Truncated Transcription Below:
1. “And this, once it happens, then you get all the blessings of physical health, emotional well-being - many mad people have been cured by this - and also of mental enhancement; that you start seeing things as they are. Because you enter into the realm, as soon as the Kundalini crosses over this point (Agnya), you enter into the realm where there is no thought. You are aware, but you become thoughtless. In thoughtlessness, only, you can see things much more clearly. Because supposing you see a particular scene, there is a thought in between. Then you start thinking “how much it must have cost? From where it must have come?” and you cannot enjoy that scene directly. But if there is not thought, like a rippleless lake, the whole joy of that creation is reflected in it and you start enjoying it. But it only happens if the Kundalini has crossed up to this point. But when it pierces through this (Sahasrara) you start feeling the Cool Breeze in the hand, flowing. Now all these centers are reflected on our fingers here. All these centers like, from here you can say, one, first one is here. Second and then the third and then the fourth fifth and sixth, and this is the seventh. All these seven centers are reflected on our fingers and hands, on this one and this one. And after that you can start feeling your self and others on these fingers, to begin with. Later on as you grow in it and mature in it, then you start feeling them for yourself. For example, this starts moving from, say, this center, which is below the Kundalini. And this does not take any role in the awakening of the Kundalini, except that it informs, [the Kundalini] that, there is somebody who knows the job. Now this Kundalini rises without any harm, without any trouble, in a very straightforward manner. Now there are books, you might have read, some of you, that [say that] “Kundalini rising is the most hazardous thing, it creates lots of problems” and all sorts of things. But here I am before you. I must have given Kundalini awakening to thousands of people in India and abroad, but have not seen this thing happening to even one person. This thing happens to people who do not know the job because supposing you do not know what is electricity - you’ll always get a shock. And then you will say that “electricity means shock”. If you do not know how to maneuver the power, and if you are not authorized to do it, if you do something unauthorized, you are going to fall into problems. This is what happens, and this is why there is such a lot of writing against Kundalini. People say Kundalini should not be risen. After all this is the germinating power within us. It’s like a primule, it’s the ‘ankura’ within us, which has to sprout to make us living and enlightened.” - United Kingdom, 20 July 1979
2. “Not you, but there are many I know who get realization, who don’t meditate and their style is different, their nature is different. Meditation is such a soothing thing, such a beautiful way of connection with the Divine, that all your problems get solved in that meditative mood. If you are not meditating, you are not following meditation, then maybe your light will go down, it won’t give sufficient light. It’s important, very important to find out about yourself, about others in the meditation. How to do meditation, many people ask Me. Don’t do anything, to just go into thoughtless awareness. Try to go to the thoughtless awareness. If you can get into that condition of thoughtless awareness you’ve done your job, because that’s the point where you are with the truth, with the reality, with the joy, with everything that is so fundamental. When you meditate try not to, not to make some sort of a function out of it - no. Meditation is something silencing yourself, silencing your thoughts and going to that deep ocean which is within you itself. But supposing you don’t do that, if you don’t meditate. I can make out immediately those who are meditating and those who are not, it’s not difficult for Me. Those who do not meditate are always hesitating and they are confused, they can’t understand; and that’s why meditation is the most important thing in Sahaja Yoga. Just like a light burns with the electricity flowing in it, you can say, or by, because of the candles, in the same way meditation is a continuous availability of the divine Force. That will reduce all your apprehensions. Not only that but takes out all the negative thoughts, it takes out all the discouraging thinking. And when you are meditating like that, thoughtless awareness, then you’ll be amazed how you are helped from within and without. It’s a terrible power that works, this thoughtless awareness. So those who do not meditate cannot go very much far with the advantage of Sahaja Yoga. One should try to meditate and go up to the point of thoughtless awareness.” -California, 03 November 2002
