Shri Ganesha Puja: You are in the war with Me & Departure Frankfurt (Germany)

AuthorLeave a comment

Shri Ganesha Puja, Frankfurt (Germany), 27 September 2002. It’s so nice to come back after such a long time. And whenever I came, you always had gathered in a very big hall. We met, and that’s how the Sahaja Yoga started growing. It’s very important for you people from specially from Germany, Austria. These are the people who were in the war. And now you are in the war with Me. We have to fight, fight the evil. You know how the world is. We have to fight them and we have to take them out of ignorance. You are such a support for this because we have to change human beings. They have to become good people very fast. Once they get their Self-realization, the change will start. Now in England and also in Italy, what they are doing is to give realization to people on the street. Giving on the street, thousands of people now have become realized souls. It’s a very big thing because once you get your realization, you become the Spirit and all the goodness should come to you. If there is anything evil, bad in you that will go away. It’s spreading so fast everywhere and should also spread in those countries who are there. There’s no need, no need for you to fight or quarrel because you have got the divine help. You have got all the help all the help from the Divine, and this is what is to be understood: that Read More …

Public Program, Hamburg, Germany, 15/07/1994 I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset I have to tell you that truth is what it is. You cannot change it. You cannot describe it and you cannot make it compromise. Truth is what it is, what it has been, what it will do. Unfortunately, as human awareness you cannot know the truth. One has to rise to higher awareness to know the truth. In Sanskrit, we use a word called [UNCLEAR Bode?]. [UNCLEAR Bode?] means what you know on your central nervous system. So you have to know it on your central nervous system. Also they use another word, Veda, from where the word Veeda has come. So you have to know it on your central nervous system is the first verse of Vedas. It is not the mental knowledge because human mind is limited. Every mind thinks of its own and everybody creates their own cocoon. And that is how we have all the problems of human beings. Everyone feels that he is right. And thus all the quarrels, the fights, the arguments and God comes in. Truth has to be known on your central nervous system means you have to evolve more. That means your evolution as a human being is not complete. Now whatever I am telling you today, you need not take it blindly. We have had too much problems, in the blind fates. But if it is true, then as honest people you Read More …

1994-0714 Public Program Cologne Germany DP-RAW I bow to all the seekers of Truth. At the very out said I have to tell you that Truth is what it is. You cannot change it; you cannot describe it and you cannot compromise with it. Whatever it is, it has been and it will be. Whatever I have to tell you tonight, you need take me blindfolded. We have had lots of problems with these blind faiths. But whatever I say is proved that as honest people you have to accept it. Because it is for your benevolence. It is for the benevolence of your city, your country and the whole world at large. The first truth is that you are not this body, this mind, these conditionings, this ego, emotions. But you are the pure Spirt. We say, it is my house, it is my car, it is my ego, everything is mine. But who is this mind? This is what we have to find out. The second truth is that you see these flowers, so beautiful. They are all miracles. We take them for granted. Who runs your heart? If you ask the doctor, they will say it is autonomous nervous system. But who is this auto? They have no answer. So, the second truth is that there is a very subtle, powerful all-pervading power of Divine Love. Which does all the living work. Our evolution has been also achieved through that power. So, I am here to tell Read More …

Transcription of 1993-07-23 Public Programme, Berlin, Germany I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. We cannot understand it, we cannot change it and, unfortunately, at this human level, we cannot know it. Whatever I am going to tell you today here, you need not take it blindfold, but you have to keep your mind open like a scientist, and whatever I say is proved, as honest people, you have to accept it because it is for your benevolence, for the benevolence of your country and for the benevolence of the whole world. So, the Truth is that you are not this body, this mind, this ego, these conditionings but you are pure Spirit. And the second truth is that there is a all-pervading divine power of Love which does all the living work. You see beautiful flowers here and you take them for granted, we don’t even think that it’s a miracle! Who runs your heart? The doctors will say it’s an autonomous nervous system. But who is this ‘auto’? Who does all these living works? Who controls the height of these trees and these bushes? So now the time has come for us to know that this power exists and that you can feel it on your central nervous system. So far whatever you have gained in your evolution you feel it on your central nervous system. Say, take a dog or a horse Read More …

We cannot change it, we cannot conceptualise it, at this human state. Whatever I want to tell you today, you are not to accept it blindfolded, but you should have an open mind of a scientist and if it works, then you have to accept, as honest people, because it is for the benevolence of every Individual and for the benevolence of your country and for the benevolence of the whole world. These are special times when we are born. I call it as a blossom time, where many seekers of truth are born, but they have to know first of all, what is the truth. First thing is that you are not this body, this mind, this intelligence, this ego, these conditionings, but you are the pure spirit. The second truth is that there is a subtle, all-pervading power of divine love and this power does all the living work. We see these beautiful flowers and we take them for granted.

