This video is of a spontaneous Q & A session for new seekers held in Delhi on 24th Feb 2026. It turned out to be an extremely insightful session with the Author speaking about her own extraordinary Soul Journey as well as the Extraordinary Rishis of Bharat. The summary of which is produced below.

Introduction

The host of the evening, Mrs. Khanna, introduces the Author to the august gathering.

The Spiritual Realm

The Author attributes the writing of the Books to the Wish of God. We can only tread on the path of spirituality when we start letting go of things or when things, people and relations leave us. Only shock and pain can give us deeper insight into our purpose of life and help us go within and realize that we are not in control but everything happens as per God’s Wish. We become very grateful to God in the end.

One Extraordinary Soul’s Journey

For the Author, Mukti or Moksha was destined after 4 lives at the end of the previous incarnation. However, due to sharp Wisdom gained from experiences that life is not guaranteed for a specific outcome, the Author beseeched Parmatma umpteen number of times to grant a life where Mukti can be achieved. Even after multiple rejections from Parmatma, the Author continued to plead. Her plea was finally granted after 23 rejections! (see V8)

From this point onwards, the Journey had only three main characters, Parmatma, the Author and the Rishis. Out of compassion, the Rishis were strongly against granting this wish of the Author as it was an extremely steep mountain to climb. Moreover, in order to fulfil the wish and destiny there is a lot of deprivation of resources and support. Swami Kartikeyan whose any wish of Compassion and Mercy is always instantly granted by Parmatma, was told, “You are not able to see how strong her Will Power, Ichcha Shakti is!”

The Author marched on her most difficult but most satisfying life. Divine Intervention came in form of serendipitous support, the supervision of the ever vigilant Rishis or the Voice and Light of God within. The source of the Author’s steely resolve and indomitable Will Power is the very Divine Sankalpa or Resolve in the deepest level of the deepest mind – “May I always live in You, Parmatma!” – made just before the first ever physical birth just a little more than one lakh years ago!

Amara Maharishi

Amara Maharishi has taken many births in Bharatvarsh. One of his birthplaces is Mathura. Amara Maharishi told the Author in a silent communion – “I can read the thoughts of people. I know the power of their thoughts and intentions. I know their thoughts’ length, power and intensity!” Reference reading about Amara Maharishi

Swami Kartikeyan

Swami Kartikeyan is a very silent Rishi. He does his work of uprooting evil silently away from the spotlight. He has the most compassionate and beatific intentions for people who walk on the arduous path of spirituality and Truth. In his extensive, extremely difficult and very long penance of lakhs of years, he never let go of his Goal! In the end, when his tapasya was successful, he surrendered it all to Parmatma and said, “Please give the fruit of my penance to a woman.” When the Author visited Katargama, he gave the Author darshan in his Virat Swaroop. He said, “I have been waiting for one lakh years to see my penance fructify!” Reference reading about Swami Kartikeyan – Katargama 2016 post, May 2023 Post – I, June 2023 Post – II

Matang Maharishi

Matang Maharishi is the most reclusive Rishi, only mentioned once in the Ramayana. His Samadhi is in Kishkindha, today’s Hampi. He waited for more than 20 years for the Author to be ready for the point where he could initiate her into even tougher training. He is a Master of Kaya Kalpa. The Author has been under his strict mentorship for the past few years. He speaks very little but his each word is priceless. To prevent a fall on the spiritual path even after attaining the highest, he advises – “You should not stop even at the Zenith!” The moment you stop for comfort or rest, the degenerative forces play havoc and you fall.

Agastya Maharishi

The Author in the initial years of her spiritual journey was looking for a highly accomplished Guru to guide her and initiate her. Her attempts brought her to Puducherry, then Pondicherry. On her first visit to the Mother’s Ashram, she saw the astral form of Agastya Maharishi. Only recently has he disclosed to the Author, “I have not shown my astral form to anyone but you at the Ashram, not even the Mother or Shri Aurobindo. You wanted the highest and the deepest. You receive what you deeply desire!” Reference reading – Foreword, p.63, Bk 3 of 7 – Wisdom must be gained to eradicate ignorance – Adi Shankaracharya

