Shri Kalki Is Manifesting
Kalki Avatar, the Coming Prophet by Swami Amar Jyoti
THE PROPHETS ARE A DIRECT DESCENT OF THE LORD on earth, Incarnations
of the Divine. They come to set things right, to harmonize, balance
and uplift, to make righteousness and truth prevail. Each time the
Prophets come, They are harbingers of a new age. They come at the
juncture when one age is closing and another is beginning. A Prophet
is not only one who makes prophecies, such as Nostradamus, although
in English that is a usage of the term. Jesus, Buddha and Krishna
are all Prophets, but They did not come only to make prophecies. Far
beyond that. The more accurate word is Avatar, which comes from the
Sanskrit avatirna: "manifest/descent from the Lord." As Sri Krishna
revealed to His disciple Arjuna five thousand years ago, recorded in
the Bhagavad Gita:
Whenever there is degradation of Dharma (virtue/righteousness)
O Bharata, and growth of adharma (wickedness/unrighteousness)
Then I embody Myself
For the protection of the good (virtuous)
For the destruction of the wicked (evil)
To establish Dharma
I take forth a body in Age after Age
Bhagavad Gita IV: 7-8
HOW DOES THE SUPREME LORD WORK THROUGH HIS PROPHETS to establish or
restore balance and harmony, without which the creation would not
function? Does He leave His abode and come, or does He send His
emissary or Son? How does He take the shape of Spirit embodied as a
Prophet? What is this phenomenon? Who is the Son of God? Who is
Vishnu and Who is Krishna? Who is the Father in heaven and Who is
Jesus? Who is the Buddha and Who the Bodhisattva? How does this
marriage of the Spirit and mind take place? The answer is not new
except in context: God is omnipotent. He can assume any form.
Wherever He takes form, He does not have to leave "there." He can
take an infinite number of forms, simultaneously.
Yogis have proved this, appearing in several places while never
leaving the place where they are. If a yogi can exist in different
bodies at various places simultaneously, then just magnify that for
the Lord—His powers are infinite. Those who are conversant with
Krishna's Ras Lila know that He danced with each gopi, or milkmaid,
simultaneously, and each gopi saw and felt Krishna is with me. It
may sound allegorical but yogically it has been proven.
God assumes form in a particular dimension and combination of
elements, such as on Earth, without leaving His eternal abode. He
can do this simultaneously in billions and billions of forms, in the
twinkling of an eye. If this were not true, how could God be in
everyone? He has already "become" everything. That is God's
omnipotence and omnipresence. We can easily understand from this how
the Kingdom of God is within everyone, how God is in everyone,
Spirit is in everyone. He comes as the Avatar and manifests the
force or power according to the mission of the age.
It does not have to be only one Son—do not limit God. At different
times and places He incarnates differently. Therefore it is useless
to compare one Prophet with another. Comparison is our human folly.
We want to compare and think ourselves great enough to judge the
Prophets when we cannot even remove our own headache. We twinkle too
much. When you repeat the name of God or the Prophets, be humble.
WHEN DHARMA—LAW, JUSTICE, RIGHTEOUSNESS, GOODNESS—declines below a
minimum level and it is beyond the sages, holy people or yogis to
raise the consciousness and purify the Earth, then God incarnates to
take care of His children. He comes with special powers and
bounties, among which are prosperity, beauty, strength, wisdom and
justice. According to the Vedic scriptures, human or Earth evolution
forms cycles of approximately twenty-five thousand years. God
incarnates in each cycle, about every two thousand five hundred
years. In the present cycle Lord Vishnu has taken nine Incarnations
or Avatars, among whom are Rama and Krishna. Buddha, the ninth and
last Incarnation, lived around twenty-five hundred years ago. The
Prophet of a particular age may come as peaceful and nonviolent, or
as a warrior to vanquish evil—whatever we have asked for or the
situation demands. To Him, violence and nonviolence are not
opposites but a means to uphold and uplift humanity and
consciousness; Dharma transcends both violence and nonviolence. At
any cost Dharma must prevail; justice will be done; humanity has to
be uplifted. In each age, the Prophet knows best what methods are
required to reach us to the next evolution.
Kalki, as per the scriptures, is the tenth Incarnation. The name
Kalki means literally, "of iron" or "machine." It does not imply
that He is a robot made of metal, but that His birth is in the age
of iron or machines. The Vedic scriptures describe time in a cycle
of four ages or yugas: the Golden Age, Silver Age, Copper Age and
Iron Age. Our present age is the Iron Age, therefore Kalki is the
Avatar of this iron or machine age. There are varying opinions about
the time of Kalki's coming. Some interpretations say that it is very
near. Others say He has come already. These are not mere opinions
but commentaries by great scholars and pundits. The Kali Yuga has
been described as a time of adharma—injustice, unrighteousness,
untruth. If we accept some calculations, we have not even reached
the lowest point of this age. If that is so, imagine what it will be
at its worst!
