Proclaiming of the Universal Nirmala Religion

 

PROCLAIMING OF THE ‘UNIVERSAL NIRMALA RELIGION’

There was a question that, in America and in England, no trust which is not a religion can be registered. Of course, Sahaja Yoga is the religion, no doubt, is the universal religion, is a religion that integrates all the religion, brings all the principles of religions together and shows the – shows the oneness. It integrates all the incarnations. It integrates all the scriptures. It’s a very integrating great religion which we can call as the universal religion and, in Hindi, it is called as Vishwa Dharma.

Now to make it more particular, I thought that if you say universal religion then it may not be that particular because like the Buddhist, then we have got people who are called after Christ as Christians and after other people according to the incarnations. So this time the incarnation being Nirmala, I thought we can call it “The Religion which is Universal, in the name of Nirmala.” So to make it short, I thought we can call it “Universal Nirmala Religion”. What do you say to that?

Now Nirmala, you’ll be all called as ‘Nirmalites’. Is the one who have been enlightened by Nirmala, it goes, light shabda (word) goes, the word light goes very well with you people because you are enlightened. Others are just lights without any flame. So this is Nirmalites, means the ones who are being enlightened by Nirmala. So if you like the name, we can call it ‘Universal Nirmala Religion’. If that suits your people in the west, I think that’s a good name. So we have now proclaimed and pronounced that this is a religion which is a pure universal religion. When you say Universal Nirmala means pure or immaculate religion. And I hope you are agreeable to that.

Through Divine Vibrations you know what is Right or Wrong Karma

 

Q: What about our karmas ?

A:. Only human beings think they do karmas, animals do not think thus. Because of our ego we think that we do right or wrong, animals do not think thus. Actually, human beings do not know what is right or wrong because they live in relative world. But what is the absolute truth; that you can only know through Divine vibrations. When you become the Divine computer then everyone thinks the same way. Right and wrong becomes clear, like animals can pass a dirty drain without knowing, but human beings will not go there. When you become saints you will know the right and wrong, you cannot do anything wrong, you get a new dimension to know.

However, before that, you have conditionings and you become a closed personality with an ego. But Christ sucks your conditionings and ego. That is the meaning of Christ dying for our sins, for which He is awakened. By His powers He can suck all our sins , hence you need not feel guilty at all because all your Karmas have been sucked.

The idea of suffering comes from people who want to suffer. They say that since you have sinned you must pay for your sins but God does not understand money. Are we going to suffer more than Christ? St. Thomas has talked of nothing but Sahaja Yoga when He said that Almighty Father is so kind , so compassionate, how can He ask you to suffer? He said that our Father is so anxious for us to enter His Kingdom. So, let us rejoice and be happy and give up the idea of suffering. You are not to feel sad and guilty."

Prayer - Ask only for Yourself

"Whatever you will ask for, He will give you. Don’t ask for anything else, ask only for yourself:

“Please protect me at Your feet. Give me a place at Your feet. Take this drop in Your ocean. Whatever impurity I have, please remove it”.

Whatever you pray to God, that will happen:

“Please, make me vast.

Please, make me wise.

Please, give me Your wisdom.

Please, give me Your knowledge. Let the whole Universe be blessed. Let there be love in whole world.

Let there be Kingdom of love on earth.

Please, let this lamp burn for that. Let my body, my heart, my mind burn for that”.

Ask whatever is beautiful. He will give you. You ask for ugly, He still gives you. Even when you ask for useless things He gives them to you. So when you ask for real, will He not give you that? Don’t ask superficially but from your heart.

You must pray to God and ask what you want. Ask for:

“Please, give me complete satisfaction in my heart, joy in my heart, bliss in my heart, so that the whole world becomes blissful.

Give me love, love that I could love the whole world and that the whole world becomes one in love.

Give salvation to this humanity which is suffering. Take me to Your feet. Cleanse me with Thy love”.

Now see if there is God or not? You can feel it within yourself. He hears you. He understands you. He’s the glory of all the glory. He loves you. He protects you. He guides you. He created you to reveal His love, but accept it.

Any time, any thought is coming you pray and you will be moving in the waves of that ocean which is Unconscious Mind, which starts with thoughtless awareness.

If you cannot become thoughtless, you pray to Him: “Forgive me for what I have done and forgive those who have done harm to me.”

Inherrant Defects in Kundalini

 

Excellent people are very few. They are born realised. I do not have their problem much. But one has to deal with the people who are in the center. They are looking towards good but have something hanging on to them which is not so good. So for these people there are inherent defects in the Kundalini which we must understand.

