Mahatma Gandhi's Talisman

[Guest guest]

I just rediscovered something that is present in the text books of

Indian schools but is almost always ignored. Its Gandhi's Talisman.

Its as follows

 

" Whenever your doubts or your ego starts overwhelming you, try this.

Imagine the face of the poorest man you ever saw and ask yourself

this: How is the step I am going to take next going to affect this

man. Can it better his life? In other words can it bring prosperity

and freedom to world's poor and hungry? You will find your doubts and

your ego melting away. "

 

Of course Gandhiji gave this talisman in the turbulent times when

India was striving for independence but still is relevant and more so

particulary for Sahaja Yogis in forcing us to look at the big

picture. Rather than strive to make our chakras perfect( and in the

process think of ourseleves as Chakras expert), I think we should try

to enlighten our consciousness (which is much more difficult). Shri

Mataji herself said in her lecture that we are not even these

chakras. We are the spirit. May we be blessed to be that!

 

Jai Shri Mataji
