Furat,

It is clear that Jesus publicly announced His message despite the
inherent danger to go against the established religion of Judaism.
It is the proclamation that He was the Son of God which ultimately
cost Him His life, compounded by refusal to back down.

Subsequently, the post-Easter period saw His frightened followers
spreading the Good News privately. Despite secrecy many were
martyred and fed to the lions as sport to amuse the Romans.

However, over time the Good News was proclaimed openly and led to
the rapid rise of Christianity.

The same happened during the time of Prophet Muhammad - initial
resistance to God's message, plots of assassination, the Hegira in
622 where Muhammad flees to Medina; and in 630 Muhammad returns in
triumph and captures Mecca. This led to the phenomenal rise of Islam
as His followers boldly proclaimed Mohammed's message, and many
were martyred in the process.

The cornerstone of the rise of both Christianity and Islam is that
the believers braved life and limb in order to stand steadfast to
the Truth. They all announced the message of the Incarnation.

Fast forward to 2003. The world is far safer than what the devotees
of Jesus or Prophet Muhammad had to endure. It is filled with all
types of technological marvels to reach every corner of the globe in
the blink of an eye. Never has it been so much easier to spread the
Adi Shakti's message of the Last Judgment and the Resurrection to
the human race.

But what do we have? SYs living in collective caves fearful of even
venturing out to proclaim the Truth. They feebly whisper about
subtle systems to the masses made deaf by the roar of exotic autos
and din of disco music. No one is paying the least attention and yet
they persist, year after year, decade after decade.

Then there are a few who decide to boldly take Shri Mataji's message
to the masses. They have repeatedly listened to Her late 70s and
early 80s speeches where She exhorts Her followers, time and gain,
to declare Her advent and the truth of the Last Judgment and Al-
Qiyamah. Websites are set up to present proof of Her divinity and
evidence of the Good News. After nearly 4 years and hundreds of
thousands of visitors later, no voice of dissent is heard. Not even
a single human, not even the most unforgiving Muslims, dare lift a
finger to denounce the sites.

Instead of appreciating the tremendous work to publicly announce
Shri Mataji's message and the utter lack of resistance to Her Last
Judgment and Al-Qiyamah, small groups of Saugstads, Kuntal Soods and
Yogi Mahajans work diligently to undermine those who risk than, man
and dhan (body, mind and wealth) to follow Her explicit
instructions. These Pauls and Peters of Sahaja Yoga use their
influence to demonize those who dare defy them, and instead choose
to announce the Truth as Shri Mataji has done over the last 30
years – loud and clear that it is the Age of the Last Judgment!
Since they are unable/unwilling to do so they insist that all SYs
toe this line.

Well, the time has come for these Saugstads, Kuntal Soods and Yogi
Mahajans to finally act. Either take up this issue with Shri Mataji
and tell Her that i have begun to undermine the spread of Sahaja
Yoga, or just keep quiet. It is all in black and white and i am not
one who will back off. Saugstad, it is time to show your emails to
Shri Mataji.
