The Case of the Double Witnesses

Summary — The Case in One Page

The Case of Double Witnesses is best understood as one continuous evidentiary sequence. Before departure for Camp Interval, the family invited the MahaDevi and Her Heavenly Hosts. Kash then reported that the MahaDevi said She would come with Her Deities to witness the Guru Puja. The book subsequently records Her presence with Shri Shiva, other Sahaja Yogis detecting Shri Shiva, Divine witnessing of the earthly gathering, synchronized Divine participation, Kash witnessing his own physical form, and the completion of the Guru Puja in the Sahasrara.

The Guru Puja

“In Sahaja Yoga the Guru Puja has a very different significance from any other Guru Puja. When you worship your Guru, you are also worshiping the Guru within you . . .

The quality of a Guru first and foremost is that he makes you meet God. It means he raises the Kundalini and establishes the relation between the All-Pervading Power. As your Guru is the Adi Shakti, we make that person also meet the Adi Shakti. Then you have another advantage that when you give them Realization you not only make them feel the union with the Divine Power, but you can also make them meet the Divinity itself, the Source of Divine Power.” PK

Shri Astami-chandra-vibhrapadalika-sthala-sobhita Shri Nirmala Devi

Detachment, Guru Puja, Avignon, France — July 8, 1990

“Now the Time has come to start talking, announcing, telling about it to everyone. Otherwise the world would say that we never knew about it.”
Shri Nistraigunya Shri Nirmala Devi

The Canadian Guru Puja of 1994 was held at Camp Interval in Quebec on June 24 and organized by SY Robert and Lisa McNeil. This was a very beautiful setting beside a large lake against a backdrop of hills, about two hours drive from Montreal. Sahaja Yogis from America and Canada attended this three-day event, including Kash and his family.

Before leaving the whole family meditated and invited the Spirit of the Living God and Her Heavenly Hosts to witness the Puja. This was the first time the Great Adi Shakti within was requested to be present at Her own Puja on Earth, though by now it was clear that She witnessed all from within the Thousand-Petalled Lotus.

Kash also meditated and after reaching Shri Mataji in his Sahasrara, bowed in Namaskar. She requested Kash to meditate. When it was over Shri Maha Shakti informed him that She would come with Her Deities to witness the Guru Puja at Camp Interval, the first time that the Great Supreme Mother informed that She would do so.

Kash informed his father what Shri Mataji had told him. It was an extremely joyous moment, and very humbling at the same time. Humbling because the highest manifestation of God Almighty agreed to come down to Earth to witness the Puja. It was indeed difficult to fathom that the Great Adi Shakti Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi will be coming to Val David, Canada.

A few times Kash’s father did think that perhaps She was just trying to please him by saying so, but will not come from the Kingdom of God down to this Earth? But it didn’t matter. He was just blissed out by Her reply and kind gesture.

The family then left for Val-David.

The Witness on the Mountain

The next day a trekking event was organized to the nearby mountain. A number of Sahaja Yogis participated, but most dropped back along the long, exhausting, winding path. The few physically fit reached the summit, rested for a while, and then decided to meditate. The Divine Cool Wind blew all around as the meditation progressed.

Kash then felt the presence of Shri Adhiparasakthi Shri Nirmala Devi and Shri Shiva sitting and meditating close-by. Though invisible, he picked their exact sitting positions and identity through the vibrations flowing from his hands.

Shri Shiva was sitting and meditating in front of him and the Great Adi Shakti, who was emitting different vibrations, was sitting and meditating on his left. Kash was very sure of this Reality as he had used these vibrations in his Sahasrara a number of times to identify the invisible Spirit Beings.

He was very sure that his vibrations, like his other physical senses, were telling him the Truth.

The presence of Shri Shiva and Shri Adi Shakti confirmed that She had kept Her word to the family. She was indeed there in the physical world!

