Advice about Chakras CKP Hall, Mumbai (India)

Author2 Comments

Advice about Chakras. Mumbai (India), 30 December 1979. It is said that God is love. We have heard that many a times, and many people have explained in their own ways what is love. But to feel that love is the best way of understanding it. Even if you explain or describe in all details, though it is described in all details, you cannot enjoy love without experiencing it. This experience comes to us because God, Himself, has placed within us the mechanism to absorb this love and to manifest it. It is a very delicate mechanism within us, extremely delicate. This mechanism is placed in our heart, and by our ignorance, so many times, we spoil this mechanism or disturb it, or sometimes even completely destroy it. The light of love is joy. Anything else cannot give you joy. It’s only the love that you feel in your heart gives you joy. This mechanism acts in seven layers within us. In the periphery of these seven layers, we have got ripples of this joy arising; they come to the shores of our brain and create the bubbles of joy. But again if the brain is a very rational rock then these bubbles dissolve, giving no effect to the rock. So a loving person is thousand times better than a rational person. But most of the people feel this love only on the periphery of the outermost layer, which is the light of the Mooladhara. As you know that Mooladhara Read More …

Christmas And Its Relationship To Lord Jesus Caxton Hall, London (England)

Christmas And Its Relationship To Lord Jesus, Caxton Hall, LONDON (UK), 10 December 1979. …this day for us to remember that Christ was born on this earth. As a human being, He came on this earth. And the task that was before Him was to enlighten human awareness with the sense of understanding, but we can say it is actualization, within the awareness of human beings, that they are not this body but they are the spirit. The message of Christ is His resurrection. That is you are your spirit an’ not your body. And He showed by His resurrection, how He ascended into the realm of spirit – which He was, because He was Pranava, He was Brahma, He was Mahavishnu – as I have told you about His birth. And when He came on this earth, in a body, like a human being, He wanted to show another thing that spirit has nothing to do with money, has nothing to do with power. It is all powerful, all pervading, but He’s born in a stable, not in a palace or to a king but He was born to a very ordinary person, a carpenter. Because if you are the king, as we say in Hindi language, Badshah then nothing is greater than you, isn’t it? It means simply that. Nothing is higher than you, neither anything can decorate you, because whatever you are, you are at the highest. All the worldly things so called, are just like dry Read More …

Realisation is not of the Intellect Caxton Hall, London (England)

Author1 Comment

“Realisation is not of the Intellect”, Public Programme. Caxton Hall, London, England. 3 December 1979. Thanks for the nice talk he gave. And also I thank all of you for coming down here. In his frantic effort of explaining to you that you have to get something here, is the expression of his own experiences about himself. He had problems of the same style as you had. And he knows that if you go on analysing things with your brain and with your intellect then you are going to delay. And because he knows what mistakes one may commit, and he has also seen so many doing that, that’s why he’s trying to tell you that, “At least if we have committed mistakes you be cautioned and you learn from our mistakes and try to come up fast and listen to it and take it.” Now the seekers are there, as you know, but, as he says, they have labelled themselves as seekers: “We are seekers”. And they are so proud of seeking, that he himself has told me, that now they do not want to give up seeking even if they find it. It’s a very funny situation and I said, “Why is it so, that?” He says “No, you form a sort of a habit. Then you don’t want to give up the habit because you’ll go into sort of a funny situation if you give up the habit. And that’s why they just want to continue with Read More …

Havan after Guru Puja with 115 Names of the Sat Guru London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

115 Names of the Sat Guru  Translated by Shri Mataji, on the 2nd December 1979, on the occasion of Guru Puja, where Shri Mataji declared that She is the Adi Shakti. These beautiful names, which were translated by Shri Mataji Herself, have unfortunately been altered and modified over the years. Previously known as the 113 names, two names were missed out. Now, as best as could possibly be done, the Sanskrit names have been corrected to how they were originally said on the day and Shri Mataji’s translation transcribed, to as close as possible to Her original translation. 1 Bhavaya…………………………………………He is the emotions 2 Sattvatmane…………………Whose atma has expressed the truth 3 Sattvasagaraya…………………………Who is the ocean of truth 4 Sattvavidhe…………………………..Who knows the pure vidya 5 Sattvasakshine……………….He is the one who sees the essence 6 Sattvasatyaya………………………Who meditates on the essences 7 Amaradhipaya………………………………..He is the eternal lord 8 Bhutakrute……………………He is the one who creates the past 9 Bhutaprete…………………………………He is the killer of the past 10 Bhutatmane…………………………He is the essence of the past 11 Bhutasambhavaya……………………Who incarnates as the past 12 Bhutabhavaya………He is the emotions of all that is so far created 13 Bhavaya…………………………………..……..He is the emotions 14 Bhutavide…………Who is an expert in all the vidyas that have been so far  15 Bhutakaranaya……………He is the cause of all that is created 16 Bhutasakshine……………………He is the witness of all that is created 17 Prabhutaye………He is the one who enlightens all that is created 18 Bhutanangparamagataye………………..The one who takes all that is created beyond 19 Bhutasangavidhatmane……….The one Read More …

Guru Puja: The Declaration of Shri Mataji London (England)

