Foreword –
This article shall be supremely instilled in my memory and heart forever. The lives of the very primitive Rishis from my point of view are not only galvanizing but poignant too. It stirs my Soul to know the scale of their heightened sacrifices and relentless penance they performed to get to know Parmatma in their long endeavours of persistent search and quest in the most hostile geographical and environmental conditions. Nevertheless, they never gave in.
It stirred my consciousness to know from this Sage that despite not getting favorable life conditions and conducive circumstances for many lives without a ray of hope, he continued his quest alone.
He had earnestly sought a Sadguru, a Brahma Gyani Guru, life after life. Until that happened, he waited infinitely. As there was no one to guide him, he took a simple practice of maintaining silence and holding on to bequeathed peace given by God. He only did tapasya of maun and shanti. He waited for God to open the door to His Kingdom for more than indefinitely.
He is recluse, he is inhibited and he is also very gracious. Mercifully he let me know about who he was in the past and in what circumstances he found God.
Part A
Q1 – “Guruvar, we only know you as the second son of Lord Shiva, named Kartikeya or Kartikeyan. You rested finally in South of India in Katargama which is in Sri Lanka today. Can you please shed some light on your very muted past prior to this incarnation?”
A1 – “All my incarnations were filled with innocence and tranquility. I did not desire to covet anything or wish to earn any name or prestige from the very beginning.
My first ever birth was in the very cold Himalayas. It was in today’s Badrinath precinct. In my first life and last life too, I was born on the same land and place, Badrinath. That is why it has been chosen by God as an important teerth sthal.”
Q2 – “My most venerable, honored Swamiji, since I have started following Jyoti Marg consciously from 2016 and more so after I had your vision of virat swaroop just after I visited your samadhi in Katargama in Sri Lanka in the same year, I have been curious and restless to know your past because your life is totally shrouded in mystery. Devotees worship you and swear by you for the multiple divine powers you possess and grant wishes but I wish to know your unknown biography. I want the world to know you. I wish to know about your hardships in doing austerities and penance in search and experiencing the Divine Light with meditation. How did you attain that? With the seamless grace showered upon me by you, one day you had revealed to me that your first ever life on this Earth was in Badrinath Dham. It is a place which I had loved so much during my intensive search of Mahavatar Babaji for whom I visited six times but without luck. I was in an intense search of a Guru who would have guided my path to salvation and introduced me to the Divine Voice within. It was my burning desire to meet him and write a book on his life and the messages to the world on his behalf. Badrinath has always invoked very special energies in my mind from the very beginning.
I was unaware of this truth unless you broke this news to me that in that place were your first and last incarnations. Were you calling me to Badrinath? Have grace on me and please tell me about your very first life in Badrinath. I cannot fathom the penance the Rishis of yore have done in the past in Bharat varsh unless you break your silence and open some pages of your long Soul Journey. Now I perceive Badrinath temple as an edifice of your intense sacrifice, unbelievable resolute and infinite love for Kripa Sindhu Bhagwan, Parmeshwar.”
A2 – “I was born the first time about 87 lakh years ago in the 4th version of the Earth. It was a very tough life; survival was almost impossible. Food was so scarce and the number of people was so few. Snow covered the land most of the time. People were very helpful to each other and life was extremely slow. Penance was next to impossible because there was no guidance or teacher who could have passed on the knowledge of salvation to me. So, I decided to maintain calm and quiet. I practiced shanti and maun.
It was in the 11th Earth that I could get Prabhutva Gyan which means very blazing knowledge. It was approximately 10,000,00 (10 lakh) years ago. I took only 18 births in this time. I was born 17 times in Katargama. My 18th and last birth was in Badrinath but I took samadhi in Katargama. During that time, there were only few homes made mostly of mud. The walls of all the homes were painted with white color for visibility at night. To cross the river in the jungles, in rare cases a human became a bridge so that one or two men could cross over his back in dire needs. Other wise, logs of wood were used to cross the rivers which were full of water. We kept oxen and cows as our cattle for farming and sustenance. Wood was used as our fuel and water was taken from rivers.
