...THE REASON I FIND THAT IN THE WEST PEOPLE GO ON CATCHING

....WE ARE NOT HERE ONLY JUST TO HAVE GOOD TIME
...WHAT ARE YOU SURRENDERING… WITH ALL YOUR ARROGANCE?

...I HOPE YOU'LL PAY FULL ATTENTION

THE REASON I FIND THAT IN THE WEST PEOPLE GO ON CATCHING

…You know that by puja you excite the Chakras within Me and you get lots of vibrations, and you achieve, suddenly, a height in your awareness. You do achieve that, but after some time they say that "Mother, again we come down." Also, they were saying that “When we go to India we are all right, and when we come back again, we come down."

… So ashram is here for a collective living, but collective living of spirituality. … Then only you'll be helped – because if you do not come to the ashram with this idea that you are going there to ascend yourself, it will make no difference whether you stay in the house or you go in the ashram.

(SB:How is it that so many Ashrams have closed down since 1990? – if they were meant to help to deepen Sahaja yoga? What did happen?)

...So there are two types of meditation, two types, where one is the meditation where – we can call it the antarmana– that we meditate inside ourselves, to see for ourselves what's wrong with us, and how we have to correct, what we have to do about it. And another is bahirmana, is outside, how we have to live outside. You have to have a discipline, which is not imposed on you but, very happily, which you have accepted and have imbibed. …

( SB:Do we have any discipline? How serious were we about meditating, say, before a puja in Cabella?)

So, for the antarmana it is important that you all should meditate, …

That is the reason I find that in the West people go on catching, again cleaning, again catching.

Every time I come, {I} find somebody is suffering from either, of some sort of a conditioning, or say, some sort of a baddha, or sometimes it's ego, or something.

It comes and goes. It is not something that is detached permanently. …

WE ARE NOT HERE ONLY JUST TO HAVE GOOD TIME

Day by day, you should be at a much higher state, and this new breeding has to come within us that we are Sahaja yogis,and we are not here only just to have good food and to have nice time or nice meetings, but we are here to become those unique personalities, which are required to raise the humanity to a higher state.

(SB:Again: how much time is dedicated to solve this issue, in Cabella, be it because of us individuals, be it the agenda of the organizers?)

So you have to be now responsible for yourself.

You have to look after yourself and you have to tell yourself: . "Mr. So-and-so, Mrs. So-and-so, please now behave yourself." Otherwise, Sahaja Yoga is lost to you. It's not going to help you much.

We might increase in quantity, but quality-wise we'll be missing, and one attack of negativity can finish such a quantity that we think is too much – it has happened once!

(Let’s follow carefully this explanation:are we dangerously placed?)

WHAT ARE YOU SURRENDERING… WITH ALL YOUR ARROGANCE?

So now, all of you must develop that dedication to yourself, to find out what's your problem, and how you have to correct it. If it is done every day, I can assure you, you will have no problem of any kind. Your thoughts will stop, your problems will be solved, and you'll have no catches at all, because you have washed them off.

.../... Many people say that

"We are surrendered to Mother, and we are surrendered to Her, and as surrendering we’ll get everything."

But what are you surrendering? -Is that a clean heart, or a heart full of all kinds of wrong things? Or is that the intelligence, which is a very superior type of clean intelligence? Or else, are you coming out with all your arrogance? So, though there is the Ganges of Sahaja Yoga flowing, still you have to have the depth of a pitcher. A stone cannot fetch any water.

(Obviously, “surrendering” might NOT be the solution when WE are responsible, and expected to act. In the Bhagavad Gita, Shri Krishna assured the victory, but Arjuna had to fight)

.../…So you are not achieving all this for your ego. You are achieving it because you are a seeker, and now ,you have become a Sahaja yogi. So it is to be understood that it's not something like an advantage in money wise, or something that I have to have a power, this, that - because, if you do not meditate, your attention will go to such things.

Immediately you'll start thinking:"Can I become the leader?" All right, if not: "Should I debase the leader? How can I insult him? How can I fight for that? How can I do that? How can I work it out this way?" You try to insult also.

If not possible, you might use violence sometimes,anger, because you are not yet, I should say, that much evolved, so much mature, so much wiser.

