"And that the whole story of Last Judgment ... has been made very beautiful"- The Paraclete
"The Universal Conflagration In the Apostolic writings we are told that the end of the world will be brought about through a general conflagration, which, however, will not annihilate the present creation, but will change its form and appearance (2 Peter 3:10-13; cf. 1 Thessalonians 5:2; Apocalypse 3:3, and 16:15). Natural science shows the possibility of such a catastrophe being produced in the ordinary course of events, but theologians generally tend to believe that its origin will be entirely miraculous.”
Last Judgment, Day of the Lord, General Judgment
General Information
The concept of a final judgment on humankind at the end of history is
found in Judaism and Christianity, Islam, and Zoroastrianism. It
holds an important place in Judaic tradition, in which God's judgment
is regarded as operative both within history and at its end. The
consummation of history is called the Day of the Lord, which is a day
of judgment upon all who are unfaithful to God.
Christian Eschatology owes much to this Hebrew tradition. The New
Testament freely employs the language and imagery of Jewish
Apocalyptic Literature. It affirms the expectation that (in the
language of the historic creeds) Christ"Will come again with glory
to judge both the quick and the dead.”Many different interpretations
of the meaning of this affirmation have been offered and, in
particular, of the symbolic language employed in the New Testament to
describe the indescribable. But there is little doubt that the
apostolic writers believed in the Second Coming of Christ and the
Great Judgment Day as a manifestation of Christ's eternal victory.
Final Judgment
Advanced Information
Final Judgment is the sentence that will be passed on our actions at
the last day (Matt. 25; Rom. 14:10, 11; 2 Cor. 5: 10; 2 Thess. 1:7-
10). The judge is Jesus Christ, as mediator. All judgment is
committed to him (Acts 17:31; John 5:22, 27; Rev. 1:7).”It pertains
to him as mediator to complete and publicly manifest the salvation of
his people and the overthrow of his enemies, together with the
glorious righteousness of his work in both respects.”The persons to
be judged are, (1) the whole race of Adam without a single exception
(Matt. 25:31-46; 1 Cor. 15:51, 52; Rev. 20:11-15); and (2) the fallen
angels (2 Pet. 2:4; Jude 6).
The rule of judgment is the standard of God's law as revealed to men,
the heathen by the law as written on their hearts (Luke 12:47, 48;
Rom. 2:12-16); the Jew who"sinned in the law shall be judged by the
law" (Rom. 2:12); the Christian enjoying the light of revelation, by
the will of God as made known to him (Matt. 11:20-24; John 3:19).
Then the secrets of all hearts will be brought to light (1 Cor. 4:5;
Luke 8:17; 12:2, 3) to vindicate the justice of the sentence
pronounced. The time of the judgment will be after the resurrection
(Heb. 9:27; Acts 17: 31). As the Scriptures represent the final
judgment"As certain [Eccl. 11:9], universal [2 Cor. 5:10], righteous
[Rom. 2:5], decisive [1 Cor. 15:52], and eternal as to its
consequences [Heb. 6:2], let us be concerned for the welfare of our
immortal interests, flee to the refuge set before us, improve our
precious time, depend on the merits of the Redeemer, and adhere to
the dictates of the divine word, that we may be found of him in
peace.”
(Easton Illustrated Dictionary)
Last Judgment
Advanced Information
Judgment at history's end is the climax of a process by which God
holds nations and persons accountable to him as Creator and Lord.
The OT centers ultimate judgment in the day of Yahweh (or the day),
when the Lord rids his world of every evil: haughtiness (Isa. 2:12-
17), idolatry (Isa. 2:18-20), compromise with paganism (Zeph. 1:8),
violence, fraud (Zeph. 1:9), complacency (Zeph. 1:12), and all that
brands people as sinners (Isa. 13:9). Both the nations (Amos 1:2;
Joel 3:2) and Israel (Amos 9:1-4; Mal. 3:2-5) are targets of
judgment, which the OT sees as purification of God's people and world
so that his creative and covenantal purposes are fulfilled: "The
earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover
the sea" (Isa. 11:9).
