MYSTERY OF KALKI

Kalki is considered the tenth avatar of Vishnu. He is foretold to appear at the end of ‘Kali Yuga’, the current epoch. “Kalki”  literally means  “destroyer of the filth” . That is to say, the Kalki avatar would destroy all the evil and corrupt practices and will restore the  Dharma  (true religion) in its original form. The Purana scriptures foretell that Kalki will be atop a white horse with a drawn blazing sword. Till date, only one person has matched all the characteristics of Kalki and he is none other than Prophet Muhammad. The only problem was the timing of his appearance. He did appeared in the Kali Yuga but not at its end. Now, we all very well know that horses and swords are things of the past. In today’s time, there are guns, tanks, fighter planes, bombs, missiles, etc. And the rate at which technology is developing we are only going to witness nuclear and arsenic attacks. No one would revert to the old-fashioned swords and horses. Thus it can be safe...

MUHAMMAD IN THE BIBLE

Some of the important prophecies from the Bible are as follows: Old   Testament: “ The   Lord   thy   God   will   raise   up   unto   thee   a   prophet   from   the   midst   of   thee ,  of    thy  brethren ,  like   unto   me ;  unto   him   ye   shall   hearken .” “ And   the   Lord   said   unto   me ,  ‘ They   have   well   spoken   that   which   they   have   spoken .  I   will  raise   them   up   a   Prophet   from   among   their   brethren ,  like   unto   thee ,  and   will   put   My Words   in   his    mouth ;  and  he   shall   speak   unto   them   all   that   I   shall   command   him ...

THE PROMISED MESSIAH

No question of expecting the Promised Messiah as he had already come and gone. A mind-boggling discovery was made in the  ‘Dead   Sea   Scrolls’  (3rd century BCE – 1st century CE). It was about the promised  two Messiahs ,  and not one  as taught by the early Christian Church which was mostly busy monopolizing Christianity and destroying earlier recordings of Jesus Christ and his true disciples [such as banning the authentic books and blacklisting them at the Nicene Council held in 325 CE]. The prediction of two messiah is something that many scholars in Judaism very well know. These scrolls also refer to the two messiahs as  1) priestly messiah, and 2) lay messiah. In ‘The Dead Sea Scrolls Uncovered’ by Robert Eisenman and Michael Wise, we read that although the early scrolls spoke of two messiahs, but later on the communities of Jews began to combine them into one messiah. “As we have suggested, contrary to the well-known ‘two-Messi...

BUDDHA AS PROPHET

Born Siddhartha Gautama was known as ‘Shakyamuni’ (i.e. ‘Sage of the Shakya Clan’) to his followers. ‘Buddha’ was the title conferred on him when he had attained enlightenment. Literal meaning of the word “Buddha” is “One who is awakened to the truth”. This can be better understood from the following definition by H.P.Blavatsky: Buddha (Sk.) Lit., “The Enlightened”.   The highest degree of knowledge. To become a Buddha one has to break through the bondage of sense and personality; to acquire a complete perception of the REAL SELF and learn not to separate it from all other selves; to learn by experience the utter unreality of all phenomena of the visible Kosmos foremost of all; to reach a complete detachment from all that is evanescent and finite, and live while yet on Earth in the immortal and the everlasting alone, in the supreme state of holiness. Shakyamuni was not the only buddha in this world. There were many buddhas before him and also some after him. As he himself d...
