Grow into perfect being and then have been telling them that the style of Indian knowledge is very different from the Western mind. In the West, you see, if you say something, then they you can see for yourself what he has said want to have an experimental approval. or they have said is the truth. So the They will go to the scientists or to other approach is different. In one way if you people who are equipped with knowledge start going through science, through this, to know what they said in these books is through that, you cannot reach anywhere true or not. They will even judge Christ. and moreover your growth is hampered. They would even judge Moses, They So, what you have to do is to go to this would judge everybody as if they are the knowledge through believing in what they most intelligent and the most capable have said. Whatever Christ has said, you have to believe, whatever Mohammad has people. They will write books after books said, you have to believe, whatever Guru Nanak has said, you have to believe, whatever Gyandeva has said, you have to believe. Now you have to believe like that because you are not of that spiritual level. So accept it. Now do not try to analyse it. Everything you try to analyse and in that analysis you get lost. So once you are a realised soul of that level and then you grow into your fullness, what you call Sampuran, then only you will know whether whatever they have said is true or not and then you can find out. It is very easy, then, to know whatever is said is true or not. For Sahaja Yogis now against them disclosing as if they are those people who have said something, have said out of their mind or something. It is never accepted normally and if it is accepted they become absolutely fanatics. So, now according to Indian style of understanding is that first of all if a great Rishi or great Muni or a great saint has said something, then he has said it, while you have to just listen to that because you are not equally the same, Whatever he has said is his own experience, his own knowledge and you have no business to judge him or to say this is not true, that is not true. You accept it and once you get The Divine Cool Breeze Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Mar Apr. 1999 But from that Word comes, according to Indian Philosophy, another thing what we call as 'Bindu' or we can say Word it is very easy to find out if something is real or unreal, if it is truth or untruth, it is love or hatred. Only through vibrations becomes Naad, is a sound. And then it you can do. becomes the Bindu means one small dot, But going beyond that, I may say, and then from this dot all these five beyond that one has to know what are these vibrations and what are they made of. What is the subtle force which is elements start coming one after another. The first element that comes out is light, "Tej'. Light is the first element that behind these vibrations. We call it Parama Chaitanya, alright. Parama Chaitanya, so what. What happens to you when you get comes out. So the essence of the first element is light. We call it Tej, Tejas. It is parama Chaitanya, is something to be written, of course, in Sanskrit but we understood, the subtlety. should understand that how the light pervades Sahaja Yoga so much and you As I said, we are made of five see the light everywhere. So the first elements, alright? So when you get your element which is light and you can say in awakening, when the Kundalini reaches English the light's subtle thing is, we can Sahasrara and opens out your fontanelle say, enlightenment, you can say. But bone area, you become one with the enlightenment has another meaning. So Divine power. Then this Divine power itself starts flowing through you. A we can say it is Tej, Tej. For example a person who gets realisation has a face which is very radiant. So you can say the radiance. The radiance is the subtlety of the light. So this radiance starts showing connection is established. Now when it starts flowing through you, this Shakti starts flowing through you. Then what happens? The subtle part we should understand. The subtle part is like this- itself and with that radiance people get That these five elements, we are made impressed and they start thinking of, these vibrations gradually start something special about this personality breaking into the subtler form of which which has a radiance. Now you have seen they are made. So the first thing such a my photographs also wherever they are, person has, is the you see, as it is said many a times you find lots of light on me. that word is God, said also in the Bible, That is nothing but the light in me is giving on your face. Radiance starts expressing . the word is God. Now what is this Word? radiance because the light becomes Word is a silent, you can say, silent subtler.

But this is the becomes subtle then it gives radiance and water in us, gives us that luster, that nourishment to make our skin very soft so this is the subtle growth within you that takes place. Your faces also start shining. They too have radiance and they and that softness of the skin becomes very too have a kind of a different complexion, visible. This is the minimum of minimum, I would say. This radiance is to be I would say. But then a person who is a understood, is the subtle of the light of realised soul becomes very soft person, very delicate. When he talks to some which we are made, light in the gross body, in his voice there is warmth or I manner. should say there is where to have that Then after this from the light comes flow, watery flow and coolness of the water. So that is another subtle thing that should be expressed in your behaviour, the second thing, which we call as Vayu in Sanskrit, meaning the air. So the air that we have which is gross air, what is subtle of air is the cool breeze that you get. The cool breeze is the subtle of that air. So the subtle of what you understand as cool breeze is what we call vibrations, the subtle of that is air; which is a part on your skin, on your dealings with others, that you should be like the water, which is mobile, which is cooling, which is soothing, which is cleansing. So this also becomes a part and parcel of your being, once you become a realised soul. and parcel of our making. So this cool breeze is the second thing that you start With this water you have also another thing which we call it as Agni, means the fire. So you also have fire but it is a very silent fire. It does not burn anybody but it burns all the wrong things within you. Whatever wrong things you have it burns and it burns the wrong things in other people also. For example, a person comes getting subtler and subtler. When your growth takes place, all these subtle things start expressing themselves. It is not only that you get vibrations but you get the cool breeze and that is the subtler of air that has been. Then comes the Water. We are also with a great anger towards me. What happens with the fire that is there. Moreover, a made of water. What is the subtle of water is (Sometimes English language, you know, becomes little short ofexpressions) but they call it, I mean which makes the skin, hard skin soft. The skin becomes soft. This is another sign of a realised soul that this anger becomes cooler realised soul cannot get burnt, fire cannot burn, the burning cannot come to him. It is very important to understand. Also if you are doing something wrong, it may but if you are a good Sahaja that his, there is some cream they use, is burn you Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Mar Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze this subtlety of the Mother Earth works. Mother Earth is the one who is giver of Yogi and I should say, perfect Sahaja Yogi, fire will never burn you. We have an example of Sita Ji that she went into the fire but nothing burnt. So this is what virtue to all these flowers and to all these trees and to all that. But it also plays a big part in us. It is not only the Mother one has to understand, understand that once you get to the subtleties of the fire. Earth that exists without our connection and we do not respect the Mother Earth. We have polluted it. We have done all kinds of things, we have removed the trees and we have made a mess out of So the fire and the water both of them become sort of Divine. For example, the water which you touch, water you drink, whatever, you put your hand in the water, the water becomes vibrated. Means What? The subtleties of the water comes in it, the coolness, curing power also her. But she is our Mother and so many subtle things of this Mother Earth come into us. One of them is gravity.

He may English otherwise it would have been very be Divine, He may be very powerful but dangerous. It is, written in that, that He the sufferings he had to go through this World is so cruel that they do not asked Christ; Why have you come to understand spirituality, they do not India' ? So He said, "This is my country, Lunderstand the spiritual greatrness. Not that is why I have come here where only that but there are many factors which people respect spirituality. But I live attack spirituality. They have always done it. Every saint has suffered a lot but, I think among people who do not understand spirituality at all," His conversation with Christ has suffered the most. him is very very interesting because As you know, He was endowed with Shalivahana said that there is more reason all the powers of Sri Ganesha as He is the that you should go back to your country reincarnation of Sri Ganesha, The first of and teach them Nirmal Tatwam i.e. the them was his Innocence.

Still, if you understand, what can you do about it? But with great courage, he took birth in the country where people had no idea of spirituality. and the Indian is that, in the West, killing is a very great profession. On the slightest pretext they kill people. Anybody who is a saint was killed or they called him a mad - Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Mar 12 The Divine Cool Breeze hospitals, no doctors. So, his attention was drawn to people who were suffering physically. Also mentally he tried to prepare them. There are so many beautiful cap. This is the best way to avoid spirituality. While in India if a saint says anything then he is not challenged. Never, But they believe in it because he is a saint, he is a much higher personality than we are. Though there were very nasty people around and they tortured them but as a whole the public, the people respected them. If there are false Gurus normally sermons on the mount. In a way, that time, people were not so materialistic. So they listened to him. You cannot say how many understood?

So from his beautiful life that I have seen, we have to learn that unless and until we are realised This may be one of the reasons why Christ was born in a very very ordinary family. He had no proper bed to sleep as souls, we will be torturing the spirit of Christ. We have seen its happening. Al those who talk of Christ, He has said it a child also. It is all described where He slept, how His Mother lived in a place very clearly- You will be calling me where there were cows and cows. It was Christ- Christ, I won't recognize you. to show that spirituality does not need Very clearly he has said it.

He tried to help His judgement has already started. I have seen it. You can see, in so many countries things are just disappearing.