The intertestamental period focuses on the punishment, usually by
disaster, of God's enemies, human and supernatural (Eth. Enoch 10:6;
105:3-4). Where such judgment did not take place in history, where
the wicked flourished and the righteous suffered (cf. Pss. 37; 73),
divine justice was questioned. The problem was solved with the view
that judgment was not limited to history but could occur after death
(Ps. Sol. 3:1ff.; Eth. Enoch) when God or the Son of man would
execute judgment in the last day (II Esd. 7; Eth. Enoch).
The NT builds on OT and intertestamental teaching, expanding it in
light of Christ's incarnation. In the Synoptics, Jesus announces
himself as the eschatological judge (Mark 15:62) and calls attention
to the day of judgment (Matt. 10:15; 11:22, 24; 12:36, 41-42; 23:33),
describing it as a final separation of the evildoers from the
righteous (Matt. 13:41-43, 47-50). Jesus' parables indicate that his
purpose is not to frame an eschatological timetable but so to teach
the fact of judgment that his hearers face their present decisions
for or against the kingdom with utter seriousness. In the longest
judgment parable Jesus' point is that the ultimate outcome will be
determined by whether the nations receive or reject his"brethren"
who come to them with the gospel message (Matt. 25:31-46).
John's Gospel underscores the tie between present human decisions and
future divine judgment: believers do not go through judgment but have
already crossed from death to life (5:24); the disobedient will not
see life but are already under wrath (3:36). Final judgment,
committed by the Father to the Son (5:26-27), will follow the
resurrection of both the evil and the good (5:28-29), sealing the
decree that human faith or disobedience has already determined.
Paul amplifies these themes: judgment is connected with Christ's
coming and the resurrection of the dead (I Cor. 15:22-25); Christ is
judge (II Tim. 4:1); Christians share in the judging (I Cor. 6:2-3);
judgment is fair (Rom. 2:11), universal (Rom. 2:6), thorough (Rom.
2:16); through justification, judgment is robbed of terror for
believers, whose sins have been judged on the cross (Rom. 3:21-26;
8:1, 31-34); believers' judgment consists of rewards for good works
(Rom. 14:10; II Cor. 5:10) manifested when the purging fires clear
away all dross (I Cor. 3:13-15); final judgment of unbelievers,
exclusion from God's presence, is a recurrent theme, much of it
stated in OT language (I Thess. 5:3; II Thess. 1:9; Phil. 1:28; 3:19;
Rom. 6:21); divine judgment is both present and future reality (Rom.
1:18-32).
Jude and II Peter use some of the Bible's fiercest language to depict
the fate of the wicked teachers (incipient Gnostics?) who misled the
faithful by mocking their hope of a second coming and encouraging
licentious living because they did not fear a final judgment (II Pet.
3:3-7; Jude 3-4). These letters see the final judgment as the
ultimate act in a historical pattern (II Pet. 2:4-10; Jude 5-7), an
act that should prompt righteous living by its cosmic power to
destroy even the very heavens (II Pet. 3:11-13).
Revelation pictures a tribulation poured out on the earth as a
judgment just before the final judgment (seven trumpets, 8-11; seven
bowls, 16). As the first step in the final judgment the evil leaders
whose blasphemous activities sparked the tribulation are captured in
battle by the triumphant Christ and consigned to the lake of fire
(19:20-21). Next Satan, the ultimate source of evil, is seized and
bound for the duration of the millennium (20:1-3). His release
results in further deception of the nations, a clear sign that God's
final judgment is deserved, even after a thousand years of Christ's
perfect rule the nations persist in their sin. The throne and the
books symbolize a careful, accurate process based on well-kept
records (20:11-15). The scene is cosmic in scope: earth and sky flee
to be replaced by a new heaven and earth (20:11; 21:1); the damage to
creation done by human sin is reversed, as the OT prophets foresaw
(Isa. 11:6-9; 65:17-25) and Paul depicted (Rom. 8:22-23).
The theological implications of the biblical teaching are that final
judgment is (1) the ultimate triumph of God's will and the consummate
display of his glory in history, the sign that all he intended has
been accomplished; (2) the cosmic declaration that God is just, all
affronts to his glory are punished and all recognition of it is
rewarded; (3) the climax of Christ's ministry, as the Apostles' Creed
affirms; (4) the reminder that human and cosmic history move toward a
goal, measured by the purposes of God; (5) the absolute seal of human
accountability, all believers are held responsible for their works,
all unbelievers for their rebellion; (6) the most serious motive for
Christian mission, in the face of such judgment the world's only hope
is Christ's salvation (Acts 4:12).
