God can never make some people available to religion and others not Los Angeles Ashram, Los Angeles (United States)
1992-0915 Persian Public Program, Ashram, Los Angeles I am very happy to see you all here. I went to Iran in the year 1971, and I was surprised that the people there were just prepared to get their realization; and at that time, you had this king ruling there. We had a program in some hall and many people got their realization. And after that, all these problems came in and I couldn’t keep contact with them at all; but they must be somewhere, all of them who got their realization at that time. Also some people were cured with Sahaja Yoga. Now the time has come for us to be awakened. All these problems of fundamentalism, which have not only troubled you – they have fundamentalism everywhere, the whole world – there are Christians who are fundamentalists, there are Jews who are fundamentalists, all kinds of things they are doing. As you have seen that, how so many Muslims were killed in Yugoslavia, and now many Muslims are killing. It’s going on between this and that area. Nobody has business to kill anyone, but it is happening. The reason is that it has gone into their heads that they are perfect, they have got everything. This is the worst thing that has happened in the name of God. God can never make some people available to religion and others not. These are all great saints, seers, prophets, incarnations, born on the same tree of life. Only people pluck those Read More …
How to transform the human awareness into another dimension? Vancouver (Canada)
1992-09-13 Public Program in Vancouver I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset, we have to know that truth is what it is. It is something that we cannot know with this human awareness, we cannot think about it, we cannot conceptualize it, we cannot read about it. So, this human awareness has to be transformed into another dimension, then only we will know what is the truth. We have to know the absolute truth, which cannot be challenged by anyone and which cannot be questioned by anyone and all those who know it has the same feeling, have the same understanding. As I am sitting before you, all of you can see I am sitting before you, that’s the truth. If this is the absolute thing, then there should be no quarrel about it, no fighting about it. So, today’s problems, which we call as severe ones, which are very disturbing, are mostly coming from human beings, humbly we must admit that, and all these problems are coming to us from our centres, which are placed within us, which we have used by our imbalances, we have brought forward all these problems. Now, whatever I want to tell you today you should not accept me blindfolded. This blind faith has not helped anyone so far, so just treat it as a hypothesis and keep an open mind like a scientist, if it is truth, then as honest people you have to accept, because it is Read More …
Hamsa Chakra Puja Vancouver (Canada)
Hamsa Chakra Puja, Vancouver (Canada), 13 September 1992. Today we are going to worship the Hamsa Chakra. So far we have been always worshipping a Deity and this is the second time you are worshipping this centre of Hamsa. Now this chakra is, it is, you know, placed between the two eyebrows and two eyes represent the left and the right side. So this centre is very much guided by our eyes, by our ears, by our nose, tongue, teeth, throat. Is a very important centre because the Vishuddhi, which has to look after sixteen petals, which, sixteen petals, which look after all these ear, nose, throat, different, different organs within us, also it has to communicate with the Viraat. So it has to pass through this centre of Hamsa Chakra. Hamsa Chakra is the very pivotal centre, which expresses auspiciousness in our awareness. That means, if this centre is alert and awakened, then we immediately know what is auspicious and what is not auspicious, or we can call it, we get the Divine Discretion. I think it is a part of the genetics that people have discretion between good and bad, destructive and constructive. It is basically, has to be there, but we can easily spoil it by all these organs which are collecting the conditionings and the ego from outside. That’s why this centre is very vulnerable. Other centres are not so much connected outside as this centre is connected, and receives all the information from, all these Read More …
Unless and until you have the actualisation of this experience, you cannot become divine Terrace on the Park, New York City (United States)
Public Program [note = There are 5 audio tracks out of which 4&5 is realisation which is excluded from transcription here, (SR part on Video)] Track 1Shri Mataji: At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot change it, we cannot transform it, we cannot describe it, but, truth is that you have to feel this all pervading power of divine love on your central nervous system. Another truth is, fundamental one, that you are not this body, this mind, these emotions, this ego, these conditionings, but, you are pure spirit. This is what you have to become. You have to get to your selfhood. Just giving sermons and lectures or talking about it, it is not going to work out. It is the actualisation which is important. Unless and until you have the actualisation of this experience, you cannot become divine. The divinity within you is absolutely there intact. Nothing can disturb it because it is eternal. But it has been through our thinking, may be be our ignorance, call it anything, is covered as the sun can be covered with clouds. It is all there. But you are here, you are here as seekers and I respect you and I bow to you because you are seekers, seekers of truth. What do you have to find? You have to become the spirit. This is the most important point we have missed in our seeking. I know in this New York when Read More …
