Divine friends welcome again to the Maha Shakti Temple for our 6 pm puja here in Skanda Vale.

It's a pleasure again to know that many of you are listening out there. And I would like to share a thought with you that came to my mind today. 

A lot of people are saying they are feeling disconnected from Devi, or they feel cut off from God. And I was thinking 'why is that?' And I have a little method to help you to connect.

You can connect through the elements. The elements are part of the Divine nature – that is water, fire, wind, earth...

Connect to the elements and you connect automatically to Devi. When you go out, when you do your daily lockdown 20-minute exercise, tap into the wind, or feel the rain, the water on your skin.

When you are in the garden, hold the soil in your hands, connect with the earth. Then you will connect with God. Feel the earth, pay attention to it – it has a beautiful smell. 

It's very simple. If you connect on such a simple level, a very down to earth way, you will see it will give you peace of mind and a connection to Devi. 

If you work from home, you can get very head-loaded, working on computers and phone. Then you need to go outside and ground yourself and make use of beautiful nature, the creation. 

This is Mother Earth. She is here for you. You can connect with a very simple method like that. 

So join us for this puja, then go for a walk afterwards : )
