Guest guest Posted January 11, 2003 Report Share Posted January 11, 2003 Jai Sri Mataji I feel sure it was partly the encouragement of the website. Today I was able to write a reply to an article in a local paper from a B'hai group where it was obvious the only way to reply to their plea for all religions to unite for peace: by announcing Sri Mataji is the Avatar promised by each of them (listing names and prophecies) and Sahaja Yoga is Her gift to humanity as the free means to discover the peace or Kingdom of God within. Thanks folks for the encouraging letters. Why does this site only allow me a little space while others seem to find lots more room? By the way I discovered a while ago that when lying in the water of the (Indian) ocean here I no longer sink. When I was young I could not float...especially feet. It seems to be that when in the water now the sahasrara opens completely and we become weightless. A few other people have found the same....in summer of course. Anyone else tried it? regards, Lyndal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks > > > folks for the encouraging letters. i am glad Lyndal that you were able to put your views to this religious organization. Founded in the nineteenth century by Baha'u'llah, Baha'i is an offshoot of Islam that bears little resemblance to its parent religion. Baha'i groups are divided into National and local Spiritual Assemblies. Leaders of both bodies are elected, and both fall under the jurisdiction of the Universal House of Justice in Israel. One of my friend's wife was a Bahai for about two years. Towards the end she discovered that the top officials were an-all male domain, and no woman was allowed at that level. The straw that broke the camel's back came when she wanted to go overseas for a vacation, and found that she had to obtain permission to do so. This is hard to believe but true - all Bahais who want to leave the country must report to the officials in charge. That was when she finally got disillusioned and left. If we SYs are armed with the Pure Knowledge that Shri Mataji has provided and syntesize it with the Holy Scriptures, there is no human or organization on Earth who can challenge Her. That is why there has been no western press attacking the www.adishakti.org website, although this was much feared by SYs three years ago. Neither have the Muslims done anything against www.al-qiyamah.org. On the contrary some Islamic websites are already upholding it and providing links to their readers. > Why does this site only allow me a little space while others seem to > find lots more room? allows 32 MB of space to any group although in the beginning it was 512 MB. There is talk that all older 512 MB groups will be downsized in future and a uniform allotment of space established. > By the way I discovered a while ago that when lying in the water of > the (Indian) ocean here I no longer sink.

When i became an adult i discovered that i could stay afloat with just slight movements of my palms, provided the body is rigid. We do not become weightless because our Sahasraras are open. We float better because we have learnt better co-ordination. The trick is to keep the body rigid. And if you are lying in the water of the Indian ocean at Ganapatipule it is the salt that keeps your body more buoyant. It is easier to float in sea water (salt) than freshwater or a normal swimming pool. warmest regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 13, 2003 Report Share Posted January 13, 2003 Dear Lyndal, I had almost the same words for you that Jagbir said. I was going to elaborate some on the experiements of bounancy you can perform in both fresh water and salt water. I used to meditate in my pool, when i had one. You can allow your body to suspend vertically with your head back, and easily control floating without any need to tread water. It is all in the lungs. As you slowly exhale you will slowly start to sink, at a certain depth of a few feet if you stop exhaling you will be suspended in the middle. If you empty the lungs you will sink to the bottom, where I used to enjoy a few minutes of meditation looking at the sky. In the ocean it is alot easier to float. obviously because of the salt. But you can still cause yourself to sink simply by exhaling all your breath. At least for me that works because i have very little body fat! Another symptom of youth is that there is usually little fat along with the coordination skills, that cause a child to sink easily in the water. I have even seen big fat people who nearly come out of the water it seems, because they are so bouyant. And no vibrations required. Bouancy is a mixture of displacement and mass. Fat has less mass than muscle and as we get older it is eaisier to float in water because of this. I assure you a meer 10-15 lb divers belt would cause you to sink straight down. It is all to human to believe into things like this. I prefer a much more practical approach to Self- realization. How do you feel? that is the question! What would get me curious is if you were actually walking on the water. Jesus did not leave footprints either, it is said. Jai Shri Mataji !! Love to you son, Ishmael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 Hello Jagbir, My name is Vonda and I have been affiliated with the Baha'u'llah and the Bahai Faith for over 12 years. The Bahai Faith is related to Islam in the same way that Judaism is related to Christianity. I have to go now, but I definitely want to communicate with you some more. I believe that Baha'u'llah, in some of His writings, has prophesied about Shri Mataji. Oh, the mysteries of Divine Unity! shriadishakti , " adishakti_org <adishakti_org> " <adishakti_org> wrote: > shriadishakti , " in2centre <supatni@b...> " > <supatni@b...> wrote: > > Jai Sri Mataji > > I feel sure it was partly the encouragement of the website.

Oh, the mysteries of Divine > Unity! > Hi Vonda, Welcome to the forum. i am sure all members of this forum would love to hear from you about Baha'u'llah's prophesies about Shri Mataji. Very slowly, but so surely, humanity is converging irrevocably towards the Divine Unity. It is generally agreeable that the Sure Signs and descriptions of the Day of Judgment in the Koran are that: 1) this event is inevitable; 2) there is a set time for it; 3) angels will descend to bear witness; 4) all people would be brought back to life; 5) there will be warnings and announcements preceding it; 6) prophesied Sure Signs of Allah will confirm Qiyamat; 7) Koran to be used as proof of authenticity to humankind; 8) there will be a Caller from within (place quite near); 9) the verse revealing Qiyamat will be collected from all over the Koran, promulgated, recited and explained; 10) many will not be aware that Qiyamat is taking place; 11) Allah will not address those hiding His revelations; 12) Allah will not be purifying the transgressors; 13) messengers of Allah on Earth to deliver Warning; 14) families will be bitterly divided over the Good News; 15) believers will be in bliss, the disbelievers dismayed; 16) Jesus would be one of the Signs of the Hour. All these Sure Signs have been fulfilled by Shri Mataji, as well as major prophecies of the Bible, Bhagavad-Gita and other scriptures. The aim of this forum and related websites is to give recognition to the interconnectedness of all faiths and traditions so that the human family are able to see the forest despite the trees. Please contribute your knowledge towards this end. warmest regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No group has yet admitted responsibility for the attack. But violence between opposing militants from the majority Sunni and minority Shia communities has claimed hundred of lives in Pakistan in recent years. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/2790493.stm Dear Ishmael, Vonda and SYs, The above is just one of the numerous murderous tit-for-tats between Shias and Sunnis, all carried out over doctrinal differences. The Shias, who belief in the Imam Mahdi, comprise 20% of the population and are at the receiving end. The Sunnis are particularly picking off the Shia elite like doctors and those in positions of power. Professor Akbar in his book Islam Today downplays the differences in Islam between the Shias and Sunnis. i have found this surprising. i will again have to say that the Malaysian Muslims are a far cry from their Pakistani brethren. Yesterday i had a talk with a Punjabi who has a number of close Pakistani friends. His stories have again reinforced what i have pointed in the recent posts regarding hajis and Muslims from Pakistan. Just like other humans there are the good, bad and ugly. i believe that entrenched religious fundamentalism in Pakistan is making more of them bad, and some ugly enough to murder in the name of Allah. Vonda, i will reply by tomorrow as my son/daughter had hogged the computer the whole day. In the meantime is it possible to get some Comforter specific quotes of Baha'u'llah? That will make replying easier and save time scrolling for such quotes. Thanks. warmest regards, jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