Author1 Comment

Guru Puja, “The Declaration of Shri Mataji”. Dollis Hill ashram, London, England. 2 December 1979. A month back, I told Rustom that, “You must have a puja arranged, this Sunday. It’s a full moon day”. And he asked Me, “What should you call it? Is it a Guru Puja? Or is it a Puja for Mahalakshmi, or Ganesha’s Puja?” So, I told him, “Call it a Guru Puja”. And he asked Me later on, much later, when I was going to India, that, “Why not also have the Christmas Puja over here?” Today is a very, important day. Because, long time back, when Christ was just a child, He read from the Scriptures, and declared to the multitudes, that He was the Advent – the incarnation, who is the Savior. They believed that a Savior is going to come. Today, long time back, on a Sunday, He said, He declared that He was the Savior. That’s why today is the Advent Sunday. He had to live for a very, very short time. So, at a very young age He had to declare that He was the Advent. Now it is remarkable to see, that before this, no incarnation said publicly, that, they were incarnations. Rama of course, had forgotten that He was an incarnation. In a way, He made Himself to forget, played His maya upon Himself to become a complete human being – Maryada Purushottama. And Shri Krishna also only told, one person Arjuna, just before he was to Read More …

How to get to the Spirit that lies within Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

Public Program. Caxton Hall, London, England. 26 November 1979. …and how it resides within us and how we are lost in the curtains of Maya. Today I am going to tell you how we get to that Spirit. There are two types of methods people employ in finding out that Spirit. One is called as anuvopai, and another one is called as shaktopai. ‘Anu’ means a molecule. When we are lost in the Maya, as I had told you last time, actually the Spirit is eternal, It is all-powerful. It never loses Its power whether we are old, young, whatever condition we may be, the Spirit has Its own power, all the time. But, the reflection of the Spirit in us, the light of the Spirit in us, depends on the quality of our reflector, how we are. And because of the quality being so poor sometimes, darkness is created within us and in that darkness, we do not know sometimes, even to that extent, that there is something beyond. So the first style of seeking is anuvopai as you call it, which is depending on separating molecules after molecules. Because under these circumstances, when you are surrounded by darkness, you see Spirit just as a molecule or you can say a spark or a flicker. Sometimes you just get a flicker of it. As you know the thoughts arise within us and fade away. We see the thoughts rising and fading away. And there are many thoughts all around Read More …

Seeking in The West Caxton Hall, London (England)

“Seeking in The West”, Public program, Caxton Hall, London, England. 21 November 1979. I’m really thankful to Gavin, the way he has explained to you. His method is very meditative by which he permeates. I think he articulates better for the understanding of the Western mind. Now, I have been here in this country for so many years, and I have been working on Western people, and what I find is that there is a great seeking, no doubt. People are not satisfied with their life, with their mundane life. They think it is very routinous, they are bored, they think something has to happen. Then there are some people who think that if these great books of scriptures have described that there is something Divine, there is something higher, and there is something like what we call the All-pervading Power which is ruling this universe, and if one has to enter into the Kingdom of God, then there must be some way out, and we must find it. From inside, they don’t feel happy about themselves. They’re insecure, because they think they haven’t got what they have been seeking. So there are markets open for such things, and when the demand comes in there is a supply from everywhere. Also from our great country that is India, we have supply of people coming down. Today I was talking to the people who have advertised and this and that, and they said that the market people have used all these Read More …

How to go beyond the ego and know yourself, Meditation London (England)

How to go beyond the ego and know yourself, Meditation Advice at Dollis Hill ashram, London (UK), 18 November 1979. But Sahaja Yoga is that triggering great happening by which the creation of God is going to get its fulfilment and is going to know its meaning – it is that great! Perhaps we do not realise it. But when we say, “We are Sahaja Yogis,” you have to know that, to be a Sahaja Yogi, how much identified you should be with the Truth of Sahaja Yoga, and so many misidentifications which are hanging on to you must be get rid of. People call it a sacrifice. I do not think it is a sacrifice. If you think something is hampering your way you’ll try to take out that hurdle. In the same way, if you stand out from your obstructions, you will be able to understand that these obstructions are standing in your way and they are not your own and that they are stopping your progress. So, you should get this misidentification out of your minds completely and try to be more and more your Self and not a misidentification. This is one the problems, I think, people have here. Whenever I get any complaints or anything, I understand that still the level of understanding about Sahaja Yoga is not up to that point. It is a tremendous task! And for that, if you are the people who have to come up and if you are the Read More …

The Significance of Brighton Brighton (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

Public Program, “The Significance of Brighton”. Brighton (UK), 15 November 1979. The name itself is so beautiful – Brighton. It has to brighten the whole country. I have been here twice before also, and I always felt that if a chance is given to Me in this place, we can really start Sahaja Yoga in a big way and can one day this become a pilgrimage. There are mixed vibrations in Brighton. You have the sea. Also, the mother earth here has a special significance, but when something Divine starts emitting itself, the evil comes in a disguise and accumulates in that place, and starts fighting, fighting the Divine, and that’s how it’s a very mixed vibrations I felt in Brighton. But on the whole it is a very good place where Sahaja Yoga can prosper. They must have told you about Sahaja Yoga. ‘Saha’ is ‘with’, ‘ja’ is ‘born with you’. This is the Yoga, this is the Union that you are seeking with the Divine, is born with you. It is within you. Everybody has said, “You seek Him within yourself [your Self]”. Even Christ said, “You seek Him within yourself,” that means you have to seek, it is your freedom which cannot be challenged. You have to ask for it. For example, if God could at this stage of human awareness transform you to higher awareness without you coming into that play, your freedom coming into that play, He would have done it long time back. But Read More …

The Meaning of Yoga London (England)

Lecture “The Meaning of Yoga”. Dollis Hill Ashram, London (UK), 11 November 1979. From this wheat, a germ is born. That’s something that is born with you, that is innately built in you, which sprouts by itself in you, which manifests itself. Like you can see a seed sprouting into a tree, this is what is “sahaja”. Now all other yogas which go along with it, are part and parcel of Sahaja Yoga. They cannot be separated from this to that. I think people are under a misunderstanding that there are four limbs of one Yoga or something like that. Even that won’t be a misunderstanding as to think that they are separated or different.When we say that we have eaten this food, it doesn’t mean like a bolt it has gone inside, in the body, and just passed out of the body like a bolt coming out, does it? It means that you have tasted the food in your mouth. It means that it has secreted some saliva in the mouth, later on in the lip. It has passed through the trachea and the other places like, you can call, what is it?Sahaja Yogi: Oesophagus.Shri Mataji: Oesophagus, going down into the stomach part and then to the intestines and then to the larger intestines.

