人的创造及完成
1979年2月1日
德里大学甘地礼堂
在这次演讲,我要谈创造的历程。我会从人类还是亚米巴虫的时候开始讲起。任何具有开放心灵的科学家都可看见,他们知道在这个宇宙的特别创造中,同时创造了母亲大地(Mother Earth)。
大约在五百万年以前,母亲大地还是气体状态,之后便凝聚及冷却下来。是如何能够冷却下来,是如何能够冷却到这个程度呢?科学家只知道这是事实,但由于他们的限制,却找不到原因。为甚么事情是这样发生的呢?是如何开始的呢?我们很容易说没有神,但不设想神,便很难解释许多事情。例如,在此期宇宙内,人类被创造出来的时间是那么短,没有其他原因可以解释这个现象。
如果你说那是机会率,我们大可看看要创造一个活的细胞,要通过多少的排列和组合。打个比方,在试管里有五十粒红药丸,有五十粒白药丸,红的都在底下,白的都在上面,现在我们把它摇匀,如果把它们摇到恢复原来的样子,我们要摇多少次才足够呢?他们发现了一条方程式,是n的许多次方。根据这条方程式,如果设想人类是碰巧被创造出来的,那差不多是完全没有可能,因为所花的时间实在太短了,那样短的时间,至多只能做出一些有生命的细胞。
人类的身体这样复杂,组织得这样完美,很难令人相信只是背后有谁在玩骰子。背后一定是有些科学造就这些工作,一定要有一些特别的人在工作,这样的创造才成为可能。我的意思是说,如果没有一个团体,没有思考,没有计划,没有具有力量的人物,即那至高的神在背后,是没有可能完成这项工作的。
科学当然有它的限度,我们不能发现创造是如何发生的。但我们亦看见科学也达到了一定的成果,他们用的方法,也许有点像到目前为止,促进着进化过程的方法。
我还是个中学生的时候,我从未想过人类有一天可以到达月球,当时没有人会相信。如果有谁这样说,人们也会笑他作白日梦。甚至今天你告诉我祖母,她也不会相信。她会认为你只是在说故事。但毫无疑问,今天我们的确到达了月球。
他们用的是个很奇妙的方法,把火箭分为五节,连接在一起。第一节火箭,即最底下那节首先引爆,推动其余四节。当第二节火箭引爆时,便比原先加速了许多倍,加速之快,是原先的许多许多倍。然后第三节引爆,然后第四节,然后第五节,第五节火箭中才是那个太空仓。经过这一连串的引爆,通过这种内在的机制,我们成功地令宇宙飞船达到很高的速度。
我们的进化也是这样子发生的。我们通过无意识得到发射火箭的这个念头,我们甚至不知道进化也是这样的。我们知道如何利用这个方法,却不知道怎样把它和进化拉上关系。同样地,人类是从阿米巴虫来的,而阿米巴虫则是从各种元素来的。同样我们可以说人类的创造有五个阶段。第一阶段是物质的存有(Being),然后在物质存有里面安放情感的存有。在情感的存有里面再安放灵性的存有,然后在灵性的存有中安放我们的灵,或称我们的注意力。
我们可以说,灵量便是那推动的力量,是那引爆的力量。灵量在一切事物之中,但最有效,最好,最高的状态却是在人的身体当中。灵量存在于每个人之中,这个力量能使万物进化,例如从炭原子进化到阿米巴虫,从阿米巴虫进化到动物界,再从动物界进化到人类的阶段。甚至在各种元素里面,灵量也存在,因为元素也是会进化的。我们不知道它们如何进化,但在大自然里却是这样,这些元素改变它们的形状和质量,成为不同的元素。我们对此一无所知,因为我们无法量度这些改变。动物界也是会改变的,海洋里的鱼类,有许多变成爬虫类;从爬虫类,许多变成哺乳类;从哺乳类,许多变成猿猴,然后再变成人类。这些事情都在发生,有多少物种被毁灭了,有多少存留,有多少改变了形状,没有人留下任何纪录。
今天我们担心人口问题,也许是由于许多动物都变成了人类。你们可以看见其后果,你看那些人的行为,你可以肯定一定是有许多动物具有人的形状,他们还要经历许多进化,才能明白人类生命的价值。人类内在也有他的进化。
据科学家说,我们成为人类已经有一万四千年,我们通过自由,作出了内在的发展。只有人类才有自由让自己进化,明白甚么是对是错。人类被赋予这个自由,因为如果没有自由,他们便不能更进一步。举个例说,如果你在学校里学习,他们会叫你背诵乘数表2×10=20。你只是要背熟它,不会问为甚么,只是这样继续下去。但当你达到一定的教育水平,你便被给予自由去讨论这些问题,为甚么2×10=20?因为这时你已经到达一定的发展阶段,在这个阶段,你会被给予自由去发现答案。这便是你们发展的方式,通过这种发展,你才可以跟上其他进化上来的人,进化的过程便是这样。
到目前为止,你们不能感到自己是从阿米巴虫进化到这个阶段的,你们不知道自己如何变成人类,你们认为这是理所当然的。且看你们的眼睛,多么复杂,如果你深入研究,便会惊讶这是如何创造出来的。只要你们用针刺手指一下,立即便会有条件反射。一切都造得那样好,安排得那样好,这么快,这么有效,我们会为这人类的身体感到惊奇。但你看这些人类,他们现在都这样没有效率。上个月我拍了四封电报给我女儿,今天她说只收到了一封。
