Sad'Shiva -Final Manifesto February 23, 2014
Lets us first witness the present situation in its depths. Three points and a conclusion
1/ The last appreciations about our Samadhis, by Shri Mataji, were very clear:
«…At Agnya Chakra many Sahaja yogis falter, I don't know what happens to them. At Agnya I have told that you must forgive. But that doesn't mean that you allow people to do wrong things.» 2002-06/23: Shri Adi Shakti Puja, Cabella
« …if you have to become with the divine creation, you have to get to that state of thoughtless awareness, minimum of minimum.» Diwali Puja, Lake Piru, California, 2002-11/03
So, the level that Shri Mataji had been expecting from us since 1970 was not reached in 2002. And after, what did we do?
Nothing. Nothing has been done since, to make sure that each yogi could, and would, give to these talks their real importance, and even less was produced about the practice of meditation. (*)
Nevertheless, Shri Mataji taught clearly about Nirvichara being the first step of meditation, produced by an opened Agnya; Nirvikalpa should come next, in Sahasrara, becoming "the Shiva": « only there you can call yourself a 'sahaja yogi »
Instead, we have seen the development of more ritualism. This goes against the Realization of the Self of the person, and against Advaita, as it takes the 'Nirmalite' away from the Deity.
Another trend goes towards blind faith in the "Vibrations", as if the Divine was compelled to deliver us the answers, indifferently to the state of our Agnyas and Sahasraras.
The last trend goes down toward a mere technique for curing stress and sicknesses or mere "wellness"
->The sad reality is such that, on this point of meditation, we collectively failed Shri Mataji.
2/ Collectivity is the method by which Shri Mataji deviced fighting the development of the ego.
We all knew that, from the very beginning, and we had been warned that: «…But more I depend on your collectivity. The moment you start becoming unaware of your collectivity, immediately cancer starts going in my body. I get physical troubles because of that. So the collectivity is not what "you think of yourself, to be something great". It's not that you are above everything and you are this and you are that. »
And:
«…I would not exist in this body, if you people give me up, is a fact which I must accept and you must (consider). Anyway, because, see, now if you do not take my Vibrations, there will all be here, frozen, I will become a frozen mummy, only emitting Vibrations. That’s all. I won’t be speaking to you. It happens.» 1979-06/05: About Collectivity, Dollis Hill, London, UK
Trustees here and councilors there, leaders and their followers, have consciously and voluntarily failed Shri Mataji, while all of us have kept 'prudently' quiet. Some 'Nirmalites' are still shedding tears, on their own. Others just withdrew from our organizations. Elders took shelter in their remembrances of the more glorious times in the 80'es.
->"Don't let me down!", said Shri Mataji in a very special Diwali talk in 1985. The sad reality is known to everyone.
3/ Who could have treated the disease of Shri Mataji?
What was the Body of Shri Mataji, nobody knows. «I don’t know if I exist in this body or not.» (Sahasrara Day, France, 1984) said She.
But Mother told us frequently one secret: « I am a collective being of all of you»
Having revealed one of Her aspects, She exposed the consequences: « …Because you are in My body…. It’s a funny type of a crucifixion, when every moment you are hanged onto a cross by anyone who wants to do it. …»
- According to simple logics: Have we been Her disease?
She precised: « Sahaja yogis have all the laws in their hands to torture my life, to trouble me if they want to…» (All quotes: Sahasrara Puja, 1987).
- Yes, we did this, yes, we were that! The medical treatments, as well as the revolt against doctors, are both the sign of the ignorance of Mother's advices, and of our two failures: collectivity and meditation. They both acted as malignant agents in Her Body, and, in Her compassion, She did not reject them (us), preferring this long, endless, crucifixion. Let's remember that the first expression of the MahaMaya, is compassion. (Mahamaya puja, 1985 UK)
->Another extremely sad, and final, reality.
CONCLUSIONS
Here, we should come to conclusions. Shri Mataji gave some, finally:
« This is the biggest calamity that the world is facing today, that those who are all so spiritual, those who have achieved great heights are least bothered as to what good has to be done.» (-AdiShakti 2002).
Sad'Shiva has only questions:
-What is the use of giving realization, if we have, after a time, to bring people to seminars where Sangham is fragmented, and defies love and friendship, -worldwide?
- What is the use of giving realization, and introducing them to ritualistic pujas, where Samadhi is shrinking? Just pretending to adore, without practicing?
-What is the use of presenting the teachings of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, if the same Sahaj organizations, have been showing no transformation for 20 years? («… Our manifestation is a big zero- Brahmapuri, 1989- ...So many people have complained to Me that Sahaja yogis are nothing but dead people.., -Adi Shakti, 2002)
« … you have to ascertain first: are you capable of being your guru or not. …. First of all you can use a group if you want, and afterwards, you should do it individually. ... Whatever you teach, you must practice. »
Answers, maybe, could be found by each Nirmalite -' individually'- by devotedly listening to the Guru Puja 2008, because Shri Mataji did know everything beforehand: back to the root.

