Guest guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Shri Mataji must have meant to dedicate to the " inner " SY which is the Divine Mother/Holy Spirit within and not the " outer " SY, which is an external organisation. It follows though that, if an organisation's leaders uphold the " inner " SY, then the " outer " SY will be OK too. But, with an organisation, you cannot hope to use that organisation to try and organise or rule over the Holy Spirit in people's lives. Unfortunately, whenever you make an organisation of 'things spiritual', there always seems to be this human tendency for people to use that organisation, to rule it over others. Shri Mataji did not create Sahaja Yoga organisation, for people to rule it over others. We are in a new era, where, with Kundalini Awakening in people's lives, the Holy Spirit rules..... Dear All, " Sahaja Yoga is only one of My aspects. Leaving everything you have to dedicate. Complete dedication – otherwise you cannot ascend any further. Without questioning, without arguing, complete dedication is the only way you can achieve it. " Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Cheltenham, U.K. 31 July, 1982 The only way that i understand the above that Shri Mataji said at Cheltenham, U.K. is that Shri Mataji must have been differentiating between the " inner SY " which is one's Union with the Divine and the " outer SY " which is an external organisation..... because to me, my " inner SY " is " my Union with the Divine " - which to me, automatically means i have to be dedicated to that Union with my Divine Mother/Holy Spirit Within, without questioning and without argument. Otherwise, i could not ascend any further. But it seems to me, that even in 1982, Shri Mataji was differentiating between what we know today as the " outer SY " , i.e. the present 'WCASY SY' and their 'SYSSR' ----- and the real Sahaja Yoga, i.e. " one's Union with the Divine Within " and complete dedication to the Divine Mother/Holy Spirit within, without questioning and argument. Shri Mataji now wants Sahaja Yogis to become Gurus - checking themselves in groups of 4-5 to make sure that there are no catches and that the Kundalini energy is flowing freely, so they can concentrate on the giving Her Message of Resurrection, not to other Sahaja Yogis in the organisation - but to the world-at-large, which She spoke about clearly in 1982 at Cowley Manor: " As I'm facing you today - you have to face the others; you have to face the people. Dedication doesn't mean that you 'don't talk' of Sahaja Yoga. Many people think that keeping silent is the way you are dedicating. Only in meditation you should be [silent]. But you still have to get out of that [and]... Tell all the nations and tell all the people all over, the great message that the time of Resurrection is here. " Now, at This Time " . And you are all capable of doing it. If somebody tries to sneer at you for that, try to say things with understanding, [with] wisdom... Now, the name of your Mother is very powerful. You know that is the most powerful name, more [so] than all other names - the most powerful mantra. But you must know how to take it. With that complete dedication, you have to take that name! Not like any other name... So be prepared for the second phase. You are in the front. It is very little time I need. But I really need people with steadfast wisdom and dedication. Steadfast. Even for a second, it should not go [from] this side [to] that side. Then we can progress fast; we can go ahead to fight the battle! Perhaps you are aware now, of the subtleties of the negativities, how they use their power to destroy God's work - of course, they are limited - and how you have to be alert, equipped, and dedicated. This, I can only talk to you (about]; I cannot say it to the people who come to Caxton Hall. Some of them are 'half-baked', some of them are absolutely new and naive, and some of them are absolutely 'third rate'. But here, as you are before me today, I want to tell you very frankly, as Krishna has told only to Arjuna: " Sarva dharmanam parityajya, mamekam sharanam Vraja " There is no other way out. 'Vraja' means the one who is 'twice-born', like a solid, solid personality. When you are 'solid', then you must dedicate. When you are 'perfected', then you must dedicate.... All these things are to be understood after realisation, and after maturity. Before that it is not possible. That is why for the last eight years, I did not say these things to you. I was on very patronising [i.e., Shri Mataji is saying that She was being like a patron] and sweet terms with you. And always, I made you feel that you are obliging me. It is no obligation. Beyond all these conceptions you have become your Self, now ready, to be responsible, to be what you are made for. Like the ship is built, is brought to the sea, tried, and found out to be sea-worthy to sail out now, into the sea. So this is the second phase, where you have to sail out, when you know everything about the ship, everything about the sea. With complete freedom and wisdom, you have to sail now. Not afraid of any storms or any gales or any typhoons because now you all know. Your job is to cross through. May God bless you.