Shri Ganesha Puja: Genetics of Wisdom Campus, Cabella Ligure (Italy)
Shri Ganesha Puja. Cabella (Italy), 30 August 1992. Last time you had asked Me for Gurupada, and you should know that the essence of guru is Shri Ganesha, the innocence. You must be knowing the story of a very devoted wife, faithful wife, of a sati. Her name was Anasuya, and she was so religious and so dedicated that they say that the wives of all the gods – Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesha – got very jealous of her. So they told their husbands that, “You must go and test her, if she’s really a woman with chastity or not.” So all of them came down as sadhus, dressed up like sanyasis. And she said she wanted to serve them, give them something. They said, “No, we want to have food.” She said, “All right, come and sit down.” She cooked food for them. So they said, “No, we will not have the food unless and until you take out all your clothes. We’ll only have the food if you take out all your clothes.” She said, “Is it so?” They said, “Yes.” So she made them into little, little children, three little children, and then she became nude, because the innocent doesn’t understand anything about it. And then she joined them together, their three innocents were joined together, and they got their Gurupada. That’s how the Adi Guru was created. So the first thing is that if you want your Gurupad, you have to be innocent. “Innocent” is a very Read More …
Advice given by Shri Mataji on Indian Spices and Ingredients Montfermeil Ashram, Montfermeil (France)
Advice given by Shri Mataji on Indian Spices and Ingredients, At breakfast on August 26, 1992, Shri Mataji us with these instructions on the use of some Indian spices and ingredients. 1- Coriander: Seeds: teeth, liver. Leaves: act as a regulator of body flagrance. 2-Cumin: Teeth, liver (jira, coriander and ajwain prevent gases) 3-Tumeric: Skin, liver 4- Ginger: Liver 5- Garlic: High blood pressure, heart problems (garlic came from ambrosia: therefore it is good for the heart. On the other hand, it’s a perfect horror to bhoots and the like.) 6- Silver Leaf: (Shri Mataji gave us cardamon seeds, each rolled in silver leaf. Immediately the whole right half of our bodies colled down) 7- Cardamon seeds: Extremely cooling (the shell should not be eaten) Used a lot in combination with other hot species to give balance: like garam masala, curry, or with black tea (chai) etc. 8- White cheese: (Fresh cheese like mozzarella, cottage cheese, panir, etc.) Very good and light. It would be better for the liver if we could get used to these instead of our yellow cheeses. (At that point Shri Mataji gave a bandhan that cheese like mozzarella be produced and brought to market in Austria, Germany and others countries. This is because, in most of European countries, we get only expensive imported Italian white cheese). 9- Yellow cheese: (Cheese like Emmenthal, gouda, Chester, etc but without fungus) alright, but take care with the liver. 10- Rotten cheese: (Things like camembert, gorgonzola, Roquefort, quargel, etc. Read More …
One has to rise above your physical, emotional and mental side University of Geneva, Geneva (Switzerland)
Public Program. Geneva (Switzerland), 24 August 1992. Shri Mataji: It’s all right, it’s ? I don’t need, I don’t need. It’s all right. Shri Mataji: You can ask them, all of them, to sit; I think there are chairs here and there. Standing, what you can see here also? On the, on the? they can come on the stage. It’s a big stage, you know. They can come here, on the stage. Please come. I bow to all the seekers of Truth. At the very outset, at the very outset, we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot think about it, we cannot read about it and we cannot conceptualize it. And also unfortunately at this human awareness we cannot feel it; we cannot know it. One has to rise above your physical, emotional and mental side. We have reached a stage of this human awareness through our evolution, but we do not know the absolute truth. This is the reason why there are so many theories coming up, so many dogmas, and there are fights, wars, all kinds of problems in this world. Thanks to Mr. Gorbachev that the political wars may not take place. But fundamentalism is the biggest problem today. And we do not know how they work out their fundamentalism on our minds. It is very important now to understand because this is going to be the greatest problem for us and for our children. To get over the fundamentalism, the only Read More …
Shri Krishna Puja: Ascending beyond the Vishuddhi, The Viraata State Campus, Cabella Ligure (Italy)
