Shri Mataji and Sir CP go shopping in London

Icon_photo photos

On Saturday, the 14th of October, the Divine blessed us with what is now a rare opportunity. Shri Mataji and Sir CP decided to go shopping, to buy shoes and other accessories.  Shri Mataji led us on a magical journey through the shoe shops of the West End of London. In each one Shri Mataji pointed to many different types of shoes and handbags, touching many to assess the quality of the leather and craftsmanship. Yogis brought different examples of merchandise from all corners of each shop for Her to see and touch. She looked at each item carefully, felt the leather, enquired about the price and discussed with Sir CP the relative merits of each. Sir CP was keen to buy his beloved Wife a gift, but for quite some time She was unable to find anything that suited Her. Throughout the shopping trip, as you can see in the photos, Shri Mataji made endless jokes and humorous comments about the various styles of merchandise and their prices.

And so the shopping party progressed through large numbers of stock, only to decide that another shop should be tried and so on until we arrived at the inevitable- Harrods department store.  It seemed clear to many of us that She was doing more than just shopping since by vibrating the many items that She touched there would be many recipients of Her blessings, most of them unsuspecting shoppers who might purchase an item that had been touched by the Divine incarnate. Little would they know that destiny had chosen them to be a recipient of Mother’s love, hidden as paramchaitanya in their new box of shoes or handbag.

Even more importantly, as in much of Her public activity, Shri Mataji even now seemed destined to seek out the crowds of people, where the maximum possible number can receive the massive outpouring of Her Chaitanya, in the form of Motherly Love, that she emitted during the whole shopping trip. At one store, several sales assistants became enamoured by her Divine presence and asked who She was. They were told to hold out their hands toward Her and ask this question to Her directly, in their hearts. Shri Mataji looked at them, their faces glowing and their hearts melting under the influence of Her charisma and simply said with a wave of Her hand “they have it” The Divine responded immediately and they felt the cool breeze on their hands and above their head. Like this, throughout the shopping trip, people seemed drawn to Her without understanding why, and yet their faces showed that within them some heartstring had begun to resonate and their mind had become inexplicably silent. Such was their destiny that the Divine had to find a way for them to come face to face with the Cosmic Mother, and so they were drawn to the shops and streets that She chose to move on during this joyful day.

Finally, Shri Mataji found some shoes and a handbag that She liked. Sir CP succeeded in convincing Her that the price was agreeable and so he bought a gift for his wife.

Jai Shri Mataji

This experience is so touching..surely those seekers at shops are lucky enough to witness the presence of Shri Adishakti in Sakar.

This is true that once Shri Mataji has told in one of Her luctures that She goes to shopping malls and market just to spread her vibrations there and also to give vibrations to the public..

O! Divine Mother, it was such a great joy and heart-filled experience that our UK bro/sister's enjoyed, with your divine drive. Hope, we could also be a part of your divine journey somewhere in near future  to India. 

Those (vibrative) items will really be a gift from divine itself,  for the new seekers, that will take to their respective wardrobe.

Thanks for being with all of us Mother.

*** Jai Shri Mataji ***

Reading this, it really feels like you are there now, in Mother's presence that is so overflowing and complete! Thank you for sharing!

The Treasure of the Universe was walking through its Heart

Looking like She'd want to buy, really just wanting to give

Cared for, but really caring

Receiving roses and thorns

And hearts together with stones

Leaving traces of angels' wings

on bags and shoes and minds and souls...

The Treasure of the Universe

Walked through its Heart -

no news agency was there to report

except for that of Sahajaland

But if you ask all bags and shoes and souls

that thoughtlessly witnessed the event

No atom was left unchanged

and no soul unawakened.

I love the way Mother smiles so joyously in the accompanying photos.   What a Divine, amazing experience for all those that witnessed Her presence in the shops!


By Peter Corden from Australia on Tuesday 17th October

And as those feet in modern times

pass through those shops on England's way,

And as the counternance Divine shines

forth amid that crowded play,

And so the Great Adi Shakti Herself

touches and blesses and comforts all,

As She plays the Leela for Shri Shiva

with each shoe and bag and stall,

All takes place by her Divine hand

in England's green and pleasant land.

Salutations again and again !

how fortunate the shop assistants were , and how fortunate the people shopping were, they had gone to buy a worldly item, but were blessed with the world's most precious gift of awakening and darshan of the DEVI.


By Rajesh Sharma from Haridwar, India on Wednesday 18th October

After reading this and then reading Cristina from Romania's poem in the responses nothing more to write. Its Love, Love, Divine Love everywhere.....I recall one line from Mother's Amrut Vani, "Till now we haven't used the power of Love" and thats why this world is in jeopardy.

Jai Shri Mata Ji !!!!

Enjoy yourself
