WHAT IS OUR RELIGION -3-

Now My staying in England is completing its twelfth year, and that is the reason I wanted to talk to you people about Sahaja Yoga. How far it has gone, and where are we lacking? 
The greatest thing that has happened is that we have established our religion. Nirmala Dharma as we call it, the Vishwa Nirmala Dharma. 
And you know the meanings of the words, 'Vishwa' means universal, 'Nirmala' means pure and 'Dharma' means religion. This has been established in America, and we have to register it here in England. 
Now it is very important that when we belong to a religion we have to know what are the commandments of that religion. And so far we have not drafted anything, it cannot be a thing made suitable to people or suitable to human beings, it cannot be. And it cannot compromise with your suitability.

So the first principle of Sahaj Dharma is, or what you call Vishwa Nirmala Dharma, is that you should be able to keep up your vibrations going as they are or increase them or improve on their sensitivity. The more sensitive you are, the better you are. If the sensitivity is lacking, then one must say that Sahaja Yoga has failed in you so far. And you have to work it out.

Today I was thinking of talking, telling you about the Sahaja Culture.
Now we are formed in dharma, Vishwa Dharma. But it must have a culture. So far in all the religions there is no combination of religion and culture. No religion has.

That's why every-where you find dif-ferent cul-tures, say, in India: people who follow Hindu religion have different cultures in different places. They are living in Lucknow, or say in U.P., they have a Muslim culture, more Islamic style. They'll eat in one plate, do all kinds of things which normally a South Indian won't do, and the South Indians have a different culture from Maharashtrians. So even in a religion like Hindu religion where culture is important, very important, we find varieties. 
So the cultures get influenced by the neighboring cultures or surrounding cultures, and that's how people get lost.
When you establish a religion like this, Vishwa Dharma, it's not like any other religion.

It's the real religion within us, and this reality comes to us because now we are one with the Spirit. So when we talk of Sahaja Culture, it is the culture of the Spirit.
