Om Mandli - The Majestic Spiritual Gathering  Subsequent to these magnificent realizations, Dada started sharing the knowledge with his friends and relatives. When he revealed to them that they were souls, they melted in joy, experiencing God’s Love as it poured directly from Dada’s eyes. As others came in contact with him now, they became transfixed. Men and women, rich and poor, all felt the experience. As if the light of their life was awakened, they became self-realised. They experienced themselves as light. Along with this came peace of mind. Their desires, their vices, dropped away. They began to lead pure lives - pure in eating, drinking, speaking, acting and thinking. In a remarkably short time, God, through Dada, had transformed the lives of all who came close. He educated these souls untiringly, and even as their numbers grew, He gave love like a father, a completely selfless parent, merciful and just. He also showed them rules and methods for making their lives as elevated and as valuable as they could possibly be. God was creating living diamonds. Thus started a unique spiritual gathering , which was named Om Mandli.In short time, the word spread and more and more people started attending. They felt immediately the charged vibrations in the atmosphere, vibrations of warmth and love and power which could not issue from a human being. Both men, women and children who came to the gathering received visions, sometimes of deities, the future establishment of the Golden Age, sometimes of the forthcoming destruction of the impure world of Kaliyuga and of God as an incorporeal point of light. The newcomers did receive extraordinary and blissful experiences, but they thought that Dada was responsible. They did not realize that the Supreme Father Himself was behind this phenomenon, and was speaking to them through Dada’s mouth. Even Dada himself in the beginning wondered how these visions came about. Only later was it clear who was performing in such a miraculous manner. They gradually comprehended that Dada had become the corporeal medium which was being used by God to disseminate His Highest Knowledge. Meeting Dada was unfailingly rewarding experience. His head shone visibly with the light of purity and self-realization. His eyes were filled with spiritual might. It seemed as if rays of light were streaming out of them. To be in his presence was soaked in peace. The coolness of Dada’s mind and senses made others also cool. Dada’s bearing was so royal, and yet his style of living so simple, that one could well imagine him a god in exile, secretly winning again his ancient kingdom of the world. It was no wonder he attracted so many good people to him, who found at last not merely a teacher, but an example of how to live a pure and successful life, a lotus like life, in the muddy pond of this Iron world and yet above it, attached only to God. |