The scriptures have described Kalki coming "as a blazing Light" when
He descends from heaven; the Second Coming of Jesus is similarly
described. There are parallel beliefs about the coming World Prophet
in various other faiths as well. Kalki is described as coming on a
white horse with sword in hand. Though in today's world of bombs and
lasers, a sword seems outdated, the Second Advent of Jesus is
similarly predicted to appear on a white horse carrying a sword.
Buddha is described a little differently. The Prophet will have a
halo of light around Him. This has been taken by some to be the
aura, but auras everyone has; not everyone has a halo. Everyone is
potentially Divine but the Prophets are already manifestations of
the Divine.
So either there are three Prophets coming together—because the job
is very serious and one Prophet will not be able to do it all (!)—or
the three are One, whatever name or label we give. Their way will be
terrible in any case, what in the Bible is called Armageddon.
According to the predictions, Christ will come and fight the anti-
Christ and his forces. He will not be nonviolent. Whatever the
manifestation may be, this is a time of great change, a quantum leap—
that we cannot dispute. Only the timing we do not know for sure.
ULTIMATELY HE WILL BE VICTORIOUS OVER EVIL. The mission of each
Prophet is the same: to uphold righteousness, to save the virtuous
and demolish evil. If previously a Prophet incarnated as forgiving
and suffering, like Buddha and Jesus, that does not mean that He
will come the same way next time. Even if the Prophets could repeat
the same drama in different details for the same purpose, this
present time is such, that not only is humanity in need of
uplifting, but also the Earth's evolution awaits God's intervention.
The planet itself is transforming into a higher dimension, so the
Prophet's mission has to be different. Much of what will occur will
be on the astral levels because the next dimensions, the fourth and
fifth, are subtler than our present gross third dimension.
There is no doubt that Kalki will come and save the virtuous. He may
demolish the evildoers—not every common one but those who are real
devils. Were He to be compassionate or forgiving of them, they would
become more wicked. It reminds me of the story in the Bible of Sodom
and Gomorrah. Abraham was a man of God. When he heard that the
angels were going to destroy the city, he had pity and compassion
for the people. He prayed, Lord, there are some good people there.
Will You destroy the whole city and everybody in it because of some
villains there? What if there are fifty good people? Will You still
destroy the city? And God said, If there are fifty good people, I
won't destroy the city. Then Abraham got more pitying and asked,
What if there are fifty minus five, forty-five good people? Then
will You destroy the city? God said If there are forty-five good
people, I will not destroy the city. It is human nature that when
God relents and yields, we ask for more. So Abraham said, What if
there are only forty good people? In this way it came down to
thirty, twenty-five, then twenty.
At this point Abraham felt self-conscious. He said, God, I have been
really insolent to You and taking too much advantage of Your
leniency, but one last question. God said, What is it? Abraham
asked, What if there are only ten good people? God promised, If
there are ten good people, I will not destroy the city. But there
were only four good people: Lot, his wife, and two daughters. Two
angels entered the city and were guests of Lot; right there and then
the people's wickedness came out against them. Lot's family got
scared but the angels blinded everyone and told Lot, Abscond from
this city safely. No one will see you. And eventually the city was
destroyed. There are many wicked people on Earth and they will come
out more so as time goes by. It will not be hidden anymore.
WHEN THE PROPHETS COME They trigger or accelerate karmas. Then
whatever is inside a person will expose, either good or bad. That
which was previously suppressed or hidden is exposed. In Krishna's
days, He brought out both the virtuous and the evil, exposing people
as they had never been known before. Krishna knew each soul already
and so will Kalki. The Prophets create situations—time, place and
opportunity—which bring forth both the angelic as well as the
devilish.
During Rama's age, Manthara was a maidservant, supposedly a good
lady, serving Rama's stepmother. But given the right circumstances,
Manthara came out wicked and became the cause of Rama's exile.
Therefore, according to Vedanta, we never take for granted: good as
good, or bad as bad, absolutely. We wait for exposure or unfoldment.
That is the way of the lila or play—to let it unfold by its own
natural laws rather than condemn someone ahead of time. Their coming
and Presence alone triggers exposure. In every Incarnation this is a
fact.
Jesus' disciples appeared to be all good people. They followed Him
and gave up everything. How many of them proved to be really
steadfast? Probably a few, including the two Marys—Mary Magdalene
and His mother. Nearly everyone else faltered—the cock crowing three
times, the thirty pieces of silver, etcetera. The Prophet knows but
He may not expose or declare until the right time comes. Those who
are afraid of being exposed, once they are, turn evil, reviling,
revengeful, inimical, negative and so on. Before that they carry on
very well: courteous, honest. Exposure is the test. Whatever the
Avatars do, we know that it will not be easy. If it were easy, They
would not need to come.
Why does God do all this? One very simple word—whether you are
Hindu, Christian or Buddhist—because He loves us. He does "horrible"
things if that is the only way we leave open. We force Him to do
that when we give no other choice. The only alternative is to not do
anything, but would God allow adharma—unrighteousness—to triumph
over Dharma—righteousness? That would be the end of the creation!
