Kalki Avatar, the Coming Prophet

Swami Amar Jyoti

 

THE PROPHETS ARE A DIRECT DESCENT OF THE LORD on earth, Incarnations

of the Divine. They come to set things right, to harmonize, balance

and uplift, to make righteousness and truth prevail. Each time the

Prophets come, They are harbingers of a new age. They come at the

juncture when one age is closing and another is beginning. A Prophet

is not only one who makes prophecies, such as Nostradamus, although

in English that is a usage of the term. Jesus, Buddha and Krishna

are all Prophets, but They did not come only to make prophecies. Far

beyond that. The more accurate word is Avatar, which comes from the

Sanskrit avatirna: " manifest/descent from the Lord. " As Sri Krishna

revealed to His disciple Arjuna five thousand years ago, recorded in

the Bhagavad Gita:

 

Whenever there is degradation of Dharma (virtue/righteousness)

O Bharata, and growth of adharma (wickedness/unrighteousness)

Then I embody Myself

For the protection of the good (virtuous)

For the destruction of the wicked (evil)

To establish Dharma

I take forth a body in Age after Age

 

Bhagavad Gita IV: 7-8

 

HOW DOES THE SUPREME LORD WORK THROUGH HIS PROPHETS to establish or

restore balance and harmony, without which the creation would not

function? Does He leave His abode and come, or does He send His

emissary or Son? How does He take the shape of Spirit embodied as a

Prophet? What is this phenomenon? Who is the Son of God? Who is

Vishnu and Who is Krishna? Who is the Father in heaven and Who is

Jesus? Who is the Buddha and Who the Bodhisattva? How does this

marriage of the Spirit and mind take place? The answer is not new

except in context: God is omnipotent. He can assume any form.

Wherever He takes form, He does not have to leave " there. " He can

take an infinite number of forms, simultaneously.

 

Yogis have proved this, appearing in several places while never

leaving the place where they are. If a yogi can exist in different

bodies at various places simultaneously, then just magnify that for

the Lord—His powers are infinite. Those who are conversant with

Krishna's Ras Lila know that He danced with each gopi, or milkmaid,

simultaneously, and each gopi saw and felt Krishna is with me. It

may sound allegorical but yogically it has been proven.

 

God assumes form in a particular dimension and combination of

elements, such as on Earth, without leaving His eternal abode. He

can do this simultaneously in billions and billions of forms, in the

twinkling of an eye. If this were not true, how could God be in

everyone? He has already " become " everything. That is God's

omnipotence and omnipresence. We can easily understand from this how

the Kingdom of God is within everyone, how God is in everyone,

Spirit is in everyone. He comes as the Avatar and manifests the

force or power according to the mission of the age.

 

It does not have to be only one Son—do not limit God. At different

times and places He incarnates differently. Therefore it is useless

to compare one Prophet with another. Comparison is our human folly.

We want to compare and think ourselves great enough to judge the

Prophets when we cannot even remove our own headache. We twinkle too

much. When you repeat the name of God or the Prophets, be humble.

 

WHEN DHARMA—LAW, JUSTICE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, GOODNESS—declines below a

minimum level and it is beyond the sages, holy people or yogis to

raise the consciousness and purify the Earth, then God incarnates to

take care of His children. He comes with special powers and

bounties, among which are prosperity, beauty, strength, wisdom and

justice. According to the Vedic scriptures, human or Earth evolution

forms cycles of approximately twenty-five thousand years. God

incarnates in each cycle, about every two thousand five hundred

years. In the present cycle Lord Vishnu has taken nine Incarnations

or Avatars, among whom are Rama and Krishna. Buddha, the ninth and

last Incarnation, lived around twenty-five hundred years ago. The

Prophet of a particular age may come as peaceful and nonviolent, or

as a warrior to vanquish evil—whatever we have asked for or the

situation demands. To Him, violence and nonviolence are not

opposites but a means to uphold and uplift humanity and

consciousness; Dharma transcends both violence and nonviolence. At

any cost Dharma must prevail; justice will be done; humanity has to

be uplifted. In each age, the Prophet knows best what methods are

required to reach us to the next evolution.

