ShantiMayi speaks on the three qualities of awakening:

1) To see the egoless-ness of all things.

2) To see the ephemeral, dreamlike quality of life.

3) To give up your split, discriminating mind.

Any of this three qualities seen spontaneously (by grace) or by process (learning) will also ignite the other qualities.

ShantiMayi speaks further about:

- The mantra Om Purnamadah... (This is perfect...)

- You are always what you are seeking.

- Silence is a very good Master.

- Karma.

- To see in difficult times that grace is in your life.

- The meaning of a spiritual name.

- Learning so much by observing your Master.

- The need for a living Master and taking one teaching.

- The great relation between Guru and disciple that leaves all sense of duality behind.

- Let nothing disturb your self-realization.

- Everything is for your awaking.

ShantiMayi talks on:

-The love that fills the sky, all of space and is always present.

-Love burns everything away.

-That what you are, is always untouched.

-How not to react in situations: just remain in the heart.

-You will have to come to a space, where nothing can disturb you.

-Seeing God in everything.

-Grace working in your life. The three kinds of grace.

It is grace that brings you into that insightful moment, when you say: "Yes, now this is my challenge", rather then: "I am beaten down again".

Grace is the one that always turns the view to something very useful.

When your self-concern has just drained out of you,

this is when grace is really blooming like a rose.

And if your speech is not connected to your heart, it is a shame".

“Rumi said: "Before I see anything I see God". It is something to put in the pocket of your heart. One has to see harmony in all things, before one can truly see. Even chaos is a part of that harmony. And even ‘that’ which we think of as ego is a part of that. That pure conscious awareness swallows up all these identities completely.” ~ShantiMayi~

ShantiMayi speaks on:

-Being truly with a Master.

-How can a disciple be certain that the Master is fully realized?

-Realizing grace in your life.

-How to find trust in God, when you don't trust others.

-Everything in life is for you, nothing is against you.

-What to do in difficult situations, handling problems and pain.

Being with me doesn't mean that you have to be at my feet all the time. With me means that you are realizing your Self Nature and this is why you are here. Constantly realizing that what you really wish to understand is your true nature and that this is already there. That this doesn't have to be developed or sought after, you can't attain it. To truly be with the Master means to truly be with one's Self, one's own Master, one's inner Guru. One who is developing... towards his Mastership, not just hanging around.

In February 1998, ShantiMayi invited the Sacha Sangha to a pilgrimage through the Indian Himalayas. On this DVD, you may travel along and share these precious steps.

You will be introduced to ancient places. In India, sacred places are often located near the holy river Ganges like Rishikesh and Haridwar . Locations where two rivers meet, like in Devaprayag and Rudraprayag, are especially strong and worshipped.

In the midst of the Garhwal Himalayas we will also visit some famous temples and a have a satsang with ShantiMayi.

ShantiMayi, a spiritual teacher born in America, attracts students from all over the world. ShantiMayi travels ceaselessly, and she stays also with Her Master Maharajji in Sacha Dham, India, where this interview takes place. ShantiMayi brings us to an embrace of all Ways to God.

".....Some say (when referring to realization) that there is nothing to be done. You can work on it or not... However, as long as you are troubled or suffering a sense of separation, you remain attached to your opinions and/or projections.

If you continue to harbor resentment and/or expectation, if you compare yourself with others... then... there is something you can do to bring the light of awareness into cloudy uncertain areas of your life”

In this DVD ShantiMayi is interviewed by Kali, and many issues are covered such as: gradual or direct awakening, devotion, wisdom, Buddhism & Hinduism or why any "ism"?

The three visible and invisible qualities, which seem to bring forth the appearance, the illusion, we call life. Why do we say that life is an illusion? Because it has the characteristic of being created, maintained and destroyed in all of its aspects eternally. It is the Shiva quality in us that begins to question: "Who am I, really? Is there something which is eternal within me?" It is the Shiva in all of us, that delivers us (by way of grace and unconditional love) into the silent and subtle realization that we are in essence, what we are searching for.

Shiva is the destroyer, the destroyer of ignorance.

Shakti, Shiva's consort, is the dance of life, she is the emergence, the form and movement, she is the energy, the illusion itself. Shiva and Shakti are eternally intertwined, inseparable, in each of us, as the movement of experience and the silent witness.

Vishnu is the maintainer of life, he is the abode of prayer. It is Vishnu that gives *illusion the feeling of *reality.

When the Gayatri Mantra is uttered it rests between Vishnu and Shiva. "Ignite the fire of realization", that all may know that our true nature is beyond the illusion and within the experience at once.

ShantiMayi

* The Yogic meaning of illusion is "impermanence".

* The Yogic meaning of reality is "stable and unchanging".

Finding an Enlightened Master is a miracle. This miracle becomes even greater when that Master ShantiMayi lives with her own Guru, Swami Hans Raj Maharajji, in Rishikesh India. Experiencing her deep love for him and for us is a great blessing. But as Maharajji on his turn starts speaking and singing about his own master Sacha Baba, it is like two mirrors reflecting each other: eternity is reflected.

This video shows all the dimensions of the mystery of the Master - disciple relation. What are the signs of a True Master, who is your Guru and who is not? It also enlightens the art of surrender.

This video shows the Ganga in different moods as well as the people living with Her.

“Ganga has a very special place on the earth.

She has been worshipped for hundreds of thousands of years.

Anything that gets this kind of attention maintains a holiness.

She looks like a river, but she is not. She is a Goddess.

I give prayers to Ganga requesting that she supports

everything that I do (for the whole planet).

And she says every time: "yes, yes, yes, yes”.

So what does it mean to worship a river or the sun or the moon? Well it just means that you are closer and closer to God, inside yourself. Because everything is God anyhow”.

-The video begins with an interview with Hans Raj Maharajji, ShantiMayi’s Master, in Sacha Dham Ashram, Rishikesh, India. Maharajji speaks about how He met his Master, and what happened from that on. He also speaks about the essence of ShantiMayi’s work for the world at large.

-ShantiMayi speaks about the new phase of her work, and we will follow her to several places such as Terre de Sacha, Her ashram in France; we will be chanting in the ancient abbey of Serrabonne and the cathar castle of Peyrepertuse, all in the French Pyrenees. We will follow ShantiMayi to La Gomera (Canary islands) and make a boat trip to the dolphins.

-Dharmsala (India): visit to His Holiness the Dalai Lama

-Glastonbury (England): tree planting and a stop at a crop circle.

"It's a very special time on our planet.

Many people feel that something is occurring in the world...a change a big change. We are standing at the edge of a cliff and either we are going to fly or we will just fall off.

A transformation of consciousness is necessary and is occurring.

The foundation of this transformation of consciousness is the Gayatri Mantra.

We know this time to be difficult and dark and yet it is a time of awakening on earth, a grand opportunity to touch ourselves in a way like we have never touched ourselves before as a true and beneficial humanity, as a real global family.

ShantiMayi speaks about basic questions as:

-Why do we need a (living) master?

-What is the meaning of a spiritual name? –

-What is a Mantra?

Aim right in the Centre of the Eye.

The blessings of the Great Beings, who are now disembodied are always supporting and guiding every being who cares to discover their heart of hearts .

Grace is ever flowing from those Masters who have once touched the earth,

and have touched your heart.

Those graceful blessings never, never cease to flow.

They knew themselves to be eternal.

They know you to be eternal.

and so it is.
