" Did you see the sun, a light? "

 

A few years later on April 7, 1996 Kash's younger brother Arwinder

was asked if he had seen any sun or light when meditating with the

Great Primordial Mother.

 

He immediately replied that there was always a Light at Her place,

but was not the sun. He was sure of the difference as this Light,

though extremely bright, did not hurt the eyes. He added that unlike

the Earth sun that blinds his eyes easily, one can look at this

Light for as long as possible. However, he could not recall if there

were shadows or not.

 

On February 23, 1998, at 11.40 a.m. he was again asked about this

Light above Shri Mataji. He reconfirmed that it was always above

Her. He was then asked if there were shadows or not. This time he

immediately replied that there were none. He was asked if he was

very sure. His reply was that he was definitely sure.

 

On July 10 1998, at 10.35 a.m. Arwinder was posed the same question

as to whether this Light caused any shadows. Again he replied there

were none.

 

We must understand that for a child to say that light cause no

shadows in the Spiritual World, unlike the common daily experience

on Earth, requires the overwhelming confidence of an authentic

spiritual experience.

 

On May 4, 2004 at 7.30 am 10-year-old Lalita was asked about this

Light:

 

Father: What is above Shri Mataji's head?

 

Lalita: The Light.

 

Father: Can you look at it for a long time?

 

Lalita: Yes, you can look at it.

 

Father: Does it not blind you?

 

Lalita: It doesn't blind me.

 

Father: Is it different from the sun you see on Earth?

 

Lalita: Yes.

 

Father: Why?

 

Lalita: It's smaller.

 

Father: Anything else?

 

Lalita: It doesn't blind you. What else? ...... It's brighter. OK?

 

Father: Thank you Lalita.

 

This Light is always above the Great Divine Mother, and this Spirit

of God Almighty resides within the Sahasraras of all humans. Unlike

Her incarnation on Earth as Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi who is now an

aging octogenarian, She is eternally youthful and of unsurpassable

beauty. Kash, Arwinder and Lalita have always maintained that they

have never seen any woman as beautiful as Shri Maha-Devi who is

truly the Great Primordial Goddess. (Shri Saraswati, Laxshmi and

Kali are also extremely beautiful but none are comparable with the

Maha-Devi.)
