Martin Luther King Day
From the book ‘Meta Modern Era’ by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
“A benevolent ruler, in the form of a philosopher king (as put forward by Socrates), is the ideal person to be the head of government. Such a person must be an extremely wise, detached personality, without any desire for lust, power and money. There have been such persons in the recent past, people like Mahatma Gandhi, Ataturk Kemal Pasa, Anwar al Sadat, Lal Bahadur Shastri, Ho Chi Minh, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, Dag Hammerskjyld, Mujibur Rahman and many others.”
Since 1986, every third Monday of January is observed as Martin Luther King day in the United States. Martin Luther King, Jr. (Jan 15, 1929 – Apr 4, 1968) was an American activist and prominent leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement using nonviolent civil disobedience. He became a national icon in the history of American progressivism. On Oct 14, 1964, Dr. King received the Nobel Peace Prize for combating racial inequality through nonviolence.
Martin Luther King, Jr. was directly influenced by Mahatma Gandhi’s testament to the revolutionary power of non-violence. Dr. King argued that the Gandhian philosophy was ‘‘the only morally and practically sound method open to oppressed people in their struggle for freedom’’.

You Have Everything Within You
“You have everything within you, that power, like you get lifted up. Like a lotus that rises out of the mire by its own force, you come up and your fragrance fills that mire, and you are amazed at it yourself. First you are identified with that mire, and you think that this is what it is – but it’s not so. When it comes up, that lotus, it spreads its beautiful petals, and the fragrance gives us that personality which spreads all over. And that’s what is going to happen to you. All of you are going to be that lotus which looks hidden, which is absolutely invisible within you, which is going to open out, and the fragrance of your divinity is going to spread.”
“Fragrance is something very innate, even this soil, which we should say has or does not have fragrance; the people have fragrance in their character, in their behaviour, in their understanding and there is peace which they are aspiring.” ~ Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi

Death ?! A Myth
One of the main fears in our life is to lose life. I would like to share a post for all those who are dealing with a loss or are facing the last steps. I hope that it brings the same comfort it has brought to me.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi – Lecture on “What are we inside, Birmingham, UK, August 9th, 1980
“You are not to be disappointed my child. The Reality is so beautiful. It is just lying ahead of us. Don’t be worried. Everything is going to be alright…
Death does not exist. There is nothing like death. We are made of five cocoons. One of them is the cocoon of food called as Annamaikosh. That only drops out, and also a little bit of water within us also drops out. The rest of it remains.
Nothing! I wish you could die like that it is just changing of clothes you know. Like when I came from Birmingham I just changed my clothes in the hotel, and came here to be refreshed, to be new.
Just like that as our clothes become dirty we change them, or become old we just change it – that’s all.
Death does not exist. It’s a myth.”
Khalil Gibran
You would know the secret of death.
But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life?
The owl whose night-bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot
But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life?
The owl whose night-bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot
unveil the mystery of light.
If you would indeed behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide
If you would indeed behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide
unto the body of life.
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond;

Make Each Moment Extraordinary
Lord Jesus: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi: “You are already in the kingdom of God, but you have to be like children; how innocent they are, how simple they are and they’re happy with small, small things. They don’t want something very extraordinary. It’s very surprising how our love, which is actually, is enlightened by divine love, can change the whole world.”

The Knowledge of The Roots
“We must reach that state of awareness where we become aware of higher seeking within us. First as a human being we seek food, then protection, house, possessions, money, power – and then we find that all these things even if you have achieved you have not been able to achieve what you wanted – that is the state of joy, and thus you start seeking furthermore to find out what should be that state in which you remain in complete joy.
Many people have no idea as to what to expect and also they are quite naive about the structure or the nature of this tree of life which is built within us. So far with our developments we only know the Knowledge of the Tree, but we have to know the Knowledge of the Roots which sustains this tree. If we do not know that Knowledge, it may be one day this great tree that we see which seems to be quite secure, may completely be destroyed.
So it is important for everyone to have that Knowledge of the Roots within ourselves and within our society, within human beings as a whole.”