The breakthrough came after suffering at the hands of climatic changes, extreme geographical tribulations due to God’s wish. I died due to excess cold weather at the age of 32.5 years only in Badrinath in my first ever incarnation. But before dying, I made a resolution that I will continue my spiritual journey with penance in the next life immediately without wasting any time. In the 11th Earth before taking samadhi, I asked God to fulfill my one wish that I will never again be born in a body in this world for a valid reason. I was born for the first time 87 lakh years ago in the 4th version of the Earth. I got the highest attainment in the 11th version of this Earth after 74,35,392 years. (Seventy-four lakh, thirty-five thousand, three hundred and ninety-two) I said that I will never again cast a body since it took me so long to attain the highest knowledge.”
Q3 – “Pujyavar, ati adarniya Swamiji, shat shat pranam. I reverently bow to you a hundred times. Please tell me about your tapasya. Was your last birth as Kartikeya or Kartikeyan in India?”
A3 – “I was born the first time about 87,000,00 years ago (Eighty-seven lakh) in the 4th Earth . In the 11th Earth, about 10,000,00 (ten lakh) years ago, I decided not to return after getting Prabhutva Gyan, that is blazing enlightenment. But God asked me to return as it was His wish. I reincarnated as Lord Shiva and Parvati’s second son but did not speak a word to any. I only liked to meditate and know the Wish of God and His inspirations in the form of vibrations. The Himalayas were a perfect place but death was inevitable due to harsh weather and lack of amenities. That was my last time as a human being. My tapasya fal of Kartikeya in which I travelled from Badrinath to Katargama on foot was the most tiring and hard to achieve. To save my life, I was asked by my parents to go Southwards towards warmer regions to continue to live.
The place that you have visited three times is where my samadhi is. I was last born in the 13th version of the Earth 1,00,035 years ago. (One lakh and thirty-five years) I migrated from Badrinath to Katargama on foot. Sometimes I used an ox when I could not walk more. Parmeshwar wanted me to go to Katargama for several reasons. At that time, Sri Lanka was joined with the land mass of Bharat.
Reasons of my reincarnation one last time. Five to be exact.
- Katargama was already sanctified by Vishwakarma Rishi who walked for one year from Madagascar, Africa to Sri Lanka on foot after seeing the Light of God in his third eye in samadhi as a young boy. He was invited by God to do meditation and settle in Katargama permanently. He went there in the 2nd Earth. It was 1,02,36,000 (1 crore 2 lakh 36 thousand) years ago in the 1st Earth that a very advanced society in Bharat in the South called Kumari Kaantam or Kumari Kandam started degenerating. It began to sink in the sea slowly. It took approximately 3,50,000 years (Three lakh, fifty thousand) for India to separate and become two continents, India and Africa. He had total 6 lives in Madagascar. In his 6th life 97,00000 years ago (ninety-seven lakh) he came to Katargama and lived a long life of austerities, silence, peace and sacrifice. He is the first human being to do yatra, migrate from one place to another in search of God and do penance. Hence, he is very exclusive.
- Vishwamitra Rishi was also sent there in the 3rd Earth. He went into very deep silence and wished to only bring down Light in the world. He too maintained silence and hardly spoke. His place of penance has great restorative mental powers for a sadhak to start thinking of very constructive and uplifting thoughts.
- I was sent there in the 13th Earth because it was preeminent that Kaliyug this time would be very ghastly. It was God’s plan to spread vibrations of beatific peace and tranquility before the unprecedented violence, mayhem and unrest of modern day took place in the world.
4. You were called there three times for three missions.
a) In 2009, to garner the power of will and limitless power to think and do actions – vichar shakti, kriya shakti.
b) In 2013, to remove any possible shred of desire in the future which would have culminated due to the floating thoughts of desires of maximum people.
c) In 2016, to give you regenerative energies by us for you to know, follow, teach and blossom Jyoti Marg principles. I did Shakti Paat for this reason and purpose. I was successful.
Your 3 missions are –
a) Discovering and dispensing Jyoti Marg.
b) Teach others this Golden Path through discourses, counsel and communications.
c) Document our lives, accumulated knowledge in the sky and books about us for posterity. Re-write old, lost scriptures in the modern times.
That was my last time as a tapasvi in Katagama. My tapasya fal of Kartikeya in which I travelled from Badrinath to Katargama on foot was the most tiring and hard to stay alive.
