JIBANKRISHNA OR DIAMOND THE HOLY GHOST AND MY DIARY OF DIVINE DREAMS

Chapter 7

                     

FORECAST ABOUT MY FUTURE BY SRI RAMKRISHNA

20)   3^rd September, 1972,  At noon I had a dream—A known monk of Sri Ramkrishna order had come to our house .After some conversations he told me, ‘Sri Ramkrishna Deva told me through a dream that after entering the College, you will have non-addiction of woman and wealth’. Here the dream suddenly went off.

[Diamond used to term Atman Visualization as matriculation pass in the spiritual world. Accordingly, the seer, after visualization of Atman (dream no 20) has passed matriculation examination and is going to enter College life. 

Detachment of woman and wealth means the seer will have no addiction for these two in his future life.]

GOD-THE-PRECEPTOR’S  BLESSINGS  FALL  ON  THE  SEER

21)    16^th September, 1972. 

Early morning dream:  I was standing alone on a place. Suddenly a serpent jumped on my back and sticking all alone my spinal cord gradually opened her fan on my head. Without any fear I stood still. And then the serpent moved away and jumped on the ground in front of me.

After this incident I went to Diamond and saw a number of devotees seated around him. I felt that I went to him after a long gap. One of the devotees was reading Gospel of Sri Ramkrishna and Diamond was giving explanations as he used to do in his lifetime.

Diamond was seated on his cot and I also sat on the floor in front of him. After a while Diamond started conversation with me.

Me –See, as I did my Ph. D. course, so I was deprived of your company and missed such a great phenomenon.

Diamond—No, No, my boy! It is good that you have got a footing.

Me—When I used to come to you long time back, I was a bit immatured. I could not under- stand you and your sayings.

Diamond—See, it matters little. You know that you were a teenager at that time and it is a natural habit for that age. Don’t worry for that.

Meanwhile I noticed that everybody was leaving the room one by one. Diamond came down from his cot and sat on the floor in front of me. He was looking very joyous. I thought that I had been chatting with him for such a long time, let me tell him that I was incapable of doing meditation. But I felt very uneasy to beg something from him as this was my natural habit in reality also.

Another thought came in my mind that he had expired 5 years ago, but looking so joyous and rejuvenated! Moreover I was having him in front of me, so why should I need meditation?

Then I told him, ‘so long I did not come to you, I should never do such mistake. The Puja holiday is knocking at the doo, I shall come to you at noon and stay full time’. He gave a sweet smile and said, ‘Yes you do that’. The dream was then off.

[The first scene indicated that kundalini, in the form of snake is awakened within the seer.

The second scene indicated that all the happenings happened in the real life of the seer are being wiped out by God-the-Preceptor from the seer’s mind through consolation.]

TEACHINGS  OF  GOD-THE-PRECEPTOR

AND  NARRATION  OF  PREVIOUS  DREAM  WITHIN  A  DREAM

22)   6^th December, 1972, Wednesday .  

Early morning dream :  I had gone to Howrah town (adjacent to Calcutta where Diamond used to reside) . But with a great surprise, I noticed that most of the old buildings had been demolished substituted by new ones. Everything was looking attractive with lakes, gardens, modern architectural buildings . I went on thinking that henceforth I should stay here permanently.

However, I also noticed that the lane where one of my friend Nisith (who took me to Diamond in reality) used to reside became widened and I was sitting in a Doctor’s Chamber just at the entrance of the lane (in reality it was so). Suddenly I saw that Diamond came and sat beside me. I began to read Gospel of Sri Ramkrishna so that he could hear it : I had also some conversations with him in between reading. Diamond looked very joyous and I felt very happy seeing him after a long gap . But I was feeling guilty for having a long gap of meeting him (which happened in reality). So I asked him, ‘well, since I left you, you must have  forgotten me’ !

Diamond—What are you saying! Why should I not remember you!

Me—You have never seen me within you in trance, then I am not your close associate!

Diamond—Oh, No! No! Who said this to you!

