Guest guest Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 " Yes, the religious element of Sahaja Yoga is seriously underplayed. Mrs Srivastava formed a new religious movement and proclaimed herself to the the Adi Shakti - the Supreme Goddess. Sahaja Yogis travel across the globe just for the chance to worship her as such, or as one of the other 'deities' (eg Krishna, Christ, etc) which are seen as aspects of her. Sahaja Yoga has always been shy of outwardly proclaiming their true beliefs, and try to draw people in with more palatable presentations of Sahaja Yoga, for example as stress relief. Take for example their corporate training spin-off CEL: http://www.evolutionary-learning.org/html/about_us.html . A concerted effort to hide religious elements, let alone millenarian aspects (Mataji is seen as the Comforter/Holy Ghost/Golden Lady - Mother of the Second Christ/Kalki). This article is much the same - with only a few stray references to the religious element. The one website to openly espouse the Religious/Millenarian aspects - http://www.adishakti.org/ - is relegated to the " Critical Sites " section. Thus, by it's focus on the publicly palatable face of SY, this article points the reader away from what Sahaja Yoga really is. This is great for Sahaja Yoga, but not really the aim of Wikipedia.-- Simon D M 10:40, 26 October 2007 (UTC) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sahaja_Yoga#Beliefs_Section.2FMerge_with_Sahaj\ a_Yoga_meditation Thanks Simon for stating the truth which John Noyce, WCASY, the SY leadership and the vast majority of Shri Mataji's followers have never been able to. Yes, the Sahaja Yoga organization wants to " focus on the publicly palatable face of SY ... away from what Sahaja Yoga really is. " This publicly palatable face of SY at www.sahajayoga.org hardly presents 1% of the Devi. By this i mean that Her incarnation Shri Mataji is the 1%. The remaining 99% is, and will be, presented at www.adishakti.org and its affiliated sites over the years. i am thus honored that http://www.adishakti.org/ has been relegated to the " Critical Sites " by John Noyce, with the backing of WCASY (World Council for the Advancement of Sahaja Yoga). That they failed to remove it from Wikipedia is indeed an insult to the Devi, one that i will never forget for the rest of my life. May She destroy those who try to downplay the Advent and edit the Divine Message of Her incarnation Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. Though you too, Simon, are the Devi's foe i am compelled to thank you for stating the truth that Her devotees are still afraid to declare more than three decades later! regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
