The Master Trickster, the Coyote and the Brokenhearted

By Santosha Tantra Yakataboof got up every day for the last week and noticed the scrawny looking coyote resting on the dirt behind a mesquite bush. He wondered why the coyote had settled into that spot not more than a hundred feet past his swelling. The coyote disappeared from that spot in the early morning and late evening to hunt, Yakataboof surmised. He saw him once lapping water up from one of his fountains and ponds and began leaving the...

Interview with Santosha Tantra: The Artist Persona

3/30/15 Part 1 – This interview was a beautiful revelation about Santosha Ma’s life and work.  Devotee:  This question is about Your doing art Your whole life, when You started doing art… Santosha Ma:    It wasn’t My whole life, I didn’t do it in My childhood. It was more the intensive time of the sadhana period.  There were different rhythms to it, but it started more there.  It started, not as something that the personality, Karen Karolczuk (her birth name)...

The Link and The Spark

By Santosha Tantra Freedom Rider was geared up with her hiking boots and sticks and a full tank of gas. Today was an ascension day—up the mountain road till it ended. As she ascended, Freedom Rider handled the mountain curves with a steady push—up 1,000 feet, to 8,000 feet above the valley floor. Freedom Rider always got her there. The mountain air was twenty degrees cooler than the valley, a fall nip in the air causing the aspens to turn...

The Feminists From Inner Space

By: Santosha Tantra They say that there is nothing more dangerous than an idea that has met its time. But there was a danger to the status quo that was more powerful than an idea that met its time, and that danger was the dream that has met the power of its transmission—and Ayra had that power and lived it—she walked it, and her transmission, her power to radiate unabashed joy produced a network, an eternal doorway of joy to...

Hanaû, the Monkey and the Truly Inspired

Part Four — The Link and the Spark Had Hanaû been changed by entering a vortex for the second time? When he had fully immersed himself into the vortex for the first time, he had lost his precious sense of a personal self and found out that having one was a joke. There was no such true thing or True person that was apart from the One Being that animated us all. He was still laughing from that first immersion....

Devotion to the Living Guru

Devotion to the Living Guru Spiritual devotion to God often gets a boring rap in our culture – I think that’s because the stereotypical images of devotion we see are of people sitting at Church, lacking enthusiasm, looking for the nearest exit in hopes that some event will cause the torture to end sooner than expected.  And spiritual devotion to a living Guru rarely gets talked about in the West. When it does, most find it abhorrent if someone admits...

Vulnerability is the Answer to Everything

7/22/2016 This is a Friday night with Santosha Ma, and She skipped meditation to talk with us about what was happening in Her circle of devotees at that time, and how to help each other in love. SANTOSHA MA:  It took a lot to convey that other people are suffering, and that in relationship, sometimes you are the cause of the suffering.  It has been hard for all of you to do that, to acknowledge that you might be the...

How I Came to Santosha Ma

I want to write about the life Given to me by Santosha Ma and Adi Da, lived in Her most wonderful Company since 1992.  Before that I had been in Adi Da’s community for 12 years, and I know in my heart that He sent me to Her to serve Her Work and Him here.   And She showed me from the first second of my seeing Her that She is God Incarnate, one with Him, Beloved Adi Da. How I...

Modern Day Ego Hype vs. Actual Experience

Eastern Sierras    July, 2008 Santosha Ma:  Anybody can like music, but that does not mean you are a musician.  You can talk about how much you like about music, and you can say, ‘I like that song,’ but it does not mean you have the experience of someone who has actually spent countless years and days learning something.  But in our culture, because we have affluence and we have access to almost anybody’s experience – people who have real experience...