While saying these to me, he continued patting on my body. Meanwhile he went out to the corridor. I kept sitting holding the book in my hand. Suddenly I noticed that my elder brother was also seated  there  However, I thought that before Diamond’s departure, I should pay my salute on his feet . But at this moment suddenly I woke up and thought that the dream remained incomplete. Let me sleep again to see the last part of my dream and so I slept again and saw in the dream that Diamond again had come to me in the same place as before. This time he was standing on the corridor (as he did in the previous dream) and continued our conversations.

Me—You know that I had a dream. Diamond came forward and said, ‘Say , what you have dreamt’. I narrated the same dream seen in my first dream and asked, ‘well, is this dream signifying my reflection of mind’? With a smiling face he said, ‘I shall say something to you’. But he did not say anything and went away. The dream went off.

[Firstly, the dream was a corroboration of the serial number 811 of the Bengali book ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’ written by Diamond based on his personal reflections . (Vide dream no 5).

Secondly, this was the first experience in dream where I narrated the previous scene in the next one.]

WILL  RECEIVED  FROM  GOD-THE-PRECEPTOR

23)   9^th December, 1972.  Saturday.  Early morning dream:  I had gone to Diamond at Kadamtala, Howrah. He was then seated on his cot. I entered into the room and sat on the floor. There were many other devotees sitting on floor. Conversations were going on. Later on all except one went away. That person was unknown to me. Diamond came down from his cot and sat on the floor in front of me. Then he took a piece of paper and told me to sign on the paper. It seemed as if he wanted to make a will for the seer. However, I signed on the paper. But it seemed to be a bit wetly and soft. Diamond asked me, ‘can you take a good dictation’? I said, ‘Yes’. He then started giving dictation in English and I also started writing: with a hard pencil . I noticed that the unknown person was sitting, there as if he was the witness.

I said to Diamond, ‘How wonderful is your English’! But I noticed that due to softness of the paper, the writing seemed to be hazy. Diamond began to scold me for this. So I told him, ‘It is a hard pencil, that’s why it is hazy. Wait, let me bring a pen’. But suddenly I woke up and thought, ‘Oh! This is an incomplete dream, let me sleep again to see the last. So I again slept  and said to myself in the dream that I had already completed taking the dictation with a pen .

Scene changed. I was now seeing that God-the-Preceptor and I was living together in a house and I was taking advice from him though nothing could be remembered after dream.

At the last moment in the dream I observed that he was going to take a bath. After completing the bath he wore clothes putting off his towel. I asked him, ‘Have you taken bath’? He said, ‘Yes’, I told him,’ then I am now going to take my bath. And I went to take my bath. Here the dream went off.

[The dream is very significant as this indicates that in future many realizations of Diamond will be experienced by the seer. Will is given to son by father. It means that all the wealth of father will be enjoyed by his son .Here wealth means spiritual wealth.]

Dakshineswar and other places.

(Henceforth Shri Ramkrishna will be spoken of as Thakur” when required as it is so done in the Gospel )

539. “It is so, that a pearl oyster is in readiness for the rain coming down from the star ‘Swati’. It takes a drop of rain, dives deep in the fathomless ocean, stops there until the pearl grows”.

Pearl – is Atman.

Oyster – is the cerebrum.

 with Nirguna Brahma.

The drop of the rain in the form of God’s grace comes out in the proper time as Atman, and it is shown by God-the-Preceptor. The first and foremost thing is to obtain the grace of God and it comes spontaneously. A real aspirant sees such rainfall many a time in his life and it denotes that more and more grace is coming upon him.

Grace should be looked upon as spontaneous. It makes a man – Universalle-La’-Homme.

It becomes the true insignia of grace, as Universalism is the summum bonum.

540. “Whom God makes great, let him live in a forest but he shall be known to many”.

Yes, it is so. God is in every being and in man He manifests in a degree.

God in a man will appear in the form of the very same man whom He wants to be made known i.e. publicity. It is a wonder, in its connection, vide our ‘Preface’ and furthermore it signifies that the man has become God or attained Godhead.