The Video and the Tears

In the late afternoon a video titled Sahaja Yoga and the American Experience was shown. It was an excellent production. The powerful, searing message of the timeless human struggle for divinity, equality, justice, peace, hope and freedom, and His Promise of His Kingdom being fulfilled right before their eyes must have moved many Sahaja Yogis close to tears, for there was an overwhelmingly emotional silence all around. They knew that God was carrying out His Promise! The multi-cultural, multi-racial, multi-religious and multi-lingual congregation of Self-Realized souls was certain that God cares, listens, and communicates! They knew that He is not a Hindu prabhu but His Adi Shakti permeates their scriptures. They were convinced that He is not a Jewish yahweh but His Shekinah exists in their Old Testament. They had absolute faith that He is not a Christian god but His Holy Spirit is embedded in their Bible. They had absolute conviction that He is not a Muslim allah but His Ruh is camouflaged in the Qur’an. They knew that He is God Almighty, the Supreme Creator far above and absolutely beyond the hypocritical praise, empty pride, selfish possession and scriptural speculation of religious fools, fundamentalists, and external Idols. They knew with their hearts, minds and souls that the Promised Resurrection was taking place.

Kash, himself on the verge of tears, felt the charged atmosphere and went into Sahaj Samadhi. Before him sat the Supreme Mater Sanctissima (Most Holy Mother) Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, with tears of compassion welling in Her eyes. She also was watching the video and could not hold back Her feelings, which were being collectively expressed by Her children. Kash just watched Her and was at a loss for words. It was the first time that he had seen the Great World Soul with tears in Her eyes and he could hardly control himself anymore.

He came out of meditation and informed his father standing beside him about what he had witnessed. There was no reply as his father was trying his best to contain himself, so intense was the universal Message for human emancipation.

The Havan and the Heavenly Hosts

At night a havan was organized at the edge of the lake, bordered by a small forest nearby. Grey clouds shrouded the mountains and a beautiful full moon reflected light onto Earth.

The Sahaja Yogis slowly gathered around the site of the Sacred Fire. SY Jay Chudasama gave a brief introduction about the havan and its significance. Kash went into Sahaj Samadhi and reached his Sahasrara. The Divine Light shone ever so dazzlingly from behind the Eternal Throne of the Great Cosmic Mother as Shri Kama-Rupini Shri Nirmala Devi sat in Bliss and Joy. The Spirit Beings of the Holy One were all already present, squatting in a semi-circle in front of Shri Adi Shakti, a fire burning in the middle. Al-Muzzammil (The Enwrapped) Shri Nirmala Devi was sitting majestically on the Golden Throne and looking regal in the enwrapped sari, with a crown on Her head. He floated down into his spiritual body, bowed down and conveyed his greetings to the Great Eternal Mother and the Divine Deities. They all bowed back to him in Namaskar.

In his Sahasrara Kash could see that all the Sahaja Yogis at Camp Interval also sitting around the same sacred fire, with Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi and all the Messengers of God sitting behind them. The Great Ancient Goddess and Her Celestial Beings were actually witnessing the whole ceremony in the spiritual Sahasrara as it was taking place on the physical Mother Earth. Kash could see himself also sitting among the Sahaja Yogis at Camp Interval, Quebec, Canada. His spiritual form in the Kingdom of Sadashiva was witnessing his material form on Mother Earth!

The sacred fire was lit and ghee poured onto it. The Great Divine Feminine and the Immortal Beings watched in quiet dignity and Joy. All the Sahaja Yogis uttered the incantations and began to burn the negativity that was affecting the human planet. The human race had again begun the sacred spiritual ceremonies that had been initiated by the Spiritual Elders since time immemorial. The Mother Earth was again being spiritually purified by a handful of supremely blessed beings.

The first negativity affecting Mother Earth was uttered and samaghri offered to the fire, together with the mantra Om svaha. Exactly at this point all the Celestial Beings in the Sahasrara also raised their right hand from the Mooladhara all the way up along the Sushumna Nadi to the Sahasrara, circled their heads three and one-half times, uttered the mantra Om svaha, and threw the negativity into the Sacred Fire. The Mighty Gods had joined humans in the fight for universal Dharma, the beginning of final battle on Earth between the forces of Darkness and Light! Every negativity mentioned was simultaneously burned off by the Divine Unity of The Almighty Creator in each and every Sahasrara of each and every Sahaja Yogi. Little did they realize the awesome, invisible Cosmic Warriors summoned to join humans willing to fight for the Dharma that sustains the universe.

