About
us
Over the 35 years that Shri Mataji has
been travelling the world giving en-masse
self-realisation, Sahaja Yoga has grown
to encompass peoples from more than
85 countries. As such we are a truly
international and multi-cultural family,
brought together by a common desire
to grow spiritually and share the wonderful
experiences we have enjoyed in Sahaja
Yoga with others. Each
country has its own more or less formal
Sahaja Yoga structure in harmony with
local administrative norms, with either
a national coordinator or a committee
system in place to oversee the various
activities.
In the early days of
Sahaja Yoga, and as there is no money
taken for the knowledge of Sahaja
Yoga or the self-realisation experience,
Shri Mataji Herself bore any costs
incurred in the spreading of her message.
Today it is mostly we, the people
who live this experience on a regular
and integrated basis, who support
the daily activities through personal
donations, of time, money or skills,
even though Shri Mataji of course,
continues her generous support.
For us, it is the greatest
honour to contribute in whatever small
way to bringing Shri Mataji’s
message and the experience of self-realisation
to our country men and women.
In 2005, the
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi Sahaja Yoga
World Foundation was inaugurated in
the United States, with the purpose
protecting and enhancing Shri Mataji’s
enormous legacy, and to support the
propagation of Sahaja Yoga around
the world. The Board of Directors
of the World Foundation is comprised
of Shri Mataji, as the President for
Life, and the members of the World
Council, a body of 34 men and women
from all the corners of the globe,
who work within a committee system
to oversee and coordinate global initiatives
and activities.
