher (Guru), and it is the Guru, through his teachings who guides one to God (Deivam or Devam), the Consciousness or self-awareness of our real self.

Jyotirmath and Badrinath remind me of Mahavatar Babaji and I spent some joyful days once in Badrinath. One morning in meditation Mahavatar transmitted the following poem. For more pictures of Swami in Jyotirmath, please visit - http://vishwananda-de.blogspot.com/2012/06/einige-bilder-aus-jyotitmath.html

LOVE DIVINE
By Mahavatar Babaji

When time stands still

Devotees of the Lord know him

At the core of being.

Let This Be.

And let this happen to you, my friends.

In freedom, and in Love Divine.

When the winds of time blow into eternal

Fire-form of Himalayan winter’s frosty snows,

Turn your back on worldly woes

And flow with eternal time.

The Satguru is by your side

In form . . . in love Divine.

Follow his footsteps into eternity,

And Love all those along the way.

Do not waste time on Earthly troubles

But smooth the waters into heavenly stillness,

And be the one you were in the beginning,

Just love and nothing less or more . . .

It is truth, my friends,

In sacred essence,

There is only Love Divine.

PRIDE - The Arrogant Deceiver

JUST  LOVE I

Swami Vishwananda tells us How to Surrender

If someone is a Master, He knows what is best. Then one just needs to surrender. Even if one´s mind is saying, "no, no, no!" to it, it´s only by being humble, only by humility, by humbling yourself, by putting aside what your arrogant and prideful mind says, that you can really surrender. - Sri Swami Vishwananda (Just Love 1)

From the Ganges and Jordan RIvers to Computer Land

The Beauty and Amusement of Photoshop

When I saw the amusement through the eyes of my Disciple as she viewed this picture on the Internet of Christ with a computer, I was reminded of a true story I have heard sadhus in the Himalayas repeat in recent times. My friends, you all are aware that the Internet captures, simultaneously, the beauty and the trash dump of human duality of life on Earth.

Mahavatar Babaji Tells Story of the Celestial “Internet”

Once, not so long ago, there was a yogi in the Himalayas of India who wandered from village to village begging and doing his sadhana. He was a sadhaka, a person sincerely and completely seeking Remembered Enlightenment, because we all are enlightened but we have forgotten, as the Masters teach us.

One day after wandering for seven years, the yogi sat on the banks of the Sacred Ganges River in India doing his daily puja to Lord Krisha. Suddenly, he saw a sphere of light descend from the Heavens and out stepped Lord Krishna holding a small rectangular silver box in his hand. Krishna greeted the sadhaka, who was a devotee of Krishna and did a puja to Krishna every day. And sometimes he did an abhishekam to Krishna also. This sadhuka loved Krishna greatly and was a true Disciple.

Krishna touched the yogi on his forehead at the ajna energy center; and instantly the sadhaka Remembered Enlightenment. As the yogi knelt at Krishna’s feet, Lord Krishna raised him to his feet. Krishna asked the yogi if he would like to see how He kept track of him and his spiritual progress. The grateful yogi, of course, answered, “Yes.” So Krishna opened the silver rectangular box which had a small screen which looked exactly like an I-Phone in today’s time.

Lord Krishna’s silver box did not have an apple with a bite taken out of it on the cover. Instead Krishna’s silver rectangular box depicted a book with a silver ribbon marking a certain page and engraved with the words: “Book of Life.” Krishna pressed some buttons and immediately the man’s life, like a movie, flashed upon the screen before his eyes. And Krishna showed the man scenes from his future which showed that the yogi would now build a temple and teach many people the Vedic truths of old through the memory Krishna had restored when he touched him on the forehead and propelled him into Remembered Enlightenment. The now Enlightened yogi thought of Krishna’s silver box and the present-day Internet as well as the truth of the saying: “As above, so below.”