人类被赋予自由去了解,去发展他们的效率,去获得这个宇宙创造者的终极知识和力量,此所以灵量只被安放在人体之中,尽管灵量也以另外的形式在一切事物中存在。但只有在人类,灵量才被放在三角骨当中,成一沉睡的状态,去推动人类作最后一次的跃进,进入未知的界域。这个灵量是存在的,就在那里。
但如果我说在这些创造物当中,谁首先被创造,这是很有趣的问题,但可能不符合科学家的心态。我现在要说的很大程度上超越科学,在地上任何事物被创造以前,神性(Holiness)首先被创造,我们称之为纯真(Pavitrata)。格涅沙(Sri Ganesha)正是那个神性中的神祇,神创造这个神圣来保护这个创造。这个神圣的氛围,是用来保护所有人和被创造物,否则一切事情都不能发生。设想一下,如果其中一个海洋深多10呎,整个地球的平衡便会跨掉。再设想一下地球转动的速度,地球以极高速度有规律地围绕着太阳旋转,不是完全圆形的运动,而是你们知道那种特别的轨迹。这样才能产生日与夜,早上工作,晚上休息。只有通过最早创造出来的神性,地球才能保持平衡和特定的温度。
现在人类的愚蠢正向着这神性挑战。人类以为可以向神挑战,这是人类知觉的特征。如果人类能够升得更高,感觉到神在每一样事物中跳动,他们就不会这样了。但人类在达到这个完美的阶段以前,他们已经开始谈论神。谁人能够挑战这些愚蠢的人的权柄呢?他们不希望达到完美,只喜欢夸夸其谈。
那神性无所不在的力量是能够纠正一切的,能够调合,能够爱,能够为你组织一切,让你得到醒觉。因此你们要明白,灵量升起是最重要的事情,提升灵量是知道你自己的灵体的唯一方法,这也是进化历程中最重大的事件。这就好像先铺平花园,然后种树,然后树上开出花朵,现在适当的时刻来临了,果实要生长出来。这是最重要的事,是要这样发生的,所有真理的追求者都知道这一点。
追求真理的问题是,你要以所有的谦卑来追求它。没有人能催眠甚么人,叫他们追求真理,你们要以全部的知觉,全部的尊严,去获得真理。但这不是作一次演讲,让你们去了解,也不是那些荒谬的人所作的洗脑。这是实际发生的,你到了可以实现这个知觉的阶段,你可以发展出集体的意识,这是可以在你内在真正地发生的。
你们现在是人类,你们知道人类这个阶段可以拥有许多事物,例如你们可以知觉到比动物更多的东西。动物没有甚么大学,但人类有。动物不明白甚么是花园,动物不明白甚么是污秽,也不明白甚么是美,这一切都是你们有的,你成为人类以后,便会逐步加深。
当你的灵量被唤醒,你便变成了超人类,你可以知道自己的内在系统,也可以知道他人的内在系统。这便是集体意识,就便是霎哈嘉瑜伽的精粹。霎哈嘉是自然的系统,整个创造也是自然而然的。「Sah」的意思是「与」,「Ja」的意思是「生」,Sahaja的意思是「与生俱来」。一切事物都一早安放在你们之中,就好像是一颗种子那样。
如果你们观察一颗种子,它有胚芽可以发育,一粒种子具有变成大树的能力,整棵树都在种子之中。同样地在人类,他可以变成甚么,整个机制都已经安放在身体之中。你们身体里有些隐藏的流动力量,我会解释给你们听,你们身体之中有些甚么力量。我要说你们就好像是计算机的终端机,你们已经是一些计算机的终端机,唯一要做的是连接到总机那里去。如果你们能连接到总机,整部计算机便能工作,但这只是机器运作的方式。你们是人类,你们懂得甚么是爱,我说的是上天的神性,是神的爱;这个爱创造了你,也使你希望知道神。通过科学你们是不能知道神的。每个科学家都需要爱,也许爱他的子女,也许爱他的马匹,终归来说他知道甚么是爱,爱是一切这些力量的总合,是一切爱的来源。
科学只处理一个非常小的部分,我会告诉你们那一部分的力量和我们的物质身体有关,其中有多少科学家是知道的。你会很惊奇,如果知识是个海洋,科学家只知道其中的一滴,要知道整个海洋,那一滴要溶入整个海洋当中。但滴水却不能通过自己的努力变成汪洋;汪洋却要销溶这些点滴,这是海洋的工作。这项创造的工作要完成,而最美丽的创造物便是人类。人类必须寻求怎样完成他们自己,如果找不到,那无论他做甚么,都不能达到完美的境界。除非完成了这项工作,否则神是不会停下来的。经过千万年才到了这个完成的时候,如果这个工作要由我来做,如果我便是那个要提升你们灵量的人,为甚么你们要有异议呢?感谢神,我不是个科学家,否则我会终身制造原子弹。感谢神,我不是个心理学家,否则我会变得疯癫,听那些疯疯癫癫的人说话。感谢神,我不是个政客,你们也知道政客是怎样的。
感谢神,我甚么也不是,我只是你们的母亲,我绝对的关心你们终极的好处,而不是那些表面的东西。