First post: "A 1990 warning of Mother"
When the author started this blog in April 2011, he didn't think of welcoming ever five thousands visits. I decided to publish it because we do not have generally real discussions, for instance in Cabella, about those deep issues such as the aims of meditation, responsibilities, collective leadership...
But, instead, since 2003, we suffer division and rivalries.
Confusion, "Bhraanti", is dominant in the Sahaj Collective.

WHY does this SwayamBlog EXIST?- page created in 2011-First post: "A 1990 warning of Mother"
When the author started this blog in April 2011, he didn't think of welcoming ever five thousands visits. I decided to publish it because we do not have generally real discussions, for instance in Cabella, about those deep issues such as the aims of meditation, responsibilities, collective leadership... But, instead, since 2003, we suffer division and rivalries.
Confusion, "Bhraanti", is dominant in the Sahaj Collective.
So I try to go back to Mother's teachings, which appear to have been "constant", through the variations and combinations of Her travels, and the different audiences.
A solid frame of Wisdom is woven here, only we have to go back to the Talks, and listen that they are meant for us, and for us just HERE and NOW! I believe that, in many ways, we, as a Collective, have forgotten to listen and to pay attention, otherwise, this confusion would not have prevailed.
WORSE: I hear "Mother has said everything and its contrary", so that people (trustees included) can violate any teaching, and specially those advices that Qhri Mataji has been CONSTANTLY repeating during 30 years, such as: becoming the Spirit (Shiva), building up a solid collectivity, which have been so basic to Her that her body depended on 'that'.

