Spiritual Exercise of the
Month:
Mahanta at the Door
‘The Mahanta at the Door’ during the day.
The energy you have put into this will carry
over and help you at night.
You are going to get very used to opening
the door and expecting to see someone that
you want to see standing there. This helps to
open the heart so that you can open the door
with love. Because unless you do, you will
never see the Inner Master. If you can open
the door with love, the Master will come to
you, because the Mahanta is always here.”
“Throughout the week, somebody is always
knocking on your door or ringing your
doorbell. Each time it happens, say to
yourself, ‘It will be the Mahanta, the Living
ECK Master.’ Be very aware of what you are
doing at that moment-where you walk, what
you touch, and what you see. When you open
the door, no matter who it is, be conscious —Harold Klemp
and aware of what the person looks like and The Spiritual Exercises of ECK, p. 273-274
what he or she is wearing.
Let’s say you’re in the kitchen washing
dishes when the doorbell rings. Observe your
movements. You reach for the towel, dry
your hands, walk to the door, and open it upand expect to see the Mahanta.
It might be the little child from next door,
Dallas ECKANKAR Center
but this is the ECK in expression at a certain
1200 East Jackson Road
level. It’s bringing something for you. In a
sense, each being on every plane is the
Carrollton, Texas 75006
Mahanta; and in some way the Mahanta is
expressing some degree of truth through
every person we meet.
When you go to bed that night, review any
experiences you had with visitors. Retrace
your steps from the moment you heard the
knock until the time you opened the door:
The person knocked several times; you
noticed this or that on the way to the door;
you knew it would be the Mahanta. Who did
you see when you opened the door? It was
the newsboy collecting for the paper.
Remember details;: What was he wearing?
What did he say? This is a spiritual exercise
that you can build into your daily life. Try

Conscious Experience
Officiator Tony Stone
Reading from the book by:
—Harold Klemp,
A Modern Prophet Answers Your Key Questions about Life, Book 2, p. 70
“Much of the experience of the people on the wheel of death and rebirth is unconscious
experience. So they run in a circle. The Spiritual Experiences of ECK, however, lead to
conscious experience. They go in the most direct way to Sugmad (God) to the Ocean of
Love and Mercy.”
February 8
Understanding the Law of Love
Reading from the book by:
—Harold Klemp,
Love, The Keystone of Life, p. 80
Officiator Ehiaguina Borha
“To get love, you must give love wherever and whenever you can, because that is the
law of love.”
February 15
Living Spiritually In Our Time
Reading from the book by:
The Language of Soul, p. 160
—Harold Klemp,
Officiator Alex Audu
“Whatever you do, wherever you walk, walk in the name of Divine Spirit. Walk in the
name of God.”
February 22
Community HU Chant Learn to Sing HU
Reading from the book by:
—Harold Klemp,
Wisdom of the Heart, Book 3, p. 186-187
Officiator Gayle Hargrove
“Whatever comes along in your life, it’s good to remember that it’s always a gift from
the Holy Spirit, to strengthen you. There will be days when you seriously wonder if you
can bear up to one more such gift, even one short hour more of purification. But you can.
It does take lots of love and trust, though. Above all, you know that life itself is a gift.
When you look around and can say, ‘I’m still here!’—then some of the old circumstances
that have sorely tried you will lift from your heart. Say thank you to the ECK for the
blessing.”

EVENTOS
El Ejercicio Espiritual del Mės
El Mahanta en la Puerta
“En la semana, siempre hay alguien que está
tocando o sonando el tiembre de tu puerta. Cada
vez que ésto sucede, pregúntate, “Será el
Mahanta, el Maestro Viviente de ECK”. Presta
atención a lo que estás haciendo en ese
momento, a lo que tocas y a lo que ves. Al abrir
la puerta, sin importar quien sea, presta atención
a su aspecto, y al atuendo que víste.
Vamos a suponer que cuando el timbre de la
puerta suena tú estás en la cocina fregando los
platos. Observa tus movimientos, tomas la
toalla, secas tus manos, te diriges a la puerta, la
abres y esperas ver al Mahanta.
Quizá sea el niño, vecinito del al lado, pero
realmente es el ECK en acción que de alguna
manera trae algo para tí. Hasta cierto punto,
cada ser de cada plano es el Mahanta; y de
alguna manera el Mahanta se comunica contigo
a través de cada persona con la que te
comunicas.
En la noche, cuando vayas a la cama, repasa

“Recuerda que cualquier cosa que venga a tu vida es un regalo del Espíritu Santo, para fortalecerte.
Habrá días cuando te preguntarás si puedes con tal regalo, e incluso con una hora más de purificación.
Pero si que puedes. Lo que hace falta es mucho amor y confiar. Pero sobre todo, saber que la vida mísma
es un regalo. Cuando miras a tu alrededor y dices todavía estoy aquí! – verás como algunas de esas viejas
situaciones que te han estado molestando se desvanecen de tu corazón. Da gracias al ECK por esa
bendición.”