- My tapas in Katargama will be available for next one lakh years from 16th Sept 2016. People must use those regenerative powers to discover their souls and redeem their conscience.”
Part B
Q4 – “Param pujya Swamiji, my thirst of knowing is unstoppable. Please give me some more spiritual knowledge about our future. What kind of future is there for Bharat, the land of tapasvis, acharyas, sadhus and Rishis.”
A4 – “India is the only Hindu country in the world and will always be. No other religion has the power to influence the mind and turn it towards God. Sanatan Dharma is eternal because of Dhyana, Yoga, Tapa, Shanti, Dharma and Shastras. The Rishis wrote uncountable scriptures, 4 Vedas, 18 Puranas and many other spiritual works and commentaries. Those scriptures have Light of God in them. Sanatan Dharma is hidden in these scriptures but covered up because God did not give permission to reveal in an elaborate manner. Today in the worst time of Kaliyug, you will sieve all the scriptures, condense them, crystallize in your brain and write many books to give a summary to the world about how to lay the foundation of a Divine Life, what is the Path of transformation, who are the Rishis, why we must do Yoga, Pranayam, why peace and brotherhood are the two pillars on which humanity will survive.
Your role is very challenging and difficult. You will keep a low profile as time is limited. You must work all your life as your mission is to regenerate the world with our divine energies.
Many cruel kings during the medieval time of history who wished to become world emperors and subjugate Bhartiyas, sabotaged the conservation and preservation plans of God. They destroyed so many of the Hindu and Buddhist Universities and temples like – Takshila, Nalanda, Kashi Vishwa Vidayala, Sharda Peeth, Martand Surya Mandir, Ajanta Ellora caves, Konark Sun temple and so many others. They broke and destroyed many temples of importance and prosperity. The temples in Bharat have divine energies embedded in them which are released occasionally for the betterment of the society. They are usually on a land where some positive and pious thoughts have built up or on specific places where the penance of sadhu, rishi or saint has been stored.
The reason of Bharat being invaded and terrorized –
The project of preservation and conservation of God was sabotaged because some Indian kings at the frontier were corrupt and liars, full of vices. They compromised their territory with the invaders and told the world that we lost the battle. The Afghans were always attacking India and the Indian kings allowed them secretly so that their lives were saved and they did not have to fight a battle. They wanted a comfortable life.
Today the word Dharma nirpekshata is obsolete. Religions are being used to fulfill political and personal goals with very far-reaching disadvantages and misery for the people in the world.
Remember today in this phase of history, two most important things to do for you for your culture, religion and identities. For survival two things are very important for you.
a) Protect and preserve your scriptures and heritage. Preserve every word, document and knowledge received through Rishis. Preserve every word, document, line and bit of knowledge that we give you, my daughter. Understand it is a herculean task, nonetheless it will never be transferred or downloaded again from God’s memory in akash. The reason is – only during the deepest crisis does God allow all the secrets, laws and predictions, even kundli, an astrological chart of countries, people, world and India to unwrap for us.
b) Protect and preserve your body, mind and Soul. Practice Yoga, Dhyana and Pranayam and read at least one post or some excerpts of Jyoti Marg manuscripts as posts and make your sadhana and tapas firm and stable. Or else time is very turbulent, you will lose some parts of earned tapas in the crossfire of evil and good.
India is and will always remain a Hindu Rashtra. It is the collective consciousness of many evil people in the world who want it to be of some other religion. This is their collective thought. You all must fight and diffuse this big cloud of evil intention looming large. Break this bubble and infuse sankalpa shakti in your mind, country and people and rise and fight the dragon, the monster that was born a few hundred years ago. The desire was to dominate the world. In a span of three years after heated verbal confrontation, deadly conflict and nonstop violence from one side, the victory will be of Dharma, shanti, tapa and manavata.”
Q5 – “My Holy Master, I humbly prostrate at your divine feet. Please tell me more about the power of our thoughts. I wish to continue doing its sadhana lifelong. Out of your total only 395 lives, you have done great penance in 295 lives of sankalpa shakti. How is the mind built with the power of our thoughts? It is your forte. Bless us so that we repair our broken minds, our weak, poor and fragile or contaminated minds and empower it with the power of God’s energies with His will and wish.