The Dance of Joy

After the havan was over everyone adjourned to the main hall, which was actually a typical North American log cabin. But this one was huge and able to accommodate about two hundred people.

First there was meditation and then songs of praise to the Great Primordial One were sung. Again Kash went into samadhi and reached the Land of Divine Radiance. He met Shri Jagdamba, bowed to Her, and greeted the rest. The Sahaja Yogis were meditating on the soft clouds of the Sahasrara, with the Great Sacred Mother and the Spirit Beings of the Holy One sitting around them. There was no log cabin, no ceilings, no roof, or anything else — just the Sahaja Yogis sitting in the vast open skies of the Sahasrara, encircled by Shri Mahadevi and the Eternal Beings. The Sahaja Yogis were completely unaware of the Realm of Reality that their Great Beloved Mother Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi had immersed them into.

The 150 or so Sahaja Yogis began to sing and clap as the tablas and guitars picked up pace. There were songs in Sanskrit, English, Marathi, and Hindi. All the Universal Beings participated enthusiastically in this expression of Joy, singing and clapping along. The Divine Deities had also joined the Sahaja Yogis.

The songs and music went on and on. As the tempo picked up so did the ecstasy of the singers and the intensity of the musicians. Towards the end it reached a feverish pitch, with the tabla and dhol players in sheer bliss. The climax of a most blessed night was reaching its zenith. Men and women got up and began the Dance of Joy. Round and round they twirled, clapped, sang, and danced. Waves of vibrations flowed from this unrestrained outpouring of Joy.

Seeing all this abundant overflowing of happiness Shri Ganesha got up from the Divine Circle and walked towards the dancing Sahaja Yogis. Putting His best foot forward the Eternal Child joined the Dance of Joy. Round and round He danced His unique one-step-forward-two-steps-back style, a rhythm so filled with fluidity and grace that it is hard to imagine it being performed by a short Divine Being with stumpy legs and a huge belly.

All the Celestial Inhabitants sang and clapped to express the Joy that was in Heaven as it was on Earth. Shri Krishna clapped and sang. Shri Jesus clapped and sang. Prophet Muhammad clapped and sang. Shri Buddha sang and clapped. Guru Nanak sang and clapped. All the Heavenly Hosts clapped and sang in Praise of Shri Punya-sravana-kirtana Shri Nirmala Devi. The Sahaja Yogis clapped and sang in praise of the Great Holy Spirit. The Kingdom of God and of Earth were in unison. The Universal Sahasrara and the human Sahasrara were in unison. The Macrocosm and the Microcosm were in unison.

The dancing yogis joined hands and went round and round the altar of their Great Divine Mother. Shri Ganesha kept dancing in and out of this human train that was singing songs of Liberation, Freedom, Joy, Eternity and Spirit. None of them could see or feel Shri Ganesha’s invisible form that was going right through their bodies. The physical Sahaja Yogis were dancing right through the spiritual Shri Ganesha, and vice versa. The Evolved Beings and the evolving human beings sang, clapped and danced in unison. It was a scene of spiritual splendor, a Realm of Reality far beyond the grasp of mundane mullahs and blind brahmins.

Shri Mahadurga sat on the Golden Throne and witnessed the unrestrained outpouring of Joy and Bliss. The Infinite Light shone ever so brightly from behind the Everlasting Throne of the Great Divine Mother as She sat in Bliss and Joy.

It was truly a night to remember. So was the dawn.

The Morning Puja and the Rainbows

By early dawn most of the Sahaja Yogis were up and meditating. Some went to the lake to wash-up before breakfast. It was one of the most beautiful sight ever seen. Water-lilies in full bloom floated around as freshwater fish skimmed under the still clear waters and metallic-colored dragonflies flitted over the surface in the cool fresh air. The morning mist embracing the mountain had rolled down and spread over the lake, shrouding the entire area with an air of Shangri-La. The whole atmosphere was charged with stillness and peace, an unforgettable reminder that Nature was in the thoughtless state.

