The Divine Cool Breeze 2011 issue 4 – volume twenty-four number four 1990m shaja Yoya ath

 The audience was small. About fifty employees gathered in the Dag Hammarskjold Auditorium in the early evening. A Sahaja Meditation Society had just two days before been chartered and sanctioned by the United Nations and now the members gathered to hear their keynote speaker. This was a break from their desks, meetings and global concerns. It was a chance to hear the words of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, a chance to look within. The topic was spiritual enlightenment, global peace and a better world. It was June 6th in 1990. The venue was the United Nations headquarters in New York City.

 ONE YEAR WE HAVE COME HERE FOR OUR ASCENT AND EVERY MOMENT OF OUR ASCENT IS A FESTIVE OCCASION 1990 ite a festival of ascent Perhaps the minds of the UN staff on that day were on a European arms reductions promise from the Soviet Union. Or perhaps some were lending assistance to an exodus of UN personnel in the wake of another civil war in Liberia.

 1990 THE WORLD SEEMED FULL OF TURMOIL AND CHANGE. The first anniversary of the demonstrations and massacre in Beijing's Tiananmen Square was being observed that week. No one could anticipate what would be next. Within twelve months that same Soviet Union would no longer exist. It would be replaced by a new Russian federation. There had already been free elections in Romania after the previous year's dismantling of the Berlin Wall. In less than four months, the two Germanys would complete their reunification. And in less than two months, Iraq would invade Kuwait. The United Nations building would soon become an even busier place. Now was the time to pause and listen. On that Wednesday evening, Shri Mataji spoke calmly to the small audience. This was not the general assembly. These people were not decision-makers. They were clerks and administrative assistants. But, as small as the gathering was, it represented the world on another, perhaps more real level. Her tone was intimate. She chose Her words to meet the needs of the audience. And, as always, She spoke in terms that were both global and personal. During Her talk, Shri Mataji spoke of truth and the need to actualize the collective doctrine of the United Nations. She spoke of the Kundalini's role in bringing about that actualization. At the end of the talk Shri Mataji granted Self Realization. She personally greeted everyone and most signed up for follow-up classes. It seemed that the United Nations was finally coming of age. In the week previous to Her appearance at the UN, Shri Mataji had given similar talks in both Miami and San Diego. Early in the year She had spoken in Australia, India, Italy, New Zealand, Russian, Singapore and the United Kingdom. A medical conference in Moscow, a press conference in Calcutta, to Perth, Melbourne, Cairns, Sydney, Bangalore,

 Hyderabad, Jaipur, Leningrad, Auckland and Calcutta – Her appearances for the year were already approaching one hundred and it was still only June. To come, before the year was out: Athens, Bangkok, Barcelona, Berlin, Bucharest, Budapest, Dresden, Frankfurt, Geneva, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Kiev, Kuala Lumpur, Leningrad, London, Los Angeles, Madrid, Milan, Munich, Paris, Prague, Pune, Rome, Sofia, Taipei, Turin, Toronto, Vancouver, Vienna, Warsaw and the villages and towns of central India, all before the New Year's Day – more than two hundred stops in twenty- six countries, all in one year. Her travels in 1990 totalled in excess of 135,000 kilometres – more than three times the distance around the world. In addition to the scheduled talks, there were countless informal events. In homes and airports, halls and schools. Each conversation, every speech was different. And yet each was also the same, highlighted with concern and insight, with humour and love. Every talk served the same purpose. It addressed the need for spiritual ascent. While another person might say, "Be your better self," Shri Mataji reached for an even higher plateau: “Be your true Self." And this was not an unusual year, 1990. But it was pivotal. From the late 1970s, through the 80s and 90s and into the new century, Her travels and outreach, Her efforts to create a better world were to continue. Her travels were largely unchronicled by newspapers and undocumented in the popular consciousness, but they were not unnoticed by those seeking enlightenment in a meta-modern world. In Her own words, when speaking of that year's tour of India, She called it both a pilgrimage and a festival. And so it was for the entire year 1990 and for each of our lives: always a festival of ascent.

 I am gelling a cool breeze from you ttis Sangli India: puja and advice to women january The heritage of our country is spirituality. And this is the nourishment. Only the one-sided growth in the West, due to machinery or whatever you will call it, has ruined it completely. And one-sided growth in this country, and all such countries, where religion has become a blind faith, has also ruined it. But in the centre lies Sahaja Yoga.... I am getting a cool breeze from you. So I want you to be very great Sahaja Yogis – very you should really manifest your powers of wisdom. great.

Every incarnation has done a lot of work and has done also work within ourselves.... What importance you give to everything that you want to do, it is very important. It is the complete attention, dedication and the complete importance that you give to anything that you do. It is very important. If you do not give it the highest priority, it does not work. If it is just by the way, it does not work. So it is important to understand that if you have to gain anything in this puja, you have to give it the highest priority. And then just before puja, if your mind is telling you or doubting, just tell him to stop because that mind can act against you. So for the puja, you should be all prepared in a way, in a receptive way and receive it. JANUARY 8: GANAPATIPULE – MARRIAGES JANUARY 9: GANAPATIPULE – TALKS AND INTERVIEW

 lbveze coo Shri Mataji arrived at the main pendal at midday. A picture of dignity and serenity, She walked up the clay steps, unaccompanied, lightly lifting Her white cotton sari from Her painted feet. She then took a seat on the beautifully carved Indian throne, the lion on Her left and the other conveyance of the Goddess, the tiger, supporting Her right arm. To our surprise and wonder, Shri Mataji gave each of us the beautiful gift of a shawl, each unique, a different design and colour combination. Shri Mataji came and spoke to the grooms and really the tone of that beautiful speech gave the feeling of a For the filming of a documentary for Indian television, Shri Mataji came to the beach. talk by a great empress to Her warriors on the eve of The water and sky looked like they never had a great battle. She stood in the middle of that small pendal, Her right hand on the central support, gently before – the water glassy, with an offshore breeze. The sky was full of vibrations and the surveying their sparkling faces. There was so much atmosphere one of joyful anticipation.

 board the ship JANUARY 13: KALWE – ENTERTAINMENT EVENING 1.4 Kalwe India: Sankranti Puja january We are at a point where we have to trigger a new jump. A new flight we have to take and for this flight we have to see that we really become very light in our ideas, in our thoughts and in our conditionings. We are so much full of conditionings. All kinds of conditionings are on us. They are so deep that sometimes I fail to understand human beings. I just do not understand how they get stuck to things which are of no value, which have no sense and they get lost. In this higher jump that we are going to take, many will be left behind as a result, those who won't be able to come out of that.... Fully dedicate yourself to meditation and surrender yourself to collectivity and every day you must think in the evening what have I done for Sahaja Yoga? What have I done for myself? Please try to understand that there is a very big jump that we have to take. It is to be triggered and for that I would like you to be ready to be absolutely prepared because in this jump many might be lost and many might be just left behind because they could not get over their conditionings. The conditionings are of various types, as you know very well of ignorance, blind faith and all other things that we have gone through. Also we have conditionings of our country, of our race, of our styles and so many other things by which we judge others. But we have to judge ourselves, that are we in a Sahaj culture or not? If we are not in the Sahaj culture, then it is going to be very difficult that you board the ship which is going to take us all.... So far I am very happy that whatever I have been telling you and whatever I have been guiding you, you have accepted it very well, calmly and sweetly and that you have tried to imbibe it in your lifestyle. Actually, after some time, I do not think that I will have to tell you. You will get your own light to see for yourself what is right and what is wrong. But still, I would say for all the western people especially, that you must open your heart in the puja, in the music, in anything. Just see that you open your heart. If you cannot open your heart, this won't work because this works to the spirit, which resides in your heart. So please try to open your heart for everything.

