He (alone) knows the Unseen, nor does He make anyone acquainted with His Mysteries — Except a messenger whom He has chosen: And then he makes a band of watchers march before him and behind him, that He may know that they have (truly) brought and delivered the Messages of their Lord: And He surrounds (all the mysteries) that are with them, and He takes account of every single thing. " surah 72:25-28 Al Jinn (The Spirits) " 5748. The coming of Judgement is certain. But the exact time, relatively to our standards on this earth, no one can tell. Allah alone knows it. Even a Prophet of Allah, as such, does not know the Mysteries of the Unseen World, except insofar as they have been revealed to him by Allah's Revelation. 5749. Mystery, or the Unseen, . . . the Absolute Mystery, or Allah's Mystery, is something which no creature can know or see, except insofar as Allah reveals it to him; and Allah reveals such things to the extent that is good for men, through His chosen messengers . . . " Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an " See now, if I am Adi Shakti, what is there to be proud, because I am that? What is there to be proud? If I was not that, then I would be proud of it, but I was, so what is there to be proud of? Like the sun, you see, it shines, it is not proud that, " I am the sun. " Or if you are born say, with your eyes and nose and face like a human being, you are not proud, " I am a human being, I am a human being " Are you proud? In the same way if you are that what you are, you are not proud, you are not conscious of it — not at all conscious. I mean, I never tell Myself I am Adi Shakti, there's no need to tell, but it is so — what to do? Now God has chosen Me, I should say, to be the Adi Shakti. Alright, I can have it but, I just know what is there. As if, like some people think that Sahaja Yoga has been bestowed upon them, like some lordship, or something like that — it is not that. It is what you have become. When you become, you then must understand that you have become that.
