Vibrations

[Guest guest]

Dear fellow Yogis

and in particular Dear Tiger,

In a previous post someone commented that the important thing is not

feeling vibrations but actually becoming thoughtless.

Such an important point and often overlooked.

The ability to feel vibrations is related to the quality of the

instrument who is feels them. I have seen a whole collective go off

balance because a clever negative person did an experiment

to " prove " vibrations were imaginary.

Sometimes things which don't seem right feel cool and only years

later the reason why becomes clear to us.

(But mostly things which emmit alarmingly painful vibrations are

definitely better avoided.)

Most collectives seem to have more than enough foolish people in

them but they are there for us to learn from and develop our

discretion and forgiveness. It is hard when you are new and they

seem to keep getting in between yourself and your meditative Self.

My own experience was one of great frustration for years and lots

of prayers to Sri Mataji, sometimes written and left on the altar in

front of Her photo. Or just sitting and talking to Her. She always

hears her children. Living in ashrams always seemed like being a

pebble in a stream with lots of other pebbles all bumping into each

other and becoming smoother.

As time went by most of us who survived realised that we could

choose who to live with, who to spend time with and not struggle so

much. And in amongst the insincere and half-hearted and foolish

people we find real treasures of souls who make it well worth while.

We are actually engaged in the greatest epic humanity has ever

known. A greater battle than any in the Illiad or the Mahabharata.

Sometimes when things are trying it is good to give thanks for

that. That after all Sri Mataji has found us and heard us in our

desperate state and amongst all the millions of souls who have not

yet even heard of Her we are the fortunate ones to recognise Her.

When we were blessed to be able to actually put our hands under

Her Feet and rest our foreheads on them, which is what we still do

now when we namascar, we could feel our being fuse with Hers (it is

not possible to feel any bones in Sri Mataji's Feet. They have the

same firm texture as Lotuses.) And we feel connected to something

which is endless in all directions. When we namascar we surrender

this way. Recognition from the heart and surrender is all you need

to nourish your growth.

For the Mooladhara, sitting on the Mother Earth and saying the

Ganesha Artharva Shirsham out loud is very good. And be sure that

whatever " problems " we have aquired in this lifetime we were

probably born without any from previous good lives so no need to

chastise oneself. Our real Self is the Spirit Eternal.

Jai Sri Mataji