 In the evening, while watching a variety show sponsored by local factory workers' children, Shri Mataji surprised us by arriving mid-performance. She asked the European musicians, who had performed so well all tour, to take the stage and sing songs to awaken the Kundalini. Sankranti Puja was held the next morning inside a grassy courtyard and Shri Mataji, radiant, addressed us from Her seat at the top of the temple steps. She urged us to open our hearts and repeatedly urged us to be extremely dedicated and sincere about our spiritual growth. And, with the Shri Ganesha Puja, the atmosphere built, first solemn and royal and then it welled over with joy. In the protective shell of love, it was less difficult to take leave of our Mother and depart to our countries. The last vision was one of Shri Mataji sitting atop the marble steps and Sahaja Yogis embracing one another as family down the long avenue outside the puja gardens. individually about our spiritual and personal On 28th February 1990, almost twenty Sahaja problems. With infinite love and patience, She Yogis from Malaysia took the short shuttle attended to us, teaching and advising us as the flight from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore to meet Mother when She arrived in Singapore, in the Counsellor, the Comforter and the Redeemer. As we sat on the floor around Her, we were all evening on Her way from Bombay to Perth. As we waited at the exit of the ramp leading from given the opportunity to massage Her Lotus the plane, the vibrations became stronger and Feet. Shri Mataji demonstrated Her love and stronger as Shri Mataji approached us. The joy compassion yet again when it was announced that Her flight to Perth would be delayed by bubbled over as Mother emerged. A collective garland of braided jasmine flowers was presented one hour. There were cheers all around that Mother had given us the joy of Her company and She then accepted our individual roses. We found a nice place near the indoor waterfall for an extra hour. Afterwards, Mother, with and, as we sat around Mother's Feet, She spoke all of us in tow, went to the shops to buy to us. In Her talk She said that Sahaja Yoga is some presents for Her Australian tour and, spreading fast because people are now becoming in a typical gesture of Her love, She bought chocolates for all of us. more aware. Commenting on the situation in China, Mother said that the Chinese government claimed to follow Confucius, who taught that humanity is important, that collectivity is important. However, without Realization, how can one understand collectivity, She asked. Otherwise how could they kill their own people. Mother said that if they were realized souls, they would not have killed the student demonstrators [in Tiananmen Square in June 1989]. Mother expressed regret that China has got a very bad name from this o incident. Mother then graciously dealt with us

 one culture Perth Australia: talk to Sahaja Yogis march Coming back to the basics in Sahaja Yoga, we have to know that in Sahaja Yoga we have no hard and fast rules for anything because you are awakened people, you are saints and you know what is good for you. But you must keep that quality of saintliness within you and certain things you should avoid if possible. And if not that, see what is wrong with your centres. If something is wrong with your centres, you start getting into problems, getting into ideas, some things which are destructive. So it is best to judge yourself first of all how are your vibrations... There are certain things missing in Indian culture, something missing in Western culture. We have to understand this, that both are wrong and we are not going to have them – and it will work out very well. For us, there is only one culture and that is Sahaja culture. MARCH 2: PERTH – TALK TO SAHAJA YOGIS Melbourne Australia: talk to Sahaja Yogis march A human being is a social being. He is not a person who wants to live in a single way. That is why if you jail someone, if somebody is in jail, it becomes a punishment. Though in the SO jail you have all the conveniences, everything is there, on the contrary, you do not have to work so hard, you get your food all right, everything is fine, somebody cooks for you, but it is a punishment. And for our ascent it is very important to be collective. It is said that wherever you are together, I reside there.... We understand the essence, now we are on the essence because we are on the Kundalini. Then we must know the essence of joy. And the joy is in sharing.... So you see this love, this affection, this deeper understanding that we have within ourselves, that we are in love with each other, where can we express it...? All over the world we have people. It is like one big body. And as soon as there is a problem with the eyes, some hand is there to help us. That is how we are going to work it out. Do you understand the importance of Sahaja Yoga at this juncture? It is not by the way. It is very important, an extremely important thing. I do not know if you really know about it. Such work was never done in the history of spirituality, in the history of this world or the universe whatsoever. And this is a kind of a mass transformation that is taking place which is going to transform the whole world.

 The Sahaja Yogis can enjoy each other very well. It is so sweet, it is, and so beautiful that all can you live together like that. I wish I could all the time be with all. But it is not in My fate. I have to you travel from one place to another. I left them there [in Singapore]. I was so much wrenched in My heart really and I was so heavy that I just closed My eyes trying to get over it. And there I find all the flowers smiling at Me at the airport and the whole thing finished, neutralized. I said, "Now these were also waiting. After all, I have to come for them here." SHRI MATAJI, MARCH 4TH For many yogis it had been three years since they had seen Shri Mataji. For those who were not fortunate Right on time, Shri Mataji arrived from Perth to a warm reception. She spent much enough to go on any tours, it had been over five Perth is one of the most isolated cities in the world. time talking to everyone, receiving everyone's It is over three thousand miles from the main flowers. She commented on how big all the population centres on Australia's east coast. children had grown. We were all invited back to where She was staying. Shri Mataji came to the garden and talked to us. She said Sahaja Yogis should live together. She said if Sahaja Yogis cannot live together, how can the world live together? When we live together, we protect each other. The negativity has less of from SINGAPORE an effect when we are together. Cairns to HONG KONG Brisbane Perth Sydney Canberra Auckland N. Melbourne The public programs were held over two nights to the accompani- ment of the Nagpur musicians. Shri Mataji spoke for a very o short time before answering questions from the crowd and giving Realization to the people. It seemed that the time She had spared with Her short discourse was saved to meet every person after the program. She greeted each seeker, the look of love and recognition on Her face. It was like She was meeting an old lost friend. %24

And I missed very you all much. I know you are very far away from the rest of them, but you are always in My heart you shouldn't worry about the distance.... If we live on a superficial level of Sahaja and Yoga, then we cannot do much for ourselves nor for the country and it is just a wasteful CO life, neither here nor there. It is like a seed, which is sprouted and has not grown into the tree. So first of all, we have to learn that we have to become very deep people – very deep. We must reach our depth.... It is My humble request that all of you should know that I am to act in a sensible way, up and your Mother, directly.... I would like New Zealand to come so that people should say that New Zealanders are the wisest in Sahaja Yoga. MARCH 14: AUCKLAND PUBLIC PROGRAM 15 MARCH 15: SYDNEY UNIVERSITY RELIGIOUS STUDIES PROGRAM Sydney Australia: talk before katak dance nare march In our chakras, there are three gunas. Now you start from the fourth – number four. Four divided by three is eternity, so Ganesha can take an incarnation. Then six – six has divided by three, so Brahmadeva does not take an incarnation. Then comes ten. Ten divided by three is again eternity. So the Vishnu can take incarnations. Also all the gurus can take incarnations. Then comes twelve, at the heart. Twelve is divided by three, so Shiva does not take His form, only the Goddess does because it is divided completely. Then comes sixteen. Sixteen divided by three – again eternity. That is why then Vishnu takes the form of Krishna and He incarnates. Two divided by four is the same. So all these incarnations come because the three gunas, when they are divided by the number of petals they have, the number of powers they have. Some can produce eternities so they can incarnate and some cannot. That is why they could not incarnate. MARCH 16: SYDNEY PUBLIC PROGRAM 17 Sydney public program march Australia is very far off, but this is the land which is the land of purity. This is the land in the universe that is the first centre that you see there. And Uluru, that have – Uluru you means the Chaitanya. It is the symbol of that purity. So you stand for the innocence of the world. You are such a great nation here that stands for the innocence.... The whole world can be helped with your own purity and beautiful lives.

 This was Shri Mataji's first visit to Cairns, a city A live interview with New Zealand's most in the far north of Australia, above the tropic of renowned, but very cynical radio broadcaster was Capricorn. It's a very tropical, beautiful place, arranged. He started asking some very penetrating much visited by tourists. During Her visit, Shri Mataji went to the Great Barrier Reef, a two questions. The interviewer had diabetes and Shri thousand mile coral reef, forty miles off the Mataji explained to the listeners the causes of diabetes and the ability to overcome it through Quennsland coast, one of Her great natural Self Realization. As the interview progressed, he creations of the world. Over the last ten years, an alarming problem has developed, which has got more and more positive. Then he asked, “Are had the whole country concerned. There is a you a messiah, a prophet?" Shri Mataji did not reply, but he started feeling the cool breeze in his particular creature called the Crown of Thorn starfish, which consumes small coral animals, hand. He forgot he was on live radio. “When I bring my hands together I feel like I am holding thus killing the reef. Normally there are other a cool ball of wind – me, the greatest skeptic!" As predators which help keep the starfish under control. However, in the last few years, the starfish this was being broadcast, all the office workers have been in plague proportions, destroying vast could not believe what he was saying, as it was so out of character. They started coming from their areas of the reef. Due to the delicate nature of desks and looking through the studio window in the ecosystem, there is no chemical solution the disbelief. The interviewer then said that he could authorities can use to control the starfish and it not feel it on his head. Shri Mataji worked on would be difficult to physically remove them. So him. He asked, "What about everyone else?" She we have been watching as the reef has been slowly degraded. Due to its vast size, it would be a long time before the whole reef would be destroyed, replied, "They can get it too. Just tell them to put their hands out to the radio." It was an incredible however the damage already done is disturbing. scene as the interviewer and all the office workers Shri Mataji met with the mayor of Cairns, who peering into the studio had one hand directed to informed Her of this situation. Shri Mataji told Shri Mataji and one hand above their head feeling the cool breeze. Later, Shri Mataji said that, CC him, “Once your powers are awakened, you can although the interviewer had a bad reputation, do something about it," but he was a bit cynical. underneath he was quite humble and really ready While Shri Mataji was in Cairns, She waded into for it. That is why he felt it so strongly. the water for a time and said, "Let's see what can CC be worked out."