What is important is that we should have very deep Sahaja Yogis, otherwise Sahaja Yoga will fritter away.
( The expansion) ...in a very big way, maybe it will be difficult for us to really balance it out, but when we move horizontally we must also know that we have to move vertically.
Otherwise what will happen, that we'll lose in quality.
Quantity may be quite a lot, but we'll lack in quality.
And if the quality goes down then you will see many will fritter away.
So we have to look after our vertical ascent, which is very important.
…I'm Myself amazed that in geometrical proportions Sahaja Yoga is rising very high. But that should not be [to our] complete satisfaction.
Individually, also, we have to rise. And every one of you has to rise. Vertical ascent has to be achieved by all of you.
Some might have lost a little bit; some might have been a little bit away from themselves. The attention might have frittered away quite a lot, but we have to know why we are here, and then it's very easy.
We are here to be part and parcel of a very great revolution.
Can you imagine that we are transforming human beings? It was never possible.
We are here to be part and parcel of a very great revolution.
Can you imagine that we are transforming human beings? It was never possible.
En-masse transformation is going to take place. That is how this world is going to change, and you are part and parcel of that.
But when you become part and parcel of that you just forget sometimes that we have many things which are trying to pull us down. So we are happy to see the spread of Sahaja Yoga, but we don't see vertically what we are losing.
And that, I think, is a greater loss.
It doesn't matter if there are two persons less or more.
What is important is that we should have very deep Sahaja Yogis, otherwise Sahaja Yoga will fritter away.
So many events are going to happen and we are on the stage and we have to cooperate and coordinate and understand. ( … )
And in what an important position you are. And what an achievement you are going to have yourself and what a great boon you are going to bestow upon human beings.
So, when we come out of family life, for example, we have come to Sahaja Yoga, giving up all these things. Giving up all these mundane things, clothes, this, that, house, a car and then family life, relationships, everything. We came here to seek Truth and to be one with God. Not that you have to, sort of, take to Sanyasa, but given up means you are detached, and you are attached to one principle that you have to achieve godliness within you.
But when you come to Sahaja Yoga, and have seen the beauty of Sahaja Yoga, then again you want to go back to those useless things, then you cannot explain why it happens like that, like:
somebody gets married, he gets lost with his wife; he gets a house, he gets lost with the house; he gets a car, he gets lost with the car; he gets a job, he gets lost with the job; he gets a factory, he gets money: he gets lost!
So, what have you given up? The detachment is not there. When you have known there is no joy in all these things, that's why you have come to Sahaja Yoga. Joy is in one thing, is to be connected to the Divine Power, not to all these things. These are not important: you didn't come, out of hypocrisy, or you didn't come here, for any gains of a mean quality. You came for a very precious thing, something of supreme value. Giving up all that is so useless. You are among them, you are there, but if you get attached to it again, then you lose lots of your energy and mine, too. So, the detachment that you had developed before coming to Sahaja Yoga should be there.
But what I find, once they get into Sahaja Yoga, they get a job, "Now I'm busy with my job, I cannot do anything else." Another will say, "I have a school to attend to." "I have got my children." Somebody says, "My wife..." Then some become very romantic, they fall in love. All kinds of nonsense they do. When you have come in the boat how can you jump back?
So, it's very important to understand that we are Sahaja Yogis. Nothing can attract us, nothing can deter us, nothing can take away our attention, but one thing, that we are here for the emancipation of human beings and that our own character, our own style, our own personality is going to change it.
(… ) So now, when you have become the realized soul, you are the bird, you are the real free bird , which has got wings, which has got eyes, which can fly; which does not have those qualities, which you had as eggs. It's completely transformed, it's finished, it's mythical. You cannot become that now. If a bird wants to become an egg it will suffocate and die.

It's completely transformed, it's finished, it's mythical. You cannot become that now. If a bird wants to become an egg it will suffocate and die.
This reverse direction is not possible. But why? Why to be in the reverse direction? You should ask question to yourselves.
We have to ascend. So, in resurrection we have to learn detachment. It's only mental. I mean, I don't know, how can a bird be attached to an egg? It could be attached to an egg, thinking,"Oh, how cozy I was, I didn't have to fly! Or something like that could be, you see, I mean, only bad things there are to be an egg and to think about: an egg, but I don't know how it can be attached! On the contrary it would abhor that life - "Oh Baba. what I was, where I was!"
(… …) So, these temptations are there because we are not detached. So, on this great day I have to tell you that now we have become birds and we don't want to be eggs again, by any chance. You are not going to go back to that state. And we have to trigger so many things. You all have come to England, the whole England should be triggered.

new person: Forget it! If you have any problem then there is something wrong with you that must be corrected. Not only that you are going to solve your problem but you are going to trigger out in such a manner that you are going to solve the problems of all the people, all the world.Extracts from: 1990-04/21: Evening before Easter Puja, Eastbourne (UK)
… So, I feel that our vertical ascent is still very slow and we still are lost into the web of maya, of falling into a little subtler pattern of our previous lives. Now we are dead to that life, we are a 
2: “…free people. Nobody has to govern you.”
“(Australians)… are, that way very spiritually good … But certain things are missing in them. One is the social. How they relate to each other. That's rather a missing point. So this is a problem. So in collective they are not so good. Individually they are good. Individuals are very good. But into collective something goes wrong with them.
Also, if you have a leader, so-called (leadership is so-called!) sometimes they become slaves to the leaders. I mean so many things they did, these leaders, horrible things.
None of them reported it. Nobody told me anything. I was shocked! That these leaders are trying to dominate us, they are doing these things they are making money. Nothing! So frightened! Like a jailer and a prisoner's attitude. This is nowhere I find like that.
… Nobody can stop you from telling Me. Unless and until I discovered it nobody told me. So docile! I was shocked. You are free people. Nobody has to govern you. Very much frightened!
… And you must know My Style. I would never say certain things.