The first of them is bad health, physical bad health. One should know that health is very important thing. Because this body is the temple of God.

Do not always say- " Mother cure me, cure me." Just say- " Mother Please keep me in the Spiritual life." You will be cured automatically.

The second hurdle which is Akar manyata. Meaning a person does not want to work it out.

Third is Sanshya which is doubt.

Forth is Pramad. It is one by which we go on faultering all the time.

Fifth is Bhram-

darshan. Hallucination.

Sixth is Vishya- Chitta in which the attention is attracted by objects of your previous identifications where your attention has been.

Seventh people get posseessed and get ideas.

Eight one starts doubting. Mainly those who visited wrong gurus or wrong places.

Humility is the only way to know that there is an Ocean before you have got into the boat alright. But you have to understand a lot. And you have still to attend to your Attention to your Chitta, to your awareness. "

Are YOU Progressing WELL

 

Are you progressing well?

If you know how to get fun out of the so-called discomforts, then you should know you are on the right lines.

As you start becoming discreet automatically, you should know you are progressing well.

As you become more peaceful and your temper vanishes in the thin air as soon as you see somebody attacking you, then know that you are progressing well.

As soon as you see an ordeal or a calamity falling on the personality and you do not get worried about it, then know that you are progressing.

When no amount of artificiality can impress you, then know you are progressing.

No amount of material well-being in others makes you unhappy, no more unhappy, then know that you are progressing well.

So this, once you understand that you are special, you will become humble about it.

Then when it happens to you, that you humble down when you see you have achieved something, that you have some powers, that you are emitting innocence, that you are discreet and as a result of that you become a more compassionate, humbler personality, a sweeter personality, then you should believe that you are in the heart of your Mother.

This is the sign of the new Sahaja yogi now in the new era who has to move with new force.

Where you will grow so fast, that without meditation you will be in meditation.

Without being in My presence you will be in My presence.

Without asking you will be blessed by your Father.

This is what you are in for; and again I welcome you to this new era today on this great day of Sahasrara.

May God bless you all!

Meditate and Distribute

 

Meditate and Distribute..........

And the more you find something in your meditation, the more you want to go and distribute it to others. That has to be. If that does not come into you then it has not worked out; there is no purity; there is some sort of a bias. In that individual pursuit, whatever you find, you want to enjoy it with others, you want to give it to others. This is the sign of the person who has been really meditative. The one, who has been meditative and has not been able to distribute what he has found is cheating himself and cheating others as well.

Because that joy that you receive in your meditation has to be distributed. Has to be given. Has to be shown. It should flow in your being as the light radiates from every illumined lamp. You don't have to take a vow to say that this is an enlightened light. In the same way a saint should not have to be certified that he is a saint. The depth you achieve within yourself spreads all over, it is such an action and reaction.

The deeper you become, the radiation is much more. You don't have to spend too much time on meditation. But whatever time you spend, whatever you gain, has to be visible outside --How you radiate and how you give it to others. That's the quality of the saints you have to be. Unless and until you become deeper, we cannot save other Sahaja Yogis. And we cannot save those who are not Sahaja yogis. You have to rise higher and higher to pull the whole curtain up. Those who try to rise higher pull the whole thing upward, and they give a pull to every one who ascend with them.

H.H. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, extract from Shri Devi Puja, Australia, 14/3/83

Matajis expectations from Sahajayogis

 

Following is extract of speech given by Mataji Nirmladevi at Perth during Devi Puja 

You have Adishakti with you...........

Now it was very spontaneously decided that we should have the Devi Puja in England. And this is the place where really Devi Puja should be, because it's the place of Sadashiva and where Adi Shakti should be worshipped. We have to today understand that why do we do Devi Puja? What is the reason for this Devi Puja? What do we get out of it? What are we supposed to achieve in our contents within ourselves? The first thing is that Kundalini is the Devi. She's the reflection of the Adi Shakti. So when you worship Devi, first you worship also your own Kundalini, by giving Her credit because She has given you this realization. It's much deeper understanding than normally people have about the Devi Puja, because they are not realized souls. Their Kundalini not is awakened. So normally when they do Devi Puja it's for the purpose of getting realization, so that the Devi should be pleased - prasanna - and should give them realization, or must give them a chance to get to somebody who will give them realization.

