Spirituality is not for sale

As per oxford dictionary spirituality means  the quality of being concerned with the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things

Spirituality involves the recognition of a feeling or sense or belief that there is something greater than myself, something more to being human than sensory experience, and that the greater whole of which we are part is cosmic or divine in nature. ... An opening of the heart is an essential aspect of true spirituality.

By awakening of the kundalini, the real path of spirituality opens up for the human being. Mataji Nirmaladevi had been doing this for so many years in various countries of the world. People from all walks of life, religions, nations, financial standing, having different education etc. have really benefiteed in this process.  

Sahajayoga by Mataji Nirmaladevi helps people to get connected with the divine spirit in own body.  When kundalini rises, she being your mother, protects you, guides you, helps you in every possible way .  Only requirement is that you need to be connected with kundalini every day through meditation.  Spiritual progress is possible only through kundalini awakening  through sahajayoga. 

Sahajayogis are fortunate to get Adishakti Mataji as their own guru to impart this knowledge.  People must be away from false gurus, self proclaimed gurus who are crooks and criminals at time, whose eyes are on peoples purses and properties.  Those are not dharmatmas . they are Kugurus.  Please save yourself by such devils in the forms of gurus . 

Get self enlightment from Mataji Nirmaladevi, free for life and enjoy the spiritual ascent. 

Mataji has always said that "Spirituality cannot be bought and sold ".

following is the text of speech given by mataji nirmaladevi in this regard.

Spirituality is not for sale!

I bow to all the seekers of truth. I do not know how to thank the mayor of Oakland and mayor of Berkeley for being so kind to give this certificate to Me. I must say this is a wonderful country where people recognize something that is doing good work. Really remarkable it is. I had been here before, to Berkeley, because everybody tells Me that there are lots of seekers of truth in Berkeley. This is the thing that attracted Me very much. But first of all we should know what are we seeking all these days. Once you start seeking it goes on like a rat-race of seeking. Or have you been able to find something? So what do you have to find in your seeking? As you know, in all the scriptures it is been told that you have to know yourself. You don't know yourself, you don't know what problems you have within. People get into diseases without knowing until it develops into a very serious trouble. Also they go on hurting others, being jealous with others, being in tension and stress. All kind of problems come to them, and they don't know why it happens, why, what is the reason?

Now for that, there is placed within us a beautiful thing called Kundalini which lies in the triangular bone, which is called as "sacrum". That means Greeks knew about it, that's why they called it a sacred bone. In the triangular bone it lies at the base of your spine and this is the one which is going to give you a real ascent. This is the one which is going to connect you to the All Pervading Power of Divine Love. They have all talked about God, Power of God, Divine love, all kinds of things, but we don't know where it is, where does it exist, how it works. If really it is there or not, also we are not very sure. So this power lies within your triangular bone, can you show them? All of you have this power within you. It is not anyone who belongs to any nationality, or to any culture but everyone has this power within himself. But you'll be surprised, how people have made such a horrible picture of Kundalini and they say that when the Kundalini rises you may go mad, you may shout, you must do all kinds of things. Because they have no authority to do it, because they don't know how to do it - that's why they make up a story like that and tell you, because they don't want you to ascend, I think. Or they don't know, they are incapable of awakening the Kundalini. But I must tell you that She is your Mother. She is your individual Mother. She knows everything about you. It is all recorded, whatever was your past, whatever mistakes you committed, whatever aspirations you have, everything She knows about it, it's all recorded there in the 3-1/2 coils. But She is your Mother, your own Mother and when you were born, your Mother took all the trouble upon Herself. She didn't give you trouble. In the same way when this Kundalini rises, She doesn't give you any trouble. Now people are afraid even to talk about Kundalini because those who talked about Kundalini were, I don't know what sort of people they were, and it was such a misleading thing that they thought, it's better not to talk about it. But talk is talk, talk is not everything.

