MFI Canada in Montreal, Quebec

Recently, a team from Messiah Foundation Canada took the message of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi to Montreal, Quebec for the first time. Montreal is the 2nd largest city in the world where French is primarily spoken.

Our team spent their time there handing out leaflets to locals in Downtown Montreal and meeting with the administrations of spiritualist churches. These churches’ core message is similar to Messiah Foundation International’s in that they promote tolerance and universal understanding. Overall, the response was very encouraging and we look forward to continue our activities in Montreal.

Kalki Avatar Foundation India in Haridwar, Uttarakhand

On the 7th and 8th of August, Kalki Avatar Foundation India visited the Holy City of Haridwar, Uttarakhand for the Ganga (Ganges) Snan. Every day, thousands of people visit the Ganges to perform purification rituals as per Sanatan Dharma.

Our team displayed banners showing Kalki Avatar Gohar Shahi’s divinely manifested images on the Moon, Maha Shivling and more. Many people kissed the images on the banners out of love and respect. A majority received Simran of Ra Raam from the image of Kalki Avatar and took our leaflets home for their personal benefit. Plenty of people gave their contact numbers hoping to hear from Kalki Avatar Foundation. The response, overall, was wonderful and our team is excited to visit Haridwar again soon!

Leafleting at Sai Baba Temple, Chhatarpur, New Delhi

On the 30th of July, 2015, a team from Kalki Avatar Foundation Delhi visited the Sai Baba Mandir in Chhatarpur, New Delhi. This temple is open year-round for thousands of Hindu devotees. Our ministers stood in front of the temple and handed out leaflets to passers-by; all aspirants were ecstatic to learn about the Goharian Philosophy of Divine Love and were given the Simran of Ra Raam. The aspirants also took our leaflets home with them for blessings and protection as well as our contact number so that they may invite us in their homes.

Self-Love

Everyone claims to love the Lord more than they love anybody or anything else. But in reality, a human being loves himself more than he loves anybody else.

We help others and exhibit generosity for our own satisfaction and pleasure. Self-love is very discreet and you never happen to notice how much you love yourself.

In loving your own self, you exhibit love to others thinking this love will bounce back and that you will gain respect and love.

A common man will never think that he loves himself. But you love your children because they are your children and you love your wife because she is your wife. You do not feel the same love for another person’s children or wife.

Have you ever thought about how much you love yourself? Most people don’t think about it.

Everybody loves himself but you cannot love anybody else until you stop loving yourself.

Either you love yourself, or you love your wife, children, business or the Lord. You cannot love two different things at the same time, including yourself. If you say, ‘I love so-and-so,’ it means you love yourself and that person.

When you love others, you love them for your own sake. You actually love yourself and you express love to your children, wife, parents and fellowmen.

Now the question is: are you able to see whether or not you love the Lord more than you love yourself? Do you have a criterion upon which you can judge whose love weighs more in the scale of your heart?

In order to weaken self-love in you, you have to learn the art of forgiving.

If you have learned to forgive your enemy, it will benefit you greatly. By doing so, your ego will weaken thus lessening your self-love. However, if you retaliate and take revenge, you are causing great harm to yourself because it will strengthen your ego.

Ask yourself: is it easy for you to forgive others, especially those who have really damaged your good name, who are slandering and back-biting against you? It will always hurt; but relatively, it will become easy to say, ‘No, I am not going to retaliate. I will forgive.’

True forgiveness is not verbally saying, ‘I forgive you.’ Rather, it means there are no negative emotions or malice in your heart for that person. Your heart is clean.

But this ability to forgive comes with the abundance of Divine Energy in your heart and souls.

‘When you love others, you actually love them for your own sake.’ - His Holiness Younus AlGohar, Self-Love

Quote of the Day: What Cannot Make a Human...

'What cannot make a human humane isn't any knowledge at all.' - His Holiness Younus AlGohar 

Inner Peace

Inner purification is not related to any religion. In order to recognise God, we must first recognise ourselves. We must recognise who we are and what the purpose of our life is. We must also become aware of our abilities and qualities.

A human being is made up of many different souls; each soul has a specific function. Each soul has the ability to reach its respective realm once it is enlightened; in order for this to happen, there is no need to travel.

His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi said, ‘Some people use the practice of mesmerism, telepathy and hypnotism to absorb sunrays in order to gain spiritual power. However this practice cannot connect one with God.’

Spirituality is visualising the name of God on your heart, thus producing Divine Energy and enlightening the heart and mind. When Divine Energy enters the heart, one is connected to God. Spirituality is not related to any religion; rather, it is the enlightenment of the souls to reach their respective realms. Through spirituality, one can reach God.

The teachings of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi are the Spiritual Sciences that are accepted by all, no matter if they are religious or not. HDE Gohar Shahi has made spirituality practically and easily accessible to all.

As time is passing, the world is changing rapidly and so is the thought-process. There was a time man was running after money, built lavish homes and accumulated great wealth through fraudulent means.

Today man has everything, but not the wealth of inner peace.

‘Verily, the inner peace of the heart lies in the remembrance of God.’ – The Quran

However inner peace of all does not lie in the remembrance of God. If you are not an Enlightened Devout, then your inner peace lies in something else. Many people enjoy partying and some others feel peaceful when their business is thriving. Some people feel peace and happiness when their children are in front of them.

Only one who has the potential to be an Enlightened Devout will feel peace in the remembrance of God.

