Christmas Puja: Conditionings and Ego Ganapatipule (India)

Christmas Puja, Ganapatipule (India), 25 December 1995. Happy Christmas to all of you. It is a great day when Christ came on this Earth and you know about how He was specially created to come down as a human being to work out the salvation of the people. It is said that He came to India, in Kashmir, and He met there the King Shalivahana. It’s all in Sanskrit, I’ve read that the conversation took place between Christ and King Shalivahana who was a great devotee of the Mother. Then he asked him, “What is your name?” In Sanskrit it’s all written. So He said, “I come from a country where people believe in filth and I think this is My own country.” So Shalivahana said, “You are such a great person who has come on this Earth, so you should go back to those countries to save them and to tell them about the pure principle of life.” In Sanskrit it was written “Nirmala Tattwam” (pure principle). And Christ went back and after three and a half years only, He was crucified. These were special days. I call them the days of tapasya. Same time Buddha and Mahavira were born at the same level of the Virata’s forehead. As you know that, according to Vedas, there are seven awarenesses we can go through or the subtle qualities we have within ourselves. The first one was the bhuh. Bhuh is Ganesha was created. Second is bhurvah, meaning ‘antariksha’, means all Read More …

Devi Puja: You all have to help Me Brahmapuri (India)

Puja Talk, Brahmapuri (India), 20 December 1988. Translation from Marathi – MISSING English Transcript Place, which we call as Brahmapuri here called, perhaps, may be because here Shri Ramadasa, the guru of Shivaji Maharaj, in these deep waters found the statue of Shri Rama, Sita, Lakshmana and Hanumana together. Then they were carried from here and put in a temple called Chapar, the place where I saw that also. And there we have Hanumanas. Eleven Hanumanas came out of the Mother Earth to say that he was the incarnation of Hanumana. Also at Chapar, there was a Hanuman like that. And then people wanted to build a temple, very rich man from Bombay, Mafatlal & Company, they wanted to turn the face of Hanumana according to the architect’s idea. So, they went on digging, digging, digging, went about they say so one thousand feet, I don’t know, it must be a big effort. But they could not find the end of that stone. It was just going on and on and on and they didn’t understand how it is so long as that and it has just exactly the size of the statue of Shri Hanumana has come up. So the story is like this here about the incarnations and the different swayambus, where they say that they were created by themselves. It’s mostly about Ganesha also is like this: that there is a bhakta who gets his realization, the one who asks for God’s grace gets his realization like Read More …

Christmas And Its Relationship To Lord Jesus Caxton Hall, London (England)

Christmas And Its Relationship To Lord Jesus, Caxton Hall, LONDON (UK), 10 December 1979. …this day for us to remember that Christ was born on this earth. As a human being, He came on this earth. And the task that was before Him was to enlighten human awareness with the sense of understanding, but we can say it is actualization, within the awareness of human beings, that they are not this body but they are the spirit. The message of Christ is His resurrection. That is you are your spirit an’ not your body. And He showed by His resurrection, how He ascended into the realm of spirit – which He was, because He was Pranava, He was Brahma, He was Mahavishnu – as I have told you about His birth. And when He came on this earth, in a body, like a human being, He wanted to show another thing that spirit has nothing to do with money, has nothing to do with power. It is all powerful, all pervading, but He’s born in a stable, not in a palace or to a king but He was born to a very ordinary person, a carpenter. Because if you are the king, as we say in Hindi language, Badshah then nothing is greater than you, isn’t it? It means simply that. Nothing is higher than you, neither anything can decorate you, because whatever you are, you are at the highest. All the worldly things so called, are just like dry Read More …
