moksha and/or freedom

[Guest guest]

I have noticed that there are references to both attaining moksha and

to being rewarded in the next life for worshipping the devi in this

life; which to me says that moksha was never achieved. I was

wondering, what is the determining factor to weather someone who

practices SY attains moksha or simple works enough karma off to be

rewarded in the next life? IS there no guarantee of moksha in this

life?

 

Also, if the reason we as seekers recognise the devi and have this

opportunity to awaken the kundalini and visit her in the 7th seal

today is because of our past lives worshipping and so forth, why did

we not achieve moksha in our past lives? Why are we only able to do

this in this age?

There are liberated souls who have taken birth on Earth along with

the Adi Shakti, a fact told by Shri Mataji. We have no idea who they

are or how many are there. The Devi bestows boons to those who serve

Her and there is ample scriptural evidence to back this up. However,

no matter what mistakes and errors committed, these liberated souls

can never be tarnished by any earthly fall from grace.

 

Those souls still working to attain moksha will probably achieve it

in this life by taking part in the Great Event ordained for

humanity. But just taking part in no guarantee of success. One has

to really purify oneself in mind and body, a process that will take

years of righteous conduct.

To understand moksha better we have to understand what is

Hinduism: " Hinduism isn't really one religion; it's many

religions that interact and blend with one another. There is no

known founder of Hinduism, no creedal statements of faith to sign

and no agreed-upon authority. In fact, one can be a good Hindu and

believe in one god, many gods or no god at all! This is because, for

Hindus, contradictory ideas are not a problem. All reality,

contradictory or not, is seen as " one. " But there are two

foundational assumptions that almost all Hindus believe without

question — reincarnation and karma.

 

Reincarnation is the belief that the atman, a person's eternal

soul, must repeatedly be recycled into the world in different

bodies. In some forms of Hinduism, souls may be reincarnated as

animals, plants or even inanimate objects. Reincarnation is the

process that takes the Hindu through the great wheel of samsara, the

thousands or millions of lives (all full of suffering) that each

atman must endure before reaching moksha — liberation from

suffering and union with the infinite.

 

Karma ( " action " ) has to do with the law of cause and effect. For the

Hindu, karma means merit or demerit, which attaches to someone's

atman according to how this person lives his life. Karma from past

lives affects a person's present life, and karma from this life

will determine a person's status in the next life. "

 

The âtman is our true self but our passionate involvement with our

material world and search for happiness causes us to lose sight of

it. The universe can never provide perfect and permanent happiness,

however, because it, just like out physical being, is in a state of

constant flux. We can only attain true happiness through an

awareness of our âtman (eternal self) and the discovery of its

true relationship with Brahman (God Almighty) within us. That is why

Jesus insisted that we must enter the Kingdom of God within, which

is nothing else but the Sahasrara.

 

Each time a soul is born into a better life, it has the opportunity

to improve itself further, and get closer to ultimate liberation.

Most people live asleep, never knowing or seeing life as it really

is. As a consequence they suffer till someone awakens them to the

knowledge of the world as it truly is and so find release from

suffering. By achieving awareness of our âtman and its unity with

Brahman, we attain not only happiness, but also moksha, or

liberation from a chain of lives. One attains Moksha when one has

overcome ignorance. The ultimate aim of all is for their soul to

escape from this cycle of birth and death and rebirth, and be free

from Karma. This liberation process is called Moksha

 

Many humans experience righteousness, wealth and pleasure in many

births, while maturing spiritually. All souls, without exception,

will ultimately attain Self Realization, liberation from rebirth and

eternal life. But this can even take eons. Thus achieving moksha is

actually an extremely difficult task as it takes many rebirths to

awaken and earnestly desire release from this endless painful rounds

of earthly existence. (How many of our friends, relatives and family

members have this deep desire, and are both consciously and

conscientiously discharging duty to attain release?)

 

So why are we able only to do in this age? Actually humans have been

able to attain moksha over the ages but their numbers are far

inconsequential. Religions have failed miserably despite all efforts

to awaken their followers. Today humans are destroying themselves in

mind, body and soul on an unprecedented scale and have now reached a

critical point. That is why the Divine decided to sent the Shri

Mataji (Adi Shakti, Comforter, Ma Adi, Mai Treya, Tei, Aykaa Mayee)

to Earth and bring them to their senses, remembrance of their own

glorious nature and the assurance of the eternal afterlife. This is

the Age of the Last Judgment and Resurrection promised by the

scriptures and that is why a far larger proportion of humans will,

through bodily resurrection (kundalini awakening), attain spiritual

immortality (moksha).
