Philosophy Propounded
Mother Meera refers to Sri Aurobindo and Mother’s works. But otherwise she does not claim to be following any tradition. She believes in the unity of all religions. Her devotees come from various religions and she accepts them and gives her thoughts based on the religion they follow. She says there may be many forms of god but the power is one.
Work Done to Spread the Philosophy
Mother Meera’s devotees have organized together and call themselves as Mother Meera’s Team. Mother Meera gives darshan and is silent most of the time. In her darshan, people go to her individually and she touches their head and then looks into their eyes for a little while. She acknowledges that she understands the person’s problems and gives them the light-force from the Paramatma. She does not give lectures but is seen answering questions of her devotees. There is no fee collected for the darshans. When asked whether she is an avatar she refuted it and said she was only a part of god.
