BENEFITS OF SAHAJA YOGA MEDITATION

 

Sahaja Yoga Meditation has a beneficial impact on every aspect of a person’s life – our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual life. By bringing about an inner transformation, the benefits of meditation accrue not only to the individual but also to the society, the nation and ultimately the whole of humanity. Sahaja Yoga Meditation brings about integration of all the traditional spiritual teachings of the world.

Physical benefits

It is our subtle system which co-ordinates all the work done by the organs and the cells in our body. When one of our subtle centres is blocked, physical dysfunctions appear in the organs it controls. It is then that illnesses appear. Traditional medicine tries to cure the symptoms. Sahaj meditation allows us to directly address the causes, by rebalancing our subtle system and by cleaning our centres using the purifying Kundalini mothering energy within.

Mental benefits

When we enter a state of meditation, we enter a realm of silence; the thoughts which assail us fade away, and the reality of the present is revealed to us in all its intensity. Our senses send us a direct image of the world which is not altered by our mind or our conditionings. The mind even becomes the enlightened servant of our illuminated spirit.

Emotional benefits

When the Kundalini mothering energy is awakened and we are immersed in a state of meditation, our emotions are also brought into balance. All the weaknesses which hinder the expression of pure and sincere sentiments, such as greed, insecurity, jealousy etc. are reduced when the joy of meditation is felt. This joy is absolute, devoid of all duality. This same joy becomes the motivation of our emancipation.

Spiritual benefits

Last but not the least, Sahaj meditation reveals to us the eternal, divine being that is truth, awareness and bliss. We become part and parcel of the whole, like a drop in that ocean of love, and in meditation we melt into that primordial being. This experience is the next stage in the evolution of a human being’s awareness: that person is said to be born again or realized. This means that our spiritual essence, that was previously hidden, becomes reality. We can now set about purifying our inner being, with the help of the self-knowledge that Shri Mataji gives us and the relationship we establish with her in our meditation. Our union with the Divine will become stronger and stronger as we go along and is without doubt the most precious benefit that Kundalini awakening can bring us. This middle way that is established within us day after day by our Kundalini will shower numerous blessings upon us, not only of a physical, emotional or psychological nature, but also mental, social and professional benefits.

From the very beginning, the flow of vibrations help us to decipher and decode messages from the collective unconscious informing us of problems affecting the different chakras. Thanks to our own enlightened attention and the observation of our inner being during meditation, we can know the vibratory state of our own or anyone else’s subtle system.

Become Spirit - The Universal Being

 

Go beyond your physical, emotional, mental being and become the spirit. Because spirit is the reflection of God Almighty and spirit is the universal being within you.

When you become the spirit, you become a universal being. You become a universal being, doesn't mean that you take a certificate that you are a universal being. Not at all. But this state of being a universal being is manifested in you. It is manifested as an innate knowledge within you. As you have innate knowledge of colours now. You know this is this colour, this is this colour. You see it. In the same way, you become aware of you being a universal being. Means a microcosm becomes the macrocosm. Again I say becomes. It's not just a feeling that you have become. Like a drop becomes the ocean. But again it's not just a mental understanding, but it is a happening. And this happening takes place and you become a personality which leaves your boundaries, limitations and you start seeing yourself as a very loving, affectionate, compassionate personality.

When a child is born to a mother, she feels tremendous love for the child. From where does she get this love? It’s innately built within her and her love becomes doubled. Whatever love she had for herself starts flowing towards her child. But when you become a universal being, then your compassion takes a very universal personality. Then you do not think that you are an Australian or you are an Englishman or an Indian. But you just think that we are part and parcel of one universal personality.

Now this feeling sometimes can be confusing, the word is—feeling means I feel very happy, I feel very unhappy. It's all a mental projection but it becomes part and parcel of your awareness. This is the point I want to make very clearly to you. That it becomes just an awareness of collective consciousness. Then you can't avoid it, you can't just get rid of it.

