After coming to Sahaja Yoga, Mr. Koli
put all the pictures of the Gods he had
in the ocean.
“If Mother is Shri Adi Shakti,” he said,
“I don’t need the other pictures.” But
he did not have the heart to throw the
picture away of the gods dancing at the
Feet of Shri Adi Shakti.
“Mother,” he asked, “I feel You are the
one who is sitting there, but what is the
meaning of this picture?”
“All the Gods had a meeting in heaven,”
Shri Mataji said, “because they did
not know what to do with humanity.
Whichever aspect of God was sent to
the Earth, the people troubled them
– Christ, Shri Rama, Shri Krishna. ‘I will
go as a Mother for mankind and I will
go like a normal person with all the
worries, sadness and happiness in life.’
Shri Adi Shakti said. ‘I will go through
everything and also through all the
mayas.’ This announcement of Shri Adi
Shakti was a blessing for the Gods and
this was the joyful incident when all the
Gods are dancing, so Adi Shakti is there
to help them.”
Anand Thandev, meaning “Joyful
Dance,” was the name given by Shri
Mataji to the picture. After this
announcement Shri Mataji said Mr. Koli
should make thousands of copies of this
picture and give it out to yogis all over
the world so each one could have one
in his or her house. It brings joy and
love to everyone.
