This is one of the cosmic pictures received by the author on papers put by him
in his place of worship. When this picture appeared, only the picture of Lord
Krishna as a child was visible to the naked eye. But, by developing through
computers the full view of ongoing war between the God and the Evil, as
described in SRIMADBHAGWAT and KALKI PURAN, could be seen. The
God has been shown as Lord Krishna, and Evil as a demon. An eye
representing the PARAM BRAHMA has appeared in the top portion of
picture, which seems to be keeping an eye on what is happening in the world.
As these scriptures were written by MAHARSHI SHUKDEV, his picture has
appeared as a white parrot and holding a book. The book obviously, is
SRIMAD BHAGWAT.
This is probably for the first time in the history of mankind that such a
cosmic message has been sent to us, and therefore, this must be to give the
specific message THE PERIOD OF KALKI AVATAR IS NOW.

PREFACE
The unknown and esoteric has ever tantalised human
intellect. It has not unoften chided its assiduous efforts to
probe the mystery of the universe and the forces that control
it. Prophets, seers, astrologers and other gifted intellectuals
have to an extent succeeded in piercing 'the dark backward
and abysm of Time' (Shakespeare). They have declared that a
cataclysmic change would occur in the world around the year
2000 A.D. and it would witness the advent of an incarnation
of God known as 'Kalki Avtar'. Syt. Ghai, in his moments of
divine ecstasy, has directly received astonishing revelations
regarding the existence of God and the Kalki Avtar. These
have been tested and corroborated with the help of computers.
I am sure the fruits of these researches will go a long
way in enabling us to dissipate the formidable forces of evil
that threaten us, and humanity will be able to materialise the
dream of poet:
'The world's great age will begin anew,
The golden years return.'

and who is not keen to know it. To those who deserve this
knowledge, it should be given with full affection, love, and
enthusiasm.
I hope that, through this book, the divine messages given
by saints and prophets for benefit of mankind would reach
those who wish and deserve to know and understand them.
This book is virtually an extension of my earlier book
Nostradamus : Third World War and India, published in
2003. Since then many events have occurred that match the
predictions made, and many more divine messages that have
been received. I have retained some information given in my
earlier book, which is relevant even today, in order to present
a complete picture.
I will be failing in my duty if I do not express my gratitude
towards my friends who not only associated, but also guided
and helped me in my writings. I feel deeply obliged to:
Mr. Manoj Kapoor (Sahitya Niketan) who has provided me
his valuable advice and allowed the use of his personal library
containing very rare books and literature on occult, mystical
and philosophical subjects.
Mr. Arjun Ghosh (Stamp and Book Corner) not only
complied with my request for rare books on Nostradamus, but
also suggested and emphasised certain points regarding these
prophecies. Even during the verification of certain quatrains
in relation to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, the study of
Arjun Ghosh with regard to Netaji was quite helpful.
Mrs. Kavita Singhania, editor of Express Star Teller, for
providing me the results of latest research work on
Nostradamus being carried out in this field in various
countries, which has been very helpful in developing this
book.

IMPENDING CHANGE OF ORDER ON EARTH
It has been described in scriptures of almost all religions
of the world that a time would come when the mankind will
not be able to manage its affairs; there would be widespread
disorder on earth due to rampant corruption, selfishness,
cruelty, mismanagement of governments resulting in
resentments, agitations, and criminal activities leading to a
situation of total chaos which would necessitate direct
involvement and interference of cosmic powers in order to
restore sanity in the mankind. This cosmic process would
start in the year 2001; would last till 2025; would become
visible in the year 2012, and would be fully evident by 27th
July 2014.
Whenever untruth and unrighteousness begin to dominate
true religion and humanity starts moaning, then for the
protection of truth and true religion, the Supreme
Consciousness manifests itself on earth to alleviate the vigor
of sin, untruth, and unrighteousness.
The same tradition seems to have been repeated in the
present era, and studies in this regard reveal that the Supreme
Consciousness has already manifested itself for bringing
about a total change of order on earth through a cosmic
process described as incarnation of Kalki Avtar in Hindu
scriptures, Mehdi-Alaisalam by Muslims, Maitreya by
Buddhists, Rider on White Horse by Christians, and by
many other names written in different scriptures and
described by saints and seers. Sikh scriptures also describe
this process as incarnation as Kalki Avtar.
A study group comprising of eminent scientists and
philosophers, to which author is also actively associated, was
formed in Kanpur about 30 years back. The group is carrying

