-Did you get presents from Mother? Tell us about it Rupert.
One was a strange one because I never expected a present, I expected a reprimand but it was a puja coming up and I didn’t feel worthy of going to this puja. I had some sort of negative thoughts, I forget what it was, I can’t remember what it was but I just didn’t want to go. Brenda said come, I said, no, no, I don’t want to go, I’d feel hypocritical. So I didn’t go. Anyway, I was a bit amazed because when Brenda got to, will you tell the rest of the story because I was indoors with…
Brenda: We all sat in front of Shri Mataji and she said, where is your husband? I looked round and thought, oh, he’s home Mother. Tell him he has no .. and give him this, some white cotton linen to make you good.
Rupert: I couldn’t believe it.
Brenda: You’re telling me fibs. I wouldn’t tell you fibs. That reminds me, I turned up at public program one night and I had terrible left Vishuddhi. I sat right in the back of the hall, far away from Mother as I possibly could. At the end of the program Mother said, all the yogis can come up and give me a flower. I thought, I’m not going anywhere near Mother, not in this state. There was long queue and we were sitting there waiting for this queue to go down and I saw a yogi who I needed to speak to about something, in the queue, so I thought I’ll just go and tell him while he’s in the queue, it’s going to take a while. I started having this conversation with him and finished what I was saying and the queue it dwindled so it got close enough to Mother for the vibrations to welcome me so I thought, well, I might as well stay here now. The queue went down and down and down and eventually it got to the chap right in front of me. Mother said to this chap, how are you then? He said, I’ve got left Vishuddhi, Mother. Mother said, I beg your pardon? He said, I got left Vishuddhi, Mother. Mother turned to me, she said, what did he say? I said, he’s got left Vishuddhi, Mother. Mother works on him and got up, went out, she didn’t want to see me. The other time that I remember about presents, was she bought us all ties. It was after puja at the temple and she bought all the men ties. She bought these ties and they all match what we were already wearing. I remember some checked shirt and I pulled out this checked tie.
I have one to do with left Vishuddhi as well in India, an amazing experience. In Pune, I already told some people, it was at the marked in Pune and Mother was there and she had a few of her relatives there as well. She was going around the marked and, like Bernard, I was not feeling very good about myself and I was hoping that Mother wouldn’t turn her attention to me. I didn’t want to go into her attention or her to ask me how I was or anything. I was holding back. I was watching Mother and following but at a distance and she was absolutely surrounded by people so I kept walking around, this went on for I don’t know how long, an hour, an hour or something. I got involved in buying some silk paintings at one of the stalls and when I had finished buying them I looked up and suddenly there was hardly anyone in the market. Everyone seemed to have gone because it had taken half an hour, my attention had been in that. I kind of relaxed because Mother wasn’t there and she wasn’t going to put her attention on me and I was walking along and suddenly I was, you know, there was hardly anyone there walking towards me was Shri Mataji, completely alone and she was coming towards me and I was going towards her and so we looked at each other, I bowed to her and she said, how are you, Ruth? I said, I’m fine thank you, Mother. She said, just enjoy and then she walked past. When I got back to the camp I said, I met Mother at the market and she spoke to me and they said, no, that’s impossible because she was surrounded by people the whole time she was there and when she left she was surrounded by people.
-She could be in more than one place at a time and also how she cares.
She knew how I was feeling and how I was holding back.
-Remind us where it was and when?
That was in Pune and it was in 1988.
