Disciple:
On this late afternoon, Guru, I offer you my respects. I also offer my respects to the mother and father of this Shantikhunjo. Guru, today we have a main topic of discussion that we would like you to enlighten us on. It's regarding the frequent earthquakes happening everywhere lately. You mentioned that we will see the results of this in the future. How is that unfolding?
Guru:
Why are you asking me to speak on this again? I have spoken about earthquakes many times. Regarding what happened last nightâyou saw the conjunction of the Moon and Mars. This happened after many years. Mars came very close to the Moon. The result of this is fearsome. Mars understands nothing but bloodshed, and the Moon is the messenger of death. Consequently, it is my firm belief that the earthquake that is coming will be devastating. We have identified three potential areas: one side is Meghalaya and Myanmar; another side is Gujarat, Rajasthan, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh; and the third is Tatanagar, Jamshedpur. We expect severe earthquakes in these three locations. A few days ago, after observing the Moon, I told the boys here that a major earthquake is imminent. Mars was hovering around the Moon. For three or four days, we saw Mars moving near the Moon.
Guru:
From this, I had a firm conviction that a big earthquake was coming. It has already occurred in the Bay of Bengalâa high-intensity earthquake that people are not even aware of. Its intensity was fearsome. And then, last night's conjunction of the Moon and Mars... it makes us think deeply: is another earthquake imminent? And this time, it won't be small; it won't stay at a magnitude of 3 or 4. it will rise to 7 or 8. That is the concern. People will be afraid to hear this, but it will happen. We believe the Moon is the messenger of death, and Mars represents bloodshed. The combination of these two will lead to immense bloodshed and death. There is no doubt about it. We saw this conjunction after many years. It came very, very close. This leads us to believe an earthquake is coming that will cause massive destruction.
Disciple:
Guru, I want to ask one thing. India is a spiritual country. People perform so much worship and seek merit; we have sacred lands everywhere. Why then do these earthquakes happen specifically in our India?
Guru:
You are mistaken there. What does worship have to do with this? This is related to the planets and stars. No matter how much you worship, when a bad time comes, God will not turn His face toward you. That is the law of God. It's a "bad time," and the planets are shifting. This wasn't supposed to happenâthis meeting of the Moon and Mars. But it was seen at midnight last night, even if it wasn't clearly visible due to the cloudy sky. It was seen just a little. From that, we can say without a doubt that a fearsome earthquake is coming. Three places have been mentioned: Jamshedpur, Myanmar, and the Gujarat-Rajasthan-Delhi area.
Disciple:
Guru, is this earthquake very close? You are warning us... will it be before or after the Puja?
Guru:
Look, the Moon has moved 1.25 million miles closer to the Earth. You've seen how the Moon's gravity affects the tides. Based on that, the Moon has an attraction, and Mars has an attraction. These two attractions are working together. Because of this, we can say that within two to four days, something fearsome will happen. It doesn't happen instantly; it takes a few days. Also, a halo/rainbow was seen around the sun at 11:00 AM today. That circle is not a good sign to us. From this, we can conclude that somethingâa natural disasterâis coming. There is no mistake; a natural disaster will occur. This meeting of Mars and the Moon is very dangerous. It might not happen again for another 70 to 100 years.
Guru:
After seeing the Moon last night, I saw Mars hovering around it. There was some distance, maybe five or seven hands apart, but last night it seemed as if it had merged into the Moon's body. The rays and attraction of both are working together. If the Moon can move 12,500 miles closer, then Mars must have moved closer too to meet it. This is what our astronomyânot just astrology, but astronomyâis telling us.
Disciple:
I understand, Guru. Since the Moon and Mars have met, their influence is affecting the world. You say India will be affected. What should people do now?
Guru:
What is there to do? There is no other way but to call upon God. If He saves us, He saves us. But right now, it is a time of "Pralay" (catastrophe). The world is passing through its worst state, starting from the planets. No matter how much you call upon God, He may not answer. You could spend millions on worship, but God may not respond.
Disciple:
If you say this, people might stop performing Puja.
