Lyndal, you are wise and calm

[Guest guest]

Dear Lyndal,

 

Thank you for the beautiful email and will do the needful. i

appreciate the time you have taken to express your views. There is

just one point on which i would like to exchange a few words - a

wise and calm person speaking up and a difficult one keeping quiet

for harmony's sake.

 

It will be obvious that the quiet one will be appreciated and more

welcome. By speaking up it does not mean you are not wise and calm,

which you obviously are. i would prefer someone to tell me with a

straight face my mistakes or that concerning the collective, than

murmuring behind my back. Those who speak up are usually harassed,

even regarded as foolish and agitated. i will be regarded thus by

virtue of being way down the pecking order.

 

But if the same comments are made by a leader or coordinator chances

are they will make less waves. And if Shri Mataji says it then there

will be absolute agreement. That is why Her request that we announce

the Last Judgment is perfectly alright, while my doing so is fraught

with danger. Obviously i cannot be regarded as wise and calm, just

as you cannot for speaking your mind.

 

Dissent is never appreciated by those in power because it exposes

faults and shortcomings. Sahaja Yoga is no different. Only those

intensely dedicated to the cause are able to voice their concerns,

challenging those who are supposed to steer the organization to

greater goals and wider visions. But are these whistleblowers, to

use a derogatory word for self-depreciation, regarded as calm and

wise. No, you and me will never be in the eyes of the empowered. You

will be negative and difficult, even bhootish. It is a very

effective propaganda to nullify their own shortcomings and ostracize

dissenters.

 

But Lyndal take comfort that the Cosmic Goddess will leave no holes

for a false religion to rise after She leaves. Unlike past

incarnations everything is recorded in black and white. All we need

are honest, dedicated and righteous SYs willing to uphold Her cause

with utter disregard for fame or favor ....................... and,

of course, their reputation as unwise and 'uncalm'. Better the

dissenting voice of a single shakti than the false harmony of a

hundred yes men.

 

regards to all,
