Through the process of Self Realisation, an individual’s Kundalini is awakened to enable true meditation. Below are some quotes from Shri Mataji (the founder) describing the significance of Self Realisation.
‘Self Realisation is the first encounter with reality.’
‘Blossom time has come and many ancient seekers are today getting their Self Realisation.’
‘Now the stage today is to know that Self Realisation gives you experiences and then your faith is established. Not blind but open enlightened faith.’
‘Self Realisation makes us humble…replace temper with compassion…the more innocent you are, the more blissful you will be.’
‘…the self-knowledge that I am talking about is concrete, verifiable and is tangible like science itself and completely understandable in rational terms.’
‘The truth which can be actualized after Self Realisation is that you are not this body, this mind, this conditioning from the past, this ego, these emotions, but that you are the Pure Spirit.’
‘Only after Self Realisation, and only then, is there a direct experience of the Spirit. It then manifests its powers in the human personality, and it’s light enlightens the consciousness into a new awareness. The divine intelligence of the Spirit radiates on all sides.’
‘After Self Realisation it is easy to perceive the truth that all these religions were born on the same tree of spirituality, but that those in charge of each religion plucked the flowers from the living source and are now fighting each other with the dead flowers of merely partial truths.’