541. “The flowers bloom in the dense forest and the bees search and find them out”.

The saying has got two aspects. One is ‘Individualism’ and the other is ‘Universalism’.

1) Individualism – Thakur is at Dakshineswar and the devotees flock there.

(a) Thakur is flower

(b) The devotees are bees.

2) Universalism –

(a) When a man attains Godhood, He becomes a bee.

(b) The devotees are flowers.

Flowers are seen to bloom by the aspirants in the seventh plane and in the seventh plane of the devotees this Universal Man or Paramatman or Parama Purusha or Paramahansa – in its true yogic sense, i.e. the shape of a person who will be seen within by thousands appears.

It is said in the Vedas that Brahma in order to taste His own sweetness has become many. The devotees are many and God is but One. So devotees are flowers and God is a bee.

Forest – is this human body and this simile is current from the days of yore.

INDICATION OF PUBLICITY OF MY DREAMS IN FUTURE

14)  23^rd, June, 1972,  Friday .   Early morning dream:  My friend Nisith, younger sister Prakriti and younger brother Malay and I went out for a walk. While walking, I was narrating my dreams to Nisith and here the dream went off.

[The dream was revealed to me thus : Prakriti is the symbol of Nature , Malay denotes gentle breeze and Nisith means nirguna or dark which means infinite . My dreams will remain in dark and in due course of time these will spread like a gentle breeze in nature or in the world.

After 20 years my dreams are being published in Bengali magazine and after 38years being translated is published in different websites.]

ACCOMPANY WITH GOD-THE-PRECEPTOR

          

15)   24^th  June , 1972 ,  Saturday ,  Early morning dream :  I had gone to Diamond and saw someone reading Gospel of Sri Ramkrishna . In between reading conversation was also going on. Devotees were coming and going . One known lady was also seen in the crowd. She was seated along with others on open corridor outside the room.

As soon as I saw the lady, it appeared in my mind that when woman folks began to come, Diamond might not be alive more.

However, Diamond seemed to be very bright. After a while when I bowed down to him with great devotion he patted my head and body with great affection and here the dream went off.

[In this dream the seer was being blessed by God-the- Preceptor and afterwards a great peace persisted in his mind.]

GOD-THE-PRECEPTOR PUTS HIS QUALITIES ON THE SEER

                                  

16) July 15, 1972.  One early morning when I was just waking up with half consciousness , I felt that someone was lying on my body longitudinally putting his whole body weight on me, I got a bit chilled as it was so vivid, but did not move . When ultimately I got back my full consciousness, I was surprised and thought, Ah! It was Diamond himself who was lying on me and for nothing I got nervous!

[This was a very significant dream indicating my future when many of the qualities of God-the-Preceptor will penetrate me in future.]

THE DOOR TO 7^TH PLANE IS OPENED

                           

17)   July 17, 1972.   While traveling in a bus I experienced a realization in a trance --- a one storied building with a gate on the right side for entry to the house. There I saw a woman standing at the gate with her two hands kept on the gate as if she was the keeper of the door. She had long hair, complexion not so fair with very large eyes.

I was thinking that she might be a Tantrik. Suddenly I saw with my surprise that she allowed me to enter the house. As soon as I entered into a room, I noticed, a 7—8 years girl with long heirs up to her feet was leaving that room . Then my trance went off.

[The trance signifies thus: Unless the Holy Mother or this body allows , One cannot enter the 7^th plane to see God or ‘ Atman’. There is a possibility that in future the seer may visualize ‘ Atman’ or ‘Self’ .

INDICATION OF RAJYOGA

18)  July 20,  1972.   

At noon one day I had a dream. Swami Vivekananda was seated on a cot, His head was clean shaved. I was also seated in front of him  though, without conversation. Meanwhile the dream went off.

[Here Swami  Vivekananda means Rajyoga . The dream indicates that the seer will have Rajyoga within him in future.]

(Note- It came true.)

VISUALIZATION OF ATMAN OR GREAT SOUL

19)   27^th August, 1972. Sunday.  

