"Today’s day there are many people in the whole world who are meditating. I am thinking of all those people. You have to also think [of] all of them and know that they are part and parcel of My Being as you all are. And you are the alert ones. So, at this time in this Pūjā, you are not only doing Pūjā for yourself, for London people, but for the whole world. Not only for Sahaja Yogis who are all over, of course for them also, but in this Pūjā you are expressing yourself as Sahaja Yogis who have recognized Me, and are requesting to bless the rest of the people so that they also recognize Me as you have recognized. By this Pūjā I hope recognition will be much more clearer. By My recognition only you will recognize your Self and the whole thing will work out in a very, very beautiful manner.

What is Your prowess to be compared to?
Where can one find this beauty (of Yours) most charming, (yet) striking fear in enemies?
Compassion in heart and relentlessness in battle are seen, O Devī,
O Bestower of boons, only in You in all the three worlds!

1980-0719 Comments on the Reading from Devī Māhātmyam, before the Talk on the Meaning of Pūjā, House of Pamela Bromley, 22 College Gardens, Brighton, East Sussex, UK

"She came on this Earth many a times, to kill the people who were doing wrong things, who were trying to kill good people. She has done Her level [best] to do that, and today we are celebrating Her birthday.
You all know so much about it, that I need not tell you, but what you have to know is that She came on this Earth to save you from all kinds of troubles. For Her you were important, very important, because you were doing Devī Pūjā and so we are celebrating today this Devī Pūjā, with all our heart, because whatever ill people did to you, She came to destroy them. So today is a very great day for you to thank Her; thank Her for Her protection and for Her understanding as to what you have been tortured for.
I’m happy you are all here to celebrate Her birthday, and to be surrendered to Her so that She can always, always protect you, and give you Her blessings.
So may God bless you all, your children, your families, and that you bring great joy and protection."

2003-1012 Navarātri Pūjā (8th day after Dussehra Day), Birthday of Śhrī Gaurī, Nevele Grande Hotel, 1 Country Club Road, Town of Wawarsing (outside Ellenville, 90 kms N of Manhattan), NY, U.S.A.

"So you have already heard about the importance of today in the life of the Goddess. And that today Rāvaṇa was killed and that’s how there were celebrations. As you know very well that all the satanic forces which one had to face one at the time are all back on the stage and they are to be defeated. The greatest problem of modern times is that these satanic forces have taken a very subtle form and they enter into your psyches and into your egos. And you are the Saints, you are the bhaktas, you are the devotees of the Goddess. It’s a very delicate situation. When the confusion is there, when the Saints are attacked, the aggressor can be removed, but the Saint becomes mixed up or confused with negative forces, which is very difficult to make him see the light. And you have seen this situation very well. And the subtler you grow, the subtler they became. And they start giving you ideas which are so negative, but you cannot see them.
So the problem today is very delicate. There are no absolute Saints and there are no absolute bad people."

"...... On this day of Dussehra, let us decide that we are going to have Rām Rāj in Sahaja Yoga, where there is benevolence, there is love, compassion, security, peace, joy, discipline among ourselves."
1987-1004 Śhrī Rāma Pūjā (Dussehra Day), Maryādā Puruṣhottama and Message of Sītā's Life (Very Great Achievement Within Ourselves), Centre International, Les Avants, Switzerland
Jai Jai Raghuvīra Samartha

Auṃ Twameva sākṣhāt Śhrī Rāma sākshāt Śhrī Ādi Śhakti Mātājī Śhrī Nirmalā Devyai namo namaḥ!
O Divine Mother, You are verily Śhrī Rāma. Salutations to You!

"Today especially it’s a very great day of Dussehra we call it. This is the day when, as you know, Rāvaṇa was burned. Effigies of Rāvaṇa are burnt all over the place. When Śhrī Rāma came this was done. His victory. But in His victory, it was not that He made Sahaja Yogis or He gave Realization – No! His victory was that He killed Rāvaṇa. That was done that time for today’s preparation, for today’s happenings. It was done long time back that these days will come when people will have a proper value system of the victory of Śhrī Rāma. But it doesn’t happen, it doesn’t happen, because this Incarnation of Mātājī Nirmalā Devī is very different, is very illusive – Mahāmāyā."
1993-1024 Navarātri Pūjā (Dussehra Day), Reintrospect Yourself, Tent, Cabella Ligure, Alessandria, Italy

“Ṛiddhi siddhi ki dātri hai”: means She is the giver of siddhis.
Siddhis means by which you get powers, to give Realization to people, to cure people, to manifest all the Divinity, Siddhis.

And ṛiddhi is by which contentment, peace, joy. Means that you grow into that, ṛiddhi.

Auṃ Twameva sākṣhāt Śhrī Siddhi-datri sākṣhāt Śhrī Ādi Śhakti Mātājī Śhrī Nirmalā Devyai namo namaḥ!
O Divine Mother, You are verily Siddhi-datri, the one who is the bestower of siddhis (divine powers)
Salutations to You!

"The siddhis that people attempt to achieve are: Aṇima, Laghima, Mahima, Īśhatva, Vaśhitva, Prākāmya, Bhukti, Icchā, Prāpti, Mukti. Aṇima is to become like a small particle. Laghima is to become small, Mahima is to have a big form, Īśhatva is to create Gods out of human beings, Vaśhitva is the attraction, Prākāmya is the manifestation, Bhukti is the enjoyment, [Icchā] fulfillment of desire. Prāpti is the attainment, Mukti is the salvation. These are all the siddhis that Sahaja Yogis can have."

Āratī and the Three Great Mantras
video

"Falsehood is growing faster. Fanaticism is in the action and people are wasting their lives by going here and there.
You don’t know God has created you with compassion. You have crossed many generations to reach this stage of human beings.
You should gain something from this freedom who are we? How much labor has He made to make us, in compassion, by giving nourishment, beauty.
Human personality has reached to a stage. You must think over it. You should know who are you?
Like a soldier who knows where should he go, he knows the map and understands what he needs. Come and have your well-beings."

1979-0924 Talk to Sahaja Yogis (Marathi), Kuṇḍalinī, Śhrī Śhivaśhakti and Śhrī Viṣhṇuśhakti, Navarātri Celebrations (3rd Day), Amar Rundal Mandal Bhadar, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
"All fanaticism, all racialism, casteism, ‘all’ these things which artificially separates man from man, woman from woman, nation from nation, will all finish off as soon as you become innocent but you can’t become, by brain-washing you cannot.
By Kuṇḍalinī awakening, of course you can. But to maintain it, your progress should be inward’ and not outward."

1982-1017 Navarātri Pūjā (1st Day), Innocence and Virginity (Your Śhakti Is Your Kuṇḍalinī and She Is Virginity or A New Page Has Been Turn), Temple of All Faiths, Hampstead, London, UK
We bow and pray to You Śhrī Mahākālī, please Hear us
We pray for the destruction and removal of all the fanaticism, all racialism, casteism, which is artificially separating man from man, a woman from woman, nation from nation.
Śhrī Ādi Śhakti, please undo the evil that men have done.

Jai Śhrī Mātājī!