 needed a mother те Jou MARCH 18: SYDNEY – HOLI CELEBRATIONS MARCH 19: CANBERRA PUBLIC PROGRAM 20 Ah Sydney: evening before Birthday Puja march My tour of Australia has come to an end. Today is a day I can say it is all well done. We very have had a very good response. I didn't expect that much everywhere. It was tremendous and very great things have happened, some miracles also, during this visit. And one has to know that Sahaja Yogis have to be with great potential manifesting. If they are, then it triggers very well. Otherwise I cannot work it out. For that, we have to understand that in Sahaja Yoga there is no sacrifice of any kind. You do not have to sacrifice anything. It is all the time blessings throughout. are Sydney: Birthday Puja march What enthusiasm all over the world! The whole of Sydney, I think, has been lynched of all the flowers. And such nice things to say – the cards and the letters and the beautiful poems. The children are singing beautifully. Words fail to express the feelings of such jubilation and such sincere feeling of happiness. You needed a Mother to look after you, to care for you and to be able to transform you with a lot of wisdom. So every birthday I find that Sahaja Yogis are also expanding their hearts and realizing that they are no more drops, but they are part and parcel of the ocean and that the ocean itself is going to strengthen them and look after them. It is the ocean that is going to nourish them. And the same ocean is going to guide them. So the connection between a drop and an ocean has to be fully established. So the limitations of a drop have to be absolutely dissolved into the greatness of the ocean... The words fail. Because Australia is such a far-off country, to come here with so many people sitting and singing Agata Swagata, it is unbelievable – unbelievable because I have not given you any money, you have not given Me any money, you are not bound to say anything like that – but not only that you are doing it, but you are enjoying heart is it. It is something great. You are enjoying it and that is what it is, that when your large, then whatever you do for others, you enjoy. You enjoy doing good things. You enjoy saying nice things. So we should have the choicest flowers of beautiful sayings. We should have the choicest emotions, which we should be able to express to each other. Now start on that from today ... that from 1990 we are all the time going to speak something beautiful to each other all the time. And just keep your ears open, keep your eyes open and wherever you get a chance, whenever you hear something like that, keep it in your mind and use it back. Today I am so enamoured and it is too much for Me, really, to believe even that there are so many Sahaja Yogis in Australia, which is so far away. Now it is your responsibility to be sincere about Sahaja Yoga.... You will just think that "We love Mother and we have to be together and we have to love each other and all the time we have to say nice things to each other so that the love increases."

 Shri Mataji started cooking for us at 6 am. In all, She spent Shri Mataji spoke for some time about collective living, loving each about six hours cooking. It other and working it out together. Her finger works with the rest of was such a great experience to oHer body. It does not all of a sudden start doing its own thing. She witness our Mother cooking said that Sahaja Yogis should not form groups supporting one thing or four very large pots of chicken another. Know that this activity is against the collective and anything biryani – enough to feed hundreds of people. We all against the collective is a sin in the eyes of God and will be punished, so be careful. She said, "I am your Mother and I have to tell the you helped tend the four large fires and I am truth. You can accept Me or not, but I am what I am in the backyard and all the unchanging." She then said: "When you get to heaven, God is going other jobs required to cook you do for Sahaja Yoga?' and what are you to ask you, What did such a meal. going to say?" The power of Her words left us all speechless. The venue for the puja was a place known as Curzon Hall, an old federation style manor house of sandstone construction set among English gardens. This place was chosen because it had a ballroom large enough to fit everybody comfortably and the house itself had a grand style of architecture befitting the celebration of our Holy Mother's birthday. The stage was constructed with a backdrop consisting of a large lotus. The lotus was made of wood, draped with dyed silk and chiffon. At the centre of the lotus was a beautiful arrangement of flowers, giving life and colour to the setting. Around the stage were gathered As Shri Mataji's tour has progressed, most of us have felt a vast increase in the vibrations. The blessings of having Shri Mataji in the country are tremendous. all the flowers sent from all corners of the Sahaja Yoga world – three hundred roses from Her physical presence creates such a subtle feeling of joy which I am sure affects the general public. Austria, bouquets from England, the USA and from all over Europe. Our Holy Mother was surrounded by a bed of flowers. Shri Mataji arrived as the assembled yogis sang Swagata Agata and twenty-one conches sounded in welcome. As She took Her seat, Shri Mataji smiled and said that, as She was entering the hall, She felt that She was entering the ocean of collective joy. She said that She was immersed in joy. Such beautiful things were said that it was overwhelming.

But that should not be a complete satisfaction. Individually also we have to rise. And every one of you has to rise. Vertical ascent has to be achieved by all of you. Some might have lost a little bit. Some might have been a little bit away from themselves. The attention might have frit- tered away quite a lot, but we have to know why we are here and then it is very easy. We are here to be part and parcel of a very great revolution... So many events are going to happen and we are on the stage and we have to cooperate and coordinate and understand... I have given you all My powers. They are at your disposal. But there is one thing: you have to be detached like Me. You have to have concern for each other, complete detachment.... Res- urrect from the sense of time, sense of aggressiveness, sense of worldly things – mundane, useless rubbish they are – and fly out into the open sky. 22 april Eastbourne UK: Easter Puja Be aware that the twenty-first year is going to be a very big jump. I am warning you again and again, and again and again. And you have to work very hard to develop yourself ver- tically, in balance with your horizontal growth. It is not My lecture for entertainment or anything, but it should go to your heart, to your brain, to your being, as this is very impor- tant and you are not going to waste it. All the time you have to think that you are a Sahaja Yogi and you have to know what you have to do in Sahaja Yoga and how to achieve it. You should not be satisfied unless and until you have achieved that excellence... If you try just to exploit Sahaja Yoga, you will be exploited, too. But it is for the exploitation of joy. But that is only possible if you grow, you touch your depth. If you are not deep enough, you will hang in the air, as I said, and that has to be worked out. That has to be found out, how best you can do it, how much you can reach people, how many people you can give Realization, how many people you are going to help improve their health, their mental conditions and then how much you are going to talk about Sahaja Yoga. So that is going to work out what I call the collective ascent of human beings.

 The puja in Calcutta was the first puja to the Adi Shakti. All the shaktis arise from the Adi Shakti and absorbed back into Her. Only get the Adi Shakti can do this work because She has supremacy over all the chakras. She knows the subtlest of subtle. The Adi Shakti is of the CC nature of Mahamaya, "otherwise you o cannot approach Me." Shri Mataji said we should understand that we are "tied by a subtle and strong thread" and there is nothing greater than love for one another. The feeling of "mine" takes away from CC the spirit. that is a thing where they worship Gauri. That is Only one gentleman from Delhi went down to Jaipur to organize. And the Jaipur people said, the biggest festival where the queen, maharani has to worship the Gangauri. It is a statue which goes round the whole of Jaipur state and everybody "It's very difficult, you see, here." He said, “No, I'll have the program in Govinjis Mandir, where celebrates it. It is regarded as the biggest festival. nobody can have a program. I'll go and see the maharani." So the maharani would not meet him. So in the morning she came and touched My feet and she said, “Mother, can I worship You?" I said, He was insisting. He was sitting there, waiting "Why?" “Because You are my Gangaur, really. for her. Ultimately he got a chance. He went and talked to her. He showed her My photograph. That is just a statue." She made me stand the Immediately she took to Me. She asked about same way. She did everything. She made Me eat Sahaja Yoga, "What is Sahaja Yoga?" Then she betel. I don't eat all that, but she said, "You have said, "Give me Realization." She CC Realization. to. You are Gangaur, so You have to eat it." And got The maharaja got Realization. They said, "Yes, she worshipped Me and her whole rituals she did for about forty-five minutes and then she said, כ you can have the program here." She said, “Ill and worship that statue."

 mahayogis пош MAY 1: Mosco MEDICAL CONFERENCE MAY 5: FIUGGI ITALY – SAHAJA YOGA AND MEDICINE Fiuggi Italy: Sahasrara Puja may years, I have been waiting, for this day. We have now the twenty-first Sahasrara, All these so it is a very important turning point.... A new change has to come. And you can see the SO announcement, a new understanding, an awareness of a very new dimension. We have been so far dealing with collective consciousness. We are collectively conscious. We have the idea that we are collectively conscious. Also we know we are part and parcel of the whole and that we all are Sahaja Yogis. We know about our chakras and our nadis very clearly. But perhaps we do not know about our powers. How many powers have developed in those twenty-one years within yourself? [A roar of thunder is heard.] So far we had kept Sahaja Yoga at a low ebb because I wanted you, first of all, to develop into really very beau- tiful Sahaja Yogis, so that from your life, from your behaviour, from your lifestyle, from your understanding, from your thoughts, people will realize that these people are very unique and a very different type of people. Now that assumption has to be there. You have to understand that all these powers are bubbling in you and just out of formality or maybe out of shyness or maybe a little cowardice, you are hiding them.... This is the new era we are starting from today. And this is the day I was waiting for all of you to realize that you are not Sahaja Yogis for only your selfish ends, nor for your families, nor for your commu- who is nities, nor for your country, but for the whole world. Expand yourself.... Any person a king and does not belong to his kingdom is a failure, is useless. If he thinks about himself, about his own comfort, about his own fame, about his own achievements, then he is a fail- ure. He has to think about the country on which he is ruling. In the same way, you have to also turn your mind away from all these petty things that you have been dealing with.... So let us see what you have decided for yourself and what you have decided for Sahaja Yoga. If ve decided to opt for Sahaja Yoga, then just know that this is the main thing which have you you have to do. The whole attention should be on that.... Today we have here people from all over the world. And you go and tell this message to all the rest of the people whom I have not met, that "Mother has already announced – through the Vishnumaya also – that you all have become now mahayogis." And try to express that. Manifest that with full con- fidence in yourself. And with this power of love, I am sure you will all win over.

