Thoughts and reflections upon reading The Marketplace poems. 
 
The marketplace is both virtual and concrete, cheap and expensive, vast and deceptive.  The American shmorgasbord of New Age alternative solutions are also vieing for attention down the path...
Turning inward and away from seductions is a lonelier path that is more difficult, painful, and even frightening at times.  
"The drum of monotonous self-effort" can be most challenging... The poem offers me a much-needed optimistic perspective.
Thank you for the link.


Warmly,

Ushas Suktam
I have always been drawn on a deep level to Dawn.  Early morning is my favorite time of the day.  My soul seems most available, my thinking most pliable, my heart so naively tender.  Perhaps it is for me the moment of greatest optimism in anticipation of what is possible...an exciting connection to latent possibilities and potentialities.  I never understood these feelings that are consistently evoked at Dawn and that are not connected to any specific life events.  I only know that I feel them at this time of the day.  After reading these suktas for the first time, I realize that Dawn may be an important doorway for me in finding a purpose, a path, an entrance to Truth.  And that they will provide me with the support I need.

I never met you as in one on one training because i live in Newyork, but I had requested your guidance for Sri Suktam in Sanskrit . I personally don't know Sanskrit . I called you in desperate need because I was worried that if I pronounce a prayer in Sanskrit wrong , it would cause disastrous effects. You spent about 2hrs on phone with me for no charge.You took me word by word over the phone, how to pronounce as if you were right there with me. You made Sri suktam in Sanskrit so much easier to comprehend. I just wished you could have flewn by plane to NewYork had a class , so you can physically assist in person , because when I get some thing in Sanskrit translated by phone it is hard in terms to see my lips move to pronounce the words exact. Everything else within the 2hr over phone was perfect. There are other misleading and mispronunciation on other sites, which I like to stay away from , but you at Amba House Vasantiji are an asset of honesty, a real Teacher who leads people like us that don't know Sanskrit to light.

Always
Thank You ( words are not enough)
Sincerely in utmost respect

Wishing you a very happy, healthy and a holy new year.
 
Your classes have been very inspiring and motivating towards my spiritual journey. Studying and chanting Lalita Sahasranamam has given me a new understanding of the Devi Shakti. I have been able to connect to the female shakti with ease. Karma Yoga classes have motivated me to read and study the Bhagavat Gita. I have read the text in seven days (Saptaha). I am still studying the profound lessons it conveys and how to apply them in my daily life. Sri Suktam has become very personal and it is part of my daily sadhana.
 
Thank you so much, Vasanti, for offering these classes. I was fortunate enough to get a little introduction into the vast vedic and sanskrit knowledge. I will definately continue to attend your classes.

I consider myself very fortunate to have had the opportunity to be a student of Vasanthi Jayaswal over the past  six months. Vasanthi offered a set of classes I attended on Karma Yoga, Lalitha Sahasra Namas, Sri Suktam, Ratri Suktam and Ganga Stothram . I thoroughly enjoyed the classes and the knowledge that Vasanthi brings during the teachings and discussions.  Vasanthi is a great teacher, very patient, thorough and clear in presenting the spiritual discourses. I strongly believe that because of my Poorva Janma Sukrutha I found Vasanthi as my spiritual guide.
 
I aspire and look forward to continue to  learn more in the spiritual discourses that she has to offer in the future. I wholeheartedly recommend Vasanthi to anyone who has a desire to acquire spiritual knowledge via her teachings.

The classes  have been extremely good and informative. Personally it worked miracles on me . I followed all the instructions Vasantiji gave and that is why Shree Suktam worked for  me.

