Gyaanganj is an invisible ashram hidden from normal human
eyes and is known as the land of the immortals. Many believers say that this is
the heavenly kingdom that shapes our destiny.
I asked Baba, so is there a secret territory in our
center, which in most probability escaped all geographical observations? A
place that provides the perfect environment and opportunities for spiritual
evolution, a place where thousands of wise beings immortal and perfect plan the
evolution of the human race, or rather, of all sentient beings? In the deep
earth, is such a place an empirical reality or just bad science fiction?
On my prodding Baba then explained to me about Gyanganj,
he first said yes he did visit the place few times and he was taken there by
two other siddhas. Gyanganj exists on a different level, a higher dimension.
But, yes, on a gross level it has a location parallel in known places on earth.
Yes such a place do exist, camouflaged and in seclusion, and is accessible to
only siddhas. It is not heaven on earth, but a mystical kingdom that guards the
most sacred and ancient teachings of the world, including the Kalachakra (Wheel
of Time).
Ordinary human beings with little or no spiritual
development cannot enter this realm. Only the highly developed yogis and
sadhaks can enter this realm in their causal and physical body. And they are
taken there by siddhas who are already dwelling there in Siddhasram (One of
many names of Gyanganj). Gyanganj exists on three planes, physical, divine and
spiritual. And the enlightened souls too exist on three levels – Causal,
Greater Causal and Ultra Spiritual. They possess the ability to easily
transcend all the three levels, and those Ultra Spiritual ones living in their
causal body, have the power to appear in their physical body too.
In that land, words and voice are not needed for
communication. In Madhyama, Pashyanti and Para levels only intent is enough to
communicate. In Gyanganj, if a great man looks at you, you can feel his intent
and the message that he wants to convey. Using the computer jargon his intents
are instantly decoded and you get to know what he is trying to say. Actually if
the developments in present day science are to be compared with the level of
developments in Gyanganj, they stand nowhere. Most of the science is involved
in three dimensional worlds but in Gyanganj the yogis are working on the fourth
dimension as well. Today’s science has learnt the art of creating energy from
an atom but they don’t know how to create atom from that energy. In Gynaganj
there are
technologies that are referred to as Surya Vigyan and Chandra Vigyan.
According to the basic principle of Surya Vigyan, the core of every material is
composed of Sun rays, and by changing the ratio of sun rays you can change the
property of that material. Rose can be converted into Marigold. By
concentrating sun rays, matter can be created in vacuum. It is from Gyanganj
that Vishudhanandji learned Surya Vigyan. Vishudhananda have stayed many times
in Gyanganj where he learned Surya Vigyan or solar science. The Surya Vigyan
gave him the power to manifest objects or transform one object into another by
manipulating the sun's rays. You have read Autobiography of Yogananda, there he
describes his meeting with Vishudhananda in Calcutta and witnessing his feature
to create any kind of scent in the air on request. This he used to do with the
use of his Surya Vidya.
All the great souls of our time and the times gone by who
left their physical bodies are living in Gyanganj in their causal body. Great
saints like Shirdi’s Sai Baba, Nanga Baba, Sant Gyaneshwar, Mahavatar Babaji
Maharaj, and many others are living in Gyanganj. They keep appearing in the
subconscious of Sadhakas and other blessed souls and telepathically direct them
to perform deeds that are helpful to the humanity. Every other great sadhakas
in this world do visit Gyanganj once or many times to gain more knowledge. Why
did Jesus Christ need to visit Tibet and Himalayas? Was it just to meet the
sadhus of Himalayas as mentioned or was there more to it?
So where exactly is this Gyanganj? They allocate the
region in the north of Kailash-Mansarovar in Tibet. It covers an area of
several square kilometers and is full of lakes of clear water. In Tibet, this
legendary land of spiritual enlightenment is known as Shambala, a Sanskrit term
for the Tibetan means "the source of happiness." There is a
drawbridge that connects Gyanganj to our world. At the end of this drawbridge
there is a device that allows lifting when required. This device is used by
means of Surya Vigyan, only those who are adept in this knowledge can use it.
There are many other places, scattered in India on gross level, the land of
Gyanganj. The area of the River Alaknanda is one such place. The riverbed of
Mandakini is also very mysterious: spiritual giants through the ages have lived
here and is considered at gross level of Gyanganj. The entire region from Rishikesh
to Kailash and Yamunotri to Nandadevi is the land of the siddha. In Bihar, many
siddhas attend the mountain of Giridhkoot. The Nilgiris and Srisailam in south
India are also known as a haven of secrets and considered to be part of
Gyanganj. The hills of Arunachala in Tamil Nadu, where Ramana Maharishi created
his ashram, that’s another land of siddha and at gross level of Gyanganj. In
the west, Girnaur saw the activity of siddha. The Indians, of course, does not
have a monopoly on Gyanganj. People from other parts of the world live there,
including many Tibetan lamas and many even from Greece.
Proof by other saints and books about Gyanganj:
In India, this secret, sacred land is known as Gyanganj
or Siddashram. References to Gyanganj or
ashram secrets can be found in Hindu
scriptures such as the Ramayana of Valmiki and the Mahabharat. Guru Nanak
called it Sach Khand. Even our Upanishad has mention of Gyanganj. Closer to our
time, Paramahansa Yogananda, in his celebrated "Autobiography of a
Yogi" writes of the encounter with the guru of gurus, Mahavatar Babaji, an
immortal of long age who appears increasingly young and still living in the
Himalayas. Babaji has also appeared in some other advanced research and is said
to be connected with Gyanganj.
To understand the story of Gyanganj, best is to read the
writings of Gopinath Kaviraj, a former dean of the State University of Sanskrit
in Benares. Kaviraj wrote a book called Siddahbhoomi Gyanganj, which was
translated from Bengali into Hindi and published by Bharatiya Vidya Prakashan.
The main source of information Kaviraj was his guru, Swami Vishudhananda, a
Bengali who moved to Benares. It is believed that Vishudhanandaji had stayed
for a long period in Gyanganj where he learned Surya Vigyan or solar science. Different
books about Yogirajadhiraj Swami Vishuddhananda Paramhansadeva, tells in
details about his talks on Gyanganj and all the visits he made there besides
the knowledge he gained.
Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali, an astrologer-tantric- guru
based in Jodhpur who published Mantra- Tantra Yantra Vigyan, a monthly Hindi,
says he did his sadhana in Siddhashram, where his name was Nikhileshwarananda.
That's where he acquired his occult powers. Later his guru in Siddhashram told
him they wanted him to return to his family life and help in spreading the
wisdom of Siddhashram.