Belief in the last judgment was uniformly endorsed in the early
creeds and the Reformation confessions. Except where the various
ancient and modern forms of universalism have held sway, Christians
have accepted the fact of final judgment, though its form and timing
have been strongly debated.

Last Judgment, General Judgment
Catholic Information
(Judicium Universale, Last Judgment).
I. EXISTENCE OF THE GENERAL JUDGMENT
1
Few truths are more often or more clearly proclaimed in Scripture
than that of the general judgment. To it the prophets of the Old
Testament refer when they speak of the"Day of the Lord" (Joel 2:31;
Ezekiel 13:5; Isaiah 2:12), in which the nations will be summoned to
judgment. In the New Testament the second Parusia, or coming of
Christ as Judge of the world, is an oft-repeated doctrine. The
Saviour Himself not only foretells the event but graphically portrays
its circumstances (Matthew 24:27 sqq.; 25:31 sqq.). The Apostles give
a most prominent place to this doctrine in their preaching (Acts
10:42; 17:31) and writings (Romans 2:5-16; 14:10; 1 Corinthians 4:5;
2 Corinthians 5:10; 2 Timothy 4:1; 2 Thessalonians 1:5; James 5:7).
Besides the name Parusia (parousia), or Advent (1 Corinthians 15:23;
2 Thessalonians 2:19), the Second Coming is also called Epiphany,
epiphaneia, or Appearance (2 Thessalonians 2:8; 1 Timothy 6:14; 2
Timothy 4:1; Titus 2:13), and Apocalypse (apokalypsis), or Revelation
(2 Thessalonians 2:7; 1 Peter 4:13). The time of the Second Coming is
spoken of as"that Day" (2 Timothy 4:8)," the day of the Lord" (1
Thessalonians 5:2)," the day of Christ" (Philemon 1:6)," the day of
the Son of Man" (Luke 17:30)," the last day" (John 6:39-40).
2
The belief in the general judgment has prevailed at all times and in
all places within the Church. It is contained as an article of faith
in all the ancient creeds: "He ascended into heaven. From thence He
shall come to judge the living and the dead" (Apostles' Creed). He
shall come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead"
(Nicene Creed).”From thence he shall come to judge the living and
the dead, at whose coming all men must rise with their bodies and are
to render an account of their deeds" (Athanasian Creed). Relying on
the authority of Papias, several Fathers of the first four centuries
advanced the theory of a thousand years' terrestrial reign of Christ
with the saints to precede the end of the World (see article on
MILLENNIUM). Though this idea is interwoven with the eschatological
teachings of those writers, it in no way detracted from their belief
in a universal world-judgment. Patristic testimony to this dogma is
clear and unanimous.
3
The Roman Catechism thus explains why, besides the particular
judgment of each individual, a general one should also be passed on
the assembled world: "The first reason is founded on the
circumstances that most augment the rewards or aggravate the
punishments of the dead. Those who depart this life sometimes leave
behind them children who imitate the conduct of their parents,
descendants, followers; and others who adhere to and advocate the
example, the language, the conduct of those on whom they depend, and
whose example they follow; and as the good or bad influence or
example, affecting as it does the conduct of many, is to terminate
only with this world; justice demands that, in order to form a proper
estimate of the good or bad actions of all, a general judgment should
take place... . Finally, it was important to prove, that in
prosperity and adversity, which are sometimes the promiscuous lot of
the good and of the bad, everything is ordered by an all-wise, all-
just, and all-ruling Providence: it was therefore necessary not only
that rewards and punishments should await us in the next life but
that they should be awarded by a public and general judgment.”
