Yes, Jimmy, this is absolutely true. No religion has any
monopoly
over this Divine energy. However, little is known about
it because
it is subtle and very difficult to activate. Nowadays
there are
growing numbers of fake gurus/teachers who claim they
can trigger
it, while admitting it takes many rebirths to make it
inch its way
all the way from the Mooladhara Chakra to the Sahasrara
(Kingdom of
God). It is my opinion that only a Divine personality
can activate
it instantaneously. That is the why disciples of these
false gurus,
conditioned to believe it takes centuries, disbelieve
the claim of
SYs that it can be done instantly. But what thousands of
SYs are
saying is true since the seeker will have to
self-certify if they
feel the cool breeze of the Kundalini flowing out from
their hands
and head. Most newcomers at Sahaja Yoga public programs
feel this
cool breeze, the sure sign of spiritual rebirth
otherwise known as
kundalini awakening.

Yes, the truth can be overwhelming, especially so if you
are brought
up in the Christian 'truth', Muslim 'truth' or Hindu
'truth' and
exposed for the first time. Even worse is the shock of
knowing for
the first time that your cherished centuries-old 'truth'
has been
turned on its head. How do you think Christians and
Muslims will
react to the knowledge that the Last Judgment and
Resurrection is
not the doomsday End, but an age of great spiritual
renaissance and
the demise of all religious regimes who will be made
powerless to
grant salvation/moksa? This is the Great Event ordained
for all
humanity, the heart and soul of Judaism, Christianity
and Islam.
"It is clear, first of all, that today all three
religions lack any
authoritative note for man. They have, as yet, each one
of them,
sufficient number of adherents to give the impression of
continuing
strength, and this glosses over for them and for the
outside world
at times their terrible weakness. For each of them, when
scrutinized
closely, is blackened with sufficient failures to
prevent any
thinking man from believing in them. And, above all, all
three
persevere in making a claim which cannot possibly be
valid and true:
that they are, each single one, the true religion.
Each one of them, however, hides from the ultimate test
of its
validity and truth behind a wall of unknowing and
expectation. All
three chorus that only the "Last Day," when the "End"
comes,
when "God" decides, will it be clear that the "other
two" and all
others besides were false, and it (the claimant) was all
along the
true community of the one "God."
As Anthony Buzzard emphasizes in The Kingdom of God:
Present or
Future? "the coming of the Kingdom is linked
overwhelmingly in the
New Testament not with the ministry of Jesus in
Palestine, but with
the Coming of the Messiah in the glory of His Kingdom at
the end of
the age (popularly, but wrongly known as the end of the
world). It
is essential, therefore, at the outset, to make a
fundamental
distinction between the proclamation of the Good News of
the
Kingdom, which is at the heart of the ministry of Christ
and the
Apostles, and the future coming of the Kingdom which is
consistently
associated with His Coming in glory at the end of the
"present evil
age" (Gal. 1:4)."
Now that time — the "Last Day," when the "End" comes,
when "God"
decides — has come. The universal message of the Last
Judgment
and Al-Qiyamah (The Resurrection), the ultimate test of
its validity
and truth, has been delivered by the Messiah. Those who
believe and
take part in the Great Event ordained for all humanity
will be able
to start on the road to salvation.
But Shri Mataji is not making up all these Sure Signs of
Divine
intervention. This site is thus an open book and
challenge to all
guardians of religious regimes — priests, pastors,
reverends,
bishops, popes, rabbis, clerics, imams, mullahs, shaikhs,
ulema,
ayatollahs, gurus, swamis, pandits, brahmins, acaryas,
bhagwans,
granthis, gianis, lamas, monks, dalai lamas — to rebut
and prove
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi's message of the Kingdom of
God,
Resurrection and Last Judgment wrong.
The few ex-members from the late 80s and 90s have never
challenged
even a single-page of www.adishakti.org. How can they
when even
Muslims are silent about www.al-qiyamah.org? Given the
mindset of
Islamic fanatics ever ready to kill anyone who
blasphemes their
revered Qur'an no Muslim have even raised a finger in
protest. Let
those who believe in God, not a handful of aging,
atheist/agnostic
anti-SY characters determine if Shri Mataji is telling
the truth.
Let the priests, pastors, reverends, bishops, popes,
rabbis,
clerics, imams, mullahs, shaikhs, ulema, ayatollahs,
gurus, swamis,
pandits, brahmins, acaryas, bhagwans, granthis, gianis,
lamas,
monks, dalai lamas deny the truth because not only can
they best
understand the eschatological expectations of a messiah
to awaken
humanity entrenched in their scriptures, but also are
most capable
academically of refuting Her claim as bearer of the
Great Event
ordained for humanity. Do you think that the views of
ex-SY Jenny
Oliver, a mental patient of Wolston Park Hospital,
Australia should
be believed to reject Shri Mataji? Or should we take the
words of ex-
SY Simon, who claimed to be both the reincarnation Saint
Joseph and
Shri Rama, be believed? Who are they to enlighten us
about Shri
Mataji when their own mental faculties are suspect?
Shri Mataji has spent more than three decades standing
on the truth
about the Great Event ordained for humanity and
spreading it to all
corners of this world. She accomplished that while still
carrying on
all Her duties demanded from a wife (of a distinguished,
wealthy and
knighted Chairman of the Maritime Organization of the
United
Nations), mother and grandmother, is unprecedented in
the annals of
spiritual enlightenment and human achievement. Just like
Lord Jesus,
She has single-handedly stood on Truth and announced it
— against
all ridicule, hate, insults, derision, mockery, jeer,
sneer, and
sarcasm from family, friends, relatives, strangers,
fools,
fundamentalists and the followers of Simon's cult.
But absolutely nothing whatsoever, even Her incarnation
as Shri
Mataji Nirmala Devi, can ever tarnish the Devi within
where She
remains ever spotless and without any blemish, untouched
by even the
minutest trace of earthly negativity. The
www.adishakti.org site is
based almost entirely on the Shakti within. Except for a
few
incidences where it was necessary to contact the
physical Shri
Mataji Nirmala Devi, everything is based on what the
Shakti has
revealed from within. So the question of those who
reject the Shakti
does not arise as none of them have met Her. They may
have seen Shri Mataji in Cabella or India and accused
Her of pretending to be the
Devi, but have they met Her in their own Sahasraras? So
if they have
not how can they reject the evidence of those who have
meditated
with Her in person daily for years?
Just to prove my point it was the Shakti within, not Her
external
physical incarnation as Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, who
twice saved my
friend from committing suicide:
http://www.adishakti.org/witnessing_her_miracles.htm
The physical Shri Mataji was completely unaware since it
was the
Shakti within who did so. (Initially when i told the
local SYs about
this miracle they could not understand what i was
talking about
because the physical Shri Mataji was unaware of it.
Since She was
unaware how could i say Shri Mataji saved my friend's
life? Being
skeptical of the Shakti within they just swept this
miracle under
the carpet. It is indeed sad that such disbelief and
indifference is
a powerful negativity that affects SYs because followers
of other
gurus would have happily advertised such miracles as
proof of
divinity.)
The physical Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi is just a
temporary earthly
mirage of the Devi to give us a fleeting glimpse of the
Shakti's
eternal Ultimate Reality. The irony is that the same
external mirage
enlightens some seekers but deludes others. How is this
possible?
Well, if you ridicule Shri Mahamaya's external illusion
you will
conclude that Shri Mataji is a fraud. But if you accept
Her the Adi
Shakti will convince through personal experience that
She is the
Shakti. It is the Devi within, not the physical Shri
Mataji, who
either deludes or enlightens according to your mental
inclination.
So do not let your own ignorance deride the Shakti's
external
incarnation. That is why if you can get past this
critical external
illusion and begin meditating on Her inner reality,
chances are you
will succeed. Then, and only then, will you stay and
learn to become
your own guru.
Jimmy, you can become your own guru if your faith is
strong and
surroundings are conducive for meditation. Being your
own guru means
you allow the Silence within to teach you - this cannot
be explained
but can only be experienced. You need not even attend a
single
collective meditation or meet a SY. But group meditation
is always
better than being a solitary recluse, at least during
the early
stages. Chances are you will need collective meditation
to establish
and progress during the initial stages. Once you have
learned enough
and have your kundalini working well within you may
leave and
meditate alone. There is no hard and fast rule.

