*** 錫呂瑪塔吉有關憤怒的談話 ***
練習者問：假如在某一個狀況下，某人對他人生氣了，這是因為個性傾向的反應？或是來自一個負面力量的影響呢？
錫呂瑪塔吉答：假如你心中發火了，但你很確定你並沒有做錯任何事，對一個霎哈嘉練習者而言，是完全沒有必要將怒氣表現在外，這憤怒本身就是一種力量(power)。此時你應該給你自己一個班單(bandhan)等等，但是你不需要表現出你是憤怒生氣的，你應該要完全的寧靜，因為你是做得到的，你是處在(宇宙不動的)軸心(axis)，你不是在(混亂打轉的)周邊。其實你心中的怒氣只是來讓你看到這憤怒，及讓你使用這憤怒來達成它的目的。假如你能如此做，這(心中的)怒氣會自行來成就，它會自行來擺平你所面對的那個人，你也會驚訝到事情竟如此成就。但是你必須先學習來靜觀你的憤怒，那憤怒是會成就事情。
你也看過有時候(我)只是對這些負面、亡魂吼叫，它們就跑光光，甚至有些瘋子就因此痊癒。但是你們不能(學我)這樣做，我才可以這樣做，你們必須隨時保持端莊、和善的態度。
假如你的生氣是來自你個性上的傾向，或是你的失控，那麼這種生氣是不好的。假如發脾氣是來自失控，那麼(絕對)是不好的。我有時候會很生氣，但是完全是在我的掌控之中，我知道我在生氣，我知道亡魂、負面在那裡，我也清楚看見它們如何跑走，我可以看得見它，但是你們看不見亡魂，你們看不見這些東西，所以你們沒有必要生氣，或展現你的脾氣。假如你的憤怒讓你有些失控 ，那麼有一個來祈求Shanti (即peace，平靜)
的口訣 ：“Ya Devi
sarva bhuteshu Shanti
rupena samsthita.”，你必須來祈求這個祝福、這個平靜。要控制你的脾氣，你必須對自己念誦這個口訣，Shanti
是重點、是這個軸心，從這個軸心你可以靜觀萬事萬物。縱使你是在生氣，但假如你是平靜的，你就不是處於混亂的狀態，這時候這個生氣就是一種力量，這個力量會來主導一切。總之你需要做的就是讓自己處在平靜的狀態，這個Shanti就是你的堡壘，但是這種安靜平和並不是代表一種懦弱，懦弱本身就不是平靜，一個平靜的人絕對不會是一個懦夫，因為沒有任何東西可以超越平靜，可以打敗它。懦弱與平靜從來都不是相提並論的。你的力量是來自裡面，而不是來自外面，所以你不必將你的憤怒的力量展現在外面，只需要對人展現一點點的憤怒，你就會看到它如何成就事情。
首先你必須在你的内裡建立一個基礎，在這個基礎上，你是軸心，你不會容許憤怒騎在你頭上，如此你就會成長。
這兩種憤怒你都要知道，當你可以抽離出來看你的憤怒，這種憤怒是完全無礙的；當憤怒會將你淹沒，你就必須想辦法來解決這種憤怒了。你必須自己好好判斷你的憤怒是那一種。

Sahaja Yogi: Mother, if you become angry at any point with people,
is that because it’s a tendency or a negative entity? Or is it just a tendency
to react like that?
Shri Mataji: You see, if you get angry within yourself, and if
you are sure that you are not doing anything wrong, for a Sahaja Yogi there is
no need to say outside you are angry. There’s no need. That anger itself is a
power.
And you should do your bandhan and anything that you want to do.
But you should not show that you are angry. You should be absolutely silent.
Because you can be; you are in the axis, you are not on the periphery.
Actually, the anger is just to see your anger and use that anger for that
purpose. And once you start doing that, that anger will itself work out. That
anger will itself work out the person. And you’ll be amazed how it… but you
must learn to see your anger that is working. All these things are important.
You have seen that sometimes only shouting at the bhoots – they go away. And
many mad people have been cured like that.
But you don’t do all that, that’s for Me. You must be always
decent, with decorum and all that. But if the anger is because of your nature,
or a tendency, or out of control – than it’s a bad thing. If it is an
out-of-control, than it’s a bad thing. If you get into a temper because it is
out of control, than it’s a bad thing. I can get very angry, but I am
completely under control: I know I am angry, where the bhoot is, how he is
running away; I can see it. But you can’t see the bhoot, you can’t see
anything. So there is no need for you to get angry, show temper. But if you
have an anger – say, for example, which makes you uncontrollable – then there
is a mantra for that: Shanti [peace]. “Ya Devi sarva bhuteshu Shanti rupena
samsthita.” You must ask for that bliss, for that peace. This is a mantra for
you. For controlling your temper, you have to tell yourself, “Ya Devi sarva
bhuteshu Shanti rupena samsthita.” So Shanti is the point – the axis point is
that – from where you witness everything. You are in Shanti, you are in
complete… you are not in a turmoil even if you are angry. You are not in a
turmoil. Whatever is anger is the power, and the power is taking charge. But
unless and until that is achieved, what you have to do is to put yourself in a
position that you are peaceful.
So I think that’s a very good mantra – is to say, “Ya Devi sarva
bhuteshu Shanti rupena samsthita.” Can you say that? So the Shanti is your
fort. But peacefulness never means cowardice. Never call cowardice as peace. A
person who is peaceful is never coward, because nothing can transgress it,
nothing can overpower it. It is never never possible that cowardice and peace
can go together. But your power is inside, not outside. So you don’t show your
power of your anger outside. But just little anger with anybody – you will see
it will work out.
But first establish that… that position within you where you are
the axis, where you do not allow anger to sit on your head. That is the growth.
That is the growth, that you are at peace. Also… Another question? All right,
satisfied now? Both ways you should know: that one is the anger that is
detached – is perfectly all right; anger which involves you – work it out. So
judge yourself as to what it is.