The morning Guru Puja was held in honor of the 10 Primordial Masters — Prophet Abraham, Moses, Zarathustra, Confucius, Lao-tse, Socrates, Muhammad, Raja Janaka, Guru Nanak, and Shri Sai Nath of Shirdi. According to the Great Holy Spirit “We only worship the Incarnations because they came as Incarnation. Ganesha came as Incarnation. The Goddess came as Incarnations. Rama, Shri Krishna, Gurus, Christ, Buddha, all of them came as Incarnations on this Earth and we worshipped the Incarnations who came on Earth, specially.”

The main altar was collectively decorated, dressed with lots of fresh flowers and offerings of dried fruits, nuts, cakes, cookies, and other assorted pastry. Clean, polished ceremonial utensils were placed before the photograph of the Great Universal Mother: oil lamp, conch, bell, a jug of water, and coconut. The Panchamrut of five elements constituting the Amrut were poured into small containers and kept together: honey, milk, sugar, yogurt and ghee. Kukkum was used to mark the coconut dedicated to Shri Ganesha with a swastika and the ‘three eyes’ of Shri Shiva marked the top.

Slowly the devotees began to gather around and, when all were ready, the Puja began with a collective bandhan and the Mighty Mantra of Shri Ganesha. Shri Siddha-Mata Shri Nirmala Devi’s Feet were washed by the children and then decorated with a swastika by women, as the Shri Ganesha Atharva Sheersha was read. Then the 108 names of Shri Adi Guru Dattatreya were read, followed by bhajans.

Throughout the entire ceremony Kash kept switching between the Guru Puja on Earth and that in his Sahasrara, as his father wanted to know exactly what Shri Mataji meant when She said that there are “things which happen into a Realm which is beyond thinking.” “It triggers you into another Realm. It is really miraculous.”

Kash did not disappoint him about the Spiritual Realm that the Great Primordial Goddess was talking about — It is beyond the grasp of the mundane human mind and to describe this Realm as miraculous is a gross understatement. Never did any Incarnation enlighten so deep about the boundless glory of God within all humans, reminding them at the same time that further enlightenment is beyond the capacity of the human race to absorb due to the limitations of their minds!

Stupendous is definitely an understatement to describe the faintest glimpse of His Glory. The Great HOLY SPIRIT Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi was just revealing the Kingdom of God that Lord Jesus, twenty centuries ago, claimed existed within humans. The Comforter was just fulfilling what the Universal Savior had promised to humankind when He walked on Earth.

As the devotees of the Great Supreme Spirit performed the sacred ceremonies the Heavenly Hosts in their Sahasraras watched in quiet dignity. They raised their Kundalinis simultaneously with the human brethren. They uttered the Sacred Mantras in unison with the True Believers (Al-Mu’minun) of the Resurrection. They sang in harmony with the seekers of the Ultimate Reality (Al-Haqqah). They meditated together with the new race of enlightened souls. This is the new Human Family destined to emancipate the human species out from the darkness of religious dungeons, and towards the Light.

To end the ceremony the Aarti of the Great Mahadevi was sung. The Guru Puja on Mother Earth was over.

Shri Bhagavati Shri Nirmala Devi and the Divine Deities got up and walked to the altar. They began to pick up and eat the offerings that lay before them. On Earth the Sahaja Yogis were filling bowls of offerings for the children of all races to distribute. The Heavenly Hosts ate at a very leisured pace, unlike humans. They were in no hurry at all, as is their innate nature. Handful by handful, bit by bit, and morsel by morsel, all the offerings of Shri Mataji’s devotees were consumed. In the end not a fig or date or nut was left behind; every single delicacy was taken. The Guru Puja in the Sahasrara was also over.

After the Puja was over lunch was served at the canteen nearby. After the Sahaja Yogis had gathered there it began to drizzle, and then rain fell. After a while the rains stopped and two beautiful rainbows appeared in the sky, right in front of the mountains and above the lake. The ends of the rainbows were visible, just about 200 yards away from the canteen. For many it was an unique experience of seeing the end of a rainbow; so close were they that one could almost touch it. Those with cameras quickly came down to snap this beautiful scene into memory.

