And also he knew me. So he
came. Just to oblige me. And the road was all crowded. When I enquired,
"What's going on?" I was informed that there is one tantrik
who is beating himself with a big hunter and people were thronging to
that place. I was so disappointed. I said in this place of the Goddess,
why people were taking, specially Kali's worshippers, how could they
take to this 'pret vidyas', 'mashan vidya'? And all kinds of tantrik
nonsense. The very intelligent people, very artistic, extremely loving,
what has happened to them? I couldn't understand. Then second time I came. Everybody who came, said, I am already 'dikkhit', means 'dikshit' means they had already been blessed by some sort of a guru. Most of these were tantrikas, most of the ideas were so wrong. I could not open my mouth
at that time and tell them that it was all wrong. I said all of them
put together will throw me out permanently. I don't know how the change
started moving one after another. l used to think, who will look after
Bengal. It was very important. Bengal is the place from where the greatest
patriots, greatest writers, greatest artists have come out. It's a proud
place for all of us. The whole country is proud of Bengal. And what
has happened is, that it's full of 'Kali vidya' about which Nanaka had
written so clearly against it one full chapter is there in 'Grantha
Sahib'. And when I saw this being so much, amass spread-out, I felt,
somebody must come up. Somebody who should really shoulder the responsibility
of. Bengal. And then, I found, I must say Jalan, who is from Rajasthan, but he is out and out a Bengali, in every way. And he told me, Mother, they will all change, you come again and again. And really it is something very surprising how Bengal, how Calcutta has changed. Two years they waited for me, I know. But the amount of change and transformation that has taken place in Bengal is remarkable. Wherever there is this black art, there will be poverty. Like Kerala has black art, here it is black art. As soon as this black art goes away, because not only that they do something to you physically, but to your Kundalini also they harm and also they harm you very much, financially. They take money and really people have become very poor. But then somehow this love for the Mother, these Bengalis have. Here a little girl is also a 'Ma'. Once a minister came to see me, who was a communist. He said, "Mother I am sorry. I got delayed because I had to go to the Kali temple to worship." I said you are a communist, why do you worship at the Kali temple. He said, "How can I forget my mother, because I am a communist? I will better give up communism. My mother is everything." I was surprised at him. Though he was a communist he believed in Mother. So the motherhood is very much worshipped in Bengal and that is the basis of their very loving nature and they are extremely tolerant people. Moreover when I was born, my mother said a Bengali girl has been born in our family. I looked very much like a Bengali. And anywhere, even now, I go, if there is an Indian they ask me, are you from Bengal. But I can look like anyone. But somehow or the other it works out. You don't know, how a mother feels proud of her children. It's not easy to express. It's a very deep feeling of your own growth, your own achievements that your children have come up so much. I mean all those people, who today spoke I never heard them, some of them before. But I can tell you about Rajesh, who never used to step on, to the stage. One day we were In a big
mess and this whole program had started, and the minister had come,
and this had come and nobody was there to compare. So I pushed him and
said, you better start now, immediately. And now look at him, how he
has mastered it. So many poets, so many orators, so many musicians and
all areas of human endeavour, businessmen, and every area, bureaucrats,
I am surprised that how they have accepted Sahaja Yoga so well, surrendered
completely, and have shown such results, such results as if somebody
has sparked them. Recently one of my nieces had come. Her husband was
suffering from arthritis, and he got well. So when they went back, they
told their son about it. So he started worshipping me. They told me,
our son is no good in studies, what to do with him and all that? And
you will be surprised, that within one year he has topped the list of
U.R boys in matriculation. The one who was not a good student. So this power of Kundalini
is with in you. It is there. Only we must utilize it. As I told you
in Shiv Puja, what covers it is your ego or your conditioning. Allow
it to grow and it will really show you how great and glorious you are.
