Guest guest Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 Dear devotees of the Adi Shakti, Namaskaar - i bow to His Ruh who resides in you! Of all the divine revelations to the children, perhaps the most priceless of all is the one revealed by the Divine Mother July 23, 1994. In his Sahasrara Kash asked, " Shri Mataji, what was Your original name? " The eternally youthful Adi Shakti replied: " Shri Lalita Devi. " With this divine revelation the Shri Lalita Sahasranama is identified as the Kitab Al Munir (Book of Enlightenment) that confirms the identity of His Ruh (Spirit). This Holy Spirit, coming by command of my Lord, has consistently and repeatedly proclaimed the Great News of the Resurrection (Al-Qiyamah) for the last three decades. They ask thee concerning the Spirit. Say: " The Spirit (cometh) by command of my Lord: Of knowledge it is only a little that is communicated to you. " If it were Our Will, We could take away that which We have sent thee by inspiration: Then wouldst thou find none to plead thy affair in that matter against Us. surah 17: 85-86 Al Isra' (The Night Journey) Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an, 1989.) The Qur'an confirms that little knowledge is given to the Muslims concerning His Ruh (Holy Spirit or Adi Shakti). Allah made it a point to mention His Spirit without revealing anything about it's nature. This seemingly frivolous act 14 centuries ago today burst forth in all splendor as His Ruh proclaims and explains Al-Qiyamah to all humankind. The Kitab Al Munir confirms the identity, attributes and esoteric nature of His Spirit that has come by His command to declare the Great News of the Resurrection to all humanity: http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_1-100.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_101-200.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_201-300.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_301-400.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_401-500.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_501-600.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_601-700.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_701-800.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_801-900.htm http://adishakti.org/book_of_enlightenment/sri_lalita_sahasranama_901-1000.htm The scant information 1400 years ago is now an Oasis of Knowledge for all Believers to drink. The Holy Qur'an, an indisputable revealed book, literally breathes with precise prophecies and fulfilled promises for all His children of various traditions. The Koran affirms that the Divine Mystery of the Resurrection will be explained and illuminated by Allah Himself in context of consciousness transcending history. According to H. S. Aziz: The Qur'an uses two terms " Ruh-Allah " and " Ar-Ruh-Al-Qudus " for the Spirit of God. Such is the case in the following references: " We gave unto Jesus, son of Mary, clear proofs [of Allah's sovereignty], and we supported him with the Holy Spirit [ar-Ruh-al Qudus], " (Surah 2, Al-Baqarah, The Cow: 87). " When Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember My favour unto thee and unto thy mother; how I strengthened thee with the Holy Spirit [al- Ruh al-Qudus], so that the Scripture and Wisdom and the Torah and the Gospel . . . and thou didst heal him who was born blind and the leper by My permission; and how thou didst raise the dead, by My permission " (Surah 5 Al-Ma'idah, The Table Spread: 110). " Go, O my sons, and ascertain concerning Joseph and his brother, and despair not the Spirit of Allah [Ruh-Allah] " (Surah 12, Joseph: 87). Note that the above quotations from the Qur'an make reference to God, to His Word, and to His Spirit. If one examines these references carefully, one could agree that the Qu'ran does indeed teach a belief in the Word of Allah, and the Spirit of Allah as well as in Allah the Almighty. Hamid S. Aziz (Islam For Modern Students) has this to say about the Spirit of Allah: " Some people have asked about the concept of Spirit in Islam, and there appear to be several views about this. Here, this concept will be examined using all references to it in the Quran. The word spirit is connected with breath and, therefore, with air. The breath is what keeps us alive and yet air was a mystery in that it was invisible. Spirit, therefore, stands for something very subtle. It refers to inner experiences - consciousness, conscience and will. It is responsible for revelation, inspiration, intuition and insight as opposed to knowledge which comes through the outer senses. The Spirit is by the Command of Allah:- " They ask thee concerning the Spirit. Say: The Spirit is by command of my Lord, and of knowledge ye have been vouchsafed but little. " 17:85 " It is naught save mercy from thy Lord. " 17:87 We may suppose that it refers to something very fundamental which cannot be explained in terms of anything else. It is by or comes by the command of Allah. It may refer to a fundamental force in the Universe which carries information or Truth, for Allah has created everything with his Word and with Truth. It is likely that the stage by stage condensation of the Spirit is responsible for all levels of the heavens and earths. " Allah it is who created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof. The Commandment cometh down among them slowly, that ye may know that Allah is able to do all things, and that Allah surroundeth all things in knowledge. " 65:12 " But His command when he intendeth a thing, is only that he says unto it: Be! And it is " 36:82 " He created the heavens and the earth with truth, and He shaped you and made good your shapes and unto Him is the journeying. " 64:3 and 6:73 " His Word is Truth, and His will be the Sovereignty on the day when the trumpet is blown. " 6:74 The Spirit ascends into Heaven and descends into the earth. " From Allah, Lord of the Ascending Stairways whereby the angels and the spirit ascend unto Him in a Day whereof the span is fifty thousand years. " 70:3-4 " The Night of Power is better than a thousand months. The angels and the Spirit descend therein by the permission of their Lord, with all decrees. Peace until the rising of the Dawn. " 97:3-5 These two verses speak about two different cycles of events - there appears to be a spiritual circulation. " Lord of the heavens and the earth, and all that is between them, the Beneficent; with Whom none can argue. On the Day when the angels and the Spirit stand arrayed, they speak not, saving him whom the Beneficent allows and who speaks right. That is the True Day. So whoso will should seek recourse unto his Lord. " 78:38 This refers to the Final Day of Judgement. The Universe itself is a cycle and will be wound up (28:88). Things begin with the Spirit and end with it. The Divine Spirit has been breathed into man and this is what gives him consciousness:- " So when I have made him (man) and have breathed into him of My Spirit, do ye (angels) fall down, prostrating yourselves unto him. " 15:29 also 38:72 " He directed the ordinance from the heavens unto the earth; then it ascends unto Him in a Day, whereof the measure is a thousand years of that ye reckon. Such is the knower of the invisible and the visible, the Mighty, the Merciful, who made all things good which He created, and He began the creation of man from clay; then He made his seed from a draught of despised fluid; then He fashioned him and breathed into him of His spirit; and appointed for you hearing, and sight and hearts. Small thanks give ye! And they say: When we are lost in the earth, how can we then be re-created? Nay but they are disbelievers in the meeting with their Lord. " 32:7-10 Note: - (1) the change of person from the third to the second - he has become aware of himself. He has received some of the qualities of the creator. (2) Three faculties are mentioned - hearing, seeing and feeling. These should be understood as referring not just to outer senses, but to inner ones, in particular to conscience, consciousness and will. (3) that " small thanks " refers to ungratefulness - people do not act according to the spirit in them. The spirit has become dormant. (4) The possibility of Resurrection is connected with the Spirit. " [1] The Kitab Al Munir (Book of Enlightenment) confirms the identity of Spirit (Ruh) connected to possibility of Resurrection. The incarnation of His Spirit, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, arriving by His Command to declare the Great News of the Ressurection, has been doing just that for more than three decades. Few Muslims have heard Her message and even less heeded Her. The Qur'an warns: Concerning what are they disputing? Concerning the Great News (5889) about which they cannot agree. Verily, they shall soon (come to) know! Verily, verily they shall soon (come to) know!. surah 78:1-5 Al Naba' (The Great News) " 5889. Great News: Usually understood to mean the News or Message of the Resurrection. " Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur'an regards to all, jagbir [1] H.S.
