Dear devotees of the Adi Shakti,

 

Namaskar: I bow to the Shakti that resides in you.

 

i assure you that most Hindus are unable to silence critics of the

Sanatana Dharma. They just cannot defend it against non-Hindus. If

their Holy Scriptures claim the Sanatana Dharma to be without a

beginning and end, which it definitely is, then it must be present in

all the Holy Scriptures. The Sanatana Dharma should not be challenged

but most non-Hindus, especially Jews, Christians, and Muslims scoff

at it. Till the advent of the Adi Shakti's incarnation, Shri Mataji

Nirmala Devi, no Hindu was able to provide evidence - specifically to

Jews, Christians, and Muslims - that humans share the same collective

truth issuing forth from the One Supreme Soul.

 

But how is the Divine Feminine going to silence Jews, Christians, and

Muslims and compel them to surrender to the One Supreme Soul? - by

declaring Her Divine Message of the Last Judgment and Resurrection,

the heart and soul of Judaism, Christianity and Islam! She is the

Messiah of Judaism, the Comforter of Christianity and the Ruh of

Islam who manifests the eschatological expectations of these three

great religions and, by synthesizing them with Hinduism, Sikhsim and

Buddhism, leaves absolutely no room for any human to deny the Truth.

No human will grasp the Truth until and unless they unconditionally

embrace all religions, holy scriptures and their messengers - that is

the Ultimate Reality of the Sanatana Dharma.

 

SADA BHAVAH SANAATANAH, SANATANAM KAROTI ITI SANATAN YATI,

SANATAN YATITI SANATANAH|

SANATANASHCHASOU DHARMA ITI SANATAN DHARMAH

 

Sanatan Dharma is eternal not because it owes its inception to the

eternal God. It is eternal not because it is timeless and

indestructible. Sanatan is eternal because it is capable of making

all those who have faith in it eternal by providing them the

'ultimate knowledge'.

 

The Last Judgment and Resurrection - part and parcel of the Sanatana

Dharma - is capable of making all those who have faith in it eternal

by providing them the 'ultimate knowledge'. The Great Devi leaves

absolutely no room for anyone to deny the collective Truth of all

religions, holy scriptures and messengers. Whether it is feeling the

Ruach (Judaism), being born of the Spirit (Christianity), baptism of

Allah (Islam), kundalini awakening (Hinduism), realizing the shen of

Thian (Confucianism), opening the 1000-petalled Lotus (Buddhism) or

Dsam Duar (Sikhsim), it all leads to Self/God-realization. This is

the 'ultimate knowledge' capable of making all who have faith in it

eternal. It has been preached by all His messengers, sages and saints

all over Mother Earth since time immemorial.

 

SANATANAM PARAMATMA SWARUPAM PRAAPYATI ITI|

 

Meaning - The religion that helps us attain union with the eternal

soul is Sanatan. A follower of Sanatan dharma abides to the true-

path and which helps him to unite with the Almighty God ultimately.

 

All Holy Scriptures contain the priceless knowledge of Self/God-

realization and are part and parcel of the Sanatana Dharma. The

incarnation of the Adi Shakti Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi has spent the

last three decades explaining this collective truth and means of Self-

realization. She has revealed that the ultimate knowledge on Earth to

attain immortality in Heaven lies within your own being. You can only

realize it by meditating on your Self and remaining Silent.

 

Jai Shri Ganapathy,

SANATAN DHARMA

Feb 15 2004 6:58AM

 

The meaning of Sanatan is eternal. Vedic Dharma can aptly be defined

as Sanatan Dharma. In English, Dharma is defined by the word

'religion'. But the term religion is incapable to describe the vast

meaning of Dharma. In fact, the spirit of Dharma is so vast that it

includes things related not only to our present incarnation but to

the past and the future incarnations as well.

 

According to the definition given in the scriptures:

 

DHAARNAAT DHARMAH

 

Meaning- Dharma is something that should be borne all the time. Thus,

it is the powerful means that saves us from catastrophe and leads to

evolution. For example, Vedas are not only the means to attain

comfort in metaphysical world but they also show the path to all

round development and prosperity.

 

 

MEANINGS OF SANATAN DHARMA

 

SANAATANASYA DHARMA ITI SANAATAN DHARMAH|

 

Meaning- Sanatan Dharma, as the name suggests owes its inception to

none other than the eternal supreme soul- Brahm. Unlike other

religions such as Christianity, Islam, Zoroastrians and Buddhism

which all clearly show the name of their inceptors like Christ,

Mohammed, Zarthustra and Buddha, Sanatan Dharma boasts its inception

to the supreme soul Himself.

 

All the religions except Sanatan can be classified into two parts-

Pre-historic religions.

Historic Religions.

 

But Sanatan cannot be included in any of these two categories. It

existed even before the birth of other religions and it exists even

today. Sanatan shall exist in future also. History has witnessed the

rise and fall of scores of religions and sects. But, Sanatan has

withstood all kinds of upheavals and oppositions and continues to

exist.

