Conversation with Dr. Talwar, Mumbai (India)

Sahaja Yoga is described as a unique knowledge that Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi had been born with.
Initially, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi found it challenging to reveal this knowledge and sought ways to do so.
On May 5th, 1970, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi opened the seventh chakra as part of the process to reveal this knowledge.
The concept of “brahmachaitanya” was previously unmanifested and was difficult to explain or comprehend.
Previous incarnations attempted to share this knowledge with their followers, but due to its unmanifested nature, they were unable to fully realize or express it.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi declared to be the incarnation of brahmachaitanya in its entirety, representing its manifestation.
The unmanifested state of brahmachaitanya made it challenging for people to experience or understand it fully.
With Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi‘s arrival, the unmanifested state has transformed into a manifested form, making it easier for people to comprehend and experience.
Through Sahaja Yoga, individuals gradually elevate their consciousness, experience their Kundalini rising, and attain self realization.
The concept of vibrations is emphasized in Sahaja Yoga, which was not discussed clearly in previous teachings due to the unmanifested nature of brahmachaitanya.
Sahaja Yoga enables individuals to feel sensations on their senses and fingertips, providing a tangible experience of spiritual awakening.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi brought the complete form of brahma-chaitanya from the unmanifested state to the manifested form.
The manifestation of brahma-chaitanya is likened to a big vessel (ghata), with individuals being smaller vessels (kumbhas) within it.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi describes Herself as maha-maya, indicating the ability to work slowly and gradually.
Opening the seventh chakra enabled Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi to manage all the chakras and deities within individuals.
The ability to feel vibrations related to different deities is presented as evidence of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi’s identity as brahma-chaitanya.
Although brahma-chaitanya and sada-shiva reside within Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi , their humanization makes it challenging for others to recognize.
Sharing the truth about Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi‘s identity is deemed difficult for modern humans to comprehend and accept.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi recalls an encounter where a boy mentioned that brahma-chaitanya is beyond feeling and non-feeling, prompting Shri Mataji to disclose the truth to a select few.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi asserts that all religions are now integrated within the concept of brahma-chaitanya, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of various religious figures.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi advises against discussing Sahaja Yogi’s identity with scientists, suggesting instead to attribute the knowledge to Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi.
It is suggested to present Sahaja Yoga as a unique method facilitated by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi , allowing individuals to witness the process of Kundalini rising firsthand.
Historically, very few individuals have been able to give realization to others, with most achieving it through personal cleansing processes.
The process of realization often involves deep purification and prayer, leading to the emergence of brahma-chaitanya within the individual.
However, in the past, individuals who achieved realization often remained in a state of isolation, with no means of communication or collective expression.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi compares the discovery of realization to discovering electricity, suggesting that without communication, others cannot benefit from it.
While some past saints and prophets attained realization, their experiences remained individual rather than collective.
The current era marks a shift towards collective realization, with t Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi indicating that the quality of individuals being developed now is akin to the disciples of past prophets.
Those who choose to immerse themselves in the collective consciousness will be well-prepared, while those who remain outside will be left behind.
Time is portrayed as a construct created by human habits, and Sahaja Yoga aims to help individuals transcend these habits and the bondage of time.
The process of shedding habits takes time, and individuals must not justify their habits if they wish to overcome them.
Sahaja Yoga is described as the last judgment, suggesting that it offers individuals the opportunity to achieve self-realization and transcendence.
Despite encountering people behaving contrary to Sahaja Yoga revelations, it’s essential to persevere and not be discouraged.
Stability in Sahaja Yoga comes from establishing the feeling or bhava for Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi in one’s heart, akin to acquiring habits.
Detachment and chitta-nirodh (stopping one’s attention) aid in stabilizing the bhava within the heart.
Conscious awareness of where one’s attention (chitta) is directed helps maintain balance and prevents it from straying.
The convolutions in the brain caused by habits and sanskaras are gradually smoothed out through Sahaja Yoga practices, allowing for greater absorption of divinity.