We’ll have the meditation now – that’s more important than any one of these lectures. I’ve already given 84 tapes to these London people – I’ve been speaking and speaking, every day two to three lectures. Best thing is to have it. Now some of you who do not get it should not get upset with Me. If you do not get it, there is nothing to worry. If you get it, well and good. If you don’t get it, you’ll get it this evening, if not tomorrow. It is a very subtle happening: should happen to you. If it happens, immediately you’ll find the relaxation will come. But the best thing that happens to you is first of all is your physical being is absolutely [different?]
Now this lady now has come here with a very serious disease. If she had come to Me earlier – [Shri Mataji speaks in Hindi to someone]... So if this lady had come to Me at the end, she would never have [UNCLEAR]. If she had come to Me and got her realization, she would have been alright today. But she said she did not know about it. What’s the use of getting ill and then coming to Me, asking for My blessing and all sorts of things instead of getting your realization or in keeping your very good health to begin with? It comes to you as a by product. That comes to you as a by product. It is not done through Me. Because, say now, how you have decorated when I’m coming in here – in the same way, if the light has to come, the Divine has to shine, your own body is cleansed. Is beautified and is made healthy; that’s as a by product. But that’s not the ultimate. The light has to come within you, the reality has to be pulsating within you; unless and until that happens, everything else has no meaning.
The other things that can happen is if you are mentally... also upset – or as I have said, the physical, the mental, the emotional, then the spiritual – and then beyond that is the state of complete bliss, of collective consciousness is established: in the space you are thrown. In the same way, it happens within you, so naturally all these things are [UNCLEAR –exploded?] and normalised and the ultimate is established in the space. Whatever is useless or sick falls off. Whatever is beautiful comes up. As in the tree, you have seen that when the fruit comes up, so many things have to drop. In the same way, all that is not wanted drops out and all that is required shows itself and manifests.
