First time with Shri Mataji

I love reminiscing these beautiful memories with Shri Mataji.  Though not many, it was enough to last me a life time.  Some past are worthy of remembering while some past need to be ditch immediately.  

I remembered the first time I got the chance to be near to Shri Mataji.  It was in 2001, Christmas Puja in Ganapatipule. 

After the puja, the norm was to offer a present to Shri Mataji.  Each country representatives would get a chance to go on stage to offer.  

I was hoping very hard that I would be selected to represent Malaysia.  But, I was very new and young.  Anyhow, 2 other Malaysian yogis were selected in the last minute.  I remembered telling the yogini to please tie her hair up as it was very messy and not appropriate to be in front of Shri Mataji.  Deep in my heart, I was envying her lucky chance and I said in my heart, "If only I get the chance to go on stage, that experience would be enough to last me a life time."

Finally, they went and queued.  After some time, after many countries went and came back, suddenly I saw one of my Indian rakhi brother, came to me and told me to quickly get ready to offer the International Yuva Shakti gift.  I was surprised.  What International Yuva Shakti gift?  I didn't prepare any gift.  He said they have already prepared.  Just need to go on stage to present.

I quickly left the terrace seats and met him at the foot of the stage.  He explained briefly and told me to hurry up.  I went to the side of the stage and was given a pillow to offer.  I walked up and did my pranam.  What I saw on stage was a true maya that day.  Shri Mataji was in Shri Mahamaya form.  Truly.  It is difficult to explain here.  But that day, She was not the same person we saw earlier when She gave Her speech.  It was a completely different form.

I remembered offering the gift to Her very quickly.  She didn't look at me.  After leaving the stage, I was wondering to myself, who is that?  And I kept asking this question for some time until I realised, I was on stage with Shri Mahamaya.

Anyhow, my desire to be near Her was fulfilled immediately.  Just a thought and voila!  That was enough to last me a lifetime.  And years later, I was blessed to be near Her again and again.

Matka pot treatment - Night 1

Image
I started the matka pot treatment last night.  Been feeling a lot of left agnya catch lately, so thought that it is high time to do a matka pot treatment.  Here is what we need: 7 limes (I heard in Belgium, they used 7 lemons, so the pot that they used is so big and they have a hard time trying to dispose the pot after the 7 nights).  Cut the top of the limes to expose a bit of the flesh. 7 chillies.  Remove the top of the chillies (I don't know what you call, stem or stalk).  I used small chillies so that they can fit into the matka pot. 1 matka pot (here in Malaysia we used claypot that they cooked claypot rice, glazed inside so that it will not leak) Vibrated water So, you put everything into the pot and vibrate in front of Shri Mataji's photo.  Pray that the matka pot will absorb all the catches and negativities.  Then place it on the left side of the bed.  I put it under the bed but you can also put it on a side table on your left side.  Just be carefu

Information for pregnant Sahaja Yoginis

I have decided to gather all information for pregnant Sahaja Yoginis here.  This is probably not conclusive, so please feel free to add on if you have anymore inputs.  To read more about it, please go to amruta.org.   I guess the experience varies from individual to individual.  But I was very sensitive to vibrations and negativity when I was in my first trimester.  So much so that sometimes I have to do 2-3 times footsoak in a row in order to feel better.  But it gets better in the second trimester. As for havan, I was told that pregnant ladies can attend havan but have to sit far from the fire and don't sit too long.  This was advice by the Vashi doctors.  But my own experience, in which I attended one havan, I didn't feel good after that.  It's just my personal feelings about it as I was ultra-sensitive.  But I read some yoginis wrote that pregnant ladies should not attend havan altogether.  So, it really depends.  I guess you could always check vibrations to find

Sahaja Yoga has cured me - Part 1

Image
I was reading back my old posts and I realised that I have not posted even once on how Sahaja Yoga has helped me although I keep saying that it has.  How can I forget the miracles that it has brought me and has a big effect on my life. Between 2004-2006 (I forgot exactly which year it happened), one night after my part-time class, I came back late.  I had skipped dinner as I was late for class.  So after class, I just stopped at McD and bought myself some french fries.  I was not hungry anymore.  So I came back home and just drank a glass of cold milk.  I went to sleep after the meal. The next day as usual I went to work.  My stomach was already not feeling so well.  I have lost appetite and again didn't eat proper breakfast and lunch.   I was already tasting sourness in my mouth but I just ignored it.  Then I was going to meet a friend for dinner.  While driving to her place, I drank a lot of water.  That was what triggered the beginning of my nightmare (short nightmare).