 

Kalki, as per the scriptures, is the tenth Incarnation. The name

Kalki means literally, " of iron " or " machine. " It does not imply

that He is a robot made of metal, but that His birth is in the age

of iron or machines. The Vedic scriptures describe time in a cycle

of four ages or yugas: the Golden Age, Silver Age, Copper Age and

Iron Age. Our present age is the Iron Age, therefore Kalki is the

Avatar of this iron or machine age. There are varying opinions about

the time of Kalki's coming. Some interpretations say that it is very

near. Others say He has come already. These are not mere opinions

but commentaries by great scholars and pundits. The Kali Yuga has

been described as a time of adharma—injustice, unrighteousness,

untruth. If we accept some calculations, we have not even reached

the lowest point of this age. If that is so, imagine what it will be

at its worst!

 

The scriptures have described Kalki coming " as a blazing Light " when

He descends from heaven; the Second Coming of Jesus is similarly

described. There are parallel beliefs about the coming World Prophet

in various other faiths as well. Kalki is described as coming on a

white horse with sword in hand. Though in today's world of bombs and

lasers, a sword seems outdated, the Second Advent of Jesus is

similarly predicted to appear on a white horse carrying a sword.

Buddha is described a little differently. The Prophet will have a

halo of light around Him. This has been taken by some to be the

aura, but auras everyone has; not everyone has a halo. Everyone is

potentially Divine but the Prophets are already manifestations of

the Divine.

 

So either there are three Prophets coming together—because the job

is very serious and one Prophet will not be able to do it all (!)—or

the three are One, whatever name or label we give. Their way will be

terrible in any case, what in the Bible is called Armageddon.

According to the predictions, Christ will come and fight the anti-

Christ and his forces. He will not be nonviolent. Whatever the

manifestation may be, this is a time of great change, a quantum leap—

that we cannot dispute. Only the timing we do not know for sure.

 

ULTIMATELY HE WILL BE VICTORIOUS OVER EVIL. The mission of each

Prophet is the same: to uphold righteousness, to save the virtuous

and demolish evil. If previously a Prophet incarnated as forgiving

and suffering, like Buddha and Jesus, that does not mean that He

will come the same way next time. Even if the Prophets could repeat

the same drama in different details for the same purpose, this

present time is such, that not only is humanity in need of

uplifting, but also the Earth's evolution awaits God's intervention.

The planet itself is transforming into a higher dimension, so the

Prophet's mission has to be different. Much of what will occur will

be on the astral levels because the next dimensions, the fourth and

fifth, are subtler than our present gross third dimension.

 

There is no doubt that Kalki will come and save the virtuous. He may

demolish the evildoers—not every common one but those who are real

devils. Were He to be compassionate or forgiving of them, they would

become more wicked. It reminds me of the story in the Bible of Sodom

and Gomorrah. Abraham was a man of God. When he heard that the

angels were going to destroy the city, he had pity and compassion

for the people. He prayed, Lord, there are some good people there.

Will You destroy the whole city and everybody in it because of some

villains there? What if there are fifty good people? Will You still

destroy the city? And God said, If there are fifty good people, I

won't destroy the city. Then Abraham got more pitying and asked,

What if there are fifty minus five, forty-five good people? Then

will You destroy the city? God said If there are forty-five good

people, I will not destroy the city. It is human nature that when

God relents and yields, we ask for more. So Abraham said, What if

there are only forty good people? In this way it came down to

thirty, twenty-five, then twenty.

 

At this point Abraham felt self-conscious. He said, God, I have been

really insolent to You and taking too much advantage of Your

leniency, but one last question. God said, What is it? Abraham

asked, What if there are only ten good people? God promised, If

there are ten good people, I will not destroy the city. But there

were only four good people: Lot, his wife, and two daughters. Two

angels entered the city and were guests of Lot; right there and then

the people's wickedness came out against them. Lot's family got

scared but the angels blinded everyone and told Lot, Abscond from

this city safely. No one will see you. And eventually the city was

destroyed. There are many wicked people on Earth and they will come

out more so as time goes by. It will not be hidden anymore.

 

WHEN THE PROPHETS COME They trigger or accelerate karmas. Then

whatever is inside a person will expose, either good or bad. That

which was previously suppressed or hidden is exposed. In Krishna's

days, He brought out both the virtuous and the evil, exposing people

as they had never been known before. Krishna knew each soul already

and so will Kalki. The Prophets create situations—time, place and

opportunity—which bring forth both the angelic as well as the

devilish.

 

During Rama's age, Manthara was a maidservant, supposedly a good

lady, serving Rama's stepmother. But given the right circumstances,

Manthara came out wicked and became the cause of Rama's exile.

Therefore, according to Vedanta, we never take for granted: good as

good, or bad as bad, absolutely. We wait for exposure or unfoldment.