Very commonly we hear and read, God loves you, which is true, but
from the Vedic point of view, it is written that God loves us so
much that in every age He comes on Earth to take care of us. If He
did not love us, He would not bother to come and save us. Not only
does God love us—God is Love. What does this mean in relation to the
Prophets? They really love us—but They do not harp on it.
ALL LIFE ON EARTH—HUMAN, ANIMAL, TREES AND PLANTS—responds to the
vibrations of love. We have seen that plants grow better when we
lovingly tend them; animals respond to us better if we have love and
harmlessness in our hearts. If we were truly loving, we would not
invite destruction. When you come to love, pure love, you will
easily see why everyone, whether in family life, social life or
ashram life, is hankering after love. That is the only tangible
thing. Try to do spiritual practices for thirty or fifty years
without feelings—it will go nowhere, like bullocks with blinders
going `round and `round a mill grinding seeds; in the evening they
are in the same spot where they started; no progress.
You have to truly love and serve the Lord with a very pure heart,
not in competition with someone else or jealousy or prejudice
against other cultures and religions. You cannot get near heaven or
God that way. Your love has to unite with God's Love. What is more
consoling and satisfying than love? If you are trying to serve the
Lord to impress Him, you are doomed. Even Lucifer demanded from God
that he had been near and had every right to be near. But Lucifer
had lost the way and became egotistical, selfish and ambitious. Love
is not a matter of rights.
We do need love; and are hungry after it. That is the only language
we actually understand. God accepts love only when it comes from
purity of heart. If He comes on a white horse with a sword and
throws fire and brimstone, what other option does He have? Some are
afraid to read or hear about such things, but what if we leave God
no other choice? We seldom think about that. We do not realize what
ego has become: stubborn, demanding, willful, selfish. We have
difficulty in loving very purely, unconditionally, as if, by loving
the Lord unconditionally, we become nothing. This struggle goes on.
Therefore I consider His coming in a destructive aspect to be a
blessing in disguise, His mercy. God sees our deeds and our hearts,
but mainly the heart. Whatever is based upon ego separation is the
greatest and worst sin. That is blindness, which is exactly what ego
is.
Humility softens us, purifies us and takes us out of these stubborn
ruts. It is an indispensable prerequisite to reach the chamber of
love. The meek shall inherit the Earth. True humility purifies the
heart. Those who are proud, arrogant, willful, ambitious,
competitive, jealous and untruthful cannot love the Lord, even if
they profess to. They eventually prove to be revengeful betrayers.
Why? Because they were not truly humble in the first place! They may
have looked good simply because they were yet to be exposed. They
did not love the Lord or their Master, they cared only for
themselves.
Today it is a common "philosophy" that unless you love yourself, you
cannot love others. Quite the reverse. If it were the True Self,
that would be different, but those who proclaim this mean to love
themselves: their ego and mind. That is the travesty or perversion
of this age, the Kali Yuga—boosting the ego. The only language
through which we can unite with the Lord/True Self is love, and
that is the meaning of unconditional love. Every other love is
conditioned and therefore selfish, possessive, attached, which
brings in insecurity and weakness.
Kalki will help us. The Second Advent of Christ will help us. That
is what the Prophets come for; that is Their work. Allow Them to do
it. Stand by Them. Those who stand by God are devotees. Krishna
openly said: I have come to save my devotees. It was not partiality;
He came to save the virtuous. So if you want God's manifestation or
birth on Earth, if you want to be His instrument, you have to be
pure-hearted.
That ego-demolishing or humbling is what makes you wise. It is
genuine love that God sees, in which ego is non-existent, or at
least humbled. If you have that, the Prophet is with you.
Distinguish between true goodness and so-called goodness. When Jesus
sat at the last supper and exposed his own disciples, they all
shuddered, fearing what He might say. Some would deny Him. Some
would betray Him. Others would leave Him. Had He said more, perhaps
only a few would have remained.
WHO WILL STAND BY THE COMING AVATAR? IT WILL BE MULTITUDES. He
cannot do His work alone. It will be a colossal destruction. The
real test is when we are put against the wall, tight-cornered. Then
our true nature comes out. Do you think, therefore, that the coming
Prophet cannot distinguish? Many surprises may follow; you may be
alarmed.
A wound or sickness must be exposed by a doctor so it can be healed.
Hiding the disease from the doctor will not help. You may not
welcome exposure but accept it with humility if it is true. Then God
will clear it and clean it. This the language of love: He means good
even when it is painful. When a doctor operates, it is very painful,
but then he puts on a balm to heal you. God and Gurus do the same:
They may seem hurtful at times but then They put a balm on the
injury, curing it nicely—if you humbly allow Them.
