The Beauty of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi's Teachings

This is the power of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi's amazing, secular, unifying teachings! A Hindu, a Muslim and a Sikh are pictured above, all sitting quite peacefully side by side, listening to a lecture by His Holiness Younus AlGohar. This is beautiful! The teachings of Lord Ra Riaz encourage all to obtain divine love no matter what religion they do (or don't) follow.

Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi said, 'A Christian thinks he is the best, a Jew thinks he is the best, a Muslim thinks he is the best; however, I say that the best among you all is one who has God's love in his heart despite his indifference to any religion.'

Kalki Avatar Foundation India Celebrates Shri Krishan Janam


The following is a report from our team partaking in the Shri Krishan Janam Bhoomi Festival in Mathura.


Jai Gohar Shahi!

Today, all throughout India, Hindus have been enthusiastically and zealously celebrating the Shri Krishan Janam (the birthday of Lord Krishna). A team from Kalki Avatar Foundation Delhi went to Mathura to give the message of Kalki Avatar Ra Gohar Shahi. 
With the grace of Kalki Avatar Lord Ra Gohar Shahi, people from all walks of life, young and old, having been presented with the images of Kalki Avatar Ra Gohar Shahi on the Moon, Sun and Maha Shiv Lingham, looked with great affection at the image of Bhagwan Kalki Avatar Ra Gohar Shahi. Some, at the moment of being told about Kalki Avatar Ra Gohar Shahi, began to pray to Him. Those in search of spirituality also gratefully took simran of 'Ra Raam' from the image of Kalki Avatar.
Some asked in astonishment, 'The reincarnation of Kalki is here?' while some others fervently asked, 'How can we meet Maharaj Kalki Avatar Ra Gohar Shahi?'

#AskYounusAlGohar Question & Answer Session - Part 2

His Holiness Younus AlGohar replies to questions from the public.

12) What is the Esoteric Triangle of Allah, Mohammad and Imam Mehdi?
The Esoteric Triangle of Allah, Mohammad and Imam Mehdi refers to God on top of the triangle with Imam Mehdi connected to his left and Prophet Mohammad to his right. This triangle is in Alam-e-Ahdiyat (Realm of God) and we have named it the Esoteric Triangle of Mehdi. The knowledge of recognising God was granted to Prophet Mohammad and passed down from the Prophet to the Saints of God and through them to the common people. However, only those obtained Spiritual Grace from this knowledge who accepted Mohammad’s prophet-hood and religion. Those who followed any other religion for except Islam were deprived of this particular spiritual grace from Prophet Mohammad.

In spirituality, the Moon symbolises prophets, stars symbolise their companions and the Sun symbolises God.
According to Prophetic Tradition, 'In the End Times, the Sun shall rise from the West.'

The Muslim scholars thought this referred to the physical Sun; however, this refers to the Esoteric Sun and Imam Mehdi. On the left-side of God (West), is Imam Mehdi and on the right-side of God (East) is Prophet Mohammad. Those who obtained spiritual grace from God’s east entered into close proximity of God and those who shall obtain spiritual grace from Imam Mehdi shall enter into close proximity of God also.
The Quran says:
رَبُّ الْمَشْرِقَيْنِ وَرَبُّ الْمَغْرِبَيْنِ
[55:17]
He is the Lord of the East (Mashriq) and the Lord of the West (Maghreb).

Mehdi is from the West (Maghreb) of God and He is neither a saint nor a prophet. There are no conditions for obtaining spiritual grace from Imam Mehdi. Hindu, Sikh, Christian, Jews or one from any religion or sect may reach God through Imam Mehdi.

In the Realm of God (Ahdiyat), God has kept some of his reflections known as Tifle Noorie (auxiliary souls of God). The first reflection of God, Aks-e-Ilahi, belongs to Imam Mehdi and one of the Tifle Noorie belongs to Prophet Mohammad.

In his book, Sultan Haq Bahu said, 'One day God thought to see himself, how does he look.' When we want to see ourselves, we look in the mirror. But God does not see himself in a glass mirror, God manifested his being through his attributes. Through this manifestation, a reflection came out and stood in front of God, upon which God fell madly in love.

According to Muslim saints, upon seeing the reflection, God moved in ecstasy seven times; but according to Hindu saints, he danced out of love. This is simply a play on words; moving in ecstasy and dancing essentially is the same thing. Elaborating further, Hindu saints say that not only did God dance, but he sang also upon seeing his reflection and the seven musical notes were created. Muslim saints say that seven colours (of the rainbow) were created and those seven colours are the colours of the seven subtleties (Lataif) within a human being. The seven days of the week were also created and the seven continents of the world.

