“If you have the light you can see things. So when you see things, the light is there and light gives you the perception, gives you the vision to see things. In the same way, when you are enlightened, what happens is that these vibrations start flowing – just like the light, and in that light you can see things which are good and which are bad.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @anna_jalan

“Now the materialistic life, unless and until there is the foundation of the spiritual life, takes you to a very partial development, we can say.

Then the whole building can be built.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @sy_way