As you feel for your family. Why do you feel? I mean some even don't feel that. But most of you feel for your family, for your children, for your wives, for your brothers, sisters, father, mother. So why do you feel for them? Because you have expanded your personality. So you just feel it. But when your personality is that expanded, then the whole world seems to be your family, your relations. Then you do not see a person superficially skin deep but you see a person as a part and parcel of your being. Not only that but as you can feel your own chakras on your fingertips, you can feel the chakras of another person on your fingertips. And then if you know how to correct, you can correct those centers and correct their problems

Excerpts:

MAHALAXMI PRINCIPLE

 

Now in all of you Mahalakshmi principle has been awakened. Mahalakshmi resides in the Sushumna nadi and Sushumna is developed only up to a point in human beings. It is later on, like a bridge built in, is created by Mahalakshmi principle; that means a person who is satisfied, who is in balance, who is dharmic: his ocean becomes desirous of becoming the clouds of this Sushumna nadi or the path of Sushumna. This desire creates this path, this bridge of Sushumna within us.

Unless and until Mahalakshmi principle is awakened within us, we cannot make the Kundalini pass properly because it will always get lost in the Void. So the dignity, the respect of a Sahaja Yogi will always help him to build this path of Sushumna over the Void. It is not some sort of an artificial respect, or an artificial etiquette, but is a feeling from inside, a kind of a state human beings reach where they feel that it is important that we have to be respectful to everybody.

But the Lakshmi principle disappears with certain things which we must know. First of all, it is said in Marathi language, that if a bottle [of alcohol] comes from the door, the Lakshmi goes, runs away from the window. So the bottle must be kept out if you want to keep Lakshmi inside

Then another thing is the ‘badha’. When a person gets possessed anywhere if there is darkness, then Lakshmi runs away. In these circumstances, one must try to clear out so that there is no problem. If there is a ‘badha’, then money-wise you cannot be all right, whatever you may try. These two things if you look after, the Lakshmi will stay. And on the satisfaction of that Lakshmi, you will build up your path of Sushumna.

Meaning for this Beautiful Human Structure

 

If You See Yourself, Whoever Made This Human Body And This Human Spirit Must Be A Fantastic Artist

YOU HAVE DONE NOTHING TO BE HUMAN AND YOU MUST DO NOTHING TO BE SUPERIOR.

And as you have your human Realization, as you have your Human body, if you must reach a more advanced personality, it must be spontaneous,

Three hundred and fifty million life types. And now you have become a human being. So, after all, there must be a meaning to this beautiful human structure, to this instrument [and] why it was created. There must be a reason for this.

And as you have your Human Realization, as you have your human body, if you must achieve a more advanced personality, it must be spontaneous, you cannot achieve it. It should be simple logic. You have done nothing to be a human being and you must do nothing to be superior.

But maybe you hurt yourself a little, maybe, by doing something wrong. And whatever wrong you have done to yourself, you can also fix it if the seed must germinate. You are made that way, God made you specifically for this purpose. He created you from an amoebe, a carbon atom. Whether you believe in Him or not doesn't matter.

But if you see yourself, whoever made this human body and this human mind must be a fantastic artist. And it was said that if we kept the law of randomness, we wouldn't even be able to produce a tiny, tiny unicellular amiba. Thus, in such a short time, if something as complex as a Human Being is created, there is a General behind it. Believe it or not, it doesn't matter, the fact is it exists and it works. >>

Now we have this instrument placed within us. This very, very subtle instrument is placed at our place. Now I'm going to talk to you about the Kundalini - how it works and what the different chakras are.

These are all very subtle centers as I told you yesterday. We can't see them with our naked eye, but when the kundalini starts to rise, when it starts to rise, then you can see with your naked eye the pulse of the kundalinis and the pulse of these chakras. Until it reaches here, you can feel the pulse here and until it doesn't pulse, you don't get your Fulfillment. Once the pulse stops, you must know that it has resulted in this divine omnipresent power.

When this happens, you start to feel that cool breeze in your hand. You're starting to feel a fresh radiation passing through you. That's the Holy Spirit radiate in you It is the radiance you feel from your Spirit that resides in your heart. You can also feel your centers on your fingers as they are now illuminated.

Now all this what ever I tell you you can feel it and verify it. The time has come for you to check everything I say. It was already said, thousands of years ago, that Kundalini resides within us. Adi Shankaracharya, sixth century, said it very, very clearly, openly, that there is this residual power waiting in the triangular bone as you see there, in three and a half spirals, which finally awakens and gives you your realization, your second birth. He described it very clearly, as well as every other center. But long before, long before that, thousands of years ago, people were working in the awakening of Kundalini, but it remained a secret. They started working on few people because we too, in our scientific research, first use it in a very kept secret, try to discover the different ways and methods and then, when it becomes absolutely perfect, we make it public and make it known to all world. Because until a discovery is not useful to the masses, it is meaningless.

