Sahastrara Puja 1984

It is so wonderful for your Mother to see you so many beautiful Sahaja Yogis assembled together on this day of Sahastrara. I think the first era of Sahaja Yoga has ended now and new has started. In the first era of Sahaja Yoga, the starting point was first the opening of the Sahastrara. And gradually moving towards the completion, I find there are so many who are great Sahaja Yogis today. It is a very natural process of growth that you have gone through. The first one was, we can say, is just the awakening of the Kundalini, and piercing the fontanel bone area. As you see on top of your head these bandhans that's how you too have in your head, the same way. And you have the chakras the same way, built in your Sahastrara. So in the first era of Sahaja Yoga, we have awakened the deities in your centers, in the medulla oblongata and also in the brain, but now the time has come for us to spread it on a horizontal level, and to move it on the horizontal level, we have to understand how to go about it. Like the seven colors of the rainbow, we have got seven colors of the light of these centers, of the chakras, and when we started from the back, from the Mooladhara, bringing it up to the, this side, Agnya, then it is placed in a different order, if you see it clearly. I mean to say that in the Sahastrara, because it's a concave placement, it’s important to understand, that the center of the fontanel bone area corresponds to our heart. So, heart is the pivotal point for the second era now. I hope you understand what I mean. So if you have to place your attention to Sahastrara, first thing you have to do is to pay attention to your heart. In the Sahastrara, the heart-chakra and the heart itself, the Atma, coincide. Means the Jagadamba becomes one with the heart, that is the Atma, so we see that here the yoga takes place. At this point of time, it is very important to understand that we have to take a bigger step. The whole Sahastrara moves in this way, all these chakras throw their lights in this way, in a clockwise manner and the axis is the heart.

So the essence of all the religions, of all the prophets, of all the incarnations, is compassion, and is placed in this chakra of heart. Thus we understand that in the second era now, we have to have compassion, is the manifestation now of the compassion. If God Almighty had no compassion, He would not have created this great universe. Actually His power, or the Adi Shakti, is the embodiment of His compassion, and this compassion has brought forth all the evolution to human level and even your emancipation as Sahaja yogis, and compassion is always completely covered with forgiveness. ...

In the first era of Sahaja Yoga, you needed to see me in person. As we say in Sanskrit, a Dhyeya, is the target, you wanted the target in front of you, whatever is to be achieved. So now when you wanted that all the time and you felt happy, secure, joyous, when you had that in person before you. Then, in the second era, now, you will not desire so much that Mother should be there. You'll take it over from me. This is the Divine Desire I'm telling you about, and you have to work on that from today onwards. I am with you, you know that, but need not be in this body, because I don’t know if I exist in this body or not. But once this desire starts working, you will see tremendous miracles happening.

When the child is born to a mother, automatically she gets milk. So the nature is so connected with the whole thing. In your divine desire also it is connected, and it is very evident when you are a divine person. So you may find me anywhere, you are walking on the street, suddenly you might find Mataji walking with you. So this is the second era we have started, and you should not be shocked if you see me sitting on your bed and putting my hand on your head, or you may see me in the form of Christ walking into your room, or as Shri Rama. That has to happen, so you should be prepared.

Already so many miracles have taken place on you, but on a grosser level. You have seen the light coming on my head and the photographs have shown some miracles to you, but many things will happen, that you will see something that you could never imagine. This has to happen just to convince you that you have reached a certain height of your evolution in the new area of Pragyalok because this is a new state into which now you will be entering on a horizontal basis.

In this area you will give up asking for gross things, and also for anything subtler, anything that is subtle, the asking will disappear, and that is the time you will become very powerful. Whatever I say happens as you know, only thing, I cannot command you to be evolved. The Kundalini's work in you has been done, quite a lot, now the new work of compassion, of spreading it to others, has to be done by you. As the light grows brighter and brighter, the area it covers becomes bigger and bigger. So you become the giver of compassion.
