Now someone is getting ill, or say there is no Joy, we are all struggling in one way or another. Before 30 to 32 years ago, when our house was originally constructed, one of our family members happened to be in Pondicherry, and by the Grace of our Masters, the Ashram people were changing Sand of the Samadhi, and we got some Sand as a ‘Prasada’. We have put that Sand in the Base of the House and then constructed the house. Still, it is there, as we have not changed the flooring. I daily play the Organ Music of The Mother “Joy” for some Happiness and Joy. Dada, I know what is required is Inner Change, but the dullness is extreme. Please enlighten.
It does happen sometimes that the renovation of a house disturbs the old harmony, as invariably there are beings and forces that have taken shelter, which go away. However, this disturbance does not last long. A new harmony gets established sooner or later. There is also the factor of compactness and synergy among those who dwell in a smaller house. This too gets disturbed, especially if renovation leads to distancing among the family members. It will be helpful to have a common satsang kind of common activity once a week. You can also keep some camphor in all the corners of the house, with a prayer that Her Grace be there, as well as put a symbol of the Mother outside the door and in some prominent common place inside.
In any case better not to allow any formations in the mind that this is due to renovation. Any change creates a certain upsetting of the old harmony, but as the new harmony sets in, the difficulties pass away, and a new and happier rhythm comes in.