That is the way of the lila or play—to let it unfold by its own

natural laws rather than condemn someone ahead of time. Their coming

and Presence alone triggers exposure. In every Incarnation this is a

fact.

 

Jesus' disciples appeared to be all good people. They followed Him

and gave up everything. How many of them proved to be really

steadfast? Probably a few, including the two Marys—Mary Magdalene

and His mother. Nearly everyone else faltered—the cock crowing three

times, the thirty pieces of silver, etcetera. The Prophet knows but

He may not expose or declare until the right time comes. Those who

are afraid of being exposed, once they are, turn evil, reviling,

revengeful, inimical, negative and so on. Before that they carry on

very well: courteous, honest. Exposure is the test. Whatever the

Avatars do, we know that it will not be easy. If it were easy, They

would not need to come.

 

Why does God do all this? One very simple word—whether you are

Hindu, Christian or Buddhist—because He loves us. He does " horrible "

things if that is the only way we leave open. We force Him to do

that when we give no other choice. The only alternative is to not do

anything, but would God allow adharma—unrighteousness—to triumph

over Dharma—righteousness? That would be the end of the creation!

 

Very commonly we hear and read, God loves you, which is true, but

from the Vedic point of view, it is written that God loves us so

much that in every age He comes on Earth to take care of us. If He

did not love us, He would not bother to come and save us. Not only

does God love us—God is Love. What does this mean in relation to the

Prophets? They really love us—but They do not harp on it.

 

ALL LIFE ON EARTH—HUMAN, ANIMAL, TREES AND PLANTS—responds to the

vibrations of love. We have seen that plants grow better when we

lovingly tend them; animals respond to us better if we have love and

harmlessness in our hearts. If we were truly loving, we would not

invite destruction. When you come to love, pure love, you will

easily see why everyone, whether in family life, social life or

ashram life, is hankering after love. That is the only tangible

thing. Try to do spiritual practices for thirty or fifty years

without feelings—it will go nowhere, like bullocks with blinders

going `round and `round a mill grinding seeds; in the evening they

are in the same spot where they started; no progress.

 

You have to truly love and serve the Lord with a very pure heart,

not in competition with someone else or jealousy or prejudice

against other cultures and religions. You cannot get near heaven or

God that way. Your love has to unite with God's Love. What is more

consoling and satisfying than love? If you are trying to serve the

Lord to impress Him, you are doomed. Even Lucifer demanded from God

that he had been near and had every right to be near. But Lucifer

had lost the way and became egotistical, selfish and ambitious. Love

is not a matter of rights.

 

We do need love; and are hungry after it. That is the only language

we actually understand. God accepts love only when it comes from

purity of heart. If He comes on a white horse with a sword and

throws fire and brimstone, what other option does He have? Some are

afraid to read or hear about such things, but what if we leave God

no other choice? We seldom think about that. We do not realize what

ego has become: stubborn, demanding, willful, selfish. We have

difficulty in loving very purely, unconditionally, as if, by loving

the Lord unconditionally, we become nothing. This struggle goes on.

Therefore I consider His coming in a destructive aspect to be a

blessing in disguise, His mercy. God sees our deeds and our hearts,

but mainly the heart. Whatever is based upon ego separation is the

greatest and worst sin. That is blindness, which is exactly what ego

is.

 

Humility softens us, purifies us and takes us out of these stubborn

ruts. It is an indispensable prerequisite to reach the chamber of

love. The meek shall inherit the Earth. True humility purifies the

heart. Those who are proud, arrogant, willful, ambitious,

competitive, jealous and untruthful cannot love the Lord, even if

they profess to. They eventually prove to be revengeful betrayers.

Why? Because they were not truly humble in the first place! They may

have looked good simply because they were yet to be exposed. They

did not love the Lord or their Master, they cared only for

themselves.

 

Today it is a common " philosophy " that unless you love yourself, you

cannot love others. Quite the reverse. If it were the True Self,

that would be different, but those who proclaim this mean to love

themselves: their ego and mind. That is the travesty or perversion

of this age, the Kali Yuga—boosting the ego. The only language

through which we can unite with the Lord/True Self is love, and

that is the meaning of unconditional love. Every other love is

conditioned and therefore selfish, possessive, attached, which

brings in insecurity and weakness.