Shri Krishna puja. Ascending beyond the Vishuddhi, The Viraata State, Cabella Ligure (Italy), 16 August 1992. Today we have decided to have the puja of Shri Krishna. We have many a times done this puja and have understood the essence of Shri Krishna’s advent, which was six thousand years back. And now, what His manifestation was, what He wanted to be accomplished has to be done in this Kali Yuga. As it is, this Kali Yuga is going into a new realm of Satya Yuga, but in between there is Krita Yuga where this Brahmachaitanya, or we can say the all-pervading Power of God’s love, is going to act. At this time, what is going to happen with Shri Krishna’s powers – this is what we have to see. Shri Krishna, as I told you, was the incarnation also of diplomacy. So He plays around quite a lot, and ultimately He brings forth the untruth and the falsehood; but in doing that He judges people. So it’s very important that Shri Krishna’s powers of His diplomacy were to be manifesting at this time, when it is the Last Judgment. So now whatever we have done wrong before, whatever karmas which have been done in ignorance maybe, or maybe deliberately, all of them will be paid back. Those punyas which you have done in previous life, this life, will be also rewarded. This is all done through Shri Krishna’s principles of collectivity, where He collectively sees the situation. For example, as Read More …

We are here to seek the truth Congress Centre Paasitorni, Helsinki (Finland)
Public Program, Congress Centre Paasitorni, Helsinki, Finland, 1992-0812 Please, be seated. I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset, we have to remember that we are here to seek the truth. It’s not a sermon, it’s not a lecture. It’s not fundamentalism. I am happy to see that there are so many seekers in this country.Truth is what it is. You cannot change it. You cannot transform it. You cannot read about it. You cannot conceptualise it. You have to feel it, you have to become. I was also born in a Protestant family in India. And that’s how I know much more about Christianity than anyone of you can know. And I feel we have missed the point. Because you cannot seek Christianity and also truth. Christianity is very different from Christ. It’s absolutely mental. And especially, I have attended Lutheran Church and I treated many of them, Lutheran Church. Of course, one has to understand that all the seers, our forefathers have been following Christianity. Especially in my country, Christians came with the Bible in one hand and a revolver in another, gun in hand. And the kind of aggressiveness we see, thank God, Columbus luckily went to America, otherwise I wouldn’t have been here. No Indian would have been spared. You will be amazed that in Argentina and Chile, I have been to. You can’t find a single aboriginal resident, not one! You have to go to the museum to see them. Is Read More …
Shri Mahalakshmi Puja: Morality is extremely important St. Petersburg (Russia)
Shri Mahalakshmi Puja, Russia, 1922-08-09 Today we are going to worship Mahalakshmi principle within us. As we know very well Mahalakshmi Principle resides in the central part of our being. Through which Kundalini has to rise. But Kundalini enters our body in the left side. In the sense that its the residual power of deity everything left side right side and then She enters into our sacrum. So in the Mahalakshmi temple in Kulamlpur they sing a song of Kundalini ambe that oh Amba please rise, kundalini please rise. In the Mahalakshmi temple, they have to do it because through Mahalakshmi channel she rises. Now the Mahalakshmi principle within us starts manifesting when our Lakshmi principle is complete. Mahalakshmi principle is ascent above all material seeking. Lakshmi principle is when people are seeking more material wealth. But there is no end to Lakshmi principle also. as the economics says that wants in general are nor satiable. So well want something today we get it but we are not satisfied and we want to have another thing and we are not satisfied so we go on asking for more and more. But once we realise that this mad pace is too much then we start thinking what should be the next. Communism has brought lots of things to you. You may be angry with people who brought communism but actually they have done so much good to you, you have no idea. First of all, you did not have idea of Read More …
We have to be subtler, to be in the state of Spirit to feel the Truth Valeriy Lobanovskyi Dynamo Stadium, Kyiv (Ukraine)
Public program, 1992-0806, Dynamo stadium, Kyiv, Ukraine I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We can not think about it, imagine about it or change it. (To the interpreter, “Your’s [microphone – ed.] is a more sort of a echoes, echo, little. Mine is all right.” Then they change their microphones.) … level also we can not feel the truth. We have to be subtler, to be in the state of Spirit to feel the Truth. And to become the Spirit there is a complete machinery within us which works it out. Already built within us during our evolutionary process. Now, it is the time, a special time, when you all can have that state of Spirit. This is your rebirth. As it is said that you are to be born again. But it is not just a certificate that we are born again but something has to happen within. And for that happening you are all absolutely ready. Within us lies the sense of faith in something. We had this faith that there must be something beyond. But it has been challenged or diverted. So we started seeking truth in areas where it does not lie. For example the first attack came to us we can say in Ukraine through communism. So we had our faith in communism. It has done one thing good that it did not allowed you to have faith in fundamentalism. Read More …

