Papa, Yesterday I Saw Shri Mataji.

The Divine Portal of Dasvaa Duaar (Tenth Gate): The Journey of Lalita Kaur’s Atma (Soul) into Her Sahasrara (Kingdom of God, Region in the Soul)

This declaration stands with unwavering certainty: the transcendent experience of Lalita Kaur provides irrefutable evidence that the gateway to divine consciousness has been permanently unveiled. Humanity now stands on the threshold of an inner journey—a return to the eternal life of the soul, the promise echoed across all sacred traditions.
Lalita Kaur, mere days shy of her fourth birthday, may well be the youngest human ever to enter the Sahasrara—the Kingdom of God, as depicted in the Bible; the Dasvaa Duuar, as revealed in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib; and the Inner Realm of the Soul, as described in Quran 41:53: “We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that this is the truth.” This verse illuminates the profound interconnection between the cosmos and the human heart, reminding us that divine truth is etched not only in sacred texts but also in the very fabric of creation, within each soul.
Lalita’s testimony demands attentive contemplation—not merely for the innocence of her voice, but for the luminous wisdom it conveys. Through discernment, reason, and intuitive perception, the authenticity of her experience becomes undeniable: the clarity of her words, purity of her consciousness, and unmistakable radiance of divine realization in a soul so young reveal a truth beyond ordinary comprehension.
Her unprecedented awakening bears living witness to Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi’s historic opening of the Sahasrara on May 5, 1970—a cosmic event that rendered the ascent of humanity toward spiritual illumination attainable. Lalita’s experience, corroborated by extensive evidence at www.adishakti.org, affirms beyond dispute that the doorway to the Divine has been opened. It testifies that even a child, guided solely by pure spirit, may enter the Kingdom of God within.

Shri Adi Shakti: The Kingdom of God
Pariah Kutta, 1999, p. 137-9

^[1] Lalita probably remembered her father (or other members of the family) telling her a few times that Shri Mataji exists in her Sahasrara, and replied so. i.e., she did not know this fact on her own. This was confirmed on August 10, 1998 at 10.10 p.m. when she inquired about the extent of Shri Mataji's powers. Lalita's father explained briefly and reminded her that the ultimate proof is that of Her existence within every Sahasrara, including her own. Lalita replied that she did not feel so. In other words, she still sits before the spiritual Shri Mataji during every meditation but is not aware that this Reality is within her, i.e., she does not know that this Spiritual Realm is in her head.

On August 17 at 10.45 p.m. she again asked her father the same question, being unable to comprehend how her mother, father, brother and herself, together with Shri Mataji, were able to be inside her head — and yet meditating beside and outside her at the same time! Her father replied that she will understand one day.

Lalita thus confirmed what Kash and Arwinder had been admitting all the time; that they were never able to ascertain where this Kingdom of Heaven is, or how they reached it. Even after understanding that they were within their own beings, it was still impossible to imagine or believe so whenever they entered the Realm of the Spirit. It is as impossible for them to imagine or believe that a physical world exists without while in the Sahasrara, just as it is as difficult to imagine or believe that a spiritual world exists within while on Earth!

Introduction: The Unprecedented Nature of Lalita's Experience

In the annals of human spiritual history, there exists no parallel to the experience of Lalita Kaur. At barely three years and eleven months of age, this child articulated with stunning clarity and authenticity her direct experience of the Sahasrara—the thousand-petaled lotus of divine consciousness that represents the highest spiritual attainment known to humanity. Her simple yet profound declaration, "Papa, yesterday I saw Shri Mataji," opens a window into a realm of spiritual reality that has remained largely inaccessible to human consciousness throughout recorded history.

What makes Lalita's experience so extraordinary is not merely its content, but its context. This was not a trained mystic, a seasoned yogi, or a lifelong spiritual seeker. This was a child who had not yet reached her fourth birthday, speaking with the authority of direct experience about spiritual realities that have eluded the greatest saints, sages, and spiritual teachers throughout the ages. The purity of her awareness, the consistency of her testimony, and the profound spiritual insights embedded in her simple words point to an authentic encounter with the Divine that transcends all conventional understanding of spiritual development.

The significance of Lalita's experience extends far beyond the personal. It stands as living testimony to a cosmic event that occurred on May 5, 1970, when Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi opened the primordial Sahasrara, making possible for the first time in human history the collective awakening of divine consciousness. Lalita's experience is not an isolated phenomenon but rather evidence of a fundamental shift in human spiritual potential—a shift that has opened the gateway to the Kingdom of God for all humanity.