Those who did wrong in the War also are taken to task. So, in the history also those who Instead of taking to spirituality, where are they going? have done wrong to any community, to They may not be Christians but they respect Christ. They respect Bible. I must tell you, it is a fact. People do not know. They are not Christians means in the sense that they are not baptised but they respect because they understand that there was so much of spirituality about Christ. He any people, they all will be taken to task. They had no business to be aggressive on people and to torture them. This is what is Sri Ganesha's principle acting through Sahajayoga. Christ did not say that but He did say that there will be the last judgement. was the personification of spirituality. On one side He was very kind and That is the beauty of Indians that if compassionate, on the other side, He was somebody is a Hindu or a Muslim, makes really Sri Ganesha because He took a no difference. There were many Muslims who were saints and Sufis in India. They are all respected by everyone whether they are Muslims or Hindus. So for Christ hunter to hit the people who were selling things in the temple. You cannot have business in the name of religion. What a big thing it is to understand! But the Christians did not follow that. They did not. I do not know where have they gone. no body has any objection at all. On the contrary you saw yesterday how they were all happy, because they are realised souls, but even if they are not, in this country Christ is very much respected. They cannot understand. How can they As we have Mahatma Gandhi who talked of spirituality and nothing else, Adhyatam all the time, but his successors scrutinize the life of Christ ? How can they judge him and how can they make vulgar films about him? This they can not who came, put Him somewhere with his spirituality and started a new world, new bear because the respect that they have for spirituality exists very much, more ideas and a new style of life. Those who are supposed to be his followers are now than it exists outside because in the name wanting to have many pubs and also all kinds of things. Can you imagine ? This Congress was started by Mahatma Gandhi and the Congress walas are all of Christ people have done such a lot of wrong. Such a lot of killings have been done. All kinds of wrong things have been accepted. With all this one does not understand how they have judged Christ. doing all this. Where are they going to lead? The beauty of this country is, the Volume : XI Issue 3 & 4 14 Mar Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze For example, what I saw in England, I I was shocked that if some body dies, they know what holiness is. Now of course, they are becoming very modern and Americanised but still they know what is drink. If somebody is born, they drink. Drinking is the only way they have relationships. How can you drink? I asked them. He said, "Why?" Christ created wine. I said, when? In a wedding. I said, "In a Wedding"? That was not wine. That wrong, what should not be done. With Sahaja Yoga, now, I am very happy to say that the foreign Sahajayogis also have become very beautiful. I am surprised because in their culture there is no spirituality, but I do not know how was just the juice of grapes, the grapes that they grew there. We called it Drakshas in our language. How can that they all left all that nonsense and have come out like lotuses beautifully with such beautiful fragrance of spirituality. This is something a miracle. Everybody be wine? It has to be first fermented. It has to be rotten. How can that be? So this is the biggest Dharma to drink. says, Mother, we cannot believe it. How could that have happened ? How could But in India we know, though no body has said anything against drinking, but we know that drinking is a sinful thing. You see it every day. Everybody knows that if you drink you become absolutely out of your mind. There is nothing to be said on a religious platform but everybody knows what drinking is. Not that people abroad you manage this ? I would say that it is the blessing of Christ. They saw how people are working out in the name of Christ in a very degraded manner and they developed a kind of an awareness that definitely something wrong with this. This is not Christ. This is not His holy life they do not know. They also know but are depicting. It is something else and that is how I think in the West there is a greater somehow it has become a fashion. Even in our country it has now been introduced. I do not know how after independence people have started drinking! In every party they drink, also in the name of Christ on Christmas day. It is such an insult to his beautiful holy life. So when they came on this earth perhaps all their powers of urge, greater ascending-force. Yesterday, somebody came and told me, Mother there is no collective meditation. I was very happy to hear it. What is most important is meditation in Sahajayoga, no doubt about it. But the holiness were destroyed. The very good thing about Indians is that atleast they foreigners do meditation much more than Indians do. Very surprising and foreign men and women are very highly equipped, I must say, as far as spirituality is respect. They respect a holy place. That is something good about them and they Mar- Apr. 1999 Volume XI Issue : 3 & 4 15 The Divine Cool Breeze Now we have people here who are concerned, especially Russians. I was surprised that in America, they told me, Mother, these Americans are not interested in spirituality but still their one leg is in the water, where age old problems Sahajayogis. I said, "Why? They do not still exist. And this is the ruin of our have that respect for you. They do not country. We cannot combine together. We meditate, Those who do not meditate are cannot be friends with each other: Of course, not in Sahajayoga, I must say, it they made all the Americans to meditate: has been solved very well. But if you see, I do not know why in this Eastern block, even at the time of Christ, He had people, particularly (Bulgarians) problems with his disciples, especially Russians, Romanians, how they have something happened with Peter and he is taken to Sahajayoga so much! Of course the one who, say, satan reacted in them they had the curse of communism on because I think people fall into the group them. May be that they felt that they have of Satanic forces and he said that he missed something in life and they went removed the Satanic Devils from many deep down into themselves and that is people and put them in the pigs. It is true. how they have achieved it. But I have to There is a Satanic force which is working very strong. The more we develop security of spirituality the more they will not Sahajayogis. I said, "I agree." and tell Indians that they have to meditate. Indians have one or two very bad qualities and one of them is groupism. For develop. example if they are Brahmins, they will sit together, if they are Kayasthas, they in the West and in a different form in the will sit together If they are Banias, they East but I would like to tell them to be will sit together If that is not so then by careful, how to find out the Satanic another name they will group together. Forces in the West? You may not be This is the worst curse of my country, affected by that because you are realised because once you start grouping together, souls but you will have to fight it. You you can never see the good of others and will have to fight it. For example, you can never see the bad of yourself racialism. These grouping together can bring a lot of problems in this country The Satanic force is in a different form Racialism is still very powerful, very very powerful and you have to fight racialism through marrying people who belong to other races. But still I find it difficult to marry a black person to a white At the time of Christ they had very different types of people. Either they were interested in spirituality or they were not. Mar - Apr. 1999 16 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze person. It is an impossible situation. If I immorality. Immorality is so much try that I do not know what happens. accepted in the West. All kinds of immoral Once we had such a marriage, I must tell behaviour is there in that country. Like you, and a white lady, French lady was they say that all these immoral people vote married to a blackman. Instead of this for somebody, he becomes the President French Lady dominating, this black man dominated. So, I was quite surprised, you matter. All kinds of immorality is allowed. know, how could that be. So the reason of America. That is alright, does not But that is absolutely against Christ. was, I think, he was taking the revenge, Absolutely. People do not understand that may be the respite. So first of all immorality will lead them to a kingdom tremendous love and affection has to which, I do not know what to callI, grow between the people. This colour is so skin deep, it has nothing to do with the love inside, nothing. It is so skin deep. Thank God in our country you can have a wife who will be very dark and the because it is even worst than animal kingdom! And they are so immoral that they listen to people like Froud as if they have no brains. They have no spirit to take note of such a man. Only after husband will be very fair or vi-ce ver-sa Sahajayoga, model of Christ life you can but they never look at that from that have. Whatever is passed is over and angle. 1 do not think that this exists in finished. Today, now you are realised souls and morality is your strength. Forget this country, but we have another kind, you see, just it is a typical human problem that he discriminates through ego which, I must say, Christ has tried to fight your about the past and, I am sure, you can get many more people under the banner of Sahaja Yoga, if you lead a very very moral life. ego. He was born in a very humble family and He was not a white skinned man. No. At the same time, another very bad In your language he was brown but in Indian language He was black. When it enemy we have is our Anger. So they are very proud. They will say, I will now get angry, you know, I am very angry. They are not ashamed about it and they go on comes to spirituality, you just see the enlightened one. You do not see what colour they have of the skin. It is very sayıng that I am very angry as if it is not very superficial but this is one of the enemies of the Western life, I think, which wrong to say I am very angry'. And they say, I hate you. I mean, imagine any Indian language if they use this word it would be meaning I am committing sin. So, all this aggressiveness comes from anger. If must be found. Materialism is another one but the worst of all which is agaist Christ, is Mar- Apr. 1999 17 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze somebody has to be angry, he should be angry with himself. Best is to get rid of can also use our fingers to express ourselves, our hands to communicate, But to communicate vibrations, you have to anger. You can pull your hair, you can bite yourself, you can use your pillow to have vibrations, otherwise you cannot hit yourself. That may be the best way of feel another one. If you are at the Agya level, means you are mental, absolutely mental. Then your vibrations also are taking out your anger. But see for what are you angry. Sometime it is absolutely useless, sometimes it has no meaning, sometimes, it is absolutely maddening, stupid. But as long as you stop saying 'I am very angry', that is it. That is the time that you should know that you are falling down completely. dwindling in the sense that you do not know what really they are saying. You canot judge your vibrations because these vibrations are mental. They will say, "Mother, we asked the vibrations." I said, "Really?". But you do not have any vibrations; how can you ask the vibrations; Its very common thing, we asked the vibrations. We found from the vibrations. It is not possible because you are just mental. So Christ did not talk of all the subtle things I have been talking to you because that was left to me. Without realisation how can you talk about subtler things. You cannot. Now what Christ has done is to put Last time I told you about the vibrations. What is it, what does it stand you away from the mental level. That is the most difficult. I am surprised those who follow Christianity have the worst mental possession. They are mentally (Tejas), of water (Jal) and Prithvi, Agni. absolutely like, I do not know what to But I did not tell you of one, very special tell, like the fog of Delhi. We read like one, which is, in English language you mad, we listen to people like mad, we like call it, Ether. But Ether is the energy those who give us feed for our mental which is managed by another Tanmatra, brain. They are so mental, so we call it Akash. It is specially today, argumentative, things go up in their because it is Christ who has sacrificed his intelligence that you have to just say, for and how you get the subtle energy which we call as 'Tanmatra', of our light life to open our Agya Chakra, that we have reached that state of Akash. Without "alright, Namaskar." You cannot fight their mental attitude. That is why Christ him it would not have been possible. We is to be worshipped by people who are can have general communication, like we so very mental; and this mental nonsense can talk to people, we can say things, we has given such a sense of superiority to 18 Mar Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze you become absolutely shocked and stunned. So the best thing for all of you people. Whatever we do, what is wrong, what is wrong? They cannot correct is to become thoughtless. That is the themselves because until and unless you cross his limit of mental being, you cannot see yourself, you cannot introspect. You cannot see yourself. You will see others. These Sahaja Yogis are like this, Sahajayoga is like that, all kinds of things. blessings of Christ. That is what He worked it out for you and, I am sure, if you want to work it out then do not pay attention to others. Do not react, just do not react. Everything they will see they will react. What is the need? What is the But you cannot see yourself because the whole thing is mental. This mental attitude should be completely curbed use? What are you going to do with that reaction? This reaction creates nothing but ripples of thoughts in your mind, I have told you hundreds of times. Now you through the help of our Lord Jesus Christ. But He is also mental, in your brains. Christ is also mental. Now what to do ? have to become absolutely thoughtless, after this Puja. If that happens, I think The one who broke the mental attitude is we have achieved a lot. also a mental. You have made him into That is the biggest blessings Christ has mental, like a statue of stone. So firstly we have to tell ourselves, now do not given you which you should really enjoy. Then only this Akash Tatva in you will work. And how it works through your think, do not think, do not think, do not think, four times, and then you can rise above. This is very importamt. attention. It works with me as you know. With my attention I work out many In meditation you have to go beyond things. How? Just my attention has the mind and thanks to Christ that he is become thoughtless, just thoughtless. It sitting at the Agya to finish off this goes, wherever it goes it works, but if nonsense of mental being. I think people you put your attention for thought all the should stop reading also, perhaps, may time, for thinking, then it does not do the be. Even my lecture becomes mental. work which it is supposed to do What to do? I mean every thing that goes Attention works marvellously, if you are into their head becomes mental, thoughtless, otherwise it does not. So it somehow, and then they ask me has to rise from your ownself than from questions, Mother, did you say this way? others, to the higher level of humanity, I said, I said it to make you thoughtless, where you are in communication with the just to stun you. I did not say this to sit sky which we can call it as the Tanmatra down and analyse. No. No. I said this that or the Essential or the essence of Ether. Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 19 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze pay attention; you can pay attention and you can work it out. In this attention you do not feel what you have got, what you are standing, what you are wearing, what others are doing. No, nothing. Now, you are one with yourself and it is a life full of With Ether you can have television, you can have telephone. It is miracle otherwise. But with this Tanmatra, sitting down here you can do the job. It works. Just attention works. I know that. You also know very well. You do not have to ask me to put the attention. You just put humour, so much of humour, so much of joy, so much of happiness that you do not care for anything that normally people the attention, it will work. The very important thing that you have got, I think that is the first thing, once care for. So as it is, now Sahaja Yoga has worked in so many countries and I am so very proud of you, very proud, and now it is also going to African countries. It's you have no problem, but we start manifesting from the earth element and then from the Agni element and then from the Jala (water) element and then we come to Tejas and the face starts shining. very great satisfaction for me, and you all can do it. You all can work it out. Only But lastly we get this thoughtless awareness by which our attention is thing become thoughtlessly aware. As the blessings of Christ, if it works, you will be absolutely enjoying yourself. absolutely free to do some special work. But if you are all the time thinking, then this poor attention is so busy, so very busy. May God Bless You. You do not have to ask me, Mother please Volume : XI Issue 3 & 4 Mar - Apr. 1999 20 The Divine Cool Breeze SHRI KRISHNA PUJA Discourse (Pravachana) by Her Holiness Mataji Shri Nirmala Devi Cabella 16-8-1998 Today we are going to have Shri Krishna Puja. It is a very important thing about the power of Shri Krishna that gives colour is not suited for Krishna Puja. They should have had another colour for this Krishna Puja So, this goes on from one you a witness state. This is very important also because in these days of Kali Yuga and complete confusion of value system, all kinds of turmoil makes very complex conditions to exist The state of witnessing is only possible through meditation to reach the stage of thoughtless awareness Its combined together. to another, to another, but that means this conditioning is built up within us. All our problems of our conditioning are really horrible. For example, racialism. We have racialism; in America it is very much more, you can feel it, though they don't say. But if you go, say, from Italy youI feel it. If you go from India also you can feel it. Now, why this racialism? What is the reason? Why do we react to this kind of horrible hatred for another community or another colour, which is only skin deep. Now, with rationality you might be able our ego or through our conditioning, to explain 0 God! these people, they are otherwise there is no way to react. absolutely useless or they have come to Anything, now for example, there is a our country and are just troubling us. All beautiful carpet here. As soon as I look these conditionings are there, but if you at it, if I use my ego, I will start thinking see when they talk of immigrants, the now, from where did they get it? How Americans must know that they are much they paid for it ? This is the first immigrants, all of them. America never was their country and they threw away with it. Anger can come in. Why did they all the Red Indians, took away their land bring such a nice earpet ? What was the and very nicely they are the owners of need to put it here? Goes on like that, one America. But the reaction is for those after another. Now, in my conditionings who are not of white complexion, they are all to be condemned, tortured Now, Now, the witness state is such a state where you just do not react. If you react then the problem starts. It's very simple thing to understand that we react through reaction, Then you can go even further if I see these things I would say that this Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 21 The Divine Cool Breeze Mar- Apr. 1999 So, this kind of conditioning is like a if they are by nature violent then also this conditioning of violence comes in. Then plague and moves from one country to they start killing each other. They have another country where some people think killed ruthlessly so many people thinking they are superior and make people look that they have a right to go into any inferior and the people also are there who country and kill everyone and take the accept these kind of situations, accept this land, that is not their own. Actually land kind of a position, where they are doesn't belong to anybody as such, but supposed to be equal. I would say take nobody has right to go and occupy it and throw away the people who do not belong been celebrated by Americans and to that country. Yesterday, was the the example of America, because this has because Krishna is the ruler, Krishna is independence day of India and I have seen the ruler of America. He himself was a the flag going up, our national flag and dark person, himself was on the black the British flag going down. All that has side. In the same country, where he rules, happened after so much of struggle, so the another great thing is that they don't much of sufferings of the people because realize that if all the black or the Asians they came to India, landed nicely there get out of that country now, I don't know, and became the masters. So, this is also a what will happen to them? All their sports kind of a conditioning that comes in a collective way, that you go into anybody's Then if you want to also see the music, country, throw away the people from because these black people, though they there or sort of occupy that place and have black colour, which is alright, as you become the masters. It's like going into have white, they have black colour, but somebody's house, that belongs to they have a voicê which the white people somebody, and throw away the people don't have. They can sing so well that no who are inside and nicely settle there as white people can compete with them, if the owners and the masters because they the full justice is done to the colour. Now, have better intelligence, perhaps the if you take out the Asians all doctors, all cunningness is more in them. With that nurses, all architects, all accountants, all cunnningness if the white people think of them will disappear. Now, what will they can rule the black people then it is remain? are managed by the blacks. If you want to see any American sport, 99% are black. not where you can develop a witness state You have to understand that colour has [can you take the baby out, why is she crying, must be thirsty. Alright] nothing to do, nothing to do with your intelligence, with your value system, with Mar - Apr. 1999 Volume: XI Issue 3 & 4 22 The Divine Cool Breeze your spirit. We are here to achieve our spirituality. The spirit doesn't understand colour because it is so superficial and it very sinful to do that. Even the slightest violence is sinful and this kind of a violence in the eyes of Shri Krishna is absolutely to be punished very well. Now, is so very cruel to condemn someone for this comes through ego. You think because you belong to one clan, another clan you can kill or something like that, a the colour. Same now is happening as the reaction. Every action has a reaction. So what happens is that you find the blacks are reacting. They are reacting and their funny idea comes in into human mind and reaction can be very dangerous. Every you decide that you have a right to kill day I read their reactions are coming up another person. One may say this comes so badly, not only in America, but all over from hatred but hatred is an outcome of they are now thinking they must rise and ego. When the ego starts acting, it collects oppose this domination. But in their own all these things like hatred, also country where they have people of possessiveness, anger, violence. All these different colours, little variation I think, start coming out of the ego which actually blinds the person. You become blind to they are all black people but little variation the fact that there is no need to have violence, no need to hate someone, no need to kill anyone because of this ego may be, so they form groups and they start cutting each other's throats. I have seen on the television how ruthlessly they kill! that is there. Now, one may say Mother how does this ego build up in everyone? I don't know what the difference of colour is, but somehow they have formed Of course, mostly it is due to reactions, also it is due to the conditionings. If the groups and this group will go and kill that and that group will come and kill this. child is told from the childhood that you should hate these people, they are to be It's not like Kaurava and Pandva, it's not two types of people, absolutely opposite, it's not that the negative and the positive is there, it's not. They are all negative whether they are white or black and they start quarrelling and fighting with each other. Now this violence is growing so much, I think, violence is the only weapon hated, they are wrong people, they are bad people, they just start doing that. When they grow up they start showing that hatred is now like a cactus, growing very big and is killing others. There's no justification for this kind of a behaviour by human beings. If they are human beings they have to have human qualities and that is possible only if he learns how to just witness and not they use now to express themselves. You see here something happens somewhere there you find they explode bombs and kill so many innocent people. It's very- 23 Volume XI Issue : 3& 4 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze to react. For example, you see two cocks you can do it. Something wonderful. 1 are fighting, you enjoy that Two cocks remember I was not very old at that time are fighting, people are enjoying One but we were living in a house very close cock dies, they are very happy as if one to the secretariat, where they had a strike which died had killed his parents or did and they were asking for separate ! Mahasrashtra or something. So, the police was standing there and by the order of the Chief Minister they were shooting at every one who was coming. Anyone who passed through that road, they were shooting they were enjoying a shooting game, all of them. I saw this and I just couldn't bear it. I just went down, went something like that Very surprising Now is Spain. even now, there are this bull fights going on. Every year six bull fights, every year, and the hall contains more than ten times we have here, and is always full and now their women have taken to fight the bulls. Now, if the bull is not killed they allow the bulls to go on the street and kill people. This kind of a down and asked the police to stop it. They violent enjoynent is still lingering into the stopped, you will be amazed, they minds of the people. It is so sad to see stopped. Then I carried those people who people who are now talking of humanity. were wounded, up in my house, took out talking of peace, talking of joy, are still their bullets and all that, called the enjoying these violent acts. Either they ambulance and saved them. But for that are doing or they want to watch. So, then you go to these films and things that are being created of a horrible violence and people enjoy it Enjoy such films and such films are again created, one thing was there, I was in a state of witnessing, where you become fearless. There is no fear at all once you learn how to have the state of witnessing, because when you are not witnessing you get disturb, you get upset, you get you may join also this wrong type. But if you are in a state of witnessing, that itself is a power and that witnessing state helps excited, Now, if you really become a witness state, if you are in a witness state then what will happen ? If you watch any such things that are happening, it will subside. If you are in a witness state and if that level then no accident will take place in you to win over so many difficulties of other people. your side. Even if there's an accident then you can save the person, you can help the person very actively That's in a very small scale, but even in a very large scale There's a Chinese story about a saint. So, one king brought his cock to him and said you train my cock in such a way that he should win. He said, alright. So he kept Mar - Apr. 1999 24 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze the cock of the king for one month and criticise then it will go on like this and it when the show started, different cocks will never stop. It's not that. Once you came from different places and they all watch the thing yourself, only just watch, started fighting. This cock just stood up your attention itself is enlightened now. and was watching, just watching and With that enlightened attention you can other cocks got such a fright! They just watch and stop the nonsense that is couldn't understand how this fellow is not there. But we are always conscious that disturbed! He is just watching, he is we are something great and we have to standing, he is doing nothing. So they all do this, we have to do that. Under these disappeared from the arena and he was circumstances what happens is that you declared as the successful one. So, this is become another problem; because what the best way to bring nonviolence. In can you do? You can't do anything but violent places you go and stand steadily. what you can do is to watch. By watching face it, all the things that are happening and by just seeing things as they are you and that witness state acts, acts and stops really develop a very different state of that kind of a violence that is going on. being. Firstly all such people who are just But witness state is not a mental state, it is a state of a spiritual ascent where witness, what happens to them is very you become a witness. Best way to interesting that their memory loss is much practice witness state is not to criticise less because whatever they see becomes like a picture to them, like we can say, any one, not to criticise. I have seen people who are all the time criticising they can tell you even the colour, the others. They can not criticise themselves folding, everything. Whatever they see is so they start criticising others. So much so much in their mind like a photo and so, that they don't even see what's wrong they can tell you exactly what they have with them. They don't even say what seen and your memory is not lost. While wrong they have done to others because if you react on to everything, your they think they have a right to criticise memory becomes horrible. People are so others and they enjoy this criticism very much habituated with reacting, like I well. Actually, there's nothing to be know of one gentleman, he had a habit of criticised. You just watch and see for reacting and I was going with him in the yourself. That's all is your right. You have no right to criticise anyone or anything. advertisement, every name of every shop, But some people think, if you do not car. So, he was reading every every thing, every person. He was just Volume: XI issue 3 & 4 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze 25 if they go away from Germany they will prosper again, so, why not kill them I telling me what is that, what is that, this. that I was wondering, look at this gentle man, he is talking so much, what will mean to such an extent that you can not happen to him? But ultimately I found that all such people, who are all the time reacting, actually have senile decay or may be they become forgetful, very forgetful. But this is not the only loss we have with this kind of a people. When they even see much tilms, you can not see anything ofthat nature that Hitler did But he did it, and people who followed him also did it, without feeling any hitch as if it was a matter of great pleasure or a joy or may be it's a duty. How could they get duty bound to such a horrible thing like are formed into a collective they can be very dangerouus because with that kind of killing thousands and thousands of Jews! a nature they have to do something. They What Jews had done to them, they could must do something because after all they have corrected it Why did they indulge are combined together for a purpose, for, into such kind of violence ? And they we can say. some reactions which all of wanted to finish all the Jews of the world. them have built up. In small things, in big It can be very-very dangerous because things you will find people do like that once you start loosing your witness state, and some people who are very much, very you can fall into negative collectivity. Thus much developed in this kind of behaviour this negative collectivity acts, acts in such can collect lots of people and do any a bad manner that all the conflicts of the amount of harm to others. I would get world, all the problems of the world the picture of Hitler. For nine years this perhaps, are related with this fellow was watching what wrongs Jews are doing. He wouldn't watch what So, as Sahaja Yogis, what should we Germans are doing? What wrong they are do ? We should not react, we should not doing to the society? At that time society react. If you see something wrong. also was very bad because they were alright, you meditate on that, you having all kinds of licentiousness. Now meditate. If you find anything wrong he was noting down these Jews are like happening, alright, you meditate on that. this, they do this, they take money, they If somebody is unkind to you, at that lend money, all kinds of things he got into moment do not react. Afterwards when his head. As a result of that he built up a that person is quietened you tell him or reaction into him that we must somehow tell her because at that time he is so volatile or she is volatile, if you tell, nothing will happen. Gradually I don't say or other see that these people go away from Germany. But then he thought even Mar 26 Volume XI Issue : 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze her eight children just to get sympathy always you can win over such people, but gradually you may be able to make them understand what is wrong. It's wrong to do things which they have been doing. In a way you see the reaction to anything from others. You think of such horrible things people are doing. Now, if you want others to have reaction, you do this, that they want which is stupid also can be very self others to see you, to react, to I don't destroying. Like some people have built in reactions, like you have seen this Mr. Clinton behaving. I mean you can't know, to give you importance, you can say. But what's the use of such an empty understand a man of his stature, of his importance. But people are seeking and it is a very common disease of modern level should have such reactions. But life. All the time, how you should look, must be from his childhood or I don't how you should appear, how you should know how he built it up. Now, he is in trouble. Very shameful. This also is' 1 walk, everything is so stupid! And think perhaps., comes from a very great indulgence into reactions. Why should you react to a woman, I can't understand, very different. None of them are copies, or to a man ? And this is one of the biggest no doubt. Even in the nature you find problems of today's culture specially in leaves of trees, they are so unique you all the developed countries, that all the time men are looking at women, women So, that's how human beings are created, are looking at men. For what ? Perhaps, differently. They are made like that. One they look at women because they want wastage of energy. God has created human beings very can not match them with another leave. has to accept, whatever you are is alright. to see how many women are looking at Why do you want to look like another them or they look at men, perhaps, may person? This kind of reaction is extremely be that how many men, are looking at stupid, I think, that we are spoiling our them. Why ? Why is this happening energy and life for something absolutely because they have some inferiority worthless. Now, you being Sahaja Yogis, complex in them or that they want to your worth is great. You have come here attract the attention of everyone. I mean to emancipate human beings from these horrible things are done these days to silly ideas and foolish ways, the way people are behaving. I don't know whom attract the attention of others, to get the sympathy of others. I mean of the level of your awareness, where it goes, you will be amazed! Like, they say one lady killed to pray but suddenly our attention has become very diversified. Our reactions have become very-very funny. One e 3 & 4 27 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze Valume XI issue doesn't know why people react like that start from it. When you see yourself, you and then why do we worry about what will be amazed, how admiring you are! people react. All these things are not only How happy you are! Now, if you go on individual level but also on a collective beyond that, a little more, then you don't level. As a result, you see new kind of think of both these things. You just value system has been created Now, for become thoughtless and you just stand a Mother, say for example, she will boast up as a person who is respected, whose of how many men are running after her company is wanted, who is loved and who or she would think she is a great actress. I don't know what they think of towhat people react, what they say about themselves and the way they talk about yon, what they think ahout you? You themselves is something surprising. If she should just introspect and see for is a Mother, she has to be a good Mother yourself. After sometime you don't need is cared for So, one should not worry as even introspection. It is a kind of state I'm talking about where Shri Krishna told Arjuna that I will not fight so, in between me and the army-my army-you have to select So, Kaurava said we will take your and she has to look like a Mother But they are so much engrossed or they are so much standing on the basis that they have to be extremely attractive, they have to be the queens or I don't know what. What a position they want to have! Same with the men See, if you have something within you, if there is any quality within you, if there is anything that can qualify you as a great man, it will be showing. You don't have to advertise, you don't army, you give us your army and we will strengthen our army but Arjuna said I don't want army, I want you. You don't want to fight, it's alright because though he will be there in a witness state only, he won't be fighting, but his power will act He doesn't have to fight, he doesn't have to do anything, but his own power which is outwardly silent, but will act and that is how we will win the war. have to pamper it, nothing, it will be showing, So, that indifference if you have towards public opinion I think you can achieve a lot. Most of the frustrations will disappear So, this power of witnessing you all should develop Try to develop it that when you are reacting, stop reaction, stop reaction about everything You will be In Sahaja Yoga also I have seen people who want to show off a lot. I know who does that But they should know that once you do not react to outside you start reacting to inside and introspection will amazed, you will find yourselfa very-very powerful persön in the sense you will have 28 XI 1Issue 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 Mar Volume The Divine Cool Breeze no ambitions, you will have no desires, that you are in that great state of you will have no special fondness or witnessing. But if you are very ambitious, anything but just you are witnessing the even in Sahaja Yoga I have known people drama. It's very interesting to witness also who are very ambitious, they want to because then you understand the humour become leaders. I don't know what else! behind everything, you understand the Actually, it's all a myth, all mythical things stupidity behind everything, you they want to get to and worry their heads understand also how people have been about mythical things. Once you learn so violent and you just laugh at it. You how to witness, you will know the myth, do not get upset, excited, nothing. Just you will know the absurdity, you will laugh at it. After sometime you will be know the maya. So, to overcome the amazed your witness state will increase problems of personality the best thing is and when in the collective, all of you, have to witness. Practice witnessing that witness state you can do wonders everything, before talking, practice without doing anything, without saying witnessing, before giving any comments, anything, without acting.