My friends, of course, this story is a vision the yogi saw through the blessing of Lord Krishna. These kinds of appearances happen frequently in the Himalayas to sincere seekers who have reached a certain spiritual attainment. And, in truth, there exists stored in the etheric records of All-Time all the thoughts and actions of man since his beginnings on Earth. And the Masters who walk with you at this time on Earth have access to all this knowledge and wisdom. And so do you, for stored within you, to be awakened one day when you are ready, resides this same knowledge that Krishna showed the Himalayan yogi. So, strive to become pure in Heart so that you, too, may Remember Enlightenment.

Believe In What the Divine Shows You

Sri Swami Vishwananda attending a recent wedding ceremony of a family member, holding his niece Shraya

Have faith that what you are hearing within your heart is true.  As long as you do not believe in what the Divine wants to show you, you will not advance.  The moment you sincerely have faith in what you feel inside your heart, it will manifest in the outside world.  You have within you the willpower of construction that comes from the constructive willpower inside the mind.

Happy Birthday 34 Dearest Gurudeva

H A P P Y   B I R T H D A Y   D E A R E S T   G U R U D E V A

13 June 2012

This poem I wrote for our dearest Gurudeva on his 29th Birthday when He was with us in the United States of America. He said to me: " I like your poem. Write your poems of the Guru and we will make a book."

Today is his 34th birthday. He has everything and the blessings and Love of the Supreme Being for His mission to Earth. What can we, His Disciples and Devotees, give Him? In his own words, when people ask: "Swami, what can we do for You?" "When you meet me, you feel so much Love. The only thing you can do for me is to spread this Love!"

GURU’S  MANIFESTED  HOLY  ASH

An urn carries sacred ash of the Guru

Spun by his human hand,

Brought forth from the depths of his soul,

The essence of his Self,

No beginning–No Birthday–No end.

His devotees gather to partake

Of the Ash—the bounty of his wisdom.

The Guru’s Ash conveys the meaning

Of life, the everlasting Truth,

Which is this. . . . . . .

Love is All There Is—the Divine.

Fish do not know the wisdom

Of the Guru’s Ash—

That they are One with the All.

In total unawareness,

They don’t know that they are fish

Swimming through God.

Humans strive lifetime after lifetime,

Even a million or more,

To reach the truth that lies within

The wisdom of the Ash.

All material things, be it Guru’s body

Or the Ash of wisdom he conveys,

Eventually return to the eternal —

“Dust thou art, and to dust

Thou shalt return."

But the Truth of the Guru’s Ash

Stands as a sentinel of the Divine —

Like an urn full of water poured from the

Guru’s hand into the tranquil, celestial

Himalayan Lake Manasarovar,

Sending ripples of Love

To the shores of the Divine.

Swamini Vishwalakshmianandama 
Note: In the Hindu Tradition, Lake Manasarovar represents the human mind.

Lay Your Troubles at the Guru’s Feet

“Our mind is bound by the five gross attachments: ego, greed, lust, anger, and jealousy.”

Sri Swami Vishwananda

A small story about attachment to the ego and anger versus Love:

One day, a certain Guru was sitting by the sacred Ganges River in the Himalayas of India talking to his Disciple. The Guru asked his Disciple how he felt about a tragedy that had recently taken place in his life. The Disciple said, “I feel I have two tigers fighting in my heart. One tiger is a vengeful, angry, attacking one. The other tiger is a loving, compassionate one.” The Guru asked his Disciple, “Which tiger will win the fight in your heart?”

The Disciple answered wisely, “The one I feed.”

Swami Tells Story - Take this Needle to Paradise

Sri Swami Vishwananda at Darshan June 9 2012

Swami Vishwananda once told this story:

One day a great king, who used to take everything from people, even the poor, visited Guru Nanak. This Guru gave him a tiny needle and said, “My dear King, keep this needle with you and when you reach Paradise, you give this needle to me.” The king returned to his castle, so proudly, and said to the Queen, “You know I'll go to Heaven.’' Then the Queen said, “How?” The king replied: "It is Guru Nanak, who told me that I must give him this needle when I reach heaven!” The queen said, “But do you not know that when you die, you leave everything here? Go back and see him tomorrow and ask how you can give him the needle."

