Who has the Power
to give spontaneous union with the Divine?
Dear All,
If the message of Sahaja Yoga is the spontaneous union with
the Divine then only a Divine Personality, not a mere guru
of the subtle system, can initiate it. In fact all the holy
scriptures confirm that only the Inner Guru - Adi Shakti,
Holy Spirit, Ruh, Aykaa Mayee - can give spontaneous union
with the Divine. No human being has that ability. Only the
Adi Shakti has that power to instantly awaken the Kundalini
and give spontaneous union with the Divine.
But in almost all Sahaj Yoga websites no mention is made of
Shri Mataji being the Inner Guru, the Shakti. And i am not
talking about the Divine Message but the subtle system.
Despite all the loud claims of Sahaja Yoga giving
spontaneous union with the Divine little is given as
evidence to back it. To outsiders this is obviously an
audacious claim as it takes many rebirths spent in seeking
the Spirit/Brahman for the Kundalini to reach the Sahasrara.
Obviously these people are skeptical of such advertisement
and they have good reason to be cautious as there are a
number of charlatans claiming powers to raise kundalini.
But why is there so little evidence to back such a
unprecedented claim? Doesn't the claim that SYs (mere
humans) are empowered to raise the kundalni of others at
ordinary public programs require much more information about
Shri Mataji than is given as present? Is it possible that
the inability to officially claim Shri Mataji is the Shakti
is one of the main reasons for so many just disappearing
after the initial Self-realization? Has the Cool Breeze awed
seekers and swelled attendance at public programs?
i know all these are questions that few SYs want to answer.
On the contrary, those who ask are labeled as 'negative' and
not spreading Sahaja Yoga as Mother intended. Finding
solutions has been regarded by some as tantamount to taking
over Sahaja Yoga! Sometimes you wonder what has gone wrong
with these accusers.
But what do i have in mind that is regarded as so radical
and controversial by many SYs? - just tell the Truth, plain
and simple. There are 1001 ways of speaking the Truth about
Shri Mataji. i have given an example below of Shri
Vishwarupa, the 256th. Name of the Shakti that all SYs
meditate on:
"VisvarUpa : Visva, the jivas in the waking state
manifested through
the gross elements, and VaisvAnara is he who is the
aggregate of the
jivas. Rupa, form ie these two are her forms.
Or, by the preceding name [255] is meant that she is
inseparable
form the universe; hence this name expresses that Devi is in
the
form [rUpa] of the universe [visva]; the meaning is that her
form is
the universe itself and she has no other form except this as
the
supporter of the universe. The Visnu Pr. Says, "Just as the
plantain tree cannot be seen independently of bark and
leaves, like
wise the universe, O Lord, is seen, depending on you only."
The De.
BhAg.Pr. Also in the first book mentions, "I myself am the
universe
and there is no other permanency."
Or, vi, separate, svarUpa, a dog's form - the evolution of
human
being [jivabhAva] of Brahman directly is the lowest kind of
form,
comparable to that of a dog; so, inferior service is called
svavrtti
[dog's service, see Manu Smr.]; the lower human existence
[pasubhAva] is called SvarUpa [a dog's form of the
devotees], vi
released by means of Devi's grace.

BTW, the above quote is from a devotee who claims that Amma
is the Divine Mother and Adi Shakti. Maybe it will prick the
conscience of a few and make them realize how far back SYs
are trailing behind those who can publicly claim their guru
to be the Shakti on Earth. Truly i am amazed by the public
faith both parties have of their Divine Mother.
regards to all,
jagbir
