New life needed in a local collective.......

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

i received this email from a SY: -

 

" I also want to say that our ashram is having severe money problems to the point

of having meetings about how to solve the problems. They don't want to sell it

because Shri Mataji actually went there and chose it herself and from what i

understand with her own money. Anyways, i was appalled at the fact that during

the meeting as they were trying to figure out a way to get more income to

support the mortgage etc/donations, that they were discussing/even considering

the idea of new seekers. Someone brought up the idea of /bringing notice to the

fact that they were doing programs, this and that, and that it may benefit us

that way. Basically what i am saying is it was brought up that we should be

giving more programs to get more seekers to come to the ashram, thus support it

with donations; i.e more income by attracting more seekers to SY. This made me a

lil disgusted that even the idea of giving self realization and programs in

order to get more people into the ashram to solve money problems was even

brought up. They counted that out simply because they said it takes time for

seekers to germinate and grow and the financial problem is immediate.

 

I wanted to stand up and say something to everyone about how horrible an idea

like that was because Self realization should be given because it is our duty,

their destiny to have that connection and take part in the last judgement, and

not for some ulterior motive of any sort, especially of a financial sort. I

didn't because i felt i hadn't been there long enough to say anything like that,

even if the idea never made it to the design stage, but something in me really

sounded the alarm that there was something very wrong about that idea. i even

talked to a fellow yuva (even though I'm a lil old to be a yuva and so is he)

and he said he never even looked at it that way before or saw it that way.

 

How do i know when is the right time to speak and when is not? I mean when can

one react and stand up and just speak from emotions and when should one hold

their tongue? "

 

Dear Yogi,

 

It really saddens me when i hear stories like this. There needs to be new

spiritual influx into such a collective as you describe. Collectives are

definitely suffering when they have to listen to management that do not support

the Gnostic Truth of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, and instead make it into a Subtle

System Program mainly.

Therefore, the spiritual perspective and the spiritual joy are lost, and new

people are seen in terms of giving support to an organization, rather than what

Shri Mataji envisioned.

 

You can speak up, and do what you think to do in your heart. Maybe, you can

mention that maybe telling the Message of Shri Mataji about the Last Judgment

and Resurrection must be told in words that new people can understand. i can

only advise you to meditate, introspect, and stay centred in the Silence of the

Divine Within, and when you feel lead to speak up, do that.

 

Each person must go within and be a channel for the Divine. That is the

responsibility of every one of us, who want to help at this Special Time. And

the Message of the Last Judgement and Resurrection is a positive message, one

that seekers want to hear. The best way for them to hear, is for us to tell of

our experience, which is our Gnostic Truth. It is that simple.

 

It really sounds like your collective could do with new spiritual vision; with a

spiritual awakening from within. Maybe, they could learn through all these

problems, to finally turn to their Spiritual Mother Within themselves. To forget

about the " Will Wannabees " who do not practice what they preach, and who are not

helping anyone at all, in fact, doing the opposite.

 

While these " Will Wannabees " are listened to, i don't know how collectives will

go forward spiritually. That is the sad thing about it all. Unless of course,

they 'wake up' to what is really happening, and decide to become their own

masters, their own gurus, and not listen to man, but to the Adi Shakti from

within themselves.

 

love and best wishes,