According to some Muslims, music is forbidden in the religion. Because they are narrow-minded, if they are told that God sang upon seeing his reflection, they would say, 'You are placing an allegation upon God'. But this is not the case with God. God gave Prophet David a melodious voice. When he would sing in praise of God, even the birds and animals would become ecstatic. If music was prohibited (haraam), then David would not have been granted a melodious voice.

Singing and playing music is not prohibited provided you are not doing it out of carnal desires. Anything done for the sake of carnal desires is prohibited, be it music or something else. Is the Quran not recited in a melodious manner? According to some people, poetry is prohibited. But is the Quran not poetry? The people of Arab, in the era in which the Quran was revealed, were good poets. Therefore, God presented the Quran in such a poetic manner that even those poets were left in awe. Is Surah Ikhlaas not poetry?
Music is the diet of the botanical soul and HDE Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi has given the real explanation of this in His book, ‘The Religion of God (Deen-e-Ilahi)’. An experiment was carried out in America to see the effect of music on crops. Some crops were kept in a musical environment while others were not; the growth of crops in the musical environment was relatively better. 

Some people have such a melodious voice that when they sing, it touches the heart and may bring tears to the eyes. When Prophet David would sing, even the animals and birds become ecstatic. What would have happened when God sang? How melodious would the divine melody be!

God granted Moses the ability to speak with him. God granted Prophet Mohammad the ability to witness his divine splendour, whereas God facilitated Imam Mehdi with the essence and presence of Divine Beauty. 

Singing and dancing are divine. We know the secret that no one else knows because it has been revealed to us by HDE Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi. We know that God moved in ecstasy seven times out of love, upon seeing his reflection. Every time he moved in ecstasy, he called upon the reflection with a special name, a special name that was greater than ‘Allah Hu’. While God moved in ecstasy he whispered some holy phrases and the first phrase he whispered was ‘ALRA’. This is the first phrase that he whispered involuntarily upon seeing his initial reflection.  If you recite ‘Allah, Allah’ it will only take you to God. However you will not be able to reach the ultimate state of immense pleasure and ecstasy that God felt in that moment through the word ‘Allah’. The state of ecstasy that God was engulfed in could not be reached with the help of God’s name. The first name was ‘RA’ and then veils were placed upon this name with ‘Alif’ and ‘Laam’, thus ‘ALRA’. This ‘Alif’ and ‘Laam’ are all shells/veils upon the original name ‘RA’, so that it remains protected.
When God whispered seven times, seven holy phrases emerged. And the first of the seven holy phrases was ‘RA’.

When we do physical exercise, our body temperature rises. To cool down the temperature, our body naturally perspires. Similarly, when God moved in ecstasy, sparks of his Divine Light emanated from his body. Those sparks of Divine Light formed a Tifle Noorie. Each time he moved, one Tifle Noorie came into existence. He moved in ecstasy seven times, thus seven auxiliary spirits of God (Tifle Noorie) came into existence. It was the initial reflection of God that God fell in love with and because of which he moved in ecstasy. The seven Tifle Noorie are the result of seeing his reflection and his emotions of immense pleasure and ecstasy. Those seven Tifle Noorie were given to the Sultan ul Fuqra including Prophet Mohammad, whereas the initial reflection of God was granted to Imam Mehdi.

Now, in the Esoteric Triangle, the Sultan ul Fuqra are connected to God through Prophet Mohammad on the right side, while Imam Mehdi, with the initial reflection of God, is connected directly to God on the left side.  On one side, the spiritual grace was granted through prophet-hood to reach the paradise.
And on the other side, God facilitated Imam Mehdi with his divine splendour directly and then opened the door to all who wished to obtain it. Those who wish to obtain God’s divine splendour must submit to the feet of HDE Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi! That is the only condition.

13) What is the Exoteric Person (Zahir) and Esoteric Person (Batin) of God?
God’s Esoteric Person is in Alam-e-Ahdiyat (Realm of God). God has not come down on earth, so where then is his Exoteric Person? You live in your homes, but when you travel to another city or country, you stay at a guesthouse or in a hotel and it becomes you temporary abode. In a similar way, God’s Esoteric Person is always present, however, sometimes we see his Exoteric Person and His Divine Eminence Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi has given us the method to do so. God’s Exoteric Person can come to you also. For this, God has placed one of his Makhlooq (creation) in your head called the Latifa-e-Ana (Subtlety of Ana), which belongs to Alam-e-Ahdiyat, the place where God and his Esoteric Person reside.