 

Regarding the future of Sanatan, we have to keep in mind that since

it has no beginning hence it will have no end. So, it is beyond the

reach of 'natural-law of change' which states that one which has born

shall inevitably come to an end. There has never been an exception to

this rule nor there shall be one. Even the divine embodiments of

almighty God in physical incarnations had to see their end. Thus,

even the physical embodiment of even the eternal God is not an

exception to this rule.

 

Second meaning:

Sanatan has no beginning and hence no end. It exists right from the

moment of creation of universe to the time of Pralaya (the great

deluge). It is Sanatan not because it owes its inception to the

eternal God but because it is eternal in itself. It shall exist up to

Pralaya and shall not be destroyed even after Pralaya when it will

lie dormant but exist neverthless. With the beginning of new

creation, Sanatan shall rise once again to protect mankind and help

it prosper.

 

But all said and done one should not have a misconception that all

the other religions are false. Every religion guides the human being

to its ultimate goal. But these religions being historic and

propounded by somebody inevitably will see their end, of course

except Sanatan Dharma.

 

Third meaning:

SADA BHAVAH SANAATANAH, SANATANAM KAROTI ITI SANATAN YATI, SANATAN

YATITI SANATANAH|

SANATANASHCHASOU DHARMA ITI SANATAN DHARMAH

 

Sanatan Dharma is eternal not because it owes its inception to the

eternal God. It is eternal not because it is timeless and

indestructible. Sanatan is eternal because it is capable of making

all those who have faith in it eternal by providing them

the 'ultimate knowledge'.

 

To get this point better, let us think a little more deeply and

compare the different nations, which were once super powers at some

point of time in history. Greece, Roman, Syrian, Persian, Macedonian,

Babylonian, Phoenician, Egyptian were the powerful empires that once

held the sway in human history; but none of them exists today. Those

empires had everything- wealth, power and huge armies. But they did

not had the spiritual consciousness to sustain itself for a long

time. And that lack of such a capacity became the cause of their

extermination. But India did have such a capacity and hence its

religion endured every onslaught and exists even today. No doubt,

Sanatan played an important role in keeping our culture alive.

 

Thus, Sanatan has three distinct features.

 

The eternal supreme soul propounded it.

It is eternal in itself.

It is capable of making its followers eternal.

 

Now a question naturally arises as to what are the traits of the

followers of Sanatan. Let's explore it in the fourth meaning.

 

Fourth meaning:

SANATANAM PARAMATMA SWARUPAM PRAAPYATI ITI|

 

Meaning - The religion that helps us attain union with the eternal

soul is Sanatan. A follower of Sanatan dharma abides to the true-

path and which helps him to unite with the Almighty God ultimately.

 

This is the real characteristic of Sanatan, which helped India to

prosper in all walks of life since time immemorial. But now, we are

neglecting it and hence are facing the consequences. Those who

discard religious path are sure to fall. Even God has said regarding

such people:

 

YAH SHASTRA VIDHI MRITASRINYA VARTATE KAAMKAARTAH|

NA SA SIDDHIM VAARNOTI NA SUKHAM NA PARAAMGATIM||

TASMA CHCHHASTRAM PRAMAANAM TE KARYAA KARYAVYA VASTATAU|

GYAATVA SHAASTRA VIDHAANOKTAM PARAM KARTUMIHAARHASI||

 

Meaning - Those who neglect the scriptures and act in whimsical way

neither attain perfection nor any comfort and salvation. O Arjun!

Scriptures dictate the things worth your doing and unworthy of doing.

 

Even Manu says:

 

DHARMA EVA HATO HANTI, DHARMO RAKSHATI RAKSHITAH

 

Meaning - An exterminated religion kills the people ultimately but a

protected religion protects its followers.

 

 

RELIGION AND COMMUNITY

 

There is only one religion. No matter if it has acquired different

names in various parts of the world depending upon circumstances,

culture and tradition but the fact is that it must necessarily

contain all the good qualities capable of giving boost to the

spiritual upliftment of a man and his ultimate salvation. These

diverse elements of virtuosity have been named as religion. Anything

lacking this spirit cannot be called a religion. For example 'warmth'

is the distinctive feature of 'fire'. If fire loses warmth, it is no

more a fire. Similarly, the sun provides light and warmth, if it

loses these properties, it will be no more than a dead star.

Liquidity and coldness are the property of water. Without them, it

will not be water.

 

Human being is the supreme creation of the nature. Our ancient sages,

with the help of their tremendous insight had formulated certain

rules for the society-how a human should live and what should be his

behaviour in the society, etc. A man who doesn't follow any rules and

regulations is not a human. Such a conduct bound by certain norms and

regulations is termed as religion. This very quality of man

(Following the religion) makes him distinct from the animals. By,

instinct man behaves like an animal. Force that checks this fall in

human behaviour is known as religion. It is said that only those

shall live-individual or institution- who follow the religion; those

who do not follow the religion shall be no better than dead despite

having a living body.

 

Let's now consider the difference between the religion. Such as the

soul that is present in a living body is eternal, similarly the

religion is also eternal. That is why it came to be known as eternal.

Thus, religion has no end. But all the different sects or communities

that exist today were established by people in divine incarnations

according to the needs of the time. But, basically all the religions

are same despite their distinct rituals.

