Mind is created by our conditionings and our ego Bucharest, Polyvalent Hall (Romania)
Public Program, Bucharest (Romania), 1 July 1996. Arrival at the venue for the Public Program Two lady reporters interview Shri Mataji. Sahaja Yogi translates what the first reporter asks: Reporter: At Your birth it was something happened in the ward or in Your family or in the town You were born? Shri Mataji: I have so many things, so many. I have so many things that happened. Reporter: One example. Shri Mataji: You see, many people had said they saw signs. Also My mother, she saw in her dreams that a Lady in White is coming to save the world. My mother was a very intelligent woman. She was Masters of Mathematics and she was also very, very righteous person. Reporter: If You can tell them about some visionary experience You had, something to be useful for the mankind for our path to the truth. Shri Mataji: When I know everything, what is there to vision? When I know everything there’s no question of vision. Reporter: …some dream, some personal experience from Your childhood, from Your adolescence, from maturity You had – if it’s possible to unveil some visionary experience You had. Shri Mataji: I was never a visionary as such I must say, but I knew My job, I knew My mission from childhood. I was quite aware, Myself. Second Reporter: …about this country, about Romania… Shri Mataji: It’s a very beautiful country, and of such musicians that in India we call them gandharvas, means celestial musicians. Second Reporter: Read More …
Musical Evening Bucharest, Sala Constructorul (Romania)
Musical Evening Speech, Bucharest (Romania), 2 August 1995. We have had such a nice music from our Romanian Sahaja Yogis. There’s some sort of a musical atmosphere in Romania, I think. Because when you all sing also, you sing it in a very melodious tune. Like celestial music, that was sung long time back, I feel has come back to Romania. They used to say, that the music that was appealing to God was done by gandharvas and I find those gandharvas are in Romania only. If Nabhi Chakra is Black Sea and that in Greece Athena lived, then all this area must have been the area that is described as Heaven in India. And must have been the olden days when people of Romania or of Greece must be singing praise of God. It seems that these great gandharvas are born again in your country. Even people who came from India were surprised at the esthetic and the supreme mastery over all kinds of difficult songs by these musicians. Of course, everywhere people sing now Indian songs with great ease but the melodies that you people produce, is not effective by everyone. In Turkey we had invited some people from Hyderabad who were singing quawalli. But when they heard these young boys singing so well, they ran away. I asked: “Where are they gone? I can’t see them.” They said: “They have run away, Mataji. Because it was too much for them to bear that these boys from Romania Read More …
Medical Conference Bucharest, Ecological University of Bucharest (Romania)
Medical Conference, Ecological University of Bucharest (Romania), 2 August 1995. So all the professors, the Vice Chancellor who was so kind to invite Me here to talk to you about something which is very different, I would say in a way, very different from the medical science I have studied. I would not call it different but it is, I would say, it is the basis of our medicine. For example if you want to treat the tree for its sickness and you start applying things from outside it doesn’t work out so well. It may have reactions also. But if you can somehow go to the roots, then the whole tree can be treated. Our medical science now, in the modern times, has become very specialized, to such an extent that you may have a doctor for one eye and another doctor for another eye and there is no synthesis. There’s no treatment to the totality of the human being. This leads to problems and has created many kinds of reactions. So today I’m going to talk to you about the subtle system that is within us. You should not take Me for granted, there should not be any blind faith about it but if it is proved, this hypothesis that I put before you, then as scientists you must keep your minds open and then you can accept it as honest people because it is for the benevolence of yourself, your family, your country and the world at Read More …
Sahaja Yoga is the power of compassion and love of God Almighty Bucharest, Polyvalent Hall (Romania)
Public Program. Bucharest (Romania), 1 August 1995. I bow to all the Sahaja Yogis and all the seekers of truth. It seems Romania is a special place where there are so many seekers of truth. And very deep and truthful they are about it. Sahaja Yoga is the power of compassion and love of God Almighty. But it’s not just talk, just not giving you a lecture or a sermon, but it is actualization of the experience of this Divine Love. It is spirit-oriented, not money-oriented, nor is power-oriented. All the religions have failed outside because they are not Spirit-oriented. Now, of course, they are challenging us and saying all kinds of wrong things about us because they are frightened that they will be exposed. But truth will prevail now. The time has come for truth to prevail. It is surprising that people don’t understand that truth is love and compassion. If you really love somebody, you know everything about that person, that is how the Divine Love is, which knows everything about everything. It is the knowledge that you get when you fall into the ocean of love, an ocean, you fall into the love’s ocean. One has to know that truth is what truth is, you cannot change it, because it is absolute. You cannot transform it, you cannot sell it. You cannot pay for it. It has to be really understood that if you have to know the truth you will know because the time has come, Read More …
Kundalini creates the space between the thoughts Bucharest, Polyvalent Hall (Romania)
Public Program, Bucharest (Romania), 2 September 1994. Please be seated. I bow to all the seekers of truth. At the very outset we have to know that Truth is what it is. You cannot describe it, you cannot transform it and you cannot give a sermon about it. You have to know it on your central nervous system. In Sanskrit the word used is “bodha”, meaning “to be enlightened”. [AGAIN], another word is known as “vidya” from where the word “Vedas” have come. So, you have to know the Truth not mentally, not emotionally, because this will condition you. So, to know on the central nervous system is to become the Spirit. Because you are not this body, this mind, these conditionings, these egos, these emotions. Because you say “my body”, “my emotions”, “my intelligence”, it’s all “my” – who is this “me”? So, the first truth you have to know on your central nervous system [IS] that you are the Spirit.Then we see such beautiful flowers here – it’s a miracle, it’s a miracle. But we take it for granted. If we ask who has created these flowers from a seed, we can’t answer. You’ll say “the Mother Earth”, but it’s a living process. Also, we cannot say who runs our heart. The doctors may say that it’s autonomous nervous system. But who is this “auto”? Who is this Self? That is the Spirit. You have to become the Spirit. This is an actualization of the experience of baptism. Read More …
The one enjoyment in the bliss of God Bucharest, Polyvalent Hall (Romania)
Public Program. Bucharest (Romania), 7 September 1993. 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 and we cannot conceptualize it. It has to be felt, on your central nervous system. As an evolutionary process, whatever we have achieved, we can feel it on our central nervous system. In Sanskrit the word is Bodha. It cannot be understood by mental projections or by reading books. As we know, there are problems and problems in this world today. These problems are caused mostly by human beings. And most of the human problems come from the sick chakras, the centers about which they have told you. If we, somehow, correct those centers, all our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual problems can be solved. Now whatever I’m telling you today, you do not have to accept Me. But you have to keep your minds open like scientists; and treat my saying as hypothesis, and if it is proved then you have to accept it as honest people. Because you’re born in any religion you call yourself belonging to that religion. And whatever our misunderstandings or wrong conceptions which are mental, you start fighting for it. But in every religion it is said that you must get your enlightenment. In every religion it is said that you are to be born again. Despite all that, people are not understanding what’s wrong when they follow a particular religion. Read More …
Diwali Puja Timisoara, Sala Olimpia (Romania)
Diwali Puja. Temisoara (Romania), 25 October 1992. So today we are celebrating the Diwali Puja.I think you all can try to learn English which is a very simple language and would be better. I just want to say that you all can learn English language, it’s not difficult from my tapes. Of course the language of love is universal for it has no script, that’s the problem (Shri Mataji laughs) and no words, and no words.(Translator speaks ed.) Shri Mataji I am sorry, I am so full of emotions, too full of emotions, can’t catch your words you see … everything, all languages in my head, may I ask someone to translate, I feel I can not catch your words.Shri Mataji: No it’ll be all right, come along (Laughter and applause).I don’t know how to express, I am also full of lots of emotions. it’s such a beautiful gathering we have here from all over the world. We are all bound together in such pure love, and Russians also have arrived, luckily, they had to go through some tapasya.The significance of Diwali is spread out in about five days, and they are all together somehow, these five days are all put together. So they have different aspects, but in every aspect there’s one common point is that the Goddess plays the main role. Now the first day is the worship of the housewife where you have to buy some sort of a utensil for the kitchen or for the use Read More …

