Subject: The core teachings of Jesus' Kingdom within
have been lost to the modern Christian.
"Tolstoy argues, very persuasively, that the core teachings of
Jesus have been lost to the modern Christian. Man is too
comfortable with the way things are to really adopt Jesus
approach to life.
Most of what passes for Christianity today is nothing of
the sort. A great deal of it is self-serving. Jesus said
salvation is personal—you don't need a "church" to be
saved. As Tolstoy explains, church's are largely the invention
of men, who crave a hierarchy and order.
This book is a revelation, and can make Christians feel
rebuked by Tolstoy's words."

TIME magazine published in its
first issue of the new Millennium the fact that on May 5th,
2000 the planets Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn
will be perfectly aligned with the Sun, Moon and Earth. The
last time this happened was 6,000 years ago.
Interestingly enough, this
signifies no less than a cosmic string of all the seven
chakras aligned with Earth: it is known that Mars symbolizes
the Mooladhara (1st chakra), Mercury is the Swadisthan (2nd
chakra), Jupiter is the Nabhi (3rd chakra), Venus is the
heart (4th chakra), Saturn is the Vishuddhi (5th chakra),
the Sun is the Agya (6th chakra) and the Moon corresponds to
the Sahasrara (the last and 7th chakra).
Another remarkable fact is
that the day of May 5th, 1970, which is precisely 30 years
ago from the above mentioned date, marks a memorable event
in the history of human spirituality: it is the day when the
Sahasrara chakra was opened on the universal level, clearing
the path for the divine motherly energy within us
(Kundalini) to rise and give us our second birth (Self
Realization, moksha, satori, enlightenment). That was the
moment that marked the birth of Sahaja Yoga as we know it
today - spontaneous, effortless Self Realization that can be
achieved by all human beings, on a mass level.
The 6,000 year period since
the last alignment of the seven planets is also interesting.
The old traditions of India divide history in four Yugas, or
eras, which keep repeating as a cycle. The first one is
Satya Yuga, the golden age of Truth when righteousness and
the joy of the Spirit prevail. It is the longest Yuga,
followed by Dwapara Yuga which is a bit shorter, and when
Dharma (righteousness) starts to decline. The decline
continues in the third, even shorter, Treta Yuga, and
reaches a climax in the troubled times of Kali Yuga, the
dark ages, which are marked by confusion and all the signs
of crisis of our modern times. But Kali Yuga contains also
the seed of redemption - the ardent thirst of human beings
for Truth, which manifests towards the end of this shortest
and most tumultuous era, leading again into the golden age
of Satya Yuga. Kali Yuga is supposed to last around 6,000
years. Does this unique alignment of planets mark the
beginning and ending of Kali Yuga, and if we are indeed on
the way to Satya Yuga, what are the signs?
Several ancient texts and
prophecies point to the Golden Age being attained not
through social or economical reforms, but rather through a
transformation in human awareness which would soar to a
Divine realm, the Kingdom of Heavens. Also, what is
intriguing is the faint echo from the past which informs us
of a hitherto unsuspected phenomenon, namely the coming of a
feminine spiritual personality, a Mother, who will
facilitate a collective rebirth. Here are some selected
references which allude to this happening:
-
In a book published in
1887 titled The Mystery of the Ages by Marie, Countess of
Caithness (Page 316-317) the following prediction appears:
"It was generally considered, at the turn of the next
century, that the next Divine incarnation was about to
come to earth and would be female, the advent of Divine
Wisdom, or Theo-Sophia, and that the present age would be
the age of making known all that which has been kept
secret from the beginning."
-
Knight John of Jerusalem
(11th century) describes in his Book of Prophecies the
Mother and the coming millennium: "She will be a great
Master of the future times..... She will be The Mother of
the Millennium that comes after the Millennium.... After
the days of the devil She will make the softness of a
Mother flow." "The millennium that comes after this
millennium will change into a light time. People will love
and share and dream, and dreams will come true. [...]
People will be one big body of which every person is a
tiny part. Together they'll be te heart and they'll speak
one language. [...] Men will have reached heaven... Men
will know the Spirit of all things... People will receive
a second birth and the Spirit will come into them."

