So within us lies that power, and that power is anxious to give you your second birth. That power lies as shown lies in the triangular bone of sacrum. And you can see with your naked eyes the rising of this power. It has nothing to do what nationality you come from, what sort of clothes you are wearing, what sort of hairdress you have. It has nothing to do with it. But it has to do something with your inner being. And while in the inner being there are certain problems which you have created out of your ignorance. And this power is being your Mother, your sweet loving Mother, who has been born again and again with you, knows your problems and she knows also how to correct it.

So I say that you don’t have to do anything about it. It just works. Has to work. But for human beings to understand that their evolution has to come spontaneously is very difficult, especially in the West. They think they’ll have to do something about God to fix Him up, appoint Him, pay for Him, to give you realization.

It is that absurd. Of course it makes you laugh. But we are absurd like that. We think that we can pay for it, then He’ll come down and bestow His grace upon us. We can purchase Him or we can honor Him by which He’ll give us that.

No, it is His grace. It is His own compassion that He’s going to do it, as it has been done before when we became human beings from amoeba stage. It is His love, His own ambition you can call it in a human understanding, that He wants to bestow His powers onto His own children, onto His own creation.

And as you are the flowers—human beings are the flowers of His creation—He wants to transform you into this beautiful fulfilment of your own being. These are the fruits of His creation. His garden. But all these words can sound very poetic and very enchanting, and should be so. The kundalini is awaiting within us, all the time, to help us.

I have seen to My very great sorrow that we have really hurt our kundalini and lashed her. We have really tortured her. I’ve seen big, big holes, wounds in her being. In our ego, in our useless ideas, we have really wounded our kundalini. I have seen this poor kundalini in a mess and I soothe her. I soothe her and tell her that, “You, the Mother of this child, be contented that this child has got desire to know God.”

So the first stage has to be the desire, desire to know God. If you have no desire to know God, God is not going to fall at your feet.

At least you should be matured so much that you want to know God. That is why Sahaja Yoga is a slow process. It does not work out on people who do not want it. You have to be interested in knowing yourself. This is the only thing that is required in Sahaja Yoga, that you should be ardently desirous of becoming that. Then it will happen. This is the first basic thing. You must have desire.

Then, also there are other things which are very important which I have seen. Because now I’ve been traveling and I’ve been meeting people, and I’ve been seeing that there are problems which have touched the path of kundalini also.

The path of kundalini can be quiet rugged, and kundalini may refuse to come up. And even if she comes up, out of pain she may drop out. The path of kundalini we have ruined, by so many things. And these wounds we have caused to the path, in the central path, by not remaining in the center but going to extremes. We have harmed ourselves. You have not harmed anybody else but you have harmed yourself. You have harmed your own chances. But even that can be cured because God is compassion. He is love, and He understands that you have been childish, you have been immature, and that you should be helped. But maybe that you still do not know the desire of this kundalini within you, and that you may not be on the same level as she is. Still, she will work it. All kinds of grace is given. Grace marks, as you call. It is actually the meaning of your life.