Have faith. He will take care of your salvation. Live for God's
sake; eat for God's sake; look after your family for God's sake;
earn money for God's sake; be charitable for God's sake; use your
talents for God's sake; sing for God's sake. If you are fearful,
your love is deficient. He does not like us to fear Him. When you
purely, fully love Him, you will be free from all anxiety, fear,
worry and doubt. Instead of focusing on your deficiencies, just love
the Lord. There is nothing greater than that.

QUOTES OF SHRI MATAJI
"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."

Horoscope of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi – by Lalit Bhandari
(given during Tour of Australia – 22 October 1991 )
Shri Ganeshaya Namah, I seek the blessings of Lord Shri Ganesha...
While making the comparative study and analysis of horoscopes of different Divine personalities a very pleasant and astounding observation has been made. This study has been described in great detail with specific analysis of the horoscope of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. The Divine personalities studied are Lord Krishna, Lord Buddha, Lord Christ, Prophet Mohammed, Guru Nanak Dev, Shri Chaitanya Maha-Prabhu, Adi Shankarancharya and Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi. The data on the horoscopes for all others is taken from notable horoscopes by Shri B.V. Raman, the world famous astrologer.
It is observed from the various planetary combinations that the following combinations are very rare and are indicative of the Divinity of the person. These are:
1. Gajkesari Yoga or 5th, 9th position of the Moon and Jupiter. This indicates past Punyas, Punya Sanchaya or highly religious past lives.
2. Saturn aspects the Lagna, it shows the concern for the Masses and the ability for Tapasya – Penance.
3. Ketu the Mokshakarak planet should be in the 9th Dharmasthana showing the Dharma that is established within and not outwardly… and the truthfulness. This planet gives the capacity to go all alone.
4. Lagna being aspected by Jupiter and Lagnesh aspected by Jupiter is an added strength giving one the capacity to become world Guru (Jagatguru).
5. Venus or Mercury is the ruling planet in all the cases. If both are there it is excellent because both the planets are Dnyan Karak.
It may be noted that these combinations are present in the horoscopes of all the abovementioned personalities in different quantums (Ansha). In case of Shri Mataji all these combinations are present in full strength. No.4 combination and No.5 combination is particularly observed to be very strong in case of Shri Mataji as compared to others. Shri Mataji is born in Gemini Lagna (whose Lord is Mercury) with Moon in Bharani Nakshatra (whose Lord is Venus), which means She is under the ruling aspect of Mercury and Venus.
Shri Mataji is born, 21st. March 1923 - 13 years and 11 months balance of Venus Dasha, meaning pleasant and happy childhood
21- 02 – 1937
Thereafter Sun’s period for 6 years indicates tapa-period; spiritual and political activity of intense nature.
21 - 02 - 1947
Thereafter Moon Period for 10 years indicating clear headedness and deep contemplation of mass enlightenment.
21 - 02 - 1953
Then Mars period of 7 years indicating traveling and lot of changes.
21 - 02 - 1960
Then Rahu’s period of 18 years Rahu is a Divine planet giver of intricate knowledge of Brahma. Inner soul searching, search for en masse awakening.
21 – 02 - 1978
Then Jupiter’s period of 16 years spreading of Sahaja Yoga – the Guru Principle throughout the world.
21 - 02 - 1994
Thereafter Saturn will govern for 19 years when it will spread Sahaja Yoga in the
Whole world. Saturn means the masses, the Virata and Shri Mataji will witness Kalki
(Mercury) Power manifesting over the whole World.
21 – 02 - 2013
According to the birth horoscope and Sahaja Horoscope of 5-5-1970 Jupiter passed through Libra. Jupiter will again pass through Libra in 1993 and Sahaja Yoga will blossom in the entire world.
Shri Mataji is born with Rahu Nakshatra in Ascendant – Mercury (Gemini) and Moon in Bharanj (Venus) Nakshatra, clearly indicates that Rahu means Films, TV, Radio, (that is either principle) and Venus means Music, file personalities, artists can help. Mercury is the ruling planet of the present day politics (Sahaja can enter through present political system).
In the early Indian Politics at the time of Jawahar Lal Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi, the ruling planet was Venus. Thereafter the ruling planet of Indian politics has been Mercury as all the important events took place on Wednesday. It may be noted here that Shri Mataji has both Venus and Mercury as Her ruling planets. Thus She has full sway over the past and future of Indian Politics.
1. Three planets, Saturn, Sun, Moon are ucch abhilashi – Exaltation
2. Saturn, Jupiter are retrograde (Vakri) – Double strength
Venus is totally free from any malefic aspects giving her the name of Nishklankavtar with
(10-5 deg.) Divine combinations. Just pointing to us who She is.
I bow to the Almighty God Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi who is the
Nishklank Avtar which our Puranas are speaking from centuries.
Lalit Bhandari
Avatar of the Golden Age
"Kalki according to tradition is the tenth avatar or incarnation of Vishnu (Buddha was the ninth avatar of Vishnu).
The symbolic form of Kalki is on a white horse wielding a sword. The Name Kalki literally means "The Annihilator of Ignorance."