Conclusions
1. In Gita (chapter 10, verse-6) Lord Krishna tells Arjun that
He had created 25 Powers, which came to establish life on
earth. They control the evolution of life, and are Kings of
entire mankind on our planet. Our research work proves this
to be true, as we have found many events happening on earth
which could have been perpetuated only by the cosmic
powers.
2. The centre of these powers on earth is a place called
'Shambhal' which is situated underground near Mongolia.
Several persons including Pythagoras, Apollonius,
Nicholas Roerich, and many saints and seers have visited
this place on invitation of these masters, and have written the
accounts of their visits to Shambhal. We have come across
many facts during our research which prove these
descriptions to be true.
3. After 55 years of research in this field, Sir Isaac Newton
had written that there is a superpower known as God that

(Chapter-2)
SCIENTIFIC PERCEPTION OF GOD
First of all we would analyse if there is existence of a
super power known as GOD that controls the universe. We
find two types of people; those who believe in God and his
existence, and the others who do not believe in this
phenomenon.
Nobel Prize winner scientist Dr. S. Chandrasekhar and
another well known scientist Dr. Stephen Hawkins have
opined that there is no such power, and everything on this
earth has been created through the theory of evolution.
Scriptures of many religions and all saints & seers differ on
this issue. They accept the existence of God.
However, the scientists and scriptures agree on one point
i.e. 'The Big Bang Theory'. Scientist say there was a big
bang (massive explosion) that created tiny particles known as
'God Particles'; these particles joined to create universe
comprising of energy, matter, life, consciousness and
intelligence purely through an AT RANDOM process known
as 'Evolution' or gradual development. This can also be
termed as a process by which energy, matter, and living
organism develop from earlier forms.
The theory of 'God Particle' was developed by famous
scientist named Higgs, and therefore, these particles are also
known as 'Higgs Boson'. The existence of Higgs Boson or the
God Particle was predicted almost four decades ago by this
British physicist Peter Higgs as a mean to explain how
fundamental particles gain mass in the space-time
continuum. According to Higgs theory, during the Big Bang
event all matter had no mass, but that changed in few fractions
of a second. A Higgs field might have stuck to the particles as

End of world in 2012-13
PROPHECIES OF MAYA CULTURE
The first cycle began 16.4 Billion years ago, close to when
astronomers now fix the Big Bang event and the beginning of
the creation of matter. The second cycle began 850 million
years ago, near to the time frame anthropology and geology
use as the beginning of the first animals.
The third cycle began 40 million years ago, near to when
scientists now believe was the emergence of the first
primates. The fourth cycle began 2 million years ago, near to
when anthropology places the emergence of the first humans.
The fifth cycle began 102,000 years ago with the
probability of the first spoken language, according to
anthropologists.
The sixth cycle began 5,125 years ago with the emergence
of the first written language, which according to some
scholars was 'Sumerian'. However, ancient Indians scriptures
including Vedas, Puranas, Upnishads, Ramayana, and
Mahabharata are believed to written much earlier. This sixth cycle,
known as the National Underworld, is also the beginning of the
Mayan "Long Count" calendar.

