Attachments are so many, still in Sahaja Yoga ...

difficult to be dynamic like other angels
Imagine, with so many angels [that you are],  the whole of England should get realization in no time, but we are still trying to learn what we are. Hanumana had no problem because from His childhood He knew that He was an angel and He has to do the job of an angel.
But, because we were born as human beings and now we have become angels, we find it difficult to be dynamic like other angels were.
even your individual thought, is powerful...
 
Even your thought, collective thought, even your individual thought, is powerful, and your attention is powerful.
Because of this fear, or maybe the conditionings as you can call it, or maybe the ego part which is still sticking onto you, you still hang around false things, and that force, that dynamism is not expressed.
I have to do it, so I'll do it. .
We can blame anything, like we can blame lethargy to some country, ego to some country, but now you have lost your countries completely,...

Now imagine Hanumana as Gabriel, had to go and tell Maria that there's a Child which is the incarnation. "The Savior is going to be born to you". She was a young virgin! To break such a news which was horrible, compared to the conditionings of those days! He did it. "I have to do it, so I'll do it. If that's the order, I'll do it." Because He knew that the carrying out of the order is His nature, is built within Him and He's not going to doubt it. He's not going to wait, but just told and He does it.
So a great understanding has to be within us, that we are growing within ourselves, but if we do not manifest, if we do not show our qualities, and if we do not express it in our life, in our doing, in our object, in the meaning of our life, then Sahaja Yoga is not going to spread; nor is it going to help you much.
Shri Mataji, in the fifties
(...) Coming to Sahaja Yoga is not [about] what we have gained, what we have got. See: there are people who say, "We've done so much for Sahaj Yoga and what Sahaja Yoga has given us?" It has given you Self Realization. It has given you the angel status. I mean:  you try anything else, can you get the status of an angel? You cannot! Sahaja Yoga has given you that status, so what more do you want? It was never possible before, believe Me, impossible situation! If it was possible in anyway then Gyaneshwara would not have taken his samadhi at such a young age, and Kabira would not have said, "Oh God, what am I to do, this world is blind."
So you have that subtle power within you that you can work out on people's Kundalini without even their knowing about it. But in meditation when you sit down, you must admit to yourself, "I am an angel and as being an angel, I have no attachments with anything else but with God's work."
Unconvenient truths - Comforting lies
Attachments are so many. Still in Sahaja Yoga I've seen people have, like attachments to, now because they're married, so they are attached to wives. And so many have fallen out because of their wives' attachments. Then they have attachments to their children, and so many will fall out if they have attachments to their children. ...
When I see you so lovingly
... Then there are other attachments like possessions, positions, jobs - I have none so I don't know what others have!
Except for when I see you so much lovingly coming to the station, then the whole heart becomes like an ocean I think, and just starts like a big swell of a tide, ...
...The attachments do not give you the capacity to enjoy that ocean. If you are standing on the shore, how will you enjoy the ocean? You have to jump into it. But you've got your anchorage onto different things, so you can't jump in. And you are so safe. You know how to swim, you know how to kill a shark, even one sight of yours is sufficient. But because you're not aware, it is not active. Absolutely this is the case.
I've seen people who get small positions in life and they start boasting about it - "I met this-and-this man, I met that-and-that man, and this happened and that happened" - you feel like laughing at the person!
But you have met Sahaja Yoga, by which you have grown, you have been nourished, you have become so great.
