Recording in a railway station, location still unknown, India, Sahaja Yogi: Gregoire said opposite.Sahaja Yogi: Gregoire explained to me [unclear]. As long as you explain a little the meditation, then, Yogi Mahajan [cut in the video]Shri Mataji: [Hindi]You will just take this part or go around?Cameraman: Just above like this.Shri Mataji: It’s all right. It’s all right. But you can remove this table.Cameraman: OK.Interviewer: Your students, you try to address them well, not that they don’t seem to have time, they are quite good people.Shri Mataji: Yes. So [unclear].Interviewer: So we will need their response. So, if you have any idea, I don’t know.Shri Mataji: What?Interviewer: If there is a reason for them because they will, may be better students and better people [unclear].Shri Mataji: Then for 5 minutesInterviewer: As long as you want but 10 minutes it’s OK.Shri Mataji: All right.Sahaja Yogi: We’re quite greedy Mother, we’ll take whatever.[Laughter]. Interviewer: Everyone please be quiet now. Let’s just go ahead.Cameraman: OK. I bow to all the seekers of truth. Truth is something which cannot be changed. It cannot be challenged. It cannot be imagined. One has to feel the truth on your central nervous system. What is the truth? The truth is that you are not this body, you are not this mind, you are not this intelligence, you are not these conditionings or your ego, but you are pure Spirit. This is one truth.The second one is that this whole universe is covered with a very subtle energy which Read More …

Makeshwarashiva, talk Ganapatipule (India)

Makeshwarashiva. Ganapatipule (India), 27 December 1990. Even in the Bible, in the , it is said that whatever is created by Mother Earth or by sky should not be reproduced by human beings and be worshipped. For example, even in Mecca, we have got Makeshwarashiva; in our puranas, he’s described as Makeshwarashiva itself. That’s why in Mecca we have a stone which was respected by Mohamad Sahib, you see, this subtle point should be seen; that it was a svayambhu one and it is a Makeshwarashiva itself was there. So He was respected. And every stone is not created by the Mother Earth; because the Mother Earth whatever it creates has got a coefficients which Mohamad Sahib, being an incarnation of Adi Guru or the Primordial Master could see and said that, “This is the stone, is to be kept here and go round that stone,” but didn’t explain much about it. As it is, He was tortured by people. They were all people who wouldn’t understand Him. But now here we have got Svayambhu Ganesha, and you see their vibrations coming from them. So the differentiation has to made; the svayambhu and the one which is just created for commercialization and things like that, reproductions. Even the photographs or the paintings which are created by people who are not realized souls will emit very bad vibrations. That’s why it was prohibited to have even the photographs, this was the situation. But if you go to Sistine Chapel you’ll find Read More …

Christmas Puja and Evening Program Ganapatipule (India)

Christma Puja Talk, Ganapatipule, India, 25-12-1990 [English Transcript] Today we have such a great opportunity, to celebrate the birth of Christ. He was born in a manger. All these things are already pre-planned. That He should be born in a manger, in difficult situations, to show that whether you are born poor or rich, whether you are born in difficulties, or in problems, if you have Divinity within you, it shines by itself. As the Christianity took a very wrong deviated, line, they have never been able to understand the significance of Christ. To them immaculate conception-conception is absolutely, not possible. Most of the people think that it’s some sort of a mythical story. But in India, we do believe that, Gauri created Shri Ganesha out of, Her own, vibrations, and that He became the Deity of Mooladhara. We accept it. But not in the West. They will never accept such a thing because, their mental side is over-developed and dominates them. Maybe, they are not so very old like Indians to understand that above all He is God. Even the concept of God is quite mental. Moreover, the way Christianity has been, it has not provided any proper guidance. On the contrary wherever they have failed, they said “It’s a mystery.”                   But, it’s very simple to understand for Indians, that anything is possible for God. After all He is God- He is God Almighty. Because of this mental attitude, which is much lower, than the knowledge of your spirit, Read More …

Talk on Marriages Ganapatipule (India)