Guru:
What can they do? Worship is happening everywhere, bells are ringing, but what is the result? We performed the Mahamritunjay Yagna for a thousand days. We did so much. But it feels like pouring ghee into ashes (a wasted effort). I don't know what will happen. Lord Mahadev is the controller; He is the creator. We are remembering Him according to the Vedanta. If He protects us, He protects us. That is our prayer to the Lord of the Universe.
Disciple:
Guru, we have seen God in the form of flesh and bloodâhuman beings who have stood before us as God and protected us. Can't practitioners like you stop this?
Guru:
We are also restless; we are in pain and cannot bear it. We are calling upon God every moment. We are performing rituals so that the world, not just India, can be saved. We are trying our best. Everyone should call upon God together. The world is passing through a bad time that will likely last through 2022. Regarding COVID-19, it cannot trouble us much anymore; COVID is over. This talk of a "third wave" is just propaganda and cleverness. I don't think a third wave will come. The original COVID-19 is what's lingering. We are advising against gatherings, as that's how it spreads. People have become lax, thinking it's gone. In Kolkata, it is practically gone. I asked several COVID doctors, and they said there are no more deaths in Kolkata. But there are other places like Mumbai, and Kerala, where it's still present. That's not a third wave; it's the second wave continuing.
Disciple:
So, you are saying we are nearly free from COVID, but Nature's strike is still pending?
Guru:
Yes. If not COVID, then an earthquake, or a storm, or a flood. We are emphasizing earthquakes. But there could be floods too. The recent earthquake in the Bay of Bengal near Chennai caused a surge in the sea. It happened 360 km away from Chennai, under the seabed.
Guru:
As days go by, the sea level is rising. Ice is melting in Antarctica. Scientists say many places near the sea will be submerged. They used to say 30 years, but now they say 15 to 20 years. We cannot ignore the scientists; they are researching day and night. The situation in Antarctica is not good.
Disciple:
Guru, if an earthquake is imminent in India, shouldn't people make arrangements instead of just praying?
Guru:
What arrangements can you make? People have built houses everywhere without planning. There isn't even a place for a drain. People will suffer. If they had been conscious earlier and built houses properly, the loss wouldn't be so great. But back then, there wasn't such foresight or scientific influence. People built wherever they could. Look at the houses built on the banks of the Gangesâtwo and three-story houses are falling into the water. Did they ever think their houses would go into the Ganges? But the erosion is so bad. They should have known not to build there. Over the last year, we've seen the Padma and Ganges eroding banks and swallowing trees and houses. I predicted this regarding COVID and nature. Today, August 28th, I am predicting it again: an earthquake is imminent. I can say this based on the planetary environment.
Guru:
What you saw last night with the Moon and Mars... the Moon is the messenger of death, and Mars wants nothing but blood. There will be a bloody conflict, perhaps through earthquakes, or like what's happening with the Taliban in Afghanistan. God will strike, one way or another. He can strike through war or through nature. No one will be spared. No matter how much you pray, nothing will happen. We have prayed so much and continue to do so.
Disciple:
Guru, you have made us lose hope.
Guru:
It's not about losing hope. We are trying. One person alone cannot do it; everyone must try. But no one seems concerned. When it happens, then they will understand. You cannot appease God to stop an earthquake. Earthquakes happen when volcanoes wake up, like the wildfires in Russia which have raised temperatures and melted ice in Antarctica. These are signs of "Pralay." Multiple earthquakes, waking volcanoes, wildfiresâthese are the symptoms.
Disciple:
Guru, we are calling upon God, and so are you and other practitioners for the sake of humanity.
Guru:
We do not want the human race to be destroyed. We are trying in various ways to see how humanity can be protected. I see a hundred people here every day, and I try my best for them by calling upon the Mother. If everyone calls upon God together, it will happen. There is no other way.
Disciple:
Guru, you couldn't quite reassure us, but we hope for your blessings.
Guru:
I am doing my part. Those who come here get my blessings. But not everyone in the world is coming here. Still, I ask the Mother to protect everyone in every corner of the earth. That is my plea to Her.
Disciple:
At this beautiful moment, I offer my respects to the Mother and Father of Shantikhunjo and to you. Respects, Guru.
Guru:
Respects.
