Divine Friends,
Welcome to Skanda Vale, I love seeing you because you are all
on that journey of discovering your divinity. Divine friends,
you are born for a reason, not just to acquire wealth and
prosperity, but to come to know God. Yes, through your work and
life’s hardships you are paying karma. It’s not easy; from one
cycle of birth to another, as you pay your karma, you are also
learning detachment and mastering your five gunas, your sense
objects.

Divine Friends, God is there in you, as your paramatma,
which is screaming to integrate with the totality of God. But
this journey is so difficult because of your attachments to the
world of illusion – Mahamaya - preventing you from discovering
your own divinity. You look at those on that journey towards
oneness with God, swamis, yogis, great saints as different, but
you are a saint yourself, that saintliness is in you obscured by
worldly preoccupations. Slowly but steadily learn to free
yourself from those attachments. One day you will wake up in the
morning and say, “Oh this is quite mad, what am I working for?
What are these rainbows I am chasing in my life?” But that is
something you must live through and learn. You will never learn
unless you give yourself time. Don’t suddenly say, “I’m going to
give it all up.” No, that means you still want it. Learn to work
through and understand your desires and attachments, gradually
freeing yourself from Mahamaya.
Don’t believe in God, but experience. I know Devi very, very
well, I couldn’t do anything without Her. Divine Friends, God
sent me many years ago to the Western world to establish Dharma
and bring people of all faiths together to work and worship. One
of the conditions that He set out very clearly was never to take
money from people. The Lord said: “I will provide all that you
need.” He sent me to the places that had been devastated during
the war, and I saw the same sort of murder, pillage and
displeasure amongst humanity that we are seeing today. From the
Middle East and throughout Europe, there were people waiting to
greet me, (people whom I’d never met before), all arranged by
the Lord. As I travelled I quietly observed and understood the
struggle of many, many people working very hard and paying their
karma
Divine Friends, you are afraid to pay your karma and come to
know God! All the time you are looking over your shoulder
wondering if you have offended God and with that fear you don’t
want to approach the Lord or Devi. No, that is exactly when you
need to talk to God. Do you realise, not a leaf falls from a
tree without Devi knowing it, She knows everything, for She is
Maha Shakti, energy of the universe. During the pooja, whilst
sitting on this chair, I am collecting that energy, chi, the
energy of Devi and bringing it here so that you can drink and
grow in Her Divine consciousness. You can do it too. Don’t think
it is an exclusive club that you have no access to. Oh Divine
Friends, you are divine by nature. The purpose of your birth is
to proceed on this hazardous journey and constantly relate to
God. It is only through this relationship that the bad habits of
anger, hatred, envy, viciousness will subside within your being.
But you have to work hard, go and talk to Devi, the more you
talk to Her, the more you relate, the easier it becomes to
conquer your problems and change. All of you have an Ishta
Devata (an aspect of God you love more than any other). Relate
everything to that Ishta Devata, live like that aspect and
become integrated, do not be afraid to identify with it, because
that divinity is within. Look at yourself in the mirror, don’t
say,” What a horrible, ugly human being I am”. You are beautiful
inside. Bring that beauty out, see that aspect manifest and one
day you will begin to realise that your purpose is to ultimately
be part of the nature of God. God is so beautiful.
Look at the stars, they are the diadem of the Lord, Skanda
Vale is also part of that nature. Each of the three Temples and
every single moorthi that has come to reside here has been
established and sent by God Himself enabling us to do His work.
I didn’t plan these buildings, I didn’t go shopping for moorthis.
That is what people are doing outside and calling it a Temple.
The spirit of God Himself must establish and dwell in a Temple
and that’s why, like precious jewels, all of these monks and
nuns, from all over the world, have given up their entire lives
(engineers, accountants, teachers), to be with God. To serve God
without condition, without pay. Would you do that? Oh no, you
wouldn’t do that and that is the difference. They don’t even
wait for a thank you, most often being told off and sworn at – I
don’t swear do I? No, I am very kind to all the Brothers and
Sisters. I push them to the limit for it is only with
difficulties and pressure in your life that you will change and
discover your divinity. When people see me coming within the
Community, I can hear them saying, “Uh, Uh, what’s going to
happen now.” Because Mother has sent me, sent me to stir things
up amongst my members because She wants them to serve you
properly. You in turn must serve all your family and loved ones.
There was a beautiful way people greeted each other in ancient
times, “Namo Narayana”. The Lord in you I greet. Return back to
the ancient customs and traditions we have had for thousands of
years, not the values of Tony Blair, he talks a whole load of
bunkum. What values has he got, liar, pick-pocket, cheat!?
Satya Swaroopini, Mother is so clear in Her mind that you
can’t kill anybody. The law of God is absolute. You should never
cause injury or unkindness to anybody in your life. For the law
of karma will prevail – you will have to pay that karma. There
is no getting away from that. Divine Friends, you know America
is suffering the consequences of George Bush’s killing and, make
no mistake, we are also going to carry that karma, Maha Karma,
for we bombed Iraq, carpet bombing. Do you know what that meant,
they enjoyed sitting in 10 Downing Street and Washington while a
nation was decimated. Thousands and thousands of people were
killed.
Divine Friends, I am not a politician, but I am a
representative of the Divine and I have to remind all of you not
to commit karma. If you want to know God you have to change
course. Your destiny is to realise the Divine. Mother is Maha
Shakti, She is the energy of the universe, the five elements
fire, water, wind, earth and ether. All of them will come down
on you if you break the law of God, Her law. For She sustains
the world, She sustains you, me and the whole universe – but She
can change it just by the shake of Her hand. I have seen Her and
during the first years of Her coming to visit me in my room I
was absolutely terrified, I had no walls, no roof, She
disintegrated me, played with me and put me back together and
when I told Mother “I’m just a human being.” She said “I made
you and am going to do what I want.” I am Her child and you also
are Her child. No difference.
Divine Friends, don’t wait till you are old, feeble and “ga …
ga …” to go to God. Now is the moment to get Her Shakti. You
think I can do all these things at the age of 76. I have a
wonderful time because every time I get up in the morning She
gives me Shakti telling me to go and do that, drive down, look
over there. I am here to serve you, you too can acquire such
Grace from Her. For She is Maha Shakti and you are part of Her
nature, don’t ever feel separate. She is Mother of mothers and
that is why I sung to Parvati for She is your Mother.
Bless you
Guruji |