Talk on Marriages About this I have to tell you last time we had this Christmas Puja and everybody became so left sided you see, I think they were missing their champagne or something. So I think this time we’ll just have Ganesha Puja, because singing carols immediately you think of champagne I think I don’t know. So they were very left sided and – we have to enjoy, these are your relations these are your brothers, these are your sisters. So must learn to enjoy them, but if you start becoming left sided for those people who are not our relations anymore, then is going to be difficult. Twenty-fifth is the Puja and twenty-eighth are the weddings, and twenty-ninth we all are leaving for Alibag. There’s one more thing I have to tell you all again, I may not be able to say this to you, that once you get married, you are not lost. You are still in Sahaja Yoga. No one consults us, they go so arbitrary in making passport visas this that’s that it’s bizarre sometimes, really bizarre, and some of the girls could not go. Specially England is very difficult, to England because of, this kind of an arbitrary behavior. So you all Indian girls, anyone should consult Yogi Mahajan because he’s in charge these days. If he comes in one piece. Everyday he is out with his file . Even if I’m going to the bathroom I come out I find him sitting with Read More …

Christmas Eve: Talk about Shri Jesus Ganapatipule (India)

AuthorLeave a comment

Talk about Shri Jesus. Ganapatipule (India), 24 December 1990. So today’s the Christmas Eve. Should say tonight is the Christmas eve and we are all here. We have to understand that now we have really, entered into the area of Jerusalem and where you are built in such a way, that we can understand, the great incarnation of Christ. So far, He was never understood because it was a very subtle incarnation and that has made people go much away from Him. From the principle of which he was made the innocence. So today we have to remember how incarnated on this earth. The innocence, the auspiciousness which was filled by Adi Shakti to begin with when She started to create this universe, that He was the embodiment of all that which was so necessary before the creation started. It’s hard to understand how people could not feel Him. They all have suffered so much. Whatever it is, for the Divine they do not suffer and they come on this earth to show how stupid we are, how we have not been able to see the Truth, to see the reality. But we repeat the mistakes again and again, because we do not know ourselves, which is the only instrument by which you can know the Divine. And when we do not know ourselves we cannot understand the Divine. Still, it’s such a great thing to see so many of you are there in that subtle area of the Spirit. Read More …

Shri Mahalakshmi Puja. Kolhapur (Maharashtra-India), Hindi Talk, 21 December 1990. This way the three and a half shakthi (Kundalini) is residing in Maharashtra, and also the Shri Chakra is residing here.All of you know that in the central path resides Mahalakshmi and also the Kundalini is awakened in the central path. For thousands of years in this Mahalakshmi temple it is recited (chanted) UDO UDO AMBE to awaken the Amba Kundalini and the kundalini shakthi in Mahalakshmi gets awakened. For this the Amba who resides in this Mahalakshmi temple arises.Kolasur was killed here and that’s why the name Kolapur. There was a rakshasa named Kolasur and he was killed here and from thename Kolasur it is named Kolapur.Wherever you go to the temples where the prithvi tattwa (Mother Earth) has created the swayambhu statues, there, completely people started making money out of it, because of this there will be less of Chaitanya (vibrations).Now you have come (sahajayogis) and it is possible again the Mahalakshmi (vibrations) get purified. Sushmna nadi is made in the way as the three nadis and behind there is a very subtle nadi and it is called Brahma nadi. The Kundalini gets first awakened in this nadi. From this subtle Brahma nadi it passes and awakens (opens) the Brahmarandra. By awakening the Brahmarandra the self realisation starts, so in this special way Kundalini’s central path is made.Whatever is the obstacle (badhas) slowly, slowly the Kundalini awakening steadies itself through meditation. In Sahaja Yoga first we reach the peak (top) after we settle down. First we go to the top… [After this one phrase, the words are not audible and Mother tells the Maharashtrians in marathi how everybody Read More …