You must enlighten all seven subtleties. After this, you must obtain the knowledge of seeing God from a spiritual guide. Then, the spiritual guide must take your Ana to Maqam-e-Mahmoud (Station of Praise and Glory/Prophet Mohammad) and face to face with God. The image of God then transfers to your Latifa-e-Ana; from there it comes into the eyes and then onto the heart. God then instructs his image on your heart to go down on Earth. This is how God’s Exoteric Person can be seen.

The angels cannot see God; they are only able to hear the voice of God. When they find out that God has placed his image on somebody’s heart, then that person may be sleeping on earth and millions of angels line up from the skies to the earth to see that person. When God’s image settles on a person’s heart, such a person is called the Exoteric Person of God.

God’s Exoteric Person has appeared in saints (such as Guru Nanak, Sai Baba and Abdul Qadir Jillani).
When these spiritual dignitaries were present, in that era, God’s Exoteric Person was present also. In the era when such spiritual dignitaries were not present, God’s Exoteric Person could not be seen.

14) When God said, ‘I was in the hidden treasure,’ what was this hidden treasure and who is the owner of this hidden treasure?

A treasure does not consist of just one diamond or pearl. There are many diamonds and valuables that make up a treasure. When God said, ‘I was inside the hidden treasure,’ he was not alone, there were 3.5 million God-like figures in the hidden treasure (Unseen World) also. They were of the same calibre as God.

Today, Muslims say there is no creator (Ilah) for except God, but they do not try to understand how God became a creator. In order to create in this world, a man needs a woman; and in order for God to create, he needs the power of Command 'Be' (Amar-e-Kun). The owner of Alam-e-Ghaib granted God the power of Command 'Be'. If He granted this power to one, then he could have granted this power to as many as he wishes. Now, if He grants this power to 3-4 God-like figures, then there would be 3-4 creators. And they would be creators because of the power granted to them by the owner of the hidden treasure. Being a creator is not significant; the power which enabled him to become a creator is significant.

When people asked Prophet Mohammad about the reality of the soul, God said in the Quran, ‘O’ Mohammad tell them the soul is the Command of God.’ The soul is created from the power of Command 'Be' that God possesses and the power of Command 'Be' was granted to God by the Grand God (Rab al Arbab). All the souls were created from this power, therefore, should the souls not return to their original source?

The Quran says:
لَوْ كَانَ فِيهِمَا آلِهَةٌ إِلَّا اللَّهُ لَفَسَدَتَا
[21:22]
God said, ‘Had there been more than one creator (Ilah) there would be great mischief’.

It is understandable that if there are two wives in one house, there would be great mischief. But God said, ‘There is no creator for except me (La Ilaha Ilallah)’. When there is no other creator, where did this idea of two or more creators come from? And if there were more than one creators, who would create the mischief? This means that God knows there are more creators. When he came out from the hidden treasure, others must have come out also. They too must have been given power to create and they too must have created their own Makhlooq (creation). They were all kept separately. God is saying that if another creator came here, there would be mischief; so something of this nature must have occurred, hence God mentioned it in the Quran.

Jesus came to this world in the guise of a prophet, however, he is among the 3.5 million God-like figures from the Unseen World. God himself did not come down on earth; in order to come down he would have to come in a guise also. When Jesus came in the guise of a prophet, he had a slip of the tongue and revealed some secrets because of which his nation began to call him God. God did not approve of this.

In the Quran, God said to Jesus, ‘O’ Jesus, have you told your nation that you are God? I shall send my wrath upon them.’ The Quran also reveals that Jesus would reply, ‘O’ God, why would I say something which I do not have the right to say?’ Pay careful attention to the words. Had this been wrong, Jesus would have clearly said, ‘No I did not say such a thing’, but instead he said, ‘Why would I say something which I do not have the right to say? I was lifted up, you are their witness this is your Makhlooq (creation). If you are upset with them, send your wrath. I am not their witness.’ This was the mischief-like scenario that occurred.
Those who wish to reach this hidden treasure, we have the knowledge to do so. If someone has the ability to take you there, you can understand what spiritual power and authority they might have.