Knowledge of the Divine Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

“Knowledge of the Divine,” Public Programme, Caxton Hall, London (UK), 28 October 1979. Every time I face the new people, I have to give an introductory talk and Sahaj Yogis get sometimes impatient about it. But we have to understand that this is the knowledge of the Divine and those who have not known about it are to be told. And those who have known should know that there are many things they have not known, which they have to know. Still there is a lot to be known. Supposing I tell you all about it and you do not get your Realisation, you do not get your yoga, you do not get your connection with the Divine then it is useless. Talk will remain talk. You may verify it; you may find it the same written in many scriptures. Many saints have told you the same thing [but] it has no use. The knowledge, gyana, is useless without yoga, without the union with the Divine. When you get the yoga, also, when you are realised, you get your Realisation, and I do not give you the knowledge, then your Realisation is also useless. I have seen in this great country many realised-souls are born. They live as realised-souls, they don’t know what are they; they act as spiritualists, they call themselves, whatever people call them. But they are not aware that they are realised-souls! They commit mistakes, they go onto wrong paths, get confused about their Realisation. So, it is Read More …

“The Problem of Ego,” Caxton Hall, London (UK) – 22 October 1979. From next time I’ll start the series because those who are not here, I mean, sort of lots of people will be coming when you will be advertising. Cooly (Tony Paniotou) did you advertise for today or for next time? He’s also not here? Not yet, so we’ll start it from next time, the series, like that. Would be better for people to follow.  Those who have come for the first time should sit in front, is better. You see, I can look after you better. All right? Just put your hands like this. Today I was thinking of telling you about the ego problem, because I think everybody feels that that’s the biggest problem they all have; and there’s a big ego trip one gets into, and they don’t know what to do with it. So first part I will tell you how the ego rises and what it does to us and the second how to understand it, how to tackle the position of ego and put it in its own aspect. As you see in the map here, the yellow stuff that you see on top is the ego. The balloon that is yellow is the ego. You see down below it starts from the Swadishthana. This is the colour of the bile within us. And this Swadishthana Chakra which is for our creativity is directly connected to that ego there. And when it starts rotating Read More …

And He was created specially for this purpose, to kill Narakasura. Then the – this one was, this rakshasa, was such a menace and he had ruined so many people’s lives. He has done such a havoc and people didn’t know how to find protection. That time, when Narakasura was killed by the Shakti in the form of Shadanana, Kartikeya, there was celebration all over. People celebrated the next night and the next night was the darkest night of the whole year, is tonight. The 15th day of the waning moon is called as amavasya [new moon]. So this is the darkest night. There are always dark nights every month once, but this is the darkest night of the whole year and just before this Narakasura was killed. And all the lights are put in the house and lots of these lamps are burnt. Of course electricity lights are different from these, as you know, that they burn badhas all the time. So, after the death of Narakasura, he had a big army of his own when he was very powerful and he had hypnotized many people, so to get rid of the residual ones altogether, they lighted all these lamps, so that all those Read More …

Getting To Know Yourself Harrow, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

Public program. Gayton Road, Harrow (near London), England. 19 October 1979. Today we have gathered here to know something about ourselves and not about others. We know that we are human beings and that God has created us from a small little amoeba to this complicated structure called as human being. But does He have any plan behind it? Why did He make us a human being, which is such a beautiful thing according to Me? What was His purpose in creating us? Have we reached that point to understand what is the purpose behind our creation? And that is why it is necessary sometimes one has to reach that stage to know what you are. Are you only your body, your mind, your intelligence, your ego, your superego, or there is something beyond within you? Is there any undercurrent, which works out the whole creation and you? Have you got any role to play in the whole plan of God Almighty? If so, what is the role and where do you stand in relation to Him? If I have to say that there is a great meaning in your creation of your own being and that you do not know your value, you are not to just believe Me, neither to deny Me, but keep a open mind of a scientist. Like a hypothesis if I put something before you, you have to just see for yourself it works out or not. Now within us there is an instrument, Read More …

How realisation should be allowed to develop Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

How Realisation should be allowed to develop, Public Program. Caxton Hall, London, England. 15 October 1979. Most of you are Sahaj Yogis here. Now those who have got Realisation, those who have felt the vibrations, must know that they are now developing into another being. The germination has started, and you must allow the germination to work out its own way. But normally, when we get Realisation also, we do not realise that it is a tremendous thing that has happened within us. That this triggering, which is an impossibility, has taken place within us, and it has to work out slowly. It has to develop, and evolve us into that, and because we do not feel it, we do not take it that seriously as we should, our Realisation. Moreover, they are surrounded by people who have not felt the vibrations, they do not know this area; they have never seen it. As Guru Nanak has called it, it is alakshya (आलक्ष्य: unobservable). They have not seen it, they don’t know about it, they don’t know there is a power of God that exists, which understands, coordinates, cooperates with you, which is working in the collective being, which makes aware, you aware of that collective being and of others also. This alakshya, or we can call it paroksha (परोक्ष:invisible), which is not seen by any one, which no one knows about, they talk about it. They talk about the Kingdom of God, they talk about God’s Powers, Divine Power. Read More …