 In Russia people were just waiting for a Mother to come, that's all. They are Mother worshippers to begin with and they were wanting somebody just to love them, every one of them, to tell them about love because they felt they were never loved by their mother.... The pattern of the government there and the pattern of the people are two different types. The government people are very – you can call them very dominating, extremely strict and exploiting type. But the people are the exploited ones. SHRI MATAJI, MAY 28TH Leningrad to SAN DIEGO Moscow Eastbourne Perugia from CALCUTTA Rome Everywhere you go, they know Me and they know about Sahaja Yoga.

 all there, so beautiful 28 San Diego: national puja – Divine Discretion may It is another great pleasure to come to America to meet all you people here. This one is a very important country in the field of spirituality. Not because it is a large country or because it is very prosperous, but because it is the Vishuddhi in the plan of the Virata. The Vishuddhi is such an important chakra. It has a very great manifestation also. For example, it has another subsidiary chakra, which we call as the Hamsa chakra. And the star which is increasing this centre – we say the star that resides on which this centre is working – is Saturn. And as you know with Saturn, there is another small little Saturn moving. In the same way, with this Vishuddhi chakra, there is another one which is a very important chakra, which we call as the Hamsa chakra.. So we are really on a warpath in America, I you – for Sahaja Yogis, really on a warpath. Unless and until must tell up Sahaja you take Yoga as your only concern, it is not going to work out.... The first thing that the Sahaja Yogis must have is collectivity in America because America stands for the Vishuddhi chakra, which is manifesting collectivity within us. And if people cannot be collective, then how can you have Sahaja Yoga manifesting here? Impossible – because that is the greatest qual- ity you have. That is the basic power you have in this country. It is the collectivity within A Sahaja Yogi is the one who is completely connected with this Paramachaitanya... you.... Understand that to be in Sahaja Yoga is only possible if we are having that depth because a new jump is needed in Sahaja Yoga, which will work out, which is working out and many will be thrown out. You have to jump. And for that jumping, you really need people who are honest and deep and serious. Do not get lost into frivolous things and worldly things. Just seek your depth. It is all there, so beautiful.

This time, even New York – usually bold and defiantly diffident – was prepared to participate, glorify and behold the Mother.

 Shri Mataji arrived in San Diego on Saturday May 26th in the evening. Yogis from all over the Puja was offered to Shri Mataji, who sat in great country had gathered to greet Mother's plane and there was a feeling of anticipation and hope that beauty and splendour. The talk addressed the Vishuddhi chakra, but there was a tremendous many seekers might get their Realization and take feeling of heart, of fear being removed and confidence restored. We worshipped Shri Mataji to Sahaja Yoga. The children, who seemed to have sprung up overnight, ran to Mother with flowers in their hands and She exclaimed, "I must take as the Devi. Much to our amazement, it was announced that Shri Mataji had brought gifts flowers from the children first." for all the yogis. Mother showed concern for our Vishuddhis by giving the men watches and ties and the ladies perfume, scarves, earrings and Shri Mataji explained that we are ardent seekers necklaces. There was such warmth and love in this and that, through our frantic seeking for truth, exchange, a feeling that “Yes, there is a great deal into trouble, gone down us have many of gotten to be accomplished here, but we have the power the wrong path. She said that Americans are the within us to do it. Our Mother has told us so and greatest seekers, but we do not have the wisdom She has given us such love." There was a clear and the discrimination that the Russians have. understanding that we must rise higher. She posed the question, "If the Russians are so sensitive, why not the Americans?" She also spoke about racism and the ignorance that causes No one left the hall without feeling that a racism. We are all universal beings, just made a profound thing had occurred.

 (16 Barcelona: Shri Mahavira Puja june Today we are going to do puja of Mahavira and we never had this puja before. The reason for this was that Mahavira's life was an ascetic's life, just like Buddha.... Unless and until you touch your depth, you will become like any other religion because you won't be actu- ally Sahaja Yogis, just nominal. So we have to work in such a manner that we understand ourselves and we understand our attention and we try to ascend. I do not have to tel you. You yourself have to work it out in such a manner that you touch your depth and you become an ascetic within yourself. Then only you will be really doing the divine work properly with proper understanding. Sahaja Yoga is the integration of all these great proph- ets and these incarnations. So I have to tell you that, whatever were your conditionings and all that, to get rid of them. You must get out of this ocean of illusion. So this is the only thing I can just now say about Mahavira... I hope My lecture goes into your head and settles into your heart and you understand what you have to do about yourself, about your ascent. You have to be genuine people. Then only it is going to show results in the whole world. I hope you will pass this tape to all the people, so they should know why I did not have Mahavira's puja all these years.

And all your powers to be awakened within yourself, Divine. Unless and until you have that readiness, that "I don't want anything.

It is an ancient country the Greeks have really fallen the way into Sahaja Yoga is beyond. SHRI MATAJI, MARCH 12TH Leningrad (St. Petersberg) Moscow London Kiev Vienna from NEW YORK Milan Barcelona Madrid Athens After Austria, Shri Mataji went to Greece, where She blessed this country with two public programs, which were attended by approximately thirteen hundred seekers. A puja to Mahalakshmi was performed in a huge house on the island of o Hydra surrounded by the Aegean Sea. The whole time Mother was in Greece, She worked intensely on the Nabhi and gave a lot of speeches on Lakshmi Tattwa. She went shopping almost every day and gave Realization to shop owners in the well-known shopping region of Plaka in Athens. She bought lots of presents, showing us always how to save money, although buying high quality. Looking at everything which She had bought, we experienced the joy that matter can emit if vibrations are put inside. 21

This is not When you worship your guru, you are also worshipping the guru within you. any other guru-disciple system because, in you, the guru, the master has been awakened. in And so, when you are worshipping your guru, then this master within you is also wor- shipped. You respect it, you glorify it, you awaken it and you manifest it. This we have to realize.... All of us are now sitting like in a big vimana, like an airplane, and we all have to land into the beautiful area. But first of all, we have to develop that humility in your heart. Complete humility and surrender, that is very important. Unless and until you have that humility and surrender in your heart, the guru principle cannot be awakened. First, you have to be the disciple and then the guru. So you have to develop that humility. And that humility comes very easily if you love Me, respect Me. It is not only love, but respect. That respect has to be there and then people will respect you.

After all, Christ had promised a Comforter, a Counselor and a Redeemer.

 The divine discretion that manifests through your Hamsa chakra first started in Germany. And now you see how East Germany is entering into the German territory, West Germany, and how they are welcoming them, looking after them.... In those countries where there has been a tremendous war problem and they had czars and they had to go through hell, even Germans had to suffer a lot because of Hitler's misguidance. They have known hard- ships. They have known sacrifices. They have known all kinds of ordeals they had to go through.... Hardships have been in all these countries which we call as the Eastern Bloc. And Sahaja Yoga is spreading like wildfire in all these Eastern Bloc countries, where they have been com- pletely under the rule of Russians, we can say, or under the rule of terror. And the same terror has acted in Russia, throughout. In that terror, in that fear, it is surprising how this wisdom has grown in all these people much more than in countries where we have the greatest affluence, the greatest comfort of life. The hardship has taught them. The fear has taught them to be wise. And the best is part the discretion. SHRI MATAJI, MAY 28TH At the airport, Shri Mataji expressed Her concern that the hall we had Berlin Warsaw rented, with its capacity of 2800, London might not be large enough. When we arrived at the hall, half the people in Dresden Prague the tram got off with us and stood to LOS ANGELES Vienna outside. It was impossible to be in • Budapest o Sofia and not know about the program. People had even come from Sofia Plovdiv and Varna, hundreds of miles Avignon away. Well before the program started, the hall was full, with people crammed into the aisles and surrounding the stage. The excitement and pressure of the crowd entering the hall was so great that a large glass panel outside was broken. Fortunately a stadium had been booked for the next evening. 23

