Shri Mataji – No Mantras, No Rituals: Learning Sahaja Yoga from Within

"You see, in Sahaja Yoga, you are not given any mantra or anything. There’s no, nothing like giving you into a big course, like teaching you one after another any mantra, or anything, it’s not like that. What you have to know: where the Kundalini is, how it is moving, where it is, what is the charka catching and what is the mantra for that. It doesn’t take anything, hardly it takes about a week for you to understand the all thing. But gradually, as you start using it, you become proficient and you how to do it for yourself and for others. There is not much of a thing- like a child, when he comes up a little age, he starts speaking up language, because he has a built-in capacity to create sounds. And he does it. In the same way, once you get it, when you get the cool breeze in you hand, you learn it by using it, you understand it yourself, you become yourself quite proficient. And you will be amazed how fast you learn this. You don’t have to learn it just like a science book or anything, you just start learning, you can: this is charka which is catching because now, say, for example, this charka is catching [fore finger], right side. Now, there’s a mantra for this is of Shri Krishna. Say, this charka is catching [forehead], here, then there’s a mantra of Jesus Christ. Like that, you must know the mantras and the charkas. But the charkas you just know as a, absolutely, a knowledge which is built-in your nerves: you just feel it. This is- now this gentleman is saying: ” it’s hot here” [left palm]. Alright, what is that? Hot here means what? That’s the Sahasrara, at the left side. First it was, the Sahasrara on the right side. Now, on the left side it’s there. So that means there’s a mantra for that, and that one must be used. If you use that mantra, this will be cleared out. Alright? That is how you have to know. And that’s why I said it takes time for people sometimes to establish, because first you have to know it and then use it." H.H. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