Shri Ganesha Puja: Powers of Shri Ganesha Berlin (Germany)

Author1 Comment

Shri Ganesha Puja. Berlin (Germany), 21 July 1993. Today we are going to worship Shri Ganesha.  As you know, in the whole of Europe, America, England, they have lost faith in Shri Ganesh. Nor do they care for His powers and for His blessings. As a result, all His blessings are not on these countries. The first blessing of Shri Ganesha, which I think is the highest, is the wisdom: that we learn what is good for us and what is bad for us, what is constructive and what is destructive, what should we do to achieve our Self-Realization. Those people who have got wisdom are very lucky people. But wisdom comes from no source but your own understanding of life. When a person starts thinking, “Why am I doing such and such thing? What is the effect of my doing? What is the result of my behaviour? Is it good for me or bad for me?” then wisdom comes in.  Even if some people know that this is bad for them, still they do not have power to control themselves. Still they do lots of bad things which they should not do. The reason is, the power of wisdom is not there. A person who is wise does not only know what is right and wrong, but also he knows very well his own power not to do something wrong. He just does not do it.  Wisdom is a complete power within ourselves by which we try nothing: it Read More …

We cannot transform it and we cannot conceptualise it at this human awareness. That’s why it is said that you are to be born again. In sanskrit language a realised soul is call as a [bija]?

1991 – 0815_Public Program_Berlin_Germany I bow to all the seekers of Truth.  At the very outset, I have to say that truth is what it is. Truth cannot be conceptualized. By thinking you cannot reach truth. By reading you cannot reach truth. By any physical, mental, emotional efforts you cannot reach truth. Unfortunately, you cannot also know the truth at this human awareness. Something is missing in our lives, in our human awareness that we do not know the absolute truth. That is why we have different opinions, different ideas and ideology. If truth is one then there should be no quarrel about it. So that missing point is that, we still have to evolve more. That we have to become the Spirit. Whatever I am telling you today here should be treated as hypothesis with an opinion mind of a scientist. You need not believe [UNCLEAR]. But if you experience it, and if you find it that it is true as honest people the seekers of truth, you have to accept it. The fundamental truth about you is, that you are not this body, not this mind, not this ego, not these conditionings. But you are the pure Spirit. You are all, all of you are pure Spirits. All of you have got the divinity within yourself. Only you have to touch that divinity. The second truth is that there is a All-pervading power. Power of Divine love.

Adi Kundalini Puja: The Power Of Pure Desire Weilburg (Germany)

Author1 Comment

Shri Adi Kundalini Puja, Weilburg (Germany), 11 August 1991. Today we have gathered here to do the puja of Adi Kundalini as well as your own Kundalini. First of all, I think this is the most important thing to understand about your own Kundalini, as Self-Realisation is Self-Knowledge. And the one who gives you Self-Knowledge is this, your own Kundalini, because when She rises She points it out what are the problems on your chakras. Now, we say that it is pure desire, but we do not know what purity means. It means your chaste desire. It means it has no lust, greed, anything in it. That power is your own Mother and is settled in your triangular bone. She’s your own mother. She knows everything about you, it’s like a tape recorder. She knows everything about you and She is absolutely the knowledge – because She’s so pure. And whatever chakras She touches, She also knows what’s wrong with that chakra – beforehand. So She’s quite prepared, and She adjusts Herself fully so that you do not get a problem by Her awakening. If any chakra is constricted, She waits and goes on slowly opening that chakra. Now, this Kundalini is the primordial power which is reflected within you. And within you, in a human being it is like many strands of energy. So it’s like a rope and these energies are all twisted together to form this Kundalini. In a human being these strands are three into seven Read More …