Swami Keshwananda

He is a very accomplished Yogi. They teach us the most important lessons through their life’s experiences. His main lesson for seekers on the path of God is – “Discipline is tapasya.” Doing everything on time and in the required quantity is considered tapasya because it nullifies the chance of mind’s wandering or obsession with anything! He has also waited patiently for 20 years to call the Author to his place of penance! His tapasya will now be used for the world in a revolutionary way. His powers are very fierce and will bring about rapid change in the world. (see V6, V7, V8) Reference reading about Swami Keshwananda, & Chapter 2: Swami Keshwananda – Bk 4 of 7 – Wisdom must be gained to eradicate ignorance – Adi Shankaracharya

Markandey Maharishi

Markandey Maharishi is a very, very accomplished Rishi. His stature is very high. He has lived multiple times in Kashi. He is the famous Nachiketa of Kathopnishad, which he himself has written in a later incarnation. As Nachiketa, he lived at today’s Gyan Vapi Mandir. At that very spot, he had the darshan of Parmatma as Purush and received Purusha Suktam. He has been the anonymous author of Purusha Suktam – His name as author of this scripture was to be revealed only on one condition. If ever in the future a woman is born of अदम्य साहस – Indomitable Courage, only then will the world know the author of Purusha Suktam through her. Reference reading Chapter 4: Markandey Maharishi, pp.319-328, Bk 4 of 7 – Wisdom must be gained to eradicate ignorance – Adi Shankaracharya

Markandey Maharishi as Nachiketa experienced Brahma at a very old age, he made a noble sankalpa to experience Brahma at a very young age. However, to fulfil this a very strict set of conditions were laid out by Parmatma, for which no woman came forward except one. For that noble thought and divine mission, only the Author consented. Markandey Maharishi was Satyakam and the Author was his mother, Jabala. Reference reading: You were born with a mission, you will always do so. Remember, every mission for us is first decided by Parmatma, depending on our sankalpa or hidden thoughts & My noble Sankalpa and your very noble Sankalpa, have resonated and merged as One Consciousness with Parmatma’s Consciousness and Will in the past and now

Bharat, a Vishwa Guru
The closure of a Great Yogi,
The founding of a new Beginning,
A New Era, Yug Parivartan
Swami Keshwananda

Swami Keshwananda has had an exceptional Soul Journey as well. He is a mighty Yogi of great stature.

This Discourse was conducted with deepest gratitude and with the feeling of being blessed to be in the Shakti Peeth of Katyayani Devi, one of the 52 Shakti Peeths of Bharat. It is also the Ashram of Swami Keshwananda Maharaj. He lived here after he migrated from Bengal, he gave up his body in this Ashram in 1942 at the age of more than 110.

Swami Keshwananda – the Great Yogi

He is the first human being to receive Pranayam from Parmatma more than 1 crore years ago in Vrindavan. Out of the 8 times he lived in Vrindavan, 3 times he has taken birth in the precinct of Katyayani Shakti Peeth. In Bengal, he has taken birth 58 times. He loves his Bengal very much. He wants to resurrect and revive the glorious land of Bengal.

During the Author’s visit at the Ashram, many miraculous events happened and doors to his living space as well as his place of upasna of Kali Ma opened for the Author and her disciples without her asking.

Many spiritually powerful places like Shakti Peeths and Jyotirlingas are established on tapasya of the Great Rishis or Yogis from the past. They leave behind a rich legacy and divine energies through their tapasya. Similarly, Swami Keshwananda has done tapasya at this place, he was one such Great Yogi.

Katyayani Ma confirmed to the Author that Swami Keshwananada had first done tapasya here and had invoked Ma as Shakti at this place. She has thus manifested here at Katyayani Shakti Peeth. Swami Keshwananda’s presence is felt very strongly here by the Author. The land vibrates with his energy. He has been extremely reclusive and humble yet he has given all his lives in the welfare of others. It was 1 crore years ago, in his very first life, he vowed out of pangs of separation from his family that even though he does not have a family; he will consider the entire world as his own family, the Earth as his Mother. He loves his Matribhumi.

Seeking blessing from Ma Katyayani

For the first time ever in all of the pilgrimages, the Author has asked for a blessing from Ma Katyayani to be able to do Pranayam regularly because Pranayam is the basis and foundation of Yoga Sadhana because a lot of energy is required to continue doing the work. The Author knows that this place is special and that there is Tara Peeth in this place.

Three boons received

In every life the Author will be able to do Pranayam.

She will always do the work of serving humanity and the Rishis.

She will be the upasak or devotee of Katyayani Ma in every life.

