TRIMURTI SHIV JAYANTI

(Maha Shivratri)

We, the people of Bharat, have been celebrating Maha Shivratri year after year for centuries. On the path of Bhakti, the concept of simple faith has kept this festival alive to date. However, our self-introspection and subtle reflection compels us to ponder over the exactness or Truth about this centuries-old devotional celebration. The Sanskrit scholars and great pundits could explain hundreds of interesting stories and mythological events to prove how fruitful it is to have faith and just offer a few leaves of Bel Patras to please Lord Shiva while seeking His blessings on the night of Maha Shivratri... It is further assured that this would reap positive results, and fulfill all materialistic or worldly wishes of becoming rich, experiencing health benefits and even freedom from the Cycle of Rebirth. However, it is a matter yet to be proved right. As per the divine law of cyclic order of this world, and as per God’s own promise as enunciated in our scriptures of ancient Bharat, God Shiva descends but once in the cycle of creation to enlighten human beings about His own true identity as well as the truth about His creation. On the basis of the personal experiences of Pitashri Prajapita Brahma in the year 1936 and thereafter, truth  about God’s existence and knowledge about His vast creation have been found to be very unique and appealing, resulting in transformation of human outlook and inculcation of spiritual values and divine virtues. On the basis of this knowledge, a beautiful and loving relationship is established between each individual human soul and the Almighty God Shiva that helps divinize human consciousness. When we celebrate the 78th Trimurti Shiva Jayanti on 28th February 2014, we would feel so proud and honoured in sharing the most invaluable secret with one and all: this is the most opportune time to awaken spiritually, and empower ourselves so that we can visualize the self in our true star-like form, and experience divine knowledge and Godly powers as our spiritual inheritance from our Eternal Spiritual Father God Shiva. This simple but most effective way of spiritual communion or meditation on the light-form of Shiva automatically bestows on us the boons and blessings of God’s love, purity, virtues and power. This powerful form of spiritual meditation helps us reconnect with our original selves, so that we naturally cleanse the self of weaknesses/defects and settle karmic accounts in order to experience Mukti (Liberation from Negativity) and Jeevan Mukti (Salvation).The best way to celebrate Maha Shivratri would be to know the difference between God Shiva and the Trimurti angelic creation of Brahma, Vishnu and Mahadev/Shankar. This would automatically dispel the confusion created by the mythological stories about Shankar-Parvati and the other angelic deities. God Shiva is the Bestower of Mukti and Jeevan Mukti to all humankind. Those who are fortunate enough to have recognized, learnt and practiced the same as per the direct revelations by Supreme Father God Shiva through divine visions as well as the spiritual teachings (Murlis), from 1936 to date, can appreciate the Truth, Beauty and Benevolence for which God Shiva is praised and remembered so fondly as “Satyam - Shivam -Sundaram”. Let us become soul-conscious as star-like beings of eternal spiritual light and might, and remember God Father Shiva, to be worthy of returning to Paramdham (Highest Abode of God) and then descending into Golden Age (Satyuga) as deities. The daily spiritual practice of re-affirming our personal relationship with our most beloved Supreme Father would bestow on us the fruit of freedom from Kaliyuga’s bondages, and empower us with purity and divinity to be worthy of receiving the inheritance of the Golden-Aged Deity Empire. May you receive God Shiva’s blessings of Mukti-Jeevan Mukti, the Sovereignty of the Golden Age!
