Jesus, collectivity and politics

Christ, showing us the way...
Now they may say that, «Mother, why should we be caught up? We are Sahaja Yogis!» Because you are vulnerable. You are vulnerable. Yet you have not reached that stage.[...]
You see that also today, I must tell you about the part that is politics. 
...So you find, I mean all every day you see and you say, "Oh! God, this is a decadent society. This has happened." Decadency is because an individual whom you have given all these powers, has no power to bear them.
An individual cannot bear money, he cannot bear power of any kind, he cannot bear love, he cannot bear kindness, he cannot understand peace because he is still an individual. 
But when an individual becomes the collective, this is the ascent through the central path.
When he becomes the collective in his strength, he strengthens the collective. 
And also the collective looks after, protects and guides the individual. This is what Sahaja Yoga is. 

Better find faults with yourself.

Enjoy the Joy...
...So the politics of Sahaja Yoga is that you have to become the collective personality. 
And there where we feel that still we are something great, we are different, we are Indians or we are from England, or from France, {2013: American, Russian, Australian, LET, NT...}, still if you are identified, then you are not collective
In collective sense, we are all one, part and parcel of one Being, then you are really acting as collective being, and you are one with the Divine where the sun is looking after you, the moon is looking after you, the winds are looking after you, all the Mother Earth and all these elements are working -ether - everything is working for you,  and you are so well protected and blessed by this special quality to enjoy the joy. 
...he strengthens the collective
Then you really become sensitive to that joy, when you are one with the Whole.

You are going to be dropped out

Like if, supposing this finger or this finger is not one with the whole, is numbed out. As it happens in leprosy what happens that this finger becomes numbed out. Even if a rat eats it off we don't know, because there is no connection, no nerves acting, it's insensitive. 
In the same way, if you are not collective and not bothered about collective you are going to be dropped out, you are not going to be there to enjoy the beauties of your own glory and that of the collective.
So one has to understand that we have to be strong ourselves, we have to ascend and we have to be collective.
It's very easy to find out faults with others, very easy to find faults with the leaders, very easy to find faults also with Sahaja Yoga, some times with Me. Better find faults with yourself. The rest I'll look after. First you just find faults with yourself and try to understand others, and love others, and enjoy the company of others. This, once you decide that we have to enjoy, I tell you - it's so spontaneous- just this decision, this faith within you that "I'm going to enjoy now my spirit, I'm going to enjoy the collective within me" - that's the spirit. 
...No sacrifice...
Just this decision itself will give you the power to enjoy. But decision should be firm. No hypocrisy, no playing games, no ego, no conditioning, nothing - just pure desire within us that we have to be the spirit and the spirit which is the collective being within us.
I hope today on this day of resurrection we have to be thankful to Christ very much for showing us the way.
And also we have to be very much concerned and alerted about ourselves: where are we, where do we stand, what are we up to, what are we doing, what is our responsibility, what is expected of us, why all these blessings are given to us? There's no sacrifice in Sahaja Yoga, no sacrifice. Nobody wants you - anything to commit or to do, or to membership, or anything like that. 
I think it's my commitment, as I said that, "God has the commitment."
But you also have one commitment that your desires should be pure. That's the only thing that, "Let my desire be pure." No impurities of any kind should work it out. As Christ had His desires so pure, and that's what He achieved, I'm sure you all can achieve a lot in your life.

Swayamblogger comments

When a yogi is so conditionned as to believe he can be just, 'Australian' or 'Russian' (you name it), he is no more in the central path, and is too weak to bear properly neither power nor money. Eventually, he will end up... well, find Shri Mataji's conclusion in the text.
