Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 OM! I just picked up the February-April 2004 WHAT IS ENLIGHTENMENT? magazine. On page 15 it says: "Ammachi....is said to have recently given 2005 as the year for a predicted global cataclysm, either natural or man-made." I wonder why they wouldn't or couldn't quote her exact words. Anyone know anything about this? From my Medjugorje studies and experiences I know we are supposed to focus on the here and now and not be constantly thinking of the future. But authentic warnings are said for a reason. I want to verify if Amma did say any such thing. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 It is correct (not 100% sure about the year), and IIRC this was presented as an important part of the reason why people were urged to join Ammachi's birthday celebrations last Fall. It was discussed in this list, you might check the list archives for that period.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Yes, the info was distributed on a handout the last day of the Rhode Island retreat last year. It did seem to be a part of the reason people were urged to come to the birthday celebrations in Sept. 03. When Amma was asked about it in November in Detroit, She didn't say much. My recollection is that she told the questioner "that's why there are people like you in the world--to pray and meditate, etc." Jyotsna --- Ramlal <conte wrote: > It is correct (not 100% sure about the year), and > IIRC this was presented > as an important part of the reason why people were > urged to join Ammachi's > birthday celebrations last Fall.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 OM! Thanks to everyone for your answers and comments to my question. It sure does seem that something has to give sometime. I find it literally miraculous that we haven't been turned into nuclear dust decades ago. The more prayers and sacrifices, the better. And if it weren't for Sadgurus such as Amma I don't think the Earth would still be in one piece.