Public Program Tolyatti (Russia)
Public Program. Togliatti (Russia), 5 August 1992. I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot change it, conceptualize it. It is beyond our thinking, beyond our mind. So now you have to just open your hearts to what I want to tell you and you need not believe Me blindfolded. You need not also close your mind. You have to be like a scientist and see for yourself [whether] what I am saying is true or not. And when it is proved, you have to believe as honest people. [To someone in the audience] Do you mind taking photographs after the program? Thank you. Because it is for your benevolence. And it is for the benevolence of the whole world. It is all -whatever I am saying is the truth and you can verify it. It is absolutely tangible. Whatever is said about the centres that you have within yourself, is the subtle knowledge of your roots. If we grow just like a tree and do not know about our roots, we can be destroyed. All of us are born with a sense of faith in someone. The sense of faith is, can be for anything. Also, we have our divinity absolutely intact within ourselves. Whether you have belief in it or not, it is there. Whatever mistakes you might have committed, it cannot be destroyed. Because it is absolutely eternal in nature. Every Read More …

Medical Conference Moscow (Russia)
1992-08-03 Medical Conference, Moscow Shri Mataji: I bow to all the seekers of truth. And as I always say that the truth is what it is. And if you know the totality, then only you should say we know the truth. There are all scientists here. And I had to just say that whatever I have to tell you if you treat it as a hypothesis and if it is the truth then as honest people you must accept it. We have science also of medical studies by which we know what we see. And We have discovered all these years one after another many tricks. And the medicine is developed when we find it’s injurious, We give up than other medicine they develop, to cure some diseases. As we studied medicine, first you have to know about the human body. But We do not know what runs this body, What runs our heart. We call it an autonomous nervous system But who is this auto… Now We have a subtle system within ourselves which is shown here too. You see a system Which exists in the spinal cord as you see & also in the brain. And it has to be activated. Otherwise what we do is with the limited. Limited Knowledge! That is why Science is not Conclusive. It treats something today, then it gives up …Like it goes on changing. But this is Meta Science. This is the science of the roots. Not the science that you Read More …
We are here to feel the truth Moscow (Russia)
Public Program Day 2, Moscow Russia 1992-08-02 [Full speech – 17:00 till 45:00] I bow to all the seekers of truth. As I told you yesterday that truth has to be felt on your central nervous system. By doing something only mentally just by your own mental innocence is not the truth. Actually, you have to feel it, and this is what we are here to feel the truth. Now the truth is that you are the spirit. (What’s the matter? What is the problem?). Mentally you may think that this is the truth, but that is our own imagination, our own conditioning, our own ego. The actualization of the truth is the aim of our lives. As I told you the truth is, you are the spirit and the another truth is that all this living work is done, all this creation is created by a very subtle power which is all-pervading. We do not feel it, this all-pervading power we don’t feel till we have been connected. So that power we have to feel which is source of everything. We have come from amoeba to this stage and there is a little more we have to travel to get to that position. To achieve that state, one must know that is spontaneous, it is a living process. Yesterday I told you that I will tell you about the mechanism, specially about the kundalini. The kundalini is a energy within us of pure desire. She lies in this triangular Read More …
Talk on Arrival: Within us is the universal religion Moscow (Russia)
Welcome Talk, Airport Shri Mataji:I am overjoyed to be here with all of you. I did not know that Russians were that sensitive to spirituality. Spirituality is the only thing which leads us to reality and to truth and not anything else…And only through our self-knowledge, we can emancipate our self and also emancipate the whole world for which you don’t have to pay anything as you know and you don’t have to put any effort. It is within you. The divinity is within you which will manifest. Everyone has that faith within oneself to believe in something but you believe in reality…These days the problem is fundamentalism. Be careful.Now you have given up the faith into communism don’t jump into fundamentalism that’s another greatest curse of the whole world… You have to know that within us is the universal religion…And we don’t have to have so many religions. But fundamentalist wants their religions separated so that they can fight and have wars and create problems for human beings.Only by your ascend into the self-realisation that you will realize that we all human beings are just the same and we have one universal religion within ourselves…All the world problems are because of human beings, and human beings have problems because of their centres (chakras). If they can be cured …The whole world problems can be solved…And this divinity is within you which is eternal … untarnishable! It is not destroyed at all. It’s all there intact. Through Sahaja Yoga, it Read More …
