Shri Mataji: You have to become Lord of yourself.

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Shri Mataji revealed that in Sahaja Yoga there are many people, who have become

leaders, because they have insisted to Her, that they become leaders, so they

can dominate people. Shri Mataji gives the beautiful image of Christ to us, whom

She says, rose above all that. She says that in the same way, we must also rise

above nonsensical ideas, and negative thoughts also.

 

[This has been written in the English way, but the meaning that Shri Mataji

gave, has been retained.]

Shri Mataji: " You have to become Lord of yourself! "

 

" But I have seen in Sahaja Yoga, many people, you make them a leader, finished!

Then, he sits on everybody's head! If you don't make them a leader, then they go

on writing letters to Me, one after another, that: " Mother, we want to be

leader, I want to be a leader. Like this they go on insisting. For what do you

want to be a leader? Just to dominate others? And this domination business is

not meant for Sahaja Yogis! "

 

I'm here today to tell you about a beautiful image of Christ who rose above that

[domination]. In the same way, we must allow for the death of all nonsensical

ideas, negative thoughts, and everything like that, which has to be overcome.

You have to be the Lord of yourself and in [being] that, you should feel so

comforted, so happy!!! In giving to others you'll find it very much easier, than

in taking something from others.

 

It's very surprising how Sahaja Yoga has taught you all these things. In Sahaja

Yoga people have to be able to say [about you] that they [sahaja Yogis] are very

wonderful, beautiful, loving and kind people! I want to hear that all the time

about all of you, that you are individually or collectively, something

outstandingly great!!!

 

But this greatness is not by domination or by showing off, but it comes from

within, so that when people see you, they will know it is something special that

you have! That is how Sahaja Yoga is going to spread. It's the Christ within

you, who has to arise to guide and teach you how to behave towards others, how

to gain their confidence, and give them the love and peace you have flowing

within you, so that they also may become happy and joyous people. This is the

Message of the Resurrection, the Message of the breaking of the Sahasrara!!! "