First western seminar: “How to handle scientists. Our powers”. Easthampstead Park, London (UK), 14 October 1979. The thing that you are doing…you do not know. It will be something like the lights which are burning in the dense forest to guide thousands of lights. They are not aware of it. It’s a tremendous task and when you have such a big load on your mind how can you sleep? You are carrying their loads also. We’ll be sleeping very well but first we must know we have a very big load. Just think of the people who are still nowhere near Sahaja yoga. And still are committing mistakes after mistakes. When are they going to come around? Only through your channels I can clear them because as far as I am concerned I am absolutely useless for anyone of them. Only through your channels I can work it out. It’s like a tin opener you know. We don’t have a tin opener you may be a Hercules you cannot open a tin. It’s something like that. I’ll expect you all are like tin openers for Me. (Laughter in background) Very important, that I have to have you, very handy to work it out. It’s only you can do it. I cannot do it. Moreover My mood is such a horrid stuff that it recedes back.

It’s just for recording. Shri Mataji: Oh, it is not a loudspeaker. Sahaja Yogi: It’s just a tape. Shri Mataji: Oh, I see …and, he had started, you see, doing some sort of tricks which I did feel about him that he had started doing some tricks about his Realisation. Because that’s the only thing one has to be very careful that one can get into. And he had gathered spirits, because he got interested in curing too much. I told him not to cure anymore. I said you can give my photograph, but don’t get into curing part, because if you get the spirits you wouldn’t even know and you will be insensitive to it and then you will have problems. And then he had such funny spirits in him that, those people who came to him, were influenced to give him money by those spirits. And some people were compelled, I mean they couldn’t help it. The only idea that worked into their heads was that they must give money to him! But this was nothing, he started showing my photograph in the eyes and a photograph of Sai Baba in the eyes and all sorts of nonsensical things. Shri Mataji: Hello. How are you?

9th Day of Navaratri Celebrations, Eve of Navaratr, Puja & Havan Mumbai (India)

9th Day of Navaratri …..made Her bhaktas secure. This huge task took place in an age when the bhaktas were troubled by evil rakshasas and instruments of the devil. Even nowadays.there is no scarcity of devilish people in the world, and the world is enveloped by their demonic thoughts and actions. And that is why humans are trying very hard to come out of it  In this Navratri so many people have got their realization And by receiving this Self Knowledge, they have been able to get rid of all the problems caused due to demonic dominance.  But the biggest thing is that you have become enlightened in Sahaja Yoga And even I never thought that so many people would get their enlightenment.The fact that so many people have got their realization in such a short time has been a milestone And when we look at this milestone we feel that a lot can be accomplished within the year . I’m saying this to you today because you are now Sahaja Yogi’s which means you are not ordinary people; you have got that yoga now, you cannot be yoga bhrashta (realisation is corrupted) and you should move according to this Yoga. It means, if you have a few habits, and you assert your willpower a little bit, I will give you the Shakti to overcome these bad habits. Speaking too much or too  little that is not good. in everything you have to be in the center (balance). don’t go Read More …

Shri Mataji: Shri Vijay Merchant, Mr. Rakure, all the Sahaja Yogis who have come here to express their love for Me and all the rest of the people who are in the search of truth. It was really a very gracious of Shri Merchant to come and inaugurate this book. I have been from My childhood watching his cricket. I must say I’m quite a big cricket fan Myself. I think cricket is the game which is really Sahaja, between one extreme of football and another boring game of golf. And I always have been appreciating the way he has been managing our teams and has been such a good captain to our country and I’ve been admiring him, the way he has been able to handle the glory in the field of cricket. Even after that, instead of wasting his life like all other successful people of this life in retirement, he’s doing such a great work, and such a feeling he has for all the downtrodden and the poor people of this country shows that he is a very sensitive personality. I’m very thankful to him the way he is being kind to all of us and have been here and spoke to us about his own work. I agree with him entirely that the downtrodden or the ones who are not so well off as we are or, we can say, the one who is not such Read More …

7th Day of Navaratri Celebrations, Kundalini and Kalki Shakti Mumbai (India)

AuthorLeave a comment

7th Day of Navaratri Celebrations, “Kundalini and Kalki Shakti” Mumbai (India), 28 September 1979 Today I am going to address you in English language, as desired by you. Even tomorrow perhaps we may have to use this foreign language. Today’s subject is the relationship between Kundalini and Kalki. The word kalki actually is an abbreviation of the word nishkalanka. Nishkalanka means the same as My name is, which means nirmala — that it is a spotlessly clean thing. Something that is spotlessly clean is nishkalanka, without any spots on it. Now, this incarnation has been described in many Puranas: He will be coming on this Earth on a white horse, in a village of Sambalpur, they call it, Sambhalpur. Is very interesting how people take everything so literally. The word sambhala means: bhala is this forehead, sambhala means “at that stage”. That means Kalki is situated on your bhala. Bhala is the forehead, and here He is going to be born. That is the real meaning of the word Sambhalpur. In between Jesus Christ and His destroying incarnation of Mahavishnu, called as Kalki, there is a time given to human beings to rectify themselves, for them to enter into the Kingdom of God. Which in the Bible is called as Last Judgement — that you will be judged, all of you will be judged on this Earth. The population of the world is the maximum, they say, because all those, practically all those who had aspirations to enter into the Read More …