It’s a very beautiful happening – it should happen to all of you – but again I would like to tell you, it is a very subtle happening. It was never this way. Only for the first time that it has started working this way; that it is given to people who are [Sanskrit?] – who are simple people, ordinary people, leading a very simple life. Because it has to happen that way because, supposing there is a discovery of electricity by one person, which has a big history behind it. And he discovers something, and he does not make it useful for the common people. If the common people cannot benefit by it, if the ordinary people cannot understand it, it has no meaning. In the same way, Sahaja Yoga has to go to common people; everybody must understand. Otherwise, people like Christ were crucified – nobody understood Him. People like Kabira, nobody understood. People like Nanaka was tortured. People like Mohammed-Sahib was given poisons, and every one of them had to just suffer because of the ignorance of the common people. Today, the time has come for common people to be realised.
Let’s try how many of you get it. If you get it, then it’s a subtle thing, but to settle into Sahaja Yoga, you have to practise. You have to come at least once a month – at least minimum - to a general program, because it is a collective program. It’s a common program, and that’s why it is going to work out in Collective; individually it’s not going to work out. Individually it’s very difficult. As you know about Hatha yogis – how they have to stay in the jungle. Before they were twenty five years of age, Hatha Yoga was to work out with [UNCLEAR Ashtang?] Not the way the modern hatha yoga is all wrong: absolutely wrong. It should not be - it’s the wrong style. Because this kind of Hatha yoga takes your attention only to your physical being and gives you an imbalance. The other day I had somebody who was a great Hatha yogi and he had a heart attack. So he told Me he got a heart attack after Hatha yoga. So I said then what did he do? So he said, ‘They gave me another yoga to remove this heart attack.’ And when he came here for Me, he was shaking, just like this. So I told him, ask for the man who is shaking, and this man was a possessed man from a lunatic asylum. I said, ‘This is what has happened to your nerves. Who are asking to break your neck for nothing at all? There was no need for you to go to such an extreme. You should have just waited; you would have got your realisation.’
Of course, [UNCLEAR Asanas?] also have a place, but you must understand the complete shastra: complete science of all these things must be understood. But that is after realisation, not before. For example, you are suffering from stomach trouble and if you start using an asana for your neck, you’ve had it: your neck will be gone and then your stomach will be [next?]. So there is a big science behind and those who understand the science will not use it for such a long time, every day, religiously – there is no need to. Whenever there is some need, then only take the medicine. Do you go on staying in a medicine shop all your life, just to keep healthy? Same thing is about Mantra. Mantra also has got a very big science; once you understand that science that is [UNCLEAR]. Without realisation, mantra also has no meaning. Those who give you mantras are people who are [UNCLEAR] They don’t understand any meaning of mantra, I can tell you. Because I have seen, the way they are knowing the chakras and things, and the Kundalini doesn’t rise. The basic thing is that your Kundalini must rise. Those people who spoil your Kundalini, I do not like them at all. Some of them spoil because they are naïve; they don’t know what to do about Kundalini because they are not authorised. They are not holy people, they are not realised souls. They are not supposed to do it, so they spoil your Kundalini. They make money out of it, because anybody can sell anything, you see. Anybody can say, ‘I am a Kundalini awakener.’ What can you do about the [fuss?] God is not going to come and arrest you for that. You are arrested, in a way, but that’s a very subtle [UNCLEAR] which nobody understands. That these are the punishments of our wrongdoing. Those who try to do it in a naïve way can be forgiven. Even those who make money, I can forgive them, because this is a silly thing that’s going on everywhere. But those who do it deliberately are definitely the devils – I call them Danavas, Rakshasas. Because deliberately to spoil somebody’s Kundalini, just to entice them, and to hypnotise them to use for your own purpose, is absolutely Satanic: is against the purpose of God and that’s why I’ll call them as the Devil.
So, let us have the experience – you put your hands towards Me and...[tape fades out]