 

Kalki will help us. The Second Advent of Christ will help us. That

is what the Prophets come for; that is Their work. Allow Them to do

it. Stand by Them. Those who stand by God are devotees. Krishna

openly said: I have come to save my devotees. It was not partiality;

He came to save the virtuous. So if you want God's manifestation or

birth on Earth, if you want to be His instrument, you have to be

pure-hearted.

 

That ego-demolishing or humbling is what makes you wise. It is

genuine love that God sees, in which ego is non-existent, or at

least humbled. If you have that, the Prophet is with you.

Distinguish between true goodness and so-called goodness. When Jesus

sat at the last supper and exposed his own disciples, they all

shuddered, fearing what He might say. Some would deny Him. Some

would betray Him. Others would leave Him. Had He said more, perhaps

only a few would have remained.

 

WHO WILL STAND BY THE COMING AVATAR? IT WILL BE MULTITUDES. He

cannot do His work alone. It will be a colossal destruction. The

real test is when we are put against the wall, tight-cornered. Then

our true nature comes out. Do you think, therefore, that the coming

Prophet cannot distinguish? Many surprises may follow; you may be

alarmed.

 

A wound or sickness must be exposed by a doctor so it can be healed.

Hiding the disease from the doctor will not help. You may not

welcome exposure but accept it with humility if it is true. Then God

will clear it and clean it. This the language of love: He means good

even when it is painful. When a doctor operates, it is very painful,

but then he puts on a balm to heal you. God and Gurus do the same:

They may seem hurtful at times but then They put a balm on the

injury, curing it nicely—if you humbly allow Them.

 

Have faith. He will take care of your salvation. Live for God's

sake; eat for God's sake; look after your family for God's sake;

earn money for God's sake; be charitable for God's sake; use your

talents for God's sake; sing for God's sake. If you are fearful,

your love is deficient. He does not like us to fear Him. When you

purely, fully love Him, you will be free from all anxiety, fear,

worry and doubt. Instead of focusing on your deficiencies, just love

the Lord. There is nothing greater than that.

Dear Jagbir and All,

 

The main thing is that God does not want us to fear Him, but to love Him. He is

coming as Shri Kalki because He loves His devotees. And He is coming as Shri

Kalki to change the world for His devotees into a new Golden Age, where the evil

will not hold dominance anymore, but where peace, truth and righteousness can

finally reign again.

 

In order to achieve that He comes with His heavenly army to change the modus

operandi (from dominance by evil forces to the reign of the good).

 

There is a war in the heaven to achieve this and it is not pretty, because any

war is not pretty. However, it needs to happen in order to restore Dharma upon

the Earth. The coming of Shri Kalki ushers in all these changes where Adharma is

overcome by Dharma, and Dharma is therefore restored upon the Earth again.

 

John, the Revelator, sees and reveals to us about the coming of Shri Kalki and

how Shri Kalki will fight the adharmic forces. In no way, are we to be fearful,

but we are to rejoice that Good and not Evil will again hold sway upon the

Earth. The Devotees of God have absolutely nothing to be afraid of, but can

rejoice that a New Age, the Golden Age will be ushered in by Shri Kalki.

 

(In Chapter 1, Verse 1 John who had this revelation writes:

 

1. The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show to His

bond-servants (i believe bond-servants are self-realized persons as we know it

in Sahaja Yoga) the things which must shortly take place; and He sent and

communicated it by His angel to His bond-servant John.

 

The Coming of Christ....

 

" And I saw heaven opened; and behold, a white horse.... (this could be the white

light of the Holy Spirit that is manifesting in Sahaja Yoga through the Advent

of Shri Mataji).... and He who sat upon it is called " Faithful and True " ; and in

righteousness He judges and wages war.... (Shri Mataji has said that our 'hands

will speak and judge us'; this refers to the vibratory awareness that has come

on Earth due to Shri Mataji's opening up of the final psychosomatic centre of

the Primordial Sahasrara, a.k.a. the Kingdom of God within human beings).

 

And His eyes are a flame of fire....(power of the Agnya Centre of Christ), and

upon His head are many diadems....(Sahasrara's beautiful 'thousand-petalled

lotus')....and He has a name written upon Him which no one knows except Himself.

 

And He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood; and His name is called " The Word

of God. "

 

And the armies which are in heaven....(self-realized souls are in Heaven within

their souls, even while in their physical bodies on Earth)....clothed in fine

linen, white and clean (refers to their state of Self-Realization or Second

Birth of the Spirit)....were following Him on white horses....(Shri Mataji has

said that Shri Kalki is manifesting through Sahaja Yogis who are Realized Souls

or Born Again of the Spirit Persons).

