Singing With Shri Mataji 1st two bhajans meaning by Shri Mataji Silence! It is a very beautiful song. It says that (not clear) borrowed treasure. They cannot give you the (unclear) of God. They cannot give you the sign of God. They are just borrowed treasure, about the people who make money out of God. So one has to get to God, God himself has to come to give us the sign of God. The beautiful one. Eka Jananardhani. The Janardhan as you know is Shri Krishna’s name. He is the one who gives us the sign of God. He is the one who gives us the sweetness of God. He is the one who gives the experience. The beautiful song and the first one was that we are spending our time in our worldly things, in our worldly affairs, in our worldly relationships and in our worldly family. Now I am fed up of this and now I just want to enjoy that is really the truth. Now whatever is sweet now has become absolutely bitter for me and whatever was bitter has become sweet for me. It’s all about the saints what happens. God Bless You. 3rd Bhajan meaning by Shri Mataji This is a very sweet couplet by the village women, the milkmaids to the mother of Shri Krishna that he is such a horrible, naughty fellow ( all laugh) that you better look after him that he is stealing all our milk and our butter and Read More …

Shri Durga Puja. Rahuri (India), 1 February 1982. Today is a special day. There is a combination of two things happening. Adi mai English maday bolte pan Marathi boliye (meaning: First I will speak in English then Marathi) Today is first in the morning time, at 8:50 in the morning, was a very important day that started at 8:50 in the morning, called as Ratha Saptami – is the seventh day. And it is said that Sun travels with his seven forces, or say, seven colours in a big chariot. And today they celebrate this day as a day when Sun travels with a divine vibrations all over the world, and illumines. So it was too early for anyone of you to do this, so till…I got up very early of course and worked out that part for you. The second important thing which is a combination, which is a very, very auspicious thing – that you get on one day, two dates. One is Ratha Saptami, on that day you cannot do havan because it is the Surya already is there. So the second thing is, [which] today we do, is a very great puja of Ashtami (eighth day): is the day when the Goddess killed nine rakshasas together with Her eight hands. So today is a very special day for which a very special attention is needed. It’s only at the behest of the bhaktas that the Goddess took Her form and killed all these rakshashas. Also with Read More …

Why was it named Mhasoba?” Sahaja Yogi : “Many deities hence, Mhasoba is the name” Shri Mataji :  “Several deities hence Mhasoba – Ekadasha Rudra. Ekadasha Rudra, Mhasoba is Ekadasha Rudra. What I mean to say, is that what Mhasoba is, is not understood by all” Sahaja Yogi: “It is difficult to understand.’ Shri Mataji : “Then you may call it as Ekadasha Rudra.

Conversation Rahuri (India)

Conversation, 1982, India …Coming down here to convert people. It’s a question of democracy, you see? Because in a democratic country, if there are more majority of the Muslims or Christians, then will become the, sort of the rulers, you see? So this move is you have to purchase people, convert them, and they are worried about it. I told them Sahaja Yoga is the only way by which people will settle down into themselves.You see, to have such a large majority in this country — (better I have some more, please) — such a large majority, or, I, I should say such a large democracy. And democracy, one has to pay a lot, because such, such influences might infiltrate, see? The Saudi Arabians can come down here and sort of clamp the whole country with their own government, possibility is there.I mean, they can’t do this in Russia or Poland or any place where they sow democracy. Which, without democracy people cannot develop. They cannot develop. Like, if a, say a Russian comes here, he’s not bothered about yoga or anything, never. He’s in, in say, if he’s in Bombay he’ll ask if there’s a discotheque or something. If he comes to the villages he will see how dirty your villages are. He is so inconvenient. He has so many problems, kind of basic. He can never feel the peace. He can never feel the peace because they are not developed, you see. All such undemocratic countries have human Read More …

H.H.Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi speaking in Marathi at a Sahaja Yoga public meeting at Rahuri Agricultural University, with Sahaja yogis speaking in English. Rahuri, Maharashtra, India. (1982-0201) [NOTE] This is a discussion on TM beginning with Shri Mataji speaking in Marathi, followed by Marcus and Rustom in English on the techniques of TM, and its effects. Shri Mataji: हा, आता सांगायचं म्हणजे TM मध्ये सगळी भूतविद्या स्मशाणविद्या असते. आणि ते काय करतात, कि तुमच्यात हि भूत घालतात, आणि ते भूतं तुम्हाला वेडयासारखी करून टाकतात. अहो, लोकांना इतकं म्हणजे, भीती बसते कि त्यांना जर तुम्ही लसूण दाखवलं तर थरथर थरथर कापतात. लसणाला भितात, म्हणजे भाजीला भितात, म्हणजे काय हे? माणसाला इतकं युजलेस करून टाकलेलंय. इतकंच नव्हे लसणा तरचच तर सोडा, पण त्यांची हि स्थिती आहे कि त्या लोकांना जर तुम्ही एखादा धूप जाळला, किंवा देवाचं नाव घेतलं तर थरथर थरथर होतात. बरं, would you like to say something about TM? Someone? Varey? Someone, what happens with TM? Would you like to say something Marcus? Please tell them, because now they are coming to India and trying to show TM technique, better tell them. आणि उडण्याचे यांचे फोटो घेतले कि, आम्ही उडतोय म्हणून म्हणजे काय करायचं कि अस स्परिंग वर बसवायचं, सांगतात ना, आणि मग म्हणायचं कि आम्ही उडतोय. म्हणजे जसं आपण आता घोडयावर वगैरे बसायचा प्रयत्न केला आणि शिकलो जसं सर्कशीत असतं तसं थोडंसं एक मिनिट वर येतो मनुष्य. त्यांचे फोटो …… यांच्या सगळया मांड्या सगळया घासलेल्या, खाली सगळी हाडं मोडलेली, अशा स्थितीत हे माझ्याकडे आले, विचारा त्यांना. I am telling Read More …
