How is Sahaja Yoga meditation different from other types of meditation?

Sahaja Yoga is not any physical exercise or breath control method. It is purely meditation – dhyan (as called in Hindi. It was started by the Founder, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, in the year 1970 on the 5th of May – known as World Sahasrara Day - since the Sahasrara Chakra or the 7th Chakra/ Crown Chakra of our universe was opened on this day by her. She had been very spiritually inclined since early childhood and she purposely led a very ordinary life of a householder playing the role of a dutiful wife, loving mother to two daughters and grandchildren. After taking care of her worldly duties, she was blessed with the divine grace to open the 7th chakra at Universal level because of which ‘self-realization’ or ‘Kundalini Awakening’ could be given en masse. It is a breakthrough in the spiritual awakening or spiritual evolution. Earlier, self realization or kundalini awakening could happen to rare few people because humanity was yet to be ready to receive this tremendous divine power. As it is said by Her Holiness – Truth can be borne only by those who have the capacity to bear it. Truth is God. So with Sahaja Yoga meditation, you connect directly with your creator without any intervention of a thirst party. You become your own master….leading very ordinary lives.