No amount of talk, doctrines or theories over centuries
have
transformed the religious masses. Religion is a mental
thing that
conditions and divides humans. Religion is for those who
feel their
god is superior to others. Self-realization is
experiencing your own
Self i.e., you are part and parcel of Brahman, an
eternal soul in
this physical body. Only the Silence during meditation
can transform
you from within to realize what all the prophets
collectively
taught. The religious masses cannot transform themselves
because
they are constantly indoctrinated. Meditation heals
because
you 'force' yourself to have no thoughts, hence no one
can
indoctrinate you. That is how you learn to be your own
master i.e.,
the cessation of others instructing and teaching you
their own
narrow fundamentalists beliefs.
Jimmy, you can overcome fear and lack of trust by
allowing the
Mother Kundalini to heal you in mind and body. This will
take time
and effort. If in the end you realize the Temple of God
is within
what is there to fear or trust externally? The entire
library of
enlightenment is within and not in churches, mosques,
synagogues and
temples. There is nothing to seek outside. So learn to
trust your
own Self.

In the beginning your mind, healed by the kundalini,
will enable you
to absorb and understand what the Truth - Divine,
Kingdom of God,
Comforter, prophets, Shakti, scriptures, Last Judgment,
Mother
Kundalini, Resurrection, Divine Feminine - is all about
(be assured
the subtle system is just one of many parts). In the end
your mind,
enlightened by the kundalini, will understand that only
the Silence
teaches; that only the Thoughtless State enlightens;
that only the
Stillness of Mind reveals!