His Divine Mission is to close Kaliyuga, the Iron Age (one of 4 Yugas or time zones that mark the spiritual progression of mankind not the technical iron age), and usher in the Golden Age, a new period of peace prosperity and harmony.
The current age Kaliyuga also called the age of darkness and ignorance. It is the most degenerate and fallen of the ages, characterized by a hardening of the spiritual core of mankind, an almost total lack of sacredness, and extreme materialism, as humans can no longer determine what is essential for living in this fallen age and what is irrelevant. The Antaryamin, or Indweller has been put to rest in the heart of mankind. Those of you with a New Age background may think of this Antaryamin as the Higher Self.
An avatar is a being that comes to change the "truth". Edison was an avatar of science. The Beatles were avatars of music. A Celestial Avatar has a definate Divine purpose. One can see how the Christ changed the "truth" just in the first 2 words of the Lord's Prayer: "Our Father".
In the Golden Age, in a gesture of Supreme Friendship, this Antaryamin, through an externally stimulated action awakens the heart. Many have already been having such Profound Divine Mystical Experience. This experience, this personal encounter with Divinity in one form or another (Moses and the Thorn Bush is a well known example of such experience) is the one common denominator in the lives of all Saints, Sages, Mystics, and Prophets.
It is so important to the evolution of the consciousness of mankind, for it is belief (ignorance and speculation) that separates, while discovery unites. Just see for a moment the sufferings of the saints and discoverers throughout time. How the nature of belief (ignorance) is to destroy anything that will shed a light on it for what it truly is.
Kalki's Divine Mission is to close Kaliyuga, the current age of darkness and ignorance and usher in the Golden Age, a new ten thousand year cycle of peace, prosperity and harmony. He is to liberate all of mankind from suffering and to bring enlightenment to all of mankind.
This picture will be very meaningful to those of you in touch with the dawn of the Golden Age which is a shift in consciousness as well as an astrological occurrence. The advent of the Kalki Avatar is a necessary component in this phenomena.
It is also interesting to note that in Siberia, there is a culture that closely mirrors that of Tibet. There is a ceremony where a statue of a horse is pulled through the streets. It is said that when harmony returns to mankind, Buddha will return riding the horse.
The question is this: Will Buddha or the Christ return when harmony has returned to mankind? If so how can will this harmony happen? Previous interventions from the Kingdom of Heaven can be likened to putting a lump of fine gold in a glass of water. The gold remains gold, and the water remains water. The next incarnation, which is called the Sampoorna (total-meaning the incarnation of God or Supreme Consciousness on this planet) Avatar can be likened to putting a drop of yogurt in into a glass of warm milk. Soon all of the milk will be transformed into yogurt.
Man cannot transform himself. He can become highly reformed however, in his practicing of concepts such as love, kindness, honesty, etc. But true transformation is a result of Mystical Experience. You might say that transformation is a benediction.
Another look into the lives of the saints, prophets and mystics would reveal all.
We are now in the throws of a mighty spiritual awakening, unprecedented in the history of human kind. People from all walks of life are walking and talking with God in a tangible form. Their hearts have truly flowered, and for them, Heaven has met Earth. They have entered the Golden Age which is a state of consciousness as well as an astrological event.
Other would say that this is not possible. That the old calendars say that the Golden Age won't "be here" for thousands of years. Currently there is heated debate in India as some experts have claimed to have found errors in the ancient calendars. This puts the date of the Golden Age very close to the end of the Mayan calendar."

I must ask the question - the Kalki avataar
Dear Jagbir,
It is my understanding that the power of Shri Kalki is coming from
Shri Mataji, but it is manifesting through all Sahaja Yogis. In
other words, it is manifesting through many, many individuals at
this Time of the Last Judgment and Resurrection in order to usher
in the New Age. i have actually heard Shri Mataji say that it is
Shri Kalki that is manifesting through all of us, so perhaps Shri
Kalki is a collective manifestation.
Have you ever heard this too, Jagbir?
Violet
Dear Violet,
You must know of a most important aspect of the Kalki prophecy, the
promised incarnation of the Man on the White Horse. It is about the
location of the village Shambala in India. No one seems to know
where it is, if indeed it exists at all in the frist place.
Thus if you understand that this village is non-existant then Shri
Mataji's interpretation points Kalki's eventual manifestation
through human consciousness. Thus it is more in according with the
Book of Revelation. Having said that, i wish to say that both
Christian and Vedic holy texts are in agreement over the more
important facts of the prophecy and the events leading to His
Coming. After understanding Shri Mataji's interpretation you will
realize both are in collective agreement, with one complimenting the
other and vice versa.
According to G. de Purucker "The 'second coming' of Christ -- not of
Jesus but of the Christ-spirit -- alludes to the universally held
belief that Adi-buddha or the Christos, the Logos, manifests itself
from time to time in the world. In other words, the 'second coming'
is simply a new manifestation of the Logos, the Christos. As Krishna
says in the Bhagavad-Gita:
Whenever, O descendant of Bharata, a decline of duty comes into
being -- a springing up of unrighteousness -- then, indeed, I
emanate myself.