In the same way a Sahaja yogi must know that to be really achieving more content, we have to be not at a higher level outside. It's said in the Bible, "You have to be meek," but I think it was not explained to people. Only the strong people can be meek, secured people can be meek, only the rich in essence can be meek; not the people who are insecured, because they are insecured, how can they be meek? And not the people whom we think are rich, so-called, because if they are rich they are not generous, they are not satisfied, they are not philanthropic, so they are not rich. They are still greedy beggars.

So the content within us is to be seen. What is our content? You love me, I love you - it's very good. But when you love me, you have to know that there are certain qualities which are very loveable in a Sahaja yogi. Actually people get lost even after Sahaja Yoga. They think they can get over everything, they're perfectly all right, and they are thrown overboard. So when we say that we have to be meek, this is a content, the humility is a content. So try to do that, try to be humble with someone. You'll like yourself. You'll enjoy that quality within this that "You see, I'm humbler than another person. ...

You have to care for your own quality, for your own inner capacity to suck in...

So you have Adi Shakti with you, whose power is all this Divine. So you are at such an advantageous position. But first you must realize. So when we say we should have content, then the vessel has to be strong. Otherwise everything will break. And this strength is the one you should know, that you are completely protected. No one can harm you. They'll try - this has to be, otherwise how will you test whether you are absolutely safe or not? So somebody has to try some tricks just to see, and for you to watch how you are successful. Without doing anything you'll be amazed, everything will be cleared out. And you'll not know how things have cleared out, how things have worked out. So the strength comes. ...

The negativity that is around you is not so dangerous as whatever is in you. Today it has become subtler. The negativity has become subtler. It's entered into your being, and be careful - it may anytime topple you. Even one step you do not put right when you are climbing up, you can go down. So one has to be alert, without tension. You have to be alert without tension. And the alertness grows. When the light goes within you start seeing it. Immediately you see, "Oh, that's it! So I, the so and so - that's it." And you know how to correct it and you know how to put it right. And immediately you take to it. Like a good sari now has something fallen on it, immediately you clean it. In the same way we have to be very, very alert - daksha is the word for that. ...

So you have to kill your negativity, you've become as powerful as your Mother. No negativity can touch you. So you can give realization, you've got that power very well; and you can watch your defects more than that of others. And you try to put them out because they're not good, they're not for your benevolence, they're not for your ascent. By that nobody is going to gain. At the collective level it just works automatically. ...

Now another quality that you have: to believe that the Goddess is working through you. In you She resides, you have got the powers, it's penetrated into you - is that you can comfort people, you can cure them, you can give them peace, you can give them bliss. But then what Goddess has done in you is that She has given you the bliss, you have become bliss. Like there's say a cool air-conditioner, you get the cool from there. In the same way if you are emitting bliss, you give bliss to others. But there is no bliss within yourself, but what bliss you can give to others? So a Sahaja yogi has to be a blissful like the Goddess. ...

So to leave certain things into the hands of the Divine is what we call as surrender. And that much of is, if done, then most of your things will work out so miraculously. I mean, you'll be amazed, "How, Mother, how it is worked out? We never expected, how things we got it done?" There's a very, very big force working: the Force, the Energy which is the Source of all the energies, which has created this great universe, which has created this Mother Earth, created this sun, which has created you very delicately. This Force is working. And that Force is looking after you, so proud of you that you have come on the stage now.

So as it is we are today praying to the Goddess that "Help us to fight our negativity within us. Give us Your tiger so that we fight, give us Your lion so we fight." Let us fight all these horrible animals that are within us, these horrible haunting things that are within us, these horrible conditionings we have - you have to get rid of it. Still, still if you watch yourself, lots of conditionings are there, lots things, you see. If you see, there are covered with very thin curtains and you don't see it, but they are there. But let the tiger enter into all these dens and find out. And you enjoy that, riding over the horse, riding over the lion, and riding over the tiger - like a Goddess, why not? After all, children get all the heritage of the mother, don't they? So you have all the heritage available to you. But you have to be worthy, in the sense that you have to know that you are worthy, that's all. You have to just know that you are worthy and that you can do it.

So again today we are here to do this puja, which would have been in Perth but somehow or other it was not so, and is luck for you to have this puja. And it is something of a very deeper nature, very subtler nature. Like your blood it is, because on these seven days they say the Goddess has to wear the red all the time, because it's blood. And the first color you see in the womb of your mother is red - it's the security. One side is the red rag, another side it is the security. So for you it is the security around you. Every place you go, it is there - just feel it. You have entered I must say, entered the Kingdom of God, no doubt about it. You all have entered, so beautifully you are settled down.

May God bless you.
