Question: Shri Mataji, you talk about our habits and weakness and how to overcome that. Question: You talk about our habits and weakness and how to overcome that. Can You talk a little bit more about it? Shri Mataji: See, we are weak because we are ignorant first of all. As I told you, we are holding the snake and there’s darkness and in that darkness we don’t see that this is going to bite us. But, when you become enlightened, you become a very powerful, dynamic person, absolutely. And you separate yourself from your habits. You see it very clearly. Then you don’t talk that “I have this habit or that habit.” You don’t say like that. Like a person would come and say, “Mother, you know, my Agnya is catching; this chakra is catching. That means I have too much ego.” But they don’t say, “I have ego.” I mean if you tell somebody, “You have ego,” they’ll hit you hard, isn’t it? But if a person gets it, he feels it. And he says, “Mother, I have too much problem with the Agnya Chakra so please clear it up.” So, if you have any habits – say supposing there are people who used to take drugs. In the beginning I had horrible people in England, about seven of them, all drug addicts and things. Of course, very well-educated, professors and things, but all drug addicts, hippies and violent people, really. When they came to Me, it was not easy to handle them. But they are today the foundation of Sahaja Yoga. Wonderful people they are. Now what happened, they said, “We want to get rid of it but we can’t. We just can’t help it.” But you will be amazed, overnight they gave up, overnight. Just it happens because you see the light and you throw the snake, just happens. You don’t have to think about it, just happens. I never tell them these Ten Commandments – don’t do this, don’t do that. Don’t tell them. Just it works from within. Why should I tell them? Why should I give them a lecture? There’s no need. They themselves become their own master and the mastery is that the master cures and gives you powers. You develop that dignity; it’s remarkable what happens. To Me, it’s not a surprise because I know what you are. You are so glorious. It’s like you take a small little, say a television to a remote corner of India and in some village and show them and say that “Here is a place, this box will show you all the kinds of music and all kinds of dramas and this.” They say, “What? This box? How is it going to work out?” And, you put it to the mains and it starts working and they say, “It’s fantastic.” It’s like that. We are fantastic, we are glorious but we have yet to be connected, that’s all. It just happens, you don’t have to force yourself, you don’t have to do anything. It just works. The inner force works it out.
“I didn’t want to shatter your egos before, never to tell you in these words.
Perhaps this is the first time I’m saying this to you – that you have to dedicate yourself completely to Me, not to Sahaja
Yoga but to Me. Sahaja Yoga is just one of My aspects. Leaving everything, you have to dedicate. Complete dedication –
otherwise you cannot ascend any further. Without questioning, without arguing. Complete dedication is the only way you
can achieve it. People still get caught up. Still get into problems. What’s the reason? So many people ask Me, that once
we have got realisation, how is it Mother we go down? The only reason is that dedication is not complete. If complete
reverence and complete dedication has not been established you still do not know that I’m divine – to that extent as you
should.”
Complete Dedication the Only Way