For the preservation of the righteous, for the destruction of the
evil-doers, for the sake of establishing Duty, I take birth from age
to age. -- Chapter iv, slokas 7-8
Here we have Krishna, the type-avatara of Hindustan, implying that
he comes at different times into the manifested world as an avataric
energy at the beginnings of descending or materializing cycles in
human experience. He spoke in his divine capacity as being one of
the gods who inspirit and invigorate our universe. It is obvious
from the reach of this teaching that many gods can and do have
avataric manifestations. The one who was in Krishna as the divine
essence may have manifested as an avatara many times before, and
inevitably will manifest again; and the same divinity which worked
through Jesus must have sent a divine ray into other human beings in
the past, i.e. into other avataric entities, and will do so again.
In a way every human being's own inner god, who is a spark of the
cosmic spirit, could say the same words as those ascribed to
Krishna. For the average man today, buffeted as he is by the winds
of destiny because he has no spiritual holding-power, it would be a
manifestation resembling that of an avatara if his inner divinity --
the heart of his reincarnating ego -- were to express itself more or
less continuously through his consciousness, and therefore through
his physical brain. …
One of the oldest mythologic Hindu legends tells how Vishnu plunges
into the 'waters' in the form of a boar and holds up the earth on
his tusks. The story is found in some of the literary works of the
Vedic cycle as well as in the Mahabharata and the Puranas. In its
earliest forms, the avataras of a deity are ascribed to Prajapati,
the father of mankind and of the beasts, the vegetation and all the
mineral world; in other words, to Brahma. Later forms of the story
as given in the Puranas attribute ten avataras to Vishnu, the
Sustainer. These range from the fish-avatara, through the tortoise,
the boar, the man-lion, the dwarf, and so forth to Krishna, the
eighth incarnation, and on up to and including the tenth, called the
Kalki-avatara. Each succeeding avatara in the world order is in a
higher grade of beings than the preceding one. The Kalki-avatara has
not yet appeared, and this incarnation represents what the Occident
popularly speaks of as 'the coming of the Messiah' -- when all
wrongs shall be righted, and when righteousness and justice shall be
firmly established on earth. (end)
According to Stephen Knapp's Kalki: The Next Avatar of God and the
End of Kali-yuga, "at the conjunction of two yugas [Kali-yuga and
Satya-yuga], the Lord of the creation will take His birth as the
Kalki incarnation and become the son of Vishnuyasha. At this time
the rulers of the earth will have degenerated into plunderers."
(Bhag.1.3.25)
"Lord Kalki will appear in the home of the most eminent brahmana of
Shambhala village, the great soul Vishnuyasha." (Bhag.12.2.18)
"At the end of Kali-yuga, when there exist no topics on the subject
of God, even at the residences of so-called saints and respectable
gentlemen of the three higher castes, and when the power of
government is transferred to the hands of ministers elected from the
lowborn shudra class or those less than them, and when nothing is
known of the techniques of sacrifice, even by word, at that time the
Lord will appear as the supreme chastiser." (Bhag.2.7.38)
The Vishnu Purana (Book Four, Chapter 24) also explains that, "When
the practices taught in the Vedas and institutes of law have nearly
ceased, and the close of the Kali age shall be nigh, a portion of
that divine being who exists of His own spiritual nature, and who is
the beginning and end, and who comprehends all things, shall descend
upon earth. He will be born in the family of Vishnuyasha, an eminent
brahmana of Shambhala village, as Kalki, endowed with eight
superhuman faculties."
The Padma Purana (6.71.279-282) relates that Lord Kalki will end the
age of Kali and will kill all the wicked mlecchas and, thus, destroy
the bad condition of the world. He will gather all of the
distinguished brahmanas and will propound the highest truth. He will
know all the ways of life that have perished and will remove the
prolonged hunger of the genuine brahmanas and the pious. He will be
the only ruler of the world that cannot be controlled, and will be
the banner of victory and adorable to the world.
Here in these verses we find that Lord Kalki will come as a
chastiser or warrior. By this time the planet will be filled with
people who will be unable to understand logical conversations. They
will be too slow-minded and dull-witted, not capable of being taught
much, especially in the way of high philosophy regarding the purpose
of life. They will not know what they need to do or how to live. And
they certainly will be unable to change their ways. Therefore, Lord
Kalki does not come to teach, but simply to chastise, punish, and
cleanse the planet.
Furthermore, we also find the name of the place where Lord Kalki
will appear and the name of the family in which He will be born. The
family will be qualified brahmanas. This means that a disciplic and
family line of spiritually qualified brahmanas will remain on the
planet throughout the age of Kali, no matter how bad things get.
Though they may be hidden, living in a small village somewhere, it
will be this line of bhaktas, spiritual devotees, from which Lord
Kalki will appear in the distant future. No one knows where this
village of Shambala is located. Some feel that it is yet to
manifest, or that it will be a hidden underground community from
which Lord Kalki will appear." (end)
This is what Shri Mataji has to say:
"The word Kalki is actually an abbreviation of the word Niskalankh.