II. SIGNS THAT ARE TO PRECEDE THE GENERAL JUDGMENT
The Scriptures mention certain events which are to take place before
the final judgment. These predictions were not intended to serve as
indications of the exact time of the judgment, for that day and hour
are known only to the Father, and will come when least expected. They
were meant to foreshadow the last judgment and to keep the end of the
world present to the minds of Christians, without, however, exciting
useless curiosity and vain fears. Theologians usually enumerate the
following nine events as signs of the last judgment:
1. General Preaching of the Christian Religion
Concerning this sign the Saviour says: "And this gospel of the
kingdom, shall be preached in the whole world, for a testimony to all
nations, and then shall the consummation come" (Matthew 24:14). This
sign was understood by Chrysostom and Theophilus as referring to the
destruction of Jerusalem, but, according to the majority of
interpreters, Christ is here speaking of the end of the world.
2. Conversion of the Jews
According to the interpretation of the Fathers, the conversion of the
Jews towards the end of the world is foretold by St. Paul in the
Epistle to the Romans (11:25-26): "For I would not have you ignorant,
brethren, of this mystery, ... that blindness in part has happened
in Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles should come in. And so
all Israel should be saved as it is written: There shall come out of
Sion, he that shall deliver, and shall turn away ungodliness from
Jacob.”
3. Return of Enoch and Elijah
The belief that these two men, who have never tasted death, are
reserved for the last times to be precursors of the Second Advent was
practically unanimous among the Fathers, which belief they base on
several texts of Scripture. (Concerning Elijah see Malachi 4:5-6;
Sirach 48:10; Matthew 17:11; concerning Enoch see Sirach 44:16)
4. A Great Apostasy
As to this event St. Paul admonishes the Thessalonians (2
Thessalonians 2:3) that they must not be terrified, as if the day of
the Lord were at hand, for there must first come a revolt (he
apostasia).The Fathers and interpreters understand by this revolt a
great reduction in the number of the faithful through the abandonment
of the Christian religion by many nations. Some commentators cite as
confirmatory of this belief the words of Christ: "But yet the Son of
man, when he cometh, shall he find, think you, faith on earth?” (Luke
18:8).
5. The Reign of Antichrist
In the passage above mentioned (2 Thessalonians 2:3 sqq.) St. Paul
indicates as another sign of the day of the Lord, the revelation of
the man of sin, the son of perdition.”The man of sin"here described
is generally identified with the Antichrist, who, says St. John (1
John 2:18), is to come in the last days. Although much obscurity and
difference of opinion prevails on this subject, it is generally
admitted from the foregoing and other texts that before the Second
Coming there will arise a powerful adversary of Christ, who will
seduce the nations by his wonders, and persecute the Church.
6. Extraordinary Perturbations of Nature
The Scriptures clearly indicate that the judgment will be preceded by
unwonted and terrifying disturbances of the physical universe
(Matthew 24:29; Luke 21:25-26). The wars, pestilences, famines, and
earthquakes foretold in Matthew 24:6 sq., are also understood by some
writers as among the calamities of the last times.
7. The Universal Conflagration
In the Apostolic writings we are told that the end of the world will
be brought about through a general conflagration, which, however,
will not annihilate the present creation, but will change its form
and appearance (2 Peter 3:10-13; cf. 1 Thessalonians 5:2; Apocalypse
3:3, and 16:15). Natural science shows the possibility of such a
catastrophe being produced in the ordinary course of events, but
theologians generally tend to believe that its origin will be
entirely miraculous.
8. The Trumpet of Resurrection
Several texts in the New Testament make mention of a voice or trumpet
which will awaken the dead to resurrection (1 Corinthians 15:52; 1
Thessalonians 4:15; John 5:28). According to St. Thomas (Supplement
86:2) there is reference in these passages either to the voice or to
the apparition of Christ, which will cause the resurrection of the
dead.
9.”The Sign of the Son of Man Appearing in the Heavens.”
In Matthew 24:30, this is indicated as the sign immediately preceding
the appearance of Christ to judge the world. By this sign the Fathers
of the Church generally understand the appearance in the sky of the
Cross on which the Saviour died or else of a wonderful cross of
light.

“In between Jesus Christ and His destroying Incarnation of Mahavishnu called as Kalki there is a time given to human beings to rectify themselves, for them to enter into the Kingdom of God, which in the Bible is called as Last Judgment.
