Will yogis en mass ever start doing what they are asked to do?

[Guest guest]

(Email sent by a yogi outlining efforts and response to being honest

and upfront about Shri Mataji and Her message to humanity)

subject: I guess its not gonna change

 

So that was that. Xxxxx wrote back and we agree on many

things. Other yogis though, who are great people and

whom are really close to me and whom i care for very

much are of that same stance that its a tough call to

make with new comers as to who to be upfront with and

who not to be upfront with. I'll cite a response from

a yogini who is a great friend of mine to my response

to Xxxxx :

 

" In terms of how we can bring more people and get SY

to grow, I'm not sure where I stand. Sometimes people

are not ready to hear certain things---like who Shri

Mataji really is---until they've been meditating for a

bit.  Other people are just amazing in that they see

the photo for the first time and know instantly who

She is! So...it's a tough call. Above all, I think

that for newcomers, the most important thing is to get

them to FEEL something. This way, they can't dispute

it with mental arguments. They feel vibrations for

themselves, and this is how it's verifiable. This is

also how it is differentiated from the 1001 other

yogas, etc. out there, you know? They need to

discover for themselves how SY is unique, and

sometimes just telling a person isn't the best way.

Why should they take our word for it, right? Let them

feel it for themselves. Also, only so much of this is

up to us, the rest is up to God. Our main job, I

think, is just to give realization---after that their

Kundalini will work to its own little time table.

It's just been my experience that some yogis, (God

bless them, they're only excited about everything),

come on a little too strong and even 'scare' new

people away. It's best for us just to act as

instruments for vibrations, to show people by example

(our behaviour, our actions, our sweetness), how SY

can change someone for the better. So I think the

main thing is to encourage them and help them to feel

their own vibrations and to feel the state of

meditation. And we can pray about this, pray that we

figure out the best ways to bring people. " (end)

 

 

So i guess my question and my feelings of " i'm just

going to give up trying to talk to yogis about this

upfrontness " . Why are people so opposed to being so

upfront and will yogis en mass ever start doing what

they are asked to do? I feel like i've made these

arguments within my own collective so much and nobody

really cares or agrees with me at all, rather just

says its best to give realization and let God do the

rest or basically anything but be upfront 100 percent

regardless of peoples reactions. Sure people will ask

many questions that may not make for a smooth flowing

meditation class, but that's the point. Its just

frustrating when i see the futility in how things are

done, yet people who can do something about it class

wise and on a larger scale are not stepping up to the

plate to do just that. I honestly have come to the

point where i'm just going to give up on talking to

yogis and yoginis about it and just lead by example

when it comes to giving others realization in my own

encounters. It seems no one wants to listen to things

that it is the best course of action. Why is that? I

don't understand it. Same goes for your website

jagbir. I want people to be aware of the things i have

had the blessings to be aware of because of

your website, and yogis/yogini's just don't care or want

to even go to it, whether they have ever heard of you

or not. Its so frustrating when you want to share but

no one wants to take what your offering.

 

Anyways, when will it change man?

 

Thanks for listening
