Question: What is the difference between Deeksha and Ilahinoor?

Answer: From a universal perspective, there isn’t much difference. It seems
to me they both come from the same Cosmic Source, they  both assist the
process of genetic activation, they are both here to prepare us to ride the
galactic waves of energy as we enter the Golden Age.

From a historical perspective, however, there are differences. Deeksha is birthed from the Hindu tradition,
which has traditionally focused on going upwards towards Spirit, dissolving into cosmic consciousness in a
state of unified bliss. Ilahinoor is birthed partly within the ancient Egyptian tradition, where the focus was on
physical mastery in the world of Matter.

From the perspective of spirit, we are descending into matter. From the perspective of matter, we are
ascending into spirit. It is a simultaneous process, and is simply a question of whether we identify more
consciously with the personality or with the soul.

In a sense we could say that Ilahinoor and Deeksha represent the yin and the yang of a cosmic polarity. After
hearing hundreds of reports from people who have experienced both forms of these cosmic energies, I would
say that Deeksha focuses more on the upper chakras, while Ilahinoor brings the experience deeper into the
body. Many people report that Ilahinoor helps them integrate and deepen the Deeksha.

I have a sense that there are many waves of awakening sweeping through collective human
consciousness as we journey towards the manifestation of the Golden Age. Each wave is birthed from the
same Source, allows us to integrate what has come before, and takes us a little bit further.

Question: Is it necessary to have both Deeksha and Ilahinoor?

Answer: None of these techniques are necessary. We are entering a phase of history where these
cosmic energies are being made available to everyone. It is simply part of our evolution from Sri
Aurobindo’s ‘human human’ into his ‘divine human’. It is all being divinely guided from within our own higher
selves. It is like we are collectively transforming from a caterpillar stage into the cocoon, and then into the
butterfly. There is nothing we can do ultimately to halt the process, nor to really force it along, only to
recognize, trust and surrender to the divine force within as it moves us forward.

Many people all over the world are having spontaneous experiences of awakening, simply by following
the path they are following, whatever it may be. We can call this Divine Grace if we like, or we can refer to
this as Cosmic Evolution.

Although none of them are necessary, all these techniques, such as Deeksha, Ilahinoor, Reconnection, and
so many more that are emerging all over the world through so many traditions, can certainly help. We can
use any of them, or all of them, as long as we realize it is not the techniques themselves, but the Divine
Source behind the techniques, that is important. Perhaps equally important is an understanding of the Big
Picture of what is happening in the world today, and why, in order that our minds can let go of our natural
resistance and fear of change.

Question: So what is the Big Picture?

Answer: In my understanding of it, we are getting ready for a quantum shift. From a scientific perspective,
we are preparing for an immensely huge download of energy from the galactic center, what astrophysicist
Paul LaViolette refers to as a ‘galactic superwave’. The base harmonic frequency of all matter in our solar
system will undergo a shift as we encounter this wave, which will result in a series of interactions leading to
a collective shift of consciousness. This is a complex subject, and I am currently in the process of writing
my next book about this, but for now I will simply say that the transition is likely to be somewhat chaotic. If
we can understand what is happening, the reasons why these things are happening, and the timing of it
all, we will be able to accept these changes more easily without going into fear, which ultimately will make
the process smoother and easier for everybody.

Question: Isn’t the Deeksha enough to bring about the Golden Age?

Answer: The Deeksha certainly has potential for this, but from my perspective there are also certain
limitations within the Movement itself. Initially, when Grace and I received our deeksha training in Golden
City, before the formal 21 day process began, we were told by Bhagavan that a certain critical mass of
64,000 awakened humans was necessary before the collective shift could happen. Deeksha seemed to
be a way to enable this collective shift, and we were very excited about the possibilities for speeding this
along.

At one point after the formal 21 day programs were initiated in early 2004, we were discussing the
morphogenetic field of enlightenment with Bhagavan. We pointed out that there wasn’t so much time left
before 2012, and asked him whether and when it would be possible for people to start initiating others
into Deeksha directly after receiving and integrating it. As we perceived it, this was a necessary aspect of
the quantum awakening if we wished to reach the goal of 64,000 awakewned humans by then. Bhagavan
responded by saying that people could experiment with this, and that if it worked for them, then they
should certainly continue.

We were happy to hear this, and began encouraging people to experiment with giving deekshas,
especially those who had attended our 10 day deeksha intensives, who were usually able to achieve
significantly deep states of consciousness. Many had good results with this. Soon afterwards, however,
we were told by Golden City that we should stop saying this to people, and that the only way to be
initiated into giving deekshas was to attend the 21 day courses at Golden City.

Unfortunately, not everybody who has a passion for global awakening has the time nor the resources to
undergo the 21 day program in India. When the Ilahinoor work started coming through in Turkey, and after
seeing hundreds of people having very genuine experiences similar to what we had seen happen at
Golden City, I began to realize that these cosmic energies were coming through in many different ways all
over the world, and that it was impossible to restrict the flow. People were discovering that once they
were initiated into the morphogenetic field of embodied divinity, they could in turn initiate others who could
continue initiating others, creating a huge chain reaction of awakening. This was exciting to me, because it
meant that we could achieve the critical mass necessary for a collective awakening in a much shorter period
of time.

Question: So do you believe this collective awakening can still happen by 2012?

Answer: Not only can it still happen by 2012 or thereabouts, but I believe it must happen soon if
humanity and the Earth is to survive. This seems to be the consensus of scientists and mystics alike.
Human society has severely disrupted the intricately balanced web of life on Mother Earth, and many
scientists and futurists are quite pessimistic about our chances for long-term survival. If the immense
interrelated problems facing humanity and the Earth today arise from our over-dependence on the dualistic
thinking mind, we cannot solve these problems from the same level. However, as the Mayan calendar
portrays, we are about to shift from a linear experience of time and consciousness to a multi-dimensional
experience of time and consciousness. As we connect with our innate potential as divine humans, the
desired healing and birthing of a new planetary consciousness can take place relatively smoothly and
effortlessly.

Question: So Ilahinoor can be a vehicle for this?

Answer: Yes, along with Deeksha, and along with all the different consciousness-raising techniques
emerging on the planet today. I would suggest that we simply surrender to our higher self to guide the
process, rather than creating expectations about what this should look like. Ultimately it is not the
techniques that are important, but our trust and surrender to the divine force that is awakening within each of
us. The thinking mind can only take us so far, and all identities and belief systems based on this dualistic
level of perception are quickly dissolving. The butterfly is emerging, and it is time to transcend all the
restrictions and limitations of our conditioned minds. It is time to recognize that each of us is a co-creator
with God, and that each of us is necessary to manifest this shared dream of Oneness.
