Shri Mataji: "About Sahasrara nowhere in the scriptures something was described"
"It became apparent that something was really very wrong. The Paramchaitanya had been activated to make everything work miraculously but not a single Sahaja Yogi was interested in knowing what it was doing! Prophet Muhammad made a single journey on a Buraq and Muslims made a mountain out of it. Prophet Ezekiel had a vision of "Yahweh on a throne and four winged creatures bearing the faces of a man, lion, an ox and an eagle," and Jews made a nation out of it. Sun Myung Moon had a single vision of Christ and Koreans made a Universal Church out of it. Here was a child of the Great Adi Shakti who made more that a thousand journeys into the Kingdom of God, and Sahaja Yogis made a joke out of it!"
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
"Today we are celebrating the opening of the Sahasrara. On this day I
must say it was a great happening that took place on all the
humanity. It was such an achievement, which I never realized before.
Now I can see that without Self-Realization it would have been
impossible to talk to people.
Then this happened! I thought that how I will talk to people about it
because no one would understand Me and it would be a big mistake on
My part to say something about Sahasrara because even about Sahasrara
nowhere in the scriptures something was described. It was absolutely
an ambiguous description I would say where people could not even have
thought there is a realm beyond Sahasrara, and one has to enter that
realm where is the Reality.
That time what I saw around Me was darkness and unless and until
there are many Lights, people will never realize that how important
it is to have Light."
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
You Dissolve Into The Divine Power
Adi Shakti Puja, Cabella, Italy June 9, 1996
There has been nothing written about Sahasrara before. In none of
the scriptures Sahasrara is described. Nobody knew anything about
Sahasrara. They just left it at the Agnya Chakra finished! They
could only go until Agnya and nothing has been written about
Sahasrara so far. And there is no mantra written about Sahasrara.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
The Announcement, Sahasrara Puja, Fuiggi, Italy May 6, 1990
All three of my main kundalini teachers refused categorically to
discuss the seventh chakra. They felt that this chakra should be
encountered without preconceptions of any kind to interfere with
direct experience.
It is therefore with a bit of hesitation that I write anything at all
about this ultimate chakra... The Sanskrit name of this energy center
is sahasrara, which means to multiply by a thousand. In a looser
translation, sahasrara means tapping into the infinite spiritual
dimensions that lie beyond the personal parameters of consciousness.
Awakening the seventh chakra is most definitely an experience in
which we transcend our individual minds and enter into perfect
conscious harmony with the infinite spiritual wholeness of the
universe.
The ancient Chinese book of wisdom, the Tao Te Ching by Lao-tzu,
begins by saying that it is impossible to vocalize a name for the
ultimate God. In like manner there is no chant for this chakra. The
sound that comes to you in meditation upon this chakra is nothing
less than the sound of the universe vibrating directly within you...
Let me simply say that the seventh chakra is the swirling energy
vortex located right in the top of your head and swirling also above
the top of your head, where you transcend individual consciousness
and tap into infinite consciousness. You are gone. There is
no you. There is only infinite consciousness, of which you are an
integral part.
This egoless experience brings you into an ultimate state of
spiritual bliss. In fact, the remarkable thing about the seventh-
chakra consciousness is that it seems to be bliss itself. The
universal consciousness, if we were to give it any label at all,
would be Bliss Consciousness. This is all we can say.

The Second Permission
With the explicit confirmation of Kash and Lalita's identities by
Shri TriGunatmika Shri Nirmala Devi, all relevant information was
reintroduced back into Shri Adi Shakti: The Kingdom of God.
However, there was a lingering sense of uneasiness as their father
struggled against rejection and ridicule from all sides. There was
disbelieve, even outright rejection among North American Sahaja Yogis
who knew about these spiritual journeys, and most turned a deaf ear.
