Question: He asks if You, Shri Mataji, are the only founder of Sahaja Yoga? Shri Mataji: No, I’m not. I told you, it started long time back. Now, I am, you can say, that I made it an en masse Realization, en masse.

So now, the new breakthrough into the evolutionary process takes place in Sahaja Yoga. Formerly, in the ancient times, there used to be one or two flowers on the tree of life. But I have somehow developed this new method of Sahaja Yoga, which gives spontaneous Realization to thousands in en masse, en masse Realization. I’ve developed, this is the only thing I’ve developed. Collectively, for thousands, not one or two

Shri Durga Puja. Rahuri (India), 1 February 1982
https://www.amruta.org/1982/02/01/shri-durga-puja-rahuri-1982/?highlight=Mahayoga
This is what I am telling them: that you must work out in such a way that you become substantially dedicated to Sahaja Yoga. Not just for your sake, not just for your family or for your country but for the whole Universe. So you are the seeds who are going to create that great atmosphere that will bring forth the great change that we are expecting of Mahayoga. It is very important to understand that so many people have talked about this and I have come across a book which was written 2000 years back which describes about this Mahayoga and what is going to happen. It’s very interesting. After the puja and havan, I think Mr. Chauhan will translate it to you and you can understand what is about.

Based below talks of Shri Mataji, Sahaja Yoga is there from past 8000 years ago,
...”Now the time has come, some people might say that “How is it? Self realisation was meant for one or two people”. It is true. At the time of Rama, his father in law, Janaka, gave realisation to one fellow called as Nachiketa; but this was 8000 years back. Today the time has come, the blossom time has come and everybody has to get realisation. It is a Maha Yoga. Sahaja Yoga has become a Maha Yoga, is a great yoga”...
October 9th, 1981
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
...“But today Sahaja has gone into the stage called as Maha Yoga, means it has become a en-masse. It works en-masse. Before it used to work in one person, two persons, you see – like one flower becoming a fruit in the
beginning of the tree. But today the situation is such that thousands can get realization. It’s Maha Yoga. Sahaja Yoga has matured into Maha Yoga. Maha means the great”...

March 15th, 1983...From very childhood I knew I had to do this work. I was very aware from My very childhood. But My father, who was also a great soul, he told Me that “you have to find out media by which You give people en masse Realization, not individual Realization. Because whatever is achieved individually, is never accepted by the masses, and such people are always criticised, or they’re crucified, or if not, they are always misinterpreted. So, you have to find a method by which to give en masse Realization.” And I was quite aware of it, that I have to do this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, as you know, Sahaja Yoga should be called as Maha Yoga. It is written that when Sahaja Yoga will be done on en masse basis, then it becomes Maha Yoga. It is described so many times in Indian scriptures and by many things and they have been looking forward to this happening en masse.

“Now you are grown up people, you have to become responsible for this Maha Yoga and for this great dharma that we have established: the dharma that integrates all the dharmas, the dharma that purifies anybody who comes near. It’s the ocean of all the rivers. All the rivers flow to this great ocean of Vishwa Dharma”.May 4th, 1985

