Bouncing Back

Celebrating Mother’s Day – “Motherhood is much more important than the guruhood. Because guru is the one who trains you, makes you efficient. But the Mother forgives you, She loves you, She sustains you and She teaches you how to love. She has tremendous patience and tremendous love and She does it single-handed.” Shri Mataji

Sometimes, all we want is to feel the calmness in our mind. In the midst of all the problems, a small prayer can give a ray of hope and peace within us. So together, let us understand the beauty of prayers. Kirti Rawal, a long time Sahaja Yoga practitioner, guides us through some simple affirmations to understand the importance of prayers. “Prayer is a very great thing for Sahaja yogis.

The Mooladhara chakra, at the base of our spine, represents Innocence, Purity, Wisdom and Discrimination. When this center is established, our attention becomes pure and so we can achieve a state of thoughtless awareness in our meditation.

Imagine this world without any fun, what would happen?” Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Founder of Sahaja Yoga meditation

Sometimes, the illusion of our mind, and ideas of how things should be, can cause frustrations. Through meditation, we can surrender to new ideas to overcome these frustrations by going beyond the mind.

When She’s awakened, She takes you, with that awakening, She takes you beyond your mind. The first thing is to go beyond your mind.” Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Founder of Sahaja Yoga meditation Video is from our Facebook series: “The Journey within Sahjaja Yoga meditation”  www.facebook.com/groups/sahajajourneywithin

Freedom & Liberation: The life of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi On the footsteps of the saint who brought Self Realisation to humanity. Inspired by her political parents and Mahatma Gandhi, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi dedicated her youth to the political freedom of India, her motherland. But during those times, she kept to her true vision − a vision which goes beyond political freedom, a vision of inner freedom and transformation of each individual. From 1970 to 2011, Shri Mataji’s vision would take her to the five continents, giving thousands of lectures and offering Self Realisation en masse through her Sahaja Yoga meditation movement. (A short meditation by Shri Mataji is included at the end of the video) “… we are here to get our freedom, to get the freedom for our spirit, to make our spirit free from our greed, lust, from your anger, from our conditionings, from our terrible ego.” Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