Lion with a motherly heart

Even though Swamiji is fierce like a Lion, he has a tender and loving heart like that of a mother. Being a Kali Ma bhakt for all his lives, he sees everyone with tenderness. Yet his masculinity is such that he can tear apart an evil person in a flash. Just like Narasimha Avatar. A fiery Yogi. He is an great example of the beautiful mixture and balance between fiercefulness of masculinity and the tenderness of femininity. Masculinity is not defined as the ability to overpower someone.

Swamiji the first freedom fighter of Bharat Mata

His old Ashram was called Ananda Math yet he made the Author write Ananda Ashram as the name of his ashram in the Author’s Book. The Author was then comforted by Swami Keshwananda that he does not want to be associated with Ananda Math and wants to remove his memory of that time. His energies were anyway transferred before his death to Keshwashram in Haridwar by his father Maharishi Markandey. There is a meditation hall in the astral sky above Keshwashram and the name of that hall is Ananda Ashram.

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose – the disciple of Swami Keshwananda

Netaji wants the world to know that the Author performed his tarpan in Oct ‘25 in Ayodhya and that only a temple of Bharat Mata must be built at his resting place. He will return in the future and become the Prime Minister of Bharat, the people who troubled him will serve under him. What goes around, comes around as justice! Netaji was Gumnami Baba and lived in seclusion and anonymity for 40 years. His tapasya has now been stored under the Ram Janma Bhoomi Temple and some of it is in Keshwashram, Haridwar. The energies are for Bharat.

Similarly, Swami Keshwananda, who at the time was Swami Triloknath, was troubled by the British and Nawab of Bengal who wanted to grab the land of his Ashram in Bengal in the 18th century. Ultimately, it was a British hunter who had lost his way and gifted him the land of today’s Keshwashram, when Swami Keshwananda showed him a safe way out. A similar thing happened with Swami Keshwananda when he received the land for building his Ashram at Katyayani Shakti Peeth.

The Tarpan of a Great Yogi

Swamiji wanted only a very pious Soul like Ma Kali to do his tarpan because he has been a Kali Ma Bhakt in every life. After his tarpan in the morning of 26th February 2026 in Vrindavan, he is fully free from the sorrow of his life where he got a painful death at the hands of the British and the Nawab of Bengal – all to take away the land of his Ashram.

He is awakened now, he is a revolutionary and he has released his energies in the world on Maha Shivaratri of 2025 – the day after the end of Maha Kumbh.

Shubh Sankalpa manifests faster than injurious ones

The Author’s story is intertwined with Swami Keshwananda. The Author’s pious Sankalpa to do something while living in Jaipur on knowing of the killings of sannyasis in Bengal has been manifested by Parmatma as the tarpan of Swami Keshwananada who was Swami Triloknath of Bengal in 18th century.

Swami Keshwananda – the freedom fighter of Bharat

Swamiji left his mortal body in 1942 in Vrindavan because his love for Bharat Mata did not let him see her partition. He is the person who made Bakim Chandra Chatterjee coin the term ‘Vande Mataram’. The energies of Vrindavan Ashram and Katyayani Peeth are resurrecting Bharat. These energies were released on 26th Feb ‘25 on Shivaratri when the Author first visited the Katyayani Shakti Peeth.

Swami Keshwananda – The fiery Yogi – Avatar Narasimha

The navel is the seat of deep rooted desires. If these desires are bad and selfish, the person becomes asura, rakshas or evil. The Author had the Darshan of Swami Keshwananda at Godhuli in Vishnupad temple in Gaya in March 2025. He has awakened now. He wants Bharat to be a Vishwa Guru now. He wants Bharat to be a country that follows Sanatan Dharma. He is the Narasimha Avatar of today.

He wants to revive undivided Bengal and he wants to bring Dhakeshwari Ma back home.

He will help people who wish to purify themselves, want to work hard on themselves and want to help others and who want to spread compassion, mercy and peace in the Brahmaand or Universe. On the contrary, he will extinguish the energies of people who want to give trouble to others, want to dominate and give pain to others. It is in the Vishesh Kaliyug that the power of the asuric shaktis increases because they manifest in huge numbers on earth and want to rapidly take rebirths after death, while the pious are very few in number.

