Self-realization and the Breath of God
"But what is meant by the term 'Self-realisation', which many traditions also call 'second birth'? A subtle mechanism inside each human being watches over a latent spiritual energy, located in the sacrum at the base of the spinal column. This energy, known as 'Kundalini' in Sanskrit (from 'kundala' meaning 'spiral'), is the reflection, within each of us, of the 'primordial Energy' - in other words the 'breath of God'. As famous as it is mysterious, this is the energy which created the universe and which Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi is able to awaken in all those who desire the knowledge of their true Self, of their role and their place in the play of the universe. In a very simple, natural and harmless manner, as we shall see further on, man gains access to a higher state of consciousness, previously the privilege of only a handful of saints during the course of history. This divine Energy, known to the Holy Scriptures, created the oceans, the mountains and every form of live on Earth. It has now become possible to feel it on the human nervous system. The sincere individual in search of the Absolute is given the possibility, in these troubled yet special times, to witness his own real transformation, thanks to the tangible experience of the"Breath"on the palms of the hands. Self-realisation is therefore the awakening of the reflection of the Primordial Energy within man, which grants him his connection with the Universal Spirit. It is the final stage in the destiny of mankind announced by all the prophets.”
