Shri Ganesha Puja: What Are You Here For? Solapur (India)

AuthorLeave a comment

Shri Ganesha Puja in Sholapur, (India), 4 January 1983. I’m sorry, I’ve not been able to, in a way, talk to you [Marathi] to talk to you directly about things and, though you know I’ve been looking after you very well. [Marathi] And I didn’t have so much time but you know, I have to work very hard and when you have only one program, I have three or four programs. And I’m working very hard for them. And you see, I’ve told you that Maharashtra is going to be very fast movement and we have to move very fast. Now what you have to understand is that you have come for this program of Maharashtra for what? Why have you come here? That people must understand. What I find that there is no understanding of this simple fact, with some people – some people are murmuring souls among you and they don’t understand why are they here. They are here to learn certain things for Sahaja Yoga. Now, especially if you do not have an ashram also there’s always a problem to learn how to live with others and in a way that we should move in a Spartan way, in a Spartan way. How to live in a Spartan way and how to be smart? Now see these people here, Maharashtrians are. Just look at them, you have to learn from them. How quick! I don’t have to tell them anything. See they are so self-disciplined within themselves. Read More …

Address to Indian Medical Association Solapur (India)

Address to Indian Medical Association. Sholapur (India), 4 January 1983. The organizers and the members of the Medical Association in Sholapur, its such a pleasure to talk to (* inaudible text) because you have also heard that I did some medicine. Just to talk to doctors about it. Because in the realm of the divine, there are no names given to any plexuses. It’s difficult to talk to doctors unless and until you know their language. Now the main thing we have to understand about Sahaja yogi is this that when we are trying to analyze or find out through scientific methods anything, we can only do it when that part is available to us, apparent to us, that we can see it, we can feel it, we can analyze it. Like a tree, we see the tree on top of the Mother Earth. For us it is easy to see the tree. But supposing we have to go deep down into the roots. So Sahaja Yoga is the knowledge of the roots and not of the tree. Of Course, the tree is very important because root has no meaning if there is no tree. But tree is more important when it can tell you that there are roots to it. So all our knowledge of science whatever it is, whatever discoveries we have made, how far we have gone? I mean we can go very deep into it, I know that. But still, you can not reach the absolute. Read More …
