Freedom is when you really get your own powers which are within you. In your central nervous system and in your conscious mind, you must feel the existence of the spirit.

More quotes by Nirmala Srivastava
When you're desireless you are happy because you are never disappointed, you are never nervous. So to be desireless doesn't mean that you become something absurd or ascetic or anything like that, but not to expect something.
Nirmala Srivastava
Dharma gives you the balance. It gives you the establishment into proper behavior, proper understanding, proper living, but it doesn't give you the completion of your journey. It doesn't give you the satisfaction of reaching the destination and your personality is still incomplete. So one has to have the experience of the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
The enjoyment of life is only possible if we could get connected to the spirit.
Nirmala Srivastava
Enrichment only comes through purification.
Nirmala Srivastava
The more I know about myself the more dynamic I become, the more expansive I become.
Nirmala Srivastava
Truth is one, single, and it can never be misinterpreted. To know the truth it is essential that whatever human awareness we have got, it has to be expanded. There is something still lacking in that awareness by which we cannot know God, we cannot know the truth.
Nirmala Srivastava
Sahaja Yoga is a very subtle happening within us. It's a very subtle happening. And this subtler happening gives you sensitivity to divine joy.
Nirmala Srivastava
You must forgive everyone. Now many would say that We cannot forgive, it's very difficult. But it's a myth whether you forgive or don't forgive. What do you do? You don't do anything. But when you don't forgive, then you are playing into wrong hands. That means you are torturing yourself, while those who have troubled you are quite happy.

The attention is to be kept pure.
Nirmala Srivastava
If we do not know how to respect the Mother Earth, we do not know how to respect ourselves.
Nirmala Srivastava
God is reflected in your heart as your Spirit, called as Atma. Unless and until your attention reaches that Spirit, talking about it, doing anything about it, it's absolutely useless. You have to be really born again. It's an actualization, which should take place.
Nirmala Srivastava
If your body wants comfort, you try to make it learn to give up that. Try to make your body your slave and not you the slave of the body.
Nirmala Srivastava
So spirituality itself should be self satisfying. If you are spiritually endowed, then you are self satisfied. And this self satisfaction within you will lead you to that ocean of joy about which I've been telling you and all the scriptures have described.
Nirmala Srivastava
Ego is the greatest hurdle for your ascent. You see that ego is at a place where you have to just cross to go to Sahasrara, and to break Sahasrara is very easy otherwise. But if there is ego, you are already lost in that ego.
Nirmala Srivastava
Unless and until your Sahasrara is open, all the blessings of the Divine Power cannot come to you.
Nirmala Srivastava
Only after Self-Realisation and only then, is there a direct experience of the Spirit. It then manifests its powers in the human personality, and it's light enlightens the consciousness into a new awareness. The Divine intelligence of the Spirit radiates on all sides.
Nirmala Srivastava
Yoga is a big misnomer in the west, people don't know what this yoga is. Yoga means union with the divine. When you become one with the divine, the divine starts flowing through you and you become part and parcel of the whole.
Nirmala Srivastava
The evolution has to take place still within us to know ourselves. We can say that unless and until it is put to the mains, it has no meaning. Unless and until we are connected with the whole, we have no meaning.
Nirmala Srivastava
The fun is created only through innocence and innocence is the only way you can really emit also the fun. Imagine this world without any fun, what would happen?