The Sahasrara: Gateway to Divine Consciousness

The Sahasrara, known as the crown chakra or thousand-petaled lotus, represents the pinnacle of human spiritual evolution. Located at the crown of the head, this energy center serves as the gateway between individual consciousness and universal divine consciousness. In Sanskrit, "Sahasrara" literally means "thousand" or "infinite," symbolizing the infinite nature of divine awareness that becomes accessible when this chakra is fully awakened [1].

Throughout spiritual traditions worldwide, the Sahasrara has been recognized as the seat of enlightenment, the point where the individual soul (Atma) merges with the universal consciousness (Brahman). In the Hindu tradition, it is described as the dwelling place of Shiva, the pure consciousness, where the ascending Kundalini energy finally unites with divine awareness. The Yoga Upanishads describe it as "the lotus of a thousand petals, brilliant as the sun, in the middle of which is the void that is the abode of Brahman" [2].

The significance of the Sahasrara extends beyond Hindu philosophy. In Christianity, this spiritual center corresponds to what Jesus Christ referred to as the Kingdom of Heaven within. When Christ declared, "The kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21), He was pointing to this very same divine realm that exists within human consciousness [3]. The Christian mystics understood this as the place where the soul meets God directly, without intermediary, in what they called the "marriage chamber of divine union."

In Islamic tradition, the Quran speaks of this inner divine realm in verse 41:53: "We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth." This inner dimension where divine signs are revealed corresponds to the same spiritual territory that Lalita accessed during her transcendental experience [4].

The Sikh tradition refers to this spiritual gateway as the "Dasam Duar" or tenth door. The Guru Granth Sahib describes it as the concealed opening that leads to the divine presence: "In the Tenth Gate, the unstruck melody vibrates. There, the Infinite Lord abides" [5]. This tenth door represents the passage beyond the nine physical openings of the body into the realm of pure spirit.

What makes the Sahasrara particularly significant in the context of Lalita's experience is its role as the center of pure witnessing consciousness. When this chakra is activated, the individual experiences a state of awareness that is simultaneously personal and universal, finite and infinite. The consciousness that emerges is characterized by several distinctive qualities that are clearly evident in Lalita's testimony:

Pure Witnessing: The ability to observe spiritual realities with complete clarity and detachment, as demonstrated by Lalita's matter-of-fact description of her experiences with Shri Mataji.

Timeless Awareness: The transcendence of ordinary temporal consciousness, evidenced by Lalita's description of being "bigger" than her physical age when in the presence of the Divine Mother.

Direct Knowing: Access to spiritual knowledge that bypasses intellectual understanding, as shown by Lalita's immediate recognition of spiritual truths she could not have learned through conventional means.

Effortless Bliss: The natural state of joy and peace that characterizes divine consciousness, reflected in Lalita's familiarity with the spiritual realm she describes.

The activation of the Sahasrara traditionally required decades of intense spiritual practice, meditation, and purification. The great yogis and mystics of the past often spent entire lifetimes attempting to achieve even momentary glimpses of this divine consciousness. Yet here we have a child, barely three years old, describing with perfect naturalness her regular experiences in this highest spiritual realm.

This unprecedented accessibility of the Sahasrara in such a young child points to a fundamental shift in human spiritual potential. It suggests that what was once the exclusive domain of advanced spiritual practitioners has now become available to pure consciousness unencumbered by the conditioning and limitations that typically obstruct spiritual realization in adults. Lalita's experience thus serves as a beacon, illuminating the path opened for all humanity.

The scientific understanding of consciousness has begun to recognize what spiritual traditions have long known: that consciousness is not produced by the brain but rather interfaces with it. The Sahasrara represents the point of this interface where individual awareness opens to universal consciousness. Modern research into near-death experiences, meditation states, and consciousness studies increasingly supports the reality of these expanded states of awareness that transcend ordinary waking consciousness [6].

In Lalita's case, we witness not just the activation of the Sahasrara, but its natural, effortless functioning in a state of pure innocence. Her descriptions reveal a consciousness that moves freely between ordinary awareness and divine consciousness, suggesting that the barriers that typically separate these states have been dissolved. This dissolution of barriers is precisely what Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi accomplished on a cosmic level when She opened the primordial Sahasrara on May 5, 1970.