I am a devotee of Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba since childhood. I was also a student of Bal Vikas, the children spiritual education component of the organization. So far I have attended the Karma Yoga, Sri Suktam,Lalitha Sahasranama, Ganga Stotram and part of Ushas Suktam classes in Santa Rosa. I am also reading the interpretation of Sri Rudram on line. I have been benifitted a lot by your classes. They have motivated me to read more and contemplate more on spiritual knowledge and spirituality.Sri Suktam has become a part of my daily worship and Ganga Mantram is helping me to stay calm and composed during most part of the day.Recently on 11/8 and 11/9 we had Glaobal Akhand Bhajan an annual feature of the Sai Organization where devotional songs are offered to the Almighty from 6:00 pm 11/8 to 6:00 pm 11/9. It is customary to sing suprabhatam in the morning at 5.30 am. As we were all participating in the devotional singing through out the night, we purified oursleves by chanting the Ganga Mantram before suprabhatam. The chanting was very powerful and was appreciated by all those that were present.
The interactive sessions we have during our classes have clarified many doubts and have made many concepts crystal clear. The joy I am experiencing by chanting Sri Suktam after learning the meaning is so different from the experience before. Karma Yoga classes have motivated me read the Gita in greater depth.
It is good to have a break now because I am using this time to further deepen my understanding of the concepts that you have introduced me to, for example Saksi site has so much to offer on the vedas.
I thank the divine in you for offering your valuable services and time free of cost for the welfare of the Santa Rosa community.

I was fortunate enough to attend classes taught in person by Srimati Vasanti Jayaswal. We started by learning not only the meaning of Lalita Sahasranama but also the way it should be chanted . We progressed to Sri suktam which was so much more complex yet so appealing ,ancient wisdom yet pertinent today. I also did a course in Karma Yoga.It was an excellent introduction to how to blend spirituality in daily living based on Bhagavat Gita. The course format involved some written assignments which really helped me think things through.We went  on to study Ganga Strotam which I love chanting. Raatri stotram was next.  I am  currently studying Tara .
My life has changed tremendously. I like the simple approach to these very complex ideas which has made me discover a whole new way of looking at Sanatana Dharma, beyond meaningless chanting and ritualism. There is a universal appeal to the lessons which transcend religion ,race ,language and geography. I feel I am on a journey to discover and get closer to the truth whatever it is.
I am one of the few lucky ones who learned to chant Lalita Sahsranama set to Yaman Kalyan which makes it even more beautiful.
Vasantiji has done so much and expects nothing in return. I am amazed at her vast knowledge and attention to details. I hope she continues to be generous and share .I want more !

I am extremely encouraged by your blessings and well wishes. I am very happy to undergo the course and I find it more and more revealing and giving joy again and again.

Before studying these lessons I thought that the Lalita sahasranama was just the 1000 names of Srilalita . I now realize the great philosophy behind it. It is a great opportunity for us to learn this beautiful sahasranama.


Shankari S.K.

The difference between yaga and yagna, concept of chakra and how it works, different meanings for the word Tripura, how the body can be used as a kshetra, sound and its relationship, hoew Shakti and shiva becomes one and the same.... many more concepts were new to me.

The exercise of having studied the indepth meaning of the individual names of the devi and her attributes has completely altered my hitherto casual manner of reciting the shlokas.


Jeyarani N.
USA

 
 
 

Before studying this I thought it was just a description of Her 1000 names from the puranas. After studying these lessons, the deeper meanings of these names became clear to me, such as the Universal Principle, using our body as a tool to realise the divine in us... how one should become antarmukha and how we relate to the outside world.

Thank you very much for your kind service in facilitating the learning of this ancient wisdom. In these times we must ardently hope that more will become engaged in such learning so that cumulative efficacy may ensue for the benefit of all.

The questions posed are challenging and inspiring. They provoke the student to repeatedly revise the subject matter. Given the complexity of the material to be covered, the format developed appears suitable for all levels of students.


Padmaraja C.

Understanding different types of worship, acceptance and appreciation of the world as Her, glimpses into various concepts such as Vimarsha- Prakasha, Suddha vidya, concepts of Chakra, to undertake everything as offering to Her with her blessing and presence, the need for Kama and its place in  life and the World, being happy with Her creation... all these I learned and more

Thank you for the wonderful study of the Hreem mantra. I am fascinated by the length and breadth of this mantra which was given in initiation by my revered Guruji 13 years ago. It is with great joy that I anticipate my continued studies with you.

Yours is indeed the most beautiful interpretation one can conceive  of the Purusha suktam. Thanks a lot. Your explanation took me to a newer and higher dimension. My salutation to your broad mind, and to AMBA HOUSE. What you are doing is indeed Narayana seva.