What has to happen is the awakening of this Kundalini. It's an actualization, it is not just talking, giving lectures, you do this, you stand like this, put your hand this way, your legs that way, it's not that. It is very simple, that this Kundalini, which is responsible for your last ascent, your, I should say, the last step in your evolution, this Kundalini is your own Mother and She cannot harm you. She can never do that. This is the fact I would like to tell you first of all. Because I know in America all kinds of people have come from India, those people also they were released from jail, wore some sort of a dress and came here. They are all minting money, that's what they are doing, they are good at it. So if you have any understanding about Divinity you must understand that you cannot sell it and you cannot purchase it. If you can purchase some person then such a person cannot be your master, he can be your servant but not your master. So onc

e you understand this point, it is very important for you people to know that it is not saleable because you know this is a consumer society, and everything has to be sold. But not spirituality, you cannot sell spirituality. And those who sell spirituality are spurious people, they are not real, they are absolutely bogus people as they call them, and you don't waste your energy and money on them."

What we get out of Meditation

Mataji Nirmaladevi has always asked to do meditation twice a day to every sahajayogi. She has also told many a times that only through mediatation you would be connected with me. If you do not meditate, i cannot have any relationship with you. So Meditation is most important thing of life for every sahajayogi.

following is the text of some of her speech on the subject .

 Good............Morning..........to all our Souls,...........))))))))))))

“It is very common among some of us that we have to encounter with the most common questions of new people who are completely indulge in their materialistic life which is related with the benefit of meditation in our day to day life.

They usually ask, ‘What we will get out of meditation?,

Why we should do meditation,

whereas we are already happy in our life ?

Then we often tell them that, “Your health will improve, your diseases will be vanished, you will gain mental peace & satisfaction.

You will grow in spiritual field, you will rise in financial aspects and so on.

But these sayings hardly works on them then they usually question us, ‘how you are living,

Are you people happy in your materialistic life ?

Are you leading a disease free life? Don’t you have any problem?

Then we become bewildered to answer them because we too, use to be suffering from different kinds of problem in our human life.

If we tell the truth then we might feel ashamed before them and they might lose their interest for adopting Meditation.

But somehow we try to convince them so that they could meditate but internally we use to be thinking about our routine genuine problems which are engulfing our happiness.

So it is better to tell them that, ‘ Through Meditation we perceive ‘Divine Energy’ (which look afters the whole universe) to improve our understanding related to Materialistic World'.

So that we could make our life more peaceful and happier as well as it enhances our faith in ‘Divinity’ so that we might have a rapport with ‘Almighty’.” ---‘Impulses’

Miraculous Escape from Car on Fire

Experience of one of the Sahajayogi as described in one of the facebook post.  It clearly shows how Mataji Nirmaladevi takes care of her children in every calamity.  Matajis love and net of protection is great support to all disciples. 

Experience of miraculous escape -

 Paulina experiences a miracle On a recent grey Friday morning, I came to a rental car office to pick up my rental car. The young woman behind the counter gave me Ford Renegade, because it had fewer miles than the other available vehicle and I had 550 miles to go. The Renegade had just a bit over 28,000 miles on the clock. I loved the car, promptly dashed home to pick up my luggage, my husband’s suitcase and some other bits and bobs that I thought would be needed. With NPR on the radio, WAZE GPS on the phone and mirrors fully adjusted, I was ready to whistle all the way to Charleston, WV. The GPS put me on i78W and like an obedient child I followed every instruction to the t. I was in the middle lane of the three lane express side of the highway, no more than 30-40 minutes outside of the city of New York when I heard an engine noise. With trucks zooming at 75 mph all around me, going under an underpass, I could only assume that it was a rumble of a passing truck. It took me no more than a few minutes to realize that the noise came from my car! Initial thought of getting off at the next exit was inexplicably replaced by a need to get of the highway immediately. Cutting across the other lanes, without giving any thought to surrounding truck traffic, I barely managed to edge to the shoulder when flames exploded in front of my face, thankfully on the other side of the windscreen.

I grabbed my handbag and cell phone and got out!

The hyperawareness of one’s surroundings is a bit like an out-of-body experience, or, more precisely, of a totally detached witness, at the same time being fully aware of the surroundings and, most importantly the source of my miraculous help.

After the firemen put out the flames, there was only a burned out metal carcass that remained. I had an unexplained urge to get to the car, but the policeman would not let me near. After badgering the firemen, I was allowed to see the remains, but only in the presence of the professionals and not too close.

