Beautiful RAKHEES

Many many blessings to all.

I have received the beautiful RAKHEES lovingly sent by you .RAKHEE denotes a protective power. This protective bandhan is very powerful and at the same time delicate as it represents pure love between a brother and a sister.



Whenever a sister ties this RAKHEE on a brother’s hand, it establishes a relation of enduring protection by the brother for the sister. Unfortunately, the sensitivity of human beings to the feelings of love has become so weak that tying a RAKHEE has become a mechanical ritual. In absence of a deep living faith all human actions and rituals become dry and lifeless.


We are born in this life with a purposeful responsibility towards all Sahaj yogis and are all the time aware of their love and devotion. Myself being desireless, I depend entirely on their desires. It is customary for a brother to ask for something from the sister on this day. All sahajayogis should therefore collectively let me know whatever they desire from my side.



I am keeping very good health as this is the pure desire of all of you. I have to undergo a minor surgery for ear which is not a problem, and you need not worry about it nor feel unduly concerned.



RAKHEE bandhan is a very important day and one should desire on this occasion to become a 'whole', you should always have high aspirations and your attention should be to larger perspectives. Sahaj-yogis are not expected to waste their attention in petty small things. We have to work very hard, those of you who have achieved good progress should still work out much more. We should open more centers. We must help the sick to cure their ailments and above all strive to bring people on the path of TRUTH. Please circulate this letter to all the sahaj yogis.

Always remembering you all -NIRMALA

receiving RAKHEES from them.
(From Nirmala Yoga-7), 17 Aug 1978

Translation of Her Holiness Shri Mata Ji's Marathi letter 1979

My Dear Sahaja Yogis,

Received your loving and beautiful letters and messages of greetings. Here, I am busy in the work in London and could not write.



Once I told you that Sahaja Yoga is beginning from Navaratri this year. That is Satya -Yuga for which you were so far preparing, will now be seen. As a tree has to sprout first in the earth and then its sapling peeps out, in the same way, on the first day of Navaratri i.e. on 8th April the sapling of Satya -Yuga will be seen.



It is the day of great joy. Whole nature will now have new life. You must understand that the importance of this day will be known only if the whole mankind is enlightened with vibrations of love.



In this world Brahma Shakti was awakened from the very day of My birth. You have received it to some extent, and are using it in many ways.



I was telling you that light of the great power of love will spread all over the world. The first lamp will be lit on that day. But the night of Diwali is blind. It cannot seethe lamps. In this Kali-Yuga, this work will be done only if many lamps are lit.



Whatever is God's work, it will be over. Hence all should be alert and awake and also awaken others.


My life is dedicated to you. Every moment it is working. All I want is that pure gold should enlighten human history while getting heated in the hell of Kali -yuga.



My blessings are: may this lamp be kindled in every home, may its joy spread in the society, may the cheers of its victory resound all countries and may this power of Brahman fill every molecule of this Universe.

I have to be away from you for a very long time. But your brothers are living here and also in other countries. You will meet each other in course of time. But I often feel that one day of such great joy of love should dawn in our life. Whatever you desire you desire will happen. Therefore, your attention should be fully on Sahaja Yoga. I have offered My body, mind and wealth, everything.



You have to take care of only your Chitta because only that will be enlightened.



Always remembering you,
Your separated Mother,
Nirmala

Sahaja Yoga is the only way to save the world in Kaliyuga

To,
Sahaja Yogis,
Received your cable on the eve of Guru Purnima. The sentiments, which you have expressed in very beautiful words have gone to heart. On the occasion of Guru Purnima day celebrations in London, I have explained what is self realisation and whether you have got it or not. I will send the tape recording of this speech with some one instead of sending it by post.

I suggested, in my earlier letters, to think of "Atma tatwa". Because you are "Atma Swaroop", your mind, intellect and ego, should be enlightened by the "atma jyoti". The light of wisdom shines in the intellect only when Atma-jyoti illumines in its fullness. Then, mind emits fragrance of love and ego does great and noble works, the whole of your inner being is fully enlightened. You should be able to rely on the Atma tatwa, accommodate others in it, but first stabilize it.