 my promise to you Los Angeles: Raksha Bandhan Puja august You have got, of course, Realization. You have got great qualities. You are not even aware as to what you have got so easily. You have got the knowledge also so easily and did not have to go to college or anything and you are capable of so many things. But remember that the power that is within you is cleverer than you and anything you try to do which is not correct, which is not righteous, which is not holy, it will try to correct you. So try to be a deeper person. Try to understand what is behind this person, what is the spiritual quality of this person and then only you will know that pure relationships are so fragrant and so beautiful. I really enjoy you people because you have such pure relationships among yourselves and such understanding. AUGUST 10: VANCOUVER PUBLIC PROGRAM 11 Vancouver: Shri Saraswati Puja august When they asked Me what puja we should have in Vancouver, I had heard about this ashram, that it is placed in very beautiful surroundings of nature and, as nature is being created by the power of Saraswati, I thought best would be to have the puja of Saraswati here. Another thing is that when people live in nature, they become extremely creative. Their delicate feelings are preserved and they are never in a rush or they are not what we can call too much modernized because nature soothes them down. So also the creativity of Saraswati adds to the artist and I knew that there must have been many artists in this country created since long. Canada as such, I feel is the Hamsa Chakra of the Vishuddhi. AUGUST 13: TORONTO CANADA AUGUST 17: IPSWICH UNITED KINGDOM – TALK TO SAHAJA YOGIS 19 eugus Ipswich UK: Shri Krishna Puja One thing you must ask in your prayer in the evening when you are sleeping, "What have I done for Sahaja Yoga?" One sentence – all of you just ask this question: "What have I CC done for Sahaja Yoga?" Persons like Me or Shri Krishna or anyone, we do not even feel we are doing anything. So what can we ask? If I want to ask Myself, I will fall into an ocean I think. I don't know. I will be lost. If I want to analyze Myself, I get lost. If I want to think about Myself, I get lost. It is beyond Me. Then let it be. It does not matter. I do not want to know Myself. But you better know yourself. You can't be Me. So as far as I am concerned, I only think that, as long as I live – I don't know, I may live forever, I am living forever maybe, you might say that – but whatever it is, as long as I am on this Earth, I will see that Sahaja Yoga is fully established. This is My promise to you. AUGUST 23: LONDON – TALK To INDIANS

 Shri Mataji said we should offer this puja as a Shri Ganesha Puja because o the essence of the raksha bandhan, the brother-sister relationship, is innocence and purity, which are the aspects of Shri Ganesha. As we said Shri Ganesha's names, Shri Mataji took the mantra book and started reading the names and explaining them to us. After the puja, Shri Mataji said that during the puja, in meditation, She saw Shri Ganesha and that the Muladharas of all the yogis were shining. Just before sunset a big thunder- storm developed right over us. The cloudy sky was bright orange, reddish and violet. It became dark quickly and soon the first lightning and thunder came down from the sky. It was raining heavily. Mother asked everyone to watch Late at night the puja commenced. The stage was redone the thunderstorm because She said according to Shri Mataji's directions. To one side, Shri Krishna stood in the chariot explaining the truth to Arjuna. On the that She was orchestrating it. So we all stood in front of the windows other side, Shri Krishna was depicted lifting Mount Govardhan beholding big lightning bolts that with one finger. The puja was very powerful, the rain cascading, shot down right in front of us, blowing around the tent. Shri Mataji was offered a pair of dandia right into the ocean. Every two to sticks, which She took up and played victoriously. Dandia sticks, three seconds the lightning struck hand-painted in America, were distributed to all. The sticks were in different parts of the sky and it gleefully taken up by the crowd. Many stood up and danced to went on for hours. Mother described keep time to the music. A wonderful array of musical instruments it as a real fireworks. The next day was presented to Shri Mataji. She explained that the instruments, local newspapers reported that the which were slowly going out of circulation, would be revived now. lightning had struck sixteen hundred times. Later in the evening, the She especially loved a rare antique organ and a tiny guitar-like instrument. They were all played for Her or by Her. The puja lights in the ashram went out. There ended at nearly 3 am. We felt Shri Krishna had been roused from was no electricity in the area due to His great slumber and we were grateful to Shri Mataji for being the lightning storm. A lantern and able to reach Him through the Heart of the Universe. two party candles were brought in and the bhajans continued. 25

 (26 august Today we are celebrating the birthday of Shri Ganesha. You all know the story of His birth and I need not repeat it. But as He was created by the Mother only, by Adi Shakti, in the same way you are all created after Him. So you are on the path of Shri Ganesha already. Your eyes sparkle the same way His eyes sparkle. You all have the beautiful glow on your face as He had. Whether you are small, big or old makes no difference. All the beauty comes to us through the glow of Shri Ganesha. If He is satisfied, then we do not have to other Deities because the of all the Deities is Shri Ganesha. He worry about any power is like a vice-chancellor sitting on every chakra. Unless and until He signs, the Kundalini cannot cross through because Kundalini is the Gauri and is the Virgin Mother of Shri Ganesh.... So let us try to be innocent within ourself. Be proud that we are innocent. We need not be smart people. Smartness is your mental attitude and innocence is your innate quality, which is connected with this all-pervading power. 31 Shri Hanuman Duia Schwetzingen Cermany: We have come here to do Hanumana's Puja. Shri Hanumana is a great character in our being and He runs all the way from the Swadisthana to your brain. And He supplies all the necessary guidance we need in our futuristic planning or in our mental activities. He gives us guidance and protection... I wish sometimes you could get His photograph also, as you have got the photographs of Shri Ganesha. Then you will really fall in love with Him. He is such a sweet thing. And although He is so huge and so big and though He has nails, but when He caresses My Feet, He pulls back His nails. He is so gentle, extremely gentle, and very beautifully He caresses My Feet. And I have seen Him, the way He handles every- thing. It is extremely gentle ways. So that is what I feel, that now Germans are becoming very gentle in handling things, in handling people. This change is coming and I think it is the blessing of Hanumana on them.

 afestival of ascent at NoyEMBER 22: PUNE INDIA DOCTORS CONFERENCE Pune India: puja december This tour is a festival for us. Of course, I say it is a pilgrimage, but there are no signs of pilgrimage because, if you see the pilgrims, horrible they look, while you are looking like roses, all of you. So it is a festival for us and you have to feel that festivity within your heart, that joy within your heart and small, small things you should not worry because these things cannot be provided in all the places. Gradually we will be building ashrams in all the places wherever you have been visiting, but you know how difficult it is in those OW days where India is passing through such a bad phase for so many years, where everything is delayed. So the attitude should be that "We have come here for our ascent." We have to work out everything with that attitude, that we have come here for our ascent, and every moment of our ascent is a festive occasion. Everything is a festival. If you understand that, I am sure you will see the beauty in everything, you will enjoy everything, whatever may be the rustic style. Maybe you may not like the colour of these lights because you may not enjoy it so much. You might get much better things in your own country. But whatever it is, it is not your conditioning that should stop you from enjoying. So please remember that you are now the member of the universal society and we cannot have our conditionings to mar our happiness and joy. I want you to enjoy this trip fully, absolutely, in a way that you have never enjoyed anything before.

We have so many Sahaja Yogis all over the world. So first of all, we are collectively very strong. And secondly, the Brahmachaitanya itself has become active. It is a very great thing. We must realize it within ourselves, that no amount of cruelty, planning against us, any kind of violence of other people can harm us.... You have to know that your Mother is with you and you should have no fear at all. To boast of your fear is nonsensical. Once you realize how powerful you are and how much you are connected to that power which is so powerful and all-pervading, which does all the living work, you will never get any one of these funny ideas which are to be left behind. You have to cross the threshold of these conditionings that you have had. Just open your heart and see for yourself where are you sitting, where have you reached, under what blessings you are here.

 In Alibag we had bhajans at night with the local villagers, singing together with western Sahaja Yogis. Mother came unexpectedly, since the puja had been cancelled. She was glowing with motherly love and said how much She enjoyed seeing and hearing us all singing together, dropping our artificiality and superficiality and just praising the Mother with one heart. It is in this spirit that one day the whole world will be united. After Shri Mataji left the stage and went up to Her room, the Sahaja Yogis gathered below Her balcony and continued singing and dancing. Shri Mataji gave very long talks, but the Realization was extremely quick. She just asked them to raise their hands and ask, "Is this Brahmachaitanya? Is this the cool breeze of God?" They all felt it and raised their hands. The time in Pune made us feel we had left the West far behind. At dusk there was a truly beautiful procession with Shri Mataji, under a sky suffused with pink and blue light. There were lots On the glittering stage, decorated with of people in the procession, all gaily dancing through the streets. The local boys leapt and jumped around with an energy and the most beautiful silk saris, Shri Mataji appeared to be sitting in a celestial rhythm that was incredible to see. Other villagers, the local throne adorned with flowers and lights. Sahaja Yogis, and all the westerners were copying the dance The gold thread of the saris glittered steps and movements of their Indian brothers and sisters. Shri behind Her like stars in the firmament. Mataji smiled down at all of us from a cart adorned with young At the close of the puja, crowned with banana trees.

