What is Videham Mukthi?

5 June 2013 Morning meditation

Vasantha : Swami, when I was writing about the guru, what were the four clouds on

the picture? 

Swami : All are passing clouds, now only four remain. Thus, I will come in four

months time. 

Vasantha : Really Swami? You will come on Your birthday?

Swami : Sure I will come.

Vasantha : This is enough Swami, please show some proof for this.

End of meditation

Now let us see about this. At noon, Swami gave a card with His picture when He

was young. On the back were many trees with a river flowing underneath. There on the

river a heart form is seen emerging and two eyes. Above the two eyes another one, three

in total. Swami gave this as proof for Him coming (also showing His young form on the

other side of the card). It is through my heartfelt feelings that Swami comes again. He is

showing this. In the picture, many things are seen reflected in the water. There are three

eyes and the reflection of many trees. The element of water is connected to the mouth,

which indicates one of the five senses. I write my feelings through the words that come

from my mouth. These feelings make Swami’s new form. My tears, wailing and the

unbearable suffering and sorrow all bring Him back. My tears run like this river; Swami

comes out from here. Water connects to the fourth prakaram of the Stupi. Swami also

shows His return in four months through this. When we looked more closely, we saw

many pairs of eyes were there. This is according to Sarvatho Pani Padam, but this is

Sarvatho Shiromukha. Thus, all places are God’s eyes, hands, mouths, legs, etc.

When Swami comes, He will become the entire creation. The omnipresent eyes

show this. The two eyes near the heart shape indicate Swami. All others are for creation.

Through this, He confirms His arrival

A few days ago, Swami gave a round paper plate. On the front was an octagon

shape made from eight knife shaped blades. In the center was a rose, on one side of the

rose one leaf, then two and lastly three. Next to this a butterfly sits. 

When I saw this, I remembered the life of Saint Catherine. A king nailed her to a

wheel. The eight-sided form on the plate looked like a wheel made of blades. Inside the

orange rose indicates Swami. There is only one Adi Moolam. He separates Himself in

two. This is the one leaf becoming two. Swami and His Shakthi, these two, make the

creation, shown by the three leaves. Thus, God, Shakthi and His Creation are one. One

becomes two, two becomes three. The octagon represents Vaikunta, which descends on

the earth. All become freed from the karmic cocoon and are transformed into butterflies. 

Swami and I must pay a price for bestowing Jeevan Mukthi state on all. Just as

Jesus was crucified on the cross, Swami’s and my body are crucified on this wheel. This

is the chakra of world karmas. It wounds both His and my body. The national symbol of

India is the Dharma Chakra. Yet, in the Kali Yuga all in the world has become the

Adharma Chakra. Thus, Swami and I carry this Adharma Chakra’s karmas. We then

bestow Mukthi on all. All become Jeevan Mukthas. The world will function as Sathya Yuga. 

Today, I read something in the June issue of 'Sanathana Sarathi' from Swami’s

discourse of 1 August 1996. There Swami talks of the two kinds of Mukthi, ‘Jeevan

Mukthi and Videha Mukthi’. Whatever happens, the Jeevan Muktha never worries. His

mind is always turned toward God. He knows that all are one. This is the Jeevan Muktha

state. Yet, he has body consciousness. The Videha Muktha has no body consciousness,

so he is called as, ‘Videha’, without body. Swami said that King Janaka was the best

example of this. 

9 June 2013 Morning meditation

Vasantha : Swami, please give me Videham Mukthi. I am always thinking about the

body. 

Swami : You are Videha Muktha. In this world, you alone are Videha Muktha. You

are showing the world the 'without body' state. No one does as you do. 

Vasantha : Then why is there always body consciousness, the whole body in pain.

Swami : This is for world liberation. You have given your body for this. Your body

is for world karmas.

End of meditation

Now let us see about this. I have had no body consciousness from a young age. I

have no feelings of thirst or hunger. Why is this so? It is because this is the first time I

am born in this world. I have no body. I have no ‘i’. It is only when there is ‘i’ (ego), do

thoughts come about the body. My only thoughts are of Swami. I do not have any other

thoughts. Thus in my final moments, my body will become a jyothi and merge with

Swami’s body. I also pray to Swami to offer my body to Him. Thus, I offered my body for

world karmas. It is through my sadhana, a new body will come. I will then offer this to

Swami. In this world, no one has ever done in this way before. This prayer, ‘Loka

Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu’ has been proclaimed from Age to Age, time after time. I

too demonstrate it in my life. Swami, the greatest Avatar came here to demonstrate it.

He showed the real meaning and demonstrated Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu.

He carried all the karmas of the world and left His body. He now comes in a new body. 

I want to offer my body to Swami, but have offered it for world karmas. After the

karmas end in this body that I offer to the world, it will change and be made anew. It will

change according to my wishes and become young, beautiful and virginal. I will then

offer it to Swami This is Videham Mukthi. I am in the state of Videham Mukthi in order

to bestow the Jeevan Mukthi state on all. Yet, all of you offer your body to your desires.

You work hard to fulfill these desires; expending great amounts of energy and using

your life force. Then without fulfilling your desires, you offer your body to the fire. You

then are reborn and again offer your body for your desires. With each new birth a new

body comes. Yet, I offer my body for world well-being. This body changes and becomes a

new body. So, enough of taking ever-new bodies. For this body, you get anger, lust,

greed, jealousy, attachment and ego. Realize this