AuthorLeave a comment

Shri Lalita and Shri Chakra Puja, Brahmapuri near Satara (India), during India Tour 1990/91, 17 December 1990. The knowledge about Kundalini has been expressed in many Sanskrit Shastras since long and also in Ayurveda it is described, not only that but the books which are for curriculum talk about Kundalini and the chakras, because Ayurveda is very, very close to Sahaja Yoga. Even in the western medicine to begin with, you should see the history they took to -dealt with three doshas. They dealt with three problems that we have as in Ayurveda. The right side which has got Pitta means bile; left side which has got Kapha means phlegm, and the central part, the problems of vayu means the gases.Now luckily so many western people have taken to Sahaja Yoga and have tried to bring down all the permutations and combinations to the simple reasoning of left, right and centre. But the knowledge of Sahaja Yoga is absolutely basics; even in Ayurveda is one step away from reality, of which it says the fundamentals. So you are dealing with the fundamentals of which a human being is built. And if this knowledge was found out long time back in India should we not accept it?The reason why people went into meditation in those days and found out all these deeper things within ourselves, because they didn’t have to fight the nature. You have seen here nature how beautiful it is. You can spend all your life under a tree, Read More …

Talk to Sahaja Yogis Pune (India)

Talk to yogis. Pratishthan, Pune (India), 14 December 1990. I asked some of the boys, “What is your policy?” They said, “We have no policy.” “Then what is your aim?” “We have no aim.” “Then why are you doing this nonsense?” They said, “Because whatever the elders tell us, we do it.” I said, “Have you no personality? Nothing?” Is exactly what happened when this hippy movement started. Some so-called intellectuals started this horrible hippy movement in the West. And when they found they cannot do anything about it, they found it’s going to fail, so many children lost their education, so many children I know became pregnant, girls and boys [sadist scout/squat]. All that took them to the extreme that they became violent. But unless and until there is a change within yourself, how can we change anything outside? We cannot. And the first seven people I fought were all hippies. Very difficult. They called themselves hippies but they used to hog like a pig. They wanted all the comforts, everything free, extremely dominating and quarrelsome people. But the foundation was laid on them. Very surprising. But I had to work on them for at least four years regularly. [Hindi] So that is how Sahaja Yoga started, and today you know how much it has spread, how far it has gone. Only in Maharashtra this problem is there of so-called intellectuals, this is called themselves, but they have no intelligence. I talked to one man; I got fed up. Read More …

India Tour Puja. Shrirampur (India), 12 December 1990. First I will speak in English and then in Marathi. [Shri Mataji speaks in English] We have come to this place with the idea that we’ll be comfortable in the other place as we were before, but you must have known that there’s a man who is quite devilish, and he has tried to make this funny arrangement just to extract some money from us for doing nothing. What I have to tell you, that we should remember that when we are doing right in this Kruta Yuga, this is the time when the Paramachaitanya has become active. That’s why it is called as Kruta Yuga. At this time this Power is extremely active. They used to torture the saints in this country and every country who were real people, and they used to also make their lives impossible, because they were lonely people: one saint here, one saint there. But in these modern times we are so many, we have so many Sahaja Yogis all over the world. So first of all we are collectively very strong, and secondly the Brahmachaitanya itself has become active. It’s a very great thing, we must realize it within ourselves, that no amount of cruelty, planning against us, any kind of violence of other people cannot harm us. If they ever try to harm us, they’ll be harmed themselves; apart from that, all our work will go all smoothly. But we should not lose even Read More …

Sarvajanik Karyakram Date 5 December 1990: Place Pune Public Program Type Speech-Language Hindi  [English translation from Hindi] I bow to the seeker of truth! Regarding truth, we must know that truth remains stationed at its place. We cannot change it, amend, organize, or implement it. Sadly, we cannot know it by human senses. That is why we see that there is discrimination in the world. People are fighting amongst themselves because they are blind to the truth. Various activities are cropping up, new thoughts emerging, new agencies, and a new set of questions. This does not concern Indians alone but the entire world. In the entire world there, is one desire crossing the minds of humans that is where are we going? Besides, what we have to achieve? When I will speak to you about this today, I request you to keep your mind open scientifically. A person with a closed mind cannot be a scientist. Whatever I am telling you please listen to it as a hypothesis. If proven then accept it with honesty. Those who live in India think that they live in bad conditions because they have not yet visited the conditions outside. Hence, they think that problems here can never get over. However, if you go to the developed countries, you will realize what kind of problems are faced by them. In America, which we consider developed 65% of people are suffering from some mental nonsense, you will hardly find anyone in the US who will Read More …

