“All these mental ideas in the head that art means this and art means that, has led us to this situation that we are not going to have any more Rembrandts nor Michelangelo – finished. It’s not mental, art is never mental. It’s coming from inside, and whatever is coming from inside cannot be compared with outside our ideas.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, artwork @nicholas_tobias_
Joy
“In Nirananda state, there is no duality left – is “advaita”, is one personality. That is, you are complete integrated and the joy is not anymore dented – is complete. It hasn’t got a happiness and a sorrow aspect, but is just Joy. The Joy is not that you laugh loud, the Joy is not that ah you you’re always smiling: is the stillness, the quietude within your Self, the peace of your being, of your Spirit that asserts itself into vibrations which you feel, that when you feel that peace, you feel like light of the sun, the whole rays of that beauty spreading.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @motherearthom
Enjoyment
“Enjoy everything and that enjoyment is the blessing of the Divine. Even you can enjoy the turmoil, the torture. Everything you can enjoy if you see the point that nothing can happen to your spirit which is the real light. Whatever you may suffer, wherever you may think is troubling you is actually this silent light of the spirit makes you absolutely, perfectly joyous and you give joy to others.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @tanynix
Reality
“We have to be, very firmly standing, on reality which is auspiciousness itself. If it is reality, it must give vibrations. If it is unreal, it will not give vibrations. Like you can see, a flower which is plastic cannot give vibrations, a flower which is living gives you vibrations. To this purity of understanding one has to rise.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @karinearami
Marriage
“Marriage is meant to give joy, is meant to give cheerfulness, happiness and all the blissful things that we can think of achieving through our combination with two human beings, we can say. It’s a very close and private relationship which has to be respected. It is not to be in any way dishonored or indiscreetly squandered away. Those who cannot respect their partners in life will never be respected anywhere else. Those who ill-treat or in any way try to spoil the image of their partners are harming themselves.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @irina_kuchumovaa
Matter and the Spirit
“We form habits. With these habits, this matter sits on our head, and the Spirit, which is the vibrant thing, which is the source, which is the controlling thing, becomes dormant. This dormant force, if somehow, becomes enlightened, and our attention becomes enlightened, our attention becomes enlightened, we become a different person, we become a yogi. We become a person who is united with God.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @tanmae_buenavida