There was nothing left the car but burnt metal and ash. I walked around, starting from the back and going clockwise. I was kept several feet away from the car, but when I got to the front window on the passengers’ side, I though I saw something peeking from the black char. It was a white corner edge gleaming on the seat. I lunged, grabbed the edge and pulled Shri Mataji’s photo out of ashes. The frame was slightly burned, but the smile was unmistakably there and the photo largely undamaged!

The only things that survived this disastrous event were Shri Mataji’s photo and me!

The Mystery of GOD

 

“The Mystery of God.”

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 you believe or not, it exists! So why not discover it. Instead of discarding something, why not discover it? Is a better way of looking at things. You should keep yourself absolutely open, and see for yourself if it is true or not.

For any scientific man, it is important to be an open-minded person. If he is bound by some traditional ideas or some sort of old-fashioned ideas or some sort of hypocritical ideas, or fanatical ideas, such a person cannot be a scientist. For any scientist it is important to be a very open-minded man, objective and not subjective. You remain subjectively very controversial when you are not Self-realised. Before that every. subject is a different subject. ....

Everybody is a different person subjectively. Some person like a blonde lady, someone likes with the dark hair, and everybody has a different idea. There’s nothing like absolute among people, naturally, because they have not reached their absolute. So you are absolutely subjective. For music or for anything, whatever you like, is all subjective..

But still it is subjective depending on the conditioning of people. I mean for example Indians like a particular type of colours and English like another type; everyone likes different. So some absolute has to be found out. So everything that is subjective is useless for a scientist, no doubt, but scientists have not reached their absolute either......

There’s something illusory about the whole thing because what you think today as the truth doesn’t remain as the truth tomorrow. So there’s some sort of an illusion that is working in between. Something you like in childhood, you may not like it in your old age. It’s all the time changing. The subjective mood depends on so many things: your family, your treatment, your childhood, your parents, your relations, the country you are born in, the culture you are brought up in. Everything gives you this personality which has that subjective feelings or subjective understanding....

Everything may change in this world but that Truth remains. If you have this faith within you – that He loves you – despite the fact that you have had bad problems. It’s all human beings who create problems for you, God doesn’t create any problem for you. You do not know how much He looks after you. How many problems you have created for Him so that there is a barrier between His grace and you. People have created mountains and mountains between Him and themselves! They don’t want to have Him. He’s there to pour down all that He has and here such a big balloon of an ego carrying you through without receiving a single drop of that grace.

So, we have to understand, that we are still children, and children have to behave like children. Not to say that we know everything. Actually you don’t know anything, I would say, till you have got your Realisation.

His love never changes. Then His love is victorious – victorious.

Daily Meditation and Foot Soaking very important

You must get up early in the morning.  In the morning, after getting up early and taking your bath, one must sit for meditation.

There is not much to be done: just meditate and keep yourself clean, keep your physical side clean. However, for you I have told you one important thing. As it is said that everyone must go to bathroom and clean oneself after getting up in the morning, similarly, for Sahaja Yogies, it is extremely important to do foot soaking for at least five minutes before going to bed. However highly evolved you may be, and even if you may not be getting caught, but it doesn’t matter: you must do foot soaking for at least five minutes. Even I do foot soaking sometimes, so that my Sahaja Yogies will imbibe this habit. It’s a very good habit. All Sahaja Yogies must do foot soaking for at least for five minutes every day. All Sahaja Yogies should light a lamp before the photograph, apply sindur , dip their feet in the water and sit in this fashion, opening out both the palms towards the photograph. If you do this, more than half of your problems would be solved automatically. Whatever happens, it is not difficult to spare five minutes.

--H.H. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi - May 29th, 1976, Mumbai

Following are various benefits of meditation and foot soaking as found on various health blogs.

The emotional benefits of meditation can include:

·         Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations.

·         Building skills to manage your stress.

·         Increasing self-awareness.

·         Focusing on the present.

·         Reducing negative emotions.

·         Increasing imagination and creativity.

·         Increasing patience and tolerance.

 

Even as reflexology demonstrates, your entire body is represented by and connected to your feet. Therefore, caring for and nurturing your feet can bring health and well-being to all of your limbs and organs. Here are just a few health benefits that result when you immerse your feet in a relaxing hot water bath.

Foot baths increase your overall body temperature, which can relieve muscle and mental tension, alleviate stress and increase white blood cell activity. All of this boosts your immune system, which prevents sickness and increases your overall health and well-being.

