Guest guest Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Dear All, We concluded Part 3 with the following: " The Himalayas is also like a Sahasrara where the Kundalini has risen. Where the vibrations have come out. And in the sky you can see the vibrations. But this Himalayas is ruled by a wrathful God called Shiva. That's the dangerous part of it. So we have to be very, very careful. If we try to play around, if we try to take to hatred among ourselves, take to divisive methods, take to something that is not Sahaja, this wrathful god is sitting on our head. He is also in Mecca. This is Maheshwarshiv [1] there. If you try to misbehave, he comes out with his wrathfulness. Anywhere you are, you have to be very careful that this Shiva is everywhere. Like one of these lingas of Shiva [2] is in Bellignat, that is in Maharashtra. Allag Dur [3]. As their people [in Maharashtra] started another kind of Sahaja Yoga. Also, they were drinking on the day of the Shri Ganesha's chaturthi [4], so the wrath of Shiva lingam came and there was such a big, huge earthquake. And many people were lost. But none of the Sahaja Yogis [were lost] and their centre was saved completely. Now we had a big fire also, as you know--last time--and nothing happened to you; you are under protection. You are all the time protected. There was no wrath of Shiva that could work out anything. Fire could not do anything to you, because you are under protection. But this protection is your Mother's Love--is not anything else but the Love of your Mother, which is very powerful and which is protecting you and helping you. In the same way you develop that kind of love for others, for other Sahaja Yogis, for other people, for other things, for this mother Earth, for all that. Your love can not only protect you, but protect others also! " Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Sahasrara Puja, Cabella, Italy - 04/05/97 Notes: [1] About the name Maheshwarshiv: " The name Maheshwar comes from Mahesh, a name for Lord Shiva. The word Maheshwar in Hindi means abode of Lord Mahesh. " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maheshwar [2] About, what is a linga of Shiva? (Here is a result from Wikipedia which should help): " Apart from anthropomorphic images of Shiva, the worship of Shiva in the form of a lingam or linga is also important.[39][154][155] These are depicted in various forms. One common form is the shape of a vertical rounded column. Shiva means auspiciousness and linga means " genital " , a sign or a symbol. Hence the Shivalinga is regarded as a " symbol of the great God of the universe who is all-auspiciousness. " [156] Shiva also means one in whom the whole creation sleeps after dissolution.[156] Linga also means the same thing--a place where created objects get dissolved during the disintegration of the created universe. Since, according to Hinduism, it is the same god that creates, sustains and withdraws the universe, the Shivalinga, represents symbolically God Himself.[156] Some scholars, like Monier-Williams and Wendy Doniger also view linga as a phallic symbol,[157][158] although this interpretation is disputed by others including Christopher Isherwood,[159] Vivekananda,[160] Swami Sivananda,[161] and S.N.Balagangadhara.[162] " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva#Lingam [3] About the words 'Allag Dur': Shri Mataji mentions two words above which are: 'Allag Dur'. All Google results point to this being an Islamic term. 'Allag Dur' is very close to 'Allah Dur'. Shri Mataji mentions in relation to Shiva that " He is also in Mecca " . Therefore 'Allag Dur' may be relating to Lord Shiva in Mecca. [4] About, what does 'Ganesha chaturthi' mean? (Here is a result from Wikipedia which should help): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganesh_Chaturthi Here now, is Part 4. Enjoy, violet The Truth which is beyond Dharma - Part 4 Your attention, as long as it is on yourself, will start becoming smaller and smaller: 'I should have this', 'I should have that', 'I like this', 'I like that'; all these topics will fall [around]. You will never say: 'I like this', no question. What do I like? It's difficult for Me to decide if I like anything. 