6th Day of Navaratri Celebrations, Shri Kundalini, Shakti and Shri Jesus Hinduja Auditorium, Mumbai (India)

Author3 Comments

Advice (Hindi) “Shri Kundalini Shakti and Shri Jesus Christ”. Hinduja Auditorium, Bombay (India), 27 September 1979. The subject “Shri Kundalini Shakti and Shri Jesus Christ” is very attractive and interesting. It is altogether a new subject for the common people because nobody has at any time before, attempted to establish any connection between Jesus Christ and Shri Kundalini Shakti. On the Virata tree of religion, saints of various kinds bloomed as flowers in many countries and languages. It is only the Virata who can know the relation inter-se amongst these beautiful flowers. Wherever they went, these flowers spread the sweet fragrance of religion. But even the people surrounding these saints could not grasp the significance of that fragrance. It is therefore, futile to expect the common people to understand the relation inter-se between a saint and the Adi-Shakti, the primordial Mother. You would be able to experience or understand my view-point if you could attain the plane from which I am talking to you. Because at present, you do not have the necessary equipment to comprehend whether or not what I am telling you is the truth. In other words, you are not yet equipped to understand what the truth is. Until you are able to understand the meaning of the Self, the physical body would remain imperfect and would be unable to verify the truth. But once the physical instrument is connected with truth, you are able to verify the Truth. It follows therefore, that first you have to Read More …

5th Day of Navaratri Celebrations, Guru Tattwa (Mahima) and Shri Krishna Mumbai (India)

Author1 Comment

5th Day Of Navaratri Celebrations, Guru Tattwa (Mahima) And Shri Krishna, 1979-09-26 [Hindi to English translation] The place of the guru is a very high place within us. The place of the guru is situated within us; there is nothing new to do in it. The instruments that the divine has created, this instrument has been made with great beauty. Each of its Chakras, which are invisible to us and are within us, through which this universe is beautifully created; but man lives in excess, always going to extremes, he has spoiled his own instrument. Similarly, the place of the guru has also been spoiled by man. The place of the guru is within us, in this France, in this entire country. It is connected to the four sides of the navel chakra inside the stomach. Three days ago, I spoke to you about the navel chakra. The place of Lord Vishnu is on this navel chakra. It is due to the power of Vishnu Shakti that humans evolved from amoebas to humans. And it is through that same power that you are becoming super humans from humans. Now, the power of the guru that is already developed within us by the divine, many gurus have descended before for this purpose. Now, first, let’s see how this guru principle is formed, for this, we should understand that the guru principle is beginning less and how it was created. Within us, three powers operate invisibly. The first power is what we Read More …

1st Day of Navaratri Celebrations, Shri Kundalini, Shri Ganesha 22-09-1979 [English Translation from Marathi] On today’s auspicious occasion, in a pleasant environment, such a beautiful subject – seems that many coincidences have come together. Till date nobody suggested me to speak on the subject of worship but it is so important. Especially in this land of Yoga (Yogabhumi), in our land of Bharat (India), especially in this holy land of Maharashtra, the Goddess of nature has come up with the creation of Ashtavinayakas, so what is the greatness of Ganesha, what is the importance of Ashtavinayakas etc is not known to many people. I am very surprised at this. Perhaps the people who understood everything, who knew everything – those great ascetics and saints of our holy land – they must not have been given the liberty to express, or may be nobody listened to them. Any amount of explanation about this will be inadequate and even seven lectures instead of one would be insufficient for me to speak about Shri Ganesha. Today’s auspicious day is that of ‘Ghata Pujan’.  Ghatasthapna is primordial. When this universe was created, many times. The universe has not been created only once but many times. When this universe was created, first they installed the Ghata (container). What do you mean by Ghata? One needs to understand this very deeply. Firstly, the Almighty resides in the state of Bramhatatva,(universal element or principle). We will call it entropy in English.   When there is no movement Read More …

Atma and Paramatma New Delhi (India)

AuthorLeave a comment

“Atma and Paramatma”, translation of Hindi Lecture. Delhi (India), 18 August 1979. The sudden arrival is for various reasons. In Sahaja Yoga sudden arrival has a special significance.We must have seen many incidents in our lives, which have suddenly happened. They do not mean anything to us. If we try on intellectual level, we cannot understand why a particular incident has taken place in our life. It has been the way of human being, that he wants to understand everything through reasoning. This is correct on his part because his awareness is not yet awakened. When his awareness is limited and when he is searching the proof of everything through his intellect it is difficult for him to adopt some other means which are outside the scope of reasoning. You have heard a lot about Paramatma, Atma, Adi-shakti etc. You have also read about them in books. Every now and then, man talks about Atma and Paramatma. There have been many incarnations, who have told that you should first realise your Atma because man cannot reach Paramatma, without knowing his Atma. As you cannot identify colours without eyes in the same way, you cannot attain Paramatma unless you meet your Atma. You cannot intellectually understand Paramatma. It is only through Atma that you can understand Paramatma. So far, all saints have said “be alert in the observance of your Dharma, search your Atma, understand the Atma that is residing in you.” What is Atma? What work is it doing residing within Read More …

Self-realisation and fulfilment Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