Sitar Concert Talk Shri Mataji: Please be seated.The combination of two Yogis played so beautifully together, whith such friendship and understanding, and love. And all of you enjoyed them so much. I felt the collective consciousness had reached its peak today. Now for music, whatever has to be said, he is so great that in words, it is difficult to put all that. Music is something that you can not express, unless and until you experience it. It is a question of experience. It is not the mental acrobatie that you have to play with. But it is something to be experienced in your being, in the totality of your personality. And that, when it happens, it just becomes vibrated in the whole atmosphere also. That is what we have experienced after Self-realisation, all of us. And it gives you also the Self-realisation. It was really remarkable! So now, we can see what Sahaja Yoga can do to all, how it can give a new dimension of a rapport, which has never seen before. Such a rapport is established, even if you do not know the A, B, C of music, even if you have never been in any Indian school of music, even if you have never heard such an Indian music. Still, once you have felt your Spirit, you can enjoy this music, because, as you know that Indian music and Western clasical music is all nothing but spirituality. So, we were all enjoying the ocean of joy. Read More …

Puja in Pune (extracts), India, 3 December 1990. So, welcome to all the Sahaja Yogis from abroad. So we start from today our Maharashtra Tour, which you can see is full of these hills and dales. Also, the atmosphere is going to be extremely rustic. Of course the comforts of this place have not been up to the mark, but next year it will be much better, I’m sure. We have decided to purchase even this plot of land, but as you know we have a land on top, there on the hill at the top. That’s one of the highest peaks in this area. That land we have already purchased, and we are going to have an Ashram there, and this will be the place used for parking. I hope you like the atmosphere here and the surroundings, the nature. People in Maharashtra are blessed by great saints and people who were Naths, like Gyaneshwara; and that’s why they have a tremendous base of spirituality. But still they are to be guided to get their Self Realization. As you know that without spirituality, the life is very much in, is in imbalance. It does not have a totality of enjoyment. I don’t know if there is any enjoyment otherwise also; because if you just live with your machineries and materialism, they cannot give you joy. And that’s what you have discovered, the emptiness of life. And that’s the reason you want spirituality, to give a complete expression to your Read More …

Talk Unidentified (India)

AuthorLeave a comment

Talk Unidentified When there is opposition of any kind, or inconveniences, we start becoming subtler and subtler, as long as we accept it as a challenge. Every seed which is sprouted has a small little primule, out of which comes out the shoot and the root. And the root is so delicate and small. At the tip of the root, there is a very intelligent cell and this cell knows how to carry on its journey. So it gradually penetrates into soft muddy, land, but when it comes across any stone, then it encircles round it. Now, it could manage just avoiding it but no it encircles, so he uses that stone for future, support, of the tree. So intelligent it is, and that’s how it works out its way to the source. So you might start thinking that: “Look at this little cell that you can see through microscope. It has got a sense how to penetrate into the soil, also to go round the stones, also to go towards the, source of water. So what is the guiding factor? We never think about it. All the trees, all the animals, are in complete bandhan of God. Absolutely. They have no freedom of their own in a way. They are completely guided by God, and that guideline is, in that little cell. We have seen many birds flying out, thousands and thousands, all the way, Siberia to Australia. Who guides them? How do they know where is Australia which Read More …