Early the next morning, the King went to the door of Guru Nanak and said, “Guru Nanakji, yesterday you gave me this beautiful little needle and you told me to give it to you when I reach heaven, but how can I take it there?” “Guru Nanak said, “I gave you something so tiny and asked you to bring it back to Paradise, and of course you cannot accomplish this. So, then how can you take all this wealth and all the things you have accumulated? All you can take are the good things you have done here. How much have you helped people? How much love have you given and how much have you opened your heart. These are the only things you take with you.”

It says in the Gita that you came with nothing and you will leave empty-handed. You only will take your Sadhana with you. Then work for it. And it's not for me to tell you, but it's up to you to do your best to open your heart. Try to love sincerely. Try to love with a pure mind and, then, slowly but surely that love will one day become unconditional. 

Attaining Your Master - Swami and Krishna

Choose your Master by feeling it in your heart. Recognize in Him the highest light, the Divine and the great values. Start your path to reach Him! Love unites everything. The Sun always gives without asking. The Earth gives everything without complaining. The Masters are all around; follow yours.

Sri Swami Vishwananda

Acquire knowledge from a Self-realized Master by humble reverence, by sin­cere inquiry, and by service. The empowered ones, who have realized the Truth, will teach you.”

Krishna, Bhagavad Gita 4.34  

The Great Master Lesson

“Make one step towards God, and he will make a hundred towards you.”
Sri Swami Vishwananda 

The Great Master Lesson

of Sri Swami Vishwananda

(Written into a poem with parts of the poem
 taken from a talk Swami gave at a Satsang – 
poetically speaking – when He ”put his hand in yours . . .
 once upon a time, with starlight shinning in His eyes)

Love is in the Heart, but
Humility is in the mind.
“Losing your mind” is sometimes
A very good thing to do, dear friend.
To make the mind humble, 
This ferocious, big beast which
Is apart from man,
While Love lives in his Heart,
We must remember we are
Masters of the mind and not vice versa!
So remind the mind continuously
That you are its Master
And this builds up humility,
A great stride forward 
On the spiritual path,
A quality that God loves, indeed!

Mahavatar Babaji roams the sacred

Himalayan Mountains
And truthfully all over this planet
And all dimensions beyond time and space.
A new epitaph, or legend, He has 
Created, not for Himself,
But for the understanding of
Of all mankind in this age of
The Internet of World design.
On His and Swami’s blog:
Virtual-Babaji-Vishwananda,
His books and other work,
He signs Himself as: Mahavatar Babaji,
Champion of the Whole Humanity. 

Sri Swami Vishwananda, humble though
He is indeed, contains in His soul
This same degree of Love-Light,
A Master of whom people say:
“Oh, He is very high, He comes
To serve you all the time,
Whether you are aware of it or not!”
This Master and all Masters come
Not for themselves, but for you;
They come to lift you up.

Mountains come and mountains go

As under the waters of Earth they
Hauntingly, relentlessly appear 
Then disappear as Earth change
After Earth change happens in time.
Like that, you come and go to
This Planet called Earth.

When winter winds blow

And snow fills the air, we say,
“We are chilled to the bone.”
Like that you must feel with all
The cells of your body, mind and soul
This Great Love like the saints of old.
Develop selfless Love, Unconditional Love

And Hu-mil-i-ty , so says the Master 
Sri Swami Vishwananda

Do not flagellate yourself every time 

You have a thought, but do the vice versa:
Flagellate the mind with the Divine Names.
Always remind yourself that God does everything
And it is He who is the cause of it all,
Even unto the “cause of you!”
He is always listening and from time to time
He will give you a sign in the outside
That He is listening always and forever.
Swami says:
"But don’t let pride rise inside you."
And so it is, dear friends!