15) What is Ilm-e-Ladduni?
Ilm-e-Ladduni is the knowledge of recognising God and reaching the Essence of God. This knowledge is not a part of the holy scriptures. This is the knowledge that God grants from his special treasure. The knowledge we are dispensing is Ilm-e-Ladduni.

16) What is the process of pledging allegiance to Imam Mehdi? I understand that until I pledge allegiance at the hands of a spiritual guide, he is not responsible for me. If I pledge allegiance to Imam Mehdi, will He take my responsibility? 
It is true that without pledging allegiance (Bayt) at the hands of a spiritual guide (Murshid), people were unable to obtain spiritual grace. This has been the case so far in this world. Once you pledge allegiance at the hands of the spiritual guide, you must do as the spiritual guide instructs you to do; and in return, the spiritual guide takes you to your destination. This had been the spiritual system: after Bayt, the spiritual guide has all rights on you. Wthout this process, no spiritual guide had rendered spiritual grace. However, there are many types of Bayt. There is the Bayt of the physical body in which the body obtains spiritual grace. Then, there is the Bayt of the Soul and the Bayt of the Qalb (Spiritual Heart). In the Bayt of the heart, your heart pledges allegiance to the heart of Imam Mehdi.

Because Imam Mehdi is for all, He does not want to touch upon anybody’s religion. Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism and Sikhism are all religions of the body. The Bayt of Imam Mehdi is for the heart; Imam Mehdi has all rights over your heart.

It doesn’t matter whether your body is Hindu, Sikh, Muslim or Christian. First the heart must pledge allegiance; only then the name of God will begin to echo in your heart.

HDE Gohar Shahi says, 'Obtain Dhikr from us and if "Allah Allah" begins in your heart, we shall protect you from all evil and support you until God settle in your heart. If you call upon us for help we shall come immediately.'  

Nobody has taken such a great responsibility. HDE Imam Mehdi’s generosity is such that there are no shackles and Imam Mehdi Himself has the responsibility of supporting you until God enters your heart.

If you want to reach God, your heart must pledge allegiance to Imam Mehdi.

Those whose bodies pledge allegiances at the hands of a spiritual guide are not as loyal as those whose hearts have pledged allegiance. The Bayt of the body is like divorce; it can be broken and performed again to somebody else. But if the heart has become Bayt, then this Bayt is unbreakable in this world and in the hereafter. Even on the Day of Judgment, your heart will be connected to Imam Mehdi and you will not face accountability. On the other hand, the bodies will remain here as will their Bayt.

The Quran says, 'On that day [Day of Judgment], nothing shall benefit you; not your wealth or your sons. Successful shall be one who brings forth a Qalb-e-Saleem (Secured Heart).' If a heart which has pledged allegiance to Imam Mehdi is presented before God on that day, what heart could be more successful than such a heart?

HDE Gohar Shahi does not ask of anything from you - and what is it that you possibly have to offer? You only have worldly things to offer. And what is it that you have that the Lord does not? He is the provider, you are the beggar. When the Lord Himself has come in the guise of the spiritual guide then the previous formula no longer applies. Previously those performed Bayt who were human beings and because of the sub-spirit of God in them, they became spiritual guides (Murshid-e-Kamil). They would test individuals and people would serve them in order to reach God. But now the Lord has come Himself and he needs nothing more than loyalty from you.

16) What is the Transfusion of the Soul (Zam)?
The knowledge of the Transfusion of the Soul (Zam) was not previously introduced to this world. The Transfusion of the Soul is when a personality from the ‘hidden treasure’ comes down to earth and upon seeing a person’s loyalty, aspiration and servitude to Him, he decides to perform Zam on the person. He takes one of His personal Aks (reflections) and inserts it into the person’s body. Then, that reflection mixes in with your soul just as the milk, tea and sugar dissolve when you make tea.

After the tea has been made you cannot separate the milk, the tea or the sugar from one another. Similarly, the soul of the person and the reflection of the Lord dissolve in such a manner that you cannot differentiate between the Lord and the man.

Sometimes when he speaks, you shall hear the Lord speak. And sometimes when he speaks, you hear the man speak. At times when people think the Lord is speaking, suddenly the man will begin to speak and when you think the man is speaking, before you can complete this thought, the Lord will be in front of you.

The Quran says that none can enter the Unseen (Ghaib) for except God. Once your soul has been transfused and God has inserted his reflection into your soul, now, that condition has been fulfilled. Your soul is covered with the reflection of God, you appear as God. Now you may enter into the Unseen World. Your soul becomes coloured in the colours of God therefore you appear as God. Then, such people will be taken into the Unseen World and they shall live in close proximity to the Lord.