Today is the time for you to know everything and that is why now here in Brighton we discuss it so openly and try to understand it. >>

ABOUT SWADISTAN AND LIVER

 

ABOUT SWADISTAN AND LIVER

Now I will tell you about only one chakra first of all, is the yellow chakra you see there called as Swadisthan which moves around that void. This is the one which is responsible for producing or manifesting our reflexes but that’s only on the physical side. Now how much work this poor centre has to do! We have never thought that when we think the energy we use in our thinking how is it replaced, thinking energy from where does it come in our brain. We are using our brain all the time but what is replacing it, is this center.

So this center – you know the brain is made of fats – this center converts the fat of the stomach for the use of the brain and that’s how – this is again hypothesis I am telling you – that’s how those who think too much go into imbalance, futuristic thinking people planning everything, plan this, plan that. Most of the plans fail also but they are planning all the time, thinking too much. All that leads to one crisis is that person becomes imbalanced in the sense that this poor centre which has to do other jobs also, it has to look after your liver, it has to look after your pancreas, it has to look after your spleen, your kidneys and part of the intestine, large intestine.

So a person who thinks too much, a very right sided futuristic person first problem can come from his liver. In the medical science I don’t think we have much knowledge about liver. Liver is by which we live. I think, it’s a very important organ in the body. So the function of the liver is to absorb all the poison of the body and convert it into heat and which passes to the blood stream, is the function in simple words. I am not using any medical terminology, simple words. So now when you start thinking too much you neglect your liver. When you neglect your liver poor thing doesn’t know how to do his job. So, the who heat is saturated in the stomach. The person has heat here then the heat starts passing upward.

New Awareness of Self and Religion

 

Everyone has been talking about truth; since long we have been hearing that we have to find out the truth, and there has been an evolutionary process even in our spiritual seeking. As you must have seen how gradually we are built up and how the divine personalities came on this earth to give us a new awareness, a new dimension, a new understanding of ourselves within. All this evolved slowly one after another, outside as well as inside; but what we see outside sometimes frightens people. They see a person like Khomeini, they see a person like Idi Amin, then Gadaffi – they’re quite shocked. They think these fundamentalists are there, they can’t understand how these people can carry on with that kind of a fundamental idea in their head – that they are the best and they have a right to proclaim as if Mohammed Sahib was in their pocket.

But is true of every religion – they are very close, they are not sophisticated so we do not see their fanaticism, we can see this fanaticism but those who are so sophisticated, like I was born in a Protestant religion; I found they were extremely sophisticated and no escape was left for any seeker to come out of it – because only thing was to dress up nicely, go on a Sunday, attend a meeting and finished – pay for the parson, pay for the church – finished, you are saved once and for all. I used to think how they are draining all the seeking of human beings away, how, what is this going on? And then we had Paul – I was shocked to see him in the Bible; how he was there I don’t know. But he was never with Christ. He was actually an anti-Christ in a way because he was epileptic, he tortured people who were Christians – suddenly he sees some light and takes up the charge, becomes the leader, orders about, organizes God, Christ, everyone, Church.

Now today it’s nice that we see that second confrontation, now we have two groups of people – those who believe that Christ was miraculous, was Divine, and those now who believe in Paul that He was not. I say He was, He was the divine incarnation of the child, He was the Son of God – it can be proved now. Now the time has come to prove all these things. Hindus are the same, extremely fanatical. They have a funny custom of having a caste system which was never, never preached before, actually the one who wrote Gita was Vyasa, who was the illegitimate child of a fisher-woman. So how could you say that you are born as a Brahmin? Valmiki who wrote Ramayana was a man who was a thief, and also a fisherman and he became such a great saint. None of the incarnations took birth in the Brahmin family except for Parushamas, so the so-called Brahmins today who say that they are the ones who are the fundamental Hindus should know that they are not.

