We’ve done the really fun stuff. The really fun stuff is Tara, Vajra Yogini, these delightfully beautiful maidens and men that are so sublime. One of the problems of these loving practices is that we tend to want to say, “Okay, that’s heaven.” In other words, our fascination with elegant and sublime nobility makes us want to move towards that pleasure, but not accept pain. Or accept that change is there also. It doesn’t even have to be and we’ve talked about this in The Everyday Sanyasin course you don’t have to suffer with pain.
So what it really comes down to is, I’m going to project this idealistic, idyllic atmosphere in everything and that’s the ascended masters, that’s heaven, and that’s beyond the physical. And then there’s me, and I’m part physical, and I’m part in there, but all I really want to do is just die so I can be with the ascended masters.
That’s a very Christian point of view that is also embedded in Vedic practice. It’s embedded in Buddhist practice. It is, I think, an aspect of human psyche. This is really cool to realize, “Wow, it’s an aspect of human psyche.” With the Wrathful Deity practice, with a practice with an image that is change, that embodies change, I’m opening up to the ability to be creative with whatever happens.
Earlier, in the series on The Everyday Sanyasin, we talked about renunciation. We talked about the fact that the Everyday Sanyasin is accepting everything that happens as the Beginning Point of Creation. Every instant is Creation coming into being, and the Everyday Sanyasin is creating, as a Co-Creator, in that instant.
We went so far as to say that if you’re trying to deny what’s happening, then you can’t be creative with it, because you’ve denied. If I’m saying, “Well, I don’t see that over there, I don’t see the little green man over there sitting on the chair,” then first of all, I can’t get any wisdom from him. I can’t find out why he appeared. I can’t find out why he’s there. I can’t create with him. He can’t turn into a beautiful woman and dance with me.

The following is a true story about a young friend who lives in St. Louis.
Andy was born with a developmental disorder. The two sides of his brain were not joined normally with each other. The right side of his body could not communicate with the left. At age three, it was difficult for him to walk, speak, and play. He could only echo back a few words and walk slowly while someone held each of his hands.
Then came the struggles. He attended an all-day center where he was enrolled in every imaginable therapy. He struggled, sometimes in tears, to get stronger. Andy hated it when his parents would leave him there in the mornings. However, they believed against all odds that he would grow up to live a normal healthy life. They believed it for themselves, and for Andy.
It paid off. Today Andy is a successful 13-year old high school student. His progress has been nothing short of phenomenal. He receives special help with a few things, but he joins with his friends in all the activities he loves. Andy overcame enormous odds to move from adversity to victory.
Ask yourself: “What are the seeds of strength hidden in my struggles today? If I get back up when I fall, what will that make possible tomorrow?”
“Overnight success” is the result of years of tenacity and continued learning. Victory is possible for those who decide it’s their most compelling option. They’ll find the path to their dream. However, they will accept adversities as universities that will foster strength, growth, and skills to attract the victory they seek.