Many of the Sahaja Yogis have cured a number of diseases. They have immense love for me and others. These people could do all this because they have become experts owning to their "Poorva-Sampada". However, there are many intellectuals among us who have not been able to go very far on the strength of their knowledge or wisdom. Sahaja Yoga is lacking in books. We will have to write books in each language. Also, Sahaja Yogis should go to different cities and give lectures. Many people send their poems to me. We should collect all these. Similarly my letters can also be printed. Such publicity is necessary. Let it be known all over the world that Sahaja Yoga is the only way to save the world in Kaliyuga. I am writing a book but it is not useful to all at the present. All should think on what I have suggested. every centre may also be accordingly advised.

Many blessings from Mother to all Sahaja Yogis.
Always remembering you
Your mother NIRMALA

( LETTER OF SHRI MATAJI - London 11th July 1980)

"What are you searching?

"What are you searching? Why are you aimlessly and listlessly running about? The joy that you have searched in material gains, the joy that you are looking for in power, the joy that disappeared in the words of books-the so-called knowledge-is all lost in yourself, and you are still searching and seeking! You can pay attention to everything outside, yourself! You are lost in your thoughts, like babes in the wood! But there is great hope that you can rise into the Heaven of "thoughtless" awareness, which we call Self-realization."

"I invite you to this feast of Divine Bliss, which is pouring around you, even in this Kaliyuga, in these God-forsaken modern times. I hope you will come and enjoy the spiritual experience of the Life Eternal."

Have you forgotten your Mother's love and therefore you are so disturbed? ...

letter from Shri Mataji on Diwali 1976 occasion....with love... 21 October 1976

"My dear Sahaja Yogis, my dear children,Let this Diwali enlighten you with light of love.You yourself are the lamps which burn high and don't get pressed by the cover. They become much more powerful than the cover. It is their own asset. When they are hit upon, they are disturbed and extinguished.


Why are our lamps disturbed ? You should think over it. Is there no transparent sheath around them ? Have you forgotten your Mother's love and therefore you are so disturbed? As the glass protects the lamp, in the same way my love will protect you. But the glass should be kept clean. How can I explain? Have I to say like Shri Krishna “Leave all religions and surrender to me” or as Shri Jesus "I am the way, I am the door”.

I want to tell that I am that destination. But will you people accept it ? Will this fact go to your hearts? Although what I say is distorted, the truth will always stand.You cannot change what it is. Only you will remain ignorant and backward. I am unhappy because of that.

Diwali is the day of real aspirations. Invoke the whole universe. Many lamps have to be lit, and looked after. Add the oil of love, Kundalini is the wick and awaken the Kundalini of others with light of the spirit within you. This flame of Kundalini will be kindled and one within you will become the torch. Torch is not extinguished. Then there will be spotless sheath of my love. It will neither have any limits nor any end. I will be watching you.

My love for you is showering as many, many blessings.

Yours always loving Mother NlRMALA"

Translation of Shri Mataji Marathi Letter

Translation of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi’s ‘Old Marathi Letter’

Man wants peace, wealth, power, etc., but God is the origin of all these. Then why should there not be the desire for God? Why should there be no aspiration and ambition to meet God? We should pray to God for peace, and keep the desire to meet God who is peace itself. This should be the difference in satisfaction of a common man and that of a Sahaja Yogi. One should be ready to surrender the very desire to meet God at God’s holy feet. All attention must be on Him. For that – one must have dedication, determination and concentration (tapasvita), in that all material attachments should be destroyed. What is there in this world to cling to? You must realize the glory of those feet in which all fades, and becomes peaceful. Only then, will you have your glory!.