Shri Hanumana Puja. Frankfurt (Germany), 31 August 1990. You can sit here also, some of you, it’s good… I think you can come here, there is room. Some of you can move here so that they can also come here, so it won’t be a problem. You sit in front here. They are better, you see. Good. Open this door, would be all right. It’s all right, you can open the door if you like. It’s all right. Better open – these doors cannot be opened? They don’t open? Oh, my God! You need a tall person. You need Hanumana! Take His name and He’ll open! Keep a chair in front of that. Today we have come here to do Hanumana’s Puja. Shri Hanumana is a great character in our being and He runs all the way from Swadishthana to your brain and He supplies all the necessary guidance we need in our futuristic planning or in our mental activities. He gives us guidance and protection. As you know that Germany is a place where people are very active, very right-sided, use their brain too much and they are very machine-oriented also. It is very surprising how a deity like Shri Hanumana, who is an eternal child, because He was like a monkey. His head was that of a monkey, if not of an elephant. So He was an eternal child and He was the one who was used to run the right side of human beings. He was told Read More …

1990 – 08 – 29; Public Program, Frankfurt Germany 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, organise it, or describe it. Unless and until you know it, whatever one may say about the truth, one need not accept. Then another difficulty is that at human awareness we cannot know the truth. It is only knowledgeable once we reach a higher state of self-realisation. At the human awareness, as we come, we do not (unclear) truth. If you had truth, then there would have been no problems. We all would have felt the same way if it was the absolute truth. Like you see a candle for example, or the (unclear) here. All of you can see. It is so. There are all the (unclear).  So something has to happen to human beings, by which they have to know the absolute truth. We see so many problems around us. Say for example ecological problems, political problems. Because we do not know how to behave with each other. We are here and we are all sitting together, and we don’t know (unclear). And so all these complications come in.  For example we do not know how we relate to materialism. Simple things is that machines are for us, we are not for machines. Now in the beginning when we started making machines we went out of bounds, without any knowledge of Read More …

Paramchaitanya Puja. Taufkirchen (Germany), 19 July 1989. [(A noise is made by the loudspeaker. Babies start crying.) Shri Mataji: I think better take the children out for a while. Just it would be better. Hello, hello, hello! I think better take them out for a while. They didn’t like. Stops. (Babies suddenly stop crying. Laughter. Shri Mataji laughs)] A question was asked to Me, “What puja we are going to have today?” and I kept it a secret. Today we should worship the Paramachaitanya, the all-pervading Power of God’s love. We are aware that Paramachaitanya does everything. At least mentally we know that everything is worked out by the grace of Paramachaitanya, which is the power of the Adi Shakti. But still it is not so much in our heart, so much in our attention. We can consider Paramachaitanya like a ocean, like a ocean which contains everything within itself. Everything, all the working, everything is within its own limits. So it cannot be compared with anyone thing. You cannot compare it. Now if you see the sun, then from the sun the rays have to come out to work it. If you see somebody, say, a person who has an authority, he has to assert that power outside. So within himself he doesn’t work it out. Say, for example, if there’s a seed and inside the seed only, the tree grows and the fruits come out, and then they are sold and people eat it; and everything is inside Read More …

It is what it is. So one has to open the mind like a scientist to see for yourself what is the truth.  Now whatever I am telling you, you may not believe into. You have to take it as a hypothesis, and then if you get the experience of self-knowledge and you see for yourself, you’ll be amazed.  You know about yourself.  It is wrong to say that you are sinners, and it is very wrong to make you feel guilty. St Thomas who was a disciple of Christ on his way to India, went to Egypt and there he put lots of treaties in a big jar hidden near a mountain. It was discovered only forty eight years back, where he has clearly said that you are here to enjoy the beauty of God’s love and you have to know yourself. After that you will enjoy your complete freedom. Whatever he has said is what Sahaja Yoga is. Here you have to know that you are at the epitome of evolution.