In today’s world, bad souls living on earth worship very evil souls who have departed, this is very bad for the Earth. The colours of Kali Ma are red and black. Black is for the removal of evil souls by Kali Ma and red is for prana – here Swami Keshwananda has the power or prana to pierce deep within someone to know them fully.

The Seven conditions for doing Tarpan of a Great Yogi like Swami Keshwananda

Parmatma has made Swami Keshwananda do such difficult tapasya as Swami Triloknath so that Parmatma can use his tapasya at this time, today and now!

Swami Keshwananda made a very sweet and loving request to the Author to perform his tarpan by simply speaking to the world of what has happened to him.

There were very stringent seven conditions set by Parmatma for anyone to perform the tapran of Swami Keshwananda.

The vemanasya – mental distress, sadness and broken heartedness will be burnt away by the agni or the heat of the Punya.

If the tarpan of Swamiji happens exactly one year after the end of Maha Kumbh of 2025, six things will happen in the Author’s life.

The Real Doers of noble and divine things are the Rishis and Parmamta in today’s most tumultuous time and Yug Parivartan.

Brahma is eternal
Om is eternal
Earth is eternal
Truth is eternal.

ब्रह्म शाश्वत है,
ओम् शाश्वत है,
पृथ्वी शाश्वत है,
सत्य शाश्वत है।

A yogi and a revivalist from Bengal
His Ashram in Vrindavan in the precinct of Ma Katyayani Devi, a Shakti Peeth

—————————————————————————————————– 

Swami Keshwananda was born in Shivanipur in Bengal in the year 1830.

It is not known when he came to Vrindavan from Bengal and settled here near the river bank of Yamuna in the thick jungles. Slowly his disciples also came from Bengal and other places of Bharat and made the Ashram very vibrant. He was a key person in upgrading the spiritual energies of this Shaktipeeth with his penance of many years and charitable work.

This Peeth is synonymous with Katyayani Devi Ma as well as His Holiness Shri Swami Keshwananda Maharaj who lived here till he took a Mahasamadhi in 1942. He did not want the partition of Bharat. He made a map of Akhand Bharat with his own hands on a marble tile and fixed it in his place of pooja, aradhana, dhyana and samvad, dialogue with Ma Kaali. He was a Param Bhakt of Maa Kali in all his previous lives. 

A glimpse of this divine temple and his Holy Ashram.

Prior to this life, he was a Guru in his Gurukul Ananda Math in Bengal from 1735 to 1763.

A Hindi poem published on Facebook on 24-03-26

A session on some rare and very subtle questions was conducted on 21st Oct during Diwali

• Why are some Souls on an extraordinary trajectory in their Soul Journey? The factors that give them a head start.
• The first Sankalpa, thought of the Soul’s first incarnation matters the most. Ichcha Shakti or Will is planted by Parmatma in all the Souls in the first birth itself in the navel. The birth of the first thought in the first incarnation depends on how the Soul manifests the given Ichcha Shakti.
• That first Sankalpa in the first moments determines the quality of mind and Will Power, thereby giving the Soul an extraordinary Journey.
• Om is embedded in our mind as the first layer during its formation after which the body is formed. Om is the bridge or tool when we wish to return Home to Parmatma.
• Om is that divine sound when reverberated in the deepest mind bestows peace which is regenerative in nature and restores Nature. Undiluted peace is Parmatma’s presence in us.
• With the vibrations of Om in the navel, the Will Power is recharged. This Will Power ignites the desire to have God-Realization.
• What is unconscious mind? How to harness it? How to take the mind back in profound peace when we were first born?
• Unconscious or deepest layer of our mind has maximum rays and Light of God with Om as the last layer in us. The part of the mind also has the memory of the first 25 lives.
• The prodigious souls erase the painful memories and recharge the positive thoughts with Meditation, Peace, Forgiveness and Love for God. Thus, making space in the deepest mind for more Light of God to replace the old and unwanted thoughts.
• What is the purpose of tarpan? In some rare cases, why is the tarpan of Rishis done? And who is eligible to do it?
• Is there a stage after samadhi? There is only one stage after samadhi – it is shanti, Akhand Shanti.
• The importance of peace in our lives. Without peace on this Earth, it shall perish.

For reference reading on the topic discuss, kindly refer to the poem “May my mind always dwell on that which is auspicious” by Markandey Maharishi on p. 199, in the Bk 3 of 7 – Wisdom must be gained to eradicate ignorance – Adi Shankaracharya. Book.