Scientists may find Sahaja Yoga concepts challenging to grasp, as they may be beyond conventional scientific explanations.
The formation of kundalini shakti in the triangular bone area of the spine is described, along with the refraction effect of chaitanya within the brain.
The parallelogram of forces theory from physics is applied metaphorically to explain how attention is pulled outward, leading to the formation of conditionings and ego.
The mind, formed from reactions gathered from the outer world, is influenced by the left side (conditionings) and right side (ego).
Action and reaction pass through both the agnya and vishuddhi chakras, influencing the ida and pingala nadis.
The ida nadi’s overflow forms the super-ego, while the pingala nadi’s overflow creates the ego, with the agnya chakra positioned between them.
When the kundalini enters the agnya chakra, it awakens Christ within, symbolized by the enlightenment of the agnya chakra and the simultaneous opening of the Sahasrara.
The sudden opening of the Sahasrara is described as akin to telescopes aligning, accompanied by a burst of energy.
With self-realization, deities are awakened, and chakras are nourished, leading to the integration of mind, body, and intellect.
Before realization, attention is dispersed, but upon enlightenment, it is pulled inward to the Sahasrara, aligning with the kundalini’s path.
However, due to habits, individuals may resist keeping their attention centered, analogous to resisting help while sailing.
Keeping attention centered is crucial, as it allows left and right nadis to relax, chakras to further open, and kundalini fibres to rise.
Attention then gains the quality of remaining centered, enabling individuals to perform tasks without attachment and return to the center afterward.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi , however, takes on others’ problems and suffers on their behalf, illustrating a different dynamic.
Sahaja yogis may also suffer to a lesser extent due to their connection with the Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi ‘s body.
The study of the fifth dimension of matter, bioplasma, is mentioned as a right-sided activity, currently being explored in Russia.
Each human being has their own aura, representing their changing gunas or qualities.
Bandhans are given to auras to protect them, as only matter can have an aura, making it materialistic.
The fifth dimension, microscopic or photographic, is related to aura, visible as lights in photographs.
Brahma-chaitanya emits its own light, visible to some with a weak agnya chakra.
Thoughtless awareness occurs when the kundalini crosses the agnya chakra, resulting in control and a state of doubtless awareness.
Achieving this state requires collective effort, avoiding selfishness and escapism.
The goal is not just to dissolve into the ocean but to become a cloud and nourish others with rainwater.
Surrendering to the mother, acknowledging her role in all actions, is emphasized.
Scientific minds should be introduced to Sahaja Yoga gradually, respecting their capacity to absorb knowledge.
Encountering Maya while earning money is inevitable, but it should be done with the awareness that one is earning for the greater good.
Newcomers to Sahaja Yoga often fare better when introduced by Sahaja yogis rather than directly by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi .
Everything in treatment depends on ichha or desire shakti, emphasizing the importance of having the right desires.
Wrong desires lead to mechanical and hypocritical actions, while pure desires lead to genuine growth.
Control over desire is essential for spiritual progress.
Action energy or kriya shakti has physical and mental aspects.
Physically, one must sit down and meditate to become thoughtless, while mentally, the mind should avoid nonsensical thoughts.
Maintaining the attitude of surrender, acknowledging that “Mother, you are doing everything, I do nothing,” is crucial.
Cleansing oneself before meditation is important, especially for left-sided individuals who tend to be more analytical.
Arya-samaj followers, who are typically right-sided, should focus on bhakti (devotion) and bhajan (spiritual songs) to move towards the left side.
Cleansing is done using mantras on the central chakras, with Mahakali and Mahasaraswati acting on both sides.
Mantras are chanted to raise the kundalini and improve desire energy.
Treatment of the left side involves raising the right hand and lowering it to the left, along with activating the right side using specific mantras.
Control over the kundalini’s movement is essential to prevent imbalance and ensure spiritual progress.
Without control, chanting mantras excessively can lead to imbalance and loss of spiritual focus.