Any power was that he was a witnessing personality; without doing anything, without taking a sword in his hand, without talking about fighting, he is the person who is in that state, he is the one who brings peace, he brings joy. I will tell you the story of a Sahaja Yogi one who has helped Pandvas to win the who was going to another island, he was living in an island, for Sahaja Yoga work and he found the whole sky was covered with very black clouds, thundering clouds. So, he just looked at them like this and he said, "wait till I come back. war. Not only this, but through his Gita he has tried to tell us what we have to do to win the war over evil. Whole of Gita is the witness state he described about. If you read Gita now from this angle, you will be amazed to find that everywhere he is like a witness describing everything, whatever is this and he will tell you how, how this witness state has helped him to understand also human beings. He is a I'm going to do Mother's work". He went to another island, he did the programme, everything happened and when he came back, he wanted to sleep and suddenly it started raining and thundering. Even the man who was, we should say, not such a nature understands, nature understands Mar- Apr. 1999 Volume: XI Issue : 3 & 4 29 The Divine Cool Breeze whatever you have done, He has written it very well but to understand him one should again have the witness state to see big businessman because first he told you how to become Sthitapragya. Sthitapragya is the ome who is in witness what he has written about Karma Then „State. If you see all these verses on the he has written about Gyana. Gyana means where you know, but that doesn't mean Sthitapragya, iS nothing but a person who is in witness state, how he lives! how hu you go on reading books, never. Gyana means to know what you are! is happy! How he looks at things! It is interesting, very interesting. First he describes that, not like a shop keeper who That means you have to be a Sahaja will first describe the bad thing, but he Yogi by which you know so many things through vibrations. Gyana doesn't mean reading books. By reading books you become more ignorant. So, Gyana means that you must know yourself. If you do not know yourself, you do not know starts with the best Then he goes down to other things and tell you that whatever are the three aspects: The first he talks about is Karma and many people get stuck at that point that whatever Karmas we are doing we will get the Punyas out anything. So, it comes to that you must get your self realisation, You must know of it. But he IN not, he didn't say that. If you know him then you will kmow he never meant that. What he serys is that whatever your self. It is the second thing he has said. Lastly, he talks about Bhakti. Bhakti is devotion. That too is another trick of Karmas yon have to do, you can do it but lecve the results to the divine power. Shri Krishna the way he has described Bhakti. Now, you find people on the street Hare Rama, Hare Krishna' singing. In one word he has concluded, he says you must do Ananya Bhakti. Ananya means Results are from the divine power. Now, may be, some people think that they have got money because they have done good Karmas and start doing all kinds of bad Karmas with that money! He didn't say that. He said. leave the results to the when there is not the other, that means when you have submerged yourself into the Divine. You are one with the Divine divine power because divine power knows best what is for you and se, if you think you have done something good, you then you should do Bhakti, otherwise I have served somewhere, the poor, you don't accept it He says that if you give have done something really good for the. women or anything, the result of that you flowers, 1 will accept. I will accept but leave it at the feet of divine power Means for him real Bhakti is only possible when that you don't build up an ego for you become one with the Divine me some leaves or some fruits or some 30 Mar Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze the love, the love of this old lady living Otherwise it's just a show. So, the third Bhakti part also comes after self in the forest. Her love which was realisation. Now in the Bhakti you see important. there is no value he has? How much you So, when you want to give something paid for it and how you bought? It is not important. For that a great example is of also, it is your love, not how much you Shri Rama when he went to the jungles, pay ? What value you have spent ? Nothing. It is the love with which you do it and that love should be evident. If such things can happen; even with Shri Krishna There was an old lady, from the scheduled cast, means she was one of the Bhilni as they call it, these people live in the jungles. So, she brought some berrys and offered it to Shri Rama and she said that I have tasted all of them and they are not sour. the same thing happened. He went to, they called them Hastinapur, those days, where this Kauravas were living and the king was Duryodhana and he asked him, All of them I have tasted. Now, after tasting something, in India people call it unworthy, not to be eaten. I mean we can you come and stay with us and have food. He said, no, no I'll not be able to come. not taste something we have to give to He goes to another person, Vidura, who somebody else, not done, according to was the son of a maid servant, because Indian culture. Shri Rama took it, he took Vidura was a realised soul. He was a it and he said 'what beautiful fruits!' I realised soul and so he went and ate in his house where he had cooked very have never eaten such fruits. So, simple food. Because he was a realised Lakshmana got very angry; he said, you stupid woman, you have eaten these fruits, and that's what you have given to soul, to him he was the best to have food with him. So, your value system should be based on such things like love. Where you can get love you should be attached to that person where you get a realised soul you should be attached to that and not to worldly people who think no end of themselves and think they are great. They may be but to you, as Sahaja Yogis, is the love of people which should be respected, should be understood and to Shri Rama. Why did you do that? So, Sita was watching, so she asked him why don't you give me some of these fruits. He gave, she said, my God ! What nice fruits these are! I have never eaten such good fruits. So, then Lakshmana also, his temper came down, and he said can you not give me some ? She said, why? You were so angry, why should I give it to you? Ultimately, she gives him that fruit. So, What did he see in those fruits was be felt. But if you have no witness state 31 Mar- Apr 1999 3 & 4 Volume XI Issue The Divine Cool Breeze person is spiritual and that's how you then you will see how much money this will stick to such a person. You will not man has got ? How many cars he has got? What clothes he is wearing? All go for artificial things, but a genuine personality that is there. these considerations will be there, but in a witness state you will understand May God Bless You All ! Thank that you will get vibrations from this person, you will understand that You!! Mar - Apr. 1999 Volume XI issue 3 32 The Divine Cool Breeze SHRI GANESHA PUJA Pravachana By Her Holiness Mataji Shri Nirmala Devi Cabella- 05-09-1998 Today we are going to worship Shri grabbed the people. In India we have you never heard of it, we don't know. Of Ganesha I think I have told a lot about Shri Ganesha and his nature, but still so many of us have not yet realised what are his powers and what he wants. First and foremost thing is that to respect Shri Ganesha is to understand the importance of Chastity. Chastity is not only for the women, it is more for the course some of the men are very very ruined people and they cann't help it unless and until they are put into jail. But for a Sahaja Yogi it is very important to look after our chastity. As I told nou yesterday, it is not necessary to find a girl for yourself or a boy for yourself It is also against the rules of chastity. I am not saying that you should allow only your parents to decide, but let the Sahaja Yoga decide, because you are Sahaja Yogis, you are born after the image of Ganesha who ultimately becomes Christ men to observe. If you have self respect in the real sense of the word you will take to chastity without any difficulties, but if you have no self respect then you run after something which is very low, of a very degrading quality. So it is very important that chastity must be respected, must be understood and must be imbibed. This So what should be your attitude towards chastity is very important. The most important thing that if we get hold on our chastity level then Sahaja Yoga is habit of not observing the proper protocol of the chastity develops from childhood and we have to be very careful. When we very very difficult and it doesn't give you that blessing as you should have. You saw people from Romania and also from Ukraine were singing so beautifully, One of the reasons is that basically they are very very humble people, they are humbled down, so much so that they have given up nonsensical ideas about sex life are in a Ganesha state we should not take to such horrible things I don't know from where people get the ideas, As you see today in the whole world there is a crisis of chastity. In the west specially we have heard of so many cases of child abuse. In a temple of God one should not even take the name of this dirty disease which has The Divine Cool Breeze Volume XI issue : 3 & 4 33 Mar- Apr 1999 and all that. So the humility will teach you power of Ganesha can only be manifested that you are not having your self respect. if you are wise because he is the giver of In Islam they stressed a very big wisdom. But people don't understand importance to chastity, very much, and what this wisdom is, its a big problem. this went to such an extent that Intelligence so-called is not wisdom. It Mohammed Saheb said that you can have can make you very cunning, very five wives or four wives but you don't aggressive and sometimes very subtle have women who are prostitutes Once person who can go on deceiving people, this chastity starts leaving us we don't telling lies, doing all kinds of things and mind anything under the circumstances. believing in themselves that they are very We have seen results of that working out very successful. Success is never the in many people who are very highly criteria of a Sahaja Yogi. Success placed and these highly placed people Sahaja Yoga think that they are something great and surrendering of oneself to Sahaja Yoga. they can overcome the binding of Jesus That is seldom to be found unless and Christ and they can do what they like, go until you meditate every day. Its very subtle means very on misbehaving with women who are important that you must meditate: Those under them. They may do it secretly, they who do not meditate will be lost to Sahaja may do it anyway, but Ganesha watches Yoga Because wisdom could only grow that and he punishes them for what they through your inner inspiration. You can are doing. Its a terrible thing to go into have this inner inspiration only if the these kind of ventures which are not the power of Shri Ganesha manifests. He is fields of Sahaja Yogis. Sahaja Yogis first the giver of your wisdom. In the wisdom of all steady their eyes because it is what you do is to find solutions. Solutions concerned with the power of Jesus Christ. which are peaceful, which are satisfying, But in all the Christian nations, I have which are soothing. seen, people have wandering eyes, very surprising when Christ is their leader, they worship Christ. go to Church, sing the praise of Christ, and they have wandering a whirl wind and many people had to eyes all over These wandering eyes He is the one who takes you to task also, like yesterday I was told there was suffer little bit because of the wind that came and blew off your tents. There is no need to have tents in cannot be representative of the chastity of Christ. this climate What is the need? I don't understand, but they cannot live without a tent, you see. I can Now the second point is that the Mar - Apr. 1999 34 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze your wisdom and find out if it is wise to be like that? With this practice you will reduce your temper absolutely, you will reduce your lust, you will reduce your guilt very much; because once you start sleep outside very nicely on the street also. So there is no need to, sort of fuss about, all these things, to bring the whole household here; there is no need. We should not be afraid of discomfort. If you understanding that there is no wisdom in want to have very comfortable life and feeling guilty your guilt will disappear. Also the worst thing is that we have a great desire to have this or that, to indulge into all kinds of greed. This greed becomes zero as soon as you understand wisely that there is no need; otherwise all you cann't suffer any discomfort, you are no good for Sahaja Yoga. In olden days people used to go to Himalayas, stand on one leg, and they didn't get rea They couldn't get realisation while you lisation. all have got realisation! So one should not try to make oneself very very sort of the time you will be thinking about a lordly person. There is no need to care yourself, about your health, about your for comfort. I can live in comfort and I children, about your house, whatever is can live anywhere, at this age also. So supposed to be yours. But the death what you have do is not to practice proves that nothing belongs to you. You asceticism but to become an ascetic. have come alone and you have to go alone. This is the wisdom which is to be Practising means trouble but if you just become an ascetic from within then you don't bother about these little little things. here and there. But our style is still through your spirituality. Then the moulded by outside world. We haven't greatest thing that happens is the joy. Joy got our own world then we are going as of the dancing of Shri Ganesha. Like a the fashion the wisdom disappears. I child you see him dancing, how joyous imbibed. You can not practice it, you cannot force it but it is to be imbibed he feels and you also feel! In the same way a little child being born within you never tell anybody that you don't have this fashion or that fashion or anything. and you start behaving like a small child. Normally it has no sense of lust, greed, nothing. It knows how to share. So this is the position we say that you become a gana, the army of Shri Ganesha. They are Its your wisdom which will teach you. Wisdom will teach you how to regulate yourself because you have come here to ascend, to achieve a great special place in the realm of spirituality. I must stress again on the power of wisdom. Before doing anything you should just appeal to ganas; they are very powerful and they do all the work of the world. They live in this world but all their source of energy The Divine Cool Breeze Mar- Apt 1999 35 Volume XI Issue go deep into your spirituality. This aim of getting into spirituality, I think you all So Shri Ganesha is the Onkara. He is know, you see, but you do not work out. the first deity created by the Goddess I have told you last time that your because he is auspicious. So first attention has to be inside not outside and auspiciousness is created for our good you should not react All these procedures We are auspicious because of Shri help vou to be wise, to be sensible But Ganesha. Some people create problems the sensible person who is just sensible is from the Devine. in the house. They are always creating problems out of nothing They are not auspicious pecople. Those who are peace makers, those who are loving, are the as far as his own comforts are concerned, money is concerned, all his own health is concerned, everything encompassing him, is not wise person. He is not wise. If you ones who are blessed by Shri Ganesha see a little child who is properly brought What is the wisdom in fighting? You should find out what is the wisdom in fighting. Why are we fightings? For what things? For small small things! Things that up, of course he will always bother about other people. He will find out what others need, what can make them happy. In his all simple methods he will try to please others but not to gain any favour or to show off that he is very generous. But in vou can yourself correct! Why should you fight? If you have a fighting nature, that means Ganesha is against you. Your Ganesha is against you. Your Ganesha is sleeping. That power is no with you. There is no wisdom in it. In this world all the real sense of the word collectivity gives him joy. Today I am going to tell you those great people who have been something more about this collective nature that comes to you through Shri respected, since centuries have been very very wise people. Not hot tempered. Not Ganesha's efforts or we can say his people who were quarrelling Not people powers. Somebody told me that Eienstein who were having lust as the aim of their has already made a story like that, it is a life. Such people will be never discovery that if you all become cool, that remembered by the progeny. But that's is under Shri Ganesha's blessings, then not so important, you as Sahaja Yogis are we all become one. That's his theory, but we also had Philward here who established that when you cool down the You are here on this earth to Helium gas, all the molecules or you can very important. emancipate the whole of humanity. So what should be the aim of your life is to call them atoms, they start moving in a collective way Otherwise they are hitting Volume XI Issue 36 Mar Apr. 1999 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze to be the same style. I have seen people when they come for the Pujas, so many each other, they are beating each other and they are running helter-skelter. In the same way when we have Shri Ganesha's blessings within us, in the real sense of the word, with our wisdom then what of them, how they enjoy each others company, how they try to help each other! Somebody who is, say in Russia or say in happens? We become very much evolved Bulgaria, anywhere, he will write to me Sahaja Yogis. Evolved Sahaja Yogis about the problem he has. So somebody means they have become one. One means from America, without I tell him, without what. One means that they all live for each I inform him, without any information, other. They enjoy each other, they see immediately writes to me, Mother such comfort of each other. For example the and such person is there in Russia, will people who are very rich, people who are you be able to send that person to very poor, people who are sick, people America?" Most of the time it happens who are healthy, all of them combine like this. I don't tell them, I never ask together as one. In Sanskrit it is called them. Even if I ask suddenly there will be Ekakarita. They become one. And this response from so many people, from so oneness shows in your celebrations, when many countries. Mother this is the you all come here you try to help each problem, alright, we will go and do it. other all the time. I have seen nobody For that I must say Austrians are very minds helping each other. I have seen sensitive people in this respect, in this Ekakarita. They went all the way to want to hurt any one. On the contrary Jerusalem, you know, to help the people, to get them realised. I wanted to go to people enjoying each other. They do not they want to be helpful and sensible with each other. Most of your leaders, I have chosen, are very wise, who avoid problems, who do not get into panics. Most of them, I should say. When even Jerusalem but this bombing business may not allow me to go. But the Jerusalem people, I found them to be much more collective because they came to Egypt. I said, 'why have you come here? 'Make friends with the Muslims of Egypt.' Just imagine, I was surprised how could they come here. "No just to make friends. They you people try to destroy Sahaja Yoga, they know you are doing it. So to find out this Ekakarita you have to go deep down into yourself by which you will feel are Muslims so we want to make friends that you are all one, weather you are here or you are in Japan or in America, with them. anywhere. You all think the same way, all help the same cause and you try So making friendship without any you Mar- Apr. 1999 37 Volume: XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze ulterior motive, without any gain is one exposed. This is the time of exposure that of the signs of your Ekakarita. Not only they will loose that great faith on which that you are satisfied with other Sahaja they are working out. All these will have Yogis but you want to bring other Sahaja to just disappear. This is false idea about Yogis in. So many have done that. This is superiority of any religion. How can a something so nourishing. Now as you are religion be superior to another one which being enlightened, you get another person is created by the effort of Shri Ganesha's who is enlightened. Its very great joy auspiciousness. giving. If you give realisation to one person you feel very happy. So many write me Mother now we have got thirty another religion or you fight another persons, twenty persons' and they are creed or you say that this is a lesser race very happy about it that, we have got so many Sahaja Yogis. But doing that, one ideas they drop out This doesn't remain should not develop the ego then you go any more because all these ideas have against Ganesha because Christ you know created problems. Say, in America they He doesn't like it. Egoistical people He first hated the blacks, now the blacks are doesn't like, and He is Shri Ganesha So hating the whites. Its a big turmoil going he doesn't like such people who out of Its not auspicious at all that you fight or we are a higher race. All these false on. Then we have also in India, we had people who were supposed to be untouchables. They were tortured, they their ego want to create an organisation of their own and try to dominate others. This kind of people they don't like. Both of them are the same. There is complete were troubled and they did lot of wrong things, which they should have never done. Its not written in the Shastras. Ekakarita between them. In the same way we too develop that special quality of Because of that now they are acting Ekakarita We forget about so called against the socalled touchables and religions that we have. See now, how they putting them right in their own places. are fighting? All the religions which are So this brings in conflict. Shri Ganesha outside are fighting among themselves. is the one when He gives you wisdom, They are dishonest, they are doing all you understand that nobody is superior kinds of wrong things, you know it very to another person. You are all made by well. Every day its in the newspaper that God and whatever is made by God is you hear about what wrongs they are auspicious and beautiful. Once you start doing. They are little bit successfül but understanding that, this Ekakarita spreads not for a long time because they will be outside also. It spreads to other people, 38 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 Mar The Divine Cool Breeze its not just because of a certain social understanding and social upliftment that than to see to others. You have to you try to be good to others, no. It is meditate and meditate on Shri Ganesha. from inside, inside you do it. Try to correct your own Shri Ganesha Sit on the ground and meditate. Now when we run away from the Mother Earth and we don't touch her, we don't respect This Ekakarita first must work in the family. Its very important. The family which is disturbed all the time cannot her, in a way we don't respect Shri Ganesha. He was made out of Mother create children who are in the state of Earth. He controls the Mother Earth. He Ekakarita. That's why always tell them that don't fight. In the family they are controls all the five elements. Not only that, but He controls you. I liked the film yesterday where they showed a Ganesha walking about with another person who was telling don't do this and don't do this. Its a very beautiful film because it fighting! They can not be Sahaja Yogis. If there is such a fight its better to get out of such a family. So we have sanctioned also divorce. Any man who is flirting with other women or doing wrong things we have asked him to get out of Sahaja Yoga. The reason is, one bad apple can spoil suggests that Ganesha is always there to tell you not to do it. But if you do it then you develop all kind of horrible diseases, many apples. So such a man or such a woman should be kept out of Sahaja Yoga all kinds of horrible faces, all kinds of completely, so that there is a better family family problems. Also you can develop relationship. This is very important in national problems. So this is so important Sahaja Yoga. Your family relationship to understand that such a feeling of, I should be absolutely perfect. I cann't should say, very inauspicious characters understand, if you can't enjoy the are to be avoided. I can't understand how company of your wife, then what are you can people feel so bad about small small going to enjoy in this world? If you can children, some two year old child, some not enjoy the bliss of your family life, you five year old child. If you see a child, even can not enjoy anything else. This very a photograph of a child you feel like close relationship of husband and wife is loving that, you feel like kissing that child. thrown apart because of Ganesha's If the children can not be respected how problem only. If the Ganesha was alright, can you understand the value of Shri there would have been a perfect union, Ganesha. See how sweet they are! How perfect understanding between husband sweetly they behave! They understand and wife. But that means there is definitely you, they understand me. I know even the small children, very small, newly born something wrong with the Shri Ganesha. 39 Mar- Apr 1999 Volume : XI issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze children understand me. So there is of themselves! Their Ganesha is innately with in them, is built in, a kind of absolutely ruined and finished. All such feeling of understanding the love. To people are such leaders of nations, and understand the love also is very difficult people try to follow them in their own for egoistical people. Because they love way, though they may do something themselves, they don't love anybody else secretly! Doesn't matter, people know Or if they love somebody it is out of lust, about it, because in auspiciousness if you may be greed, may be some sort of a are loosing, the whole world comes to association. But love for love sake is only know somehow It will all be exposed possible if your Shri Ganesha is properly because Satya Yuga has come. In this new Yuga, there is light of the truth within us. And this truth can expose all that is We have come so far, we have so nonsensical they have been doing. cleaned out and kept. many Sahaja Yogis all over the world. Of course I worked very hard, I must say, Now truth is the quality of Shri but you also have supported me very Ganesha himself He is the one who is much. I am thankful to you. It is not giving us truth in our brain, it comes to possible in this Western World specially us through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has where there is no consideration of worked so much, He has done so much. Ganesha's principle that you people But look at the condition of the people should come out so well and accept who are supposed to be following him. Sahaja Yoga, as a life for yourself. In Look at the way they are behaving. Let Sahaja Yoga, the most important thing is us atleast show that if you follow Ganesha to worship Shri Ganesha with in you and and Jesus Christ you are in the image of that personality which is something so very spiritual. Spiritual life is the giver of the quality of Shri Ganesha with in you. Its very soothing, its very peace giving, joy. You can not get joy out of anything else but spirituality. You can get some satisfaction, you can get some ego, you its very security creating power. If your Ganesha is alright, nobody can touch you, nobody can destroy you, nobody can upset you, because He is the one who is might feel that something great, but the the giver of peace. The world peace is only way you can get the inner peace and disturhed because we have not joy is Shri Ganesha's manifestation on all worshipped Shri Ganesha, I have seen people in very big positions, incharge of chakras. When you are in a proper state military, incharge of that, not inchaarge on those chakras. you get the joy and that the Chakras He manifests on all the 40 Mar - Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze joy comes to you through Shri Ganesha. These days people are writing horrible forgiven, but Shri Ganesha at a point, books, horrible things. Also, there are when sees people are forgiving, tries to some who are trying to write a very sweet punish. That the limiting point where He things about Shri Ganesha's principle of thinks its not proper to forgive such and understanding, principle of His such person, So for Christ, to forgive is auspiciousness. Very sweetly! I have seen alright, but for Ganesha, He has to expose some people have written some very very and punish the person. So in a way you sweet stories about Him. Its not only the have to know that Christ is very great love stories. Upto a point alright they because He gives us the forgiving power created so many love stories. Now and Shri Ganesha is very powerful something beyond that one has to go. And because He limits our forgiving power. beyond that is this Ganesha principle, We may forgive, anyone, we may say that which is of complete peace, of complete I would like to forgive, but we don't know joy and of understanding of love. The if Shri Ganesha will allow to that extent value of pure love, of giving and also of and Christ accepts that? Because they are taking it. Anyone who gives you the pure the same, they are like the two sides of love should be understood in the right one coin. So we can not depend too much way. I, yesterday, knew that Shri Ganesha on the forgiveness power of Christ has gone off a little bit. I don't know why because there is Ganesha always sitting He was like that? But one has to there and He has in hand, you have seen, understand that there must be some a very powerful weapon. He is the one people within us who do not follow the who is just peace, who is coolness, who principle of Shri Ganesha, and that's why gives you coolness after realisation. You power. Christ has said that you will be these troubles are there. get the cool breeze because of Shri So with sincere heart and a sincere Ganesha, because it is Brahma-Chaitanya, mind if you ask blessings of Shri Ganesha, no doubt, but the one who emits it is Shri He is always ready to give. But if you Ganesha. He cools you down, He brings don't listen to him and if you destroy your you down to very cool, makes you chastity, in anyway, He will punish you, satisfied and a person with complete He will not spare you.

