Speech of the Week

“What does the world need? You just think of it. It needs only love and affection.”- HH Shri Mataji
Dear Family,
Jai Shri Mataji!
This week’s ‘Speech of the Week’ for us to collectively absorb and imbibe, is about the loving qualities of Shri Jesus, what he has done for our development, self mastery and how we are individually responsible for spreading love and compassion as Sahaja Yogis.
HH Shri Mataji explains how Shri Jesus’ resurrection has helped us today to open our Agnya, and that without opening the Agnya, we cannot go to Sahasrara. HH Shri Mataji also teaches us that Shri Jesus was the one who took the led in telling people that: “You seek, you seek and you’ll find.” And He said that, “You have to come and bang at the door” of our Agnya.
We all should really be very thankful to Christ for opening the Agnya for us.
This week’s theme is: “You can spread Sahaja Yoga only through Love and Compassion”

“What does the world need? You just think of it. It needs only love and affection.”
“First of all you know this is the love of Mother. Mother never dominates. She cannot dominate because She is nothing but love. As soon as She sees the problem, immediately She absorbs it. She has to make deliberations, just a drama sometimes, to show that She is angry. But She cannot basically be angry with anyone.
It’s the love which all the time, all the time, is flowing and that love envelops the Mother as well as you. That is how you people understand Sahaj Yoga. What does a human being need is nothing but love and compassion. Love and compassion of a very, very pure type. Look at Christ. He pitied the people who crucified Him. He told His father, The God Almighty that, “Please forgive them, because they do not know what they are doing.” He could see that the blindness of these people, are doing wrong things and God the Father would be very annoyed, who is wrathful, and may destroy them.”
…..
“What does the world need? You just think of it. It needs only love and affection.
Those people who are yet lost in the ignorance about life and are still busy troubling others, torturing others, going against the collectivity will have to return to normalcy. It’s very abnormal behaviour sometimes and you just don’t understand why they behave like mad people. It is very difficult also to tell such people that, “You are mad!” And also is difficult to be with such a person who is so mad with some sort of a power.
It goes on like that with so many Sahaj Yogis, I have seen who start thinking they have lots of powers, they think they can do whatever they like, they can talk to anyone and they can confuse everyone. But in Sahaj Yoga you don’t have to confuse, you have to clearly express your love. But that doesn’t mean any kind of particular gesture for a particular happening, but it is just an inner oneness with each other.
Sometimes I find Sahaj Yogis so much understanding each other, so much loving each other, so beautifully enjoying the love of other people. When I see that, I feel very, very happy, absolutely overjoyed. That’s what I wanted – [that] these people should enjoy is there.”

Collective Prayer
Param Pujya Shri Mataji,
Please bless us with the qualities of Shri Jesus Christ of a very pure love and compassion, wisdom and forgiveness. Please give us the clarity, balance and strength to imbibe them.
Jesus Christ, we are eternally grateful to You for opening the Agnya chakra. Without this we would not be able to be in Sahasrara.
Oh God, please forgive all who have done wrong by us, for they do not know what they are doing.
Jai Shri Mataji
Enjoy!
Jai Shri Mataji!
