Mother (Meera) Let Your Love Light Shine

Meera does this by giving back to the world as a spiritual healer, saying: “I bring down the Light and establish Peace, also I help the people to surrender to the Divine, to remember the Divine and to be faithful and sincere to their religion or to their belief.” Her mission is to purify the consciousness of the earth so it can be ready for transformation, calling down to earth as much heavenly light as possible.

She states: “It is very delicate work and great care has to be taken to undo the knots, as there is danger for your life if the thread is broken. When I hold your head I am untying these knots. I am also removing other kinds of obstacles to your sadhana (spiritual practice and self-discipline). When I touch your head, the Light moves upwards in the white line.