- 2008-0720 Guru Puja Talk, Cabella, Italy
25 mins: “First you may get two people, then three people. I started with five. So you can imagine how one can go with it. Try first of all with two, three, five and more. You can also advertise afterwards, if you have given Realization to people, say about – you have given Realization to ten people – you can start your own organization, or whatever you may call, and can work it out.”
..."So now I am no more available in the sense I’ve done my best and I think I won’t be able to do this again. It is not my old age but I want to give you a complete freedom to spread Sahaja Yoga. You have got it free and you also have to give it to people free – not to charge them"..
It took several months of seeking guidance for the right path from Her Holiness Shri Mataji and checking of vibrations at every step to reach the momentous day when a decision was finally made to create a 501 C(3) nonprofit organization.
But after this decision, an even more intriguing question arose - what would be the name of this organization? Several names were proposed but the vibrations kept rejecting them until after another several months of seeking the right name, the name Maha Yoga appeared as the clear answer. Guided by tremendous vibrations and by many of Shri Mataji’s talks, the name Maha Yoga was selected. Here are a few snippets from Shri Mataji’s lectures:
- 1979-0726, Enfield Grammar School for Girls, Enfield, UK
46 mins: “There are the three names of Sahaja Yoga: one is Maha Yoga – means the ‘greatest yoga’, another is Siddhi Yoga /Siddha Yoga, or the Sahaja Yoga; they call it by three names.”
- 1979-1008, Caxton Hall, 8th of October, 1979
22 mins: “I mean the name of our Sahaja Yoga is really Maha Yoga, is the one where you meet [God]. So this is a Maha Yoga. Because the whole thing has been sahaja only. From the very beginning it is spontaneous, everything, I mean our nose, eyes everything has come to us spontaneous, we have done nothing about it. But now the thing where we really meet the Ultimate, that’s the point is called as ‘Maha Yog’ – means the greatest yoga. Like till I came here, till you didn’t see me, it was still half way, so yoga was not there, whatever it was it was not real yoga, you see, you are making preparations, you are making all the arrangements and everything was there, but when we meet is the yoga. So the point where you meet is the real place and that’s why it is the Maha Yoga. Like you, I am coming to London by plane, till Frankfurt I am not in London, till I have landed in London also I am not there because I haven’t yet met you. Till I have met you at the gate there was no yoga, so that’s the point, that’s the moment, the split of the moment where you meet your Spirit, is the Yoga. So it is actually Maha Yoga, but in the beginning I didn’t want to call it a Maha Yoga because as it is the serpents of ego were there with all their complete hood on top of my head! So I said, “Better start it with ‘Sahaja’,” because if I said, “This is Maha Yoga,” they would all come and hit me hard saying that, “Oh God, how can that be?” But it is that! :”
- 1979-1111 Meaning Of Yoga
39 mins: “So one has to understand that this is the time of Maha Yoga. Where all these Antar yoga, means all these happening inside, takes place automatically.”
41:50 mins: When Maha yoga comes in, you don’t have to worry about anything else. All the yogas are at your feet. You just raise your hands just like this and the kundalini will rise. It’s a fact, you just try. Anybody is sick, you just put your hand like this and the person is going to be alright. Try yourself. This is Maha yoga, is the culmination point of Sahaja Yoga. Once you achieve it you don’t have to do anything else.”
- Public Program, Caxton Hall, London, England. 3 December 1979.
22 mins: “This is why this is Maha Yoga stage of Sahaja Yoga. Maha Yoga stage because, at this stage you meet: till you have not met Me, you have not met Me. Maybe you might have come up to Victoria [ed: Victoria station], even up to this place and if you have not met Me you have not met Me. So if you have to meet Me, then that moment when you meet Me is the real point. If you have not met Me, till that moment it has no meaning… In the same way all yogas are useless, if there is no Maha Yoga. So, the time of Maha Yoga has come, and you have to get it, and it has to work out. It is as simple as that.”
- 1980-12-13 Maha Yoga Prophecy in Hindi
“In Ghor Kalyug this event will take place, Maha Yoga will get established, only Maha Yoga will “WHAT IS THE WORD HERE?” the last judgment.”
- 1980-1201 You are part of the divine being Part 2, UK, transcribed
5 mins: “Now the Sahaja Yoga at this stage is really a Maha Yoga in the sense [that] it is the Great Yoga because many people can get Realisation. Thousands of people can get it because the blossom time has come.”
- Public Program 5, New York (USA), September 28th, 1981
1:31:20 mins “But today Sahaja has gone into the stage called as Maha Yog. Means it has become a en-masse. It works en-masse. Before it used to work in one person, two persons, you see – like one flower becoming a fruit in the beginning of the tree. But today the situation is such that thousands can get realization. It’s Maha Yoga. Sahaja Yoga has matured into Maha Yoga. Maha means the great.”
- 1982-0926 Shri Durga Puja Talk, Vienna, Austria,
13 mins: "There are some sahaja yogis who believe that Sahaja Yoga is a Christian Sahaja Yog or a Hindu Sahaja Yog. Still that lingers on, that lingers on, that it is a Christian Sahaja Yoga. For Christians it has to be Christian Sahaja Yoga; for Hindus it should be a Hindu Sahaja Yoga. For Muslims it is a Muslim Sahaja Yoga; it must relate to Islam, because they can't get out of their own conditioning, so it must relate to that, it must explain everything that is there. They can't get out of it, you see? It could be also a Catholic Sahaja Yoga or a Protestant Sahaja Yoga. Could be even deeper than that. Like that, you see, it goes on. So, you pull Sahaja Yoga into your own categories, into your own small little cups. But it's just the other way round. Sahaja Yoga is the ocean, is a universal thing, it is a MahaYoga. It is not meant for Christians, Hindus, Muslims; it's meant for human beings as they were”
- 1983-09-28 Public Program
“Today, as you know, Sahaja Yoga should be called as Maha Yoga. It is written that when Sahaj Yoga will be done on enmasse basis, then it becomes Maha Yoga.”
- 1983-1020, Public Program, New York, USA
31 mins: “Sahaja Yoga is the simplest method. Sahaja also means, it means also a simple, easy. But “saha-ja”, saha means with, “ja” means born, is born with you. But today this is called in India as Maha Yoga. Because before this, all the Realizations took place of course through Sahaj only, by Kundalini awakening. There is no other way. Only Kundalini awakening is the way you get your Realization. Like some people said, there must be some another way. There is none. Because like a seed has to sprout through the primule only, in the same way, in your case, in human beings, the Kundalini has to rise to give you Realization. There’s no other way, but this. It is called as Sahaja method, means spontaneous method. But today it is called as Maha Yoga, because you`ll find thousands of people get Realization.”
- 1984-0114 Makar Sakrant Puja Talk, Mumbai, India,
7:30 mins “Now to come to for Maha Yoga as the Sahaja Yoga today has become Maha Yoga you have to come to Maharashtra. Maharashtra is the great nation”
- 1985-0504 talk before Sahastrara Puja, Vienna, Austria
32 mins: “There is no more time left for us to dilly-dally. Those who will be left behind will be left behind. It’s a very intense period now, you must understand. The intensity of the period is not by-the-way. It’s not any more Sahaja Yoga. It is Maha Yoga now. And you have to become Maha, you have to become great, otherwise you cannot be there. You have to jump out of all these things.”
- 1990-0506 Sahastrara Puja Talk, Fiuggi, Italy
15:00mins “There is no need to confess anymore. There is only one confession: "I am a Sahaja Yogi, and now, after the 21st of Sahastrara, I am a Maha Yogi". This is the confession you have to make”
22 mins: “So now, as you are Maha Yogis, we have to make it a Mahayoga and unless and until that level is achieved by you, then we should think that you are still backdated and I don’t know, in the turning of the wheel, how many will be left there”.
24 mins: “It is the inside where we’ll have to prepare ourselves fully, to accept ourselves, to tell ourselves every day that we are now Maha Yogis and we have to work it out that way. Today we have here people from all over the world and you go and tell this message to all the rest of the people, whom I have not met, that Mother has already announced, through the Vishnumaya also, that you all have become Now Mahayogis. And try to express that, manifest that with full confidence in yourself and with this power of love, I’m sure you will all win over.”