Early morning dream --- I was in a room seated on the floor for meditation. A wooden platform of small size was kept in front of me .I fell in meditation for a while within the dream. The meditation suddenly went off and I saw a small lump of divine light in the shape of a curved thumb gradually moving upward from the platform and fixed in air in front of my eyes. Then the scene vanished.

In the next scene I saw myself inside a room adjacent to the previous room seen in the first scene. It was packed with quite a number of people. One unknown person among them told me ‘You have seen your father’s Atman’. Here the dream went off.

[The divine light in the shape of curved thumb has been mentioned in Upanishads as Atman or Soul, which was visualized by the seer. Father’s Atman means the Atman seen by the primordial man on earth some thousands and thousands of years ago. Vedic Rishis used to visualize God in their dreams in the form of their father and so they always used the term ‘Father’. Here unknown person denotes God who is always unknown except His grace. Plat- form symbolizes the cerebrum where God is seen.

This dream is the confirmation of the previous dream seen on July-August, 1972 (dream no 17). The visualization of the Soul or Atman or God in the form of light is described in Maitri Upanishad ( 6.38) like this-

“Of size of thumb or span within the body,

A light of twofold or threefold brightness,

This Brahma who is being praised,

The Great God – He has entered in all beings”!]

(Henceforth Shri Ramkrishna will be spoken of as Thakur” when required as it is so done in the Gospel )

537. “Why so? Can’t you sleep without the smell of the fish-basket? Once, at night, a fish-wife became a guest at the house of a gardener. She was lodged to sleep in the room where flowers were stored and she could not lull herself to sleep. She commenced fidgeting. The flower-maid marked it and asked, ‘Hello! What’s up? What keeps you awake’? The fish-wife replied, ‘Well mummy, this smell of the flowers hinders the sleep. Can’t you get me my fish-basket’? Then a little water was sprinkled on the fish-basket, it gave off smell of fish and she fell fast asleep”.

Fish-basket – The lower zone of the three planes: –

a) Organ of evacuation,

b) Organ of generation,

c) and the navel.

It is the head-quarter of Tama-Guna which denotes dullness and inertia. One of the foremost insignia of Tamas is heavy sleep.

Fish-wife – is Avidyamaya or the Maya of ignorance. In some cases she assumes form and is seen by the aspirants.

Guest – Ego or ‘I’.

House – temple or church or mosque or synagogue – the human body.

Gardener – God in the body. Sri Krishna is called the gardener of the forest, Vanamali, and Vana is forest, i.e. body. It is so compared as ‘I’ in the body has lost his way in the forest. It is only the Gardener’s grace which can set a man aright and lead one in the right path.

Room where flowers were stored – It is the seventh plane or the cerebrum and here only divinity reigns Supreme – Sattva-Guna.

Flowers – Cells in the brain – they are so seen by the aspirants. Flowers of various kinds are seen and it expresses divinity occupying the cells in place of the animality. Lotus is the best insignia and then comes rose.

Could not lull herself to sleep – When one reaches the seventh plane Sattva Guna prevails and he loses sleep.

Flower-maid – Vidyamaya – the Maya of knowledge.

Water – (here in the metaphor) indicates Pranamaya Kosha where Life Power at the outset is seen like bluish gurgling water. The test is that one comes down to the lower zone where Tama-Guna pervades and the outcome is sound sleep.

Of course there is another rough sense that runs in the under-current of the metaphor. Sri Keshab has got his wife and he will get a sleep in the company of his wife.

Saturday, December 10, 1881.

538. “Now you see, it is due to her undivided devotion to her man-the-preceptor she saw Narayana (God with form and with four hands – a creation of imagination) and she showed Narayana to the Guru (Preceptor)”.

It is not the seeing of God.

It is a realization of the sixth plane.

Even in the case, God took pity to her earnest yearning, gave His grace and the realization of the sixth plane came upon her and she in her turn, gave her grace to the preceptor and he also saw Narayana.

The episode of the widow with the pot of endless curd and her guru bears a different character.

