"Unique Magazine of Maha Yoga that crowns all the religions and seekings of Yoga by actualizing the Experience of Yoga-THE UNION" Editorial Moksha is commonly understood, as liberation from the cycle of birth and death. Attainment of this state is the cherished objective of every spiritual seeker. Even those who never think of their Spirit and feel contented by superficial worshipping and morti- fication keep the desire of achieving so called Moksha. However no one knows whether such a state really exists and if exists when it is granted. Idea of Moksha presupposes binding, for, Lunless one is bound, one cannot be freed andthat binding is limitations of one's awareness. Every individual being has its separate existence on account of 'I' consciousness which is the real experience of life. Impressions of past experiences and unsatisfied desires are associated with 'I' cons- ciousness. According to Patanjali's aforisms on Yoga, even the fulfilled desires leave behind subtle impressions of the experiences, which become the cause of further desires. Add to it new desires and impressions accumulated every day and reactions to external impulses. Even the desire for so called Moksha would strengthen the attachment to life. Shri Jnaneshwar in his following verse has described a liberated Yogi :- आकाश है माझे मस्तक बापा चिद्ूपा नाद उठती आधारा पासोनी सहस्र दलावरली, नि:शब्द निरंतर नाडी एक ज्ञानदेव म्हणे ऐसा अनुभव जेथ तोचि एक योगी जीवन मुक्त Transcription Ākash he māze mastaka bapä, chidroopă nād uthati Ādhārā pāsoni sahastra dalāvarali, nishabda nirantar nādi eka Jnānadeva mhane aisă anubhava jeth tochi eka Yogi jeevan mukta. Translation Only that Yogi is liberated from life (Jeevan Mukta) who experiences that his head L.e. attention is the sky (Brahmarandhra) where sounds arise and there is endless and soundless channel (Nadi) from Muladhar to Sahasrar. Nirmala Yoga However despite this clear advice people are still clinging to their old belief. Moksha or Jeevan Mukti or liberation is possible only in Sahaja Yoga, it is not the deliverance as commonly believed. It is totally severing the connections with past and future. When Kundalini is in Sahasrar and deflates ego and superego, links with past are dis- rupted and future becomes non-existent, as 'l' consciousness fades away in thoughtless awareness. With that go away other attachments arising out of individuality. Our beloved mother has freed us from our past Karmas, with our full knowledge and understanding. We are the most fortunate of all human beings. We have risen above the limitations of time and place. We are deathless because we have transcended above the physical, psychic and vital beings. We are truly liberated. We are proud children of the Supreme Goddess, Param Parameshwari, Adi Shakti, Moksha Pradayini. A Prayer O Mother, You see me, son of Your life-birth- staggering and tottering, learning to stand up. You hold your helping hands back, letting me fall a few times, so that from a baby toddler, I may grow to be a man at one with the Holy Spirit. Spreading God's truth amongst all the peoples of the world, so that they may know that which they are. I see Your Motherly concern and, behind that, the strength which Our Father gives You, His Consort, so freely. Yet you know that we have to play the drama and grow up in our world- to reflect purely that glorious globe of truth, in the mirrors of our soul. May we learn only to cleanse, nourish and love our Souls, O Mother, may You know fully our eternal gratitude and awe-full respect, and may all the beauty of this world be redeemed.