Niskalankh means the same as My name is, which means Nirmala. That
it is spotlessly clean. Something that is spotlessly clean is
Niskalankh — without any spot marks.
Now this Incarnation has been described in many Puranas as will be
coming on this Earth on a white horse in a village of Sambhalpur.
They call it Sambhalpur. It is very interesting how people take
everything so literally. The word Sambhalpur means bhal is the
forehead; sambhal means at that state; that means Kalki is situated
at your bhal. Bhal is the forehead and here He is going to be born.
That is the real meaning of the word Sambhalpur.
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."
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi
Kundalini And Kalki Shakti, Bombay, India — September 28, 1979
Violet, Shri Mataji makes it clear that Shri Kalki is going to be
born from the collective Sahasraras of all who are taking part in
the Last Judgment. He will manifest through collective consciousness
and not take physical birth. Thus no human can ever claim to be the
Kalki Avatar because He will have no biological father or mother.
It is the collective consciousness of millions of conscientious and
dharmic souls calling forth for Divine help that will bring forth
His incarnation. The worst is yet to come for humanity in future and
that will trigger the consciousness necessary for His birth. Shri
Kalki will manifest from the collective consciousness of those
surrendering to the Divine Message of God Almighty – The Good News
of the Last Judgment and Resurrection for humanity.)
Another obvious reason that Shri Mataji's interpretation is correct
is because there is no such village by the name "Shambala" in the
whole of India, or elsewhere in the world. Shambala just does not
exist as a physical location. So no scholar can interpret it
logically and claim Kalki will be taking birth there.
Stephen Knapp continues his Kalki: The Next Avatar of God and the
End of Kali-yuga:
THE ACTIVITIES OF LORD KALKI
The Srimad-Bhagavatam (12.2.19-20) describes Lord Kalki's activities
as follows: "Lord Kalki, the Lord of the universe, will mount His
swift white horse Devadatta and, sword in hand, travel over the
earth exhibiting His eight mystic opulences and eight special
qualities of Godhead. Displaying His unequaled effulgence and riding
with great speed, He will kill by the millions those thieves who
have dared dress as kings." …
IS LORD KALKI PREDICTED IN THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS?
Here are some additional interesting points to consider. There are
verses from the book of Revelations in the Bible that are very
similar to the above descriptions in the Puranas about Lord Kalki.
These verses are so similar that they cannot be ignored and may
provide additional insight for Christians and similarities they may
share with Vedic culture. In Revelations (19.11-16, & 19-21) it
states:
"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat
upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth
judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his
head were many crowns; and he had a name written, but no man knew
but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood:
and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in
heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white
and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he
should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron:
and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of
Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name
written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. And I saw the beast, and
the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make
war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the
beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought
miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received
the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These
both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And
the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat on the horse."
This sounds so much like the incarnation of Lord Kalki that it could
hardly be anyone else. Surely, by the time Lord Kalki appears, no
one will have the slightest expectation of Him or His appearance. No
one will know His name. And His army of brahmanas will be as pure as
if they had descended from heaven. At the time of Lord Kalki's
appearance, He will kill the remaining miscreants and deliver the
few saintly people from the present conditions of the earth,
changing it back to the Golden Age of Satya-yuga. In this regard,
Revelations (14.1-3) also describes:
"And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb [a typical symbol for the Divine or
an incarnation of the Divine] stood on the mount Sion, and with him
an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written
in their foreheads. And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of
many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the
voice of harpers harping with their harps; And they sung as it were
a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the
elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty
and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth." …
So herein could be an indication that when the last of society is
delivered from the earth during the end times, they will be those
who wear the name of God on their foreheads, at least according to
these verses. Also, as in accord with other Vedic prophecies, we can
understand that there will be very few people left in the world who
will have any piety at all. (end)
The biblical warning that "during the end times, they will be those
who wear the name of God on their foreheads" carries the same Vedic
message that it "is the collective consciousness of millions of
conscientious and dharmic souls calling forth for Divine help that
will bring forth His incarnation." Only those taking part in the
Last Judgment can understand that the holy scriptures of
Christianity and Hinduism (and Islam) are warning humanity of
impending doom, pleading with them to wear the name of God on their
foreheads i.e., meditate on the Divine in their Sahasraras (Kingdom
of God) within.
The worst is yet to come for humanity. In future the unbearable
degeneration of society will trigger the consciousness necessary for
His birth. Shri Kalki will manifest from the collective
consciousness of those surrendering to the Divine Message – the Last
Judgment and Resurrection for humanity. Thus we can say that Satya
Yuga is also about to break its faintest of Light and penetrate the
darkest hour of Kali Yuga. Those who follow the Divine Message will
experience Satya Yuga while the majority will sink deeper into the
worst of Kali Yuga. It is the future decadence of humanity that will
profoundly disturb and repulse the conscience of those taking part
in the Last Judgment and Resurrection. It is the consciousness of
these souls that will manifest and eventually bring forth His birth.
