The Way to Self-Realisation – the Knowledge of the Spirit
Jesus Christ was the greatest example of all history to show us how to forgive. He who had nothing but love and forgiveness, who went all over the places to talk to people about love, to lift them up and to heal them – when he was answered with anger and aggression and was even tortured and crucified, he still had nothing but love and forgiveness.
Nowadays we see anger and aggression on the rise everywhere. Maybe this is a good time to remember Him. To be inspired by this amazing personality. To follow such a bright light of love and compassion. How much can we forgive? How much can we follow this ideal man? At the end, what will happen to us if we forgive? Forgiveness brings deep peace.
Because once you forgive them, you don’t remember what they have done to you, and you never torture yourself. But if you don’t forgive, then you torture yourself thinking, “Why did he do this? Why did she do this?” Nothing – you just forgive. The very great present of Jesus was that you should forgive everyone. That gives you a great peace here.

“Yoga’s are meant for very, very few people. For very few people who live with a guru, in the jungles. You have to do six things simultaneously under the guidance of an evolved soul.
But everybody is trying to do yoga because they want to slim down. God is not to be used for these frivolous things. All right, you do exercises. But this is not yoga.
Yoga means ‘union with God’. It is union with God. It is not union with the worldly things that you think so important.”
Shri Mataji, 1976-0319
Join our meditation classes and experience the true meaning of Yoga!
When you start feeling the deep connection that you have with the Divine the first sign is deep peace.
Then, eventually, you will start feeling cool vibrations (a cool breeze or wind) in your hands and over the head. This is the sign that your own Kundalini is manifesting and flowing through your system, nourishing, cleansing and healing.
With these vibrations you will be able to know for yourself what is good for you and what not. Whoever or whatever emits cool vibrations is in oneness with the whole. Therefore, when we start with Sahaja Yoga Meditation we feel a lot of warmth coming out of the head and hands because we have not lived in harmony with the Divine; not even in harmony with ourselves.
If we make it a daily practice to meditate and use the simple clearing techniques to heal our chakras everything in our life starts to fall into place. We do not need to make an effort to grow from the seed that has been planted through the Kundalini Awakening into a tree rich with fruits. We only have to water this seed by our daily meditation then the rest will happen by itself.
The more we find balance inside the more we start feeling the joy. Not the happiness that can turn into unhappiness at any time but the Joy that has no duality. That just is. For no reason. Pure Joy.

“Gandhi Ji said that all religions are equal, means the tattwa (essence, principle) of all the religions is the same.
You should understand this. The energy which flows inside the tree goes everywhere, it goes into the roots, in the trunk, into the leaves, flowers and then it goes back. It does not get attached to any place.
This type of love which is unconditional, which is detached, is a power. In that power, a principle is working out everywhere, the same way.
One principle is working out in every religion.
And that, to the point, the simple principle is just that, when Dharmà (the righteous way of living) gets manifested within ourselves, when we get nourished by the principle of any dharmà, when we fully establish the tattwa within ourselves, then we can get our evolution.”
Shri Mataji, 1978-0203, Translated from Hindi
“I laugh within myself when someone objects that Rama or the chanting of Ramanama is for the Hindus only, how can Muslims therefore take part in it?
Is there one God for the Muslims and another for the Hindus, Paris or Christians?
No, there is only one omnipotent and omnipresent God. He is named variously and we remember Him by the name which is most familiar to us.
My Rama, the Rama of our prayers is not the historical Rama, the son Dasharatha, the King of Ayodhya. He is the eternal, the unborn, the one without a second. Him alone I worship. His aid alone I see, and so should you. He belongs equally to all.
I, therefore, see no reason why a Muslim or anybody should object to taking His name. But he is in no way bound to recognize God as Ramanama. He may utter to himself Allah or Khuda so as not to mar the harmony of the sound.”
(Mahatma Gandhi*, 28-4-1946, p111)

“But at this point, man’s foolishness also comes into play in that he saves his time to waste it elsewhere. If he thinks even for an instant, “This time that I am saving, where have I to use it?” he comes into balance.
To obtain that torrential rain of God falling on the people of this Kali Yuga (Dark Age), only a little balance is required.”
Shri Mataji, 1975-1222
“I sometimes feel like that. Is man’s search for truth or untruth? Why is a man in love with untruth? However, if you look at it, no one likes the untruth. If I tell a lie to you, will you like Me?
But if a man tries to search at the micro-level, he pays great attention to the matter and dead things and he is sad, he is a sad person, the whole world is sad. What can we do to these fools?
They are sad for no reason. It is like this; your lamp is embellished, decorated. You also light a beautiful lamp with a wick. You decorate the rest also. You light the lamp, still you are unhappy, you are in darkness.”
Shri Mataji, 1974-0325