Through the system of prophet-hood, people would enlighten their hearts and enter the paradise. They would live in the palaces with the damsels. But the people of Zam would not be interested in the damsels or the paradise; they want to live with the Lord.

Such an offer has not come from God. Only Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi has offered humanity the Transfusion of the Soul.

If God wanted to perform Zam, he would have to come down on earth and he has no such intentions. He does not want to come down on earth in the guise of anyone. Therefore, the offer from God is confined to paradise and at the most seeing God. Even after seeing God, one has to live in the paradise. He does not keep anyone with him.

When HDE Gohar Shahi came to this world and people saw the divine splendour of the Lord, they aspired to live with the Lord only.

In order for the Transfusion of the Soul to take place, the Lord has to come down on earth physically so that you may touch him. He may test you; He may test your love, your heart and your soul. When He sees nothing but loyalty to Him in you, when He sees that you cannot live without Him and you have no desires of the paradise or damsels, then he enters His reflection into your soul so that you may live in close proximity to Him. Only Imam Mehdi shall take such people to the Unseen World.

Sri Lankan TV Channel TNL Interviews His Holiness Younus AlGohar



Interview Transcript:
Shanika Weligamage (Presenter): Today we have in Sri Lanka the Universal Representative of Kalki Avatar Foundation, His Holiness Younus AlGohar to discuss about Kalki Avatar Foundation.

Q: Can you tell us, what is Kalki Avatar Foundation?
A: Kalki Avatar Foundation is a spiritual organisation and it is a multi-faith spiritual organisation. We do not represent any particular religion or faith. We talk about spirituality and our message is to all humanity.

Q: That means it links up with spirituality?
A: Spirituality, purely.

Q: If so, can it bring a change in the society and how?
A: I believe it can bring a change in the society and this change will come when, through spirituality, hearts are enlightened, the hearts are filled with love and the elements of hatred and negativity are diminished with the help of spiritual power and enlightenment. It can bring a very positive change in the society.

Q: We get information on enlightenment in Buddhism and other religions in other forms. So Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi also mentions enlightenment. What do you mean by this?
A: Enlightenment and spirituality has been part of every religion and basically all religions were empowered with enlightenment and spirituality. However, with the passage of time, spiritual knowledge became diminished in the religions. And in today’s world, religions are without spirituality and enlightenment. We are just talking about enlightenment.

Q: Can a common person become spiritual and obtain enlightenment?
A: Of course all human beings, if they want to can become enlightened and spiritualised.

Q: What is the heart of meditation?
A: Meditation is about putting God’s name inside the beating system of the heart. And when God’s name is synchronised inside the beating system of the heart, then involuntarily the heart begins to say the name of God.

Q: How do you do it normally?
A: With spiritual power, God’s name is inserted in the beating system of the heart and the heart begins to say -

Q: Is it through meditation?
A: Well, once the heart is initiated, then the secondary sort of thing is meditation. Meditation can only be established once God’s name is synchronised in the beating system of the heart.

Q: Does meditation help in all religions?
A: Well, it should help all religions.

Q: How do you mean that the spirituality helps a person in his daily life? How?
A: We have two positive and negative things in our body: negativity which of course is the cause of all roots. And we have hatred and other negative elements in life; this is because we are not taking care of our positive side in the human beings. That can only be taken care of with the help of spirituality and enlightenment.

Q: Is there a connection to the teachings of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi with religion? If so, what is your religion?
A: Like I said, we do not in particular represent any religion. We preach spirituality and spirituality is the core of all religions.

Q: Then who is Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi?
A: Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi, we believe, is the true representation and presence of God.

Q: How can we say that Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi is the Awaited One Personality?
A: Because there are so many signs which we have seen and on top of that the teachings and spiritual authority, spiritual power and the fact that HH Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi is addressing all humanity without prejudice and benefitting all human beings without the creed, colour, cast or their religious background. We understand this can only be done by the Awaited One.

Q: So is the Kalki Avatar the last Avatar after obtaining enlightenment?
A: Yeah, Kalki Avatar is the last Avatar.

