Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 Dear All, I have been told by the local collective facilitator (new name for `leader' in Australia) that the World Council's stance regarding these websites is… " All we have to do is give Self-Realization " … " Jagbir is not a Sahaja Yogi " … and " the World Council do not want Sahaja Yogis to partake of Jagbir's websites " . I would sincerely like to know if it is really true that this is really and truly the World Council's stance on these websites,which are the only ones I can see which reach into the outside world to give the Full Message of Shri Adi Shakti to all " Her Flower Children " which I believe from my understanding of what Shri Mataji has taught us, refers to All Her Children, in the whole wide world… non-Sahaja Yogis as well as yogis. Shri Mataji has told us at her Birthday Puja Talk (Synopsis) on the 21st March 1993 in New Delhi that: - " I hope many people write books. I am sure books can be written by every doctor. Everybody can publish a book with THEIR EXPERIENCES AND THEIR UNDERSTANDING of Sahaj Yoga. IT WILL HELP SAHAJA YOGIES ALSO. All those who have such ideas should make an effort to create new books, some new ideas, new creations. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT, because in these modern times, people want to do something new; something novel. UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES I AM SURE IT WILL WORK OUT. " The above statement of Shri Mataji gives Sahaja Yogis a 'blanket' approval to write honestly and truthfully of our own understanding of the experience of the great gift of Sahaja Yoga that the Divine Mother, the Adi Shakti has given to us, in order to share it with the whole wide world. Everybody needs to know about Shri Mataji's Full Message of the Last Judgment and Resurrection which fulfills what Christ and Mohammed Sahib talked about. Shri Mataji also says that She believes that " under these circumstances it will work out. " No World Council of SY or `facilitator' needs to give Sahaja Yogis permission to publish when this permission has already been granted by Shri Mataji Herself, who has not only given us permission to do so, but actually ASKED us to do so. It really is that simple. However, it does not seem simple to Organization SY. Because I have taken Shri Mataji at Her Word and doing as She has asked, I have been asked to quit these websites (and the order is purported to come from the World Council). When I explained to the facilitator that I am my own guru and I have to do what I believe is right in my own heart and mind, it was made very clear to me that my being my own guru made me an uncomfortable catalyst for 'so-called disruption' within the collective, who already have had to cope with the downgrading of their leaders from being called 'leaders' to now being called 'facilitators'. Facilitators now have a big job on their hands because till now instead of encouraging yogis to be their own gurus, they have made them listen to what they think is right. Surely there is every good reason to change such a negative trend, so yogis can have freedom of speech to express their own understanding of the Divine Message of Sahaja Yoga. This individual expression is the only way that the world will grasp Shri Mataji's Message. I am not a 'follow the leader' type, especially when it goes against everything i have learned from Shri Mataji. Therefore I have said that if it makes the `facilitator' happy I won't attend the collective anymore. I was not asked to leave by him. I volunteered to stay away, so that he could feel that he had more control of the situation. I have subsequently been d from the local collective SY websites when i have done nothing wrong. All i have done is stand up for the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. If doing what Shri Mataji has asked us to do results in such a consequence, then i accept it and am will leave it to the Divine to work out. I am not cut off from the Global Collective, or from Shri Mataji Herself. Shri Mataji has talked about dominating personalities in Sahaja Yoga. This is from the Australian Sahaja Newsletter – 25 April 1998: - " She (Shri Mataji) talked a lot about " dominating personalities " , people who think they are controlling everything and feel responsible all the time… how they hurt and torture others…and specifically about leaders in Sahaja Yoga who think they can tell others what to do and make people afraid of them by saying that Mother has said that and threatening to tell Mother if the people do anything wrong. Shri Mataji said She is never angry with us only sometimes for the " play " . She appears angry but that a Mother can never be angry… She only loves. She said these people who dominate others get some kind of cruel joy from treating others like this. And that some people are always in the front and She knows who they are… that they think they are important and must always be there… but really they are not so really happy people… that is why they do it. She said that animals are aggressive to each other but that they have a hierarchy, a structure… it is not random cruelty… but that human beings can be cruel for no reason. She said some people think that to be a `leader' is to be something… they call Her and ask to be `leader', so what can She do. " (Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Easter Puja, Istanbul 1998) Things have changed now. Facilitators do not now say " Mother has said that you must " … instead they now say … `the World Council have said you must do thus'. So what has really changed? Here are excerpts of a letter written to me from a yogi in a country where they treasure their freedom of speech. This yogi writes… " Dear Violet… It is horrible to know you were pushed to the point where you had to stop visiting your collective. It just cannot fit my mind how that is possible. For me it looks like a thought control that they are concerned with the way you understand things. I don't understand on which right someone tells you whom you can support and whom you cannot. We have a large collective, but I have only two cases on my memory where people were asked to stop visiting sahaj events, and both cases were based on those people's immoral actions towards the collective. There's no way for us to control every sahaja yogi's understanding, and we are not even able to know all the people, and everyone is enjoying, grows in the diversity of understandings, which are there of all kinds. All this is very frustrating and I don't understand this, it shouldn't be like that. I'm sending you a lot of love and my support. Maybe you should take time and write more so that the Truth was uncovered fully in the internet. " Because of the encouragement of this fellow yogi I have been encouraged to do just that.