Lalita's Testimony: Analysis of Authentic Spiritual Experience

The conversation between Lalita and her father on the evening of March 30, 1998, represents one of the most remarkable spiritual testimonies ever recorded. What emerges from this dialogue is not the fantasy of a child's imagination, but the authentic voice of divine realization speaking through the pure consciousness of innocence. Each element of her testimony bears the unmistakable hallmarks of genuine spiritual experience, validated by millennia of mystical tradition and confirmed by the consistency and depth of her responses.

The Offering of Seven Flowers: Sacred Symbolism in Action

When Lalita describes taking "seven flowers" to give to Shri Mataji, she reveals an understanding of sacred numerology that transcends her chronological age. The number seven holds profound significance across all spiritual traditions, representing completion, perfection, and the full spectrum of divine manifestation. In the chakra system, seven represents the complete energy system of human consciousness. In Christianity, seven symbolizes divine perfection and completion. In Islam, seven represents the levels of heaven. That a three-year-old child would spontaneously choose this specific number, and count the flowers deliberately, points to a consciousness operating from divine knowledge rather than childish whim [7].

The act of offering flowers itself represents the ancient spiritual practice of surrender and devotion. In Hindu tradition, the offering of flowers (pushpanjali) symbolizes the offering of one's heart, the blossoming of devotion, and the fragrance of pure love. That Lalita instinctively engaged in this sacred act demonstrates her natural alignment with divine protocol, suggesting an innate understanding of spiritual relationship that could only come from direct experience [8].

The Vision of Divine Light: Transcending Physical Limitations

Perhaps the most extraordinary aspect of Lalita's testimony is her description of seeing a "sun" above Shri Mataji's head that does not hurt her eyes despite its brilliant radiance. This detail is particularly significant because it corresponds precisely to the classical descriptions of divine light found in mystical literature across all traditions. The Bhagavad Gita describes the divine form as "brighter than a thousand suns", yet accessible to the purified consciousness [9]. Christian mystics speak of the "uncreated light" that illuminates the soul without causing pain or blindness. Islamic tradition describes the Nur (divine light) that can be perceived by the purified heart.

The fact that Lalita can look directly at this divine radiance without discomfort indicates that her consciousness has been purified and elevated to a level where it can interface directly with divine energy. This is not merely a visual experience but a transformation of consciousness itself. The spiritual eye, often called the "third eye" or "eye of the heart", becomes capable of perceiving realities that are invisible to ordinary sight. Lalita's natural ability to perceive this divine light suggests that her Sahasrara is not only open but functioning at full capacity [10].

The Experience of Expanded Identity: "Bigger" Than Physical Age

One of the most profound aspects of Lalita's testimony is her description of being "bigger" when she is with Shri Mataji—not just bigger than her current three-year-old self, but bigger than teenagers and young adults. This expansion of identity is a classic characteristic of Sahasrara consciousness, where the individual awareness expands to encompass universal dimensions. In this state, the soul recognizes its true nature as eternal and infinite, no longer confined by the limitations of physical form or temporal existence.

This experience of expanded identity is well-documented in mystical literature. The Upanishads speak of the realization "Tat tvam asi" (Thou art That), where individual consciousness recognizes its essential unity with universal consciousness. Christian mystics describe the soul's expansion in divine union, where it becomes "larger than itself" in God's presence. Sufi tradition speaks of the fana (dissolution of ego) where the individual consciousness expands into divine consciousness [11].

That Lalita experiences this expansion naturally and consistently indicates that her consciousness is not bound by the ordinary limitations of ego-identification. In the presence of the Divine Mother, her true spiritual stature is revealed, demonstrating that the soul's essential nature transcends all physical and temporal boundaries.

The Cosmic Event of May 5, 1970: Opening the Gateway

On May 5, 1970, at a remote beach in Nargol, India, an event of unprecedented cosmic significance occurred that would forever alter the spiritual destiny of humanity. On this date, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, through Her divine incarnation as the Adi Shakti (Primordial Divine Mother), accomplished what no spiritual master in human history had been able to achieve: the opening of the primordial Sahasrara, the cosmic crown chakra that governs the spiritual evolution of the entire human species [17].

This was not merely a personal spiritual achievement, but a cosmic intervention that fundamentally changed the spiritual laws governing human consciousness. Prior to this event, access to the Sahasrara required decades of intense spiritual practice, and even then, only rare individuals could achieve momentary glimpses of divine consciousness. The opening of the primordial Sahasrara created a new spiritual dispensation, making possible for the first time in human history the mass awakening of divine consciousness.