How Spiritual Transformation Takes Place? Frankfurt (Germany)

1988-0713 Public Program, Frankfurt, Germany I bow to all the seekers of Truth. Human beings start seeking in the beginning they were seeking protection, security and then once the society started, they started seeking money. Some of them started seeking power. That is how we have developed two types of political institutions we will call as democracy and also as communism. But when they reached certain state of satisfaction or frustration, they started seeking something else. And they did not know what they were seeking but they were trying to seek the Truth. Seekers of Truth are a special category of human beings. They may not be very successful in life. They may not be very rich; they need not be very religious but inside them there was a great urge to seek the Truth. Also, the knowledge that we have out of our science and other enterprises is the knowledge of the tree. But we did not have the knowledge of the roots. So, they wanted to find out where are the roots. If you read certain newspapers and certain account of day-to-day happenings in modern times, you every day gets a shock, and you don’t understand how you go into terrible tensions and pressures of life. All these things end up into all kinds of physical, mental, emotional problems. And when we try to find out in the spiritual area the solutions for them unclear() even worst because the people who are talking about spirituality are themselves dishonest. Read More …

Public Program Day 2, Munich, Germany, 12 July 1988 (Yogi talks in German)I bow to all the seekers of truth.As I told you yesterday, that truth is what it is and we have to keep our mind open as scientists to see what is the truth. We cannot organize the truth, and we cannot change the truth, and we cannot ourselves create the truth. So what we can do is to know the truth, to become the truth, and to enjoy the truth.It’s very abstract if I talk of truth. But how do we know truth normally? Is through our sense organs. Like, you see all these flowers, and you see through your eyes these are flowers, and you know it is the flowers. Anything that you hear, all of you hear the same thing, and you know that’s what is the truth what you are hearing.Now, you can feel something hot or cold with your fingertips. And whatever you can feel with your fingertips is the truth that you know. But in darkness, if you are holding the snake in your hand and somebody says, “You are holding the snake,” you can always say that “No, I believe it’s a rope, it’s not the snake.”So, to know that, you have to have the light.In human evolution, we have known many more things than the animals have known.

Public Program Day 1 (Sahaja Yogi talks in German) I bow to all the seekers of truth. It is important for all of us to know that we do not know absolute truth. One person says something, another person says something, and we don’t know where to look. We don’t know whom to believe and whom to understand. Also, whatever I’m telling you, you need not take Me for granted. But keep your minds open, as scientists. In case what I say is proved, then you have to accept it as law, not because I say this is so, this is so. Now, you have heard about the chakras that are within us and the centers that govern us. Now, this knowledge is the knowledge of the roots. This instrument has come out of the knowledge of the tree. But there is another instrument within us about which you have already heard. Then one may ask: If there is such an instrument within us, why do we commit mistakes, why do we have collective mistakes also? And why it is that we all do not have understand absolute truth? And why there are so many different ideas and theories in this world? And why do we have this instrument within all of us? But this instrument, which is within us, is not connected to the mains.

Shri Hamsa Swamini puja and two talks Grafenaschau (Germany)

AuthorLeave a comment

Shri Hamsa Swamini Puja, Grafenaschau (Germany), 10 July 1988. Today we have decided to have a Hamsa Puja in Germany. We have never yet paid much attention to this center of Hamsa, which is, I think, very important for the Western world, rather than for the Indian or the Eastern. The reason is, at the Hamsa chakra, part of the Ida and Pingala come out and manifest – means the expression of Ida and Pingala is given through the Hamsa chakra. So this Hamsa chakra is the one that, as if has not gone up to the Agnya, but is holding on certain threads or certain parts of the Ida and Pingala. And they start flowing through your nose, expressing through your eyes, from your mouth and from your forehead. So you know that Vishuddhi chakra has got sixteen petals which look after the eyes, nose, throat, tongue, teeth. But the expression part of it comes through the Hamsa chakra, of all these. So it’s a very, very important thing in a Western mind, to understand Hamsa chakra. There’s a beautiful couplet about this in Sanskrit, ““Hamsah shvetah, bakah shvetah. kah bhedah hamsa bakayo? Nira-kshira viveketu. Hamsah hamsah, bakah bakah.” Meaning ‘The crane and the swan, both are white. And what makes a difference between the two? If you mix the water and the milk together the hamsa (swan) will just suck in the milk. So it can discriminate between the water and the milk while the bakha, means the crane, cannot’.

It’s hard to say anything any more about it. I didn’t know that such a great artist was there, I never heard him before. It’s My luck today that I’ve been able to hear him and such a great artist on table. It’s thanks to you that I could hear all this, they never get a chance to listen to such divine music. It’s so beautiful and the ripples after ripples you could see how it was moving. I’m sorry I had to stop you from clapping, because that would have disturbed the ripples a little bit, I thought. But still it is to be understood that, Indian music comes from the source which we call as OM. It’s a divine source and all made congenial to the tuning of the Spirit. Because of that, you all are feeling that joy within yourself. This joy that is created within yourself, maybe, that many musicians may not feel it. If they haven’t felt their Spirit. It’s for the saints to listen to this music. And for this great artists, I am creating saints here, that they should appreciate this great music of India.