Every incarnation bears a special message. The central message of
the Adi Shakti's incarnation is the warning to humanity to prepare
and escape the Second Coming. Those souls surrendering to the Great
Event and Good News of the Divine Message are conscious that Shri
Kalki will eventually appear. They know that "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." They are the ones who, by their sustained consciousness
of His destroying Incarnation, will eventually bring forth Kalki.
This last incarnation of Shri Vishnu is already manifesting in our
Sahasraras, the Kingdom of God within.
So Violet it is all true. Shri Mataji did say that "it is Shri Kalki
that is manifesting through all of us" and that "Shri Kalki is a
collective manifestation." Thanks for asking a most important
collective prophecy that is promised by the holy scriptures of
Christianity, Hinduism and Islam to eventually manifest. i am sure
many seekers in future will benefit immensely from its harmonious
synthesis of the major religions and help break the barriers that
divide the religious masses. i really feel good as i too found
knowledge that was non-existent before.
Jai Shri Mataji,

"BONN — A German restaurant has been attacked as “tasteless” for serving sushi on naked models lying on top of tables.
Brigitte Vollmer-Schubert, ombudsman for woman’s issues in the city of Hanover, said she was appalled that the restaurant used naked women as huge “platters” for the Japanese dish, dubbed “sushi ala Jungfrau (virgin).”
But the restaurant owner was quoted by Bild newspaper as saying the dish had been a huge hit and the evening-long meal, costing up to $250 U.S. per person, was booked out for weeks in advance.
The models, usually students in their 20s, wear nothing but see-through veils over their heads and a thin floral decoration between their legs. They are required to lay motionless on the table in the extra-warm room.
The sushi is spread out over their bodies. Bodyguards dressed as samurai warriors make sure nothing gets out of hand.
“They aren’t entirely naked,’ wrote Bild. “Caviar is stuffed into their belly buttons, sword fish sushi is stuck near their armpits and between their legs is raw tuna fish sushi awaiting the hungry guests.”
“It’s a great way to earn some pocket money,” a model named Kim told the newspaper, saying she could earn up to $500 a night.”

"As the television panel discussion proceeded on some absurd sexual topic or another, the male host casually reached over and, uninvited, began massaging the breast of a female guest. On another show, viewers could watch women standing over air vents. Whenever anyone’s skirt was blown over the waist, revealing her underwear, the camera zoomed in for a close-up, while the ubiquitous male hosts laughed uproariously. Switch the channel, and there were more crotch shots, this time of mini-skirted young girls sitting revealingly on small tricycles, much to the merriment of hooting spectators. Men, of course.
Such scenes are regular fare on late-night television in Japan, filled with strange, low-IQ panel and games shows devoted entirely to sex.
But the sex on Japanese TV is not healthy interaction between consenting adults. Rather, it more closely resembles something akin to a sophomoric male wet dream gone wild — such as leering looks at women’s panties, women squeezing tubes of ketchup in their cleavages and female contestants asked to strip to their underwear for failing to hit a target...
“Dignity and civility. These words are disappearing,” said Akiko Yamanaka, one of the few women elected to Japan’s national assembly, the Diet. “I feel a kind of shame when I see these programs on TV. Almost all the stations do the same thing. It’s embarrassing.”...
This is a country where uniformed Japanese schoolgirls find a ready market in middle-aged males willing to shower them with yen for a bit of their “time.” . . .
Men in Tokyo think nothing of openly flipping through pornographic comic books while riding the subway, “Nipple candies” shaped like female breasts are sold over the counter and vending machines can be found dispensing panties used by teenagers.”
The Globe and Mail, February 9, 1998
"The Last Judgment will come when Christ returns in Glory. Only the Father knows the day and the hour; only he determines the moment of its coming. Then through his Son Jesus Christ he will pronounce the final word on all history. We shall know the ultimate meaning of the whole work of creation and of the entire economy of salvation and understand the marvelous ways by which his Providence led everything towards its final end. The Last Judgment will reveal that God’s justice triumphs over all the injustices committed by his creatures and that God’s love is stronger than death. (626)
The message of the Last Judgment calls men to conversion while God is still giving them “the acceptable time,... the day of salvation.” (627) It inspires a holy fear of God and commits them to the justice of the Kingdom of God."
(626. Cf. Song 8:6; 627. 2 Cor 6:2.)

"apocalypticism: eschatological (end-time) views and movements that focus on cryptic revelations about a sudden, dramatic, and cataclysmic intervention of God in history; the judgment of all men; the salvation of the faithful elect; and the eventual rule of the elect with God in a renewed heaven and earth. Arising in Zoroastrianism, an Iranian religion founded by the 6th-century-BC prophet Zoroaster, apocalypticism as developed more fully in Judaic, Christian, and Islamic eschatological speculation and movements."