Foot baths are naturally soothing, and just one foot soak has the power to calm the mind and the body into a state of relaxed bliss. This improves cognitive function, helps boost creativity and work habits, leads to better sleep and improves your overall mood. Adding aromatherapy or essential oils to your foot bath can increase these health benefits, leading to ultimate tranquility and a wholly satisfying way to unwind after a stressful day.

Surrender once and then Divine Power will take care of you

 

“The wisdom can only come through honest introspection.”

Especially in Sahaj Yoga, if you think, “I am doing any work,” better not do it. But if you think, “I am doing nothing!” and what joy; what joy it is!

You will become so energetic, because once you surrender, then the Divine power starts flowing through you. That’s why Mohammed Sahib has said ‘Islam’ – means “to surrender”. He’s said it about me also, that “I’ll send you…” He called me ‘The Sent One’. And everything He’s talked about, having the vibrations and all that, in His own style. But He said that the message should be of surrender.

And that surrendering part has to be there because Shri Krishna, in Gita, has very clearly said that, “Forget every dharma, just surrender yourself to me.” And that surrendering, if the Sahaj Yogis develop in America, the rest I’ll look after. But you leave it to me to do it. And then ideas and everything will start flowing because this is Virata’s place. That’s why you have such great scientists here, such great schools for all kinds of intellectual work and all that is here. ...

So they might be intelligent, they might be well-read, they might be able to discover something out of matter, but they do not have wisdom. And the wisdom can only come through honest introspection. But it should not be also, “I am catching on this chakra, I’m catching on that chakra.” Not that. But, “Why am I not seeing the point? What’s the matter with me? Why can’t I understand what is Sahaj Yoga?”

Even when you have become Sahaj Yogis now, for years together, still these old nonsensical things stick on to you, these ideas stick on to you. Why? Why do we not have that purity of Divine discretion which sees everything so clearly?

So I think we need collectivity, first of all, and secondly meditative honesty. Just to meditate, sit down before the photograph, do the meditation – no! Meditation should act, should work. If it does not work, something wrong with you; absolutely something wrong.

If you feel everything is working all right, everything is miraculously showing its presence, the presence of the Paramchaitanya, then you are all right. But if it is not so, if there are problems, then you are not, you are not a Sahaj Yogi.

Sahaj Yogi is the one who is completely connected with this Paramachaitanya; and for that age is no bar.

Jago Kundalini Ma, Karo Sabpe Kripa

Kundalini is the divine force in our body.  With the blessings of Mataji Nirmaladevi we can get to know her, get out enlightenment and raising of our kundalini.   We then feel vibrations, we become distinct from other people.  We can make correct choice between pure and impure, right and wrong, ethical and unethical.  It makes total transformation.  Rise of Kundalini from Muladhar to Sahastrar is not easy task, but with the kripa of Mataji it can happen instantly. One has to just surrender self, ego, wisdom, come with a clean slate and then Mataji would teach you the path of kundalini.

Jai Shri Mataji Nirmaladevi and Jai Kundalini Ma. 

Following is the song of Kundalini as read by me on one facebook post by someone sonia, which is just reproduced for your information. 

Jai shri Mataji

 Song Of Kundalini

As the coiled energy Kundalini

Rises towards sahasrara,

It’s journey is so beautiful

And integration so colourful .

It lightens up the path

With its radiant energy ,

And brightens up the chakras

With its vibrant vitality .

Strands of kundalini

Are tender and fierce ,

It nourishes our plexus

With its gentle pierce .

Each and every cell

Of our body revel,

In complete joy and placidity

In divine rapture and serenity .

It’s an experience filled with exhilaration

Kundalini awakening is an actualisation ,

It’s fruits can only be perceived

When the gift of self realisation is achieved .

Showered by blessings from above

We are engulfed in the ocean of Nirmal Love ,

Each and every wave shimmers

Every drop just gleams and glitters .

We go beyond our self identity

To dwell in the land of tranquility

With full humility ,

We surrender to divinity .

A radiance of celestial light

Enlightens our aura , our being ,

Making us an angel ,

A gentle human being

O ! Mother kundalini

Clear away my negativities ,

Free me from all the impurities

For , your are the fragrant tree in me ,

You are the source of joy in me

Mother! you are the source of joy in me .
