Maya is important, -Maya should give you enjoyment

...is created by human beings
«... So they say that this maya is created by God. No. 
Maya that God has created is this world, this whole universe and all that. 
But this illusive life is created by human beings. Absolutely, through their projections of their brains and mental capacities, they have projected because money is everything. If money is everything, by hook or crook, if you have to get the money, then, do what you like. And every day you read in the newspaper horrible stories about how people want to make money, how they want to sell their daughters, how they want to sell their wives. Anything is all right as long as you have money. If you can make money, nothing matters. .../...
[On contemporary life-styles] So it's an anti-maya. Because Mahamaya has come, so anti-maya has come. 
Fifty years back or sixty years back, it was not that bad, I can tell you. Once in a while people used to do something nonsensical, but now it is rampant. But it now has become a fashion. It's worse than that, is that accepted as a fashion, and if you're not in it, you're "out". You have to be in the madhouse. You should see this clearly, because now you have come into the Maya of God. 
Maya also means love, the God's love, and, in that, your eyes should open out and see: what horrible things they are doing: what is this disco? .../...

So here, again, the Mahamaya has to work and the Mahamaya works this way, that She integrates all the religions. She shows that all religions are the same, have the same spirituality. It's on the same tree of spirituality, they have grown. Instead of making people spiritual, they have made them money-oriented or they have made them power-oriented. I mean it's the other way round. It's like the tree growing underneath or something, something absurd that you cannot explain and that is the thing is that illusive.

That illusiveness is called Maya
And this illusiveness appeals to many people. Appeals - that's the point I'm worried about. Something is illusive, then they go on running after that like a mirage and ultimately they are destroyed.
So what you see, a picture just now, is that at least so many - ten percent people - will be saved, at the most.

But this is a very sad affair because it has taken so much effort to make human beings, to make them all right, to make them sensible, and now what you find is that they are going to be all finished. It's too much to bear, too much to believe in, but it is going to happen, if you people do not take it up seriously and work it out.
For you, also, there should not be any illusions,  because many of you are more busy with other things. To you other things are more important than Sahaja Yoga. 
But whatever you are doing, you can bring in Sahaja Yoga into that. Into anything you can bring in Sahaja Yoga. I said in politics, in agriculture, in social life, in your jobs, everywhere you can bring Sahaja Yoga.

By your own behavior, by your own intelligence, you can bring in Sahaja Yoga into every field, which you have to think about, "Where can we take Sahaj Yoga to? Where can we work it out?" 
And this is what is to get into the Maya of God, that you get rid of all the illusions which are false, which do not allow you to see the right thing, and then seriously to get into the productive side of Sahaja Yoga.
Can you imagine how productive is Sahaja Yoga, how the miracles work out, how there is this Divine Power is anxious to help, despite all this Mahamaya and all that?.../... 
So this is it. The Maya is like this, that it allows you to do what you like. You use your freedom. You go places to places. Do what you want to do. Whatever you think it proper, you do it. All right, this is a part of the Maya, but Mahamaya is that which brings you back, brings you back to normal, brings you back to reality, to understand. It is at that point when you understand Mahamaya..../...

Maya should give you enjoyment.

That's the best thing that this Maya can give, and you can enjoy it so much. I think it is a very beautiful atmosphere created by this Mahamaya. So you can enjoy each other, you can enjoy My company, you can enjoy nature. Such a rapport, such a beautiful understanding between everything else is there. Nobody is bothered as to who is higher, who is lower, what is the position; how much money he has got or what he has got. Nothing, just you're all enjoying. If somebody has a talent, he enjoys because he has a talent and the others also enjoy because he has talent. No jealousies, no rivalries, nothing. Somebody sings better, all right. .../...
... How did I do it? Just forget it!
Many people ask Me: "Mother, how did You do it?" 
-Forget it, it's Mahamaya, forget it! How did I do it? Just forget it! That part you need not go into. Just enjoy. Just enjoy that you are in that Maya and you are enjoying it. It's the best way to enjoy this Mahamaya. 
And today, for the first time, we have this Puja of Mahamaya. Because of Gudipadwa, I thought something unique must be done which encompasses everything of Sahaja Yoga, everything of Sahaja Yoga. 
... created for you.
It's not one incarnation, it's not one nadi, it's not one Goddess, but all of it is there. It's sometimes I say like a film is audio, visual, everything is there - drama, music, also acting. Everything is there in a film now. I mean that far: everything integrated. In the same way, I think Mahamaya has everything in it: every part that you tell Me, everything that you enjoy, everything that you discover. 
Everything is in that vision of Mahamaya, which has been created for you.

Sholapur, 1984

In India it is much easier to organize these lectures. Indians are very fond of listening to lectures. So that would be a good idea. 
But for westerners also, like in universities, you can handle professors and talk to them. 

Sofia, Bulgaria, 1990
On your own you can think of so many things that you can do. And, I’m sure one day will come that all these efforts will work out. As I told you about Buddha’s disciples used to do. And, I need not go to all these various places. You can manage it, and seeing you only, people will get to Sahaja Yoga much faster, because they’ll think, the one who has given them this, if they are so great, then that the person who has given must be greater and I need not see them, because sometimes they get disappointed to see me also.
.. this little housewife
They think that a person who was talking to us was very brilliant and this and that, and in my own swabhava of Mahamaya I try to fumble, and sometimes make mistakes, and try to become a simple housewife. 
And then people don’t understand that this little housewife, a government servant’s wife - you see, that’s another gone case! - and then an Indian Christian,  and all that thing, then
she’s must be hopeless.

So all these things, you see, make up for the mind and that’s how one can go into the final decision of the last judgment. 
You see, Mahamaya is the only way one can judge people. There’s no other way out. 
... see through the Maya
Those who can see through the Maya, only such people will be redeemed. 
Those who cannot see through the Maya cannot be redeemed. 
So Maya is important.
Now the last, but not the least, remember that your Mother loves you very much. (Long pause) 
Thank you very much.