God’s wish has embedded energy in them. May our minds be forever connected with the Universal Mind of God called Hiranyagarbha, the womb of God where all the compassionate and benevolent thoughts of God as vibrations are saved.”
A5 – “The mind is everything. It has the power of creating anything that we wish or imagine. However, unless we have benevolent thoughts, we must not create substantially as it might harm people or ourselves in the future sometime or they may go waste in the atmosphere and serve no purpose.
My 395th and last incarnation was in Katargama, Sri Lanka. I decided that time never to return to the Earth as I wished to save time and work for everyone whosoever invoked me for redemption and spiritual progress.
About one lakh years ago as Kartikeya, after my penance was over, I submitted to Parmeshwar requesting, “Give my penance to a woman, may she get advantage of it with which she can benefit herself and be helped. Parmeshwar replied, “What you have earned with so much hardship and several difficulties, you wish to give that to a woman? If that is your wish, then listen carefully. In the future, there is a remote possibility of only one woman who will have the potential of receiving this penance as a blessing for herself from Me. For her, I may retain your penance. In case she will undergo steep and very hard penance and sacrifices in Vishesh Kaliyug, in such a typical case she will give the benefit of your penance for the welfare of this world.”
“Therefore, an eclipse which came from 16th Sept 2016 contained all my virtuous deeds for regenerating this world. In that year you travelled to Katargama, my last resting place.”
Q6 – “Pujya Atmagyani, param dayalu, Rishivar, what is the importance of Shree Badrinath Dham and its significance for genuine seekers of God?”
A6 – “Whoever wishes to gain the knowledge of God and get Moksha will have to at least once come to Badrinath. Such is the vardaan, blessing given to me by Parmeshwar for waiting endlessly for the wholesome realization of His divine nature and properties. You have come to me not once or twice but seven times in this life time alone. You have come five times before in some other incarnations in difficult situations also. In the precinct of Shri Badrinath Dham, once you even laid your life about five thousand years ago. You died in that life due to the cold weather on your yatra in the Himalayas but with a resolute affirmation. You vowed silently before dying when death was near. You wanted to reincarnate as a tapasvi and yogi. You affirmed and made a pledge under the sky in the evening and died after that. You said to yourself after beseeching God – “Life is never complete and satisfying without sacrifice, love, compassion and charity even if we have large kingdoms and territories.” You have been living the afterlives with these affirmations sincerely.
I bless you for writing about me and telling the world for the first time about me and how I reached the kingdom of God with so much anguish and torment. I will now permanently stay in my divine home in the astral sky above my samadhi in Katargama, 950 kilometers above it. It has a name – Shanti Vilas, a place of peace and joy. I did not want a Home over Badrinath because Adi Shankaracharya’s space is close by. His very powerful thoughts are embedded in the lake near the temple besides world’s some very noble affirmations and wishes for its welfare as thoughts and vibrations. He will help humanity from North India while I will do so from south of India. One day Sri Lanka will again be a part of India with its land mass joining it but after 36 lakh years from now.
For the hardships and fatigue encountered by you for writing our biographies incessantly, I bless you today 23.06.23 at 2.23 pm. Your mind shall not only do Astral Voyages in meditation to very far off orbits chosen by God for you to know us and our other pious activities. On the contrary, henceforth your mind shall be able to co-exist in two places at the same time side by side as if you reside in two houses simultaneously for a short while. You shall even be able to switch from one site to another immediately with a flow. It will be to gather more hidden information about us, our past activities related to our intense tapasya and flawlessly document them for the world to know about it. The two places will be – Hiranya Garbha and Vishwa Sanchita. They are – Universal Mind, the Womb of God from all His thoughts and wishes emerge to manifest in the world and the Universal Bank, repository, the RAM in which the karmas, impressions of past and future lives of all the people are saved and recorded respectively.
Secondly, I give you Vishwa Darshan – This means you can travel to any part of the world with your very quiet and serene mind. You will get to see in your divinized mind what happened in the past on that land and to its people due to their actions and thoughts performed either now or in the past. Their history chunks shall be revealed to you to understand the evolution of our Earth, people, countries, and the events that led to today’s complex problems in the world; the truth will be out.
