Montford also sent me an email trying to belittle Shri Mataji's ability to prove that She is the Adi Shakti in every Sahasrara, just as you are trying to do without realizing so. Simon must demonize my children because their witnessing Shri Mataji in their Sahasraras greatly undermines his claim that She is a fake. According to Abdullah Yusuf Ali in The Holy Qur'an: " Whenever a great or vital Truth is proclaimed or renewed, there are always shallow minds that are ready to dispute about it! And what petty and vain arguments they advance! They think they can discredit or condemn the Truth in this way, or render " of none effect " Allah's Plan. But they are mistaken. If they seem to succeed for a time, that is merely their trial. They may try to plan and plot against Allah's men. But their plots will fail in the long run. They will themselves be caught in their own snares. " But i cannot say that with a certainty as far as you are concerned since you unconsciously use more subtle, indirect ways to achieve the same end. i think you are trying to pass everything about SHRI ADI SHAKTI: THE KINGDOM OF GOD as mere visions by comparing them with the Dark Ages of Europe where superstition, paranoia, fear and ignorance reigned supreme. Charles Templeton writes about this infamous era in A Farewell To God: " Many think of the church as a sacred institution and of priests and the clergy as men wholly dedicated to the service of God and humankind. This assumption has not always been valid; indeed, it has seldom been so. In the Middle Ages, in particular, the Christian church approximated a terrorist organization, being the instigator and the protagonist in the indestructible horrors of the infamous Inquisition. In France and, later, in other parts of Europe, beginning in the fourteenth century and peaking in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, tens of thousands of innocent men and women — even children — were persecuted, arrested, arrested, imprisoned, tried in secret, tortured, flayed, hanged, or burnt at the stake in a protracted obsession with heretics, witches, sorcerers, black magic, and demon-possession. " i have already explained to Changedev regarding ordinary visions that can be induced by any Tom, Dick or Harry. Please check this link: shriadishakti/message/444 You should also know that millions of Buddhists are encouraged to have visions, a practice picked up by New Age gurus and turned into a mélange of astral traveling, out-of-body experiences and channeling. Anyone can acquire these abilities through practice and self-inducement. But meeting the Adi Shakti in the Sahasrara, a feat that has never ever been achieved before Her Advent, is part and parcel of Her Divine Drama on Earth. This is only remotely possible after Sahaja Yoga Self-realization and Kundalini awakening. There is indeed evidence of a new race of humans, simply called Sahaja Yogis by the Great Primordial Mother, on Earth: " The Mysterious Birth of a New Species. Unknown Man is the first declaration of a new species being born on Earth. The last time such an event occurred was thirty-five thousand years ago when Homo sapiens evolved alongside Neanderthal man. Evidence, both of a scientific and mystical nature, has been gathered by the author to give substance to the proposal that the coming new species will grow out of a seed that has lain dormant within our genetic pool for millennia. This book provides an extraordinary blueprint of mankind which reveals that we are richly endowed with miraculous, yet almost unknown talents and that these talents, when revealed, will alter our condition to bring the species into a " natural state " which hitherto has been reserved only for a choice few.In the past two decades the Western world has begun a completely new appreciation of mystical, Eastern teaching and with this fresh view the post-war generation has begun to question the old traditions and values, with science at last delving into " maps " of life and mankind that have been around for thousands of years, ignored in preference to rational thinking. Unknown Man explores these maps alongside the scientific advancements of today to reveal higher evolutionary functions within our glandular system, the heart and the brain which, when activated, can bring an individual into a " natural state, " much like that of masters such as Buddha, Lao Tzu, Bodhidharma, Raman Maharshi and Meher Baba — those unique pioneers of the enlightened realm of life — a realm that holds the key to the entire direction of the next evolutionary jump to be taken by man.The author blends science and mysticism, facts and speculation to create a vivid and unexpected portrait of the coming changelings: their appearance, their physical, mental and spiritual differences and the way in which we — the old Homo sapiens need to prepare ground for those already on our doorstep . . . . The ending of our century has more than its fair share of predictions and omens. No other century has such a wealth of apocalyptic prophecies surrounding its closing years. And yet interwoven through the visions of a cataclysmic end to our dark warring age is one very particular thread of light — the supposed appearance of a totally new being who heralds a new age of consciousness. " Yatri, Unknown Man, Simon and Schuster, 1988, cover-flap — p. 11. John, i am presuming that only great ancient souls who served the Adi Shakti since time immemorial will be granted the rarest of all privileges, the supreme ability and honor to meet Her in their Sahasraras. (i do not regard myself to be one of them.) " There are many great souls I know that have taken birth daringly into societies which are very much, I should say, deteriorating and are in danger of getting destroyed because of stupidity they do. " Shri Nitya-yauvana Devi, Sahasrara Puja, Cabella — May 7, 1995 Shri Nitya-yauvana (430th): Ever young and untouched by time as it is Her creation. Shri Mataji is trying to prove: 1. that She is indeed the Adi Shakti who exists in the Sahasrara; 2. that Lord Jesus' Kingdom of God within is a reality; 3. that She will continue guiding internally after Her physical incarnation leaves earth; 4. that humans need hard evidence of Her numerous extra-ordinary claims; 5. that Her mind-boggling claims must be experienced and verified by third-party observers; 6. that SYs should just witness Her Play and not react.. What, John, are you trying to prove? jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all. Nothing else was intended. > If you dont want my participation in your group please indicate. > J John, What has that 'interesting' article got to do with Shri Mataji and Sahaja Yoga? What are you infering by mere reference? Why has the Dark Ages got to do with this Age of Light? Your last false claim about Shri Mataji was quickly picked up by Simon: shriadishakti , " jagbir singh " <adishakti_org> wrote: > Now i am insisting that the Adi Shakti, not God Almighty, is on > Earth. For the record, this statement is incorrect. I will say no more publically. Those that know, know. J >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The writer, Sahajhist, was clearly implying that God the Father was incarnate on earth and that is not just a personal point of view. Jagbir challenged him on it and Sahajhist diplomatically withdrew to the position that nobody can say for sure. I suspect this is the old belief that CP is God the Father re-emerging. It's worth picking up on because, with Mataji dying, this belief could have a big influence on who takes over the cult. How about God the Father taking over? Just speculating. Best, SD >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> And John, just for the record, i must let you know that some readers fled this forum when you and Akplogan insisted that God Almighty was on Earth. Be assured that seekers will flee Sahaja Yoga when they hear similar claims. Since 1994 i have heard a few SYs claiming that Shri Mataji is God Almighty even though She has never ever claimed so. i was very agitated by such false claims but could not do anything since i knew i would be 'penalized'. Moreover, i was not sure of the difference between Adi Shakti and God Almighty. But now i am absolutely sure and that is why i told you not to put words in Shri Mataji's mouth. Newcomers get very frightened with such claims. i would have fled Sahaja Yoga if anyone had told me that God Almighty was walking on Earth, but for my children. So please thread very carefully, especially where Shri Mataji is concerned ......... whether at Cabella or in the Sahasrara. Fanatical SYs like you who make false claims cause far more damage than foolish ones. i have deleted both your posts and Akplogan's regarding the false claim about Shri Mataji being God Almighty. If you feel offended you are at liberty to leave this forum. jagbir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