And the analogy could be, like the gas that rises and touches the flicker and the whole gas gets enlightened. The flicker is awake all the time and watching. Then the whole thing becomes the truth. Truth is very different from what we know as truth. Is new dimension, by which we know, this is the truth and this is not the truth. You can ask any questions when you are connected with your Spirit. Ask any question. Ask the question about me. Can ask question about Christ, about Moses, about God. Ask any question. And when the answer is “yes,” you’ll get cool breeze coming into your hands. If you ask any negative questions, you’ll lose your vibrations. Might get tingling, might get heat. Because now your computer is connected with the Absolute and the rapport has been established of the truth. This is a newawareness you get by which you become aware of truth which is the vibratory awareness…
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
“In the center… mutual bondage… of love”
“DEDICATION – transmitting Divine Love & Compassion to others, to everything…”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
“You have to have a very, very large heart, bigger than your personality, bigger than your country, bigger than this world, bigger than this universe”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
“Give large heart of Compassion to others… Will make others grow… Give the nessessary nourishment to other… Take this compassion everywhere… You are here for a very great universal task… for a global task… epitome of our evolution… Don’t divert your attention to anything that is not fulfilling your manifestataion… your Compassion, your Love… sucking vibrations, and giving vibrations… happenning… allow this to happen to you… “Am I the one who is giving vibrations to others?”… employed by God…”
The first knot is created by our attention becoming entangled with matter and materialism.
it starts from Muladhara, moves up to the left channel and created superego.
By its action we lose sight of the Spirit.
To overcome it we should put our attention on the Spirit and not on worldly matters.
2. Vishnu-granthi
The second knot is the one by which we think that we can “do” something and achieve something in this world.
The more we think and strive and live with our ambition, the more its action moves up to the right side and created ego.
Human beings cannot break the second knot, only God can do it.
So here we must respect ourselves and surrender ourselves to God.
3. Rudra-granthi
The third and last knot occurs on the central channel due to artificiality in seeking.
We have to be truthful and honest in our seeking, absolutely on the truth.
We are seeking the Spirit, to become one with the Spirit and all our attention should go on the Spirit and should not be frittered away on nonsensical things.
The other day I was talking about love. Now the love, as it is understood, is in your heart as this; but do you know the ocean of love is your Sahasrara? When your Sahasrara is filled with love, then the life is changed. You don’t become a very intelligent man, a very dynamic personality, but you are nothing but love, and this love is so self-satisfying. You are not bothered if others don’t love you or they love you. You don’t see to that part. What you see is the enjoyment from that love. It’s a tremendous ocean of love. You all have got it. And once you have entered into Sahaja Yoga, you know that you have entered into Sahasrara. And Sahasrara is the – I tell you – the source of all the truth. Truth is there – the complete truth. Truth is the knowledge and also the truth is love.If you love somebody, you know the truths about that person. You find out whether the person is good or bad or anything. It’s very difficult. But if you love that person, then immediately you know what’s wrong with that person, what’s right from that person. But because of your love, you encompass the whole atmosphere between you and him or between you and others. You don’t see the bad points easily – very difficult. …So residing in the Sahasrara, if you see the waves of love flowing, maybe some people might take advantage of it, doesn’t matter, makes no difference. Some people can also mislead you, it’s all right, all kinds of things they do, but, when there is love, you see, you are satisfied, you are not bothered, because you love everyone. …Anybody who has innocence would know the technique of love. If you are very clever, intelligent, you can answer back, you can correct people, do that. No. That’s not the way. If you have love, you can correct people without saying anything to them, because love is a supreme intelligence. It gives you all the correct method. It works out that. The whole thing works out that, and then people say, ‘Mother, it’s a miracle how it has happened.’ No, no, it’s no miracle, is simple thing, that love has acted in its own way. Love is not a dead thing. It’s not a dead sea. It not only thinks, but it acts and acts so beautifully. Sometimes I’m amazed at its working. We call it a miracle, this, that. Nothing – it’s love. …Love should be just open. Then you will see where do you stand as far as your country’s concerned, as far as your relationships are concerned. You will know everything. You need not harm, you need not say anything, you need not quarrel, fight, but you will know – because love gives you knowledge, complete knowledge about the person. You know the person, what he’s up to, what he’s doing, but you don’t mind because you love that person. So you don’t mind. ‘All right, go ahead.’ It’s like a little child. It’s going on the wrong way. Let it go.Now with all these things, whatever you wear, you are very lucky people who have reached Sahasrara and that you all know everything about Sahaja Yoga. But without practicing Sahaja Yoga, you cannot work it out because then, by practicing it, you’ll know about your Self. When you meditate you’ll know your Self, and then you get just filled with love. But now, while sitting, you just start thinking, ‘He’s a very bad man. I hate him,’ this thing. All such stupid ideas come into your head – or ‘I must buy this ornament’ or ‘I must buy this particular car’ and all that, then you are not loving. But if you love, then what happens is that whatever you need, you get. Whatever you want, you get.
You have to first love yourself, but that love should be pure love. As a result of that, you’ll cleanse yourself. Sometimes you are so much identified with your temperaments, with your nature, with you personality, whatever it is, but then you realize, in that love, that ‘This is not love. This is blind.’
Love gives you a complete idea about yourself. ‘What am I? What problems I have? Why do I create problems? Why do I get into problems?’ You’ll be amazed that love has such a powerful light in it, that it is the truth and it is the knowledge. …
And this love is universal. It has nothing to do with any particular type or particular style. It’s universal. That is why Sahaja Yoga is universal. It is spreading everywhere. I want you to enjoy that love. …
So I would request you to find out that ocean in your head at the Sahasrara, which is being filled by your heart. Do you know Heart and Sahasrara are very much in relationship with each other? Their style is such that if somebody’s head is not all right, the heart won’t be all right. If the heart is not all right, his head won’t be all right. But is more reflection from the head to the heart.
They say that there’s genes are bad or this – nothing of the kind. After Sahaja Yoga, your genes are changed, you are changed; everything is changed now. So your brain is filled with nothing but light. Your heart is filled with light and you are just bouncing with love, all the time with humor, with loving care. Every day, I mean, it’s so different. But that you have achieved now, now you have got it. So just enjoy that. …
I don’t know what else to say. I mean, it is something I would like you to do, for you to get it, this kind of life where you just flow with your love.
May God bless you very well.

“Love begets love…If someone has love, it just spreads… one has to learn to see this love in the other person… enjoy love… we are in love… source of love is there… the feeling of love is there… only one can be in it, and enjoy it… THE GREATES GURU THAT WE HAVE IS LOVE, SAHAJ LOVE… teaches us, leads us… works and expresses itself… as light… innocent… cannot be described… has to be felt… Guru loves you, and you love Guru… Love is Love… enjoy each other fully from our heart… there is this Ocean within us… submerged within this Ocean…being Sahaj… Love… you enjoy yourself, and everybody else…
it is there, and it works…

“The light of Love is so sweet, so beautiful, so enamoring, so abounding. You can feel that Light within you which is of pure love, pure relationship and pure understanding.” Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi

It is my vision.
