Guest guest Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Dear All, Ideally it would be preferable to divide this detailed Divine Feminine introduction into several smaller parts, but if this is impossible, one simply does one's best within the time parameters given. What follows may be considered as an initial guideline for those who are beginning to embark on speaking about Shri Mataji's complete message in a formal group setting. Be encouraged to modify suggestions as necessary, for optimum effect, always geared towards the deeper understanding of those seeking the Truth. Prior to introducing the Divine Feminine/Adi Shakti/Kingdom of God/Sahaja Yoga to any formal group setting, I would say that it's advisable to have given Shri Mataji's full message and Self-Realization to individuals, small spontaneous, informal groups first, since speaking within a less formal context gives one the opportunity to gain the necessary experience to speak clearly and knowledgeably on the topic as well as feeling comfortable and confident in the process of giving Self-Realization to others. In a classroom setting I keep things simple: a picture of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, large subtle system chart which clarifies 'Tree of Life' within, Kundalini, Sahasrara, Spirit, tape recorder for SR tape, (or simply doing this SR exercise myself), pamphlets with adishakti.org URLs, and perhaps a picture of Kuan Yin/Athena and so on, containing symbols reflective of the Adi Shakti/Holy Spirit. Addressing the topic of Self-Realization and full disclosure of the identity of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi and Her message of the Blossom Time/Resurrection/Last Judgment also involves some basic knowledge of other faiths in order to be able to speak, to some degree at least, the language of other faiths. The Religions Chart and info at the bottom are of value here. One can expect also to be involved, to some extent, in responding to participants' diverse questions or opinions. Speaking to a group is more of a spontaneous rather than a static experience and concepts will not necessarily follow the same predictable pattern, but overall I try to have the group understand some vital umbrella concepts and inherent points within those concepts. This was the reason for the development of the Religions Chart. It's easier for new seekers to see the pieces of the religious puzzle coming together to give a deeper understanding of the messages being presented and more importantly it gives, in Jagbir's wise words, " a panaramic view of the Blossom Time. " A)Some possible concepts to present in a more formal group situation: 1)The connecting thread of all human beings is the presence of the Kundalini (Mother) within. 2)We must become connected to the Power that created us. It is the Kundalini (Mother) Who gives us our spiritual connection, called as -Second Birth. 3)The Religions on the Tree of Life are One. 4)The Kingdom of God is found WITHIN! -see HEAVEN WITHIN below -The main religions within us on the Tree of Life,(subtle system)are absolute Truth. These religions concur with each other. 5)the goal in life is to achieve our Second Birth, to become the Spirit, to enter into the Kingdom of God. B)Introduction to Divine Feminine/Sahaja Yoga: -It may be to say something personal about one's own search for the meaning in life, possibly a personal spiritual experience as a segue into introducing Shri Mataji/ Sahaja Yoga. -It may be an introduction, for example, to a song that is in the consciousness of many people, one which connects with and also provides the lead-in to Sahaja Yoga, such as - " This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius " from the 1960's, since 'Aquarius' is the same as 'Sahaja Yoga'... -It may be asking the audience to listen to some quotes from different religions in order to ascertain the common theme of these quotes, as for example: (HEAVEN IS WITHIN) The Kingdom of God cometh not with observation: neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for behold, the Kingdom of God is within you. Christianity What the undeveloped man seeks is outside, what the advanced man seeks is within himself. Confucianism If you think the Law is outside yourself, you are embracing not the absolute Law but some inferior teaching. Buddhism God bides hidden in the hearts of all. Hinduism Why wilt thou go into the jungles? What do you hope to find there? Even as the scent dwells within the flower, so God within thine own heart ever abides. Seek Him with earnestness and find Him there. Sikhism OR (MAN IS CREATED IN GOD'S IMAGE) God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him. Judaism The individual soul is nothing else in essence than universal soul. Hinduism On God's own nature has been molded man's. Islam God is concealed in every heart, His light is in every heart. Sikhism Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you. Christianity OR (KNOW THY SELF) SOCRATES(great for Philosophy classes) First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye. Christianity He who knows others is discerning; he who knows himself is wise. Taoism The faults of others we see easily, our own are very difficult to see. Our neighbour's faults we winnow eagerly as chaff from grain, our own we hide away as a cheat hides a losing roll of the dice. Buddhism They who quarrel with others,instead of quarreling with their own hearts, waste their lives. Sikhism If you love others, and affection is not reurned, look into your love. if you rule others, and they are unruly, look into your own wisdom. If you treat others politely and they do not return your politeness, look