Doctor’s Conference, Pune, India I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset I have to very humbly say that truth is what it is, we cannot organize it, we cannot order it, we cannot describe it, it is also beyond human awareness. This is the fact which I am placing before you and also one has to realize that if it is not possible to comprehend in our human awareness we have to cross a certain threshold of our awareness. Unless and until that happens we cannot understand the truth, it’s not a mental feat these are not mental acrobats or emotional outbursts. It is something that is all the time there and then what’s the truth.Another thing I would like to say very much at the outset because you are all scientists here sitting, as scientist you must keep your mind open otherwise you can never discover new things. If you are just settled with what you know so far that doesn’t show that you are a scientist. A scientist must keep his mind open all the time and these… all these that they have talked you need not agree, you need not blindly follow it, there is no need to follow it. But one thing is sure that you must take it as a hypothesis… as a hypothesis as any scientist would take and then see for yourself if it is true then as honest people you must accept it.So now what is the truth, it’s very Read More …

1990-1110 Public Program in Taipei I bow to all the seekers of truth. At a very outset, I have to say that truth is what it is. We cannot organize it ,and we cannot conceptualize it with our human awareness. Now whatever they have told you, whatever I’m going to tell you, you have to listen to it with an open mind of a scientist, you should not believe me blindly. Blind faith doesn’t lead you to enlightenment, but you please keep your mind open and treat whatever I’m saying or they’re saying as hypothesis, and then if it is proved, then as honest people, you have to accept it. The truth is very simple. The first thing is the fundamental that you are not this body, you are not this mind, you are not this intellect or this conditioning or ego, but you are pure spirit. And the second truth is that there is an all pervading power of God’s love which does all living work. For example, these flowers so beautiful here have come out of one little seed. We do not even think how it has happened. All these living work is done by this all pervading subtle power. So when you become the spirit, you can feel this all pervading power as cool breeze on your fingertips. Whatever you may believe, whatever you may think, a time will come when you will feel the emptiness within yourself. Because in the evolutional process, now you have become Read More …

Author1 Comment

Public Program – Day 2, Bangkok Thailand, 06-11-1990 [Introduction by a Sahaja Yogi until min. 04:40] I bow to all the seekers of truth. As I told you yesterday that truth is what it is. You cannot conceptualize it and you cannot also feel it with your human awareness. You have to become the Spirit – the subtler being. This is the knowledge of the roots. And if you have to know the roots you have to become a subtler being. All the civilization has grown outside as a big tree but we should find out our roots otherwise all this civilization will be destroyed because we have lost our balance completely. In Russia people believe that democratic countries have all roads paved with gold but they do not know how demonic these democracies have become – such a lot of violence, so many diseases and so many people absolutely sick. So it is high time for us to have an introspection and also to get out of this relative world of different ideologies we have to find out the absolute. So the only way, as it is suggested by all the religions and all the saints, is to get your Self-realisation. As all this is been explained to you now, you know there is within our understanding and reality this instrument is hidden and this is built within us during our evolutionary process. We have become human beings with a purpose and the purpose of our life is to Read More …

1990-1105 PUBLIC PROGRAM Day 1 BANGKOK I’m sorry for being late but there was some sort of flooding and the whole road was closed! I bow to all the seekers of Truth. At the very outset, we have to know that the Truth is what it is. You cannot conceptualize it, you cannot organize it; also you cannot feel it with your human awareness. You have to become a subtler being. The truth is that you are not this body, you are not this mind, you are not these emotions. But you are the Spirit. And another truth is that there is an all-pervading power of God’s Love about which all the scriptures have been written. So the aim of spiritual ascent is to seek the Spirit. You have to be the Self. Unless and until you become that, you will be filled with a kind of emptiness. And you will feel extremely restless about it. This all-pervading power is the one that does all living work. We take it for granted, these beautiful flowers, everything, we take it for granted. We do not also think how from a little seed these beautiful flowers have come out. But there’s a mechanism within us also, which will sprout and give us the second birth. For this, you cannot pay and we do not pay to Mother Earth for what She does for us. We cannot pay for it. But people have forgotten that it is so invaluable. And there are so Read More …
