Guest guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 " Let us again remember that the Holy Spirit, as the Primordial Energy, is the Christian mysterious symbol for the Mother. We ought to mention, that in the apocryphal Acts of Saint Thomas, the Holy Spirit is (rightly) invoked as " hidden Mother, " " Mother of all life. " These statements should help us to recognize the true wisdom of the early gnostics and Syrian fathers who grasped something of the identity (Holy Spirit = Mother = Energy.) The esoteric perception certainly casts a new light on the intriguing dialogue between Lord Jesus Christ and Nicodemus: " Truly, Truly, I say to you unless one is born anew, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. Nicodemus said to him, " how can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born? " Jesus answered " Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter the Kingdom of God " — John 3.3 The necessity to return to the Divine Mother in order to become a New Adam, a second born, a Divine Child has been asserted by Lord Jesus. It is time that those western seekers who have engaged themselves in intellectual pursuits use their intellect to discover the Unity of the message of the various mythologies and religions; they had better realize the greatness of the Christian promise and the value of the other world religions. HH Mataji has brilliantly exposed those teachings in a new light which also illuminates the other religious traditions and contemporary science. It is time for us to discover that the true object of Knowledge is integration. All the great religions are one. This is revealed by actualization when our own integration takes place through rebirth. " Grégoire de Kalbermatten, The Advent, The Life Eternal Trust Publishers, 1979, p. 254. Question: How does one discard all the organization and useless activities (of Sahaja Yoga) and seek her (Holy Spirit/Adi Shakti) only in the Sahastrara (Kingdom of God)? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am still unable to rid myself of catches and other chakra problems despite years of daily (Sahaja Yoga) footsoaking and treatments. What do I do now? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am far from a Sahaja Yoga collective. How do I continue practicing Sahaja Yoga? Answer: Silence on Self Question: My collective leader has told me to leave Sahaja Yoga due to some personal problems. What do I do now? Answer: Silence on Self Question: Despite being years in Sahaja Yoga I do not agree with what our leaders are doing. I am thinking of leaving my collective. Can you suggest something that will help me continue on my own? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am a Muslim who absolutely am against worshipping of any idol or image. How then is Sahaja Yoga and Shri Mataji compatible with Islam? Answer: Silence on Self Question: We are devout Christians who are very uncomfortable with Hindu rituals, and see the same in Sahaja Yoga. Is there any way we can do without such rituals? Answer: Silence on Self Question: You loudly claim on your website that all religions and holy scriptures preach the same message. I don't see such evidence. What have you got to say? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I do not want to meditate on anything non-Christian but agree that the Holy Spirit is feminine. How do I only worship the Holy Spirit but not the Adi Shakti? Answer: Silence on Self Question: My parents and husband are against worshipping Shri Mataji. How can I solve this serious family problem but still continue to practice Sahaja Yoga without their knowledge? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I completely agree with your belief that if you have to take a single step in any direction to seek the Divine you are going the wrong way. How and why did you reach this incredible conclusion only now despite spending so many years meditating, checking the scriptures and listening to Shri Mataji's speeches? Answer: Silence on Self Question: How can we spread Shri Mataji's message successfully? So many have failed all these years and Sahaja Yoga is very slow. Most of the seekers have never heard of Shri Mataji. Other than Her Divine Message what can we teach new seekers that will attract them? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I do not want to follow any religious organization or yoga teacher but still am interested in spirituality. You think that is possible? Answer: Silence on Self Question: My mother-in-law is totally against Shri Mataji and regards Her as just another false guru. But I know Shri Mataji is the Adi Shakti and want to continue. However, i do not want to antagonize my mother-in-law. Any suggestions? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am a Sikh. I am completely against any Hindu ritual or worshipping of their idols and gods. Sikhism is completely against such practices. But Sahaja Yoga is also so full of such rituals and gods. What have you got to say, being a Sikh yourself? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am getting somewhat ridiculed for my own spiritual experiences regarding the crown chakra and the divine feminine. People think I'm weird by emphasizing that the Devi is the true nature of brahman and it is creating doubt about my path (despite my own experiences). Should I continue with my meditations and ignore them or try to explain to them? What do you suggest? Answer: Silence on Self Question: There is so much information about yoga and meditation. I am so confused and do not know which path to take. What then is the truth? How do I attain it? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I have been in Sahaja Yoga for years but still do not know what is Self-realization. Can you tell me in detail what you understand by it? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I have been a SY for many years and some of us find shoe- beating and some rituals quite absurd. You also are against them. How then can we solve our subtle system problems without such treatments? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am a Muslim living in Pakistan who want to practice Sahaja Yoga. But there are no centers here. How can I continue? Answer: Silence on Self Question: What will happen after Shri Mataji passes away? Will She still be in the photograph? Where will the vibrations come from then? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I have just started meditating on Shri Mataji in the Sahasrara but find it very difficult. Is there a better way? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I do not want to join Sahaja Yoga but believe in a number of Shri Mataji's teachings. Can you help me? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I am an established SYogini who am concerned at the way the organization is heading. However, I still want to spread Shri Mataji's teachings. What do you suggest I tell others? Answer: Silence on Self Question: I want to practice meditation but find it impossible to stop the thoughts. I value you opinion. If you don't mind my asking, but how do you do it? Answer: Silence on Self Question: What is the shortest and surest route to realize God? Answer: Silence on Self Question: Some religions claim that humans are divine in nature and that liberation is from within. Can you tell me how all this is realized in such a hectic and materialistic world? Answer: Silence on Self Question: As a SY I am concerned that after Shri Mataji takes Mahasamadhi there will great grief and sense of loss. How can I cope with this eventuality and continue my faith and devotion? Do I continue to meditate on Her photo even though She is not physically present anymore? Answer: Silence on Self Question: Jagbir, you are already telling us to discard Shri Mataji's photo and meditate on Her is the Sahasrara. A number of SYs have been offended by this and have left the forum. What makes you so sure you are right? Answer: Silence on Self Question: What is the most profound and deepest enlightenment you have discovered after all these years, based on the teachings of Shri Mataji? She also claims that all religions teach the same truth about the spirit. How is that so given all the religious differences and centuries-old rivalry? Answer: Silence on Self Question: Hi, man-made religions, sects and denominations are wide spread. So much misdeeds and divisions are committed and blood is shed in the name of God and religion. Is there a way to make humans realize that they are all worshipping the One and same Creator, no matter how different religious organizations have made God to be? Answer: Silence on Self Question: It seems that religions are all preaching about a God that is to be found only in their organizations. Why then is it that the Divine can only be realized through one's own experience? What and where is God then?