The population of the Earth is at the maximum these days because all those - practically all those who had aspirations to enter into the Kingdom of God - are born in modern times and are going to be born very soon. This is the most important times because Sahaja Yoga is the Last Judgment. It is fantastic to hear this but that's the fact. it's the Truth!
Though you can understand that Mother's Love makes it very easy for you to get to your Realization and that the whole story of Last Judgment - which looks such a horrifying experience - has been made very beautiful, and very tender, and delicate, and does not disturb you.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji Kundalini And Kalki Shakti, Bombay, India - September 28, 1979
“But they should also understand that this is the Golden Age of Emancipation, Resurrection and Last Judgment; if we can achieve it, all of us, including them also, will have the blessings of the Divine love which has been promised a long time back.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Of course there are some absurd things which grew with misinterpretation and interference from unholy people, which are common in these religions. For example, Jews, Christian and Muslims believe that when they die their bodies will come out of their graves and they will all be resurrected at the Time of Resurrection, at the Time of Last Judgment, at the Time of Qiyamah. It is illogical to think what will remain inside those graves after five hundred years. Nobody wants to think and understand that it is not the body but the soul that will come out of these bodies, be born again as human beings and be saved through Qiyamah and Resurrection.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
"This is the Last Judgment time, and everyone can judge him or herself through the light of the Spirit.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"The Last Judgment is done by the Kundalini. On the fingertips one can feel oneself and can judge oneself.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"These are the times described in the Holy Bible as the"Last Judgment"And in the Koran as"Qiyamah", the Resurrection Time. Astrologically it is also called the Age of Aquarius, the time of rebirth and of great spiritual development on the Earth.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"And in this great happening of the Last Judgment and the Resurrection Time, one need not, and should not, believe blindfolded in whatever is said about ascent or salvation, but should treat it like a hypothesis, and observe the facts with an open mind like a, scientist.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"In my opinion, every Westerner has, as a matter of urgency, to understand the vital role he has to play in this great Age of Transformation and of the Last Judgment.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Thus, the establishment of global peace can only come through people who have achieved this state in modern times which is very special and I call it a Blossom Time. In the Bible, it is described as the Last Judgment, also in the Koran it is called as Qiyamah (the Resurrection time).”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"This is the Last Judgment. Either you will go to heaven or you will go to hell. it's already working out like that. So let's see. Where are you? So I have to again and again tell you as your mother, I have to correct you and tell you that remember this is the Last Judgment and please, don't take anymore to the activities which are antichrist.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Now this is the Last Judgment and those who miss will miss in any case. Christ has said," You will be calling Me Christ, Christ, but I will not recognize you.” "
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"So in this Last Judgment a new race, new race of great people is created. It is your own. It is your own power. Only to know how glorious you are. How great you are. Absolutely free because you get that superior intelligence. In the light of Spirit you know what is constructive for you. You know absolute knowledge.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"So, as it is, you are already marked, you have already been chosen by Christ in his Last Judgment, and you are there. But still one should know that there is also the possibility that you are hypocrites, that you are playing with only words. Could be that we still have to cleanse ourselves, so just put your mind into yourself, and just see for yourself that where have I gone wrong.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"People do not know what time has come. It is the last chance. You won't get any more chance. In Bible it has been described as the Last Judgment. Your Last Judgment is in Sahaja Yoga and how it will be done can be judged by yourself.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"This is the Last Judgment. Let us see what happens. Whatever people come is alright for me. Even if they do not come, it's still alright. Remember, God will not bow before you.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"For us, in between Christ and this destroying incarnation of Mahavishnu called as Kalki, there is a time given to human beings to rectify themselves, for them to enter in the Kingdom of God, which in the Bible is called as the Last Judgment. That you will be judged, all of you will be judged on this earth.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
"I have to warn all the Sahaja Yogis who are here because Sahaja Yoga is the Last Judgment; not only that you will be judged, that you are entering into the Kingdom of God, but you become the citizens of God is correct.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