 DECEMBER 14: PRATISHTHAN PUNE – TALK TO SAHAJA YOGIS DECEMBER 15: WAI PUBLIC PROGRAM DECEMBER 16: SATARA PUBLIC PROGRAM 17 Brahmapuri: Shri Chakra and Shri Lalita Puja december The materialistic life, unless and until there is the foundation of the spiritual life, takes you to a very partial development. But to get a full development, you must have your founda- tion on spirituality. That is why spirituality, being the foundation, has to be deep, has to be fully equipped, has to be absolutely perfect. Then the whole building can be built ... and will be surprised how you will become really solid people.. I think I should sit then you down and write all about it and it will be a nice, handy thing for you to read. But you must know that beyond thought, when you go, these chakras become extremely efficient because the thought puts a pressure on them and, because of the pressure, the movement of these chakras is very slow and ineffective. But once you can get out of your thoughts and go into thoughtless awareness, then these chakras start working it out and you start moving much deeper into your own being. DECEMBER 21: KOLHAPUR – MAHALAKSHMI PUJA DECEMBER 24: GANAPATIPULE – TALK ABOUT SHRI JESUS december Ganapatipule: Christmas Puja Without Him you cannot go to the Sahasrara. In the whole play He is like the sutradhara. He is the one who is the conductor, the one who moves the strings in a puppet show. And so it is very important to pray to Shri Ganesha every time we have puja. We have to pray to Him and that is how we are praying to Lord Jesus Christ every time. Without His auspi- ciousness, without His help, we cannot do Sahaja Yoga. He is the manager. See I am sitting here and He is the manager. Supposing there is no management, how will I speak here? Nothing can happen. But He is so efficient and you never see Him working out everything. DECEMBER 26: GANAPATIPULE – ENTERTAINMENT AND TALK TO SAHAJA YOGIS 27 Ganapatipule: talk to Sahaja Yogis december After Realization you will know which is real, which is unreal. Once you know that, then it is different. But when you do not know, you will fall into anything, like any stone you will worship.... But today it is not so. Today you all have become the saints, you have become walis, have become realized souls. Now you know what is real, what is not real. So you to understand these things deeply we have to know that we must have our vibrations to understand what is right and what is wrong.

 1990 As we arrived in Pratishthan, Shri Mataji and Sir C.P. Srivastava were waiting for us. We were greeted with a gracious gift of a shawl every Sahaja Yogi from Sir C.P. He welcomed for us to Pratishthan, saying that it is our home and we should feel at home there. We were told that we are their children and they are our parents and we were together with our real family there. That afternoon we went into an open courtyard for a delious, completely satisfying biryani lunch. As we ate, Shri Mataji and Sir C.P. sat with the children from the Dharamsala school, enjoying their company. THE DIVINE COOL BREEZE www.divinecoolbreeze.org There are sure to be errors and omissions in this compilation of events from 1990. It is not comprehensive, nor com- plete. The sources drawn upon are The Divine Cool Breeze magazines of 1990, the Sahaja Yoga Media Project website and the International Book Project's transcriptions of Shri Mataji's talks. Sometimes these sources do not agree in the sequencing and dating of events. In these cases, priority has been given to The Divine Cool Breeze reports, as they were written shortly after each event by people who were there. Additionally, some unverified events have not been included so that we do not repeat and perpetuate an error. In the end, we hope that the truth of Shri Mataji's travels does not lie so much in the details, but in the scope, range and love She gave every day of 1990 – and every day since.

 Thope this will happen this year ODe and people will try to make it a point that we have a large heart. A large heart does not mean stupidity. It doesn't mean that. A large heart means the heart in which you can put Me. It is quite a big person, Myself, so you have to have a very large heart that I can reside.... If that happens, then everything will work out very well.

 The audience was small. About fifty employees
gathered in the Dag Hammarskjold Auditorium
in the early evening. A Sahaja Meditation
Society had just two days before been chartered
and sanctioned by the United Nations and now
the members gathered to hear their keynote
speaker. This was a break from their desks,
meetings and global concerns. It was a chance
to hear the words of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi,
a chance to look within. The topic was spiritual
enlightenment, global peace and a better world.
It was June 6th in 1990. The venue was the
United Nations headquarters in New York City.

 1990
THE WORLD SEEMED FULL OF TURMOIL AND CHANGE.
The first anniversary of the demonstrations and massacre in Beijing's Tiananmen Square
was being observed that week. No one could anticipate what would be next.
Within twelve months that same Soviet Union would no longer exist. It would be
replaced by a new Russian federation. There had already been free elections in Romania
after the previous year's dismantling of the Berlin Wall. In less than four months, the two
Germanys would complete their reunification. And in less than two months, Iraq would
invade Kuwait. The United Nations building would soon become an even busier place.
Now was the time to pause and listen.
On that Wednesday evening, Shri Mataji spoke calmly to the small audience. This was
not the general assembly. These people were not decision-makers. They were clerks and
administrative assistants. But, as small as the gathering was, it represented the world
on another, perhaps more real level.
Her tone was intimate. She chose Her words to meet the needs of the audience. And, as
always, She spoke in terms that were both global and personal.
During Her talk, Shri Mataji spoke of truth and the need to actualize the collective
doctrine of the United Nations. She spoke of the Kundalini's role in bringing about that
actualization. At the end of the talk Shri Mataji granted Self Realization. She personally
greeted everyone and most signed up for follow-up classes. It seemed that the United
Nations was finally coming of age.
In the week previous to Her appearance at the UN, Shri Mataji had given similar talks
in both Miami and San Diego. Early in the year She had spoken in Australia, India, Italy,
New Zealand, Russian, Singapore and the United Kingdom. A medical conference in
Moscow, a press conference in Calcutta, to Perth, Melbourne, Cairns, Sydney, Bangalore,
 2011_Divine_Cool_Breeze_E_IV.pdf-page-4.txt 
 Hyderabad, Jaipur, Leningrad, Auckland and Calcutta – Her appearances for the
year
were already approaching one hundred and it was still only June.
To come, before the year was out: Athens, Bangkok, Barcelona, Berlin, Bucharest,
Budapest, Dresden, Frankfurt, Geneva, Hong Kong, Istanbul, Kiev, Kuala Lumpur,
Leningrad, London, Los Angeles, Madrid, Milan, Munich, Paris, Prague, Pune, Rome,
Sofia, Taipei, Turin, Toronto, Vancouver, Vienna, Warsaw and the villages and towns of
central India, all before the New Year's Day – more than two hundred stops in twenty-
six countries, all in one year.
Her travels in 1990 totalled in excess of 135,000 kilometres – more than three times the
distance around the world.
In addition to the scheduled talks, there were countless informal events. In homes and
airports, halls and schools. Each conversation, every speech was different. And yet each
was also the same, highlighted with concern and insight, with humour and love. Every
talk served the same purpose. It addressed the need for spiritual ascent.
While another person might say, "Be your better self," Shri Mataji reached for an even
higher plateau: “Be your true Self."
And this was not an unusual year, 1990. But it was pivotal. From the late 1970s, through
the 80s and 90s and into the new century, Her travels and outreach, Her efforts to create
a better world were to continue. Her travels were largely unchronicled by newspapers
and undocumented in the popular consciousness, but they were not unnoticed by those
seeking enlightenment in a meta-modern world.
In Her own words, when speaking of that year's tour of India, She called it both a
pilgrimage and a festival. And so it was for the entire year 1990 and for each of our
lives: always a festival of ascent.

Ganapatipule: puja

In India we believe that God Himself takes incarnations with His Vishnu Principle when-
ever there is the decline of righteousness and He tries to elevate. Every incarnation has
done a lot of work and has done also work within ourselves.... What importance you
give to everything that you want to do, it is very important. It is the complete attention,
dedication and the complete importance that you give to anything that you do. It is very
important. If you do not give it the highest priority, it does not work. If it is just by the
way, it does not work. So it is important to understand that if you have to gain anything in
this puja, you have to give it the highest priority. And then just before puja, if your mind is
telling you or doubting, just tell him to stop because that mind can act against you. So for
the puja, you should be all prepared in a way, in a receptive way and receive it.

