'I have a vision in my mind for a University that can teach human beings to tackle any problems in life and to move forward in any situation. That will teach them how to revitalize health that has deteriorated and how to magnify the vitality once it has improved? How to solve the various mental and behavioural ailments and how to inculcate qualities of politeness, nobility and tolerance in human nature? How to imbibe necessary virtues of hope, enthusiasm, courage, patience, foresight, kindness, control and discipline? Impart practical training of the above to the students so that they can become complete human beings, great human beings.' - Pandit Shriram Sharma Acharya (Akhand Jyoti, March 1964) Shriram Sharma Acharya, a pioneer of spiritual renaissance was born on 20th September 1911, in Anwalkheda, Agra District.

Last Message:- My soul's embodied sojourn on Earth is about to come to a close. Every breath of this long life-span of eighty years has been spent, in a spirit of total self-surrender to the Indwelling, All-pervading Divinity, while selflessly and single pointedly carrying out the behests of my Divine Gurusatta, living in astral-causal sheaths in the remote Himalayas. The stupendous and herculean task of uplifting humanity into the Golden Era of Satyug (Age of Truth) will be far more swiftly and effectively accomplished by working, as a liberated soul, through the self-effectuating and all-conquering divine cosmic energies of the higher planes of consciousness, instead of somehow carrying on the work with this worn-out physical sheath. Hence the decision to cast it off.
The light of which I have been an instrument and medium will not extinguish with my withdrawal from the physical realm. I assure all my parijans that I will continue living and working with them at Shantikunj and elsewhere in my astral-causal body as a concrete presence and guide, help and inspire them in their efforts to lead humanity into the Golden Era of Truth, Light and Immortality. I will finally merge into the Blissful Luminous causal self at the end of this century, after humanity has taken decisive leap into the cosmic consciousness and attained the light of New Era of spiritual Unity, Harmony and Peace.
The bonds of spiritual kinship that bind us will continue growing deeper and stronger with the passage of time.
My soul is like a Brahma-Kamal (Lotus) in full bloom. Throughout this life I have sown numberless seeds of this lotus in aspiring souls who have turned to me. I am sure, these seeds, wherever they have fallen on fertile soil, will sprout and grow up into full-bloomed Brahma-Kamals themselves and become the torch-bearers for the spread of Divine Light on Earth. My blessings, love and prayer-filled wishes to all my parijans. I will always be with them in their selfless and noble endeavours in this divine work. ... |
