"As the Kundalini rises into the third part, next to the Nabhi
Chakra, we become absolutely righteous. This area, which we call as
the Ocean of Illusion, is enlightened by ten principles of mastery.
The great masters have created these ten centres of commandment
which are enlightened and we become holy. There is no need to be
strict in one's behavior. We automatically become really spiritual.
Like an egg becomes the bird, we are born twice. In Sanskrit a Yogi
or the one who knows about Brahma, meaning the All-Pervading Power,
is called Dwija and a bird is also called Dwija, meaning twice born.
There were Abraham and Moses and all the ten Primordial Masters who
have been born again and again on this Earth. Zoroastra has been
born five times and also so many of these were born in different
places in different countries to guide the people to take to
religious life to establish the necessary balance for the ascent.
By talking about religious life it does not work. By reading
scriptures we get lost in the web of words (Sabda Jalam). We
innately feel the existence of universal pure religion within
ourselves after awakening when the Kundalini rises into this part
called the Ocean of Illusion (Bhavasagara or Void which is the
circled area around Nabhi Chakra). When this centre is fully
enlightened and established in spirituality, we become automatically
righteous. We respect our value system, we become moral, we become
honest, non-violent and we become innately compassionate. All these
qualities becoming so evident within ourselves that we change and
get transformed into a new being who is extremely righteous and who
is like a saint. To such a person there is no need to talk about the
do's and the don'ts.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
The Void, the Ocean of Illusion (Bhavasagara) surrounds the 2nd and
3rd chakras: the Swadisthan and Nabhi chakras. When the Kundalini
is awakened the ten valencies (The Ten Commandments) are awakened
within. The religion becomes innate, and our whole priorities
change. For the religion in Sahaja Yoga is the ultimate of every
religion of any form. It is not limited to one religion, but has the
best of all religions. All real religions are leading to one aim, to
one goal. That goal is to achieve Self knowledge through our second
birth.
During the period of human evolution to date there has been a
constant battle against ignorance and illusion. This state of
ignorance is something that has to be overcome before humans can
actually experience the beauty and Reality of the Spirit. The area
that represents this struggle to cross over from illusion to Reality
is known as Void, or the Bhavasagara (Ocean of Illusion). The Void
is the gap between the Kundalini and the vagus nerve of the
parasympathetic system. It represents all spaces and time from the
beginning of creation to the peak of our evolution in human
awareness. It is the vacuum which separates our awareness from the
Absolute, the critical gap that no religious institution or
spiritual school has able to cross — till now.
The Void is the centre of our own mastery. As the Kundalini energy
enlightens this area we become our own Guru and attain gravity. This
grounded state is one of the primary ways that we remain in balance
in the midst of our turbulent existence. When the Kundalini rises
and fills the Void our Attention is led out of confusion and Maya,
and into the awareness of the higher Reality. In this way we can
take control of our own evolution without relying on external
forces. Eventually our own introspection will provide answers and
keys during our meditation. We become our own masters, far
surpassing the most enlightened religious prisoner.
In a lot of cases the key will be to recognize a solution to our
problem presented to us externally, but as we become our own master
we are able to discern the right from wrong, the Truth from
falsehood from within. The other side of the coin is the principle
of discipline. It is important for us to recognize Truth in a humble
and open-minded and give advice with the gravity of a Master. The
great Masters throughout the ages have been most humble. In this way
they surrender their ego to the Divine and are able to teach with
absolute authority, even when directly challenging the established
wisdom of the time.
Sahaja Yoga, Osho and Zen represents the struggle to cross the Void
or Bhavasagara (Ocean of Illusion). We must leave them behind to
advance and continue the silent journey within amidst all the noisy
distracting external turbulence, confusion and delusion. The journey
on Mother Earth nears its end when we realize our Self to be
Devi/Brahman, and begin daily grounding our being and existence in
that Consciousness. That is far easier said than done. It is indeed
a very difficult struggle to cross the Void (Bhavasagara - Ocean of
Illusion) to the Other Shore.