In this era all that has been done wrong will be exposed Moscow (Russia)
1992-0801 Public Program Day 1, Moscow, Russia [Talk starts at 25:51 minutes] I bow to all seekers of truth. At the very outset, we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot change it. We cannot understand it, we can not think about it and we can not conceptualize it. Unfortunately at this human level, we have to understand that it can not be felt, what is the truth. We have to become something, ‘subtler being’. We have to become the ‘Spirit’. All the religions have said that we have to be ‘ born again’. First as human beings and then as Spirit. Now, these are the special days which I call as ‘blossom time.’ But in our Indian scriptures, it is described as Kalyuga, means the worst times and after that will be followed, Satyuga, ‘the age of truth’.But between these two there is another kind of era working out which we call as Tritayuga. This era or this time is very important because in this era all that has been done wrong will be exposed. All those who have done wrong to others will be punished, and all those who are falsely talking about God will be exposed and punished. At the same time, this era has got a speciality. That is, this ‘all-pervading power of divine love’ will become active and by its activitiy, you will know the truth. Many people will get their realisation through ‘Kundalini awakening’ and they will get their physical, Read More …
Truth is to be known as the evolutionary process on your central nervous system Uniwersytet Warszawski, Warsaw (Poland)
Public Program, Warsaw, Poland, 31 July 1992 I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset, we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot think about it, we cannot conceptualise it and we cannot read about it. At this human awareness, unfortunately we cannot know it. You have to go to a subtler state of becoming a Spirit otherwise you will not know what is the truth. Truth is to be known as the evolutionary process on your central nervous system. It is not mental knowledge. Now, I will tell you what is the truth. You have to keep your mind open like scientists and treat whatever I am saying as a hypothesis and if it is proved, then you have to accept it as honest people, because it is for your benevolence and for the benevolence of the whole world. Now, the truth is that you are not this body, this mind, these conditionings, this ego but you are the pure Spirit. Another truth is that there is an all-pervading Power of divine love which does all the living work. We see these beautiful flowers and we take them for granted. They are a miracle. We see with these eyes: it’s a miracle, it’s a camera. Wonderful. What about this human brain? It’s a computer. All these things we take for granted. Who runs your heart? The doctors say it’s an autonomous nervous system. But who is this ‘auto’? We have to Read More …
You should not accept anything blindfolded Rudolfinum, Prague (Czech Republic)
Public Program. Prague (Czech Republic), 29 July 1992. I bow to all the seekers of truth.At the very outset we have to realize that truth is what it is. We cannot think about it, we cannot conceptualize it, we cannot imagine it. And at this human awareness, this state, we cannot know it. We have to become a subtler being; we have to be the Spirit. So it is important to understand what is the truth. Here I am telling you about something which you should listen to with an open mind of a scientist. And if is true and it works out, then as honest people you have to accept it. You should not accept anything blindfolded. So the first truth is that you have to be the Spirit. Actually you are the Spirit. You have to become the Spirit. And the second truth is that there is All Pervading Power of Divine Love, which does all the living work. We see beautiful flowers and we take them for granted. It’s a miracle. (Little louder. People can’t hear it. Little louder.) It’s a miracle. What about our eyes which is a miracle, it’s a wonderful camera? What about our brain which is a miracle, it’s a computer. (Tell her not to take my photographs while I’m speaking!). But we take everything for granted. Who runs our heart? We say it is autonomous nervous system. But who is this auto? We all have got this divinity absolutely intact within ourselves. Read More …
How to enter into another realm of awareness, which is spirituality? Városháza, Budapest (Hungary)