Q: So how can a common person recognise or understand the true Kalki Avatar?
A: A common man is busy with his life and doesn’t have much time to contribute towards recognising such a mighty personality. The only thing that we understand will help a common person is to give them some kind of spiritual benefit that can always show in his day to day life. People are suffering with incurable diseases and people are not happy with their life. Hatred has taken place in the heart.
When a common person feels that the teachings of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi is bringing a positive change and they’re getting cured of the incurable diseases that they have been suffering from (even with a large amount of money they were not able to cure those diseases, and they’re healed by Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi), I hope they will understand that this is not only proving the fact that His Holiness Gohar Shahi is the last Avatar, but also it’s working for them. And they will understand and recognise the time and the presence of His Holiness Gohar Shahi on earth.

Q: Is He is a spiritual Avatar?
A: Both physical and spiritual.

Q: So how can you say Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi is the Kalki Avatar?
A: Because like I said, we have seen so many signs that were foretold.

Q: What kind of special signs?
A: For example, He would be seen riding a white horse; and that is not just physical, it is in the spiritual realm also.
He will diminish hatred from the society; and His teachings are already doing it. In this day and age people have become very intolerant towards each other; one does not want to know anybody else’s religion or their belief system. But the teachings of Kalki Avatar Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi are bringing all humanity into one platform. People are beginning to forget hatred and they’re learning to respect and give space to each other. They’re becoming tolerant.

Q: What mantra do you grant to the Hindus to produce Shakti?
A: Ra Raam.

Q: Do you grant mantras to other people, other than Hindus?
A: Yes.

Q: People are worshipping in temples, churches, mosques, etc. So why is suffering still there?
A: I believe the reason why people are suffering today is because they have distanced themselves from the core teachings of their religions. We believe no religion is bad; all religions are good. But today people are suffering because Christians are not good Christians anymore, Muslims are not good Muslims anymore, Hindus are not good Hindus anymore.
So if they become good in their religion (they learn to respect their own religion and they adopt spirituality), then all religions will become good and we will live in a better society.

Q: People are using the religions for their own benefit and for their own advantage. What do you say about this?
A: That is true. They’re doing it because they’re not enlightened. They’re selling the name of God, they’re selling religions - they’re selling everything. And it’s not just in the religions; you can see it in all fields of life: politicians are doing the same, spiritual people are doing the same, religious people are doing the same, and this is the case in every country.

Q: How can a common person approach Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi?
A: The image of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi has become prominent on the Moon and people can look at the image of Lord Ra Riaz on the Moon. They can obtain spiritual healing and Initiation of the Heart, and they can benefit from it.

Q: What is the role of Kalki Avatar Foundation in Sri Lanka?
A: The role of Kalki Avatar Foundation in Sri Lanka is to help people with the diseases they’re suffering from, to help them understand the meaning of life and how to obtain love, and build up a better society in Sri Lanka where all religions can live with love, peace and tolerance.

Q: It is said that the image of His Holiness Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi on the Moon has become a prominent image. How does it help people get rid of their problems and incurable diseases? How do you heal the people?
A: The image of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi on the Moon, we believe is not just an image, but it is one of His spirits. People need to repeat the name of God three times – whatever religion do they practice and whatever name of God they use to call upon God – and they obtain spiritual healing from the image of Lord Ra Riaz on the Moon.

Q: Can the people suffering from incurable diseases be benefitted by your spiritual services?
A: They already are. There are thousands of cases in Sri Lanka where people got healed and they’re reaping the benefits of Kalki Avatar Foundation’s presence in Sri Lanka. 2- All of our services are free, we’re not selling God’s name.

Q: You never charge any money for these services?
A: No, nothing.

Q: So can Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Muslims, Sikhs, etc. follow Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi? Any community can follow Him equally?
A: Of course, equally.

Q: So how are Sri Lankans responding to the peace and prosperity of the country by adopting spirituality?
A: People are responding really well. They understand that we are here for love, peace, and physical and spiritual prosperity of this country. There are thousands of people who are now becoming a part of Kalki Avatar Foundation in Sri Lanka.

Q: Do you want to give a message to Sri Lankans?
A: My message to my brothers and sisters in Sri Lanka is to live in love and peace and adopt spirituality. Show tolerance to all religions we have in this country. Let live and live well.

Q: How can love and peace prevail in the world?
A: Only by diminishing the negative elements. We have negativity in our body; some call it evil presence and some others call it negativity. We have to enlighten our body and souls. Only with the help of divine light, when it is produced in the heart and starts to mingle in our bloodstream, will we get rid of negativity.

