Bring her along!

The first time I saw Shri Mataji was in Her house at Jeevan Jyot, Mumbai, in about 1971 or ’72. I was a schoolgirl of about eleven at the time. Shri Mataji used to invite people to the house. My mother went to see Shri Mataji quite a few times before I was taken. I used to wonder where she was going. One day she took a photo of me to Shri Mataji, and Shri Mataji said ‘bring her along!’ I didn’t know where I was going but I was told by my mother that I was going to see somebody, and I had to be quiet when She spoke because my mum had something important to discuss, and if I was quiet I could be taken again. As soon as we, that is my mother, sister and I  got there, we were greeted by little dogs at the door. Apparently they recognised yogis and their bark was completely different then. If a seeker knocked they knew. We were led into a little room at the side and Shri Mataji came in the evening. Immediately She saw us kids She called the cook and asked the cook to go and get something to eat for the children. We were admiring a little carved coffee table, painted white,  that was there, and it had been designed by Shri Mataji. The cook brought in chips and occupied us throughout so we didn’t disturb the talk, and obviously Shri Mataji was working on us through our nabhis. We always wanted to go back after that! Shri Mataji was forcing us to eat the chips – we would just eat one or two, but She would encourage us to eat them all and said that these were for us.

If people arrived and Shri Mataji was in deep meditation, on occasions even Sir CP would  welcome them and make them comfortable until such time as SM could see them, and even right from the start Shri Mataji and the Sahaja Yogi’s had so much support from Her family.