Ultimately, my dear child, I give you the vardaan, blessing of Shunya Sangrahit Dhyana because of which the world will benefit a lot.
When I was in Sri Lanka, I meditated for 3 years and 7 months in Nuwara Eliya one lakh years ago. This is the same place where Mata Sita was kept in Ashok Vatika by Ravana. Today there is a temple of Rama which you have visited two times in 2009 and 2013. I sanctified this place so that in future many people can generate restorative powers when they will be faced with unbearable harmful and unholy energies forcing them to give up a virtuous life.
In meditation you are in shunya, a state of total silence and oneness with God. When you meditate, join your mind with mine. I will also be in shunya. Vishwamitra Maharishi will also be in the same state. Three great minds will bring down the Light of God on Earth to bring peace and harmony. Bring Light of God in every cell of your body and mind.
We shall meditate in the early hours before a very special event on the Earth. They could be days of collective prayers, resolutions for the betterment of the society, or stopping the world and the Earth from degenerating to an alarming level. Your good karmas are humongous. Whatever you pray or wish for such matters will be acknowledged by God. Their sins will be forfeited with pious deeds of ours. It is your heartfelt desire that killings and violence for selfish ends must stop. Presently, these people do not know that they are doing pernicious actions which are detrimental to themselves and the whole world. By doing so, their most vital nadi, Sushumna becomes dormant for many ages. They continue to do wrongful activities. Slowly, the network of their nadis or channels in which the prana flows becomes convoluted, bizarre, unintelligible due to their confounded configuration and layout. It then becomes permanent due to their repeated actions on the same pattern. In some benevolent moments, this cycle is broken as God’s mercy and benevolence and grace is bestowed through a Guru or a Holy Master on such people.
In about five centuries from now, many such people will on their own look for peace and rest for minds after leading many lives as perpetrators and mischief makers. They will turn their mind inward eventually to seek that silence and peace of mind – maun and shanti!”

Meditation in Katargama, Sri Lanka in March 2016. The place has lingering vibrant energies of three ancient great Rishis.

How to seek perfect Peace inside?
———————————————–
God’s powers in us are many; we have never yet encountered and have not paid heed to it subsequently.
The stalwart meditators have traveled deep and far into those territories where the profound mysteries of the perplexing mind are unfolded mysteriously.
It takes great effort to search the crevices, it demands patience to wait endlessly till God decides to reveal to you more than you already know.
It depends on God how He wishes to tell and how far He wants to take on the infinite path that the meditator wishes to explore exponentially.
Those who can wait patiently, those who can persist can know, faith endless is needed; faith unshaken that God will always be graceful and is full of kindness; this principle shall never be repealed.
Great jewels are never procured with ease; mammoth discoveries are never earned without turmoil, sweat and faith in one self.
Similarly, great revelations by God come with immense faith, love, devotion and constant vigilance.
God’s gentle hints are like small murmurs, if the mind wanders or loses interest, the small bubble of murmur may disintegrate and become asunder.
God tests us if we really care to listen to him at the slightest provocation that He utters.
He puts a price tag on every jewel that he gives us for He knows that the brilliant gems are so rare to find and procure by anyone.
&
Little do we understand that each step that we take shapes our future, it creates many opportunities to scale new heights and if fallen into darkness, our mind can create many lives of hell unseen.
What is required of us is constant vigil, permanent pious life, daily meditation to tranquil and calm the mind.
The mind is a storehouse of all possibilities, it is a powerhouse of ignition, it is unique because what we first imagine takes shape in this mind.
What ever thought is first born is born out of an imagination that is fathomed and fashioned inside the mind at the outset.

Pranams Ma, Maun and Shanti with Positive Sankalp for Global Well Being…key learnings
My pranams Mataji.
Dearest Maa,
Deep prostrations to you and Swami Karthikeyan! The last two posts on this blog are extra-ordinary. They are really elevating our consciousness, expanding our mind’s concept of time and most importantly helping us understand the core teachings of our Gurus better (as we are able to see how they led their lives by example)
– In no scripture, have we heard/read about Swami Karthikeyan in so much detail. We are truly indebted to you for bringing down this sacred knowledge about his soul journey and grateful for his mercy to finally open up to the world.