“Self-realisation and fulfilment”, Public Programme. Caxton Hall, London, England. 6 August 1979. So much, already, has been said about Sahaja Yoga. As I have told you before, for new people I would like to say that, ‘saha’ means ‘with’, ‘ja’ means ‘born’. It is born with you. It is with you. The germinating power which is going to connect you with the Divine is born with you. As you have a nose, eyes and face, in this body, in the same way this germinating power is within you, has been there for ages. In all your seekings it has been with you, and now the time has come – the blossom time has come, you can say – that people have to receive their connection with the Divine, otherwise the Divine will lose its own meaning. Unless and until you have your own meaning, unless and until you have your own fulfilment, your Creator, who has created you, is not going to get His own fulfilment. That’s why this grace, this special gift to the modern people, that you can really get your Self-realisation. But as Regis has pointed out very rightly, we have all the instruments very nicely placed within us, but since we are born we are attracted all the time by people who come forward with theories that they can introduce you to Divine. Or sometimes you feel that you can find it out. Sometimes we waste our time in very shallow life, all the time destroying Read More …

Modern Seeking, In Search of Joy Enfield Grammar School for Girls, Enfield (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

Public program. Enfield, England. 26 July 1979. It is really very fortunate that I could come to this place, as it was arranged by My first Sahaja Yogi, I feel very proud to be here. There are so many others who live in this area but so far they have never arranged a program in this area, though they belong to this place. And there must be something in this area, that so many of them are already there. Today, in these modern times, we are standing at a very precarious position. On one side we find our material affluence has not rendered us any help as far as the Joy of the Spirit is concerned. We have achieved no joyful state by achieving all kinds of scientific discoveries, and the so-called flights of our scientific mind. In a way it is nice that we have started realizing that it is not this matter, which is going to give us joy. It is a simple thing one has to understand, that matter can never give us joy but can only give us domination; it can dominate us, can enslave us. For example, if you make a chair out of the wood, then you cannot sit on the ground; and if you get a very comfortable sofa set made for yourself, then you find it hard to sit on a chair made out of wood, so that you cannot live without the habit that is formed within us due to the Read More …

We have to seek our wholesomeness Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

Public program “We have to seek our wholesomeness”. Caxton Hall, London (UK). 24 July 1979. Yesterday, I met a lady, and she told me that she was seeking God. I said, “What do you think of God, what are you seeking?” When we say we are seeking, do we know what are we supposed to seek, and do we understand how we are going to feel our seeking complete, that we have reached the destination? As last time, I told you that seeking has to be genuine, from a genuine heart, and that you cannot purchase, or you cannot put in effort about it. But today I would like to tell you what are we seeking. Let us see how the seeking comes within us, from where? As shown here, there is a center called as Nabhi chakra, which is here in the center [INAUDIBLE], Nabhi chakra, which is placed in our spinal chord, and manifests the solar plexus which is placed mid- way under your navel. This is the center that creates the seeking within us. Seeking is only possible when something is living. For example, what is the seeking of this chair? It cannot think, it cannot move, you can put it here or you can put it on the street. You can smash it and throw it away, again use that wood for some other purpose or make a stool out of it. It has no seeking of any kind. Only when a thing becomes a living Read More …

“Why Are We Here?”, Public programme. Cardiff, Wales (UK). 20 July 1979. … a lady from this place and she told Me that: if there were some film stars coming or some film was to be shown then there would be many more people, the whole place would be packed out, but people have no time for God.It never amazes Me, it’s very true. We have taken everything for granted but we cannot take it for a longer period. You have seen that, in all the affluent countries, wherever people have achieved their well-being through material advancement, [the people] have reached to a stage where they start thinking – why are they created? what is the purpose of their life? Why are they here? Are they here just to be born, earn some living, spend some money, run after power, run after other superficial things, which do not give you a fulfilment [of] the joy that has been promised to us through all the scriptures. And then they start thinking “After all what is it we are here for?”. One has to think why we are made human beings from Amoeba stage. What was the need for us to be human beings? There must be some purpose for our living. When this stage is reached then people don’t care for cinema stars or for any powerful personality, so called, politically or economically, but then they ask for something that is of an eternal nature. So today we are here to Read More …

How truthful are we about seeking? Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

How truthful are we about seeking?, public programme, Caxton Hall, London, England. 16 July 1979. The other day I told you about the instrument that we have already within ourselves, for us to have our own Self-knowledge, which is an actualisation, which is an experience, which is a happening by which we become That. It is the becoming, it is not any brain washing or sermoning but it’s a becoming I’m talking about. When we say, we are the seekers of Truth, how truthful are we about this seeking? This is one point we should try to understand. Are we really, genuinely seeking? Are we genuine about it, or we are doing it because it’s nice to say that we are seeking the Truth? If you have to seek something genuine, you have to be truthful yourself. This is one of the greatest hurdles in Sahaja Yoga. Sahaja Yoga is a system by which you jump into the Truth itself. You become the Truth, you don’t see the Truth, you don’t understand the Truth, but you become the Truth. It is most amazing thing that human beings don’t understand what to expect out of Truth. They are seeking Truth but they have no conception about the absolute value of Truth. Truth, we cannot compromise. It doesn’t have two sides: like you have day and night, you have right and wrong. It’s absolute! There is no compromise about it. For example, as the other day I told you that when you Read More …

