How To Reach a Higher State Of Awareness in Sahajyog
Then another awareness that comes to you is thoughtless awareness. The thoughts rise, fall, again rise, then fall, again rise and then fall. And these thoughts are coming either from the past or from the future.
Now if I say you be in the present, you cannot. In between these thoughts, there is a small space. When this Kundalini rises, She suppress these thoughts.
And you are in complete silence and peace. If you want to think, you can think. But if you don’t want to think, you can be in thoughtless awareness, it is called as Nirvichara samadhi in sanskrit language.
At this stage, when you are thoughtless, you become the witness, witness of the whole drama going on. You are no more in the problems, you are out of it, so you can solve your problems very easily.
And also there is God Almighty, you enter into His Kingdom. And the bliss of Divine Love starts looking after you, protecting you . ( Brussels, Belgium – July 1993 )
Seeker: What happened when you go into a sudden silence where you go into a void which is very sweet, does it mean that all your chakras are in balance?
Shri Mataji: Of course it means, silence should be there and when you feel the silence the Kundalini has gone beyond the Agnya Chakra. But there could be another way of getting silence
which is a very dangerous thing like when you get possessed also. You can’t think. So there is a very small line one should understand. But if you say you feel very sweet and happy and thoughtless, then that’s very good.
Seeker: It doesn’t stay very long.
Shri Mataji: That will after the Kundalini… The thought rises and falls off, another thought rises and falls off. In between the thoughts there is some space. This space sometimes you reach and the thoughts are tired, they get elongated and that thing is there.
This is the present. The central part is the present and when the Kundalini rises, She makes this space expand and you are in complete silence and, like me, I am always in silence .