Public Program. Budapest (Hungary), 28 July 1992. I bow to all the seekers of truth.At the very outset you have to know that truth is what it is. You cannot think about it, you cannot imagine about it, also at human awareness you cannot conceptualize it. Also you cannot understand it through books, because it’s all mental. For that you have to enter into another realm of awareness, which is spirituality. That means you have to become the Spirit. You have been already told about this mechanism that’s within you. But you should not blindfolded believe in it, but keep your mind open like a scientist and treat it like a hypothesis. If it is true, as honest people, you must accept it, because it is for your benevolence and for the benevolence of the whole world. The truth is that you are not this body, mind, this ego or conditionings, but you are the pure Spirit. And the second truth is that there is an All Pervading Power of Divine Love, which does all the living work. We see these beautiful flowers, we take them for granted. It’s a miracle. We see our eyes, which is a wonderful camera, a miracle, this brain, which is a computer. We take everything for granted. Who has created them? Who runs our heart? They say it is autonomous nervous system. But who is this auto? So far we had no self-knowledge. All world problems are because of human beings and all the Read More …
Reality has to be known by ascending to another state of Spirit Hofburg Palace, Vienna (Austria)
Public Program. Vienna (Austria), 27 July 1992. I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot imagine about it, think about it or conceptualize it. Also unfortunately, at this human level we cannot feel it. We have to become a subtler being to feel our subtle being. We have to be the Spirit. Otherwise whatever we think about it is not reality. Reality has to be known by ascending to another state of Spirit. Now, let us know what is the truth. The truth is you are not this body, this mind – this is not your conditionings, nor your ego, emotions, but it is pure Spirit. The second truth is that there is an all-pervading Power of Divine Love, which does all the living work. We see these beautiful flowers – it’s a miracle, but we take it for granted. Look at our eyes, which is a miracle itself – it’s a camera. Look at our brain, which is such a computer. But we take it for granted and do not think about it. Who does this work? Who runs our heart? We call it in medical terminology that autonomous nervous system runs the heart. But who is this auto? All this living work is done by this all-pervading Power of Divine Love. Whatever I’m telling you, you need not take it blindfolded. But you have to keep your mind open like a scientist Read More …
The Age of Aquarius Palais Kaufmännischer Verein, Linz (Austria)
Public Program. ‘Festsaal’ of the Palais Kaufmännischer Verein Landstraße 49/Bismarckstraße 1-3, 4020 Linz, (Austria), 26 July 1992. Shri Mataji: I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot change it, we cannot think about it and we cannot conceptualize it. And at this human awareness we cannot feel it. So to know the reality we have to become a subtler personality, the spiritual personality. That means we have to become the Spirit. Now whatever we are telling you here need not be accepted blindfolded, but should be accepted as a hypothesis, with a open mind like a scientist and if it is proved, then you have to accept it as truth. Because it is for your benevolence and for the benevolence of your country and the whole world. Most of the world problems come from human beings and most of the human problems come from these centers when they are somehow or other disturbed. This is a very special time, I call it the Blossomtime. Some people call it Last Judgment or in the Koran it’s called as Kiyama, means Resurrection Times. Also some call it as Age of Aquarius. According to Indian scriptures these are Kali Yuga. And this scripture says that, “At this time human beings will be very much confused and they will find the reality.” Now every human being is innately born with Divinity within himself, in a potential state. This Read More …
Shri Durga Mahakali Puja: France is going down and down Paris (France)
Shri Durga Mahakali Puja, Paris (France), 25 July 1992. [A little child calls loudly: “Mataji! Jai!”. Shri Mataji smiles, Yogis laugh] Today’s puja we have arranged of Durga or the Kali. That is the destroying form of the Goddess of all the evil and negativity. This we had to do it in France, because I feel very strongly that day by day, in general, France is going down and down and down. While you people are coming up, the rest of the France is in the most pitiable condition. Firstly, as you understand, is the Catholic church, which – perhaps you are not aware of, perhaps maybe – because you don’t read any other languages, you just read French compulsorily by this country. So you have no international views or international news that this Catholic church has done so many horrible things in the past, that it is unbelievable that they have anything to do with God. They burnt many cardinals in the hearth – roasted them. Not only that, they killed so many people who ever tried to utter a word about them. They were much worse than Muslim people. They went to other countries like South America, America – all these places they’re all Catholics – even our country. And they killed millions and millions of people. Now as this is Kruta Yuga that has started, one of the things as I said yesterday is that: you will have to pay for whatever you have done, on mass Read More …
All of you were born with a innate faith of divinity within you Salle Gaveau, Paris (France)
