Dear All,

 

This also reminds me of yoga or union with the Divine. When we have our 'sahaja

yoga', the 'feminine' qualities are united with the 'masculine' qualities, or

one could say that the 'ying'(female qualities) are united with the 'yang' (male

qualities).

 

A person that has become their " Spirit " has the integration of both and can

exhibit both the male and female qualities. They become whole cnd balanced

within themselves, in their psychosomatic system and this improves the

relationships between human beings.

 

i find it interesting that Shri Mataji would during Shiva Puja, manifest the

qualities of Shiva, and She would even look like Shri Shiva and a person could

feel the Shiva qualities emanating from Her Person.

 

Shri Mataji has said that men need to imbibe the feminine qualties within

themselves, and women need to imbibe the masculine qualities within themselves.

This is the same as saying that the left side or Moon Channel needs to be

balanced with the right side or Sun Channel.

 

The so-called 'battle between the sexes " is actually born of the illusion of

separateness of 'male' and 'female'. The practice of subjugation of women by

men, and dominance of men by women happens when someone believes in this

illusion of 'separateness'.

 

The Truth is that the 'male' and the 'female' are not different from each other,

but are different manifestations of the same reality.

 

As it says in the " Book of Enoch " ...'until a person sees beyond the illusion of

'separateness' of 'male' and 'female', they will not be able to relate in the

proper manner because the Truth is that 'male' and 'female' are not different

from each other...but just different manifestations of the same reality.

 

This understanding of 'male' and 'female' qualities can help our societies by

replacing the ignorance of 'separateness' with the enlightenment of the

essential 'oneness' of Being.

'flame burned around its walls'. Its entrance was also a 'gate of

fire'. Enoch says that when he entered this dwelling, that it was as

hot as fire and as cold as ice.

seat of power...sat two radiant Beings whose robes shone brighter than

the sun and whiter than anything in creation.

trembled at their majesty. He was asked to approach and to hear their

holy word, which he did but he hardly dared to look at them.

each other, but different manifestations of the same reality.