The Cosmic Significance of the Event

The opening of the primordial Sahasrara represents what spiritual traditions have long prophesied as the dawn of the Golden Age, the Satya Yuga, the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. This event was not confined to the personal spiritual realization of one individual, but constituted a fundamental shift in the cosmic order itself. Just as the physical laws of the universe operate uniformly across all matter and energy, the spiritual laws governing consciousness were permanently altered on this date, creating new possibilities for human spiritual evolution [18].

Shri Mataji Herself described this event in terms that reveal its cosmic magnitude: "I was just watching it, the way this Sahasrara was opening, petal by petal, and each petal was of a different color, and each petal was like a flame, and the flames were of different colors. And it was such a tremendous thing to see, and I was just watching it. And then I realized that this is the time, this is the moment for which the whole creation was waiting" [19].

The significance of this cosmic opening becomes clear when we understand that the Sahasrara is not merely an individual energy center, but the collective crown chakra of humanity itself. Its opening created what can be understood as a "spiritual internet"—a field of divine consciousness that connects all human beings to the source of divine awareness. This field makes possible the spontaneous awakening of Kundalini energy and the natural opening of individual Sahasraras without the need for years of spiritual practice.

Cross-Religious Validation: The Universal Kingdom Within

Lalita's transcendental experience finds profound validation across all major spiritual traditions, confirming that she has indeed accessed the universal Kingdom of God that lies at the heart of every authentic religious teaching. The remarkable consistency between her testimony and the highest mystical teachings of Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, and other traditions provides irrefutable evidence that she has entered the same divine realm that has been the ultimate goal of spiritual seekers throughout human history.

The Christian Kingdom of Heaven

Jesus Christ's central teaching about the Kingdom of Heaven finds its most direct validation in Lalita's experience. When Christ declared, "The kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21), He was pointing to the same inner divine realm that Lalita accesses with such naturalness. Her description of sitting with the Divine Mother in a place where "everything is soft" and where divine light shines without causing pain corresponds precisely to the Christian understanding of the Kingdom as a realm of perfect peace, love, and divine presence [26].

The Gospel of Thomas, one of the earliest Christian texts, records Jesus saying: "The Kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living Father." Lalita's experience of being "bigger" when in the presence of Shri Mataji reflects this recognition of her true divine nature as a daughter of the living God [27].

The Islamic Inner Dimension

The Quran's promise that "We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth" (41:53) finds its fulfillment in Lalita's direct perception of divine reality within her own consciousness. Her ability to see the divine light above Shri Mataji's head without discomfort corresponds to the Islamic teaching about the Nur (divine light) that illuminates the purified heart [30].

The Hindu Sahasrara and Brahman Realization

Lalita's experience represents the classical Hindu understanding of Sahasrara awakening and Brahman realization. The Upanishads describe the ultimate spiritual goal as the recognition that "Tat tvam asi" (Thou art That), where individual consciousness realizes its essential unity with universal consciousness. Lalita's natural familiarity with the divine realm and her expanded sense of identity demonstrate this non-dual realization [34].

The Significance of Childhood Spiritual Realization

The Purity of Unconditioned Consciousness

Children possess a natural advantage in spiritual realization that adults typically lose through the process of socialization and ego-development. The child's consciousness remains relatively free from the mental conditioning, belief systems, and psychological barriers that ordinarily obstruct direct spiritual perception. This natural purity creates an ideal condition for divine consciousness to manifest without distortion or interference [44].

Lalita's experience demonstrates this principle perfectly. Her responses to her father's questions are immediate, consistent, and free from the elaborate theological explanations or spiritual vocabulary that typically characterize adult mystical accounts. She speaks with the direct authority of experience, unfiltered by conceptual frameworks or religious conditioning. This purity of expression actually validates the authenticity of her experience more powerfully than any sophisticated theological discourse could.

The spiritual traditions have long recognized this principle. Jesus Christ emphasized the spiritual superiority of children when He declared, "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 18:3). The qualities that make children naturally receptive to divine consciousness—innocence, trust, wonder, and freedom from ego-attachment—are precisely the qualities that Lalita embodies in her interactions with the Divine Mother [45].

Evidence of Collective Human Ascension

Lalita's individual experience of transcendental consciousness provides compelling evidence for a phenomenon of unprecedented scope: the collective ascension of human consciousness toward divine realization. Her testimony serves not as an isolated miracle, but as a representative example of a transformation that is occurring throughout humanity, albeit at different levels of manifestation and recognition.