Public Program, Paris Gaveau, France. 24 July 1992. I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot think about it, we cannot conceptualize it. Unfortunately at this human level we cannot feel it, we cannot know it. We have to be the Spirit to know the truth. Whatever I am going to tell you today you have not to believe blindfolded. But as scientists, keep your mind open and treat this as a hypothesis. In case it is proved then as honest people you have to accept it because it is for your benevolence, it is for the benevolence of your country and it is for the benevolence of the whole world. All world problems are due to human beings and all human problems are due to these subtle centers which are within you. When these centers get blocked, then you have physical, mental, emotional as well as spiritual problems. But all of you, believe Me, were born with a innate faith of divinity within you. This innate faith within you was there but it was challenged later on and you got confused. This challenge could have come from various sources. One of them, surprisingly, is coming from religion. Many people who have come to Sahaja Yoga have told Me that they were very much disappointed in their religions because these religions are money-oriented or power-oriented. They are not spirit-oriented. The second challenge comes to Read More …
You have to be honestly seekers of truth Zala Festivalna, Sofia (Bulgaria)
Public Program. Sofia (Bulgaria), 23 July 1992. I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot think about it, we cannot conceptualize it, but you have to experience it. This is the time specially for you to get that state in which you can feel the truth, the reality. These are the most confusing times and in these times only you will find the truth. But you have to be honestly seekers of truth, because it is for your benevolence and for the benevolence of the whole world. We have come up to a state… Sorry…We have come up to a state, which is a human but is not absolute, it’s a relative awareness we have. We do not know what is truth, what is reality. We do not know why are we on this earth. Every human being whatever country he may belong to is born with a faith within himself. This faith is in the Divinity or any such thing which is higher that is above human awareness. All of you have got this Divinity potentially and nothing can change it. It is only clouded because of conditionings. This faith is challenged. There are so many things that challenges the faith. First we go to religions. Then we find that one may follow any religion, they are capable of doing anything wrong, anything sinful. So the religion is also mental. Moreover the religion Read More …
Conversation with Sahaja Yogis around Bucharest, Elisabeta Palace (Romania)
Yogini: We hoped you really like that Shri Mataji. Shri Mataji: So Beautiful. Yogi: Thank you, Mother. Shri Mataji: It’s beautiful. Thank you very much. This cannot be opened out? Inaudible, laughter. Shri Mataji: I see, so this you can bring it. Yogini: Yes. Shri Mataji: This is for yourself? Yogi’s: No, (unclear). Shri Mataji: How much time more? Yogini: Ten minutes after them, ten minutes after them. Another Yogini: Ten! Yogini: So we have to not leave in one hour. Yogini: Less than an hour. Yogini: In half an hour. Yogini: In half an hour we have to leave. (Unclear.)
Arriving at and Visiting the Sahaja Yoga Exhibition Bucharest, National Museum of Romanian History (Romania)
Talk at Sahaja Yoga Exhibition, Bucharest (Romania), 22 July 1992 The talk starts at 00:18:30 Very happy to meet all of you again here. I’m sorry I’m here for a very short time, but I have to travel to many countries. You people are something very unique type of Sahaja Yogis. Everybody is impressed the way you know all the songs by heart and the pronunciations also are so accurate. I hope you understand the meaning of these. To hear the last song – it is recent, very recent. Mr. Costian: It was the top on the Indian tour, Vishwa Vandita. Shri Mataji: Yes, it was. It is written by a blind poet, very famous. [Ravindra Jain] And he has written also, he has composed and written poetry for Ramayana, epic film. It’s a … I can’t understand this man, because he just met Me three times and he has seen such things very deeply about Me that really I was amazed. He has described Me in such a manner that some people have not seen those points which he has seen. I think you have got the complete tape of Vishwavandita. Also you seem very much in tune now. Something remarkable. Now, we have to meditate. You must find some time. Not now. I mean, unless and until you meditate, you cannot grow in Sahaja Yoga. Not only individually, but in collectivity. Then only you grow well. Really, I don’t know how to express My joy after seeing you Read More …
Every human being is born with this potential faith in Divinity Bucharest, Polyvalent Hall (Romania)
