Dear Om,
Since you are still around looking for answers let me first
and foremost say that it is your own mind that has led to
your disbelieve. i have no idea where you got that
soul-is-invention-of-mind theory. This is akin to dumping
the Bhagavad-Gita, Bible, Koran and Guru Granth Sahib on the
ground and urinating on them. Next your mind may say there
is no such thing as the Creator or Divine Mother, that
scriptures are books of fiction induced by flights of
fantasy, or anything that your mind wants to reject.
We cannot force believe onto you because your mind is
already filled up. But if you want to learn something that
no other guru can teach then you have to begin emptying it
i.e. learn to be thoughtless. i am talking about the Adi
Shakti Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. Maybe a powerful teacher
can make even skeptics experience the joy. Shri Krishna made
the Kauravas see his powers even though they didn't believe
him and Jesus healed even those who did not have faith in
him.
Take
Alex's advise and do Sahaja Yoga for about 6 months at least.
You must know that Sahaja Yoga is a daily experience of the
Spirit in the form of cool breeze or vibrations or Chi energy.
You will have to self-certify if you feel the Creator's energy
within and a new awareness. It is not a mental baptism that
pastors and preachers administer but a genuine spiritual
experience. You will feel the Cool Breeze of the Spirit -
hundreds of of thousand have felt The Mother Kundalini rise
from the Mooladhara up to the Sahasrara and out through the
Brahmarandhra. Christians call this the Breath of God. Sikhs
say it is the opening of the mystical Dsam Dwar (Tenth Door).
Hindus call it Self-realization and the union of Shakti (Yin)
with Shiva (Yang). Tao called this the Chi energy which is
overwhelmingly felt by SYs, even on a 24/7 basis, than any
other spiritual path i know.
Thus in order to "absorb
and integrate the external universal energy we must learn to
integrate and strengthen the fundamental life force within.
Chi healing is an ongoing process of cultivating and
strengthening the Yin (female) and Yang (male) of our being.
Good health is learning to live and be in balance with the all
aspects of our internal world - the body, mind, emotions and
spirit so that we may be in balance and good relationship with
all aspects of our external world."
If you do not feel this universal energy then just dump Sahaja
Yoga and find another path. But before you do please try to
understand that Sahaja Yoga is not just about the subtle
system. This assumption by many newcomers is the main cause of
Sahaja Yoga's dismal failure and the reason the vast majority
leave quickly. i have a quote from a seeker that seems to
provides evidence to this effect:
———————
First i have to say i'm usually a man
not rich in some sensational experiences. When i attended
for first time the classes in Varna, i was given the so
called "Self-realisation" which of course doesn't have to be
mistaken as the enlightenment. It's just a transfer of
energy from the pic of Sri Mataji. The first time after the
classes i had experiences of something new in me...i felt
the different vibrations as soon as i went out of the sahaj
club. So i began practicing the sahaj meditation as per the
instructions and i noticed first results - more joy,
spontaneity, better meditation and so on. And have to make a
remark that the effect is stronger in the group
meditations....where i fell several times in deep
meditations. Of course there was people not content with
sahaja yoga but i think that's due to the impatience and the
lack of the earnestness. Though i'm not now in sahaja yoga,
i feel grateful to Sri Mataji for she opened for me the door
for my further practice. And if u have no results....first
check urself, be more perseverant, follow what u are taught
and then if u still don't feel anything u can try to search
for something else but not before it. I mean that's
the case with the most students - they are in hurry to put
the blame on the path and the teacher but don't look at
themselves.
I wish u good luck!
P.S. I hope my english is good enough for u to understand
me.

Yes, Om, if you think Sahaja Yoga is just about transfer of
energy you will also eventually leave. i am afraid that the
catch-conscious mindset of the collective may confuse you,
despite all that wonderful experience of Self-realization.
After all there are more conducive yoga paths to continue
your spiritual journey than the fear/catch-inducing bhoots-are-everywhere
surroundings you may experience while trying to learn Sahaja
Yoga. (Most SYs are still putting their heads in the sand
and refuse to acknowledge how confusing and apprehensive
some of their treatments sound to newcomers. Even worse is
the quality of some SYs in the collective whose
ignorance/fanaticism puts others off.)
But if you know why you need this energy to take part in the
Great Event ordained for humanity you will probably never
leave. Then this great piece by Om Prem will eventually make
sense:
"Paths
are many, but Truth is One. There are many routes to the top
of the mountain but they all converge at the top and share
the same view.
It is instructive to read the saints and seers from
different religions and spiritual disciplines. Even though
they are unaware of each other, live thousands of miles
away, and are perhaps centuries apart, they tend to use the
same language, even the same metaphors, and describe a
common view. This suggest to me that there is a single
Absolute Reality that initially is perceived in many ways or
presented in many ways to accommodate different karmas and
psychologies but as
sadhana progresses and the minds thin out, the Pure Mind
apprehends a common Reality."
So Om, if you continue meditating regularly and at the same
time try understanding Shri Mataji's message of the Last
Judgment and Resurrection you will be among the first to
reach the top of the mountain. Only then will you be able to
share the same view that the Creator has for all of us. Then
you will neither be a Hindu, Muslim, Jew, Christian,
Buddhist, Jain or Sikh but a sum of all put together,
....................... and more. The Pure Mind will
eventually apprehend a common Reality for all humanity.
In the end you will realize that everything is within your
own being. Then you will not need any teachers to continue
for the Silence within will help you realize the Pure Mind
of Collective Consciousness.
Till then stay on this forum so that your growth will be
sustained and you will not leave just because you can
continue your subtle system journey under another guru. Once
you know in your heart that no external guru can teach you
about the Great Event ordained for humanity you will stay
and learn
to become your own inner guru.