So this exclusiveness also should be given up, which perhaps comes from a kind of a sense of insecurity, I think. It is Shri Ganesha, if there are wrong type of people he drives them out. So don't get frightened of them and don't get upset with them. Try to be one and try to be more attracting people to yourself. keeping them to you, and you will try to improve that. You can not. Those who are in Sahaja Yoga to find wives for themselves or husbands for themselves are finished. This spirituality grows with humility and the humility of Ganesha is told by his venture. Once when His Mother asked him that the one who will go round the earth three times, I will give him a present. So Ganesha thought who is greater than my Mother, not this earth. He had a small little rat on which He used to travel. This shows that He was so trying to manage them and look after humble; on a rat He could travel. No them. I hope you will all now meditate after this to develop your Ganesha qualities and develop that power of Chastity and also of peace and security. pressure on the rat.

If you do not want to enjoy, its alright. Its like a cake, if you 'don't eat you don't eat. But to be sensible and to be acting according to the Divine Laws you should stick on properly with great excitement and great enthusiasm. There are so many marriages in Sahaja Yoga who have been extremely successful They have got children who are born realised, very beautiful children and they have all the families coming to Sahaja Yoga by seeing how the marriages have taken place. I have to give some notes to you that the husband should not think that Lthoroughly and all the brides and bridegrooms look so very happy. It gives me great pleasure and I bless you from my heart. Only. I would say that after marriage try to make a loving, successful marriage. It is very important. For example we saw from one country there were six to seven girls who misbehaved and took a divorce. Because of this kind of thing we have banned that country practically because we think that there is something wrong with these ladies that they have broken, one after another, so because he has married he has a right to dominate the wife, always to sit on her head. Of course, in the west they don't do it but in India they do it very much. many marriages. So must be their empty ego or may be something like that. It has been our experience. Also there are some other countries also. From there are, we find, some very bad instances of They are very very aggressive men. On marriages we have had. So what I said the contrary in the west I find that women that if you don't want to marry, don't are much more aggressive than the men marry. But in Sahaja Yoga it is not for are, which is something I can't yourself or for your wife that you are understand. And because of this some marrying but you are marrying for Sahaja times the marriages fail. There is no need Yoga. So when you fight, quarrel or do to aggrees any one. Need not trouble all nonsense you are only harming the anyone. If it is absolutely incorrigible, if name of Sahaja Yoga. So you have to it is not at all possible to carry on, we enjoy each others love, each others have, in Sahaja Yoga, sanctioned feelings and the joy of a married life. I divorces. But it is a shameful thing. I do have seen some people are so stupid that not like it, to have divorces and then not 43 Mar- Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze you very- much, he will take you away from wrong things. I know its such a blissful thing to be married in Sahaja Yoga but there are some stupid women or stupid men who do not want to enjoy their married life. In that case we will agree to have them divorced but once they are to enjoy the life. So you should get into a beautiful romantic mood now and enjoy your wives and enjoy your husbands and don't start quarrelling from the first day. Now, if you indulge into divorces you bring actually bad name to your family up-bringing, then you bring bad name to your country and as a result other girls divorced we will not allow them to marry in Sahaja Yoga. That is for definite. We don't want to marry anyone who has divorced. If they have divorced with proper reason, its alright, but just for the sake of divorcing if you want to have a who want to get married from your country, because of my experience of such girls who have destroyed their married life, I don't like to marry anyone from that country. It has become nowa practice that w kind of a special treatment, you will not. So I have to tell you that as far as Sahaja we see about six seven years now, ho the marriages have been working out. So if you want to discard completely all the decency and the beauty of Sahaja Yoga marriage then it would have been better Yoga is concerned divorce is out of bounds but in case you want to fight, you want to trouble, you want to destroy you should have decided not to marry. Because there is no obligation on us, as such, its more the obligation on you that you should get a good wife or a good husband. Despite everything supposing others lives, then of course divorce is done. I would request you now to enjoy the company of your wife or your husband. It is for enjoyment that we have started marrying people from this country to that country. Yesterday, I told you that to do it, do not just think of a divorce you don't organise your marriages because I have seen people in the West because we are not responsible. Let us are always thinking at the time of organise your marriages. If you start like marriage how to get divorce. But its a this, all kinds of funny problems will start very shameful thing. Its a very wrong as they have mostly in the western society. thing. It shows no Sahaja life. If you are Because they come here, they want to real Sahaja Yogis, you should be able to select a girl or they select the girl from you don't want to accept it or don't want carry on with your wife or with your their own centres. That means in the husband in a very loving Sahaja manner. Its the blessing of Ganesha on you. He centre they are not meditating but trying to find out a girl or a boy. This kind of a nonsense we want to stop. So if you want will protect your married life, he will help Volume XI Issue 3 & 4 Apr 1999 Mar The Divine Cool Breeze hard for you with all this we have done, with such scrutiny, with such understanding, and you should not make to marry in Sahaja Yoga you don't have to find out your own bride or your bridegroom, because we want to see how us miserable for nothing at all. So I again and again request you that you be in a very happy, mood now. I am very happy, I bless you from my heart and I am sure your marriages will work out. But don't be hasty, take it easy. Everything is to be taken easy, first of all, and see, gently work out your marriage. May God Bless You. Thank You. your vibration match and how this works out. Despite that also marriages fail. But invariably I have seen when the marriages are fixed by themselves they fail. Its just like any other marriage. So the best thing for you is to now make a compromise with yourself that you are not going to be stupid and you are not going to waste your married life I have been crying, you see, with your smoke.