Public Program. Bucharest (Romania), 21 July 1992. …It has to happen to you. It’s described in all the Scriptures that you are to be born again and every human being is born with this potential faith in Divinity. Whatever one may try to attack it, it exists there all the time. So, potentially you are all divine and the truth is that you are the Spirit. But gradually how our faith is challenged, in these modern times there are so many ways our faith is challenged. First of all, there are many false prophets called as gurus from every country, specially from India. They have destroyed not only your faith but also possibility of your achieving your ascent. These are the special times, when you are born. This is the time of Last Judgment. You have to keep your mind open like a scientist because this is the time you are going to enter into the Kingdom of God. This is your special privilege. Whatever you might have done, whatever mistakes you might have committed, your spirituality, your divinity is intact. Second attack you can say is from the so-called religions, because these religions are not Spirit-oriented, they are money-oriented or power-oriented. Take any religion, it may be a Hindu, Muslim, Christians, any one, everybody is capable of committing any sin. It has not created those special people who are described as evolved souls. On the contrary, they are all fundamentalists and fighting with each other. They do not want Read More …

Guru Puja: Gravity Campus, Cabella Ligure (Italy)
Guru Puja. Cabella Ligure (Italy), 19 July 1992. Yesterday, you had asked me for the status of a Guru. It’s a state, It is not a status because status is external, can be bestowed upon anyone, and anybody can say that, “This is your status.” For something external merit, or something, you can give a status to a person. It is a state. ‘State’ means the innate being, evolved to that level that you become the master. Of course, you have to be your own master to begin with. No doubt about it. If you are not even your own master then how you can achieve that state? Now as I say it is innate; then one starts thinking, “If it is innate, in a Sahaj way, how do we achieve it?” There are certain faculties which we have to develop to begin with. The first faculty is if we can become thoughtless. In meditation you can become thoughtless for a short time. Gradually this short time should go on increasing – that you are without any thought. This happens also as we can say is a state, but how do we achieve that, again? Because human beings cannot understand that anything can happen spontaneously it has to be done some…something has to be done. For that, in Sahaj, we have something very, very simple, that you have got a mantra as ‘nirvichar’. So now you watch anything saying the mantra, “Twameva sakshat nirvichar,” then you’ll start seeing that, witnessing Read More …
Evening Program Two Plays: Blake Play, The Seekers Eve Of Guru Puja Campus, Cabella Ligure (Italy)
Evening Program, Eve of Guru puja, Cabella Ligure (Italy), 18/07/1992 I have to make a little request to all of you that, this program is hosted by Italians and Germans, so they are the hosts. So allow other people to sit in front, would be better, they are your guests, specially people who are coming from far away, like we have people coming from all the way – like Canada, America. Also this side, we have people from England, also people who are coming from Turkey, India, Hong Kong, Australia; they should be given some better place to sit down. And the ladies who are – especially ladies –who are from Italy and Germany, should move more out a little bit, so they get a better chance to come forward. And of course, the leaders have to be in front no doubt. [Shri Mataji giggles] And also the musicians should be in front. [Yogi takes microphone and announces more countries and individual names to come in front, at Shri Mataji’s request. Program resumes] Babamama: Before we commence the singing, I have a confession to make before you all. As a brother of Shri Mataji, I have known Her for fifty-nine years now, and I can tell you that, this aspect of Her was not known to me till today, or till yesterday, and I was quite taken aback – as a brother – when I saw that She was composing so beautifully, and in chaste Hindustani classical music. And She Read More …
Shri Vishnumaya Puja: She is the daughter of Mahakali Ashram Everbeek, Everbeek (Belgium)
Shri Vishnumaya Puja, Ashram Everbeek (Belgium), 4 July 1992. Talk starts at 17:44 on video It’s a unique opportunity today to do Vishnumaya Puja because She entered into this house [Shri Mataji laughing], we have to worship Her.First we should know who is Vishnumaya. It’s very important to know because in the Devi Mahatmyam She is only described as the Incarnation of the Goddess: “Vishnumaya iti shabdita” [chant 5], She is called as Vishnumaya.But let’s see who is She? After all, this Vishnumaya is who? So Vishnumaya is the Kali, we can say, and is the daughter of Mahakali. She came on this earth and killed many, many devils and many rakshasas to save the saints from their aggression and She always acts in that manner to kill all the negativity of the world. She is very quick at it, I should say, and She knows where is the negativity and She tries to burn that negativity as fast as possible.Now the origin is like this that this Vishnumaya was the daughter of Mahakali who was created by Mahakali Herself to fight these demons, but also She was given special weapons to do this work.But at the time of Shri Krishna She was born as the sister of Shri Krishna, and instead of Shri Krishna being killed by Her uncle, as you know the story is, She was exchanged, She was actually the daughter of Yeshoda, exchanged for Shri Krishna. And this girl, little girl was killed by the uncle Read More …