Quote of the Day: Faith is a Combination...

'Faith is a combination of inner and outer purification.' - His Holiness Younus AlGohar

Apostasy of the Devotees - The Quran

The following is an excerpt from a speech by His Holiness Younus AlGohar, the Official Representative of Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi. 

Faith is a combination of your external dimension of the religion and inner enlightenment of the heart.

Faith is the combination of two: inner and outer purification. It is servitude by the body and the truth settling in the heart as a result of enlightenment.

Thousands of people convert from one religion into another. You will see a lot of people converting into Islam. They are invited to study Islam and the preachers of Islam give lectures. As a result of their study or understanding, people make a choice and convert into Islam. But their conversion is based on their decision and choice; this conversion is not endorsed by God. God is not aware.

Let’s assume you converted into Islam from Christianity. When you were Christian, God was not aware of you being a Christian. And now, when from Christianity you converted into Islam, still, God is not aware of your conversion.

The only time God will be aware of who you are and what you are doing is when you find a spiritual guide who takes you to the court of God seeking permission from him to initiate your heart into spirituality.

The only time God will be aware of you and your actions is when you find a proper spiritual guide who has seen God and has been appointed by God to represent him. He is permitted and delegated by God to initiate hearts of people.

He works like a bridge between man and God. The Quran describes such a man to be a divine agent.

Once the spiritual guide has taken your file and your photograph to Bait ul Mamour (The House of the Appointed One), His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi said, ‘God asks, “Why have you brought him here?” The spiritual guide says, “To make friends with you.” Then God says, “Does he have a guarantor? If he runs away after he has been accepted, who will be responsible?”’

In the past, people respected the Auliya Ikram and Fuqra (saints). All orthodox Sunni Muslims believed in Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani and also believed he is the head, the leader of the saints. I personally believe that and His Divine Eminence taught me to believe that.

So people would believe in the chain of saints and in the authority of Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani. They would celebrate his Urs and birthday. The only one who would be accepted by God as guarantor was Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani. When a guarantor is needed and he steps forward to take responsibility, only then is God satisfied and commands the angels to initiate the heart of the aspirant.

But that was the case prior to the advent of His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi. When His Divine Eminence came, the key of Ism-e-Dhaat Allah (God’s Name) was handed over to HDE by Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jilani and he retired.

Only after exhaustive scrutiny and careful consideration was a man granted to be accepted in spirituality. As a result of the Initiation of the Heart, you would become a Momin (devout).

You have a guarantor and then you have another two saints who will guard upon you. You have endorsement of the Prophet Mohammad and then sanctions of God. There are so many things involved in your initiation to make sure that you don’t run away.

The question is: after everything has been done to ensure that you stay on the guided path of spirituality, why at one stage would you want to quit your religion? How would you become an apostate?

The Quran says, ‘A time will come when Momineen (devotees) of all religions will quit their religions.’

[5:54]

How would they quit their religions? We understand you cannot become a Momin without a guarantor, sanctions and permission of God, endorsement of your prophet [and your spiritual guide]. When you have so many people roaming about your heart making sure you do not fall astray, the chances are you would not be misguided even in your dreams. What will happen to their guarantors?

If a person who was a Christian converted into Islam [or any other religion], it is not notified to God because God is not bothered.

God gets involved with a man only when somebody applies to him to grant his friendship to that particular seeker of the path.

If you practise Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, etc. it has nothing to do with God. It has to do with the religion and the prophet of the religion.

This is not something that we have derived from some imperative commands of God. It is mentioned in the Quran.

The Quran says, ‘The Bedouins (Arabs) say, “We are Momineen.” Tell them that they are not Momin. They should rather say, “We have become Muslims.” Yet faith has not entered their hearts.’

[49:14]

Once faith enters your heart, only then will you become Momin. Recitation of the Kalima (Declaration of Faith) by your tongue doesn’t make you a Momin.

For a person who is not Momin, his conversion into any religion is not notified to God. So God is not bothered.

Today you are a Muslim. Tomorrow you may become a Christian. Day after tomorrow you may decide to become a Jew. And the day after that, you may want to convert into Sikhism and then Hinduism. You can keep changing your religion every day, but don’t think God is concerned.

God becomes concerned when somebody has been sanctioned and admitted into his friendship by God and then he has a guarantor, a spiritual guide and the caretaker as the prophet. So much is done before you are accepted to ensure that you don’t run away. It is highly unlikely that when you have so many caretakers and guardians guarding you that you run away and quit your religion.

The Quran says, ‘A time will come when Momineen (note: God did not say “Muslims”) in all the religions will quit their religion.’

How will it happen?

For example, you are a Momin in Islam and you came to Mehdi Foundation International.

We told you about the secrets of God and about the secret of the Grand God. We told you that if you are accepted by Lord Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi, Lord Ra Riaz allows your soul to blend with one of His reflection of being; you become united through spiritual transformation and fusion. You will be then transporting from humanity to divinity. You will be entering the Unseen World.

When you have got this message and the new name of God, ‘Ra Riaz Gohar Shahi’ enters into the perimeters of your Batin (Inner Dimension) and changes everything inside you, is there any guarantor who can then become a hurdle in between a man and the Grand God?

Is there any prophet who would say, ‘Where are you going?’

The moment they find out that one of the men from their religion has been given to transport to the Unseen World which was restricted to God-being only, he would want to go there too rather than stopping them. This is how all the guarantors would quit and say, ‘I can’t stop you.’
