“Socrates talked about a benevolent King and Shri Rama was that benevolent King”
“Shri Rama resides there. How much He loved His wife – went all the way to Sri Lanka to bring Her back and how He treated Her, then how He had to give Her up because of the collectivity, means the country or the public and He gave her up. All the times She went away, He use to sleep on the ground and He lived like an ascetic. When She came back also She gave him. So the drama is beautiful, to show how husband and wife, though they love each other, still they only care for the collective and that’s the sacrifice for the collective, but in that both are in coordination with each other. That’s the sign of Shri Rama’s love for His wife, as a husband, as a benevolent king, as a son, as a father. She has shown a path of a ideal man, how he should behave in life.”
HH Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi,13 April 1994, Wamuran, Brisbane, Australia
“Shri Rama not only propounded what was good, but He followed that. He sacrificed for that and He established His own symbol as a pure symbol of that righteous will that is within the people, which is the collective righteous will.”
“Now Shri Rama is known for His boundaries. He doesn’t cross the limit. Yesterday, the other day, I told you about food that you don’t cross the boundaries of food, like being compassionate to the bugs and to the mosquitoes. You see, in the same way in everything discretion of the heart should be there. Now there’s no word for “discretion of the heart” in the English language, which is maryada.”

“Socrates talked about a benevolent King and Shri Rama was that benevolent King once upon a time and when I saw Lal Bahadur Shastri, I said, ” Here is a benevolent King who is come.” He has lived very short. I don’t know. That’s our fate; we Indians don’t have a very good fate, I think; doesn’t matter. But now it is for us to express his life all over the world. Here we have Sahaja Yogis from everywhere, they can take this book and they can present it to some of their politicians if they have any time to read. They might understand that there’s a life which is much higher, much valuable.”
