Celebrating India Independence Day
Today Sunday 15th August 2021
A New Era – Sacrifice, Freedom, Ascent
Dear Family,
Jai Shri Mataji!
Today, India celebrates its 75th Independence Day. Independence Day marks the occasion when India achieved political freedom from England on 15 August 1947.
Our Divine Mother uses this day to remind us that we have also received our spiritual freedom after Self Realisation.
Freedom for our Spirit
“Now, after that, we are here to get our freedom, to get the freedom for our Spirit. To make our Spirit free from our greed, lust; from your anger, from our conditionings, from our terrible ego, from the body being enslaved by comforts.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Bordi India, 6th February 1985

A New Era – Sacrifice, Freedom, Ascent
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi • Bordi India, 6th February 1985
“I am immensely joyous to see you all here. I do not know what to say from my side. The words get lost, they have no meaning.
So many of you are aspiring to ascend to that state where you would have complete joy, bliss and peace. This is what I could give you. And a mother is only happy when she can give whatever she has to her children. Her unhappiness, all her restlessness, everything is just to achieve that end – to gift all that she has.”

Maa Teri Jai Ho (A Tribute song)
Lyrics:
Ma, Teri Jay. Ho, Tera Hi Vijay. Ho
Victory be to You, O Mother India!
Tere Git. Se Aj. Jag. Ye Jivit. Ho
Let this world get alive today with Your song!
Ma, Teri Jay. Ho…
Victory be to You, O Mother India!
Tere Gaw Ke Khet. Bhi Ga Rahe Hai
Even the fields of Your villages are singing today
Tere Aj. Nagaro Me Jay Jay Ki Dhun. Hai
and from the towns the melody of Your victory is coming
Tumhe Dekh.Ke Ye Jagi Din. Duniya
By seeing You only, this unhappy world
Aur. Vo Ga Rahi Thi Ki…
Is also singing ‘Victory to You!’
Jab Akho Me Asu Juba Pe The Chale (x2)
Even when we had tears in our eyes
Ye Dil Ga Raha Tha Ki…our hearts were still singing ‘Victory to You!’
Chitaye Hamari Gagan. Se Bhidi Thi (x2)
And even when the flames of the pyres were reaching the heights of the sky
Vaha Likh. Rahi Thi Ki…they were writing there ‘Victory to You, O Mother!’