"I am here to work for you day and night. You know that I work very hard for you. I spare no efforts, to help you, and do everything that is possible to make you all right; to make you pass this examination of Last Judgment; but you have to cooperate with me, and you have to go headlong about it, and devote most of your time for Sahaja Yoga and for imbibing all that is great and noble.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"This is the greatest of the greatest things which can happen to anyone that you know. Also you know, this is the greatest happening, which was prophesied long time back as the Last Judgment. You know that this is the way, you are going to be judged. So we have to work very hard. We have to work. It is effortlessly given to you, alright. But to maintain it, keep it up to go high, we have to religiously work it out.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"And that your Last Judgment is also now. Only through Kundalini awakening God is going to judge you. How is he going to judge you otherwise? You think of somebody now, a person comes in now. Here is somebody sitting to judge you. How? By how many hair-dressers you have been to? Or how many suits you have stitched for Christmas? Or what presents you have bought or how many cards you have sent? and to how many people you have sent some other things which may not be very palatable. That's not the way.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"This is the most important time because Sahaja Yoga is the Last Judgment. It is fantastic to have this but that's a fact & is the truth. Though you can understand, that Mother's love makes it very easy for you to get through your realization and that the whole story of the Last Judgment looks such as horrifying experience has been made very beautiful and very tender and delicate and does not disturb you. But this is the Last Judgment I tell you, and you all are going to be judged through Sahaja Yoga, whether, you can enter into the kingdom of God or not.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"The Last Judgment has started. We are facing the Last Judgment today. We are not aware of it. And all the satanic forces have come out like the wolves in sheep's clothes. And they are trying to attract you and you do not judge them. You only sit down and judge the Reality. It has started, it is a fact. It has started.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"That Krishna has said once you get your realisation your problems are solved, physical, emotional, mental, all problems are solved and you become absolutely relaxed. That goes without saying. But I'm not here to sort of cure people and go to hospitals. Nothing of the kind. it's just who are the seekers will be blessed because this is the reward of this Last Judgment.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
"Christ has said very clearly in the second chapter of Matthew 2nd verse"You'll be calling me Christ! Christ! I won't recognize you.” That's very true. It is not a question of who recognises Him, but He should recognize you because the advent of Christ is going to be absolutely terrible. He is not going to talk to you, convince you or comfort you or give you any council as I am trying my level best, but He will just come for the Last Sorting out because I declare that the Last Judgment has started. The Last Judgment takes place only through Kundalini awakening. There is no other way out. God is going to do it through living process.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"But, logically, you must understand. Where should we reach? What should happen to us? As seekers, what are we expecting? This is a very, very precarious and important time is more to say. The Last Judgment has started. That has started. That's how you are all here and you are seeking. The way it will judge, is the Kundalini has to rise. Your have to become self realized. Then you start feeling your centers on your fingers.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Sahaja Yoga is for the emancipation of the whole world, at every level. Once we have people of a certain number in Sahaja Yoga, it will start triggering understanding of real righteousness, religiousness and our love for God, and enlightened faith in God. This is how the Resurrection time is going to be worked out. This is the Last Judgment time, and everyone can judge him or herself through the light of the Spirit.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"If we have to change this world, and if we have to save our people from complete destruction, we have to take to wisdom, and that is only possible when the brain is enlightened by Kundalini. This is what is very important today, when we see that this world is on the verge of destruction. Of course, the Creator himself is very anxious to save us and that is why he has in these modern times which are called Kali Yuga, made the all-pervading power activated.
So, now a new age has started which is called the Age of Aquarius,
(Kumbha) meaning the pitcher carrier of spiritual holy water that is the work of Kundalini. The activity of the Kundalini is like the sap of the tree that rises and nourishes all parts of the tree and does not get stuck at one flower (centre). Moreover these are special times. This is the resurrection time. The Last Judgment is done by the Kundalini. On the fingertips one can feel oneself and can judge oneself.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Of course, this is also the age of science and technology in which human beings have progressed beyond the stage of blind faith. And in this great happening of the Last Judgment and the Resurrection Time, one need not, and should not, believe blindfolded in whatever is said about ascent or salvation, but should treat it like a hypothesis, and observe the facts with an open mind like a, scientist. Of course, if a hypothesis is proved, then any honest, scientifically minded modern person has to accept it.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Now this is the Last Judgment and those who miss will miss in any case. Christ has said," You will be calling Me Christ, Christ, but I will not recognize you.”So understand you have to become the Spirit as Christ has said," You are to be born again.”You may have faith in me or not - doesn't matter. You must have faith in yourself to begin with.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"But in a way is good because this is Last Judgment. If by marriage, by temptations, by wrong doings, by conditionings if you have to go out, you have to go out.