Grow into perfect being and then have been telling them that the style of Indian knowledge is very different from the Western mind. In the West, you see, if you say something, then they you can see for yourself what he has said want to have an experimental approval. or they have said is the truth. So the They will go to the scientists or to other approach is different. In one way if you people who are equipped with knowledge start going through science, through this, to know what they said in these books is through that, you cannot reach anywhere true or not. They will even judge Christ. and moreover your growth is hampered. They would even judge Moses, They So, what you have to do is to go to this would judge everybody as if they are the knowledge through believing in what they most intelligent and the most capable have said. Whatever Christ has said, you have to believe, whatever Mohammad has people. They will write books after books said, you have to believe, whatever Guru Nanak has said, you have to believe, whatever Gyandeva has said, you have to believe. Now you have to believe like that because you are not of that spiritual level. So accept it. Now do not try to analyse it. Everything you try to analyse and in that analysis you get lost. So once you are a realised soul of that level and then you grow into your fullness, what you call Sampuran, then only you will know whether whatever they have said is true or not and then you can find out. It is very easy, then, to know whatever is said is true or not. For Sahaja Yogis now against them disclosing as if they are those people who have said something, have said out of their mind or something. It is never accepted normally and if it is accepted they become absolutely fanatics. So, now according to Indian style of understanding is that first of all if a great Rishi or great Muni or a great saint has said something, then he has said it, while you have to just listen to that because you are not equally the same, Whatever he has said is his own experience, his own knowledge and you have no business to judge him or to say this is not true, that is not true. You accept it and once you get 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-5.txt The Divine Cool Breeze Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Mar Apr. 1999 But from that Word comes, according to Indian Philosophy, another thing what we call as 'Bindu' or we can say Word it is very easy to find out if something is real or unreal, if it is truth or untruth, it is love or hatred. Only through vibrations becomes Naad, is a sound. And then it you can do. becomes the Bindu means one small dot, But going beyond that, I may say, and then from this dot all these five beyond that one has to know what are these vibrations and what are they made of. What is the subtle force which is elements start coming one after another. The first element that comes out is light, "Tej'. Light is the first element that behind these vibrations. We call it Parama Chaitanya, alright. Parama Chaitanya, so what. What happens to you when you get comes out. So the essence of the first element is light. We call it Tej, Tejas. It is parama Chaitanya, is something to be written, of course, in Sanskrit but we understood, the subtlety. should understand that how the light pervades Sahaja Yoga so much and you As I said, we are made of five see the light everywhere. So the first elements, alright? So when you get your element which is light and you can say in awakening, when the Kundalini reaches English the light's subtle thing is, we can Sahasrara and opens out your fontanelle say, enlightenment, you can say. But bone area, you become one with the enlightenment has another meaning. So Divine power. Then this Divine power itself starts flowing through you. A we can say it is Tej, Tej. For example a person who gets realisation has a face which is very radiant. So you can say the radiance. The radiance is the subtlety of the light. So this radiance starts showing connection is established. Now when it starts flowing through you, this Shakti starts flowing through you. Then what happens? The subtle part we should understand. The subtle part is like this- itself and with that radiance people get That these five elements, we are made impressed and they start thinking of, these vibrations gradually start something special about this personality breaking into the subtler form of which which has a radiance. Now you have seen they are made. So the first thing such a my photographs also wherever they are, person has, is the you see, as it is said many a times you find lots of light on me. that word is God, said also in the Bible, That is nothing but the light in me is giving on your face.

So that is another subtle thing that should be expressed in your behaviour, the second thing, which we call as Vayu in Sanskrit, meaning the air. So the air that we have which is gross air, what is subtle of air is the cool breeze that you get. The cool breeze is the subtle of that air. So the subtle of what you understand as cool breeze is what we call vibrations, the subtle of that is air; which is a part on your skin, on your dealings with others, that you should be like the water, which is mobile, which is cooling, which is soothing, which is cleansing. So this also becomes a part and parcel of your being, once you become a realised soul. and parcel of our making. So this cool breeze is the second thing that you start With this water you have also another thing which we call it as Agni, means the fire. So you also have fire but it is a very silent fire. It does not burn anybody but it burns all the wrong things within you. Whatever wrong things you have it burns and it burns the wrong things in other people also. For example, a person comes getting subtler and subtler. When your growth takes place, all these subtle things start expressing themselves. It is not only that you get vibrations but you get the cool breeze and that is the subtler of air that has been. Then comes the Water. We are also with a great anger towards me. What happens with the fire that is there. Moreover, a made of water. What is the subtle of water is (Sometimes English language, you know, becomes little short ofexpressions) but they call it, I mean which makes the skin, hard skin soft. The skin becomes soft. This is another sign of a realised soul that this anger becomes cooler realised soul cannot get burnt, fire cannot burn, the burning cannot come to him. It is very important to understand.

So this is what virtue to all these flowers and to all these trees and to all that. But it also plays a big part in us. It is not only the Mother one has to understand, understand that once you get to the subtleties of the fire. Earth that exists without our connection and we do not respect the Mother Earth. We have polluted it. We have done all kinds of things, we have removed the trees and we have made a mess out of So the fire and the water both of them become sort of Divine.

Today, long that he came to Kashmir where he met time back, Christ was born You one of my forefathers Shalivahana. Its all know the story of his birth and of all very interesting because it is all in Sanskrit and the writer probably did not know Sanskrit. So he has given everything in He is the one who has given us a model Sanskrit language which is not very of Sahajayoga. For he did not live for congenial, 1 am sure, to the Western himself, in no way, but he lived för öthers, neople. Thank God he did not know working out the Agya Chakra. He may English otherwise it would have been very be Divine, He may be very powerful but dangerous. It is, written in that, that He the sufferings he had to go through this World is so cruel that they do not asked Christ; Why have you come to understand spirituality, they do not India' ? So He said, "This is my country, Lunderstand the spiritual greatrness. Not that is why I have come here where only that but there are many factors which people respect spirituality. But I live attack spirituality. They have always done it. Every saint has suffered a lot but, I think among people who do not understand spirituality at all," His conversation with Christ has suffered the most. him is very very interesting because As you know, He was endowed with Shalivahana said that there is more reason all the powers of Sri Ganesha as He is the that you should go back to your country reincarnation of Sri Ganesha, The first of and teach them Nirmal Tatwam i.e. the them was his Innocence. He was the Principle of Purification. He went back Eternal Child, we should say That he After 3 and half years, He was crucified. could not understand the cruelty and I personally think that the big difference between the Western execution hypocrisy of this stupid World. Still, if you understand, what can you do about it? But with great courage, he took birth in the country where people had no idea of spirituality. and the Indian is that, in the West, killing is a very great profession. On the slightest pretext they kill people. Anybody who is a saint was killed or they called him a mad 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-13.txt - Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Mar 12 The Divine Cool Breeze hospitals, no doctors.

While in India if a saint says anything then he is not challenged. Never, But they believe in it because he is a saint, he is a much higher personality than we are. Though there were very nasty people around and they tortured them but as a whole the public, the people respected them. If there are false Gurus normally sermons on the mount. In a way, that time, people were not so materialistic. So they listened to him. You cannot say how many understood?

So from his beautiful life that I have seen, we have to learn that unless and until we are realised This may be one of the reasons why Christ was born in a very very ordinary family. He had no proper bed to sleep as souls, we will be torturing the spirit of Christ. We have seen its happening. Al those who talk of Christ, He has said it a child also. It is all described where He slept, how His Mother lived in a place very clearly- You will be calling me where there were cows and cows.

Those who did wrong in the War also are taken to task. So, in the history also those who Instead of taking to spirituality, where are they going? have done wrong to any community, to They may not be Christians but they respect Christ. They respect Bible. I must tell you, it is a fact. People do not know. They are not Christians means in the sense that they are not baptised but they respect because they understand that there was so much of spirituality about Christ. He any people, they all will be taken to task. They had no business to be aggressive on people and to torture them. This is what is Sri Ganesha's principle acting through Sahajayoga. Christ did not say that but He did say that there will be the last judgement. was the personification of spirituality. On one side He was very kind and That is the beauty of Indians that if compassionate, on the other side, He was somebody is a Hindu or a Muslim, makes really Sri Ganesha because He took a no difference. There were many Muslims who were saints and Sufis in India. They are all respected by everyone whether they are Muslims or Hindus. So for Christ hunter to hit the people who were selling things in the temple. You cannot have business in the name of religion. What a big thing it is to understand! But the Christians did not follow that. They did not. I do not know where have they gone. no body has any objection at all. On the contrary you saw yesterday how they were all happy, because they are realised souls, but even if they are not, in this country Christ is very much respected. They cannot understand. How can they As we have Mahatma Gandhi who talked of spirituality and nothing else, Adhyatam all the time, but his successors scrutinize the life of Christ ? How can they judge him and how can they make vulgar films about him? This they can not who came, put Him somewhere with his spirituality and started a new world, new bear because the respect that they have for spirituality exists very much, more ideas and a new style of life. Those who are supposed to be his followers are now than it exists outside because in the name wanting to have many pubs and also all kinds of things. Can you imagine ? This Congress was started by Mahatma Gandhi and the Congress walas are all of Christ people have done such a lot of wrong. Such a lot of killings have been done. All kinds of wrong things have been accepted. With all this one does not understand how they have judged Christ. doing all this. Where are they going to lead? The beauty of this country is, the 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-15.txt Volume : XI Issue 3 & 4 14 Mar Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze For example, what I saw in England, I I was shocked that if some body dies, they know what holiness is. Now of course, they are becoming very modern and Americanised but still they know what is drink. If somebody is born, they drink. Drinking is the only way they have relationships. How can you drink? I asked them. He said, "Why?" Christ created wine. I said, when? In a wedding. I said, "In a Wedding"? That was not wine. That wrong, what should not be done. With Sahaja Yoga, now, I am very happy to say that the foreign Sahajayogis also have become very beautiful. I am surprised because in their culture there is no spirituality, but I do not know how was just the juice of grapes, the grapes that they grew there. We called it Drakshas in our language. How can that they all left all that nonsense and have come out like lotuses beautifully with such beautiful fragrance of spirituality. This is something a miracle. Everybody be wine? It has to be first fermented. It has to be rotten. How can that be? So this is the biggest Dharma to drink. says, Mother, we cannot believe it. How could that have happened ? How could But in India we know, though no body has said anything against drinking, but we know that drinking is a sinful thing. You see it every day. Everybody knows that if you drink you become absolutely out of your mind. There is nothing to be said on a religious platform but everybody knows what drinking is. Not that people abroad you manage this ? I would say that it is the blessing of Christ. They saw how people are working out in the name of Christ in a very degraded manner and they developed a kind of an awareness that definitely something wrong with this. This is not Christ. This is not His holy life they do not know. They also know but are depicting. It is something else and that is how I think in the West there is a greater somehow it has become a fashion. Even in our country it has now been introduced. I do not know how after independence people have started drinking! In every party they drink, also in the name of Christ on Christmas day. It is such an insult to his beautiful holy life. So when they came on this earth perhaps all their powers of urge, greater ascending-force. Yesterday, somebody came and told me, Mother there is no collective meditation. I was very happy to hear it. What is most important is meditation in Sahajayoga, no doubt about it. But the holiness were destroyed. The very good thing about Indians is that atleast they foreigners do meditation much more than Indians do. Very surprising and foreign men and women are very highly equipped, I must say, as far as spirituality is respect. They respect a holy place. That is something good about them and they 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-16.txt Mar- Apr. 1999 Volume XI Issue : 3 & 4 15 The Divine Cool Breeze Now we have people here who are concerned, especially Russians. I was surprised that in America, they told me, Mother, these Americans are not interested in spirituality but still their one leg is in the water, where age old problems Sahajayogis. I said, "Why? They do not still exist. And this is the ruin of our have that respect for you. They do not country. We cannot combine together. We meditate, Those who do not meditate are cannot be friends with each other: Of course, not in Sahajayoga, I must say, it they made all the Americans to meditate: has been solved very well. But if you see, I do not know why in this Eastern block, even at the time of Christ, He had people, particularly (Bulgarians) problems with his disciples, especially Russians, Romanians, how they have something happened with Peter and he is taken to Sahajayoga so much! Of course the one who, say, satan reacted in them they had the curse of communism on because I think people fall into the group them. May be that they felt that they have of Satanic forces and he said that he missed something in life and they went removed the Satanic Devils from many deep down into themselves and that is people and put them in the pigs. It is true. how they have achieved it. But I have to There is a Satanic force which is working very strong. The more we develop security of spirituality the more they will not Sahajayogis. I said, "I agree." and tell Indians that they have to meditate. Indians have one or two very bad qualities and one of them is groupism. For develop. example if they are Brahmins, they will sit together, if they are Kayasthas, they in the West and in a different form in the will sit together If they are Banias, they East but I would like to tell them to be will sit together If that is not so then by careful, how to find out the Satanic another name they will group together. Forces in the West? You may not be This is the worst curse of my country, affected by that because you are realised because once you start grouping together, souls but you will have to fight it. You you can never see the good of others and will have to fight it. For example, you can never see the bad of yourself racialism. These grouping together can bring a lot of problems in this country The Satanic force is in a different form Racialism is still very powerful, very very powerful and you have to fight racialism through marrying people who belong to other races. But still I find it difficult to marry a black person to a white At the time of Christ they had very different types of people. Either they were interested in spirituality or they were not. 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-17.txt Mar - Apr. 1999 16 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze person. It is an impossible situation. If I immorality. Immorality is so much try that I do not know what happens. accepted in the West. All kinds of immoral Once we had such a marriage, I must tell behaviour is there in that country. Like you, and a white lady, French lady was they say that all these immoral people vote married to a blackman. Instead of this for somebody, he becomes the President French Lady dominating, this black man dominated. So, I was quite surprised, you matter. All kinds of immorality is allowed. know, how could that be. So the reason of America. That is alright, does not But that is absolutely against Christ. was, I think, he was taking the revenge, Absolutely. People do not understand that may be the respite. So first of all immorality will lead them to a kingdom tremendous love and affection has to which, I do not know what to callI, grow between the people. This colour is so skin deep, it has nothing to do with the love inside, nothing. It is so skin deep. Thank God in our country you can have a wife who will be very dark and the because it is even worst than animal kingdom! And they are so immoral that they listen to people like Froud as if they have no brains. They have no spirit to take note of such a man. Only after husband will be very fair or vi-ce ver-sa Sahajayoga, model of Christ life you can but they never look at that from that have. Whatever is passed is over and angle. 1 do not think that this exists in finished. Today, now you are realised souls and morality is your strength. Forget this country, but we have another kind, you see, just it is a typical human problem that he discriminates through ego which, I must say, Christ has tried to fight your about the past and, I am sure, you can get many more people under the banner of Sahaja Yoga, if you lead a very very moral life. ego. He was born in a very humble family and He was not a white skinned man. No. At the same time, another very bad In your language he was brown but in Indian language He was black. When it enemy we have is our Anger. So they are very proud. They will say, I will now get angry, you know, I am very angry. They are not ashamed about it and they go on comes to spirituality, you just see the enlightened one. You do not see what colour they have of the skin. It is very sayıng that I am very angry as if it is not very superficial but this is one of the enemies of the Western life, I think, which wrong to say I am very angry'. And they say, I hate you. I mean, imagine any Indian language if they use this word it would be meaning I am committing sin. So, all this aggressiveness comes from anger. If must be found. Materialism is another one but the worst of all which is agaist Christ, is 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-18.txt Mar- Apr. 1999 17 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze somebody has to be angry, he should be angry with himself. Best is to get rid of can also use our fingers to express ourselves, our hands to communicate, But to communicate vibrations, you have to anger. You can pull your hair, you can bite yourself, you can use your pillow to have vibrations, otherwise you cannot hit yourself. That may be the best way of feel another one. If you are at the Agya level, means you are mental, absolutely mental. Then your vibrations also are taking out your anger. But see for what are you angry. Sometime it is absolutely useless, sometimes it has no meaning, sometimes, it is absolutely maddening, stupid. But as long as you stop saying 'I am very angry', that is it. That is the time that you should know that you are falling down completely. dwindling in the sense that you do not know what really they are saying. You canot judge your vibrations because these vibrations are mental. They will say, "Mother, we asked the vibrations." I said, "Really?". But you do not have any vibrations; how can you ask the vibrations; Its very common thing, we asked the vibrations. We found from the vibrations. It is not possible because you are just mental. So Christ did not talk of all the subtle things I have been talking to you because that was left to me. Without realisation how can you talk about subtler things. You cannot. Now what Christ has done is to put Last time I told you about the vibrations. What is it, what does it stand you away from the mental level. That is the most difficult. I am surprised those who follow Christianity have the worst mental possession. They are mentally (Tejas), of water (Jal) and Prithvi, Agni. absolutely like, I do not know what to But I did not tell you of one, very special tell, like the fog of Delhi. We read like one, which is, in English language you mad, we listen to people like mad, we like call it, Ether. But Ether is the energy those who give us feed for our mental which is managed by another Tanmatra, brain. They are so mental, so we call it Akash. It is specially today, argumentative, things go up in their because it is Christ who has sacrificed his intelligence that you have to just say, for and how you get the subtle energy which we call as 'Tanmatra', of our light life to open our Agya Chakra, that we have reached that state of Akash. Without "alright, Namaskar." You cannot fight their mental attitude. That is why Christ him it would not have been possible. We is to be worshipped by people who are can have general communication, like we so very mental; and this mental nonsense can talk to people, we can say things, we has given such a sense of superiority to 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-19.txt 18 Mar Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze you become absolutely shocked and stunned. So the best thing for all of you people. Whatever we do, what is wrong, what is wrong? They cannot correct is to become thoughtless. That is the themselves because until and unless you cross his limit of mental being, you cannot see yourself, you cannot introspect. You cannot see yourself. You will see others. These Sahaja Yogis are like this, Sahajayoga is like that, all kinds of things. blessings of Christ. That is what He worked it out for you and, I am sure, if you want to work it out then do not pay attention to others. Do not react, just do not react. Everything they will see they will react. What is the need? What is the But you cannot see yourself because the whole thing is mental. This mental attitude should be completely curbed use? What are you going to do with that reaction? This reaction creates nothing but ripples of thoughts in your mind, I have told you hundreds of times. Now you through the help of our Lord Jesus Christ. But He is also mental, in your brains. Christ is also mental. Now what to do ? have to become absolutely thoughtless, after this Puja. If that happens, I think The one who broke the mental attitude is we have achieved a lot. also a mental. You have made him into That is the biggest blessings Christ has mental, like a statue of stone. So firstly we have to tell ourselves, now do not given you which you should really enjoy. Then only this Akash Tatva in you will work. And how it works through your think, do not think, do not think, do not think, four times, and then you can rise above. This is very importamt. attention. It works with me as you know. With my attention I work out many In meditation you have to go beyond things. How? Just my attention has the mind and thanks to Christ that he is become thoughtless, just thoughtless. It sitting at the Agya to finish off this goes, wherever it goes it works, but if nonsense of mental being. I think people you put your attention for thought all the should stop reading also, perhaps, may time, for thinking, then it does not do the be. Even my lecture becomes mental. work which it is supposed to do What to do? I mean every thing that goes Attention works marvellously, if you are into their head becomes mental, thoughtless, otherwise it does not. So it somehow, and then they ask me has to rise from your ownself than from questions, Mother, did you say this way? others, to the higher level of humanity, I said, I said it to make you thoughtless, where you are in communication with the just to stun you. I did not say this to sit sky which we can call it as the Tanmatra down and analyse.