– I have always wondered why Swamiji is so special and worshipped with so much devotion and fervor in southern India. This monumental post will help the world understand his ascension from a Yogi to God.
– It is astonishing to know the level of perseverance and faith that Murugan Swami had for 74,35,392 years to achieve Prabhutva Gyan.
– It is quite depressing to know how our dear Gurus had to endure such a tough life (because of harsh climatic conditions). Albeit, very inspiring to see how they didn’t let even death deter them on their quest to reach Parmeshwar
– Now, I am able to understand why Maun and Shanthi are the two main tenets of Jyoti Marg
– So many of my questions got answered about Swamiji’s connection with Badrinath, Palani and Kataragama.
– I had the good fortune of visiting Ashok Vatika in Nuwara Eliya along with my family in 2008 and we could feel that there was something special about that place. Now we know why!
– Just reading the name of his abode “Shanti Vilas” sparks joy and peace in us. This point also helps solve the mystery as to why there is such a strong connection between Swami Karthikeyan and south India.
– The Jyoti Marg timeline is also emerging beautifully, where the jigsaw pieces are coming together slowly and we are able to start getting a glimpse of Parmeshwar’s beautiful master plan. It is very intriguing to learn how the soul journey of these Nitya Jyots are inter-twined such that they take incarnations at strategic points on different earths, live their lives entirely by will of Parmeshwar and do pilgrimages to same holy sites (for eg: Katargama) to charge them with positive vibrations for ages to come.
– Swamiji’s guidance for us is very clear
1) “Protect your scriptures and heritage. Preserve every word, document and knowledge received through Rishis. Preserve every word, document, line and bit of knowledge that we give you, my daughter.”
2) “Protect your body, mind and Soul”
With lots of gratitude and reverence,
Ragu
Dear Ragu, you said – In no scripture, have we heard/read about Swami Karthikeyan in so much detail. We are truly indebted to you for bringing down this sacred knowledge about his soul journey and grateful for his mercy to finally open up to the world….. As I read your comment, at this stage I recalled Bhishma mitamaha during the Mahabharat war when he said that even if he has to submit all the lives’ punyas to be able to hear just one counsel or a word of gyan of Shri Krishna which he is bestowing on Arjuna with the waft of air, he would happily donate them. I say the same. Even if I have given all my punyas for just this one article, I have no regrets. Reason – I saw and know the devotion, faith devotees have for Swamiji in Palani and Katargama. But my heart always yearned to know who he was because without doing penance, such miracles do not happen. People’s sufferings are not eradicated. God heard my prayer and I came to know about Swamiji and his hardships during his search for God realization. His biography itself is a very big inspiration for all humanity. Today I got an inspiration. To write one book with the Title ‘The Long Search’ and to write about Swamiji’s infinite search for Truth and Oneness with God as its content. We know that many people are in search of something. It takes time to get that. But has anyone heard of this type of longing, search, endurance and faith? He shines very brightly in the Sky in the galaxy for his infinite longing for God. I say this because I know what true sadhaks go through sometimes. So much pull is there in God’s love. If it wasn’t so, why will anyway even try for 87,000 lakh years??? We must be so pure, innocent and loving in the heart that a firm bond is made with God like Swamiji had. He is our role model, I am sure.
With my blessings to you and all those who are reading this blog with true faith and sincerity. Yours Maa.
Dearest Maa,
Thank you for your reply. We are really looking forward to Swamiji’s biography titled ‘The Long Search’!
Thanks,
Ragu
Dear Sarika Ma,
Great post and Great message. In fact I think messages for human brotherhood and peace is the need of the day as Russia-Ukraine war is raging and it’s repercussions are felt all over the world. In India also, we have very disturbing news about violence from Manipur and Punjab. Somehow I have felt very close to Karthikeya Swami after my visit to Palani temple and climb over the Hills there. In Tamilnadu I think Lord Karthikeya is better known as ‘Palani Aandavan’ or ‘Vel Murugan’. Murugan Swami, I think is the most revered God in the State of Tamilnadu. Recently I read a post by a lady which describes how her daughter’s severe eye problem was cured with the grace of Murugan Swami after she climbed Palani Hills 11 times during a single day. Devotees undertake such immense hardships. Such is the faith in Karthikeya Swami for lot of devotees.
with regards,
Jerry.