into your respect. If your desires are not fulfilled, turn inward and examine yourself. Confucianism Reference: Oneness - Great Principles shared by all Religions - by Jeffrey Moss C)Visual Aids: 1)-The Religions Chart is a valuable aid here since one can see how the religions all speak of 1)the Divine Feminine (Mother Within) 2)Union with the Divine 3)Kingdom of God 4)Age 5)Subtle System 6)Eschatological evidence or proof of Self-Realization (Second Birth) 2)-Subtle system chart Because it facilitates the understanding of the concept of the Tree of Life (subtle system) and the visual location of unfamiliar terminology such as Kundalini/Holy Spirit/Ruh/Ruach, Kingdom of God/Sahasrara - meditation is the state of being fully alert and 'thoughtlessly aware', the joyful state in which we grow spiritually - Self/Spirit, Shri Jesus Christ/Agnya Chakra (narrow gate, the door, the way to the Kingdom of God), Void/Ocean of Illusion (Primordial Masters) the use of the subtle system chart is practical. The subtle system Chart is also a good visual aid to connecting the proof of the Second Birth felt as 'cool breeze' to the 'Tongues of Flames/ 1000 Petal Lotus/Winds of Qiyamah AND The Koran quote " That Day shall we set a seal on their mouths, but their hands will speak to us... " 3)Any photo, statue, book relating to Athena, Kuan Yin, spiral of the Kundalini on a vase, depictions of Sahasrara in paintings.... items demonstrating visually things which have been discussed; they are of interest as 'verification'. Religions chart and Identity/Resurrection pamphlet can be downloaded at: http://adishakti.org/Religions_Chart_and_ID_Resurrection_Pamphlet.xls An aside here: HOW to make a MASTER COPY of the ID/Resurrection Pamphlet: When the 'Divine Feminine Adi Shakti Kingdom of God' document is printed off from the above URL, the space(s) for Shri Mataji's picture will be blank. HOWEVER, this is easily solved, if you wish, by simply cutting out 1,2, or 4 chosen photos of Shri Mataji, placing the photo(s) onto the space(s) given for Her photo, then using invisible scotch tape to paste the photo(s) onto the master copy with all scotch tape ends connected (no paper spaces left). This master copy can then be mass photocopied by you, and also cut to size, by you, at the photocopying place for a quite affordable total cost for numerous copies. D)Connecting the religions to: 1)Divine Feminine (Mother) 2)Union 3)Kingdom of God 4)AGE 5)subtle system 6)Eschatological Evidence -point out the Divine Feminine in all the religions -Kundalini - dormant in os sacrum, one's individual Mother Who created us, cares about us, desires to give us Self-Realization/Second Birth/Resurrection, and when awakened through our desire, She can be FELT! -Personally I do not say HOW or WHERE the Kundalini can be felt, because I have the participants note their OWN EXPERIENCE of this awakening for themselves first and then have people SHARE their experiences with others after the SELF-REALIZATION exercise. -Brief intro to Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi including the **opening of Sahasrara on May 5, 1970, fact that She used to travel throughout the world to give the Second Birth, She was present as a young child in Gandhi's ashram, active participant in India's Freedom movement... -The importance of this Age of Last Judgment/Resurrection Time we're in and the vital significance of Sahaja Yoga - the 'spontaneous union' with the Divine as the culmination of Shri Jesus' message " Ye must be born again " . -peace, silence, bliss of meditation at Sahasrara, Mother within, spiritual growth and transformation. SELF-REALIZATION EXERCISE: -It's advisable to show what will be done in the exercise - feet on floor, hands on lap, palms up, eyes closed until asked to open them, brief explanation of where hands will be placed, and meaning of Spirit, forgiveness at Agnya, Fontanelle bone area and how to move hands clockwise, seven times, slowly **In a school classroom it's also advisable to state that each person has the free will to participate in the meditation or not, but that it is expected that respect will be extended to others who do wish to meditate. -a few minutes after the end of the exercise, with eyes still closed, individuals note their own experience of SR and the proof of their Second Birth - each hand placed individually above Sahasrara, then both hands, palm up at heart level - ask them to note what they feel, if anything, above the head, on hands, compare hands, in body... -exchange info on what has been experienced within class - warmth, heaviness, cool, all is the PROOF of the Birth of the Spirit! -explain again that this SECOND BIRTH is the connection to the Divine, the individual's transformation now from Homo Sapiens to Homo Spiritus, their Resurrection - that is, " evolving from a temporary physical body to the eternal spiritual self. " - " Know Thy Self " - One can also give a brief example of how one can introspect/know/judge oneself by noting the message on the hands and the connection to the subtle system and the meaning of that connection - in order to correct ourselves and to " Be ye perfect as your Father in Heaven is perfect. " - " Know Thy Self. " - signifies becoming the Spirit After SR and actually feeling the 'cool breeze'...as proof of the Resurrection/Last Judgment, one can disclose fully both the identity of Shri Mataji and Her vital Salvation message of the Last Judgment: " In between Jesus Christ and His destroying Incarnation of Mahavishnu called as Kalki, there is a time given to human beings to rectify themselves, for them to enter into the Kingdom of God, which in the Bible is called as Last Judgment.
