Kundalini: The Feminine Divine Power is within you Royal Albert Hall, London (England)

1994-0605 Public Program Royal Albert Hall, London UK – H.H Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Hello! [Taps mic]  Alright? “I bow to all the seekers of truth” At the very outset we have to know that truth is what it is. You cannot change it, you cannot describe it and you cannot say you know the truth. Unless and until you now it, it is not truth. It is a very big problem that people believe they know the truth, they know the truth which they have understood through their mental capacity, but if [Shri Mataji clears throat] the truth was known to everyone there would be no problems, no quarrels, no discussions no arguments and no wars! We have to know the absolute truth, when we know the absolute truth there is no question of getting into discussion or taking another point of view. I am sitting her before you, you all know I am sitting before you, nobody can say I am not sitting before you because you can see it, but the absolute truth is to be felt on your central nervous system. [Shri Mataji clears throat] This knowledge has been known in our country, in your country and every country – but by very few people. The knowledge, which is earned through your evolutionary process, is the knowledge. When you evolve to a human state you have not yet completed your evolution is visible the way you are fighting, quarreling and behaving in the worst manner that Read More …

Until you know about the chakras you cannot know yourself Christchurch (New Zealand)

Public Program, Christchurch (New Zealand), 26 February 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, we cannot transform it and we cannot know the absolute truth at this human awareness. So we have to become something subtler. As Christ has said you are to be born again. Doesn’t mean we can brand ourselves as born again but is a happening of becoming something else than what you are. And that something else is the Spirit. So whatever we are going to tell you today about this mechanism within you and the way you reveal the truth, you should not accept it with blind faith but as scientists keep your mind open. Take it as a hypothesis. If you think it is all right when you have experimented with it and you have experimented, and whatever I say comes true, then as honest people you have to accept it, because this is for your benevolence, for the benevolence of your country, and the whole universe at large. It is to be understood that we are created as human beings from amoeba to this stage; it’s not the ultimate. If it was there would have been all these problems not created by us. Start from ecology, to political, to economic, to all these problems; are the creation of human beings. So we have missed some point somewhere that’s what we have to find Read More …

Going from Swaha to Swadha Brompton Square House, London (England)

“Going from Swaha to Swadha,” Shri Mataji’s residence, 48 Brompton Square, London (England), 3 March 1986. This was the last thing I used in my lectures, in Delhi; that Shri Krishna has said that the human awareness goes downward and the roots of the human awareness are in the brain. And when human beings start going downward they move in the opposite direction of the Divine. That’s all He has said. He’s not said more than that.  Now see, what happens [is] that you are born in the Bhavasagara, at that time. Now, when the human awareness starts growing, what is the essence of Bhavasagara is swaha and the aim is swadha.  Swaha means consumption: consumption of all the poisons, consumption of everything.  And swadha is the one [which] means: the swa is the Spirit and dha means the one that sustains. So the dharma of Spirit when it comes into you, then you become a guru. So in the Bhavasagara it is swaha and swadha. So from swaha you have to move to swadha. If you come to swadha state then the Mahalakshmi is awakened within you and you start rising higher. So it is called as ‘urdhvagati’ ( ऊर्ध्वगति) : going to the ascent side.  The descent side is called as ‘adhogati’ (अधोगति). Now adhogati starts because to go down is very easy, first of all. Secondly when you are on the steps, on top, you see the steps very nice, done with nice platforms to go down, Read More …

Makar Sankranti Puja: a little advice about the growth within yourself Rahuri (India)

Sankranti Puja (English and Marathi). Rahuri, Maharashtra, India, 14 January 1986. English Transcript – First video Please be sited. Today is a sad day for you people, we’ll be now parting. I may not be able to meet you in Bombay. Maybe for a year this may not happen for some of you, and I would like to give you a little advice about the growth within yourself. It is believed by people that God is helping us and we are in His kingdom. So whatever happens He looks after us. It is true But as you are the instrument of the God you have to also look after yourself. For today’s delay I would like to apologize but the delay comes because from Poona Mr. Kulkarni was to come and see us do this puja. Now I told him- he’s come now- that his wife is a negative lady, and he doesn’t understand his own importance, I would say. As a leader you must understand your importance. And another person who came, he asked, “Why don’t you come with me?” He said, “I have to come with my wife.” And that’s how this delay has taken place because he’s not here. He said he’ll come for puja so the main thing was first to arrive here in time without a negative force pulling him. So we conclude that it is important that first of all we should know that in any way we should not try to have any Read More …

