Long time back, I had a discussion with a TM follower about why they charged so much for people wanting to take up their form of meditation. His reply was, " You cannot take away our economics. " What he meant was that they had to collect funds to maintain their organization and to fund their activities. Recently I had an almost similar kind of discussion, this time with a senior member of the Sahaj hierarchy concerning the justification for collecting royalties to Shri Mataji's talks. It is, of course, fair and justified if one is buying a new CD or tape to pay for it. But what if one is making a copy at home for personal use or for that matter to give to a friend, is it necessary to make a payment of royalty then? Yes, it is necessary to pay a royalty, said my learned friend, otherwise it is not 'auspicious.' Besides we need to collect funds for our activities. That also raised the question whether previous incarnations like Christ, Buddha and Krishna or their followers charged royalty for their teachings. Will we soon also charge 'royalty' for people to get their realization? Or is it that the supposed guardians of Shri Mataji's legacy are using the same you-cannot-take-away-our-economics rationale of TM. Perhaps the newer Sahaja Yogis are unaware of how Shri Mataji spoke so vehemently against TM in the late seventies and early eighties at the initial stage of Her work in the West. She seldom missed any opportunity to criticize or mock TM in those days. There was once when She was talking about God's plan for humanity when She stressed, " God's plan, I tell you, not world plan! " She was obviously referring to TM's so-called " World Plan. " This was one of TM's initiatives for advancement of their aims. Fast forward twenty five years and Sahaja Yoga has its own " World Council, " with parallel aims. One wonders if this is just a coincidence or we are me-tooing TM, only a quarter century late. There was another occasion when, in answer to a question about TM at a public program, She said, " This talk about stress release is all nonsense! " The current generation of Sahaja Yogis in our World Council must have forgotten about Shri Mataji's sharp opinion about " stress release, " the main attraction of TM, otherwise the supposed custodians of Shri Mataji's legacy would not be presenting Sahaja Yoga as a technique for stress management. This is yet another attempt, wittingly or unwittingly, to mimic TM, again a quarter century late. The more senior members of WCASY should be able to recall the early years of Sahaja Yoga in England when Shri Mataji was so totally uncompromising towards TM and then put a stop to this drift towards the TM-ization of Sahaja Yoga. There is a rumor that some of the members of WCASY are ex-TMers, which would explain the apparent influence of TM ideas in WCASY policy. At the current rate could we expect the convergence of Sahaja Yoga and TM sometime soon? Say it isn't so, Arneau. Chandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like a number of key issues, it is the contradictory nature of Sahaja Yoga as taught by management SYs that baffles me. Surely Shri Mataji had no intention of changing Her stand, one that management has done without any opposition from the rest, not that their opinion mattered anyway. i told my wife about this yesterday and asked her why. BTW, she rarely reads the forum or any SY material for that matter. All she wants is to meditate and grow on her own. But i just wanted to know what she thinks about SYs trying the stress management bait to see if a sprinkling of woman's intuition and a dash of common sense is sufficient in finding answers to a patriachal problem. She replied that Shri Mataji never wanted stress management to be used to spread Sahaja Yoga. But over the years SY leaders, after having exhausted other ways, decided to use it anyway. She believes that Shri Mataji may have reluctantly agreed to their persuation after realizing that they were unwilling to make the Divine Message available i.e., tired of asking them to make Her advent public. i tend to believe that is the case as i do not see any reason for Shri Mataji to dilute the message and depreciate Herself in the eyes of the world. This is not a topic that can be discussed with those responsible for an obviously WCASY sanctioned deception. At least we should have answers as to how Her teachings have been corrupted over the last 25 years, all the more while She is still on Earth. regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was made perfectly clear in the Gospels and the Kalki Purana. When He will come, He will neither argue or listen, neither save nor forgive. We should clearly understand one thing: HH Mataji is the Saviour because She is the compassionate One to grant us emancipation before the coming of Shri Kalki. She is the Comforter that Christ has promised. Therefore, all our attention should be on Her, on the Now, and on self-realsation that She grants. Shri Kalki is not to be expected now. We are not ready for Him. He is the beloved and most obedient Son of HH Mataji. He listens to Her and delays His coming because the Divine Mother wants us to get our realisation first. " (Grégoire de Kalbermatten, The Advent) Just wanted to ask them what stress management and Shri Kalki have in common. i just do not have their intelligence or wisdom to figure it on my own. Or is it that when informed that " When He will come, He will neither argue or listen, neither save nor forgive " people will be so agitated and frightened that stress management is a standard prerequisite? i am just guessing and may be wrong as usual. Maybe i will ask my wife when she returns from work. BTW, it has been announced that WCASY is " committed to the notion of collective leadership, selfless service and the maintenance of Sahaja ethics in all of our activities and have adopted two resolutions as " entry gates " for Council membership. " Since my wife, who does not even follow the forum or read SY mail, has been able to give accurate answers and solutions to complex problems besetting Sahaja Yoga i may just ask her to seek the " entry gates " for Council membership. Now where are these entry gates anyway? Darn it, they did not even say " A " , " B " or " C " . Can anyone help me here? regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what maintenence of Sahaja ethics are as if there any rules of ethics we are supposed to be following, I am not sure what they are? I was tought by Shri Matij that I am my own master, I am not guilty, I forgive everyone, and I am a spirit. She tought me how to get self realization and experience of the kundalini. Everything I do, I seek from within myself. The Holy Spirit, Shri matij, Comforter, provide me my ethics. Man cannot give me ethics, an organization cannot give me ethics, nor WCASY cannot give me ethics. No one has told me I have to do this or do that as entry gates for membership of Sahaja Yoga. I hope all this makes sense. Love, Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope > all this makes sense. > > Love, > > Chuck > Dear Chuck, Few SYs know the meaning of " entry gates " or their whereabouts. The term gives the aura of selected souls entering a heavenly dominion ordained by the Divine ........... i mean that is what WCASY wants those aspiring Will-wannabees to think of themselves. i can tell you offhand that women are barred from this Celestial Circle, perhaps due to the impurity of their monthly mensus. That does not mean post-menopause aspirants can apply for membership. i know there will now be an emergency council meeting hastily convened once they read this goof-up, and a sub-clause added to plug this feminine loophole. To be eligible for " entry gates " male applications will need to follow strict rules and have a certain mindset. The main criteria for admittance is that they must have the abilty to lie and be dishonest about Shri Mataji and Her Divine Message. Those with no conscience of being adharmic to humanity are especially coveted. i heard that bonus points are awarded to any murmuring soul who actively spread rumours about the www.adishakti.org websites and forums. Even those who stalk and harrass moderators like Violet will be considered. However this is just hearsay and hopefuls should not crucify me if it is not true. But the rumour is credible because they cannot say so in their entry rules as it would be evidence that they are still carrying out Yogi Mahajan's Inquisytion aginst this family of possessed and demonic children .............. and those who support and believe their witnessing the Shakti in the Sahasrara. Chuck, it is true that " Man cannot give me ethics, an organization cannot give me ethics, nor WCASY cannot give me ethics. " But what ethics can we learn from a bureaucracy that clearly wants those able to influence others to continue lying on its behalf? For me the " entry gates " lead to the death and destruction of the Divine Message to humanity. What has overcome those who now actively encourage management SYs able to influence Her devotees to come forward, openly dangling the carrot of approved membership to their exclusive Inner Circle as a reward?
