“When the Kundalini reaches the Sahasrara, the lotus petals open and enlightenment takes place (Samadhi). You may feel a powerful pulsation in the crown of the head, followed by a melting sensation and a flow of cool vibrations from the fontanel area.” – Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
We take this opportunity, on behalf of all Sahaja Yogis of the world, to offer our heartfelt appreciation and thanks to HH Shri Mataji on the 55th anniversary of Her greatest gift of opening the Sahasrara chakra.