In this attention you do not feel what you have got, what you are standing, what you are wearing, what others are doing. No, nothing. Now, you are one with yourself and it is a life full of With Ether you can have television, you can have telephone. It is miracle otherwise. But with this Tanmatra, sitting down here you can do the job. It works. Just attention works. I know that. You also know very well. You do not have to ask me to put the attention. You just put humour, so much of humour, so much of joy, so much of happiness that you do not care for anything that normally people the attention, it will work. The very important thing that you have got, I think that is the first thing, once care for. So as it is, now Sahaja Yoga has worked in so many countries and I am so very proud of you, very proud, and now it is also going to African countries. It's you have no problem, but we start manifesting from the earth element and then from the Agni element and then from the Jala (water) element and then we come to Tejas and the face starts shining. very great satisfaction for me, and you all can do it. You all can work it out. Only But lastly we get this thoughtless awareness by which our attention is thing become thoughtlessly aware. As the blessings of Christ, if it works, you will be absolutely enjoying yourself. absolutely free to do some special work. But if you are all the time thinking, then this poor attention is so busy, so very busy. May God Bless You.

It is a very important thing about the power of Shri Krishna that gives colour is not suited for Krishna Puja. They should have had another colour for this Krishna Puja So, this goes on from one you a witness state. This is very important also because in these days of Kali Yuga and complete confusion of value system, all kinds of turmoil makes very complex conditions to exist The state of witnessing is only possible through meditation to reach the stage of thoughtless awareness Its combined together. to another, to another, but that means this conditioning is built up within us. All our problems of our conditioning are really horrible. For example, racialism. We have racialism; in America it is very much more, you can feel it, though they don't say. But if you go, say, from Italy youI feel it. If you go from India also you can feel it. Now, why this racialism? What is the reason? Why do we react to this kind of horrible hatred for another community or another colour, which is only skin deep. Now, with rationality you might be able our ego or through our conditioning, to explain 0 God! these people, they are otherwise there is no way to react. absolutely useless or they have come to Anything, now for example, there is a our country and are just troubling us. All beautiful carpet here. As soon as I look these conditionings are there, but if you at it, if I use my ego, I will start thinking see when they talk of immigrants, the now, from where did they get it? How Americans must know that they are much they paid for it ? This is the first immigrants, all of them. America never was their country and they threw away with it. Anger can come in. Why did they all the Red Indians, took away their land bring such a nice earpet ? What was the and very nicely they are the owners of need to put it here? Goes on like that, one America. But the reaction is for those after another. Now, in my conditionings who are not of white complexion, they are all to be condemned, tortured Now, Now, the witness state is such a state where you just do not react. If you react then the problem starts. It's very simple thing to understand that we react through reaction, Then you can go even further if I see these things I would say that this 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-22.txt Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 21 The Divine Cool Breeze Mar- Apr. 1999 So, this kind of conditioning is like a if they are by nature violent then also this conditioning of violence comes in. Then plague and moves from one country to they start killing each other. They have another country where some people think killed ruthlessly so many people thinking they are superior and make people look that they have a right to go into any inferior and the people also are there who country and kill everyone and take the accept these kind of situations, accept this land, that is not their own. Actually land kind of a position, where they are doesn't belong to anybody as such, but supposed to be equal. I would say take nobody has right to go and occupy it and throw away the people who do not belong been celebrated by Americans and to that country. Yesterday, was the the example of America, because this has because Krishna is the ruler, Krishna is independence day of India and I have seen the ruler of America. He himself was a the flag going up, our national flag and dark person, himself was on the black the British flag going down. All that has side. In the same country, where he rules, happened after so much of struggle, so the another great thing is that they don't much of sufferings of the people because realize that if all the black or the Asians they came to India, landed nicely there get out of that country now, I don't know, and became the masters. So, this is also a what will happen to them? All their sports kind of a conditioning that comes in a collective way, that you go into anybody's Then if you want to also see the music, country, throw away the people from because these black people, though they there or sort of occupy that place and have black colour, which is alright, as you become the masters. It's like going into have white, they have black colour, but somebody's house, that belongs to they have a voicê which the white people somebody, and throw away the people don't have. They can sing so well that no who are inside and nicely settle there as white people can compete with them, if the owners and the masters because they the full justice is done to the colour. Now, have better intelligence, perhaps the if you take out the Asians all doctors, all cunningness is more in them. With that nurses, all architects, all accountants, all cunnningness if the white people think of them will disappear. Now, what will they can rule the black people then it is remain? are managed by the blacks. If you want to see any American sport, 99% are black. not where you can develop a witness state You have to understand that colour has [can you take the baby out, why is she crying, must be thirsty. Alright] nothing to do, nothing to do with your intelligence, with your value system, with 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-23.txt Mar - Apr. 1999 Volume: XI Issue 3 & 4 22 The Divine Cool Breeze your spirit. We are here to achieve our spirituality. The spirit doesn't understand colour because it is so superficial and it very sinful to do that. Even the slightest violence is sinful and this kind of a violence in the eyes of Shri Krishna is absolutely to be punished very well. Now, is so very cruel to condemn someone for this comes through ego. You think because you belong to one clan, another clan you can kill or something like that, a the colour. Same now is happening as the reaction. Every action has a reaction. So what happens is that you find the blacks are reacting. They are reacting and their funny idea comes in into human mind and reaction can be very dangerous. Every you decide that you have a right to kill day I read their reactions are coming up another person. One may say this comes so badly, not only in America, but all over from hatred but hatred is an outcome of they are now thinking they must rise and ego. When the ego starts acting, it collects oppose this domination. But in their own all these things like hatred, also country where they have people of possessiveness, anger, violence. All these different colours, little variation I think, start coming out of the ego which actually blinds the person. You become blind to they are all black people but little variation the fact that there is no need to have violence, no need to hate someone, no need to kill anyone because of this ego may be, so they form groups and they start cutting each other's throats. I have seen on the television how ruthlessly they kill! that is there. Now, one may say Mother how does this ego build up in everyone? I don't know what the difference of colour is, but somehow they have formed Of course, mostly it is due to reactions, also it is due to the conditionings. If the groups and this group will go and kill that and that group will come and kill this. child is told from the childhood that you should hate these people, they are to be It's not like Kaurava and Pandva, it's not two types of people, absolutely opposite, it's not that the negative and the positive is there, it's not. They are all negative whether they are white or black and they start quarrelling and fighting with each other. Now this violence is growing so much, I think, violence is the only weapon hated, they are wrong people, they are bad people, they just start doing that. When they grow up they start showing that hatred is now like a cactus, growing very big and is killing others. There's no justification for this kind of a behaviour by human beings. If they are human beings they have to have human qualities and that is possible only if he learns how to just witness and not they use now to express themselves. You see here something happens somewhere there you find they explode bombs and kill so many innocent people. It's very- 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-24.txt 23 Volume XI Issue : 3& 4 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze to react. For example, you see two cocks you can do it. Something wonderful. 1 are fighting, you enjoy that Two cocks remember I was not very old at that time are fighting, people are enjoying One but we were living in a house very close cock dies, they are very happy as if one to the secretariat, where they had a strike which died had killed his parents or did and they were asking for separate ! Mahasrashtra or something. So, the police was standing there and by the order of the Chief Minister they were shooting at every one who was coming. Anyone who passed through that road, they were shooting they were enjoying a shooting game, all of them. I saw this and I just couldn't bear it. I just went down, went something like that Very surprising Now is Spain. even now, there are this bull fights going on. Every year six bull fights, every year, and the hall contains more than ten times we have here, and is always full and now their women have taken to fight the bulls. Now, if the bull is not killed they allow the bulls to go on the street and kill people. This kind of a down and asked the police to stop it. They violent enjoynent is still lingering into the stopped, you will be amazed, they minds of the people. It is so sad to see stopped. Then I carried those people who people who are now talking of humanity. were wounded, up in my house, took out talking of peace, talking of joy, are still their bullets and all that, called the enjoying these violent acts. Either they ambulance and saved them. But for that are doing or they want to watch. So, then you go to these films and things that are being created of a horrible violence and people enjoy it Enjoy such films and such films are again created, one thing was there, I was in a state of witnessing, where you become fearless. There is no fear at all once you learn how to have the state of witnessing, because when you are not witnessing you get disturb, you get upset, you get you may join also this wrong type. But if you are in a state of witnessing, that itself is a power and that witnessing state helps excited, Now, if you really become a witness state, if you are in a witness state then what will happen ? If you watch any such things that are happening, it will subside. If you are in a witness state and if that level then no accident will take place in you to win over so many difficulties of other people. your side. Even if there's an accident then you can save the person, you can help the person very actively That's in a very small scale, but even in a very large scale There's a Chinese story about a saint. So, one king brought his cock to him and said you train my cock in such a way that he should win. He said, alright. So he kept 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-25.txt Mar - Apr. 1999 24 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze the cock of the king for one month and criticise then it will go on like this and it when the show started, different cocks will never stop. It's not that. Once you came from different places and they all watch the thing yourself, only just watch, started fighting. This cock just stood up your attention itself is enlightened now. and was watching, just watching and With that enlightened attention you can other cocks got such a fright! They just watch and stop the nonsense that is couldn't understand how this fellow is not there. But we are always conscious that disturbed! He is just watching, he is we are something great and we have to standing, he is doing nothing. So they all do this, we have to do that. Under these disappeared from the arena and he was circumstances what happens is that you declared as the successful one. So, this is become another problem; because what the best way to bring nonviolence. In can you do? You can't do anything but violent places you go and stand steadily. what you can do is to watch. By watching face it, all the things that are happening and by just seeing things as they are you and that witness state acts, acts and stops really develop a very different state of that kind of a violence that is going on. being. Firstly all such people who are just But witness state is not a mental state, it is a state of a spiritual ascent where witness, what happens to them is very you become a witness. Best way to interesting that their memory loss is much practice witness state is not to criticise less because whatever they see becomes like a picture to them, like we can say, any one, not to criticise. I have seen people who are all the time criticising they can tell you even the colour, the others. They can not criticise themselves folding, everything. Whatever they see is so they start criticising others. So much so much in their mind like a photo and so, that they don't even see what's wrong they can tell you exactly what they have with them. They don't even say what seen and your memory is not lost. While wrong they have done to others because if you react on to everything, your they think they have a right to criticise memory becomes horrible. People are so others and they enjoy this criticism very much habituated with reacting, like I well. Actually, there's nothing to be know of one gentleman, he had a habit of criticised. You just watch and see for reacting and I was going with him in the yourself. That's all is your right. You have no right to criticise anyone or anything. advertisement, every name of every shop, But some people think, if you do not car. So, he was reading every every thing, every person. He was just 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-26.txt Volume: XI issue 3 & 4 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze 25 if they go away from Germany they will prosper again, so, why not kill them I telling me what is that, what is that, this. that I was wondering, look at this gentle man, he is talking so much, what will mean to such an extent that you can not happen to him? But ultimately I found that all such people, who are all the time reacting, actually have senile decay or may be they become forgetful, very forgetful. But this is not the only loss we have with this kind of a people. When they even see much tilms, you can not see anything ofthat nature that Hitler did But he did it, and people who followed him also did it, without feeling any hitch as if it was a matter of great pleasure or a joy or may be it's a duty. How could they get duty bound to such a horrible thing like are formed into a collective they can be very dangerouus because with that kind of killing thousands and thousands of Jews! a nature they have to do something. They What Jews had done to them, they could must do something because after all they have corrected it Why did they indulge are combined together for a purpose, for, into such kind of violence ? And they we can say. some reactions which all of wanted to finish all the Jews of the world. them have built up. In small things, in big It can be very-very dangerous because things you will find people do like that once you start loosing your witness state, and some people who are very much, very you can fall into negative collectivity. Thus much developed in this kind of behaviour this negative collectivity acts, acts in such can collect lots of people and do any a bad manner that all the conflicts of the amount of harm to others. I would get world, all the problems of the world the picture of Hitler. For nine years this perhaps, are related with this fellow was watching what wrongs Jews are doing. He wouldn't watch what So, as Sahaja Yogis, what should we Germans are doing? What wrong they are do ? We should not react, we should not doing to the society? At that time society react. If you see something wrong. also was very bad because they were alright, you meditate on that, you having all kinds of licentiousness. Now meditate. If you find anything wrong he was noting down these Jews are like happening, alright, you meditate on that. this, they do this, they take money, they If somebody is unkind to you, at that lend money, all kinds of things he got into moment do not react. Afterwards when his head. As a result of that he built up a that person is quietened you tell him or reaction into him that we must somehow tell her because at that time he is so volatile or she is volatile, if you tell, nothing will happen. Gradually I don't say or other see that these people go away from Germany. But then he thought even 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-27.txt Mar 26 Volume XI Issue : 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze her eight children just to get sympathy always you can win over such people, but gradually you may be able to make them understand what is wrong. It's wrong to do things which they have been doing. In a way you see the reaction to anything from others. You think of such horrible things people are doing. Now, if you want others to have reaction, you do this, that they want which is stupid also can be very self others to see you, to react, to I don't destroying. Like some people have built in reactions, like you have seen this Mr. Clinton behaving. I mean you can't know, to give you importance, you can say. But what's the use of such an empty understand a man of his stature, of his importance. But people are seeking and it is a very common disease of modern level should have such reactions. But life. All the time, how you should look, must be from his childhood or I don't how you should appear, how you should know how he built it up. Now, he is in trouble. Very shameful. This also is' 1 walk, everything is so stupid! And think perhaps., comes from a very great indulgence into reactions. Why should you react to a woman, I can't understand, very different. None of them are copies, or to a man ? And this is one of the biggest no doubt. Even in the nature you find problems of today's culture specially in leaves of trees, they are so unique you all the developed countries, that all the time men are looking at women, women So, that's how human beings are created, are looking at men. For what ? Perhaps, differently. They are made like that. One they look at women because they want wastage of energy. God has created human beings very can not match them with another leave. has to accept, whatever you are is alright. to see how many women are looking at Why do you want to look like another them or they look at men, perhaps, may person? This kind of reaction is extremely be that how many men, are looking at stupid, I think, that we are spoiling our them. Why ? Why is this happening energy and life for something absolutely because they have some inferiority worthless. Now, you being Sahaja Yogis, complex in them or that they want to your worth is great. You have come here attract the attention of everyone. I mean to emancipate human beings from these horrible things are done these days to silly ideas and foolish ways, the way people are behaving. I don't know whom attract the attention of others, to get the sympathy of others. I mean of the level of your awareness, where it goes, you will be amazed! Like, they say one lady killed to pray but suddenly our attention has become very diversified. Our reactions have become very-very funny. One 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-28.txt e 3 & 4 27 Mar- Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze Valume XI issue doesn't know why people react like that start from it. When you see yourself, you and then why do we worry about what will be amazed, how admiring you are! people react. All these things are not only How happy you are! Now, if you go on individual level but also on a collective beyond that, a little more, then you don't level. As a result, you see new kind of think of both these things. You just value system has been created Now, for become thoughtless and you just stand a Mother, say for example, she will boast up as a person who is respected, whose of how many men are running after her company is wanted, who is loved and who or she would think she is a great actress. I don't know what they think of towhat people react, what they say about themselves and the way they talk about yon, what they think ahout you? You themselves is something surprising. If she should just introspect and see for is a Mother, she has to be a good Mother yourself. After sometime you don't need is cared for So, one should not worry as even introspection. It is a kind of state I'm talking about where Shri Krishna told Arjuna that I will not fight so, in between me and the army-my army-you have to select So, Kaurava said we will take your and she has to look like a Mother But they are so much engrossed or they are so much standing on the basis that they have to be extremely attractive, they have to be the queens or I don't know what. What a position they want to have! Same with the men See, if you have something within you, if there is any quality within you, if there is anything that can qualify you as a great man, it will be showing. You don't have to advertise, you don't army, you give us your army and we will strengthen our army but Arjuna said I don't want army, I want you. You don't want to fight, it's alright because though he will be there in a witness state only, he won't be fighting, but his power will act He doesn't have to fight, he doesn't have to do anything, but his own power which is outwardly silent, but will act and that is how we will win the war. have to pamper it, nothing, it will be showing, So, that indifference if you have towards public opinion I think you can achieve a lot. Most of the frustrations will disappear So, this power of witnessing you all should develop Try to develop it that when you are reacting, stop reaction, stop reaction about everything You will be In Sahaja Yoga also I have seen people who want to show off a lot. I know who does that But they should know that once you do not react to outside you start reacting to inside and introspection will amazed, you will find yourselfa very-very powerful persön in the sense you will have 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-29.txt 28 XI 1Issue 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 Mar Volume The Divine Cool Breeze no ambitions, you will have no desires, that you are in that great state of you will have no special fondness or witnessing. But if you are very ambitious, anything but just you are witnessing the even in Sahaja Yoga I have known people drama. It's very interesting to witness also who are very ambitious, they want to because then you understand the humour become leaders. I don't know what else! behind everything, you understand the Actually, it's all a myth, all mythical things stupidity behind everything, you they want to get to and worry their heads understand also how people have been about mythical things. Once you learn so violent and you just laugh at it. You how to witness, you will know the myth, do not get upset, excited, nothing. Just you will know the absurdity, you will laugh at it. After sometime you will be know the maya. So, to overcome the amazed your witness state will increase problems of personality the best thing is and when in the collective, all of you, have to witness. Practice witnessing that witness state you can do wonders everything, before talking, practice without doing anything, without saying witnessing, before giving any comments, anything, without acting. Only your just start witnessing. It's a very-very presence itself can work it out. I don't satisfying attitude. say that it will have effect on everyone; In Shri Krishna's life, the greatest no, can't say, but most of the people. Any power was that he was a witnessing personality; without doing anything, without taking a sword in his hand, without talking about fighting, he is the person who is in that state, he is the one who brings peace, he brings joy. I will tell you the story of a Sahaja Yogi one who has helped Pandvas to win the who was going to another island, he was living in an island, for Sahaja Yoga work and he found the whole sky was covered with very black clouds, thundering clouds. So, he just looked at them like this and he said, "wait till I come back. war. Not only this, but through his Gita he has tried to tell us what we have to do to win the war over evil. Whole of Gita is the witness state he described about. If you read Gita now from this angle, you will be amazed to find that everywhere he is like a witness describing everything, whatever is this and he will tell you how, how this witness state has helped him to understand also human beings. He is a I'm going to do Mother's work". He went to another island, he did the programme, everything happened and when he came back, he wanted to sleep and suddenly it started raining and thundering.