Your Mother Nirmala Nirmala Yoga This is the most important time because Sahaja Yoga is the last judgement. 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 SHRI KALKI ***** get through your realisation & that the whole story of the last judgement looks such as horrifying experience has been made very beautiful & very tender & delicate and Today I am going to speak in English as does not disturb you. But Ihis is the last decided. Even tomorrow I may have to judgement I tell you, and you all are going to be judged through Sahaja Yoga, whether, speak in foreign language. Today's subject is relationship between you can enter into the kingdom of God or Kundalini & Kalki. The word Kalki is actually not. an abbreviation of the word Nishkalank Now in Sahaja Yoga people come in means the same as my name is which means Nirmala That means it is spotlessly clean. There could be people who have too much Something that is spotlessly clean is of gratait (Tamsivrati) and what you call (Nishkalank) without any spot or marks. with different kinds of attentions or 'chitta'. inerlia or the more sort of sluggishness or slow movement temperament. These when Now, this incarnation has been described In many Puranas and will be coming on this they are exaggerated, people take to addiction earth on a white horse, in a village of Sambhalpur as they call it. interesting how people take everything literally. The word Sambhal means-'Bhal' is Forehead, means at that stage, that means Kalki is situaled on your Bhal Bhal is the they want to win the whole world. And forehead & here he is going to be born that they want to become something independent is the real meaning of the word. For us, in do not want to keep their relationship with between Christ & this destroying incarnation God. You can see in Kaliyuga, how people of Mahavishnu time given to human beings to rectify them- are very much indulging into the too much of selves, for them to enter in the kingdom alcoholism or you can call it something of God, which in the Bible is called as the running away from your awareness or from Last Judgement. That you will be Judged, your self, from truth and beauty. The others all of you will be judged on this earih. The are denying, they are denying everything population of the world is maximum, say, that is beautiful and are ego oriented. So because all those, practically, all those who we have people, who are super-ego oriented, have aspirations to enter into the kingdom very much conditioned, and lethargic and of God are born in the modern times and lazy and absolutely revolting. sor take to alcohol or some such things which lake you away from reality and make you numb. The other side as you know, is right hand side people who have got too much ambitions: That extremely ambitious people, It is very on their own-malignant & cancerous.

Attainment of this state is the cherished objective of every spiritual seeker. Even those who never think of their Spirit and feel contented by superficial worshipping and morti- fication keep the desire of achieving so called Moksha. However no one knows whether such a state really exists and if exists when it is granted. Idea of Moksha presupposes binding, for, Lunless one is bound, one cannot be freed andthat binding is limitations of one's awareness. Every individual being has its separate existence on account of 'I' consciousness which is the real experience of life. Impressions of past experiences and unsatisfied desires are associated with 'I' cons- ciousness. According to Patanjali's aforisms on Yoga, even the fulfilled desires leave behind subtle impressions of the experiences, which become the cause of further desires. Add to it new desires and impressions accumulated every day and reactions to external impulses. Even the desire for so called Moksha would strengthen the attachment to life. Shri Jnaneshwar in his following verse has described a liberated Yogi :- आकाश है माझे मस्तक बापा चिद्ूपा नाद उठती आधारा पासोनी सहस्र दलावरली, नि:शब्द निरंतर नाडी एक ज्ञानदेव म्हणे ऐसा अनुभव जेथ तोचि एक योगी जीवन मुक्त Transcription Ākash he māze mastaka bapä, chidroopă nād uthati Ādhārā pāsoni sahastra dalāvarali, nishabda nirantar nādi eka Jnānadeva mhane aisă anubhava jeth tochi eka Yogi jeevan mukta. Translation Only that Yogi is liberated from life (Jeevan Mukta) who experiences that his head L.e. attention is the sky (Brahmarandhra) where sounds arise and there is endless and soundless channel (Nadi) from Muladhar to Sahasrar. Nirmala Yoga 1982_Nirmala_Yoga_E_(Scan)_VI.pdf-page-2.txt However despite this clear advice people are still clinging to their old belief. Moksha or Jeevan Mukti or liberation is possible only in Sahaja Yoga, it is not the deliverance as commonly believed. It is totally severing the connections with past and future. When Kundalini is in Sahasrar and deflates ego and superego, links with past are dis- rupted and future becomes non-existent, as 'l' consciousness fades away in thoughtless awareness. With that go away other attachments arising out of individuality. Our beloved mother has freed us from our past Karmas, with our full knowledge and understanding. We are the most fortunate of all human beings. We have risen above the limitations of time and place. We are deathless because we have transcended above the physical, psychic and vital beings. We are truly liberated. We are proud children of the Supreme Goddess, Param Parameshwari, Adi Shakti, Moksha Pradayini. A Prayer O Mother, You see me, son of Your life-birth- staggering and tottering, learning to stand up. You hold your helping hands back, letting me fall a few times, so that from a baby toddler, I may grow to be a man at one with the Holy Spirit. Spreading God's truth amongst all the peoples of the world, so that they may know that which they are. I see Your Motherly concern and, behind that, the strength which Our Father gives You, His Consort, so freely. Yet you know that we have to play the drama and grow up in our world- to reflect purely that glorious globe of truth, in the mirrors of our soul. May we learn only to cleanse, nourish and love our Souls, O Mother, may You know fully our eternal gratitude and awe-full respect, and may all the beauty of this world be redeemed.