'This' I like, 'that' I like. I like to be this way. Who are you? Ask yourself the question. Who are you? If you are the pure spirit, it is nothing but Love. And in Love you think of others, the problems of others; you try to make others comfortable. You try to look after others and you don't just look after yourself and bother about yourself. This is what you have to reach. Though you may be dharmic, you may be in every way Sahaja, but still, unless and until you reach that state in your Sahasrara, I wouldn't say that you are all right. You have to work it out. For that, of course meditation is very important, but the thing that stops it is your mind--is your mind that goes on telling you. All the time you watch your mind and how it tries to guide you, how it tries to tell you: 'Now what about me?', 'What about my house?' 'What about my children?' 'What about my country?'--Like that you go on, 'My, my, my, my, my'... Ultimately, you end up into nothing. But when you say: 'You, you, you'..., Kabira has said a beautiful thing about it. He says that when the goat is living, it is saying: 'maeh, maeh, maeh'--means 'I, I, I'... but [when] it dies, then they take out the intestines and put it on a dhunki; they put it for the cleaning of the cotton and [at] that time what does this dhunki say: 'tuhi, tuhi, tuhi'---'You are the one, you are, you are, you are'... And that goes all over. In the same way you have to think from others' point of view. First of all 'tuhi' when you say [it], [you] say it to your Guru or to God that 'You are, I'm no more, I'm dissolved, I'm finished, I have become One with this Ocean of Love'... and then you [can] say to others: 'You are, you are'! That is Sahaja culture. See, so [that way] lots of falsehood will fall away, falsehood that surrenders you and others. Like, people try falsehood by saying something [like]: 'I love you very much' and on the back they plan something very bad. They can do anything. [They're] not Sahaja Yogis. They don't do it. I must say that they have reached that state where they don't do it. But still, if they don't do it, they are conscious of it. All the time they are conscious: 'We don't do this', 'We don't drink'. So what? 'We don't fuss about food'. I mean, all these things they have achieved. They are very proud of it, you see, very proud. That 'we are like this', 'we are like that'. You see, because you are the pure Spirit, because you are 'That'--so you have 'become That'. How can you take pride in something what you are? It's like somebody asked Me: " Don't you feel very proud that you are Adi Shakti? " I said: " What? " I couldn't understand the question. I said, " See now, if I'm Adi Shakti, what is there to be proud? " --because I am that, what is there to be proud? " If I was not that, then I would be proud of it, but I was [that]. So, what is there to be proud of? Like the sun, you see, it shines--[and] is not proud that 'I am the sun'. Or, if you are born say, with your eyes and nose, a face like a human being, you are not proud [that]: 'I am a human being, I am a human being'-- are you proud? In the same way, if you are that what you are, you are not proud; you are not conscious about it. Not at all conscious [about it]. I mean, I never tell myself 'I am Adi Shakti'. There is no need to tell, but it is so---[so] what to do? Now, God has chosen me, I should say, to be the Adi Shakti. All right, I can have it. But I just don't know what is there, as if like some people think that Sahaja Yoga has been bestowed upon them like some Lordship or something like that. It is what you become. It is what you have become. When you 'become', one must understand that you have 'become that'! Like, supposing a stone becomes gold. Then it is gold. It won't be proud that 'I am gold'. Gold is gold! Why will it be proud of that? In the same way, this consciousness of being a Sahaja Yogi drops out. Still it lingers, so one has to be careful that once you are a Sahaja Yogi, you are a Sahaja Yogi--so what? 'I'm a Sahaja Yogi'--so what? [it's] nothing so great. It's like saying that I have a nose, you see--to be proud of to say [that] " I have a nose " you see. What is there, a nose is already there--what is there to be proud of. But this pride has to go. That's very important to realize that: 'I'm not there, I am no more, I am One with the Whole, become the Ocean, this drop of mine. I don't know if there are any boundaries left in me'.......This kind of consciousness develops in you, when your consciousness is filled with Joy only. Just with Joy and bubbling with Love. Bubbling with Love. You go on, you see, expressing your Love whether you talk or you don't talk, whether you say about it or you don't, whether you are smiling or not. This Joy is in your heart.