I was told that we have a very beautiful place for this puja and I was amazed how everything is working out so beautifully for all of you. You are all very lucky people I must say. Moreover that this place was called as the “fort of flowers” and now it was called as a “fort of blood”, bloody fort. But I think with all these flowers it should become the “fort of flowers” again. It’s a very, very beautiful place you have come to. The vibrations are also very good here. I’ve been always wondering why Germany was called as Germany. Germ, germ means sprouting. Any germ of anything means the sprouting of it. Germinate means to sprout. The sprouting of Sahaja Yoga as I’ve told you many a times before once taken by Germans will be reaching its epitome, its highest point. We have had lots of ups and downs, doesn’t matter. It’s a difficult place and now we have started really the germination in a proper way. Yesterday I saw the whole sky was filled with color and light. As you know that vibrations have light. It’s very light flickering, very small light, each particle of vibration has and you can see that. But when there are too many, then they can be caught up by your cameras. But yesterday I think the clouds got vibrated. And is a very great thing to get the clouds vibrated. If Read More …

Public Program, Germany, Munich, 1987-10-16 I bow to all the seekers of truth. It is important for us to understand that the time has come for humanity to know the truth. But truth cannot be known by human efforts nor can it be known if you pay for it, nor can it be a concept, an idea. Truth is what it is. And one has to humble down to see the truth itself. As you can see me clearly standing here and also you can also feel me and hear me in the same way you should be able to feel truth on your central nervous system. At the very outset I have said that you cannot pay for finding out the truth. There are many people in the market who are selling the truth and people are doing this shopping. I have t tell you that I am not for sale. I have come here to give you the key to your truth. Which is I think for me is very important. There is no obligation involved. Now when we come face to face with it, let us understand that human awareness has not reached its absolute point. That is why there is so much of confusion. Some people say this theory is good, that philosophy is good, this is good that is bad. But what we have found so far that everything seems to be in confusion.

There is just still a relatively little group and that all our desire goes that Your mission will have success and there will be lots people from now on. Thank You. I bow to all the seekers of Truth. Now, we have to realise that Truth is what it is. We cannot have a concept; we cannot put it in a mental projection. It has to be felt on your central nervous system. As you see flowers and know these are flowers, and feel them, in the same way you must feel the Truth. If I say that there is all-pervading power of Truth and Love around us, you should be able to feel it on your fingertips and to know this Truth, you have become a human being. That is the purpose of your life, not to be wasted on useless things and wrong seeking. Now, when we understand our evolution, we also understand that it has come to us through a living process.

Very young people died, very, very young. All their desires were not fulfilled, all their life gave them nothing but war. That was a kind of a heat wave that came, destroying all the subtler things. When the nature gets its respite, or is angry, it destroys only gross things but when human beings start destroying, they destroy even the subtler things like your value system, your character, your chastity, your innocence, your forbearance.So now the war is on the subtler level. We have to now understand that all these things have brought such a shattering effect in the West, on the Western personality. So the first effort one has to do is to repair it, to put it straight, make it stand on its own legs. Because people lost their personality, their tradition, they had no moorings, no roots. And they started moving towards anything that was brought in as some Read More …

What happens if our human awareness moves to the left or to the right? thumbnail

What happens if our human awareness moves to the left or to the right? Munich, Deutsches Museum (Germany)

AuthorLeave a comment

Public Porgram, day 2, Munich, Germany, 12-07-1986 I bow to all the seekers of Truth. Yesterday, I told you that Truth is to be discovered on your Central Nervous system through the evolutionary process not through some imaginary mental projections and to believe into something because somebody is telling you in a very convincing manner. Even, you have not to believe Me, what I tell you. As I said yesterday, you have to treat it like a hypothesis and with an open mind of a scientist to discover the Truth yourself. It is your lookout that you have to be convinced; I am not here to convince you or to persuade you to believe into something because even if you believe in Me, believe in what I say, if you do not get the experience of Self-realization, it is of no value.  Now today, as I told you yesterday, how the human awareness, which has got it’s roots in the brain, starts growing downward and takes us to our destruction in every center and unless and until we get the ascent, we, our human awareness can never take us to that place where we say that this is the Self, the Spirit. So, every human effort to experience new things or to try new things is nothing but amounts to a ego trip is not reality. Now today, I would like to tell you what happens if our human awareness moves to the left or to the right. Now in Read More …