Brahmin is a person who knows the Brahma, the one who feels the power, the eternal power, the power that is all-pervading of God, the Brahma. If you cannot feel that then you are no Brahmin, you are just trying to proclaim like any priest does. Everybody has taken these beautiful flowers away from the tree of life, when they are dead they are calling this is mine, this is mine, this is mine. And they are fighting, they are militant. How can you be militant like these born-again people? You’ll be surprised that in Geneva they come with Bibles, Bibles in their hands to hit Me, and I was just laughing. They have a tape on that I say what Christians are coming nicely down with the Bible to hit somebody, I mean can you imagine such absurd things happening in the name of Christ, in the name of other great religions? Every religion has gone wrong – Buddhism has gone wrong to such an extent that Buddha did not want to talk at all about God because he thought if you talk about God everybody thinks they have become Gods. So best thing is tell them first Self-realization, I did that Myself for some years. First take your realization then I’ll talk about God. No God, nothing, first take your realization. That’s why he didn’t want to talk about God, that’s why they call him (Anishwar?), means he does not believe in God, he’s an atheist. He was not, but he saw the point. It’s better not talk about God, let them have their Self-realization and then we’ll talk about it. But Buddhists, they not only worship everything, but if you see the way they go on all worshipping they’re really maddening people. Really maddening. You cannot imagine how they could be so funny I have seen, in China, I was surprised with these llamas, that when I went to China, they showed us what they got from Tibet, because I knew Pahi, ancient things were there written, big, big plates of real gold and wine glasses and beer glasses all made in real twenty-four carat gold, thick ones. All were used by these lamas.

They had taken this money from these poor Tibetans. If you see the poor Tibetans, you’ll be shocked what sort of life they have lived in, and they have lived. I have no sympathy about communism as such but what I saw shocked Me – it was no publicity stunt because I know Pali. It all belonged to this llama, that llama, this person, that person. For ages they have been extracting money from these poor people who didn’t even have sufficient money to clothe themselves in that cold and they call themselves religious. Then it strikes you, you think why, why all this, how can God do these things? It’s only human beings – they really have such a knack of ruining everything that is beautiful if they want to. And this is what has happened.

Now when we stand in front of reality we realize what reality is – there is reality, there is God.

BECOMING ESTABLISHED IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD

 

BECOMING ESTABLISHED IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD

[God Almighty] is reflected in the hearts of human beings, among all the creations He pulsates. But that pulse, pulsation is the energy of the Primordial Mother. And He can destroy anything that goes against the plans of the Adi Shakti. Adi Shakti is love, She forgives and She loves. She loves her creation. She wants the creation to prosper, to go up to the same level for which it was created. She wants human beings to go to that level where they enter into the Kingdom of God, Kingdom of Sadashiva where there is bliss, there is forgiveness, there’s joy.

All this is only possible if you have seeking, that you have also a innate desire to be there. This desire within us is reflected as the reflection of the Primordial Mother. Now this desire is there and other mundane desires are also there which stop the progress of your ascent.

In Sahaja Yoga we have never tried to overcome the desires by taking sanyasa or running away from the house or for all kinds of things that has been suggested. The first thing that is done is that you get the light of your Spirit. Spirit is the reflection of Sadashiva. In that light He shows, He is just showing the path. The spirit is just like a light which is burning and which is showing the path. In that path you yourself become so wise that you walk in the light of wisdom, that you walk in the light of righteousness, because whatever is destructive is seen through the light of your Spirit. You start giving up all that is destructive. Nobody has to tell you that: “Give up this, give up that.” You yourself realize that: “This is wrong and we should give up.” This was, I should say, my own understanding of human beings. Because these are the days where people are in complete illusions. They are in a conflict all the time struggling even to exist. Under these circumstances, everything would have failed if you had started with taking a sanyasa and then going to Himalayas and all that.

If you have to do this for the masses, something has to be done radical and luckily I’ve been able to find out a way by which you can get your sprouting, your Realization.

Now some people who get Realization have to understand certain things because as you know there are many people who have got Realization. I don’t know how many, I don’t keep count. But what is lacking in them is surrendering. It’s embarrassing to say but is a fact. This is the only condition of modern Sahaja Yoga that you have to really surrender. If you start using your brain, if you start using other methods to understand Sahaja Yoga, you cannot. You must surrender and – as Islam is nothing but surrender, Islam means surrender – and if that surrender is not there it is impossible to establish anyone in the Kingdom of God.
