Shri Mataji: "Meditation is not to sit before the photograph but should be such that it works."
"Meditation is not to sit before the photograph but should be such
that it works. It should activate the Paramchaitanya, making
everything work miraculously. If this is not happening, then
something is wrong."
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
San Diego, USA May 28, 1990
Note: We bear full responsibility for all that is written and again
state that we are willing to face the consequences for our acts. The
Truth will be told as it happened. We cannot assume the hypocritical
position of disfiguring the faults of others while decorating the
shortcomings of Sahaja Yogis. We, for all the Blessings and
Enlightenment of the Great Divine Mother, regard ourselves as
ignorant beings who have a very long way to go towards enlightenment.
We hope that others accept their own ignorance with humility, and not
be offended in any way.
The famous Iranian Sufi poet Farid-Ud-Din Attar [c. 1142-1220] once
remarked: "If all of us could boast a spotless mind, why should the
prophets mingle with mankind." (The Conference of the Birds Manteq
at-Tair.) These few words carry a profound Truth for all humanity,
including those leaders and senior Sahaja Yogis who think they are
enlightened enough. If they meditate deep enough they will discover
this paradox: The more you know the more you will know the less you
know. The less you know the more you will know the more you have to
know! There is only one way out of this dilemma Just remain Silent.
Only God Almighty and His Adi Shakti know everything. Even the mighty
Deities are still learning. And the 10 Primordial Gurus know less
than them. We humans are far, far below those heavenly heights. All
that the most `senior' Sahaja Yogi (or world leader) can teach on
Earth is an "A," and that includes this entire book. From B-Z you
learn from within by being your own master. Outside your own being
there is utterly no one who can enlighten. You are absolute free of
all authority. This all seekers must know!

Answer: Silence on Self
Question: I am getting somewhat ridiculed for my own spiritual
experiences regarding the crown chakra and the divine feminine.

realized in such a hectic and materialistic world?

Mahasamadhi there will great grief and sense of loss. How can I cope

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

are right?

Question: What is the most profound and deepest enlightenment you

Question: Hi, man-made religions, sects and denominations are wide
spread. So much misdeeds and divisions are committed and blood is

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?
Answer: Silence on Self