Thakur’s version runs thus: it is Guru, God-the-Preceptor, who shows the disciple his (disciple’s) Ishta – or an imaginary form of God and merges into the form. No guru or man-the-preceptor can do it.

Here it reveals that of one makes a man-guru then it turns out that the disciple may see Ishta – God-with-Form (if God takes pity and gives His grace) and if he (disciple) gives his grace to the preceptor then the guru may see the Ishta. In other words, the disciple becomes guru and man-the-preceptor takes the place of the disciple. Rather, it is a warning to the ‘gurus’ that being a man if you play the role of a guru, then your fate is sealed; nay, you are doomed.

There is no man to play the role of a Guru in the Universalism as it is ‘One and Oneness’. Very simple and plain is the method. A man becomes Brahma through spontaneity; numberless people will see Him within and become ‘One’ with ‘Him’ in the Atmic (spiritual) sphere and the ‘seeing of Him’ also comes automatically. A mango tree is grown. Not only the owner enjoys the mangoes but thousand others enjoy the mangoes.

Shower of  blessings  of  God—First  experience

on  merging  of  dream  and  reality – Realization of Vedanta 

11) May 22, 1972. 

Early morning I saw in a dream that there was a heavy shower which continued for a long time. I woke up for a moment and though that it was really raining outside and so I decided to sleep again. After a while, when I woke up again saw with surprise that there was no sign of rain outside. The dream was so vivid.

[(a) Here the shower signifies the blessings of God which was showered upon the seer .  (b) The seer experienced the merging of dream and reality. This has a reference in Upanishads that both dream and reality are identical.]     

Realization  as  per  the  book  ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti

12) 4^th June, 1972, Sunday.

What was felt during my dream was realized after I woke up. I felt that for the whole night God-the-Preceptor held my hand and both roamed here and there.

[This realization was mentioned by Sri Ramkrishna as, ‘God-the-Preceptor is as if a companion, holding the hand of the devotee and roam’. This is also mentioned in the Bengali book’ Dharma-O-Anubhuti’ written by Diamond like this—God appears to the devotee as God-the-Preceptor and roam with him holding hand (vide dream no 5) ]

Realization  as  per  the  book  ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’--

Dream  and  Reality  are  identical – Realization of Vedanta

13)   12^th  June, 1972, Monday, Early morning dream: I was dwelling on the top floor of a huge building .I was stepping down from the top floor observing innumerable number of rooms, steps and lanes inside the House which was beyond imagination. After stepping down for a while I felt that I lost my track to get up. Suddenly I noticed that an unknown person standing beside me, pointed out my way to the upstairs. I looked up and found that the steps lead to my dwelling place in the top floor. I then returned to my own room. Here the dream went off.

After a while, I again had a dream and noticed a beautiful hilly town. People were seen walking on roads. Suddenly a herd of cows was seen on the road. I stood on one side of the road and surprisingly went on thinking that I was dreaming but everything seemed so real! Then my dream went off.

[The revelation of the 1^st scene appeared thus : Large building signifies the huge capacity of the seer’s cerebrum. Rooms are the brain cells, lanes signify channels from the root of spinal chord to the cerebrum.

Loosing tracks means that during upward movement of the life force towards the 7^th plane of the cerebrum sometimes gets out of the channel being diverted from the main channel ‘Susumna’ nerve which is the main path towards Godhood within the body . At this moment God as unknown person keeps the seer in the right track which the seer experienced in this dream.

The 2^nd scene signifies that the seer had a realization of Vedanta where dream and reality are described as identical. At the same time the seer experienced the same realization as mentioned in the book ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’ No 881 : “ There is no difference between dream and reality. The devotee who has got pure consciousness realizes this”. (vide dream no 5 ]

Place : -  Temple  of  Dakshineswar

Visit to Vidyasagar
Saturday, August 5, 1882.

532. “The macrocosm in the form of microcosm in the womb of the Mother”.