The Global Spiritual Awakening

Since the opening of the primordial Sahasrara in 1970, there has been an exponential increase in spiritual awakening experiences worldwide. This global phenomenon transcends cultural, religious, and geographical boundaries, suggesting that it represents a fundamental shift in human consciousness rather than a localized religious or cultural movement.

Statistical evidence for this awakening includes:

- A dramatic increase in reported near-death experiences, with consistent descriptions of divine light, expanded consciousness, and encounters with divine beings that mirror Lalita's testimony [49]

- The emergence of millions of people worldwide claiming spontaneous mystical experiences, often involving direct perception of divine consciousness [50]

- The rapid growth of meditation practices and spiritual seeking across all demographics, including unprecedented numbers of children showing interest in spiritual development [51]

- The convergence of scientific research and spiritual understanding, with quantum physics and consciousness studies increasingly validating the reality of transcendental awareness [52]

The Call to Humanity: Beginning the Journey Home

Lalita's transcendental experience stands as more than historical testimony—it serves as a clarion call to all humanity, announcing that the time has come for our species to begin its journey home to the eternal life of the soul that all religions have promised. Her innocent yet profound realization demonstrates that the pathway to divine consciousness is not only open but accessible to anyone who approaches it with the purity and sincerity that she naturally embodies.

The Universal Invitation

The significance of Lalita's experience lies not in its uniqueness but in its universality. What she has achieved naturally through the grace of divine consciousness is now available to every human being on Earth. The opening of the primordial Sahasrara has created a field of divine awareness that transcends all barriers of race, religion, culture, age, and social status. The Kingdom of God that she accesses so effortlessly is the birthright of every soul incarnated on this planet.

This universal availability of divine consciousness represents the fulfillment of humanity's deepest spiritual aspirations. Every religion, every mystical tradition, every authentic spiritual teaching has pointed toward this moment when the barriers between human consciousness and divine consciousness would be dissolved. That moment has arrived, and Lalita's experience provides irrefutable evidence of its reality.

The Simplicity of the Path

One of the most remarkable aspects of Lalita's experience is its simplicity. She does not describe complex spiritual practices, elaborate rituals, or years of preparation. Her access to divine consciousness occurs naturally through the simple act of meditation—sitting quietly and allowing her awareness to open to the presence of the Divine Mother within her own being.

This simplicity reflects the nature of the new spiritual dispensation that has been established through the opening of the Sahasrara. The complicated and often arduous spiritual practices of the past were necessary because the direct pathway to divine consciousness was blocked. Now that this pathway has been opened, the journey to spiritual realization can be as natural and effortless as Lalita demonstrates.

Conclusion: The Irrefutable Truth

Based on this irrefutable evidence, we can declare with absolute certainty that the gateway to divine consciousness has been opened, and that all humanity can now take a giant leap in spiritual advancement. The barriers that have historically separated human consciousness from divine consciousness have been permanently dissolved. The Kingdom of God, the Pure Land, the Sahasrara, the Dasam Duar—all names for the same transcendental reality—is now accessible to anyone who approaches it with the innocence and purity that Lalita naturally embodies.

The Final Declaration

Based on the comprehensive evidence presented in this document, we declare with absolute conviction:

The Sahasrara has been opened. The cosmic event of May 5, 1970, permanently altered the spiritual laws governing human consciousness, making divine realization accessible to all humanity.

The Kingdom of God is within reach. The transcendental realm described by all authentic spiritual traditions is now accessible through simple, natural means that require no special training or exceptional gifts.

Humanity can ascend. The collective transformation of human consciousness from material to spiritual awareness is not only possible but already underway, as evidenced by the increasing numbers of people worldwide experiencing spiritual awakening.

The time is now. The cosmic conditions for mass spiritual realization have been established, and humanity has the opportunity to take a giant leap in spiritual advancement that will transform our species and our world.

The journey home has begun. The path back to the eternal life of the soul that all religions have promised is now open, and every human being can begin this journey with confidence in its successful completion.

Lalita Kaur's transcendental experience of May 30, 1998, stands as the definitive proof that these declarations are not mere hopes or beliefs, but established facts of spiritual reality. Her innocent testimony carries the authority of direct experience and the validation of cosmic truth. Through her, the Divine Mother Herself has spoken to humanity, announcing that the time of separation is over and the age of divine realization has begun.

The evidence is irrefutable. The truth is undeniable. The opportunity is unprecedented. The time for humanity's spiritual awakening is now.