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?

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 …

Press Conference Bucharest, Sala Palatului (Romania)
Press Conference. Bucharest (Romania), 17 October 1990. [BEGINNING MISSING] …and in our body also everything is controlled. Our nose grows to a certain point, eyes grow to a certain point. So it regulates, organizes. It’s the most efficient organization. Sitting down here you can feel the vibrations of any person whether dead or alive. Because it is the causal of the subtle of ether also and we ourselves become like a computer. Whatever you want to know you can know on your fingertips. Even if you have ten children who are realized souls, you tie up their eyes and ask them,“What’s wrong with this gentleman?” They will say, all of them will say the same finger, this is the finger for it. Now, this finger relates to your this center, on the right hand side. If you ask the gentleman, “Are you suffering from throat trouble?” He’ll say, “Yes, how do you know?” So, it’s a universal truth you know, because Spirit is a universal being within us. And so we develop a personality which is universal. This personality does not record any conditioning of a race, or country, or religion, or anything – transcends. Above all, this all-pervading Power is compassion and loves you, and the Spirit that shines in your attention makes you really dynamic. Every chakra you see here has some specialty. For the second chakra, which we call as Swadishthan, is the chakra for creativity. Many artists who have come to Sahaja Yoga are today world famous. Read More …
The Power of Pure Love Bucharest, Sala Palatului (Romania)
Public Program Day 1. Bucharest (Romania), 16 October 1990. [MISSING FROM THE RECORDED SPEECH]All of you have had it. When the Spirit shines in your attention, the attention becomes very powerful and we have never used the power of love, of pure love. The pure love is like a sap in the tree. And it goes to the various parts of the tree. It nourishes all the parts of the tree. But supposing it gets attached to any flower or any fruit, then the tree will die and the fruit will die. So the pure love nourishes, enlightens and makes you absolutely pure. You enjoy your purity, you enjoy your virtues and a new race comes up which loves. There is no fight, there is no struggle, such a satisfied personality you develop. This attention is so pure that when you put your attention on to anyone with this purity, you can purify other person. You can cure that person, you can give peace to that person, because Spirit is the source of peace. It is the source of joy. It is not a duality of happiness and unhappiness, but singular joy. You become a person who witnesses the whole thing as a drama. When you are moving on the periphery of a wheel, then you feel the movement. And you feel all the disturbances. But if you are on the axis, then you see the movement of the wheel but you are at peace. This is what happens to Read More …