Those who have come for the first time it is better if they sit in the first line most of them, those who have come for the first time. Come forward. [UNCLEAR]. You have come for the first time? We are all seekers – that is to say, that we all feel that there is some purpose in our life, that we realise that we have not had our fulfillment, that we know that we do not know why God has created us, we also do not for definite if there is a power that is called as God’s power, this divine power. It is said that, in all the scriptures, that the divine power permeates into the smallest atoms and pervades all the universes and regulates, coordinates and organizes all the working of this Mother Earth and of human relationships and that is the power of God’s love, divine love. It is too fantastic to believe for a rational mind, you do not see it operating anywhere. It is but natural people do not believe it. But there is something that makes you feel that there is a hand that has organized so many things which we cannot explain how it was organized, why it was organized. For example, we know there is gravity, but we cannot explain why there is gravity, how it is working? Once we Read More …

Guru Puja: Gravity Point London (England)

Author2 Comments

Guru Puja. Dollis Hill Ashram, London (UK), 8 July 1979. Today is the day of Guru Purnima. It is a full moon day, that’s why it’s called as purnima. The guru has to be like a full moon: means completely grown, completely matured. There are sixteen kalas, or the phases, of the moon, and when the complete purnima comes in, the full moon day, all the sixteen kalas are completed. You also know that in the Vishuddhi chakra there are sixteen sub plexuses. When Krishna is described as Viraata, He’s called as the Sampoorna: the complete incarnation of Vishnu’s aspect. Because He’s got the sixteen phases completely done. So today’s number is sixteen. Six plus one is seven. Now we have to understand the importance of guru. Why should we have a guru when we have God? We have got shakti, then why should we have a guru? What is the need to have a guru? ‘Guru’ means the weight, the weight. We get our weight from the magnetic forces of the gravity of the Mother Earth. So guru means gravity, the gravity in a person. Why do we need a guru? Because to know God is easy, specially in Sahaja Yoga, to be one with Him. As soon as you get your Self-Realisation in Sahaja Yoga, the modern Sahaja Yoga, immediately you become entitled to give Realisations to other people. It was said that guru is the person who makes you meet the Divine. But it’s not true, because Read More …

Seeking the life beyond, Caxton Hall – 1979-06-25 London (United Kingdom) Only thing I would request you not to get into Siddhis.Try to control. If it happens, I think best thing is to go out for a while because I do not want others to be disturbed in the hall, though I’ll try to control. You’re all here, because we had a feeling that there is something that lies beyond which we have to seek. The feeling has come from the unconscious mind and you all want to find out something. Perhaps you do not know what you want to find out but the feeling is there that, whatever you are, you are not in a perfect condition. That you do not know what is your fulfillment. You’re seeking actually your fulfillment. Now when I am talking to you about Sahaja Yoga I have to request you that, this subject is to be understood with careful thought. It’s not a frivolous thing, that you can get to God. Neither it is possible for any human being to achieve it himself. This makes it impossible for people to understand but as I have told you before, you have become a human being without doing anything about it. You got your nose stuck up there without using any glue, without doing any sort of exercise or circus. In the same way if you have to become that higher being, it has to happen spontaneous manner.

Sometimes he also feels that he’s acquired more powers, because these spirits are very cunning and they establish that kind of an atmosphere. So one has to be careful. There’s a regular warfare going on. And that’s why we have to just keep our spirits all right. And cowardice has no place in this war. The whole thing will work out very well if people are identified with the Truth. But Truth, as you know, is very difficult to be identified with; very difficult for human beings, absolutely next to impossible. If you tell them to be idiots, they’ll accept you. If you tell them to be stupid, they’ll accept you. Any sort of a thing that makes them look absolutely donkeys, they will do it. If you tell them to be false, they will do it. If you create any atmosphere of falsehood, they’ll accept you. But the truth? Very difficult. Very difficult. Even you will know there are some people that see my photograph and they get the cool breeze, but then when they see me fully, they cannot. Because when they see the photograph there’s a lot of darkness still in them. So they believe into me because of that part of that is darkness, because I’m just a photograph.

What have we done towards a higher Life? Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

What have we done towards a higher Life? Caxton Hall, London (UK), 19 June 1979. Every time we have some people who are new and I have to again introduce the subject, tell you about it. We are here because we are seeking. We are seeking something of the beyond because we have a feeling within us that there is something that is beyond. But we have no guideline to understand what we have to do about it. In all the scriptures it was described that there is higher life, there is eternal life, there is Kingdom of God where you have to enter, that you are to be reborn. All this is Greek and Latin to most of the people and how to achieve it is another problem that faces us. For this we must ask one question to ourselves, “What have we done to achieve this human state?” From amoeba to this stage how did we come? Do you know what you did, what effort you put in, how many times you were standing on your heads breaking your bones? Did you see any cockroach working it out? Did you see any dog doing that or did you see yourself any time? Have you any memory of that, what have you done? In any human behaviour have you seen that for doing anything important we had to do something about it? For example, we have eyes. We have them. We haven’t done anything about getting them; they’re fixed properly. Read More …

“This is not the work of mediocres”, Public programme, Dr. Johnson house, Birmingham (UK), 16 June 1979. I am really sorry we got here, reached here, on a train that was late. Things have to be done according to the timings of the Divine, you cannot plan out your own things. And that’s how sometimes one has to be later and sometimes one has to be earlier. But one thing is definite: the time has come for the final happening of your being. This being has been passing through various phases of life. You know that, that you have been a small little amoeba and then a fish, a reptile, and that’s how the evolution went on till you are today, here, sitting as a human being. All this has happened to you without your knowledge, without your deliberations. And you have taken for granted that you are a human being and all the rights as a human being are your own. In the same way you have a right to be something more than what you are, because even today you do not know what is your purpose, why all this effort was put in to create you? What is the meaning of this life? Is it pointless? Just you were created for nothing at all, for thousands of years? In such a manner that so many things were discarded, so many shapes were discarded, so many forms were discarded, and then gradually, one by one, they started disappearing Read More …