Yoga – a living process Munich, Deutsches Museum (Germany)

1986-07-11 Yoga – a living process, Munich, Germany I bow to all the seekers of truth. The truth is what you know on your central nervous system. I see you all here, I see your faces and I know you are here. That’s the truth. I see the red colour with My own eyes, I see the another colour there [Shri Mataji points at an object in the hall] with My own eyes and I know on My central nervous system what is the truth. In the same way, you have to know the truth on your central nervous system. It should not be some imaginary thing; it should not be some sort of a concept. It should not be any theories put forward. It cannot be some sort of a experience as they call it. But it should be known through your central nervous system, and you should know all about it. If Self Realization or yoga has to work out, it has to be as clear as sunshine. It should not be just something that will please your ego or pamper your superego. You cannot pay for it. It’s not commercial, cannot be. It is very absurd that you expect it to be commercial. How much money do you pay to call it red when it is red? It is as absurd as that. And then you cannot put in any effort for it because it is spontaneous. It is a living process. How much will you pay Read More …

Habit comes to you from matter thumbnail

Habit comes to you from matter Munich, Deutsches Museum (Germany)

Author1 Comment

Second Public Program, Munich (Germany), 9 May 1985. I’m sorry for being late today because I’ve just seen some other people. I bow to all the seekers of truth. Now the truth is that we are the Spirit. The Spirit resides in the heart and is the witness of what we do. It does not interfere with our everyday activity, and it is like a flicker of light, but it does not shine in the attention. It is the reflection of the absolute in our heart. And the Kundalini, which I described to you yesterday, which is the pure desire of ascent, is the reflection of the Divine desire within us. And this desire is to be one with the Spirit. In our course of life, we pass through many desires. We seek protection, we seek food at the primitive stage. As we grow, we seek possession and wealth, we seek power. But ultimately we reach a point where we discover that it was a joyless pursuit, because Spirit is the source of joy, which is eternal emitting joy. If somehow it comes into our attention, we can feel the joy on our central nervous system. Now we have to know one thing about ourselves in modern times: that we have passed through various stages of seeking before. We have done all kinds of seekings before. And now the time has come for us to get the reward of our seeking. There is no more seeking needed. We must learn Read More …

First Public Program. Deutsches Museum, Munich (Germany), 8 May 1985. I bow to all the seekers of truth. But the seekers of truth have to know the truth, at least they should know what they have to seek. It is to be understood that the seeking has to be in the tradition of the seeking. Like when electricity was discovered, it took years together for people to find it out, and a scientist had to go from one to another – the experience of one, the indications of one, and the futuristic ideas of the one were picked up and he started on that tradition, on that basis his own evolution as far as the electrical knowledge is concerned. In the same way we must understand that there have been people who have been seeking for ages. As in the West, you have grown so much outward, like the tree which has grown outside, there have been people in India, they have been going to the roots of this tree. So this is the knowledge of the roots. If the tree grows too much and the roots do not reach its source, then we are waiting for a shock of complete destruction. So today on such an important date, of the anniversary of the end of the War II, I think it is important for us to go to find out what are our roots. Any person who is aware in these modern times, who is intelligent, can see that Read More …

Shri Mahalakshmi Puja: She connects you to God thumbnail

Shri Mahalakshmi Puja: She connects you to God Munich (Germany)

