Kundalini is universal

"In every human being, as you know very well, there is Kundalini. There's no discrimination, every one, whether you are a Moslem, a Jew, Hindu, Christian, Sikh, Farsi, anyone. You may call by any name. Now just look at how we accept a certain denomination for ourselves. You are born, say, to a Christian family, or you are born to a Hindu family, immediately you start thinking that you are there to uphold all the flags of that religion in which you are born. You are born in that religion without your knowledge, without your permission, without any understanding, so how can you belong to that religion? You have got Kundalini, everybody has got Kundalini, so you can only belong to the religion of humanity where every human being has got Kundalini."

The Driving Question that Leads us to Religions

If you see the human problems, we cannot say why are we here. What's the purpose of our life? That's why many people try to find their identity, which I think is a real thing - one has to do is to find your own identity, why are you here on this earth. Science cannot answer this question. Why are we on this earth? What are we doing on this earth? What is the purpose of human life? What is the purpose of evolution? These questions cannot be answered by science.

So then we start looking into religions.

Shri Mataji on Holi

"And not to become a person who is just outwardly something like Christian, Hindu, Muslim. No! Inside. Inside you have to become. Now as a result of that you have seen what Shri Krishna has said, that once you become from inside then I don't have to tell you, "Don't drink, don't do this, don't do that." Nothing. You just don't do it, you just don't do it, and you understand it so well that this should not be done, that should not be done. To overcome all kinds of nonsense of religion Shri Krishna's advent was there. It was a very important advent but I don't know how many people understand that. He came to show that it's all Leela, is all the play of God. What is there to be serious? What is there to be ritualistic? You cannot bind God in any rituals. That's why he came on this Earth, to tell you that you should not try to bind yourself by rituals which are nonsensical. This was his teaching so many years back, he taught this 6 thousand years back. But still, if you see in every religion, there are so many rituals going on. So when the incarnations died, people started rituals; funny stuff, even when Shri Krishna died, they didn't know what to do now. Because he said, "No more rituals ... just play Holi, be happy, joyous, dance and sing," that's what he said. Now what to do? Now if he has said so. So they started a new thing, let's make it a romantic stuff. Human beings know how to make everything perverse. Nobody can beat them in this. So they made him look like a very romantic personality, romancing with Radha.

Ra-dha, Ra is energy, dha is the one who has sustained energy. So, show romances with Her.... when She was Mahalakshmi Herself! To show his relationship with Mahalakshmi as if they were husband and wife. So there were also some poets who started describing them as husband and wife, and all kinds of nonsense. In divine relationship there is nothing like husband and wife. (There) is the power which is potential and the power that is kinetic. There is no such relationship that exists as human beings try to make it. Because human beings have a habit to bring all the Divine incarnations to their own levels. "
