“But we must develop that power in our hearts.”
“It’s a big shock and to reduce this shock, what can Sahaja Yogis do? What can they work it, to blast these horrible ways of human life? It’s possible with the Power of Love—you can manage! But we must develop that power in our hearts. Think of it! It’s a big lesson now for all of us, to see for ourselves, are we alright or we go on hating others? What is the function of our mind, is to hate or to love?
And this love, if it enlightens you, you will be amazed, you will be such a big force for Me. I cannot fight the whole thing alone. And, I have to have people who really develop their love and nothing else! That is one of the challenges now for all of us, for all the Sahaja Yogis all over the world. It’s not only the fight between believers and non-believers, not only the fight between Sahaja Yogis and non-Sahaja Yogis, but this is a fight where we are all one and we are going to fight it out. At every stage we have to be much more subtler.
It is very, very essential to see to the point today, are we also part and parcel of that evil thing that is working out or are we free from that and prepared to fight it? It’s a big fight and I hope it is conclusive! After this there will be no more of cruelties to human beings, no more fights, because this is a fight between the rakshasas and ourselves. It is not ordinary.”
Shri Mataji ~ Navaratri Puja, Loutraki, Greece, 21 October 2022