Mother – is this very body. Yes, ‘I’ or ego is the son to body. Body bears this ‘I’, as a mother carries her child. The exact relation of the body and ‘I’ is that of mother and baby.

Womb – is cerebrum or the seventh plane where in the Jara Samadhi this vast Universe appears as a seed – i.e. microcosm; and macrocosm is Ra of Thakur; when the Universe is seen within this Atman. It is Viswarupa.

533. “I, by being a dwarf, shall hold the moon”.

Moon – is the symbol of devotion. In the Chetan Samadhi an aspirant sees the moon in the cerebrum.

‘I’ or egoism has become a dwarf, that is, ‘I’-ness has lessened. More the ego diminishes, more the realizations come.

534. “(Line of a song) – “Withhold me from deliverance”.

Almost all the people of India (Hindus of course) are being pursued to believe in getting liberation after death. It is an eyewash and smells sophistry. Liberation must be attained in this life or it has no value. According to the ‘Sachhanda Darshan’ (the philosophy of the spontaneous revelation), no sooner God in the body assumes a form it is visualized by the man; it is Immediate Liberation – Sadya mukti.

535. “Yet, on with your march. A wood-cutter had been to a forest to have wood. He met a Brahmachari. The latter told him, ‘Go forward’! The injunction was obeyed. Everything further on in the forest, he discovered a group of sandal-wood tress. After a few days, a reflection came upon him; he said to himself, ‘Well, the holy man asked me to march forward’. He advanced and found a silver-mine. Further on, and he found a gold-mine. Going on and on, and he found mines of precious stones and diamonds”.

March – it is to be taken up in the process of yoga in the body. Kundalini or Life Power marches on to the seventh plane.

Wood-cutter – An aspirant (Sadhak).

Forest – human body – Deharanya.

To have wood – more realizations by penetrating the body.

Brahmachari – God-the-Preceptor. The woodcutter found his God-the-Preceptor within his own body.

Sandal-wood tree – Subtle body.

Silver-mine – Causal body.

Gold-mine – the cerebrum or the seventh plane. It is called Hiranmaya Kosha (the golden plane) in the Upanishad.

Precious Stones – other innumerable realizations such as – Viswarupa, a Seed, Chaitanya, Tattvajnan, etc.

Diamond – Godhead.

536. “In the coffers of Varuna, there are countless gems. But the king Varuna is not aware of them”.

Coffers – human body. Varuna in the Indian mythology is described as king of water. Water is seen in the Pranamaya Kosha. There the water represents the collected Life Power. Again, it is seen in the seventh plane and here it represents Brahma. Strange that these things are seen. It is so charming and wonderful! Ultimately it transpires that Varuna is nobody else but every man.

Varuna – In later period of the Vedic literature, Varuna became identical with Brahma. It was so announced by the Rishis that man was Brahma. So Varuna, Brahma and man become identical.

The plain meaning is that a man is not aware of the latent capacity of his Life Power, or in short, a man does not know that he is Brahma. He is one with the whole human race in the spiritual world and its proof is discussed in the preface of this book and it bespeaks of “Unity in Diversity”.

Forecast  of  God-the-Preceptor  about  me in dream 

5)  March 3, 1972.  I dreamt that I had gone to one of my friend’s house at Howrah Town (near Kolkata) to collect the 2^nd and 3^rd part of a book ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’ (written by Diamond based on his personal realizations). But they said that they had not a single book. So I came out and aimlessly roamed here and there and unmindfully reached the residence of Diamond where; I found Diamond sitting on his cot in his room. Seeing me he only uttered without asking anything: Hey! You will write the 2^nd and 3^rd part of ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’. Then and there the dream went off.

[I gave no importance on it, But within 2-3 days some urge appeared in my mind to find this book. Strangely, I had no idea that book was already written by Diamond. I thought, I might have to write this book. As days passed on, some force began to arise within me for Diamond and gradually my mind began to change from the worldly affairs towards the world of Diamond where I felt that the true religion means the spontaneous evolution of life power within a human body to be transformed into God.

