For Guru Purnima, the sacred Full Moon of teachers, I want to honor one of the most important teachers in my life: Usva.

Usva is a cat, a mother, a mystic, and a great Spirit Teacher. She came to live with us as a small kitten, at a time when Goddess Angali was strongly present within me. From that day until now, our spirits have remained deeply connected.

Usva has raised five litters with love and has taught me through her presence, her instincts, her silence, and her way of living.

She has taught me how to hunt, how to understand the language of cats, and how to become more cat-like in spirit so I can learn from the world in a different way.

Her kittens have also entered my inner world and revealed their true spirits to me. Through them, the stories and books of the Fable Woods Heroes were born.

The words for this song came one morning while the four kittens of The 4 Heroes of the Fable Woods Valley were playing around my legs. I listened, wrote the words down, and created the song To My Teacher Usva.

This special Guru Purnima podcast includes an introduction, the complete song, and a closing blessing.

Through Usva, I also honor my connection with Goddess Angali, Varahi, and Parvati, whose energies are strongly present in my daily life and spiritual growth.

May the energy of the Gurus bless me, Usva, and you who are listening.

Listen, receive, and celebrate the teachers who may come into your life through Divine beings, nature, animals, family, silence, and love.

Happy Guru Purnima!

Om Kleem Guravae Namaha Om Kleem Namah Shivaya
