Guest guest Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Dear All, For World Peace, Shri Mataji says that " any Democracy should not allow an exclusive religion to be the basis of State " , and She gives us these ideals to implement them in our lives in whatever way we can. After all, Sahaja Yoga is the essence of all religions and excludes none, and the Kingdom of God is here, now, and those who are not wanting it, according to Shri Mataji, " will be just dropped down " and She says that, " I must warn you " : " When we think of God, also we think He is lower than us. So we can use Him. You cannot push people into it. Only those who will be allowed by God will be there. It's the other way round, we must understand this. This is what we miss: " That if we want we can push as many number as possible. We can get so many people to God " -- is a very, very wrong idea. You 'cannot' force God. He's not under you. You have to take His graciousness with prayer, with great asking, and 'then' you can save these people. He's not interested. He can create many more. So those who are not wanting, you should not try to sell. You cannot sell Sahaja Yoga. You may think that more quantity is a sign of credibility. -- Not with God. So many will be just dropped down, I must warn you. " Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Formal Talk, Sahaja Temple, Delhi, India - 8 February, 1983. It doesn't seem fair that so many people " will be just dropped down " as Shri Mataji describes it. But apparently, we have all had many, many lifetimes to become 'the wheat' instead of 'the chaff'. And the Harvest Time is now here, when the good wheat is being gathered in to preserve it, while the chaff gets recycled for another Harvest Time, many millenniums away. It seems to be part of the cycle of nature, that this is happening, and there is nothing we can do about it, but become the Spirit/Higher Self. Surprisingly, it looks like the destructive forces are playing a major part in the wheat and the chaff becoming separated from each other. What i mean is there seems to be no more of this 'standing on the fence' of indecision allowed any more; either a person goes with the spiritual flow, or against the spiritual flow. If they go with the spiritual flow they are preserved. If they go against the spiritual flow, they cannot help but become subject to these destructive forces, or so it would seem. Those who become their Spirit/Higher Self can join the flow of the Holy Spirit and be part and parcel of the ushering in of the Age of Truth, the Satya Yuga, which is happening even now. We are in the birthing of this New Age, and that is why things seem so intense at the moment, as it is necessarily an intense process. Here now, is Part 1 of 'The truth that ushers in the Satya Yuga'. violet The truth that ushers in the Satya Yuga - Part 1 Now, one has to understand that any Democracy should not allow an exclusive religion to be the basis of the State. Religion is a personal matter and every human being should have the right in each and every country to follow the religion of his or her free choice. Single religion States are an anachronism in the present age. When a country is declared as Islamic or Christian or Jewish, the followers of that one particular religion become superior citizens and others have an inferior status. This is totally contrary to the accepted concept of equality in a true 'democracy'. These exclusive religions are absolutely blind-faith oriented. People believing in them follow their religious injunctions blindly and divide themselves into antagonistic groups. In England now some Church leaders have proclaimed that all kinds of people who are supposed to be living in sin according to the Christian religion can attend and join the Church. They have done so because attendance at the churches is very thin, and they want to attract larger congregations, even by diluting and downgrading religious and moral values. The number of practising Christians has decreased sharply, to the extent that they cannot run their Churches, nor pay their Clergies properly. So they have put this big liberal project before the public as a report. They say that if people have got genes of the wrong kind how can they help it? This is now an open invitation to immorality and getting away with it by blaming it on one's genes. This is also a very dangerous postulate, because it suggests that inherited genes determine the character of a person, which cannot be improved by education or religion or spirituality. The truth is that the characteristics of inherited genes can be altered. It has to be understood that we can change our genes all the time. For example, after transformation through Sahaja Yoga, the peoples' genes get restructured and they become righteous, loving and powerful people. This shows that the genes absorb impressions from our day-to-day life. Also we see every day that all the children of the same parents do not have the same nature or characteristics. One child of the same father and mother may be brilliant and angelic. The other may be stupid and devilish. It can be seen very clearly also that if genes are what we have inherited then there is no need to have a church, nor is there a need to have any congregation. But one must know that if our churches had done a sincere job, the genes of the Christians would have changed as they have changed in Sahaja Yoga, where Jews worship Christ and Muslims worship Shiva. So people are fighting in the name of God and there is no World Peace. Behind all these activities there is also powerful money orientation and when it comes to economics, the people of the highest order in a religion succumb to compromise, however immoral it may be. They have neither character nor courage nor real faith to resist fashionable trends. In fact they allow their followers to swim with the evil currents of the day and thus lead them into hell from where there is no return. These religions inject fixed ideas into the brains of people. These fixed ideas start developing in a collective way and this can produce a very big, collective monster which can believe only in killing others and pushing its own ideas.