Thus a new divine life began in me together with my material world and was bloomed with innumerable strange and unique dreams enriching my mind and thoughts .

After several years when I had undergone & various realizations, I realized what was its real meaning. I realized that my God-the-Preceptor wanted to say that in future I would have various realizations mentioned in the 2^nd and 3^rd part of ‘Dharma-O-Anubhuti’. Because’ to write; means fixation of the affects of realizations within the body

Note: In real life, this actually happened when I had experienced many realizations as mentioned in the 2^nd and 3^rd part of the book as will be revealed in many of my dreams later on.]

Vision  of  the  future  ascent  and  descent  austerity

6)  May2, 1972:  I dreamed early in the morning that along with my two-three friends I was swimming in a pond. I defeated others and reached the other side of the pond and again came back to the starting point. The dream then went off.

[Five years later after having experiences of lots of ascent and descent realizations, I realized that this dream revealed  that I would have a fast course of austerity of ascent and descent in future. ]

Vision of my future                                                            

7) May3, 1972:  Early morning dream: A girl was seated in front of me, as if she would be married to me. I felt very upset. All on a sudden I observed that Sri Ramkrishna was sitting behind the girl with a sweet smiling face having an affectionate look on me. I had nothing but looking at him helplessly. Suddenly he took a paper and wrote on it that my marriage would be cancelled. Then the dream went off.

[The dream could not be followed for a long time, but gradually the effect of the dream came in my life in a way that the feelings for ritualistic marriage was eradicated from my mind and so ultimately remained bachelor].

Vision  of  Goddess  Saraswati  or  Deity  of  Vedic  knowledge

8) May 9, 1972, 

Noontime dream:  I was looking at the idol of Goddess Saraswati . All on a sudden to my utter Surprise she came out of the idol in flesh and blood and sat in front of me. I asked her, ‘Mother, what is called knowledge’? Though she answered but I could not remember after my dream went off.

[Saraswati is considered in Vedas, the symbol of vedic knowledge—The knowledge of knowing ‘self’

The dream indicated that in future the seer will gain knowledge of own self.]

Forecast of God-the-Preceptor about himself       

9) May13, 1972:

 Early morning dream: I saw the sky overhead, full of moonbeam light and a flock of illuminating birds flying beneath the sky. I had been observing these scenes from a 2-storied house. The ocean was seen in front of the house. Suddenly I observed that Diamond was sitting in front of me, showing me with his finger the scene and saying, ‘Hey! Look! Look!’ Then he turned round sitting in a different posture. Within a moment some-body came to him. I looked at him and found that he was my father, Diamond told me, ‘I am the greatest from Moses Period. I shall live for another ‘one and half thousand years’.

Then my father bowed down to his feet and he gave his blessings putting his hand on my father’s head. The dream then sent off.

[ Spontaneous revelation appeared in me in the following ways:

(a)  The light was seen in the fourth plane of the body.

(b)  Sky is seen in the fifth plane during austerity.

(c)  Here God-the-Preceptor gave his own introduction; among all the great religious teachers Diamond had experienced the highest order of austerity though basically all are same in class.

(d) The seer’s father also received the blessings of God the-the-Preceptor, though indirectly. ]       

Appearance  of  God-the-Preceptor

10) 18^th May, 1972, Thursday,  Early morning dream ;  I have gone to Calcutta University Science College at Ballygunge, Calcutta. One of my friend gave me an address and said, ‘Sri Jibankrishna (Diamond) is staying there’. Hearing this, I almost rushed to that house and saw Diamond sitting there. Seeing me he asked, ‘Why have you not come so long’? I gave my excuses and then my dream went off.

After a while again I felt asleep and saw in the dream that Diamond was sitting in a room on the 1^st floor. I sat beside him and he gave me the book ‘Sri Sri Ramkrishna Kathamrita (Gospel of Sri Ramkrishna) and said , ‘Read it’, I started reading and then the dream went off.

[ Here God-the-Preceptor gave  company to the seer for his satisfaction and consolation due to his long Detachment with Diamond in reality. ].
