Experiential Treatise - Sahaja Yogi Phadke- Introduction

 Experiential Treatise - Sahaja Yogi Phadke- Introduction

Originally an atheist, Phadke's spiritual journey began in December 1972 when a deaf student brought him a newspaper clipping about Shri Mataji. Curious, he attended Her program and was deeply moved by Her explanation of the subtle system. 


Though hesitant at first, he eventually received realization from Shri Mataji after 15 days of regular meditation. Struggling to feel vibrations, he followed Her advice to meditate before Her photograph and soon began experiencing it. Encouraged by his dedication, Shri Mataji invited him to Her home for deeper learning and guided him personally. She also inspired him to give realization to his deaf students, marking the beginning of his full commitment to Sahaja Yoga.

Sri Baba Mama brother of Shree Mataji, "My Memoirs"

 An Extract from the book written by Sri Baba Mama brother of Shree Mataji, "My Memoirs" :  In August 1942, my father was in jail and the family was under financial stress. At such a juncture, Shri Mataji, who was studying in the Science College, decided to stop Her college on the 15th of August, our Independence Day, by picketing in front of the gate. My mother, though very conservative, did not object to Her political activity. As a protest, Shri Mataji decided to picket in front of Her college and stop all the students who were trying to enter.  The Principal of the college was a good friend of the family, but he got orders from the British authorities to rusticate anybody who picketed or disobeyed the college rules. Mr. Krishnamurti, who was vice principal, was asked to go and persuade Shri Mataji to stop and to say that if She did not stop picketing, She would be given a college-leaving certificate. In those days, rustication meant that you could not seek admission i...

Gagangiri Maharaj and his meeting with Shri Mataji

 सब को दुआ देना... यह प्रसिद्ध सहज योग भजन 'सबको दुआ देना' की सुंदर और प्रेरणादायक कहानी है। गगनगिरी महाराज नाथ संप्रदाय के एक महान हठ योगी थे। वे चालुक्य सम्राट पुलकेशिन प्रथम के वंशज थे। छोटी उम्र में ही घर छोड़ने के बाद, वे शीघ्र ही नाथ संप्रदाय के संपर्क में आ गए। नाथ संप्रदाय के योगियों के साथ वे बत्तीस शिराळा (महाराष्ट्र) आए और वहीं उन्हें नाथ संप्रदाय की दीक्षा प्राप्त हुई। उन्होंने कई वर्षों तक छाती तक गहरे पानी में खड़े रहकर कठोर तपस्या की। पानी में मछलियों ने उनके पैरों का एक बड़ा हिस्सा खा लिया, लेकिन वे अपनी तपस्या में अविचल बने रहे। लगभग 1975-1977 के दौरान, श्री माताजी निर्मला देवी उनसे मिलने गगन बावड ा के किले पर गईं। किले पर चढ़ते समय बहुत तेज बारिश होने लगी और वे पूरी तरह भीग गईं। जब वे किले पर पहुँचीं, तो महाराज बहुत क्रोधित थे। वे बोले, “माँ, आपने मुझे बारिश क्यों नहीं रोकने दी? क्या यह मेरे अहंकार की परीक्षा थी?” श्री माताजी मुस्कुराईं और कहा, “मुझे पता था कि आप मेरे लिए एक साड़ी लाए हैं, और यह भी पता था कि हम संन्यासियों द्वारा दी गई साड़ी स्वीकार नहीं कर सक...

Interesting story about the importance of foot soak

*Interesting story about the importance of foot soak* *Walking in the streets of Rome (Recollections - Volume 2)* In 1982 Shri Mataji went to Rome to hold some public meetings, and I decided I would jump on a train and travel from London to help. It so happened that I was the only English person to go and I was very blessed and honoured to be invited to stay in the very same flat as Shri Mataji, and on several occasions we went shopping for marble and pictures etc. On one occasion whilst walking through the cobbled streets of Rome Shri Mataji’s steps became very laboured, as though She was dragging a heavy weight. We wondered what could be the cause of this obvious discomfort to our Holy Mother.  She explained that there were hundreds of souls hanging onto Her legs begging for redemption. She also told us that it is for this same reason that we the Sahaja Yogis feel heavy at the end of the day. When we go out in our daily lives many souls who are unable to take a birth (they are st...