 

And from His mouth....(Centre of Visshuddhi, which has to do with communication

at all levels)....comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may smite the nations;

and He will rule them with a rod of iron.... (the name Kalki means literally,

" of iron " )....and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath of God, the

Almighty....(this is God in the form of Shri Kalki fighting evil to bring back

the Good for His devotees).

 

And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, " KING OF KINGS, AND LORD

OF LORDS. "

 

(The next bit sounds very fearsome, but if you read it very carefully, you will

see the Scriptures are talking about the Anti-God forces, and not those who Love

God, and it describes how Judgment Time will be for the Anti-God forces, because

they cannot forever continue, even for their own good defying the Good or God):

 

And I saw an angel standing in the Sun; and he cried out with a loud voice,

saying to all the birds which fly in midheaven, " Come, assemble for the great

supper of God;

 

In order that you may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the

flesh of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them and the

flesh of all men, both free men and slaves, and small and great " ....(of the

adharmic forces, it must be remembered....not of the forces of Good or God).

 

And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies, assembled to

make war against Him who sat upon the horse, and against His army. (Revelations

19:11-19)

Dear Semira,

 

The tail-end of the Iron Age is now merging into the Age of Aquarius

or Satya Yuga. Shri Mataji explains:

 

" So, now a New Age has started which is called the Age of Aquarius,

(Kumbha) meaning the pitcher carrier of spiritual holy water that is

the work of Kundalini. The activity of the Kundalini is like the sap

of the tree that rises and nourishes all parts of the tree and does

not get stuck at one flower (subtle centre).

 

Moreover these are special times. This is the Resurrection Time (Al-

Qiyamah). The Last Judgment is done by the Kundalini. On the

fingertips one can feel oneself and can judge oneself. Moreover the

All-pervading power has become very activated, so the Kali Yuga

(these modem times or Age of Darkness) is passing into Krita Yuga of

Brahma Chaitanya (activated All-pervading power). This is helping

the en-masse enlightenment and self realisation.

 

After this will be Satya Yuga (Age of Truth). We have to take

advantage of this activity of the Brahma Chaitanya by all the time

being corrected with the All-pervading Power and achieving our

realisation and establishing it. After such a state a person becomes

very dynamic and compassionate. His race, sex, nationality and age

do not hamper his dynamic life. "

 

Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi

 

 

Only an Incarnation can commence a new Yuga (age) and they do not

know Shri Mataji has done just that.

 

But that does not mean we are going to have an earthly paradise

soon. According to the Qur'an the present Night of Power

(Resurrection) will end in the Day of Noise and Clamor (Doomsday).

The incarnation of the Divine Mother is but a merciful reprieve to

delay the manifestation of Shri Kalki, the Man on the White Horse

prophesied in the Hindu Holy Scriptures. The sending forth of the

Comforter by Lord Jesus to warn humankind of the Last Judgment is

necessary prior to His Second Coming of death and destruction. The

scriptures of Islam, Hinduism and Christianity are in complete

agreement that Lord Jesus will come to destroy the evil forces, that

His Second Coming will manifest as prophesied. Whether it is Jesus

being the Sign of the Hour (Qur'an) or Shri Kalki (Puranas) or

Second Coming (Bible) these three major religions confirm that the

same destructive End will be completed by Shri Jesus.

 

So after the Iron Age humans are supposed to begin experiencing

Satya Yuga. The SYs are the first to confirm and understand Satya

Yuga, also known as Krita Yuga or Age of Purity:

 

And the minds of those who live at the end of the Kali age, shall be

awakened, and shall be as pellucid as crystal.

The men who are thus changed by virtue of that peculiar time,

Shall be as the seeds of human beings,

And shall give birth to a race who shall follow the laws of the

Krita Age, the Age of Purity.

 

Vishnu Purana 4.24

 

 

Only those having their Self-realization are having their minds

awakened to participate in the Last Judgment and Resurrection. The

Adi Shakti has indeed given (second) birth to a race that shall

follow the laws of the Krita Age, the Age of Purity. Her Divine

Message is awakening the minds of those who live at the present end

of the Kali age. The vast majority of humanity has no idea of what

is actually taking place on Earth and are still living in the Iron

Age. Kali Yuga has still to run its course of death and destruction.

However, a small but increasing number of humans are being stirred

awake by conscience and begun looking for the Sure Signs of the

Divine. Despite that they yet have no idea that Satya Yuga has

actually begun. But they will over time.
