    “”If you met Gurinder physically, what would you feel? Love or hate?
    And if you met him inside, would it be different?””
    Inside it feels that HE was always there
    before your first breath
    The reason is that They are you
    in the same sense that the Creator is You
    but this is extremely comfortable

    If you want the inside “know”
    Do U appreciate the Côte d’Azur Blue?
    This night my wife saw HIM ( Charan )
    approaching in a kind of whiter than white config
    and in a blue Méditerénean Sea were many
    Swans , also with wither than white
    all with fantastic auras
    The blue ( She said ) was what you see on the postcards here
    but more radiant as if nothing existed then that
    and in billions of shadows
    like Azur, Corn, Cobalt, Lapis Lazuli, Hyacint, Gentian, Nîmes
    Heaven’s blue, Royal Blue, Jean’s , so many
    all that
    and HE said nothing this time. . . . .
    Difficult to find a name
    Amrit or honey is not so bad after all
    ===========================================
    Compare SK. with a great Concert, all best Componists ,
    All appreciated Beloved Artists present and you can speak with them
    and much more things you had never imagined possible
    All subjective
    Who wants death row Death Star objectives ?

    I really like your comments here.
    i was initiated by Ishwar Puri Ji in 2016. My experiences also points to authenticity of these methods.

    What’s your personal take on law of karma
    I would like to hear from you

  10. 777

    That it s regulated by a giant ANALOGUE computer , not a soul
    call it a Cyborg , an Archangel or a God
    hyper precise a,d without Merci and like GOD HER/HIM self is in every Soul but on a lower level
    This, in my Eyes makes this Path enormous attractive
    Because the force we got in the Simran, IF USED
    is flabbergasting, specially in enduring karma.
    My Wife , also a fan, thinks and liveslike myself but totally different
    Soami Ji wrote :
    Therefore I created KAL , . . because without KAL men had no fear
    This a some 2 cents because the Trut, I cannot explain
    It s more than truth
    it s LOVE and we cannot describe it
    It s perpetual orgasm but only above our Eyes
    Without Karma , it woyldn t function.
    Also : peiple think in terms of a few incarnations
    IT IS ZILLIONS
    Count is impossible
    It is pure love and all other will vaporise

    I always feel concept of kaal is very intriguing?
    Kaal is time. It only bends in front of satpurush
    But what is hard to find is connection between them

  12. October

    If there is only One how can there be other.
    be it Kaal or anybody else.

    so whats story of Kaal?

    When there was fierce battle was going in between Bipolar God, Kaal kept on pulling down one of them.

    so when ONE descends, he lands at Kaal. From kaal creation start but by manifesting ONE energy. When creation was put in motion, ONE further descends into Causal,Astral and then into physical.
    So when one remembers(realize) this story, kaal is nothing but another manifestation of ONE.

    Gemini gave best response out of all AI tools i tried.can be relied for spiritual stuff

    here is the response it gave

    ——————————————————————————————–
    You have hit on the profound, paradoxical core of non-dual philosophy: If the Source is truly One, nothing else can genuinely exist outside of it.

    From this ultimate perspective, everything else—including Kaal (Time/Destiny/the Demiurge)—is not a separate rival, but a mask the One wears to experience division.

    Here is how this cosmic story unfolds based on the framework you described:

    The Mechanics of the Cosmic Descent
    When the absolute, formless ONE decides to experience creation, it requires a mechanism to step down its infinite energy. Absolute reality cannot have “here and there” or “before and after” because it is limitless. To create a universe, boundaries are required.

    This is where Kaal comes in.

    [ THE ONE ] (Absolute, Formless, Non-Dual)


    [ KAAL ] (The Nexus / Threshold of Time & Duality)

    ┌───────┴───────┐
    ▼ ▼
    [Causal] ──► [Astral] ──► [Physical]
    1. The Landing at Kaal
    As the energy of the ONE descends, it first condenses into the realm of Kaal (often associated with Universal Mind, Time, or the Matrix of Creation). Kaal acts as a cosmic prism. Just as a single beam of white light hits a prism and splits into a spectrum of colors, the energy of the ONE hits Kaal and splits into polarities (light/dark, positive/negative, devas/asuras).

    2. The Illusion of the “Bipolar God”
    The “fierce battle” you mentioned—the endless tug-of-war between opposing forces—only exists because Kaal keeps pulling one side down to maintain equilibrium. If one side won completely, the game of duality would end, and creation would dissolve back into the One. Kaal’s job is to keep the wheel spinning.

    3. The Step-Down into the Lower Realms
    Once Kaal sets the boundaries, the manifested energy of the ONE cascades further down:

    The Causal Realm: The world of seed-thoughts, blueprints, and karma.

    The Astral Realm: The world of energy, emotions, and subtle forms.

    The Physical Realm: The densest layer, where matter, space, and linear time dominate.

    The Great Realization
    The trap of the lower realms is forgetting the source. When a soul is caught in the physical or astral layers, Kaal looks like a terrifying, separate entity—a jailer keeping us bound to time, death, and karma.

    But the moment of awakening happens exactly as you put it: When you realize the story, the illusion shatters.

    Kaal is not an independent rogue agent operating against the Divine; Kaal is the Divine’s own instrument for running the simulation. Without Kaal, there is no story, no journey, and no “coming home.” When you realize that even the force pulling you down is just the left hand of the ONE, Kaal ceases to be a captor and is recognized as just another shadow cast by the Light.