Shri Durga Puja. Rahuri (India), 1 February 1982
https://www.amruta.org/1982/02/01/shri-durga-puja-rahuri-1982/?highlight=Mahayoga
This is what I am telling them: that you must work out in such a way that you become substantially dedicated to Sahaja Yoga. Not just for your sake, not just for your family or for your country but for the whole Universe. So you are the seeds who are going to create that great atmosphere that will bring forth the great change that we are expecting of Mahayoga. It is very important to understand that so many people have talked about this and I have come across a book which was written 2000 years back which describes about this Mahayoga and what is going to happen. It’s very interesting. After the puja and havan, I think Mr. Chauhan will translate it to you and you can understand what is about.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, I must tell you when there is a blossom time, there are thousands and thousands of flowers, but when the tree is just planted you might get one or two. So many great souls have taken birth to become the fruits. That is the reason why we are having en masse Realization. Thousands of people are getting Realization and settling into it.
Today, I have told you as an introduction to Sahaja Yoga, “sahaja” means, “saha” means “with”, “ja” means born. It is born within you, and “yoga” means unions with the Divine. So it is the right of every human being, because this is born within him, to have the spontaneous yoga. This is not a new method. Like a seed that sprouts, your Kundalini also gets awakened. But in the olden days, it was available to very, very few people. But now the time has come for all of you to have it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I mean, I was born Realized, I should say. I knew all about this Myself but I knew also that I have to find out a method which will give enmasse Realization. Formerly, there used to be one or two people getting Realization, very few. But I knew that I have to work out some method. So, I studied the subtle problems that lies in every human being and I met many people like that. And I tried to find out what is the way one can work out that they can get enmasse Realization, you see, the permutations and combinations, if you can work it out. And then I discovered it’s not so difficult.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They used to give Self Realization to only one person, but when I was born I found out that it doesn’t work if you have Self Realization for one person and time has come to give en masse Realization. So what I did only thing that I put in as my effort that I worked on the various peoples, personality and their kundalini and tried to find out what are the permutations and combinations that torture these people. Why can’t they get Realization? And by 1970 I found out the method which it is very easy to raise the kundalini of all the people.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sahaja Yoga is not a new system. Sri Rama’s father-in-law, Sita’s father, gave realisation to one fellow, Nachiketa. The only difference is now today, in modern times, that you can get ‘en masse’ realisation….
