Speech of the Week: Dedication through Meditation – England 1982

Speech of the Week

“Forget all the sustenance’s, and completely dedicate to Me.” – HH Shri Mataji

Dear Family,

Jai Shri Mataji!

This week’s theme is: “Dedication through Meditation ”

We are in a time where forces are working on our ego and superego to create beliefs that move us in the wrong direction. These forces work through us in ways that we aren’t aware of and cause us to justify our actions or accept others actions which are not good for our ascent. These forces unknowingly become our gurus and either come from within, stemming from inner emotions or through others who we trust or admire who pass their beliefs on to us through inner emotions. They make us accept situations and ideals and we forget to stand on our foundations of being seekers of the truth, devotees only to HH Shri Mataji.

The answer is, as always, a simple one, but in our society, proves challenging. We must continually work on it within ourselves, keep our attention there and without attachment, encourage all Sahaja Yogi’s to do the same. Otherwise, if we continue listening to these forces, we will never get out of the Maya and instead of spreading Sahaja Yoga, we spread the Maya.

“We focus on dedication. Gurus, unknowingly can form in our minds in many ways. We separate ourselves from attachments to people, groups, friends…” – HH Shri Mataji

Let’s listen to and devote ourselves completely to HH Shri Mataji. Only through devotion is the path of our ascent. In our attention, let’s disband all other thoughts, groups, friends and ideals, and only have HH Shri Mataji there, keeping Her truly in everything that we do.

Enjoy the guidance from our Holy Mother.

Jai Shri Mataji

Dedication through Meditation, Cheltenham England 31st July, 1982

“Forget all the sustenance’s, and completely dedicate to Me.”

“But you are Sahaja Yogis and you have to construct yourself. I didn’t want to shatter your egos before, never to tell you in these words. Perhaps this is the first time I am saying this to you: that you have to dedicate yourself, completely, to Me – not to Sahaja Yoga – but to Me. Sahaja Yoga is just one of my aspects.

Leaving everything, you have to dedicate. Complete dedication, otherwise you cannot ascend any further. Without questioning, without arguing.
…

Complete dedication is the only way you can achieve it. People still get caught up, still get into problems. What’s the reason? So many people ask me that, “Once we have got realisation, how is it Mother we go down?” The only reason is – the dedication is not complete. The complete reverence and complete dedication has not been established.
…
You need not face Me, you need not see Me. In person, I need not be there. It’s all in the all-pervading power. That’s all My light, which knows each and everything about you.” –