Some Sahaja Yogis felt that Kash was being self-advertised; that
there were ulterior, selfish motives in writing this book; that his
father was throwing his spiritual weight around by claiming he had
Knowledge they should know. Others scorned and scoffed at the idea of
consent being obtained from Shri Mataji in the Sahasrara. They
regarded this attempt by a spiritual rookie to write a book, without
any Divine Knowledge whatsoever, as atrocious. Those bristling with
Vedic knowledge were furious that such claims being made. They had
never come across any Hindu scripture describing such phenomena
taking place. The fact that a kid was making such a claim immediately
after having his Kundalini awakened only agitated their minds
further. How could that be possible when they had spent decades
reading sacred scriptures, praying, fasting, meditating, and doing
penance just like their ancestors did for thousands of years? Kash
siddhis (spiritual powers) were the work of spirit possession and
nothing else. The father was told to shut up before he damaged Sahaja
Yoga, and stop Kash before he damaged his head.
The father thought otherwise. He looked at the deluded, divided
masses of humanity and then peered far into the approaching
millennium, and understood perfectly what Shri Mataji had meant when
She said that, "if you have to really bring them round through
discussion and argument, you must first of all be well equipped with
the Knowledge of Sahaja Yoga." Hundreds of thousands had been given
Self-Realization (Atmajnana) but hardly a fraction stayed back. There
are so many thousands of religious and spiritual stalls in the
international bazaar that it is difficult for these spiritual
shoppers to make an educated choice as all profess to possess Truth
and the path to spiritual release.
It became apparent that something was really very wrong. The
Paramchaitanya had been activated to make everything work
miraculously but not a single Sahaja Yogi was interested in knowing
what it was doing! Prophet Muhammad made a single journey on a Buraq
and Muslims made a mountain out of it. Prophet Ezekiel had a vision
of "Yahweh on a throne and four winged creatures bearing the faces of
a man, lion, an ox and an eagle," and Jews made a nation out of it.
Sun Myung Moon had a single vision of Christ and Koreans made a
Universal Church out of it. Here was a child of the Great Adi
Shakti who made more that a thousand journeys into the Kingdom of
God, and Sahaja Yogis made a joke out of it!
It became imperative that the consent of the physical Shri Adi Shakti
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi be obtained orally to counter all doubts and
validate the stupendous Truth that had manifested in North America.
Kash's revelations confirmed Her insistence years ago that America is
a great spiritual land undergoing subtle change. Something had to
happen and it did happen. Moreover, She had declared after the
universal opening of the Sahasrara on May 5, 1970 that one day
every thing about Her will be revealed. More than two decades have
passed. When is that going to happen? How is Her Reality going to be
revealed? Who is the Great Messiah that hundreds of millions are
waiting Sai Baba? Sun Myung Moon? Mother Meera? If Sahaja Yogis are
claiming that Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi is the One, what proof do they
have? If She declared that Her Truth will destroy all falsehood and
corrupted religious institutions, wasn't this prophecy going to begin
manifesting in a spectacular way? Who will be fulfilling Nostradamus'
forecast of "the new Messiah being one who will shake down the dogmas
of fossilized religious thought."
On October 6, 1995, a transcript of this book and the 'miracle'
photograph was handed to Shri Mataji through Sahaja Yogi Manoj in New
York, USA, at Her public program.
A few days later on October 16, 1995, at 8:50 p.m. in Toronto,
Canada, Kash father and SY James approached Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
after She had finished explaining to a Punjabi textile-shop owner
about the greatness of Guru Nanak and the Self-Realization that He
talked about. James wanted an answer to a question, which was: "Shri
Mataji, am I your son?" She replied without hesitation, "Of course
you are!" Then SY Jay Chudasama, the Canadian representative, told
Her about the intention of Kash's father to publish. Shri Mataji
replied that She had not the time to read the transcript, but he
should still go ahead.
By again seeking Her consent, both Her physical Being on Earth and
Her spirit Being in the Sahasrara were approached, and express
permission obtained.
But there was little faith among the Sahaja Yogis about Shri Mataji's
granting of permission. Hardly had Shri Mataji left Canada when he
received a call from Toronto bluntly advising that there was nothing
he could offer to the Sahaja Yogis as they knew `everything,' and had
been Her devotees for many years. In other words, they were senior
yogis; so what did he know that they didn't? How could an amateur
Sahaja Yogi who knew next to nothing about spiritualism write a book?
What Knowledge could he offer that they did not possess?
They had a perfect answer to their rejection reactions: Shri Mahamaya
is playing tricks with both father and son. Sooner or later these
spiritual pariahs will be exposed, and the matter laid to rest.
