Shri Mataji: About Sahasrara nowhere in the scriptures something was described

[Guest guest]

" Today we are celebrating the opening of the Sahasrara. On this day I

must say it was a great happening that took place on all the

humanity. It was such an achievement, which I never realized before.

Now I can see that without Self-Realization it would have been

impossible to talk to people.

 

Then this happened! I thought that how I will talk to people about it

because no one would understand Me and it would be a big mistake on

My part to say something about Sahasrara because even about Sahasrara

nowhere in the scriptures something was described. It was absolutely

an ambiguous description I would say where people could not even have

thought there is a realm beyond Sahasrara, and one has to enter that

realm where is the Reality.

 

That time what I saw around Me was darkness and unless and until

there are many Lights, people will never realize that how important

it is to have Light. "

“There has been nothing written about Sahasrara before. In none of

the scriptures Sahasrara is described. Nobody knew anything about

Sahasrara. They just left it at the Agnya Chakra — finished! They

could only go until Agnya and nothing has been written about

Sahasrara so far. And there is no mantra written about Sahasrara.”

“All three of my main kundalini teachers refused categorically to

discuss the seventh chakra. They felt that this chakra should be

encountered without preconceptions of any kind to interfere with

direct experience.

 

It is therefore with a bit of hesitation that I write anything at all

about this ultimate chakra... The Sanskrit name of this energy center

is sahasrara, which means “to multiply by a thousand.” In a looser

translation, sahasrara means tapping into the infinite spiritual

dimensions that lie beyond the personal parameters of consciousness.

Awakening the seventh chakra is most definitely an experience in

which we transcend our individual minds and enter into perfect

conscious harmony with the infinite spiritual wholeness of the

universe.

 

The ancient Chinese book of wisdom, the Tao Te Ching by Lao-tzu,

begins by saying that it is impossible to vocalize a name for the

ultimate God. In like manner there is no chant for this chakra. The

sound that comes to you in meditation upon this chakra is nothing

less than the sound of the universe vibrating directly within you...

 

Let me simply say that the seventh chakra is the swirling energy

vortex located right in the top of your head and swirling also above

the top of your head, where you transcend individual consciousness

and tap into infinite consciousness. “You” are gone. There is

no “you.” There is only infinite consciousness, of which you are an

integral part.

 

This egoless experience brings you into an ultimate state of

spiritual bliss. In fact, the remarkable thing about the seventh-

chakra consciousness is that it seems to be bliss itself. The

universal consciousness, if we were to give it any label at all,

would be Bliss Consciousness. This is all we can say.”

The Second Permission

 

With the explicit confirmation of Kash and Lalita's identities by

Shri TriGunatmika Shri Nirmala Devi, all relevant information was

reintroduced back into Shri Adi Shakti: The Kingdom of God.

 

However, there was a lingering sense of uneasiness as their father

struggled against rejection and ridicule from all sides. There was

disbelieve, even outright rejection among North American Sahaja Yogis

who knew about these spiritual journeys, and most turned a deaf ear.

Some Sahaja Yogis felt that Kash was being self-advertised; that

there were ulterior, selfish motives in writing this book; that his

father was throwing his spiritual weight around by claiming he had

Knowledge they should know. Others scorned and scoffed at the idea of

consent being obtained from Shri Mataji in the Sahasrara. They

regarded this attempt by a spiritual rookie to write a book, without

any Divine Knowledge whatsoever, as atrocious. Those bristling with

Vedic knowledge were furious that such claims being made. They had

never come across any Hindu scripture describing such phenomena

taking place. The fact that a kid was making such a claim immediately

after having his Kundalini awakened only agitated their minds

further. How could that be possible when they had spent decades

reading sacred scriptures, praying, fasting, meditating, and doing

penance just like their ancestors did for thousands of years? Kash

siddhis (spiritual powers) were the work of spirit possession and

nothing else. The father was told to shut up before he damaged Sahaja

Yoga, and stop Kash before he damaged his head.

 

The father thought otherwise. He looked at the deluded, divided

masses of humanity and then peered far into the approaching

millennium, and understood perfectly what Shri Mataji had meant when

She said that, " if you have to really bring them round through

discussion and argument, you must first of all be well equipped with

the Knowledge of Sahaja Yoga. " Hundreds of thousands had been given

Self-Realization (Atmajnana) but hardly a fraction stayed back. There

are so many thousands of religious and spiritual stalls in the

international bazaar that it is difficult for these spiritual

shoppers to make an educated choice as all profess to possess Truth

and the path to spiritual release.

 

It became apparent that something was really very wrong. The

Paramchaitanya had been activated to make everything work

miraculously but not a single Sahaja Yogi was interested in knowing

what it was doing! Prophet Muhammad made a single journey on a Buraq

and Muslims made a mountain out of it. Prophet Ezekiel had a vision

of " Yahweh on a throne and four winged creatures bearing the faces of

a man, lion, an ox and an eagle, " and Jews made a nation out of it.

Sun Myung Moon had a single vision of Christ and Koreans made a

Universal Church out of it.PU Here was a child of the Great Adi

Shakti who made more that a thousand journeys into the Kingdom of

God, and Sahaja Yogis made a joke out of it!

 

It became imperative that the consent of the physical Shri Adi Shakti

Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi be obtained orally to counter all doubts and

validate the stupendous Truth that had manifested in North America.

Kash's revelations confirmed Her insistence years ago that America is

a great spiritual land undergoing subtle change. Something had to

happen and it did happen. Moreover, She had declared — after the

universal opening of the Sahasrara on May 5, 1970 — that one day

every thing about Her will be revealed. More than two decades have

passed. When is that going to happen? How is Her Reality going to be

revealed? Who is the Great Messiah that hundreds of millions are

waiting — Sai Baba? Sun Myung Moon? Mother Meera? If Sahaja Yogis are

claiming that Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi is the One, what proof do they

have? If She declared that Her Truth will destroy all falsehood and

corrupted religious institutions, wasn't this prophecy going to begin

manifesting in a spectacular way? Who will be fulfilling Nostradamus'

forecast of " the new Messiah being one who will shake down the dogmas

of fossilized religious thought. "

 

On October 6, 1995, a transcript of this book and the 'miracle'

photograph was handed to Shri Mataji through Sahaja Yogi Manoj in New

York, USA, at Her public program.

 

A few days later on October 16, 1995, at 8:50 p.m. in Toronto,

Canada, Kash father and SY James approached Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi

after She had finished explaining to a Punjabi textile-shop owner

about the greatness of Guru Nanak and the Self-Realization that He

talked about. James wanted an answer to a question, which was: " Shri

Mataji, am I your son? " She replied without hesitation, " Of course

you are! " Then SY Jay Chudasama, the Canadian representative, told

Her about the intention of Kash's father to publish. Shri Mataji

replied that She had not the time to read the transcript, but he

should still go ahead.

 

By again seeking Her consent, both Her physical Being on Earth and

Her spirit Being in the Sahasrara were approached, and express

permission obtained.

 

But there was little faith among the Sahaja Yogis about Shri Mataji's

granting of permission. Hardly had Shri Mataji left Canada when he

received a call from Toronto bluntly advising that there was nothing

he could offer to the Sahaja Yogis as they knew `everything,' and had

been Her devotees for many years. In other words, they were senior

yogis; so what did he know that they didn't? How could an amateur

Sahaja Yogi who knew next to nothing about spiritualism write a book?

What Knowledge could he offer that they did not possess?

 

They had a perfect answer to their rejection reactions: Shri Mahamaya

is playing tricks with both father and son. Sooner or later these

spiritual pariahs will be exposed, and the matter laid to rest.