Two powers within Rome (Italy)

From 30:27sec Shri Mataji speaks Shri Mataji:  I bow to all the seekers of truth. As I said yesterday the seekers of truth are a special category of people in the evolutionary process of human beings. Those who are seeking reality see clearly that whatever we have known so far is not the reality, but whatever is unknown is not reality also. Human beings have been made especially with great care, delicately to ascent to the highest state of the spirit and there are many things which are kept away absolutely from their awareness just to keep them peaceful.  For example, we do not know about our subconscious and about collective subconscious, also we do not know about Supra conscious area and the collective Supra conscious. They are manifested within us by two powers, as you see – one the power of Desire on the left hand side and one by the power of action on the right hand side.  The left hand side, which caters to our subconscious, manifests the emotions within us and all the conditioning that people talk about and beyond the subconscious lies the collective subconscious. On the right hand side of ours is manifested our futures, which is the Supra conscious mind and the right side channel what we call as the channel for action manifest the Supra conscious, beyond that lies the collective supra conscious, but the super consciousness is on the top of our head where we have to ascent, we are not Read More …

So the people who are born here, must be people of great achievements and of great punyas. [Shri Mataji laughs]And to add to all the glory of this place, today is the day of our independence, the Republic day of India.Today the occasion is so great that on this day I should be worshipped because the essence of all the manifestation, all the material worlds of the world is India. India is the essence, the rest of it is all the manifestation of the essence.So, to celebrate the Independence of this country itself is great fortune of many people today, that they should worship me on this day. It’s a very deep rooted country, deep rooted into its traditions and its understanding of life. It’s one of the most ancient country where people have been searching the truth since long.The roots of all philosophies were born in this country That’s why most of the Incarnations took their birth in this country. Or ended up their life here like Moses and Christ. On spiritual life, I would say that time has taken its stone, we have had all kinds of sufferings and dominations because of the spiritual understanding and bearing power we have. That’s representative of what many saints have suffered Read More …

The concept of true love in Sahaja Yoga and Workshop Nirmala Palace - Nightingale Lane Ashram, London (England)

Workshop with new people. Nirmala Palace – Nightingale Lane Ashram, London (United Kingdom) 1982-08-18 38:10 One thing is that TM people ask too many questions and they take time. So just don’t ask so many questions, just establish your Realization, alright? Put some TM with him, that’s better. [Towards some Yogi] Will you look after him? Alright. Come along, you come this side, he’ll look after you, the deputy director. [Laugh]. How is he now? Just try. Come along, better that you stay with him, I mean you understand him, he’ll tell you better, he knows all these things, he has gone trough. 38:53 [..39:59 on video] Shri Mataji: Sit down Sahaja Yogi: Mother? Where else should I put this? Shri Mataji: Here. [Shri Mataji shows her Hamsa] Shri Mataji: Yes. I think most of them need it, a little bit. Shri Mataji: You see, in Sahaja Yoga, you are not given any mantra or anything. There’s no, nothing like giving you into a big course, like teaching you one after another any mantra, or anything, it’s not like that. What you have to know: where the Kundalini is, how it is moving, where it is, what is the charka catching and what is the mantra for that. It doesn’t take anything, hardly it takes about a week for you to understand the all thing. But gradually, as you start using it, you become proficient and you how to do it for yourself and for others. There is not much Read More …

Advice on Right Side Brighton Pavilion, Brighton (England)