Q: Let’s talk about meditation. What types of methods will you adopt for this service? Can you show us?
A: We believe and understand meditation has to do with the soul and the heart. So before we actually invite people to meditate, we want their souls and the spirit to adopt the light of God’s name. And we have this special spiritual method, with the help of which we insert God’s name in the beating system of the heart. When people begin to hear and feel the vibration of God’s name inside their heart, only then we ask them to establish meditation. And only then does that really practically and spiritual help them.

Q: Do you believe meditation comes from genes or family? If a newcomer was to do meditation, how can he start it? What exercises would he have to do? Would he have to relax his mind?
A: There are so many meditations we see in the world. Some people attribute meditation to yoga practices, however, we understand that meditation is a purely spiritual thing and it has got nothing to do with genes or it doesn’t come from the family. Anybody can reap the benefits of establishing meditation. Meditation is a very spiritual thing; it’s about concentrating on your soul and at the same time focusing on God’s name on your souls. That will then establish meditation.
What actually happens in meditation? When we meditate upon a certain soul, that soul (if it is already spiritualised and enlightened) leaves the body during the meditation. It makes spiritual journey to whichever realm it is connected to. This is how a meditation is established.

Q: How long does it take to come back?
A: Well that depends. If you don’t want to break the meditation, the meditation can go as high as 2 hours, 3 hours, 10 hours, 24 hours.

Q: Are there any stages of meditation that you can achieve?
A: There are many stages of meditation. Some spiritual individuals have established a meditation which lasted for 17-18 days.

Q: So can you explain the stages of meditation?
A: We have seven souls in our body and we can meditate on each soul. So there can be at least five different stages of meditation.

Q: We see today that humanity is divided into groups on the basis of their religions. Why is it so?
A: Because with the passage of time people have modified their religious books and altered the original divine text. And this has caused them to misinterpret the primary message of their religion. And this is causing a lot of rift in humanity and people are now away from the primary purpose of the religion.

Q: How can you say the image on the Moon is that of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi?
A: Because we have the photographs of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi and we can recognise it. We invite others to do the same.   

Q: That means that anybody can see it?
A: Yes, anybody can see it.

Q: Are the blessings of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi confined to Hindus only?
A: No, for all humanity equally.

Q: What is the religion of the followers of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi?
A: Divine love.

Q: Do you find any difficulties in promoting this message all over the countries?
A: No.

Q: So, how do you see the future of the world?
A: The future of the world is really horrible.

Q: So many people talk about the end times. What do you say about this?
A: The end times, I believe, are near and this is why we are promoting spirituality and divine love. When the Kalki Avatar is finally here, this is the announcement that the end times are near.

Q: Why is the world becoming worse day by day? Do you think there is a link between the world’s problems and the religions?
A: This problem is getting worse because people are only thinking about their bodies and the luxuries and comforts of their bodies. They have forgotten to take care of their souls. This is why peace of heart and mind is missing from their lives, and greed, injustice and corruption has taken place. Because they have distanced themselves from the core message of their religion. Divine love has diminished and hatred has taken place; and when the hatred and evil power is inside the heart, it only promotes corruption, injustice, greed and all that.

Q: Do you believe in heaven and hell? People say when you do good things, after that you will go to heaven. And when you do bad things in your lifetime, after that you will go to hell. What do you say about this?
A: We believe in heaven and hell.

Q: In the Japanese meditation system, they have alpha, beta, theta, which are stages in achieving meditation. They use electronic methods. Do you think there is any link with religion?
A: There are two types of belief systems in the world today. 1- Those which were established by prophets and messengers, and God helped them, so they were from God. 2- And some other religions were manmade. So, man also has created some meditation principles, but we understand you cannot reach God with a set of principles that were not introduced and created by God.

Q: Some priests in the Himalayas get into ice-cold water, but it seems to them that the water is steaming hot. They say it is because of the power of meditation. What do you say about this?
A: Well, it can be true because the human body is very intelligent and it can adapt to different situations and conditions. As I earlier said, according to our belief system, meditation is a very spiritual thing. However, some people also attribute yoga to meditation; this can be a yoga practice.

Q: A lot of people follow this type of meditation in America, Europe, etc. to help solve their problems. Do you think it has a positive effect on people?
A: Indian gurus go to America a lot, like Deepak Chopra. And they are promoting meditation there. However, I understand that by just focusing your mind on certain things, it can give you a little bit of peace of mind but it will not solve the problems. We need to solve the problems for the permanent solution of peace of mind.

