“Through meditation, we’ll grow in our awareness, in our new personality, in our strengthened personality. Meditation is the only way we can grow, and then no one can destroy you, because you are all protected by the Divine Love.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @sy_way

“Now this brain is as you know, is supported by the five elements, they all are in this brain and if you can somehow or other bring Me in that brain, somehow or other, by telling your brain, now, not to disturb you any more, you’ll be amazed that immediately the whole system will start working like a dynamo. It will be such a sensitive thing, you don’t have worry about anything, don’t have to think about anything.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi

“In marriage we confirm that the problem is over now, we have finished with the choices we had, and now we are going to settle down with one person. And the sharing of life, in even absolutely private life, is with one person. So you have to be very much harmonized with that person, and in complete understanding and loyalties to each other, one has to develop.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @anna_jalan

“Now it is very simple to understand if you understand how we sprout a seed, which is a living process. When you sow the seed into the Mother Earth, the Mother Earth has the capacity to sprout the seed. How much do you pay to the Mother Earth? How much to you exercise about it? It is all spontaneous, it’s sahaj. So this spontaneity is the sign of life’s force.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @jahnnyjahnjahns

“…when this thinking stops, you are above the thoughts. I would say to give it a similitude, that the waves of thought come and go away. Another thought comes and goes away. We are jumping on the cusp of the thought all the time. Supposing we can just get in the center of the thought, that is the present. If we can, could stop at the present moment, then we are not worried about the thoughts. Like the waves of water, if you are in the waves, you are frightened of that. But supposing you are in a boat then you can see the waves and enjoy them. In the same way what happens to you that you jump up to a higher state of existence through which you see the thoughts if you want, you don’t want to see you can, you need not see. Now the thoughts that you see also, are very wide and deeper where you get inspirations.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @cristina_malaguti

“…in meditative mood you are alone. No one exists there, you alone. And once you enter into that Ocean then the whole world becomes your family, the whole world is your own manifestation, all the children become your children and you treat all people with equal understanding.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
