Sahaja Yoga is a unique method of meditation
introduced since 1970 by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, by which Self
Realization is achieved effortlessly. It opens the doors to a new dimension
of awareness whose tangible benefits are experienced daily by tens of
thousands of practitioners all over the world.
I found Sahaja Yoga entirely by chance, when in 1986 I
noticed an ad for a public program of Sahaja Yoga. "Come, the Mother
Calls, it said". I went along to the program, and since then my life
has changed slowly and imperceptibly. Following the program, there was a
follow up program for a week, after which there were tri-weekly meetings. I
went along to all them as I realized that Sahaja Yoga at the very least was
about self purification, and the very highest was about manifesting the
Divine in us.
That was when I started to notice some changes in me.
For one, my knee pain vanished, as did my breathing problems. My father and
my grandmother, both got cured of asthma that they had been suffering from
for more than 25 and 45 years respectively. I got a wonderful job, and the
best of all, SY showed me how all the religions of the world are really
united. It showed how the difference among the great religions of the world
were entirely man made – they were all really parts of one whole. And thus
all the people of the world belong to one great family, and there were a
great many people out there who were living like this in reality!
Through the experience of a very subtle energy called
‘vibrations’, I got to know with a certainty, about the existence of God
(whatever be the name He/She is known by), and this filled me with a
profound sense of gratitude, security and peacefulness. The greatest joy is
when a seeker desperate to know the Truth about life, gets his realization
and finds his doubts being answered and settles down to a life of purity,
tranquility, satisfaction, harmony and compassion.
When I see this
transformation taking place in thousands all over the world among people
from the most varied backgrounds - race, religion or languages - I know
that Shri Mataji, is the One promised by all the great prophets and
incarnations. She is The World Saviour, The Mother, who has come to
nurture a tortured humanity with Love, and save it from itself. She is the
one who is fufilling the promises made by Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Krishna,
etc. Through Her love, She not only cures a troubled humanity of its
diseases and sufferings, but also promotes mutual understanding and harmony
as the individual discovers a source of tremendous beauty and love deep
within himself.
Sahaja Yoga has made my life beautiful. Thank You Shri
Mataji!
