Gold has to be tested

"Gold has to be tested. The diamond has to be tested. All that is valuable has to be tested. Without that how can you certify. It's not like going to the church. Somebody puts the water on your head, all right, now you are baptised, finished, now you are chosen. The water will evaporate in no time. And when you will go to God he'll say 'How are you baptised?'  'With water,'    'Where is it. I can't see it.'
So all these things are to be understood in the right perspective.They are for our ascent. For our benevolence. For our higher state. But for that, you must know, we have to fix up our whole will. When people climb, say, Himalayas. What do they do? They take a big nail, nail it at a higher point, then tie up a rope and climb up to that. They don't look down. Then put another nail up there, climb up to that. And that's how they climb Himalayas.
Now what do we do in Sahaja Yoga, we take a nail from the top, put it down there. First day when you get realisation the experience is tremendous. And one by one coming down, the other way round. But as soon as you get realisation, if you are intelligent enough, then you decide 'How should I fix up myself."

Destiny is to become part and parcel of the whole

"Now we have to come to point where you have to see what is our destiny. Sahaja Yogis have their destinies.  Have you fulfilled your destiny?  You have not come to Sahaja Yoga out of some sort of fashion.<...> Destiny is to become part and parcel of the whole.  Have you become part and parcel of the whole?
The collectivity part.  You still are involved, supposedly, into your own problems - I should have said this to my wife, to my children, to my house.  Then you are not part and parcel of the whole.  <...>  It's like one drop of something getting into the ocean. God knows where it has gone.  It has become such a small speck of a stuff that you don't even see, don't even feel it, what it is.  So what one has to understand is that we have to fulfill our destiny and what is our destiny?  Our destiny is to become part and parcel of the whole. <...>
But still if you are worried about this and worried about that then what happens that your progress is stopped, in a way, deterred.  So I would request you not to worry about anything, just think you have to become part and parcel of the whole."
Vishnumaya Puja, 20.08.1988 (Shuddy Camps, England)

The Trinity

"You can see the trinity meets at this point : The Son of God is forgiveness, is the embodiment of forgiveness.  So the God Almighty, who is the Witness, the Mother who is the Compassion and the Child who is the forgiveness, all of them meet at the heart chakra in the Sahasrara."
Maha Sahasrara Day Puja 5.05.1984 (Rouen , France)

You have to use your vibrations

"Why should God give you vibrations, if you are not going to use it? Simple logic. Why should God give you light, if you are not going to use it. Christ has said that you don't put light under a measure. That's what you are doing when we are not using our hands, our feet, our brains for Sahaja Yoga. We are not creating vibrations within ourselves. The same body which is yours can just become a bundle of vibrations if you start using these vibrations. But if you don't use these vibrations, you'll have problems and problems all the time and you will not understand why "I am doing everything, I am doing this" because you are not using your vibrations. You have to use your vibrations in every way possible, wherever is possible to help others to get all right, to get well."
Shri Lakshmi Puja, 29.11.1991 (Alibag, India)

Practice compassion and love

"We talk of compassion, compassion. Now, let us see how we can practise our compassion when this boy is so sick. On the contrary, everybody was harsh on him, were passing remarks at him, doing things like that. Because we have to have compassion. Now Mother has said we have to have compassion. Now where do you have our compassion? On the walls? Where do we use our compassion? Where do we use our compassion?
So Sahaja Yoga is to be practised, doesn't mean that you sit down with My photograph all the time. Doesn't mean that. It means you practise compassion. You practise that. Then you have to practise love. Now how do you practise love with others? If you love someone, what do you do? You try to please that person. Small things can make people very happy. I know you all try to please Me very much. You'll give Me presents. You'll find out things which are good for Me. You'll go out of the way, buy sweet flowers for Me. Beautiful things you do to please Me. I am over-pleased, I must tell you. But I'm more pleased, much more pleased if you understand collectivity and try to please each other. Such a person pleases Me the most, that the attention is more on pleasing each other."
Virata Puja, 10.04.91 (Melbourne, Australia)

If collectivity is not established Sahaja Yoga will die out

"Those who have come to Sahasrara have to understand that collectivity is the basic of your ascent. If you are not collective, if you do not come to the centre, if you do not meet each other, then you are like a nail which is cut out of the finger and the Divine has nothing to do with you. You're out of the tree. Like the flowers which have come out of the tree can exist for a while, not doubt, but after some time, they are dead and finished.
So it is important for all of you to understand that collectivity, if it is not established in Sahaja Yoga, Sahaj Yog will die out."
Virata Puja, 10.04.91 (Melbourne, Australia)

Learn to be one

"So we must learn to be one. If after Sahaja Yoga, after your Realization, if you do not understand this message that we all have to be one, one single unit, one single body; if we cannot be, if you are identified with other things, then it’s no way you have grown, you have not matured."
Sahasrara Puja 09.05.1998 (Cabella Ligure, Italy)

Значение целомудрия

"Негатив, находящийся внутри нас, исчезает под воздействием света Шри Ганеши. Вы можете так ясно видеть это в другом человеке. Если у вас нет целомудрия, тогда вы никогда не сможете различить, кто является целомудренным, а кто нет. Не сможете. Для вас все тогда одинаковы: "Очень хороший, очень хороший, очень приятный, очень приятный человек". Я хочу сказать, что действительно одержимых людей вы считаете очень хорошими людьми. Такое иногда происходит и в Сахаджа Йоге и Я начинаю задумываться о том, что же происходит? Что это? Как можно говорить так об этих людях? Разве они не чувствуют этого? Значит, нет света. Даже если вы получили свою реализацию, даже если ваш Дух вырабатывает ваше коллективное сознание, даже если вы даете самореализацию другим людям, вы не продвинулись никуда, если у вас нет целомудрия. Это подобно разбитому стеклу, которое пытается отразить что-то, но оно никогда не может дать правильной картины. Оно столь важно."
Пуджа Шри Ганеше, 4.08.1985 (Брайтон, Англия)

The capacity of enjoyment

The capacity of enjoyment only comes when your Sahasrara is absolutely open, otherwise the capacity to enjoy is much less and you become like a person who’s running all the time after something which you never achieve. There are many like that. All their life they’re like mad, you know. They’re working morning till evening, every day, achieving nothing, next day again get up, again running, all their life running like this till their foot is in the grave, they’re still running. But after getting to Sahaja Yoga, you stop all these activities and leave it to your Sahasrara to work it out. And it works out. You don't have to rush. You don't have to be so competent. You don't have to write down everything. You don't have to think of planning everything. Just everything works out and it works out beautifully. The only thing that one has to do is to accept whatever is happening for our good. Even in small, small things.
Sahasrara Day Puja, 9.05.1993 (Cabella Italy)

Absolute Joy - Nirananda

You have all kinds of joys, as I told you before, you have Swananda - the joy of Spirit. Theb you have gor Brahmananda - the joy of well-being. You've got Leelananda, Krishnananda - where you have the joy of play. But when you reach the state of Sahasrara it is Nirananda - means, sheer absolute joy <...> And when you at thet state of absolute then there is no place for anything else to be there but your Self.
The Joy of the Absolute, 05.05.1985 (Vienna, Austria)
