Thoughtless awareness

Many people meditate but, their thought process is going on. They’re not thoughtlessly silent. Now this is the one point which is very important. If you have to grow, you should be absolutely in connection with Divine through thoughtless awareness. You don’t have to pray. You don’t have to call anyone – nothing. It just works because it is within you.





All these thoughts are bombarding you from both the sides in your mind. These thoughts that are coming to you, have no meaning with you. They do not substantiate you. Yourself, you are an ocean and you have to get into that state of thoughtless awareness.





It is always described in all the great books, but not so clearly as I am telling you. I don’t say that some of you do not get thoughtless awareness, so they’re good for nothing- no. But please try. You can all get into that state of thoughtless awareness. Even for a second, if you get it, it’s a very good idea. Then you go on increasing that second.





I think it’s a reflecting mind. When you look at something, you can become thoughtlessly aware and then your mind reflects to the depth of what you see. That’s how you all will become really very creative Sahaja Yogis.


What I find that this state of thoughtless awareness is not established by you. It is not good.





Today on this day of Diwali, I would say that you enlighten yourself with thoughtless awareness. It is not difficult. It’s within you because thoughts are coming from this side and that side and they are not the waves of your brain - no, just your own reactions.




But in case you meditate in the real sense of the word, then you’ll get into that thoughtless awareness, which is a very important point and all these nonsensical thoughts, which are of no use to you, will disappear. They won’t be there and then your growth is possible and you’ll grow very well.




Many people are here who will say, “Mother, we don’t get that state” - try. Try that. I don’t believe you cannot get it. All of you can get that thought that, “I can get it!” and you will get it. In that, you don’t have to discard anything, you don’t have to see anything, just go into meditation and you will be amazed how it will work.


Of course, you are very much there, most of you, but still, I would say, increase that thoughtless awareness, that area.




Today is very important because of this day of Diwali. Diwali is supposed to be enlightenment day, but enlightenment within is how much you are in thoughtless awareness and everything works out because you are the ocean of it.



You have it within yourself. Only you have to tap it. If you don’t tap it, then it doesn’t work out. You have to just tap it and you will be amazed that you are a source of such joy, source of such happiness. I should say a source of real enlightenment.



So today’s message is that, while meditating, go into thoughtless awareness. No thought is important because it’s your own creation. But if you have to become with the Divine creation, you have to get to that state of thoughtless awareness, minimum of minimum.



Once that comes to you gradually it will grow and you will be amazed how you’ll be able to grow into Sahaja Yoga in a very big way.

Thank you very much.
