Maheshji
says:
Spirituality
will remain in this country. India is the only country which has never attacked
any other country that is a great thing.
They
have accepted everybody.
They
gave knowledge to everybody.
They
didn't spread out any hatred, any fight.
They
have the idea:
"The world is one family".
This
motto is from India.
Mahesh
says: We are the only country that did not impose our religion upon anybody.
Every
other religion tries to win people for themselves the Moslems, the Christians
and so many religions do this but not this country.
The
Indian Saints gave knowledge to the world not religion.
Yesterday
a student asked Maheshji in the lecture in the I I T (that is the technical
university in Kanpur where Mahesh teaches):
What
is the difference between ego and religion?
So
I answered:
Religion
is a quite important thing for the human beings which separate human beings from
animals. Religion is for the human beings only for all human beings. Religion is
needed.
Religion
is not Muslim, Christian and Sanatan nothing like this.
There are ten important points of real
religion which make you a human being:
Forgiveness, kindness, no hatred, no
anger, no enmity, this way there are given ten ways, which no religion can deny.
By following the rules one can become a human being.
If
you don't follow the rules of religions you are like an animal but the Yog
science turns you to a human being.
This
is a path, this is a technique: Jnana Yog, Bhakti Yog these are not religions.
Though they consider them as such but they are no religion. They are a path.
This is the truth.
Religion
is a culture. By adopting that you can become a human being. So religion is
important.
Lord
Krishna has emphasized in the Bhagavad Gita that one should adopt the religion
in which one is born.
One
should not try to impose the religion upon anybody. The Christians turn people
into Christians; the Moslems turn people into Moslems. That is wrong.
But
if you go into the depth of the Lord's words, he uttered:
The
religion of the soul is the highest religion that means adopting religion of the
soul is highest. If you follow these words you will understand that each and
every person has the same soul. (In Sanskrit the name of the soul is Atman.)
If
we understand this there will be no hatred, no caste, no colour and no belief.
There will be oneness (unity).
I
talked 2 ½ hours about it. This was an advanced student group who do their PHD.
One
of my students in this class is Moslem and I explained the following for the
first time. There was some discussion upon Dji Had that is the sacred war of the
Moslems.
In
that context I have given one thought and nobody in the whole world knows this
fact.
As
Mohammed was asked by his disciples:
"Who
is the most sacred after God?"
He
answered three times the same way.
He
said on their first question: "MA".
Then
he said after the second question: "MA".
Then
they asked for the third time and he said again: "MA".
And
he stopped speaking.
I
told my students no Moslem knows why Mohammed said three times "MA".
Then
I explained them: Mohammed uttered exactly the power of OM.
OM
has got three Shakti (powers):
1.
The power that creates
everything.
2.
The power that feeds, controls and protects everything.
3.
The third is the power of destruction.
This
sound OM has these three divine powers.
OM
is the creator, the protector and OM has also got the power of destruction.
1.
MA (Mother Svarasvati) lets the creation grow.
2.
MA (Mother Lakshmi) controls and protects the creation.
3.
MA (Mother Durga or Mother Kali) has also the power of destruction.
The
Richies (the Saints) know the Sanatan Philosophy of India.
The
creation has all three important features: Creation, protection and destruction.
This
way, the power of OM is explained that is exactly the power of MA.
I
said before that nobody knows this. This knowledge is totally new.