Q: Are the followers of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi vegetarians or non-vegetarians?
A: Because the followers of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi are not from one religion, they’re from different religions, they find the teachings of Lord Ra Riaz very helpful and they’re learning spirituality. So those who come from a vegetarian background strictly follow their regime. However, some other followers who come from Catholicism, Christianity, Muslim background, they follow their religious principles.

Q: Do you think vegetarians get the power of meditation easier than others?
A: I think becoming a vegetarian is very good for health and it does really help an individual to progress in meditation.

Q: Today the world is suffering from terrorism. So what is your solution?
A: Terrorism is because of intolerance and also the understanding that ‘I am right, the other one is wrong’. When you think you are right and all others are wrong and you are so fanatic about it that you do not want to accept their presence, this is fanaticism and extremism. We shouldn’t have such things in our society.
But the only solution to this wave of terrorism is to give them knowledge and true interpretation of their book. And that true interpretation should come from enlightened people who are connected with God, not those who have become gurus and Sufis by reading books. Because these books have been written by individuals who may be affected by some other opinions. Then again, it is the matter of interpretation. We need a spiritual personality to interpret the divine books today.
 I do not think any religion on earth can allow one individual to kill another one in the name of God or in the name of any religion. It’s just that people do not have the right interpretation and the correct understanding of the religion.

Q: Can we change people involved in terrorism psychologically through meditation?
A: You see, these people who are now becoming part of terrorism, they have their incentives and different agendas. We need to educate individuals and we need to educate them correctly. And this is the only solution that I understand will help them get rid of their intolerant belief system.

Q: So the Kalki Avatar Foundation helps put such people on the correct manner? How?
A: Of course. The teachings of spirituality are based on love. Love for all. Love of human beings, love of God. One who loves God cannot hate and kill a human being.

Q: How do you approach correcting such a person?
A: We spiritualise them. We give them this Initiation of the Heart. When God’s light enters his heart, that light of God will wipe out the elements of hatred and negativity from him. And once the heart has become enlightened and the mind has become enlightened, then people will not be inclined towards fanaticism, extremism and terrorism.

Q: Incurable diseases like cancer - do you think it can be cured?
A: It has cured many.

Q: How do you approach it?
A: We just use the divine light that Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi has invested in certain individuals. They meditate and blow upon them, and this is how they are healed.

Q: Suppose that I am a cancer patient. How can I approach and get the divine light?
A: Well obviously if you were a patient and you knew about me, you would contact me. And then I would do the spiritual healing on you.

Q: Do you charge a fee for your services?
A: No. All services are free of charge.

Q: What if alcoholics wanted to join in order to get rid of their addiction?
A: Yeah, everybody can join.

Q: So is there any requirement to be a follower of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi?
A: No.

Q: Even a child can join?
A: Of course.

Q: So, how do you see the people of Sri Lanka responding towards this spirituality?
A: They’re being very earnest and they are responding really well. They are adopting the message of spirituality, message of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi, and they are benefitting from it.

Q: Is Sri Lanka safe from natural disasters like tsunamis?
A: I can’t say that. A natural disaster is a natural disaster. A natural disaster will not ask any spiritualist before it comes.

Q: There are so many problems in the world. People think, ‘Is there any God? Where is he? Why did he create so many problems in the world?’ What is your answer?
A: My answer is very clear: I do not know why people attribute these problems to God. People have made these problems themselves and if they are holding God responsible for these problems, it would be really silly.
Number 2, we do talk about God only when we’re in trouble and we don’t seem to come out of these problems. But we do not feel the need to be connected to God and we don’t want to love God, we just want to ask God to help our problems. It doesn’t work like this. God will take care of people who are really connected to God, they love God and God will love them. People need to make sacrifices to become enlightened ones and spiritual ones. Historically speaking, all these individuals, in all religions, before they became enlightened and mighty personality, sacrificed a lot. They went into jungles, they enlightened themselves, they purified themselves, they made a lot of sacrifices. And once they became friends of God, they helped the entire world. We need enlightenment and we need spirituality.
I don’t think God has created these problems. It’s the human beings that created these problems. God never asked anybody to do anything wrong. If we do wrong and we hold God responsible for it, it would be really injustice.

Q: After death, what happens to a person?
A: After death, our body is either cremated or buried in the grave, and the soul departs to the heavens.

Q: Is there a decrease in the [human] population because people are dying a lot?
A: Yeah, people are dying in great numbers, but at the same time people are born in large numbers.