However the Sahaja Yogis were unaware on what was going on the other side of the lake, as the trees and the main log cabin blocked their view. Kash and his brother Shahwinder were still boating in the middle of the lake, though the rest had sought shelter at the shore when the drizzle began. From their vantage point in the middle of the lake four rainbows were visible; two on either side of the lake. Humankind, Nature, and the Divine were in perfect harmony.

Note: The organizers received a call informing that according to Shri Mataji the full moon was the most perfect since 15,000 years ago. A few days later Kash was told to inquire from the Great Adi Shakti the reason for the moon being in such a pure state after so many millenniums. She replied that God and His Divine Messengers were so happy and pleased to see so many people of different races and religious background mingling and meditating together in peace and harmony that they decided to mark the occasion with this very special full moon. Humans, Nature, and the Divine were in perfect harmony.

1. One Promise, One Evidentiary Sequence

The complex testimony becomes clear when read in the order preserved by Shri Adi Shakti: The Kingdom of God. Its controlling statement occurs before the family leaves home.

This contains the whole case in embryo: She would come; Her Deities would accompany Her; and they would witness the Guru Puja.

2. The Antecedent Promise

The chronology is explicit: invitation → revelation → father informed → departure. This is the documentary anchor of the case. The prediction is antecedent within the source itself.

3. She Came with Her Deities

The correspondence is immediate: She said She would come with Her Deities; Kash reports the MahaDevi together with Shri Shiva. The source itself then declares:

4. Three Witnesses, One Invisible Shri Shiva

This is among the strongest evidence in the narrative. The Yogini does not merely mention vibrations: she names Shri Shiva. Sanjeev [Paul] is separately remembered as saying that he felt Shri Shiva's presence. The supplied narrative does not state that either knew of the family's private invitation or that Kash had first told them his identification.

5. How They Knew: Vibratory Awareness

The book is precise: Shri Shiva was not physically visible. Kash says vibratory awareness identified the invisible presence. It further records that he was “very sure” because he had used vibrations before to identify Spirit Beings and believed they were “telling him the Truth.”

This makes the Yogini's and Sanjeev's statements particularly striking within Sahaja Yoga's own epistemology. With no visible Shri Shiva to point toward, they nevertheless identify Shri Shiva.

6. The Divine Witnesses Begin Watching

The promise also said the Divine company would witness. During the film, Kash reportedly entered Sahaj Samadhi:

He then reportedly came out of meditation and informed his father immediately.

7. The Havan: Kash Witnesses the Witnesses—and Himself

8. From Witnessing to Participation

“Exactly at this point” changes the claim from resemblance to synchronization. The Divine witnesses are now reported as participants responding at the same ritual moment.

9. Shri Ganesha and the Dance of Joy

The promised Divine company is now represented as continuously present and actively sharing the congregation's celebration.

10. The Actual Guru Puja: Two Pujas, One Ceremony

This describes repeated alternation throughout the ceremony, not one isolated vision. The source then gives four striking correspondences:

11. The Offerings and Completion

The physical offerings remained on Earth for distribution; the source describes a spiritual counterpart. Narratively, however, the significance is unmistakable: the Divine company remains through the ceremony until its completion.

12. The Cumulative Evidentiary Case

The force of the case is structural: antecedence, specificity, convergent perception, spatial detail, repeated correspondence, temporal synchronization, differentiated modes of perception, self-witnessing and completion.

13. Evidentiary Limits

A strong documentary conclusion need not confuse categories. Historical inquiry cannot experimentally prove the transcendent ontology of the MahaDevi, Shri Shiva or the Sahasrara. It can, however, assess whether the surviving testimony is antecedent, specific, coherent, convergent and internally continuous.

Alternative explanations—expectation, memory, religious conditioning or visionary psychology—must address the whole recorded pattern, not merely one spectacular episode.

14. Resounding Conclusion: The Authenticity of the Case of Double Witnesses

Once integrated, the testimony is much easier to comprehend. The Shri Shiva convergence supplies unusually strong corroborative weight within the narrative; the havan supplies the defining Double-Witness structure; and the Sunday Guru Puja supplies sustained synchronization and fulfilment.