We are at a point where we have to trigger a new jump. A new flight we have to take and
for this flight we have to see that we really become very light in our ideas, in our thoughts
and in our conditionings. We are so much full of conditionings. All kinds of conditionings
are on us. They are so deep that sometimes I fail to understand human beings. I just do not
understand how they get stuck to things which are of no value, which have no sense and
they get
lost. In this higher jump that we are going to take, many will be left behind as a
result, those who won't be able to come out of that....
Fully dedicate yourself to meditation and surrender yourself to collectivity and every day
you must think in the evening what have I done for Sahaja Yoga? What have I done for
myself? Please try to understand that there is a very big jump that we have to take. It is to
be triggered and for that I would like you to be ready to be absolutely prepared because in
this jump many might be lost and many might be just left behind because they could not
get over their conditionings. The conditionings are of various types, as you know very well
of ignorance, blind faith and all other things that we have gone through. Also we have
conditionings of our country, of our race, of our styles and so many other things by which
we judge others. But we have to judge ourselves, that are we in a Sahaj culture or not? If
we are not in the Sahaj culture, then it is going to be very difficult that you board the ship
which is going to take us all....
So far I am very happy that whatever I have been telling you and whatever I have been
guiding you, you have accepted it very well, calmly and sweetly and that you have tried to
imbibe it in your lifestyle. Actually, after some time, I do not think that I will have to tell
you. You will get your own light to see for yourself what is right and what is wrong. But
still, I would say for all the western people especially, that you must open your heart in
the puja, in the music, in anything. Just see that you open your heart. If you cannot open
your heart, this won't work because this works to the spirit, which resides in your heart.
So please try to open your heart for everything. All

Mataji surprised us by arriving mid-performance. She asked the European musicians, who had
performed so well all tour, to take the stage and sing songs to awaken the Kundalini. Sankranti
Puja was held the next morning inside a grassy courtyard and Shri Mataji, radiant, addressed
us from Her seat at the top of the temple steps. She urged us to open our hearts and repeatedly
urged us to be extremely dedicated and sincere about our spiritual growth. And, with the Shri
Ganesha Puja, the atmosphere built, first solemn and royal and then it welled over with joy. In

incarnations. Then comes twelve, at the heart. Twelve is divided by three, so Shiva does

Sydney: Birthday Puja
march
What enthusiasm all over the world! The whole of Sydney, I think, has been lynched of all
the flowers. And such nice things to say – the cards and the letters and the beautiful
poems.
The children are singing beautifully. Words fail to express the feelings of such jubilation
and such sincere feeling of happiness. You needed a Mother to look after you, to care for
you and to be able to transform you with a lot of wisdom. So every birthday I find that
Sahaja Yogis are also expanding their hearts and realizing that they are no more drops, but
they are part and parcel of the ocean and that the ocean itself is going to strengthen them
and look after them. It is the ocean that is going to nourish them. And the same ocean
is going to guide them. So the connection between a drop and an ocean has to be fully
established. So the limitations of a drop have to be absolutely dissolved into the greatness
of the ocean... The words fail. Because Australia is such a far-off country, to come here
with so many people sitting and singing Agata Swagata, it is unbelievable – unbelievable
because I have not given you any money, you have not given Me any money, you are not
bound to say anything like that – but not only that you are doing it, but you are enjoying

large, then whatever you do for others, you enjoy. You enjoy doing good things. You enjoy
saying nice things. So we should have the choicest flowers of beautiful sayings. We should
have the choicest emotions, which we should be able to express to each other. Now start on
that from today ... that from 1990 we are all the time going to speak something beautiful
to each other all the time. And just keep your ears open, keep your eyes open and wherever
you get a chance, whenever you hear something like that, keep it in your mind and use it
back. Today I am so enamoured and it is too much for Me, really, to believe even that there
are so many Sahaja Yogis in Australia, which is so far away. Now it is your responsibility to
be sincere about Sahaja Yoga.... You will just think that "We love Mother and we have to
be together and we have to love each other and all the time we have to say nice things to
each other so that the love increases."

should not be a complete satisfaction. Individually also we have to rise. And every one of
you has to rise. Vertical ascent has to be achieved by all of you. Some might have lost a little
bit. Some might have been a little bit away from themselves. The attention might have frit-

here to be part and parcel of a very great revolution... So many events are going to happen

Eastbourne UK: Easter Puja
Be aware that the twenty-first year is going to be a very big jump. I am warning you again
and again, and again and again. And you have to work very hard to develop yourself ver-
tically, in balance with your horizontal growth. It is not My lecture for entertainment or
anything, but it should go to your heart, to your brain, to your being, as this is very impor-
tant and you are not going to waste it. All the time you have to think that you are a Sahaja
Yogi and you have to know what you have to do in Sahaja Yoga and how to achieve it. You
should not be satisfied unless and until you have achieved that excellence... If you try just
to exploit Sahaja Yoga, you will be exploited, too. But it is for the exploitation of joy. But
that is only possible if you grow, you touch your depth. If you are not deep enough, you
will hang in the air, as I said, and that has to be worked out. That has to be found out,
how best you can do it, how much you can reach people, how many people you can give
Realization, how many people you are going to help improve their health, their mental
conditions and then how much you are going to talk about Sahaja Yoga. So that is going
to work out what I call the collective ascent of human beings.

been so far dealing with collective consciousness. We are collectively conscious. We have
the idea that we are collectively conscious. Also we know we are part and parcel of the
whole and that we all are Sahaja Yogis. We know about our chakras and our nadis very
clearly. But perhaps we do not know about our powers. How many powers have developed
in those twenty-one years within yourself? [A roar of thunder is heard.] So far we had kept
Sahaja Yoga at a low ebb because I wanted you, first of all, to develop into really very beau-
tiful Sahaja Yogis, so that from your life, from
your behaviour, from
your lifestyle, from
your understanding, from your thoughts, people will realize that these people are very
unique and a very different type of people. Now that assumption has to be there. You have
to understand that all these powers are bubbling in you and just out of formality or maybe
out of shyness or maybe a little cowardice, you are hiding them.... This is the new era we
are starting from today. And this is the day I was waiting for all of you to realize that

about his own comfort, about his own fame, about his own achievements, then he is a fail-

have to
also turn your mind away from all these petty things that you have been dealing with.... So
let us see what you have decided for yourself and what you have decided for Sahaja Yoga. If

you have to do. The whole attention should be on that.... Today we have here people from
all over the world. And you go and tell this message to all the rest of the people whom I
have not met, that "Mother has already announced – through the Vishnumaya also – that
you all have become now mahayogis." And try to express that. Manifest that with full con-
fidence in yourself. And with this power of love, I am sure you will all win over.

It is another great pleasure to come to America to meet all you people here. This one is
a very important country in the field of spirituality. Not because it is a large country or
because it is very prosperous, but because it is the Vishuddhi in the plan of the Virata. The
Vishuddhi is such an important chakra. It has a very great manifestation also. For example,
it has another subsidiary chakra, which we call as the Hamsa chakra. And the star which
is increasing this centre – we say the star that resides on which this centre is working – is
Saturn. And as you know with Saturn, there is another small little Saturn moving. In the

Understand that to be in Sahaja Yoga is only possible if we are having that depth because a

are honest and deep and serious. Do not get lost into frivolous things and worldly things.

Barcelona: Shri Mahavira Puja
june
Today we are going to do puja of Mahavira and we never had this puja before. The reason
for this was that Mahavira's life was an ascetic's life, just like Buddha.... Unless and until
you touch your depth, you will become like any other religion because you won't be actu-
ally Sahaja Yogis, just nominal. So we have to work in such a manner that we understand
ourselves and we understand our attention and we try to ascend. I do not have to tel
you.
You yourself have to work it out in such a manner that you touch your depth and you
become an ascetic within yourself. Then only you will be really doing the divine work
properly with proper understanding. Sahaja Yoga is the integration of all these great proph-
ets and these incarnations. So I have to tell you that, whatever were your conditionings
and all that, to get rid of them. You must get out of this ocean of illusion. So this is the
only thing I can just now say about Mahavira... I hope My lecture goes into your head and
settles into your heart and you understand what you have to do about yourself, about your
ascent. You have to be genuine people. Then only it is going to show results in the whole
world. I hope you will pass this tape to all the people, so they should know why I did not
have Mahavira's puja all these years.

Complete humility and surrender, that is very important. Unless and until you have that

 The divine discretion that manifests through your Hamsa
chakra first started in Germany. And now you see how
East Germany is entering into the German territory, West
Germany, and how they are welcoming them, looking
after them.... In those countries where there has been a
tremendous war problem and they had czars and they
had to go through hell, even Germans had to suffer a lot
because of Hitler's misguidance. They have known hard-
ships. They have known sacrifices. They have known all
kinds of ordeals they had to go through.... Hardships have
been in all these countries which we call as the Eastern
Bloc. And Sahaja Yoga is spreading like wildfire in all
these Eastern Bloc countries, where they have been com-
pletely under the rule of Russians, we can say, or under
the rule of terror. And the same terror has acted in Russia,
throughout. In that terror, in that fear, it is surprising how
this wisdom has grown in all these people much more
than in countries where we have the greatest affluence, the
greatest comfort of life. The hardship has taught them.
The fear has taught them to be wise. And the best

Los Angeles: Raksha Bandhan Puja
august
You have got, of course, Realization. You have got great qualities. You are not even aware
as to what you have got so easily. You have got the knowledge also so easily and did not
have to go to college or anything and you are capable of so many things. But remember
that the power that is within you is cleverer than you and anything you try to do which
is not correct, which is not righteous, which is not holy, it will try to correct you. So try
to be a deeper person. Try to understand what is behind this person, what is the spiritual
quality of this person and then only you will know that pure relationships are so fragrant
and so beautiful. I really enjoy you people because you have such pure relationships among
yourselves and such understanding.