 

 

DHARMA or RELIGION

 

Dharma is the spirit of humanity.

Dharma is the heart to feel humanity.

Dharma is the examiner and investigator of the spiritual faiths.

Dharma investigates the reasons for creation.

Dharma shows the relation between the regulations and regulator of

the creation.

Dharma helps one for introspection.

Dharma is culture.

Dharma is knowledge.

Dharma is fortune and salvation.

Dharma provides eternity.

One who has recognized the truth that the same Atma exists in all, is

always in union with God and experiences Divine bliss, be it a

renunciant or a householder, and whether one follows the path of

action or not. Merely going through the Vedas and sacred texts or

listening to the discourses cannot understand the principle of Atma.

Just as a gigantic tree originates from a tiny seed, so also the

entire universe has its origin in the principle of Atma

But will mere words convince Hindus, Buddhists, Taoist, Sikhs, Jews,

Christians, Muslims and others of the ultimate knowledge of Self/God-

Realization. No! definitely not. If this was possible the various

religions would have triumphed centuries ago. They have all failed

collectively to enlighten humans. On the contrary, the opposite is

quite true today as the gulf between the religious faithful have

widened into an unbridgeable chasm. The unspeakable atrocities and

insane sectarian slaughter in Iraq between Muslims is beyond words, a

most unfortunate evidence of the abysmal failure of even shared

religion. Religious institutions have never and will never unite in

harmony ..... or make humans realize their own glorious divine nature.

 

So how will the Devi raise the consciousness of the believers to such

a height that they will be able to see the Ultimate Reality? How will

the Devi enlighten the religious masses to enable them to have a rare

glimpse of Self/God-Realization? What is the power of conviction that

will eventually silence all those who bear witness? The answer: It is

the irrefutable records of children granted the Cosmic Vision to

visit, witness, question and meditate with the Devi and all the

messengers of God Almighty. In fact it is more than that - it is the

human spirit meeting the Supreme Spirit within! That is the ultimate

knowledge of the Sanatana Dharma that will make all who have faith in

it eternal. And this realization of the Supreme Spirit/God Almighty/

Brahman within all starts with Cosmic Vision. The incontrovertible

evidence of this ultimate knowledge obtained through Cosmic Vision

granted by the Adi Shakti is given throughout http://adishakti.org.

This most profound collective and harmonious Truth of all religions,

messengers, prophets, sages, saints, gurus, mystics, primordial

masters, and holy scriptures since time immemorial reaffirm that the

Sanatana Dharma is eternal, and _will_ make you eternal too. Perhaps

the Hindus, and the faithful of all religions, will at last begin to

realize what the Sanatana Dharma really is.

 

Jai Shri Ganapathy,

Realisation of God starts with Cosmic Vision

Times of India

 

" On whose lips the question of realisation of god does not find

place? Human imagination will fail to think of a human being who is

untouched by this noble thought. Remember, realisation of God is not

the domain of those who have made it a profession and revel in the

vain glory of being religious. Description of glory and splendour of

God in pedantic and ornamental language and imparting some mantra

as " Diksha " is not in the least realisation of God.

 

True realisation starts with metaphysical experience of God. Despite

being physically with Arjuna, why did Lord Krishna say, " you do not

know Me, I am not this physical body " . Lord exhorted Arjuna to know

Him in His transcendental form from a wise seer. On being urged, Lord

Krishna showed His omni-present cosmic form. Thereupon, all

despondency of Arjuna was cleared. He was then ready to fight for

extirpation of evil-doers and establishment of dharma.

 

It is neither the abstruse philosophical theory nor subtle

intellectual treatises that can put human beings through God

realisation. Prahlada and Dhruva did not receive some mantra or hymn

as is usually shown in films and TV serials. Rather it was the same

ancient yoga which was handed down to posterity from master to pupil.

Mira and Dhanna the Jat could impel God to manifest in human garb by

intense devotion and profound love for God. Yet, Lord advised them to

attain him in His transcendental form. Lord Krishna told he had taken

this physical body in Dwapur Yuga. He will always create means to

help humankind to rise above the transitory earthly existence. Mira

and Dhanna then received the eternal knowledge from saint Raidas and

Swami Ramananda respectively.

 

In Bhagavad Gita, Krishna called it a supreme secret which only an

illumined soul can unravel and bestow on an aspirant when approached

with devotion and surrender. Knowledge of spirit is different from

secular knowledge. With mundane knowledge, one can earn bread and

butter and all physical comforts of life. It only adds to the karmic

load of soul. Knowledge of Brahman leads to emancipation of soul. All

kinds of formal and informal worship are only kindergartens of true

bhakti.

 

For a man in whom there is a strong urge for merger with universal

consciousness, true bhakti starts with supersensuous experience of

inherent divinity. It is revelation of the cosmic spark within us.

Celestial vision seen through the inner eye is in reality the

individual soul - the divine spark on which one is required to

meditate to quicken the pace of spiritual advancement. People have

been made to believe that cosmic vision of God is not possible in the

Kali Yuga. It is possible even today as the knowledge of Brahman is

one which continues to be. A genuine spiritual master does so even

sitting miles away. "