It is not me who is doing it. It is your Kundalini which is working
it out. One thing, she knows me. That's all. And the way this transformation
has taken place, also shows your 'poorva janma's punyas' and your intelligence,
the way you have accepted, it is too subtle and even Kabira got lost
and he said 'Kaise samjhaun sab jag and ha'. All of them got fed up
and they said, better take a samadhi because these people are n6t going
to take to this 'sukshma' knowledge. But today, what do you find it
spreading. This is the blossom time. And to me, it's the pleasure of
the mother, the joy of the mother, of seeing this world changing. So
many people think about it, that they want to have this kind of world. Buddha said the same, Mahavira said the same, Christ said the same, Krishna said the same, Rama said the same, Lao-tse, you find everyone, the Zen, everybody said the same thing that we have to achieve that world, that we have to enter into the Kingdom of God. And how it has happened to yourself, I am really surprised myself, very much surprised and also so much gratified that you people have taken to it, so seriously and you are working it out in every country. If I could do it alone, why should I convert you to Sahaja Yoga. It has to have channels. And channels as pure as yourself. Otherwise it cannot work out. That's how irs spreading. You have all the powers. Please try to assume those powers. This I have been saying. Like a beggar is made a king, suppose. Then he sits on the throne and is still begging. Then what's the use of making him the king. Its like this. Now you have entered into
the kingdom of God. Have faith in that. And that you are all capable
of transforming this world. You are the people who are really chosen.
So responsibility is great, and for that you don't have to do in Sahaja
Yoga, you don't have to do anything. You don't have to pay, you don't
have to stand on your head, you don't have to fast, you don't have to
give up your family. Nothing. Only thing you must have is pure desire.
'Pure Desire', which is the power of Kundalini and keeps your connection
intact, be collective and always think of others who haven't got it.
Have mercy on them. Don't get angry with them. You must have patience.
Have mercy on them and with that mercy you will be surprised you can
get so many people to Sahaja Yoga. I mean this hall is already not sufficient.
I don't know, next birthday whats going to happen. Another surprising thing is that in the West, the people have become so innocent. Phillip, who is a German. We used to hear the name of German and used to run away. He is the gentlest person you could think of. Extremely gentle. I am surprised, all this gentleness in Germans, if it is awakened then what will happen. You will establish the Kingdom of God on this earth. There are people who are really surprisingly have become so sweet, so mild, so beautiful, so dynamic, so affectionate, at the same time such compassion, such understanding. They are all of such a high quality, angel-like people that I look them and I wonder how this has happened. This was all there, it was all there, only they got it. So, I have to congratulate you, instead of you saying this to me because whatever I am, I have been for ages now Whatever you are, if you are that, what is so great. Nothing great. I have not achieved anything. You have achieved it and thats why I congratulate you all, and I am very much thankful to you, Sir (General Joshi, Chief of the Army Staft), for coming over to this function because you are placed in such a position where people can see that a man of this calibre also can understand, then this is something very great. As Rai Sahib has also said that he wants to do something in holistic medicine and in Delhi we are thinking of starting a research centre where I hope, we will be able to prove many diseases which we have cured no doubt we have cured blood cancer, madness, Aids, heart - that is the biggest. One fellow had a bypass about ten years back. Then the doctors said, your bypass had gone old, you have to change it. So they were making him ready for the thing. He went and prayed and said, "Mother please I don't want to have an operation." When the next he went to the hospital, they found that his old 'aorta' which was clogged, had opened out and he had become a normal person. I didn't know myself that he was cured when I went to his house, I found that he was doing gardening. I said, "what are you doing? You are not so well." He said, "Mother, I am now normal. I am playing tennis." I said, Oh My God. Sahaja Yoga is such a surprise. Our third doctor is getting a M.D. I came to know very recently. I didn't know that he has got it. She is not a Sahaja Yogini. Even Dr. Sethi is not a Sahaja Yogi. Otherwise they will say, you are giving false reports. You see these days, everything
is false so they think that we are also false. But it is happening everywhere.
People are getting cured, their mental health is better, their family
life is better, their jobs are better their business is. Better relationships
are very good. But One thing is always there. We must keep 'Shuddha
ichch ha'. Means we must meditate. Very important. Really I have no
words, as I said what you are telling about me reminds me, once, Ravindra
Nath Tagore, our great Gurudev wrote a poem. The poem was so good that
everybody sent comments about it. So he read it and said, "I never
knew all this I wrote. People are sending me all these reports, and
I don't know. But this is it. Its not that what I do is not so
important, it is how you receive it and how you reciprocate, that is
important. And that has happened in this Kali Yuga. I have to thank
you again and again and I thank you very much for all this. Moreover,
I must say that I have never known that Bengal is are so systematic
and so organised, I never knew. If this organising capacity has come
through Sahaja Yoga, then my hats off to Sahaja Yoga. Whatever I knew
about Bengalis was that they were never organised, they were this and
they were that, but I was surprised that such arrangements they have
made, and what nice beautiful cards and things. Impossible You cannot
believe it that such things can happen in this Calcutta. And has happened,
that means that you are in for a very prosperous and beautiful life
in Bengal. May God Bless You!