(SB: Obviously, the divisions, since 2003, 2005, 2011, the conflicts, the , world-wide, national, local splits in the Sangha, even physical fights as have occurred in India, have a cause: the level of meditation IS NOT what it should be in order to fulfill Mother’s wishes. In the following, Shri Mataji admits “and we have many”)

TO WARN YOURSELF

So now, what you have to do is to … at the very first shot when you get up in the morning, you first say that "Let me see, what is my responsibility, as a Sahaja yogi?" …"Mother, if I have any ego, please take away. Mother, if I have any conditioning, please take away; because I'm a seeker out and out, I don't want all these things."
But if you do not meditate,then this Mr. Ego will secretly crawl upon you,and you may try to become the leader, or some sort of an assertion you'll do,some sort of a stupid ego actions, which we have many in Sahaja Yoga.

If you write them down, you will not know how to stop laughing.

So to warn yourself, I would say that the only way to protect yourself is to do the meditation in the morning and evening, and also to keep yourself in complete bandhan.

Yours is a very important role and a very important time, extremely important.

You have no idea, that in the history of spirituality

no one could do so much as you can do.

So, if you really do the antarmana, if you really see inside yourself, while meditating you see yourself, your chakras and all that, and then you find out this introspection, "Why am I like this?" Just separate from yourself, see for yourself, "Why am I like this? Why I did like this? Why do I think like this? Who am I?"

-these questions, when answered, you will know all your worth, your value.

… I HOPE YOU'LL PAY FULL ATTENTION

I hope you'll pay full attention to what I've said here today, with full attention on your inner being projecting out, like a witness to yourself.
( Mother is not speaking just “by the way”: She stresses that this issue is fundamental)
Now, we are here to gain our spirituality, not to gain money, not to gain positions, powers, nothing. We are here to gain our spirituality, and in that spirituality, it's all there. All the satisfaction, everything is there. …

( and NOTHING else)

A column of uttermost actuality

«Hallucination ....out of compassion ! - the game of power...»

It's said that at Sahasrara the Goddess incarnates as Mahamaya; because the job She has to do is of a very different nature. At the heart chakra, Anhata, She has to just defend, just defend the seekers from the clutches of the evil forces which are also not so subtle. They are very gross-like forms, human forms. And it's easy to fight and have a war with them, kill them.

But at the point of Sahasrara, the work is very complicated. First of all, the Sahasrara of the human beings is itself a very complicated thing. First of all, it's not that the time is very precarious, but also every country has its own complication to add to Sahasrara. Apart from that, you know, in Sahasrara we have got the seats of all the centers, not only the seven centers we are dealing with. And so many Nadis... are worked out through Sahasrara.
(...) But today, it being incarnated in it's full force, is acting through you. Is acting towards you.
It is helping you in a very big way, which I don't know if the complicated brains are aware of. So many dimensions it is working, because first of all, we have this horrible thing called ego. ... Many people, in Sahaj Yoga also, think like that, start thinking that they are something great.

... With some people it may act in a way that you want to enjoy the game of power, those who have missed it or those who know how to use it.
There could be another type who are the ones who think they have always suffered and they are suffering now also.
There can be another type of a group of people, who - when they come to Sahaj Yoga - they have complications of emotions. I know of some people, I've heard, that they felt attraction for a man or a woman and they started behaving in that fashion - after coming to Sahaj Yoga.
Sometimes the attraction to money, attraction to greed and lust becomes subtler.
...
So the Mahamaya being the subtler force, - is the subtlest of all!, which you cannot understand and can explain through your brains, at all - acts and just stupefies, it stupefies them. Unless and until that is done they cannot stop it, they cannot cut themselves away. They - in a subtler way - they remain the same, but not aware of it. People who are miserly become miserly, in a very subtle way, in a very sophisticated way, but they are miserly. Those who are dominating become dominating in a subtler way.
... And that's why the Mahamaya acts. First of all it stupefies you, completely. So you realize that whatever you think or react to something, to certain situations, it's a Maya, is just a hallucination created.

....
"Maha" means the great, because it has all the powers of all the Deities, it controls all the Deities; it surmounts over all the Deities.
And "Maya" also means love and compassion. All this effort for what? People don't understand. In the west people don't understand why am I doing it? There must be some reason:-It's compassion!
But the play of the compassion comes through the Mahamaya power. ...
