Dear All,

So the best way to cure catches is to leave it to the Divine. That is the best method that works again and again. And if you do get catches after that all you have to do is put your attention on them in the thoughtless state. It is very important to be in the thoughtless state_before putting your attention on the affected chakra(s). Go into thoughtless and then put attention, not the other way round.

Those who really want to get their subtle system balanced and heal the catches must learn to surrender all problems to the Divine. If they ever get any catches after that they will have to learn how to get into the thoughtless state and then put that enlightened attention on the specific affected chakra(s). i have used this method for years and the success rate is 100% - all the time.

And Shri Mataji also recommends just that:

"It is worth trying and after that you will realize that what you were doing earlier was wrong. So once you are in thoughtlessness you will get all inspirations, all powers and everything."

So please learn how to follow these instructions of Shri Mataji instead of relying on the ignorance of other sickly SYs. The Mother Kundalni and thoughtless state will work at all times, day after day, month after months, year after year. There is just nothing like learning to use these powers. This is a process that takes time, patience and faith.

But if you are still not able to heal then She recommends treatments as a last resort. It is a foregone conclusion that these SYs have _not_ achieved that thoughtless state or learnt how to surrender their problems to the divine. They just want a quick cure and do not have the discipline required for attaining the thoughtless state.

And after all these cures and special diets you still get caught there is nothing left to do, but to just continue these endless catch-cure-catch-diet-catch-mantras-catch-lemons-catch-matka- catch-candling ritual. And SYs just love all these cleansing rituals which, IMO, are the least effective and almost useless as placebos. If SYs have still not learnt how to heal petty catches how are they ever going to cure diseases?

As usual you will not get any answers from those who are actively perpetuating these rituals. For them Sahaja Yoga is all about the subtle system. Since they have so much expertise in this field and engage in daily treatments and diets why are they catching? Why are they still not experts in leaving all to the Divine and attaining that very important state of nirvichara/nirvikalpa? Why are they bringing others down to their level? It just does not make any sense.

The reason they can't is because they are so entangled.

SYs continue reading Shri Mataji's advise literally and do not use their introspection as to what She really means. We are first and foremost supposed to learn how to become thoughtless and leave everything to the Mother Kundalini. When She says you have to footsoak daily it is for those who just can't or find it difficult to become thoughtless (nirvichara/nirvikalpa). These are the people who should footsoak till they learn how to become skilled at harnessing those powers. Once they have attained that state they must abandon all external rituals. There is absolutely no need or basis to continue these rituals when the Divine and thoughtless state is far capable of looking after you. So why should those who have attained this high state of consciousness be subjected to footsoaks or any other cleansing rituals of those SYs still so far away from attaining nirvichara/nirvikalpa?

i remember waiting for years to hear Shri Mataji saying the same thing about the absurdity of ritualistic cleansing after i had given up all external rituals. It made no sense to me to continue a religion of lemons and chillies, as Danny has put it so eloquently. i wanted to be vindicated of my belief that went against the "you- will-always-catch-and-will-always-need-daily-footsoaking-and- cleansing" declaration of that senior SY.

Then one day i heard Her saying so on the tape, lamenting at SYs who continue footsoaking and doing treatment for years. Her words were something to this effect: "What is the point of doing Sahaja Yoga if you still need to do all these rituals?" i am not quoting Her verbatim but that is what She was trying to say. The day i get hold of this tape, whose year of origin remains unknown, i will post it here. Maybe then SYs will stop turning Sahaja Yoga into a religion of lemons and chillies.

jai Shri Mataji