Why should one brag of one’s achievements? You must understand that whatever is being done by you, is all God’s power, that is, the working of the Adi Shakti and you are only the witnesses to see these miracles. For achieving that stage, you should pray:

“May our ‘I consciousness’ fade away. May the truth that all of us are a small part of your being be assimilated within us, so that your Divine bliss would resonate every particle of our bodies and this life would be filled with beautiful melodies enchanting the whole of mankind, and showing the light to the rest of the world”.

Let love flow from your hearts. Love is unlimited. Your love is unlimited. Your attention is on material things and you are talking about eternity. Your attention should merge in eternity, so that you will have eternal life.

You are officials of God’s kingdom – then why are you sulking? All deities are your elder brothers in this kingdom. They are present in many forms along the path of Kundalini. You should recognize them and attain them. Kundalini is your Mother. Learn to always remain under Her care. Be Her child, and She will take you to the Ultimate. Once you accomplish that, from where everything is born, you will have the rest very easily!

But you are not consistent in the practice of meditation, love, and a peaceful life. You are talking casually even to me. But how eager you are in worldly matters! How adamant you become on having what you want! Why are you not casual in that respect instead? Do not run away from the reality because I am Mahamaya! Attain Me; I am yours! I am for you. I have given you that which has been beyond the reach of very great sages and saints. How will you make use of it? You have been given a very big asset. Thousands of stars and planets were created with just its one wave!

There is great significance to your rebirth. But you, yourselves, have to achieve that – you, yourselves have to find the meaning of “SWA” (Self)! Sahaja Yogis can do it. It is a big contrivance. I have told you the secret, but what have you achieved? Nobody sulks, having been benefited. ‘You are unhappy’ means you have not been benefited! If you achieve the trick, you will open the gate of Joy and forget yourself, while enjoying the bliss!

Nobody becomes happy from worldly matters. I have given you the key to the treasure, which others haven’t got. But you must work to open the Door! You have taken everything casually. You want Mataji to feed you, to wake you up in the morning, to make you sit in meditation, and to clean you of anger, hatred etc…

Today is the day of Guru Puja. What ‘Guru Dakshina’ (Gif to the Guru) have you given me? Understand that your money is not worth the dust on the feet of your Mother Guru! You should give your hearts – only clean and holy hearts. You must clean your physical beings. Do not be lazy in that. Make a vow! You must get up early in the morning and spend at least one hour on meditation and worshipping. Perform ‘Aarti’ and meditation in the evening.

Satan’s disciples work hard at a funeral place [a dead place]. I cannot understand why you are taking everything so casually! Stop all gossiping! Leave all jealousies and quarrels! Time never waits for anyone. Do you want to go empty-handed, despite having the Key to the Treasure?!

If you do not accept God’s kingdom, Satan’s kingdom will come, and you will have yourself to blame for it! Remember, because you Sahaja Yogis are dear people, [that] you have been selected as officials. If you ignore it, on the one hand you will be deprived of a great source of joy, and on the other hand, you will lose your authority, due to the incomplete knowledge of Sahaja Yoga. Hence, be wise and stand firm! Every movement has thousands of directions. Let your ray; spread in different directions. You will do the welfare to the whole world. Get over your ‘inaction to act’! You are to be captains! Let God’s melodies be sounded from your flutes.

Transcend in your feelings above those who have not been realized and blessed, and God’s kingdom will be yours. May you get that auspiciousness? All my efforts are for that! You have been made like temples. Keep it clean.

Some of you are enjoying yourselves in the ocean of bliss! My blessings are that all of you should be happy. Your worldly life and satisfaction should be of the same level. A Sahaja Yogi’s satisfaction and the circumstances he is in, are balanced. Both of our legs grow together! If one leg is shorter than the other, you will become lame! I do not want to tell you to lower the level of your circumstances, if the contentment is less. But a Sahaja Yogi’s satisfaction does not depend on circumstances. He is happy in the circumstances that are prevailing. If he is not, then his satisfaction is superficial, and not from within! May God grant you an eternal place at His feet!

Your Mother.

Nirmala