Public Program Day 2. Brighton (UK), 14 May 1982. Shri Mataji: Oh, I would suggest that first let them ask questions today. So I keep myself there…If you have any questions, it’s better to ask me first. So that your mind is at rest. I’m glad to stand…better to see people better. Am I better here or on the ground? Now, first of all it’s better to ask the questions because yesterday when we started this question session people got little deviated. It’s better to ask questions now, what you have, because you are all seekers. You are all seekers and you have been seeking so is best is to ask questions now so I’ll be able to put the answer in between My lecture. No questions? That means Sahaja Yogis have become quite capable of explaining Sahaja Yoga and I’m very proud of them. When I went to Australia the newspaper people asked Me, “Mother, are all Your disciples scholars?” I said, “No, they are very common people. They have to be very common and normal people.” But they said, “The way they know things, surprisingly we feel they are all scholars.” I said, “All scholarship is within yourself.” All the knowledge is within yourself. If you only can get light there, you can see all that knowledge is within you. You don’t have to go anywhere for your knowledge. It’s all inside, everything is built in. You are built in so beautifully to become your Spirit that I Read More …

Krishna, Christ Heartwood Community Center, Santa Cruz (United States)

Public Program Day 2 (evening). Santa Cruz (USA), 18 October 1981. I am very happy to see that so many of you did feel the realization and you felt the Spirit. And that’s why today I am going to tell you about the Spirit as well as about the two other chakras which we have left out. The center that is called as Vishuddhi Chakra is placed at a point where your neck joins the thoracic body. You’ll be amazed that in the Universe, America represents this center. We developed this center within ourselves when the human beings in their evolution raised their head up. That time, these two powers that I showed you yesterday, the power of action and the power of desire, these two cross each other. And it started developing a kind of an institution, like a balloon we can say, as a by-product of using these two powers. By your action you developed your ego, by your conditioning you developed your super-ego. These two institutions met at the point here on top of your head, at the fontanel bone area, when you grew up to twelve years of age. Actually, that is the main time, a very important time in human development. It starts very early though, that the fontanel bone area which is very soft in a child, starts getting calcified. Now, by this as I told you, you became an egg or a separate entity, or we could say as one Mister X and Read More …

The Mystery of God Caxton Hall, London (England)

“The Mystery of God”, Caxton Hall, London (UK), 8 June 1981. Yesterday you all enjoyed the music and I was very happy, at your enjoyment. Music plays a very dynamic role in human life, one has to understand that. One of the mysteries I was describing to you, last time, also, created by naad, they call it ‘naad’, you can say the logos or the first sound, the Om, the Brahma. The sound, first time, the sound that was created, when the Primordial Mother, or the Primordial Power, of Divine Love, the Power of God, separated from God Himself. God was the Witness; Witness of the Play of the Divine Power. There is no difference between the two. God Almighty, and His Power are just like the sun and his rays. For us, for human beings, this is impossible to conceive the mystery. Moreover, in our ego, we think that we can understand Him, is another mystery for me. But, to me it’s a very sweet thing to see human beings trying to comprehend the mystery of God. It’s like a little child trying to understand the table work of his father; or could be much more. But this sound, the first sound, which is described as also ‘logos’ I believe, is the sound of this Primordial Power, of this Divine Power, that has created the whole universe. Now one may say that, “How are we to believe that this sound exists?” Of course, one should not believe. But whether Read More …

Nirmala Vidya Rahuri (India)

Nirmala Vidya (excerpt), Rahuri (India), 31 December 1980. It is the special power by which we do All Divine work, even forgiving. When you say, “Mother, forgive us “, the technique by which I forgive you is Nirmala Vidya. The technique by which I love you is also Nirmala Vidya. The technique by which all the Mantras are manifesting themselves and are effective is also Nirmala Vidya. ‘Nirmala’ means ‘pure’, ‘Vidya’ means ‘knowledge’. Nirmala Vidya is purest knowledge or the knowledge of this technique. It creates loops, the energy creates loops and creates also different formations by which it acts and [with?]draws all that is unwanted, impure, and fills it up with its power. It is a technique, a divine technique which I may not be able to explain to you fully because your instrument does not do that – you don’t have that instrument. But now you see, how subtle it is. Only by saying, “Nirmala Vidya”, you just invite that power, the whole thing, the whole technique to attend to you and it attends to you. You don’t have to worry. It never happens in any government or anywhere in the world. You just address the Government. and the whole thing goes into work, in the whole the entire universe, every creation. That technique is called Nirmala Vidya. That technique once mastered, by surrendering into it; it completely obeys, absolutely. But it is Ganesh Shakti, the Shakti of Innocence is the power called Innocence. The whole power because Read More …