I must tell you that also there's very little place in the Kingdom of God. Unless and until you prove to be good Sahaja Yogis, there is no place for you, for mediocre there is no place. You have to serious, deep, seeking, dedicated Sahaja Yogis otherwise you have no place.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"So this is the Last Judgment and you will be judged for everything that you do for Sahaja Yoga. One has to be very careful as to how you behave, what is your attitude is and how you should change.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Shri Krishna, as I have told you, was the incarnation of diplomacy. So He plays around quite a lot and ultimately He brings forth the untruth and the falsehood. But in doing that He judges people so it's very important that Shri Krishna's powers of His diplomacy were to be manifesting at this time when it is the Last Judgment.”
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
“Have full confidence. If you want to have your realisation, you all will get it
Ayez une confiance totale, si vous voulez votre réalisation du Soi, vous l'urez
I cannot force on you, because I respect your freedom
Et je ne peux pas forcer ce processus â l'intérieur de vous, parce que je respecte votre liberté
Immediately we'll know those who are not capable of knowing the Truth
Immédiatement nous verrons ceux qui ne sont pas capables de connaître la Vérité
All such people should leave the hall
Et tous ces gens devraient quitter la salle maintenant
It is not civil to disturb others if they want to have their ascent everybody has this right, legal right
Et il n'est pas poli du tout de déranger tous les gens qui veulent avoir cette ascension spirituelle, les gens qui ont le droit d'voir cette ascension spirituelle
If you want to miss your own ascent, you can go ahead, you can chose, the choice is yours, this is the Last Judgment
Si vous voulez passer â côté de votre ascension spirituelle, c'est votre choix, c'est maintenant le Jugement Dernier
And with this Last Judgment, you have to judge yourself
Et dans ce Jugement Dernier, vous devez vous juger vous-même
In the Koran it is very clearly said at the time of Resurrection, your hands will 'speak' and will give witness against you
Dans le Coran il est dit très clairement que au jour du Jugement Dernier, vos mains parleront et témoigneront contre vous
There is a very big chapter on Resurrection, but the fundamentalists don't want to look at it
Il y a un grand chapître sur la Résurrection dans le Coran, mais les fondamentalistes ne veulent pas le regarder
They believe their religion is the best
Ils pensent que leur religion est la meilleure
But what would it has done to anyone?
Mais quels bienfaits a-t-elle apportés â qui que ce soit?
It is so much misinterpreted... so much misinterpreted
Cela a été tellement mal interprété...
Now the time has come, this is a special time which is the time of Resurrection, this is the Qiyamah
Et maintenant le temps est venu, c'est le temps de la résurrection, c'est le Qiyamah
It is the special time of Last Judgment
C'est le temps très spécial du Jugement Dernier
where you have to judge yourself
O il vous faut vous juger vous-même
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
“This is the most important time because Sahaja Yoga is the Last Judgment. It is fantastic to have this, but that's a fact and is the truth, though you can understand that Mother's Love makes it very easy for you to get through your realisation, and that the whole story of the Last Judgment looks such as horrifying experience, has been made very beautiful and very tender and delicate and does not disturb you.
But this is the Last Judgment, I tell you, and you are all going to be judged through Sahaja Yoga, whether you can enter into the Kingdom of God or not.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
"Today, Sahaja Yoga has reached the state of Mahayoga, which is en- masse evolution manifested through it. It is this day's Yuga Dharma. It is the way the Last Judgment is taking place. Announce it to all the seekers of truth, to all the nations of the world, so that nobody misses the blessings of the Divine to achieve their meaning, their absolute, their spirit.”
The Paraclete Shri Mataji
"The main thing that one has to understand is that the time has come for you to get all that is promised in the scriptures, not only in the Bible but all the scriptures of the world. The time has come today that you have to become a Christian, a Brahmin, a Pir, through your Kundalini awakening only. There is no other way. And that your Last Judgment is also now.”
