2021 Celebrating Guru Pūrṇimā: “it was said that guru is a person who makes you meet God; he raises the Kuṇḍalinī and makes you one with God.”
"Today is the day of Guru Pūrṇimā. It is a Full Moon Day, that’s why it’s called as Pūrṇimā. The guru has to be like a Full Moon, means completely grown, completely matured.
...... Now we have to understand the importance of guru. Why should we have a guru when we have God? We’ve got Śhakti, then why should we have a guru? What is the need to have a guru? Guru means ‘the weight’, the weight. We get our weight from the magnetic forces of the gravity of the Mother Earth. So guru means gravity, a gravity in a person. Why do we need a guru? Because to know God is easy, specially in Sahaja Yoga, to be one with Him. As soon as you get your Self-realization in Sahaja Yoga, the modern Sahaja Yoga, immediately you become entitled to give Realizations to other. It was said that guru is the person who makes you meet the Divine. That’s not true, because any self-realized person in the Sahaja Yoga can raise the Kuṇḍalinī and can give Self-realization to others, immediately after they have touched the Sahasrāra or opened the Sahasrāra. But normally a realized Soul cannot do it. Any born realized Soul cannot do it on its own, it has to have authority of Me as I am today.
That’s why it was said that guru is a person who makes you meet God; he raises the Kuṇḍalinī and makes you one with God. Because in those days when the gurus were self-realized when the gurus were realized, they had the authority and power of raising the Kuṇḍalinī only after they had reached a very great state of evolution – complete purification, complete detachment."

"Today we have all gathered here for worshiping your Guru.
As you know that the Principle of Guru resides in the Void. This is the Principle which gives you balance, which gives you the gravity. The gravity that we have in the Mother Earth is expressed through your Guru Principle.
The first point of gravity is that you should have a personality, a character and the temperament that people would see that you are a personality who doesn’t get dissolved into worldly things. Is a personality which doesn’t get ruined by the skirmishes of life. Is the personality of a guru which sits down deep into his ... into his being and is not easily disturbed or dissolved by any solvent whatsoever.
This is the first Principle of the Guru, is the gravity. As I told you, it is something which cannot be dissolved into anything, it settles very deep down into your personality."

"Today is the day people, this is created by human beings and not by God, as Guru Pūrṇimā. Because as God has created days of [unclear], human beings have created days of their surrendering.
So this is the day when you have to give something to the Guru. And Guru does not have to give anything to you. This is the time you have to say what you are going to give, what you are going to do for your Guru. Because so far the Guru has been giving. If you are in meditation supposing you say we’ll meditate because Guru Pūrṇimā is there. That’s not the way the Guru Pūrṇimā is to be celebrated, because if you meditate you are taking from Me. If you try to correct yourself you are taking from Me. If you are going to get cured you are taking from Me. So now what can you do for Me? Is the point you have to think about. What can you do? Now I have sent the same question to India, [unclear] I asked them to find out what can you do for Me. You will say: ‘Mother, what can we do? After all, what are we?’ That’s a way of evading the issue. But if you really want to see, you can do a lot and that is what it is that you are My witness. You are My publicity. So today you have to take some vows. And you have to say that we are going to do these things. We are going to talk about Sahaja Yoga, we are going to propagate it, we are going to spread it and what may come we are going to surrender ourselves to Mother even if She’s, supposing, scolds us, or says anything it is for our own good and we are not going to get confused. And that’s how you have to absolutely vow that you are going to dedicate yourself to Sahaja Yoga to help others, to emancipate and to create atmosphere for the completion of this universe, of this creation for that [unclear full, full] day when you will say that the Kingdom of God has been brought on this earth. So today is not the day for Me to give, but for you."

Śhrī Mātājī: Uh in the most auspicious time, that is called as Kṛita Yuga, we all have assembled here to understand the ways and methods of establishing our Principle of a Master. Śhrī Mātājī: Kṛuta Yuga. Kṛuta Yuga means the time when you have to do something: kṛita, ‘when it was done’. So, you are the channels of that doing: doing the work of God. You are the channels of God Almighty and His Power. On one side, you have to carry the dignity, the glory, and the assumption that you are a guru, on the other side, you have to be completely surrendered to your God Almighty. All your dignity, your authority comes from Him. And the third thing is: that the way He has created this Universe and you, in a mood of play, you have to see His Play. So, a kind of mood that is cheerfulness should be really bubbling through you.

"Today we have had to spend [a] little more time than normal to get to the stage where we could really worship the Guru. When we worship our Guru, we have to know actually we are trying to awaken the Guru Principle within ourselves. Is not only that you are here to worship your Guru. You may worship many a times, maybe the vibrations would flow, maybe that you might get filled by that and you feel elevated, nourished. But this nourishment has to be retained within ourselves, so always remember then, whenever you are worshiping any principle outside, you are trying to worship your own principle within yourself.
Within us, as you know, in all of us there lies the Principle of Guru. Is very interesting to notice the Guru Principle being drawn beautifully round the Nābhī chakra. We never see any chakras connected with the Guru Principle. You see Nābhī, and around is the Bhavasāgara. So this Bhavasāgara which is the Ocean of Illusion cannot be the Guru. So, there are hidden chakras within this Bhavasāgara, within us, which are to be awakened and to be brought to light, to be manifested."

It is the Sadguru alone who instills the thought of desirelessness firmly in the intellect, and it is he alone who is able to take one beyond worldly life.
The main sign of the Sadguru is that first and foremost he should have pure Self-Knowledge and firmness of contentment in the realization of his True Form.
Over and above this, he has strong dispassion, an attitude of non-attachment to the world, and especially, his conduct is stainless with regard to his True Nature.
In addition to this going on around him there is listening to discourses on Self-Knowledge, narrations about God, and explanations of Supreme Truth at all times.