Vancouver: Shri Saraswati Puja
august
When they asked Me what puja we should have in Vancouver, I had heard about this
ashram, that it is placed in very beautiful surroundings of nature and, as nature is being
created by the power of Saraswati, I thought best would be to have the puja of Saraswati
here. Another thing is that when people live in nature, they become extremely creative.
Their delicate feelings are preserved and they are never in a rush or they are not what we
can call too much modernized because nature soothes them down. So also the creativity
of Saraswati adds to the artist and I knew that there must have been many artists in this
country created since long. Canada as such, I feel is the Hamsa Chakra of the Vishuddhi.

Ipswich UK: Shri Krishna Puja
One thing you must ask in your prayer in the evening when you are sleeping, "What have
I done for Sahaja Yoga?" One sentence – all of you just ask this question: "What have I
CC
done for Sahaja Yoga?" Persons like Me or Shri Krishna or anyone, we do not even feel we
are doing anything. So what can we ask? If I want to ask Myself, I will fall into an ocean I
think. I don't know. I will be lost. If I want to analyze Myself, I get lost. If I want to think
about Myself, I get lost. It is beyond Me. Then let it be. It does not matter. I do not want to
know Myself. But you better know yourself. You can't be Me. So
as far as I am concerned,
I only think that, as long as I live – I don't know, I may live forever, I am living forever
maybe, you might say that – but whatever it is, as long as I am on this Earth, I will see that
Sahaja Yoga is fully established. This is My promise to you.

Today we are celebrating the birthday of Shri Ganesha. You all know the story of His birth
and I need not repeat it. But as He was created by the Mother only, by Adi Shakti, in the
same way you are all created after Him. So you are on the path of Shri Ganesha already.
Your eyes sparkle the same way His eyes sparkle. You all have the beautiful glow on your
face as He had. Whether you are small, big or old makes no difference. All the beauty
comes to us through the glow of Shri Ganesha. If He is satisfied, then we do not have to

is like a vice-chancellor sitting on every chakra. Unless and until He signs, the Kundalini
cannot cross through because Kundalini is the Gauri and is the Virgin Mother of Shri
Ganesh.... So let us try to be innocent within ourself. Be proud that we are innocent. We
need not be smart people. Smartness is your mental attitude and innocence is your innate
quality, which is connected with this all-pervading power.

Shri Hanuman Duia
Schwetzingen Cermany:
We have come here to do Hanumana's Puja. Shri Hanumana is a great character in our
being and He runs all the way from the Swadisthana to your brain. And He supplies all the
necessary guidance we need in our futuristic planning or in our mental activities. He gives
us guidance and protection... I wish sometimes you could get His photograph also, as you
have got the photographs of Shri Ganesha. Then you will really fall in love with Him. He
is such a sweet thing. And although He is so huge and so big and though He has nails, but
when He caresses My Feet, He pulls back His nails. He is so gentle, extremely gentle, and
very beautifully He caresses My Feet. And I have seen Him, the way He handles every-
thing. It is extremely gentle ways. So that is what I feel, that now Germans are becoming
very gentle in handling things, in handling people. This change is coming and I think it is
the blessing of Hanumana on them.

Yesterday, when the last song started, it did penetrate into many souls, to many hearts, that
unique joy which we call as nirananda. I did feel it yesterday. But keep it up. It is to be kept
very safely into your kumbhas. That is the Kundalini and She is the one who has come up.
So My idea was that today, it is not only the worship of the kumbha where the kundalini
resides, but the kumbha becomes like a flowerpot. It is like that. That has happened ..
the kumbha becoming flowers and flowers becoming light and the lights with fragrance.
I hope you will understand My vision and you will stand by Me and

Pune India: puja

This tour is a festival for us. Of course, I say it is a pilgrimage, but there are no signs of
pilgrimage because, if you see the pilgrims, horrible they look, while you are looking like
roses, all of
you. So it is a festival for us and you have to feel that festivity within your
heart, that joy within your heart and small, small things you should not worry because
these things cannot be provided in all the places. Gradually we will be building ashrams
in all the places wherever you have been visiting, but you know how difficult it is in those
OW
days where India is passing through such a bad phase for so many years, where everything
is delayed. So the attitude should be that "We have come here for our ascent." We have to
work out everything with that attitude, that we have come here for our ascent, and
every
moment of our ascent is a festive occasion. Everything is a festival. If you understand that,
I am sure you will see the beauty in everything, you will enjoy everything, whatever may
be the rustic style. Maybe you may not like the colour of these lights because you may not
enjoy it so much. You might get much better things in your own country. But whatever it
is, it is not your conditioning that should stop you from enjoying. So please remember that
you are now the member of the universal society and we cannot have our conditionings to
mar our happiness and joy. I want you to enjoy this trip fully, absolutely, in a way that
you
have never enjoyed anything before.

In these modern times, we are so many. We have so many Sahaja Yogis all over the world.
So first of all, we are collectively very strong. And secondly, the Brahmachaitanya itself has
become active. It is a very great thing. We must realize it within ourselves, that no amount of
cruelty, planning against us, any kind of violence of other people can harm us.... You have to
know that your Mother is with you and you should have no fear at all. To boast of your fear
is nonsensical. Once you realize how powerful you are and how much you are connected
to that power which is so powerful and all-pervading, which does all the living work, you
will never get any one of these funny ideas which are to be left behind. You have to cross
the threshold of these conditionings that you have had. Just open your heart and see for
yourself where are you sitting, where have you reached, under what blessings you are here.

 In Alibag we had bhajans at night with
the local villagers, singing together
with western Sahaja Yogis. Mother
came unexpectedly, since the puja had
been cancelled. She was glowing with
motherly love and said how much She
enjoyed seeing and hearing us all singing
together, dropping our artificiality
and superficiality and just praising the
Mother with one heart. It is in this spirit
that one day the whole world will be
united. After Shri Mataji left the stage
and went up to Her room, the Sahaja
Yogis gathered below Her balcony and
continued singing and dancing.
Shri Mataji gave very long talks, but the Realization
was extremely quick. She just asked them to raise
their hands and ask, "Is this Brahmachaitanya?
Is this the cool breeze of God?" They all felt it and
raised their hands. The time in Pune made us feel
we had left the West far behind.
At dusk there was a truly beautiful procession with Shri Mataji,

The materialistic life, unless and until there is the foundation of the spiritual life, takes you
to a very partial development. But to get a full development, you must have your founda-
tion on spirituality. That is why spirituality, being the foundation, has to be deep, has to be
fully equipped, has to be absolutely perfect. Then the whole building can be built ... and

know that beyond thought, when you go, these chakras become extremely efficient because
the thought puts a pressure on them and, because of the pressure, the movement of these
chakras is very slow and ineffective. But once you can get out of your thoughts and go into
thoughtless awareness, then these chakras start working it out and you start moving much
deeper into your own being.

Without Him you cannot go to the Sahasrara. In the whole play He is like the sutradhara.
He is the one who is the conductor, the one who moves the strings in a puppet show. And
so it is very important to pray to Shri Ganesha every time we have puja. We have to pray
to Him and that is how we are praying to Lord Jesus Christ every time. Without His auspi-
ciousness, without His help, we cannot do Sahaja Yoga. He is the manager. See I am sitting
here and He is the manager. Supposing there is no management, how will I speak here?
Nothing can happen. But He is so efficient and you never see Him working out everything.

walis,
have become realized souls. Now you know what is real, what is not real. So

THE DIVINE COOL BREEZE www.divinecoolbreeze.org
There are sure to be errors and omissions in this compilation of events from 1990. It is not comprehensive, nor com-
plete. The sources drawn upon are The Divine Cool Breeze magazines of 1990, the Sahaja Yoga Media Project website
and the International Book Project's transcriptions of Shri Mataji's talks. Sometimes these sources do not agree in the
sequencing and dating of events. In these cases, priority has been given to The Divine Cool Breeze reports, as they were
written shortly after each event by people who were there. Additionally, some unverified events have not been included
so that we do not repeat and perpetuate an error. In the end, we hope that the truth of Shri Mataji's travels does not
lie so much in the details, but in the scope, range and love She gave every day of 1990 – and every day since.

A large heart does not mean stupidity. It doesn't mean that.
A large heart means the heart in which you can put Me.
It is quite a big person, Myself,

If that happens, then everything will work out very well.