AuthorLeave a comment

Shri Mahalakshmi Puja. Munich (Germany), 8 September 1984 Today is a great day of Mahalakshmi Puja. Mahalakshmi is an incarnation of the Lakshmi, the power of Vishnu. She only incar­nated. This Mahalakshmi principle is born out of the Lakshmi, who is the power of Sri Vishnu. When in a human being the desire to rise higher comes in, the Lakshmi principle becomes the Mahalakshmi principle. Like in the West, we can say, people have affluence of Lakshmi, so they wanted to rise above that principle and become Mahalakshmi. In the awareness it acts on the matter like aesthetics. People worry more about aesthetics than about possessions. And when they start growing higher and higher in their awareness of seeking, then they find that the attention should be such, that they should pay more im­portance to the aesthetics of things than to the gross values. Now when this desire becomes evident in human beings, then only Lakshmi incarnates as Mahalakshmi. So, she incarnated as Mahalakshmi when Rama came on this earth, first time. And also, she incarnated as Radha when Shri Krishna came on this earth. And when she came as Mary, it was Mahalakshmi who bore the child that is Lord Jesus Christ. So, the child she bore was the great personality of Mahavishnu. This Mahavishnu tattwa is also represented, or we can say, has an aspect of others which in­carnated on this earth as two children of Sita. They incarnated as Mahavira and Buddha, as Hassan and Hussein. Also, Read More …

Whatever we think is truth, may not be the truth Munich (Germany)

Public Program. Munich (Germany), 7 September 1984. I bow to all the seekers of truth. But we must know what is the truth. Whatever we think is truth, may not be the truth. Whatever we know through our mental projection or emotional projection may not be the truth. But if truth has to be known it has to be known through our living evolutionary process. It should be known on our central nervous system. Like in the evolutionary state we have achieved everything and is felt on our central nervous system. Truth is meant only for honest seekers and those who are courageous enough to take up truth upon themselves. As human beings, we have many conditionings and we have lot of ego within us. And when one start talking about truth and people want it exactly be, to be, the way they know it. But truth is not mental observation or understanding, but it is an experience of your being itself, and that is what we all should seek. Now whatever I am going to tell you, or Gregoire has told you about, is the knowledge of the roots. And as scientist you must keep your mind open. And if it is proved, then you have to accept the truth. But you should not just deny it, because so far you have not known it. Now when we move with this idea we have to know that the West had such a development. All over, people are affluent, and Read More …

Conversation, These Are the Days of Confusion [Missing part] Shri Mataji: [Fraud] he is? Sahaja Yogi: Very, very, very, very. Sahaja Yogis: Devil. Devil. Shri Mataji: Devas. Sahaja Yogi: Devil. Shri Mataji: Oh, devil. He is a devil himself. Why should you work with him? He’s, he is Ravana, who had said to Sita that, “I’ll molest the chastity of women of India.” But he could not do it much. Sahaja Yogi: No. Sahaja Yogini: Mother, has the second one got the powers of Ravana as well? Shri Mataji: Aaaa? Sahaja Yogini: Has this second one got the powers of Ravana, or one of Ravana’s brothers he is? Shri Mataji: What’s it? Sahaja Yogini: The second. Sahaja Yogi: Rajneesh. Sahaja Yogini: Rajneesh. Has he got the power? Shri Mataji: I don’t know. These are stories I am telling you. I don’t know. I’m not bothered. Sahaja Yogini: Mother, as well is [one of] printed matter in India. One of Your disciples collected anything printed out [unclear]? Shri Mataji: No, I can ask. I can ask. So I am able to tell you all these things. Hmmm. See now, the story about him, another story, seem to be many stories. Another story they said is that Rajneesh was never shaved since he was a diabetic patient. And as a diabetic patient he used to eat a lot. That’s good. He got a neck problem, was not very seriously sick. But they took a certificate from a doctor saying that he’s very Read More …

The history of seeking the truth thumbnail

The history of seeking the truth Freiburg (Germany)

Author2 Comments

Public Program I bow to all the seekers of truth, first of all. The seeking of truth has been going on, on this earth for thousands of years. All over the world, you can find out, there have been people who have been trying to seek the truth. What is the truth they want to seek? They wanted to know the meaning of this human life, the purpose of this human life and the future of this life. The reason is they were not satisfied with whatever level of awareness they had as human beings and they thought there had to be another one where they will find the absolute. So to find the absolute means, .. your being has been there for thousands of years all around the whole world. With the study of this seeking one can understand that people were very earnest about that seeking in those days. But this study just tells us of very few people who were seeking, and very few discovered it. In the time when Rama was living in India, his father in law was known Rajajanka, to be a great master. It is 8000 years back. I won’t be able to tell you the history of German seeking when they started their seeking. At that time a boy called Nachiketa came to Raja Janaka to say that you are the one who can give me self knowledge and my Guru has sent me to you, and you have to give me Read More …