Sthitapragya is the ome who is in witness what he has written about Karma Then „State. If you see all these verses on the he has written about Gyana. Gyana means where you know, but that doesn't mean Sthitapragya, iS nothing but a person who is in witness state, how he lives! how hu you go on reading books, never. Gyana means to know what you are! is happy! How he looks at things! It is interesting, very interesting. First he describes that, not like a shop keeper who That means you have to be a Sahaja will first describe the bad thing, but he Yogi by which you know so many things through vibrations. Gyana doesn't mean reading books. By reading books you become more ignorant. So, Gyana means that you must know yourself. If you do not know yourself, you do not know starts with the best Then he goes down to other things and tell you that whatever are the three aspects: The first he talks about is Karma and many people get stuck at that point that whatever Karmas we are doing we will get the Punyas out anything. So, it comes to that you must get your self realisation, You must know of it. But he IN not, he didn't say that. If you know him then you will kmow he never meant that. What he serys is that whatever your self. It is the second thing he has said. Lastly, he talks about Bhakti. Bhakti is devotion. That too is another trick of Karmas yon have to do, you can do it but lecve the results to the divine power. Shri Krishna the way he has described Bhakti. Now, you find people on the street Hare Rama, Hare Krishna' singing. In one word he has concluded, he says you must do Ananya Bhakti. Ananya means Results are from the divine power. Now, may be, some people think that they have got money because they have done good Karmas and start doing all kinds of bad Karmas with that money! He didn't say that. He said. leave the results to the when there is not the other, that means when you have submerged yourself into the Divine. You are one with the Divine divine power because divine power knows best what is for you and se, if you think you have done something good, you then you should do Bhakti, otherwise I have served somewhere, the poor, you don't accept it He says that if you give have done something really good for the. women or anything, the result of that you flowers, 1 will accept. I will accept but leave it at the feet of divine power Means for him real Bhakti is only possible when that you don't build up an ego for you become one with the Divine me some leaves or some fruits or some 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-31.txt 30 Mar Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze the love, the love of this old lady living Otherwise it's just a show. So, the third Bhakti part also comes after self in the forest. Her love which was realisation. Now in the Bhakti you see important. there is no value he has? How much you So, when you want to give something paid for it and how you bought? It is not important. For that a great example is of also, it is your love, not how much you Shri Rama when he went to the jungles, pay ? What value you have spent ? Nothing. It is the love with which you do it and that love should be evident. If such things can happen; even with Shri Krishna There was an old lady, from the scheduled cast, means she was one of the Bhilni as they call it, these people live in the jungles. So, she brought some berrys and offered it to Shri Rama and she said that I have tasted all of them and they are not sour. the same thing happened. He went to, they called them Hastinapur, those days, where this Kauravas were living and the king was Duryodhana and he asked him, All of them I have tasted. Now, after tasting something, in India people call it unworthy, not to be eaten. I mean we can you come and stay with us and have food. He said, no, no I'll not be able to come. not taste something we have to give to He goes to another person, Vidura, who somebody else, not done, according to was the son of a maid servant, because Indian culture. Shri Rama took it, he took Vidura was a realised soul. He was a it and he said 'what beautiful fruits!' I realised soul and so he went and ate in his house where he had cooked very have never eaten such fruits. So, simple food. Because he was a realised Lakshmana got very angry; he said, you stupid woman, you have eaten these fruits, and that's what you have given to soul, to him he was the best to have food with him. So, your value system should be based on such things like love. Where you can get love you should be attached to that person where you get a realised soul you should be attached to that and not to worldly people who think no end of themselves and think they are great. They may be but to you, as Sahaja Yogis, is the love of people which should be respected, should be understood and to Shri Rama. Why did you do that? So, Sita was watching, so she asked him why don't you give me some of these fruits. He gave, she said, my God ! What nice fruits these are! I have never eaten such good fruits. So, then Lakshmana also, his temper came down, and he said can you not give me some ? She said, why? You were so angry, why should I give it to you? Ultimately, she gives him that fruit. So, What did he see in those fruits was be felt.

In India we have you never heard of it, we don't know. Of Ganesha I think I have told a lot about Shri Ganesha and his nature, but still so many of us have not yet realised what are his powers and what he wants. First and foremost thing is that to respect Shri Ganesha is to understand the importance of Chastity. Chastity is not only for the women, it is more for the course some of the men are very very ruined people and they cann't help it unless and until they are put into jail. But for a Sahaja Yogi it is very important to look after our chastity. As I told nou yesterday, it is not necessary to find a girl for yourself or a boy for yourself It is also against the rules of chastity. I am not saying that you should allow only your parents to decide, but let the Sahaja Yoga decide, because you are Sahaja Yogis, you are born after the image of Ganesha who ultimately becomes Christ men to observe. If you have self respect in the real sense of the word you will take to chastity without any difficulties, but if you have no self respect then you run after something which is very low, of a very degrading quality. So it is very important that chastity must be respected, must be understood and must be imbibed. This So what should be your attitude towards chastity is very important. The most important thing that if we get hold on our chastity level then Sahaja Yoga is habit of not observing the proper protocol of the chastity develops from childhood and we have to be very careful. When we very very difficult and it doesn't give you that blessing as you should have. You saw people from Romania and also from Ukraine were singing so beautifully, One of the reasons is that basically they are very very humble people, they are humbled down, so much so that they have given up nonsensical ideas about sex life are in a Ganesha state we should not take to such horrible things I don't know from where people get the ideas, As you see today in the whole world there is a crisis of chastity. In the west specially we have heard of so many cases of child abuse. In a temple of God one should not even take the name of this dirty disease which has 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-34.txt The Divine Cool Breeze Volume XI issue : 3 & 4 33 Mar- Apr 1999 and all that. So the humility will teach you power of Ganesha can only be manifested that you are not having your self respect. if you are wise because he is the giver of In Islam they stressed a very big wisdom. But people don't understand importance to chastity, very much, and what this wisdom is, its a big problem. this went to such an extent that Intelligence so-called is not wisdom. It Mohammed Saheb said that you can have can make you very cunning, very five wives or four wives but you don't aggressive and sometimes very subtle have women who are prostitutes Once person who can go on deceiving people, this chastity starts leaving us we don't telling lies, doing all kinds of things and mind anything under the circumstances. believing in themselves that they are very We have seen results of that working out very successful. Success is never the in many people who are very highly criteria of a Sahaja Yogi. Success placed and these highly placed people Sahaja Yoga think that they are something great and surrendering of oneself to Sahaja Yoga. they can overcome the binding of Jesus That is seldom to be found unless and Christ and they can do what they like, go until you meditate every day. Its very subtle means very on misbehaving with women who are important that you must meditate: Those under them. They may do it secretly, they who do not meditate will be lost to Sahaja may do it anyway, but Ganesha watches Yoga Because wisdom could only grow that and he punishes them for what they through your inner inspiration. You can are doing. Its a terrible thing to go into have this inner inspiration only if the these kind of ventures which are not the power of Shri Ganesha manifests. He is fields of Sahaja Yogis. Sahaja Yogis first the giver of your wisdom. In the wisdom of all steady their eyes because it is what you do is to find solutions. Solutions concerned with the power of Jesus Christ. which are peaceful, which are satisfying, But in all the Christian nations, I have which are soothing. seen, people have wandering eyes, very surprising when Christ is their leader, they worship Christ. go to Church, sing the praise of Christ, and they have wandering a whirl wind and many people had to eyes all over These wandering eyes He is the one who takes you to task also, like yesterday I was told there was suffer little bit because of the wind that came and blew off your tents. There is no need to have tents in cannot be representative of the chastity of Christ. this climate What is the need? I don't understand, but they cannot live without a tent, you see. I can Now the second point is that the 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-35.txt Mar - Apr. 1999 34 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze your wisdom and find out if it is wise to be like that? With this practice you will reduce your temper absolutely, you will reduce your lust, you will reduce your guilt very much; because once you start sleep outside very nicely on the street also. So there is no need to, sort of fuss about, all these things, to bring the whole household here; there is no need. We should not be afraid of discomfort. If you understanding that there is no wisdom in want to have very comfortable life and feeling guilty your guilt will disappear. Also the worst thing is that we have a great desire to have this or that, to indulge into all kinds of greed. This greed becomes zero as soon as you understand wisely that there is no need; otherwise all you cann't suffer any discomfort, you are no good for Sahaja Yoga. In olden days people used to go to Himalayas, stand on one leg, and they didn't get rea They couldn't get realisation while you lisation. all have got realisation! So one should not try to make oneself very very sort of the time you will be thinking about a lordly person. There is no need to care yourself, about your health, about your for comfort. I can live in comfort and I children, about your house, whatever is can live anywhere, at this age also. So supposed to be yours. But the death what you have do is not to practice proves that nothing belongs to you. You asceticism but to become an ascetic. have come alone and you have to go alone. This is the wisdom which is to be Practising means trouble but if you just become an ascetic from within then you don't bother about these little little things. here and there. But our style is still through your spirituality. Then the moulded by outside world. We haven't greatest thing that happens is the joy. Joy got our own world then we are going as of the dancing of Shri Ganesha. Like a the fashion the wisdom disappears. I child you see him dancing, how joyous imbibed. You can not practice it, you cannot force it but it is to be imbibed he feels and you also feel! In the same way a little child being born within you never tell anybody that you don't have this fashion or that fashion or anything. and you start behaving like a small child. Normally it has no sense of lust, greed, nothing. It knows how to share. So this is the position we say that you become a gana, the army of Shri Ganesha. They are Its your wisdom which will teach you. Wisdom will teach you how to regulate yourself because you have come here to ascend, to achieve a great special place in the realm of spirituality. I must stress again on the power of wisdom. Before doing anything you should just appeal to ganas; they are very powerful and they do all the work of the world. They live in this world but all their source of energy 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-36.txt The Divine Cool Breeze Mar- Apt 1999 35 Volume XI Issue go deep into your spirituality.

Those who are peace makers, those who are loving, are the as far as his own comforts are concerned, money is concerned, all his own health is concerned, everything encompassing him, is not wise person. He is not wise. If you ones who are blessed by Shri Ganesha see a little child who is properly brought What is the wisdom in fighting? You should find out what is the wisdom in fighting. Why are we fightings? For what things? For small small things! Things that up, of course he will always bother about other people. He will find out what others need, what can make them happy. In his all simple methods he will try to please others but not to gain any favour or to show off that he is very generous. But in vou can yourself correct! Why should you fight? If you have a fighting nature, that means Ganesha is against you. Your Ganesha is against you. Your Ganesha is sleeping. That power is no with you. There is no wisdom in it. In this world all the real sense of the word collectivity gives him joy. Today I am going to tell you those great people who have been something more about this collective nature that comes to you through Shri respected, since centuries have been very very wise people. Not hot tempered. Not Ganesha's efforts or we can say his people who were quarrelling Not people powers. Somebody told me that Eienstein who were having lust as the aim of their has already made a story like that, it is a life. Such people will be never discovery that if you all become cool, that remembered by the progeny. But that's is under Shri Ganesha's blessings, then not so important, you as Sahaja Yogis are we all become one. That's his theory, but we also had Philward here who established that when you cool down the You are here on this earth to Helium gas, all the molecules or you can very important. emancipate the whole of humanity.