Alright? Supposing that Primordial Being takes a Human form, ?? That the completion of that was done when Krishna came ?? Sampurna?. But still for human beings it was necessary to be resurrected so his son was Christ, his own son, that was why he was called as Christ, from Krishna, Christ. And he came on this earth to show you how to fulfil the description about Divine Power that was given to us by Krishna, that it cannot be killed by any weapon, it cannot be blown by any strong winds, it cannot be cut, it is immortal. That’s why the embodiment of that immortal principle of Brahma was Christ, came on this earth. That’s why ? and Krishna placed him higher than him, if you read the Devi Mahatmayam that you find ? the incarnation of Mahavishnu he called him Mahavishnu, his own son was called as Mahavishnu and that was Christ, ?

“The Higher Life,” Public Programme, Reading, 1979   This is The Living Power that I am talking about. It has so many more facilities and also capacities to work out that no camera can replace. And there are so many eyes we have gained without any effort, without any money being paid for. Only we realise it when we have a problem with our eyes. In the same way if you have to achieve something higher, if you have to get something more than what we are, if you have to perfect ourselves, the One who has created you, the One who has manifested this human awareness within you is going to do. And He has to do it because it is His creation and He is going to see to it that He achieves the completion of His [Creation].   They were quite shocked, one or two people, when we start talking of God. That is something very, very usual I have seen in people that they do not like it when we talk about God, because they think God is a myth. Now, I would say that before we start off, with such problems of whether there is God or not, let us first see, whatever is said about God, is it [??]; is there some sense in it? Let’s find out that point. If we can find even a little bit of it, then maybe we might be able to see the whole truth.   So first Read More …

How Aspects of God are expressed within us Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

“How Aspects of God are Expressed within us,” Caxton Hall, London (UK). 11 June 1979. …Thank you. Come along. See those who are… You come in front, all right? Better thing is that the new people sit in front. It’s better. Yes. Hello. Good. Very good. So I would like to give you a little idea about this picture that we have in front of us (chakra chart). Now whom we call as God Almighty, the One who is eternal, who doesn’t incarnate, who is all the time there watching the play of His Power, the Primordial Mother, is manifested through Her Power into His three aspects here, clearly, within ourselves and within the Primordial Being who is the ultimate which all the created people have to reach. Now there’s a difference between the two, the Almighty, God, as you call Him, the One who never incarnates, and the One who incarnates on this Earth and occupies a position like this, just like a human being, and He’s called as a Primordial Being or you can say the Viraata, you can call Him the Viraat. Actually, though He’s called as ‘Primordial Being’, He’s an aspect of God. So these are two things if you understand, I will be able to explain to you how the aspects of God are expressed in us. So the first aspect of God is His desire to create, His desire to create and in His desire to create … (Oh, you were outside there Linda, Read More …

Now the permutations and combinations are, as I said, are thirty-four, thirty-five, crores [Hindi word meaning 10 million] of permutations and combinations. So, I told our great mathematician, Mr Djamel, to work it out. He said, “Impossible!” And he told Me some number; up to that we can. But this is too much. How can you work it out? How many permutations and combinations there must be in thirty-five crores of your [mind; unsure] Sahaja Yogi: Three hundred and fifty million. That’s only – that’s the basic point, you see, but how many permutations and combinations out of them are active, and how they work it out? But the only thing that the human being has is to take it. You see, this is the most difficult thing. Even if you have the best on this earth, what’s the use? If human beings are not going to turn their hands towards Me, what can I do about it? Now all these permutations and combinations are fixed and very nicely done and they work very fast. They are very busy – I have seen it – and they work all over the world, all over the universe.

And all I can ask is you just hold out your hands towards Her, relax and listen to what Mataji has to say. [Shri Mataji speaks]: I am thankful to Balaa and Philip, all My children, who have been able to arrange this hall and have you all here for this program. Modern times are really very different from whatever time the incarnations came on this Earth. There’s such a tremendous differences when Christ came on this Earth and today when somebody has to face the seekers. There were no seekers at the time of Christ, not a single seeker. When He came on this Earth, He had to actually persuade people, He had to put some sort of a explanation for them that they should seek, that there is something beyond which they should ask for. But today it’s a very different thing, today we have seekers, and not one but millions of them; especially in the West, people are seeking. The seeking comes to us through our capacity to conceive something beyond. We do not know why we are seeking, what we are seeking, but there’s a craving within us which Read More …

The Three Paths Of Evolution Caxton Hall, London (England)

AuthorLeave a comment

The Three Paths Of Evolution, public programme, Caxton Hall, London (UK). 30 May 1979. I am here to talk to you about a higher life than what we know of, about a power that pervades, permeates, every other power; and about the world which is called as the world of bliss and joy. You must have heard about all these words before also. But I am here to tell you about the instrument that resides within us, all nicely planted within our being, as clear as you see here in the picture, which is a living instrument, which you can also see pulsating actually with your own eyes when the Kundalini, this coiled energy, rises. We have already been blessed to have this ascent into our own being, the breakthrough into the unconscious, to enter into another new dimension all together in our awareness by which we really can find out answers to all your absolute questions. So far, in the ancient India, we had three types of movements. I don’t know if you are aware of all of them, but we had three types. And the reflections of that were manifesting in that country, also in other countries. Even in England we have had people who have been very busy finding out the answers to many fundamental questions, absolute questions. So the seeking has been everywhere in the whole world.