One of the oldest books in
Indian astrology, Nadigrantha, compiled and translated by
Shantaram Athvale, includes an interesting description of
the times around the year 2000 in its chapter Kak Nadi
written by Kakayyar Bhujander who was a great astrologer
and seeker who lived nearly 2000 years ago. An interesting
reference is also made to the year 1970, which is the year
Sahaja Yoga was born. Note: by Kruta Yuga the author
refers to the short transition period between Kali Yuga
and Satya Yuga.
"While Jupiter is in Pisces
a great Yogi will incarnate on the Earth. By 1970 it will
have become quite evident to many people that a new era
will have started. Kali Yuga will end and Kruta Yuga will
start. The axis of the Earth will depress and the Earth's
orbit will come closer and closer to the Sun. Human life
will undergo a complete revolution. A great Yogi will
incarnate at this time. This Yogi will be the incarnation
of Parabrahma and will have all the divine powers.
Until this time a yogi or
devotee could achieve the bliss of Moksha and find the
ultimate meaning of his live only by following the path of
devotion, knowledge and Pantanjali Yoga. But he would have
to go through severe penance in order to awaken the
sleeping powers of various chakras of his body and finally
enlighten the Kundalini Power.
By the new method of yoga
devised by the great Yogi, human beings will be able to
attain the joy of Moksha (Self Realization) within one
lifetime. It would no longer be necessary to sacrifice
one's body or to die in order to achieve Moksha. The
Brahmananda which so far only great saints had been able
to experience and then only by entering into the Samadhi
state at the point of death, due to his new type of yoga
could be achieved by ordinary human beings without
entering Samadhi state while dying.
In the beginning it would
be possible for one person in crores to attain this Yoga
and Moksha. However, after some time the whole human race
with the help of this Yoga will be able to defeat itself.
People won't have to worry about food, shelter or
clothing. While living ordinary lives people will achieve
Yoga - Union with God. There will be no necessity for
hospitals as there will be no diseases.
In the beginning the great
Yogi will be able to heal diseases with a mere touch. Old
age with its destruction of the body will not exist and
people will possess heavenly bodies. The whole of humanity
will understand the importace of prayer and all the
nations will unite together.
Due to new scientific
discoveries science and religions would become one. With
the help of the science the existence of God and the Soul
could be proved. The veil of ignorance and Maya would be
drawn aside and Brahmananda, Moksha which could previously
only be attained by yogis as a result of very hard work
and severe penance would become easily available to many
human beings."

C.S Lewis (1898-1963)
describes the sublime times when humanity will reach an
enlightened state of awareness in his book "The Great
Divorce": "If I could remember their singing and write
down the notes, no man who read that score would ever grow
sick or old. Between them went musicians: and after this a
lady in whose honour this was being done. [...] Every
young man or boy that met her became her son... Every girl
that met her became her daughter. [...] There are those
that steal other peoples children. But her motherhood was
of a different kind. Those on whom it fell went back to
their natural parents loving them more. In her they became
themselves. And now the abundance of life she has in
Christ from the Father flows over into them." He goes on
to say "Redeemed humanity is still young, it has hardly
come to its full strength. But already there is joy enough
in the little finger of a great saint such as yonder lady
to waken all the dead things in the universe to life."
And what is the feminine
principle, the Greek Sophia, the Jewish Shekina, the Chinese
Tao, the Christian Holy Ghost, and the Muslim Ruah? It is
The Motherly power which exists at the universal level,
which we can call as Mother Nature, which makes all living
beings grow and does all living work, and which is also
reflected with us human beings as the Kundalini energy at
the base of the spine. Today, through the advent of Sahaja
Yoga, this energy can be felt on our central nervous system,
through an ancient secret phenomenon which is now possible
effortlessly and en-masse: Self Realization. After this
happening, which is the awakening of the Kundalini along the
central channel, emerging at the top of the head, one can
feel the cool breeze of this All-Pervading Power of Divine
Love in the palms and above the head. This is only the
beginning, a new dimension that opens to our awareness. It
is not a relative dimension, conditioned by the mind, but an
absolute one, that allows us to perceive the subtle reality
on our palms and fingertips.
Once this initial experience
of Self Realization takes place, it can be strengthened by
regular Sahaja Yoga meditation, through which our spiritual
growth takes place."

"You
have to take a stand in your family, in your surroundings,
with your friends, and you have to tell them, "You better all
get realized." The reason for that is that the Christ who
crucified Himself is going to come back with his Eleven Forces
of Destruction. And when He starts He is not going to ask you
to take any Realization. No one is going to be bothered
whether you are going to hell. He will just sort out. But
those who have got Realization will enter into the Kingdom of
God. You have to enter into the Kingdom of God here, as I say,
in the Seventh Chakra.“

"This Kundalini is the one which is
called as the Kumbha — in Sanskrit language means the
Aquarius.
We call it as Aquarius,
as one of the Signs, and is the same as Khumba in Sanskrit language. So it
is the Age of Aquarius, is the Age of the Kundalini... which will
nourish, which is The Mother within you, which will rise, will give you
the completeness of it. And which will connect you with your Spirit which
ultimately gives you the enlightenment by which you become Collectively
Conscious."
