Day 44: I learn about Lakshmi, Goddess of Unlimited Abundance

Last night, I renewed my energies by taking time out to hear my friend Sadie www.myspace.com/sadiejemmettmusic who is an excellent singer and guitarist. The evening was great and even though she was busy talking to her manager about a recording deal, I was happy that things were going well for her and delighted to hear five tracks I never heard her sing before.

The friend I went with is a poet and also a film maker, having made a documentary about her special experiences in India. Recently, she met the love of her life, so she is very happy and that was wonderful to hear. She said she prayed to an Indian Goddess and then it happened! She tells me if I pray to the Goddess Lakshmi (by downloading a picture from the net and praying to it whilst lighting incense) that she can help provide abundance. Lakshmi is the Goddess of material energy and unlimited abundance that is available for everyone; the fruits of the earth, she explains. I'm going to try and get that photo, because she seemed to manifest a man super quick with the help of the Goddesses so they must be worth a go!

After the gig, I went on to a club but it was a bit jarring so we all went home. On the nightbus, I finally read a few more pages of Dickens before a craving overtook me for a lamb kebab and I indulged before going back to bed. Tomorrow I may not have time for blogging as I am helping out at the jumble sale for my choir along with my great friend Ania.
