That is the best, if you have [Unclear] Sahaja yogi: Should we give the translation in French and in English or in French? Shri Mataji: French is all right. So first you read the translation, then the name and then Om Swaha. That would be better, understood better. First read the translation. Who will do the translation? Sahaja yogi 2: I can do, Shri Mataji, but it is the other book. Shri Mataji: You will do the English. You can do? Alexander? You can do English? Sahaja yogi 2: I can read in English.

When you become the spirit, actualization takes place Geneva (Switzerland)

Public Program Day 3, Geneva, Switzerland, 31.08.1983 I Bow to all the seekers of Truth Within us lies the truth, it is said in all the scriptures, where does it lie? Nobody has told so far exactly where it lies. You must have realized from Armour’s lecture that he is Swiss, and he has become such an expert on Kundalini Yoga. There are many young people, very young, who come to Sahaja Yoga, and within a month, they can speak on truth. It is the actualization of the truth that is important. It is the becoming that is important. It is not reading or knowing it from outside, but becoming one with the truth. Whatever we can see outside, is outside us, but when we become that it acts. It shows its power. But so far in the human endeavor, there is nothing that can really give analogy of actualization. For example, somebody becomes the president, still he can lose his job. He may manifest his powers which are bestowed upon him, but he may be wrong. He may make mistakes. He may do exactly what he is not supposed to do. He would not know absolute truth. But when you become the spirit, actualization takes place. As I told you the other day, it is not branding yourself that you are twice born, that you are a realized soul, that you are a very religious person or a righteous person, but you become. It is the becoming. For example, Read More …

Talk to New Sahaja Yogis: Now you are not there where you were Tannay (Switzerland)

1983-08-31 Talk to New Sahaja Yogis TRNSCRIPT INCOMPLETE [27:57] And once you have found the lamp and have lightened it then you don’t have to use a lamp to see that, do you?  That lamp itself gives light.  So this must be understood logically that now you are not there where you were.  That you are at a different level and accept all the transformations as reality.  And don’t live in the past or in your imagination.  As I have told many a times a that supposing a beggar is made a king, now he is sitting on a throne, he sees everybody is coming and bending before him bowing to him.  Bowing…But he being beggar in the mind puts his hand out and says can you give me some money.  So the situation is like this.  So the…so when I see people having miserable looks on their face I think the same beggar is coming back.  So sometimes it peeps in.  So you now say that now I know you are not there.  Now better go away.  So one of the responsibilities you have is to establish yourself fully in sahaja yoga with complete dedication, understanding, knowing what is to be done. But the problem I have seen is that as soon as you become something like that you start telling others, “You are catching there, you are like this.  Mother has sent me specially to do this work.  I am someone. I am special, this, that.  But if Read More …