Puja 1980-0126 Today I’m going to tell you what are the mantras of Sahasrara, which are very important. You start it from the back, put your right hand towards me, put your left at the back.

Mooladhara: morning talk New Delhi (India)

Public program, Mooladhara (English & Hindi). Delhi, India. 12 March 1979. In the morning, I was telling you that your attention which is towards Me, if I say that you take it inside you, that you cannot take. (I want to ask whether I should speak in Hindi or in English. Sahaja Yogis: Hindi. Shri Mataji: All of you understand English or Hindi? Sahaja Yogi: Hindi. Any language you can speak easily. Shri Mataji: So, I can speak in all the languages. In this birth I learnt English also. Sahaja Yogi: Hindi. Shri Mataji: In Hindi? Ok, will speak in Hindi.) For that, something should happen inside you. Some happening should be there. This I told you in the morning. Another very important thing is that only one or two people achieve atma and paramatma. Only selected ones have and common man is left untouched then there is no meaning of it. There will be no meaning of paramatma neither there will be any meaning of this world. There will be no meaning of this creation. Common man has to achieve it. If it is not of common man and only selected people get it then there will be same condition as of everyone else. Those who had it no one believed in them. And what happens even if we believe, tell Me? Just assume that someone is a king, so he is a king in his house, how does it matter to us. We did not get anything from Read More …

The Three Channels Caxton Hall, London (England)

“The three channels”, public programme, Caxton Hall, London (UK), 23 October 1978. No doubt, everyone will have to go through this process, but how many really want to be themselves? There are certain people who say, “We are seeking.” When I ask them, “What are you seeking?” they say, “We are seeking joy, peace, happiness…” Some of them are worried if they are worthy of it or not, whether they should really know their Self or not. There are two types of problems about such seekers. One which I call as – “the left-hand side problem” of the Ida Nadi, where the people are very emotional, subdued, who bear all the oppressions of others on themselves. They say, “We are unworthy of this great position, Mother. How can we get Self-realization? We are sinners. How can we be, … that higher evolved souls, when we have sinned, when we have done wrong?” This is one type. The another is the one who uses his rationality, and, he thinks, “How can it be possible? How can we get realization?” So many of them cannot believe that there could be a phenomena within us, which works out Self-realization. They do not even understand that God is compassion, He is love. I wonder if such people of this category also really believe in God, in His all-powerful nature. They may have a photograph in their houses. If He is compassion, if He is love, then He is not going to allow His own Read More …

Letter London (England)

Letter The environment plays a big role in the reaction of a person. The sensitivity of the chakras becomes dull after the first few shocks to them. Then a human being starts living with all the shocking habits very easily. He exists, but in a very superficial manner and does not want to go down into his depth as he cannot face the shocks that are stored within. He tries to forget them as that helps him to exist. But mere existence is not accepted by people like you and many others who face themselves. They are brave and courageous children of mine. Sahaja Yoga can help only those. You have been worried about others. To the extent that you want their emancipation I am willing to agree. But this is only possible if you can see the purpose of emancipation. The purpose is to introduce to their awareness the Kingdom of God, His laws and His glory. The responsibility of every individual as an instrument is to accept Him in his full freedom. The object of Sahaja Yoga is complete liberation hence nothing can be done arbitrarily by Adi Shakti. The only thing I can do is to lead you and guide you to awaken your divinity in full freedom. …… A cat has to change seven places to save her children. ……