I have seen people when they come for the Pujas, so many each other, they are beating each other and they are running helter-skelter. In the same way when we have Shri Ganesha's blessings within us, in the real sense of the word, with our wisdom then what of them, how they enjoy each others company, how they try to help each other! Somebody who is, say in Russia or say in happens? We become very much evolved Bulgaria, anywhere, he will write to me Sahaja Yogis. Evolved Sahaja Yogis about the problem he has. So somebody means they have become one. One means from America, without I tell him, without what. One means that they all live for each I inform him, without any information, other. They enjoy each other, they see immediately writes to me, Mother such comfort of each other. For example the and such person is there in Russia, will people who are very rich, people who are you be able to send that person to very poor, people who are sick, people America?" Most of the time it happens who are healthy, all of them combine like this. I don't tell them, I never ask together as one. In Sanskrit it is called them. Even if I ask suddenly there will be Ekakarita. They become one. And this response from so many people, from so oneness shows in your celebrations, when many countries. Mother this is the you all come here you try to help each problem, alright, we will go and do it. other all the time. I have seen nobody For that I must say Austrians are very minds helping each other. I have seen sensitive people in this respect, in this Ekakarita. They went all the way to want to hurt any one. On the contrary Jerusalem, you know, to help the people, to get them realised. I wanted to go to people enjoying each other. They do not they want to be helpful and sensible with each other. Most of your leaders, I have chosen, are very wise, who avoid problems, who do not get into panics. Most of them, I should say. When even Jerusalem but this bombing business may not allow me to go. But the Jerusalem people, I found them to be much more collective because they came to Egypt. I said, 'why have you come here? 'Make friends with the Muslims of Egypt.' Just imagine, I was surprised how could they come here. "No just to make friends. They you people try to destroy Sahaja Yoga, they know you are doing it. So to find out this Ekakarita you have to go deep down into yourself by which you will feel are Muslims so we want to make friends that you are all one, weather you are here or you are in Japan or in America, with them. anywhere.

How can a something so nourishing. Now as you are religion be superior to another one which being enlightened, you get another person is created by the effort of Shri Ganesha's who is enlightened. Its very great joy auspiciousness. giving. If you give realisation to one person you feel very happy. So many write me Mother now we have got thirty another religion or you fight another persons, twenty persons' and they are creed or you say that this is a lesser race very happy about it that, we have got so many Sahaja Yogis. But doing that, one ideas they drop out This doesn't remain should not develop the ego then you go any more because all these ideas have against Ganesha because Christ you know created problems. Say, in America they He doesn't like it. Egoistical people He first hated the blacks, now the blacks are doesn't like, and He is Shri Ganesha So hating the whites. Its a big turmoil going he doesn't like such people who out of Its not auspicious at all that you fight or we are a higher race. All these false on. Then we have also in India, we had people who were supposed to be untouchables. They were tortured, they their ego want to create an organisation of their own and try to dominate others. This kind of people they don't like. Both of them are the same. There is complete were troubled and they did lot of wrong things, which they should have never done. Its not written in the Shastras. Ekakarita between them. In the same way we too develop that special quality of Because of that now they are acting Ekakarita We forget about so called against the socalled touchables and religions that we have. See now, how they putting them right in their own places. are fighting? All the religions which are So this brings in conflict. Shri Ganesha outside are fighting among themselves. is the one when He gives you wisdom, They are dishonest, they are doing all you understand that nobody is superior kinds of wrong things, you know it very to another person. You are all made by well. Every day its in the newspaper that God and whatever is made by God is you hear about what wrongs they are auspicious and beautiful. Once you start doing. They are little bit successfül but understanding that, this Ekakarita spreads not for a long time because they will be outside also. It spreads to other people, 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-39.txt 38 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Apr. 1999 Mar The Divine Cool Breeze its not just because of a certain social understanding and social upliftment that than to see to others. You have to you try to be good to others, no. It is meditate and meditate on Shri Ganesha. from inside, inside you do it. Try to correct your own Shri Ganesha Sit on the ground and meditate. Now when we run away from the Mother Earth and we don't touch her, we don't respect This Ekakarita first must work in the family. Its very important. The family which is disturbed all the time cannot her, in a way we don't respect Shri Ganesha. He was made out of Mother create children who are in the state of Earth. He controls the Mother Earth. He Ekakarita. That's why always tell them that don't fight. In the family they are controls all the five elements. Not only that, but He controls you. I liked the film yesterday where they showed a Ganesha walking about with another person who was telling don't do this and don't do this. Its a very beautiful film because it fighting! They can not be Sahaja Yogis. If there is such a fight its better to get out of such a family. So we have sanctioned also divorce. Any man who is flirting with other women or doing wrong things we have asked him to get out of Sahaja Yoga. The reason is, one bad apple can spoil suggests that Ganesha is always there to tell you not to do it. But if you do it then you develop all kind of horrible diseases, many apples. So such a man or such a woman should be kept out of Sahaja Yoga all kinds of horrible faces, all kinds of completely, so that there is a better family family problems. Also you can develop relationship. This is very important in national problems. So this is so important Sahaja Yoga. Your family relationship to understand that such a feeling of, I should be absolutely perfect. I cann't should say, very inauspicious characters understand, if you can't enjoy the are to be avoided. I can't understand how company of your wife, then what are you can people feel so bad about small small going to enjoy in this world? If you can children, some two year old child, some not enjoy the bliss of your family life, you five year old child. If you see a child, even can not enjoy anything else. This very a photograph of a child you feel like close relationship of husband and wife is loving that, you feel like kissing that child. thrown apart because of Ganesha's If the children can not be respected how problem only. If the Ganesha was alright, can you understand the value of Shri there would have been a perfect union, Ganesha. See how sweet they are! How perfect understanding between husband sweetly they behave! They understand and wife. But that means there is definitely you, they understand me. I know even the small children, very small, newly born something wrong with the Shri Ganesha. 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-40.txt 39 Mar- Apr 1999 Volume : XI issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze children understand me. So there is of themselves! Their Ganesha is innately with in them, is built in, a kind of absolutely ruined and finished. All such feeling of understanding the love. To people are such leaders of nations, and understand the love also is very difficult people try to follow them in their own for egoistical people. Because they love way, though they may do something themselves, they don't love anybody else secretly! Doesn't matter, people know Or if they love somebody it is out of lust, about it, because in auspiciousness if you may be greed, may be some sort of a are loosing, the whole world comes to association. But love for love sake is only know somehow It will all be exposed possible if your Shri Ganesha is properly because Satya Yuga has come. In this new Yuga, there is light of the truth within us. And this truth can expose all that is We have come so far, we have so nonsensical they have been doing. cleaned out and kept. many Sahaja Yogis all over the world. Of course I worked very hard, I must say, Now truth is the quality of Shri but you also have supported me very Ganesha himself He is the one who is much. I am thankful to you. It is not giving us truth in our brain, it comes to possible in this Western World specially us through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has where there is no consideration of worked so much, He has done so much. Ganesha's principle that you people But look at the condition of the people should come out so well and accept who are supposed to be following him. Sahaja Yoga, as a life for yourself. In Look at the way they are behaving. Let Sahaja Yoga, the most important thing is us atleast show that if you follow Ganesha to worship Shri Ganesha with in you and and Jesus Christ you are in the image of that personality which is something so very spiritual. Spiritual life is the giver of the quality of Shri Ganesha with in you. Its very soothing, its very peace giving, joy. You can not get joy out of anything else but spirituality. You can get some satisfaction, you can get some ego, you its very security creating power. If your Ganesha is alright, nobody can touch you, nobody can destroy you, nobody can upset you, because He is the one who is might feel that something great, but the the giver of peace. The world peace is only way you can get the inner peace and disturhed because we have not joy is Shri Ganesha's manifestation on all worshipped Shri Ganesha, I have seen people in very big positions, incharge of chakras. When you are in a proper state military, incharge of that, not inchaarge on those chakras. you get the joy and that the Chakras He manifests on all the 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-41.txt 40 Mar - Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze joy comes to you through Shri Ganesha. These days people are writing horrible forgiven, but Shri Ganesha at a point, books, horrible things. Also, there are when sees people are forgiving, tries to some who are trying to write a very sweet punish. That the limiting point where He things about Shri Ganesha's principle of thinks its not proper to forgive such and understanding, principle of His such person, So for Christ, to forgive is auspiciousness. Very sweetly! I have seen alright, but for Ganesha, He has to expose some people have written some very very and punish the person. So in a way you sweet stories about Him. Its not only the have to know that Christ is very great love stories. Upto a point alright they because He gives us the forgiving power created so many love stories. Now and Shri Ganesha is very powerful something beyond that one has to go. And because He limits our forgiving power. beyond that is this Ganesha principle, We may forgive, anyone, we may say that which is of complete peace, of complete I would like to forgive, but we don't know joy and of understanding of love. The if Shri Ganesha will allow to that extent value of pure love, of giving and also of and Christ accepts that? Because they are taking it. Anyone who gives you the pure the same, they are like the two sides of love should be understood in the right one coin. So we can not depend too much way. I, yesterday, knew that Shri Ganesha on the forgiveness power of Christ has gone off a little bit. I don't know why because there is Ganesha always sitting He was like that? But one has to there and He has in hand, you have seen, understand that there must be some a very powerful weapon. He is the one people within us who do not follow the who is just peace, who is coolness, who principle of Shri Ganesha, and that's why gives you coolness after realisation. You power. Christ has said that you will be these troubles are there. get the cool breeze because of Shri So with sincere heart and a sincere Ganesha, because it is Brahma-Chaitanya, mind if you ask blessings of Shri Ganesha, no doubt, but the one who emits it is Shri He is always ready to give. But if you Ganesha. He cools you down, He brings don't listen to him and if you destroy your you down to very cool, makes you chastity, in anyway, He will punish you, satisfied and a person with complete He will not spare you. He doesn't have calmness. With that calmness you the idea of sparing. At the level of Christ becomes all one. This Ekakarita is only He thought of forgiving you. But established, oneness is established, forgiving doesn't mean that any sin can be forgiven. No. Its a kind of a controlling whatever country you may be proud of, whatever country you may be living in, 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-42.txt 41 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 Mar- Apr 1999 The Divine Cool Breeze you will see the bad things in that country and he got the present. This shows one thing, that speed is nat the way of success. will not be identified with the bad. This You have to slow down your speed. Apart is the greatest thing of this Satya Yuga from that you have to understand what is that it exposes and you do not support the most important thing, as he understood something that is wrong, which is being the most important thing is to love your done as an aggression. You don't accept Mother, to respect your Mother and know it. And once you don't accept that then that She is the Highest, She is the Greatest. you start becoming one with the people That is how he has been expressed within who are one with you and they all believe ourselves. Once that happens your in the same thing. Their ideas are the spirituality grows. I hope you will work it same, their thinking is the same, their joy out this way now like Shri Ganesha and is the same and they enjoy each other start Ekakarita. 1 don't like people writing very much. They become one and this letters against the leaders, against this man, oneness has to be established fully in against that man. That's not good, there Sahaja Yoga. Some people who are only is no need if you first can be forgiving and interested in making money, who are keeping one with each other. Try to get interested in getting a good crowd or more people and more people. You can some sort of a thing of a very low level, not separate anyone as saying that they are condemned, they are no good Try to get them with forgiveness, with your sense of chastity things will improve. So this exclusiveness also should be given up, which perhaps comes from a kind of a sense of insecurity, I think. It is Shri Ganesha, if there are wrong type of people he drives them out. So don't get frightened of them and don't get upset with them. Try to be one and try to be more attracting people to yourself. keeping them to you, and you will try to improve that. You can not. Those who are in Sahaja Yoga to find wives for themselves or husbands for themselves are finished. This spirituality grows with humility and the humility of Ganesha is told by his venture. Once when His Mother asked him that the one who will go round the earth three times, I will give him a present. So Ganesha thought who is greater than my Mother, not this earth. He had a small little rat on which He used to travel. This shows that He was so trying to manage them and look after humble; on a rat He could travel. No them. I hope you will all now meditate after this to develop your Ganesha qualities and develop that power of Chastity and also of peace and security. pressure on the rat. And while His brother Kartikeya had a peacock, which could fly. He knew he can not go round the world and compete with his brother. So he went round his mother three times May God Bless You, 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-43.txt Mar - Apr. 1999 42 The Divine Cool Breeze Volume XI Issue : 3 & 4 (Shri Ganesh Puja) Talk after the Marriages were performed they don't know what is the joy of a t was such a joyous and a beautiful occasion that we all enjoyed it married life. If you do not want to enjoy, its alright. Its like a cake, if you 'don't eat you don't eat. But to be sensible and to be acting according to the Divine Laws you should stick on properly with great excitement and great enthusiasm. There are so many marriages in Sahaja Yoga who have been extremely successful They have got children who are born realised, very beautiful children and they have all the families coming to Sahaja Yoga by seeing how the marriages have taken place. I have to give some notes to you that the husband should not think that Lthoroughly and all the brides and bridegrooms look so very happy. It gives me great pleasure and I bless you from my heart. Only. I would say that after marriage try to make a loving, successful marriage. It is very important. For example we saw from one country there were six to seven girls who misbehaved and took a divorce. Because of this kind of thing we have banned that country practically because we think that there is something wrong with these ladies that they have broken, one after another, so because he has married he has a right to dominate the wife, always to sit on her head. Of course, in the west they don't do it but in India they do it very much. many marriages. So must be their empty ego or may be something like that. It has been our experience. Also there are some other countries also. From there are, we find, some very bad instances of They are very very aggressive men. On marriages we have had. So what I said the contrary in the west I find that women that if you don't want to marry, don't are much more aggressive than the men marry. But in Sahaja Yoga it is not for are, which is something I can't yourself or for your wife that you are understand. And because of this some marrying but you are marrying for Sahaja times the marriages fail. There is no need Yoga. So when you fight, quarrel or do to aggrees any one. Need not trouble all nonsense you are only harming the anyone. If it is absolutely incorrigible, if name of Sahaja Yoga. So you have to it is not at all possible to carry on, we enjoy each others love, each others have, in Sahaja Yoga, sanctioned feelings and the joy of a married life. I divorces. But it is a shameful thing. I do have seen some people are so stupid that not like it, to have divorces and then not 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-44.txt 43 Mar- Apr. 1999 Volume : XI Issue : 3 & 4 The Divine Cool Breeze you very- much, he will take you away from wrong things. I know its such a blissful thing to be married in Sahaja Yoga but there are some stupid women or stupid men who do not want to enjoy their married life. In that case we will agree to have them divorced but once they are to enjoy the life. So you should get into a beautiful romantic mood now and enjoy your wives and enjoy your husbands and don't start quarrelling from the first day. Now, if you indulge into divorces you bring actually bad name to your family up-bringing, then you bring bad name to your country and as a result other girls divorced we will not allow them to marry in Sahaja Yoga. That is for definite. We don't want to marry anyone who has divorced. If they have divorced with proper reason, its alright, but just for the sake of divorcing if you want to have a who want to get married from your country, because of my experience of such girls who have destroyed their married life, I don't like to marry anyone from that country. It has become nowa practice that w kind of a special treatment, you will not. So I have to tell you that as far as Sahaja we see about six seven years now, ho the marriages have been working out. So if you want to discard completely all the decency and the beauty of Sahaja Yoga marriage then it would have been better Yoga is concerned divorce is out of bounds but in case you want to fight, you want to trouble, you want to destroy you should have decided not to marry. Because there is no obligation on us, as such, its more the obligation on you that you should get a good wife or a good husband. Despite everything supposing others lives, then of course divorce is done. I would request you now to enjoy the company of your wife or your husband. It is for enjoyment that we have started marrying people from this country to that country. Yesterday, I told you that to do it, do not just think of a divorce you don't organise your marriages because I have seen people in the West because we are not responsible. Let us are always thinking at the time of organise your marriages. If you start like marriage how to get divorce. But its a this, all kinds of funny problems will start very shameful thing. Its a very wrong as they have mostly in the western society. thing. It shows no Sahaja life. If you are Because they come here, they want to real Sahaja Yogis, you should be able to select a girl or they select the girl from you don't want to accept it or don't want carry on with your wife or with your their own centres. That means in the husband in a very loving Sahaja manner. Its the blessing of Ganesha on you. He centre they are not meditating but trying to find out a girl or a boy. This kind of a nonsense we want to stop. So if you want will protect your married life, he will help 1999_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_(Scan)_II.pdf-page-45.txt Volume XI Issue 3 & 4 Apr 1999 Mar The Divine Cool Breeze hard for you with all this we have done, with such scrutiny, with such understanding, and you should not make to marry in Sahaja Yoga you don't have to find out your own bride or your bridegroom, because we want to see how us miserable for nothing at all. So I again and again request you that you be in a very happy, mood now. I am very happy, I bless you from my heart and I am sure your marriages will work out. But don't be hasty, take it easy. Everything is to be taken easy, first of all, and see, gently work out your marriage. May God Bless You. Thank You. your vibration match and how this works out. Despite that also marriages fail. But invariably I have seen when the marriages are fixed by themselves they fail. Its just like any other marriage. So the best thing for you is to now make a compromise with yourself that you are not going to be stupid and you are not going to waste your married life I have been crying, you see, with your smoke.
