Memories of our Divine Mother: 25. WHY WAS I CHOSEN 1) Sharon Vincent said: I was at Sheffield Railway Station [in England]. I was having a lot of personal problems at the time. There were about four or five girls in a row and I remember Shri Mataji looking at us all and She put Her eyes on me and I felt that She was looking right through me and She saw everything. She said, "Come here." And I walked over to Her and She took my hands in Her hands and She said, "Don't worry. Everything will be all right." And, of course, when She says that everything will be all right and is all right. So the experiences I have had with Her are very human. When you are with Shri Mataji you see there is something very human. Obviously, the human qualities, the patience and the love and the compassion and the generosity, which are overwhelming, but also, at the same time, you have the other experiences which are very how do you say it? which touch the soul and which are very spiritual. And you see Her in certain ways, in Her subtle form maybe, which is much more difficult to speak about. You see, when you meet Shri Mataji when someone who has never met Shri Mataji before and they hear people saying, "Well, She's very generous," it has a great impression I think. It has a great impression because you see this generosity and you see these qualities in Her which are extraordinary in Her. This is when you don't even know who She is or you don't feel what is happening on a subtle level. She gives you money. She even gave me money. She has given me money once and obviously I paid Her back. But She wanted to She gave me money very willingly when I needed it. The thing that is most important is the subtle effect that it has on you, the spiritual thing, the growth, the development in your self. It touches the deep part of you, and it is very difficult to put it into words. And to be living in this time and to have experienced all this is sometimes is very difficult to imagine sometimes. I wonder why I was chosen and why I was so lucky enough to have been there in physically in Her presence, physically in Her presence. But also it makes you realize that She is everywhere and She is always there and She is eternal. The Spirit is eternal. But how fortunate we are in these times to see Her in Her form, Her bodily form. And what always made me laugh was that sometimes in the programs She would be dropping Her handbag by Her side or taking a cup of tea so human. And there She was with Her hands out a second later, giving the vibrations, completely contrary, completely opposite something that you cannot comprehend. You cannot comprehend this, to see something completely human and yet so completely above. She takes you to another dimension or level of consciousness. She is incredible. And another thing, when you see Her at the airport, it's incredible. There are millions of people in Sahaja Yoga all over the world and She comes to you, and you know that She hasn't changed from the first time you've met Her. She is still behaving exactly like She did twenty years ago. But at the same time She comes up to you and says to you, "Hello, Sharon. How are you?" And you say oh, it's incredible. And She knows everyone to the minutest detail. She knows who you are, what you are. And you say, "Why does She ask me?" Because She knows everything about me anyway, She knows every tiny little detail about everybody, She knows their names and She goes so deeply into people's problems, if they have had problems, to sort them out. Sharon Vincent 2) Nirmal Gupta said: And I saw Her coming out of the car and walking one or two steps. And after that I got lost. I don't remember anything. And then I saw Her on the stage. It was like moonlight, watching Her. Nirmal Gupta 3) Sharon Vincent said: To be living in this time and to have experienced all this is very difficult to imagine sometimes. I wonder why I was chosen and why I was so lucky enough to have been there in Her presence. It's all these little experiences, which stay with you for the rest of your life. You can't ignore them. Sharon Vincent 4) Michael Petrunia said: It dawned on me that what She had been telling about the future of Sahaja Yoga has come to be, that there will be so many of us, that we will not even be able to catch a glimpse of Her. Michael Petrunia 5) Helen Manassey said: It is completely overwhelming that God loves us so much.