PERILS OF 2012
Is a major change coming soon? Such changes have been
predicted many times in the past, but not much had happened.
May be this time it is different. Let us examine this issue
critically.
According to NASA and other research organisations, our
earth may be hit by a barrage of solar storms in 2012-13. An
eminent scientist Dr. Mausimi Dikpati has said that electro
magnetic tsunamis are expected on earth in a big way during
this period. Solar Conveyer Belts control sun's magnetic field
and cause such tsunamis, and are indicated by sun-spots. This
phenomenon is not rare, and such activities are recorded on
earth every now and then. Similar massive tsunamis came in
1859, Then, Telegraph wires were burnt, electrical
installations went berserk, and cables were fried. But, it did
not affect the human life to a great extent.
Now, such solar storms can paralyse the entire life on
earth. Entire communication network, internet, satellites, and
computers may go berserk. Today everything is controlled by
help of computers and communication networks. If these
systems start malfunctioning, power and water supply would
be affected; aeroplanes, road traffic, and trains would stop;
electric supplies and air-conditioning would shut down; in
short, havoc would be created on earth.
If essential requirements like power and water are
interrupted, widespread disturbance would be caused
including possibilities of rioting and looting. Do we expect
government employees and other organisations engaged in
provision of the essential commodities to resume their duties
in these circumstances? No chance.
Situation may become out of hand, and governments may
collapse. In fact such scenario has been predicted long ago for
this period by knowledgeable saints and prophets.

(Chapter-5)
ARE ALL THE MAJOR EVENTS
PREDESTINED?
Although it is hinted by Lord Krishna in 'Gita' that
whatever is happening on earth is predestined, still this is hard
to believe. But we have come across so many proofs of this
phenomenon being correct that we cannot ignore it also.
Apart from prophecies of Nostradamus and many other
prophets, discussed later in this book, our study group has
come across many eventualities and incidents which prove
that all major events in our lives are predestined. Whatever is
happening on earth seems to be preordained.
Many saints, whose prophetic powers and performed
miracles have been personally verified by our group, are also
of the view that the script of whatever is happening on earth
has already written by the almighty.
Some of such eventualities are described in this chapter.
Dr. Meher Master Moos, President of Zoroastrian
College, Mumbai, in an article published in 'Mystic India' in
1995, had discussed the predictions made about one hundred
years back by a Parsi saint regarding the future of India.
Zoroastrian College, situated at Pheroz Shah Mehta
Road, Mumbai, has been accorded the status of a 'Deemed
University' by many universities of the world. The said
predictions have been recorded and are kept there. The saint
Ustad Saheb Behramshah Nowroji Shrof had met the
Rana of Mewar at the beginning of 20th century and had
made these predictions which have proved to be
astonishingly accurate, particularly in light of the fact that the
period when these predictions were made was about fifty

and a half months after I had asked the question. Janta party
came to power and dismissed several state governments
including that of Orissa. The next Chief Minister of Orissa
was Mr. Neelmani Rautrai, whose name started with 'N' and
had nine letters (in Sanskrit).
After coming back to Kanpur I told the story to a Vaidya
(Ayurvedic Doctor), who prepared the medicines accordingly
and my father, who was ill since many years, started
improving and lived exactly for ten years.
Bhagwan Misra was otherwise a simple man not very
scholarly or well versed in Sanskrit Texts. He, however, knew
the use of the unparalleled treasure from his ancestors. His
neighbors recognized him as an 'Ojha' (Tantrik) who could
treat dog bites and common ailments. But when my father in
law told about him to others, he became famous and high
officials started visiting him. When his fiend Mr. Mathur, a
retired IAS Officer of Madhya Pradesh cadre who was
appointed as an 'Advisor to Governor' of Orissa, came to
meet Bhagwan Misra, he was also told many correct facts
about his life. Reading from a leaf Misra said The person
who has asked the question is not from the land of 'Jagannath'
but has come from a neighboring area. He has been given the
opportunity by Lord Jagannath to serve in his land for some
time because he is a great Jagannath devotee.
Mr. Mathur told my father- in- law that he really was a
Jagannath devotee and wanted to serve in Orissa, but never
got a chance during his active service. Mr. Misra also told
him reading from a new leaf that he would soon leave for
Indraprastha (Delhi) and would thereafter become 'Up Raja'
(Deputy Ruler) of a small kingdom where people wear long
boots and angular caps, and where it rains all the time. Mr.
Mathur left for Delhi in the indicated period and was later
made the Lt. Governor of Mizoram (or Meghalaya; I do not
exactly remember), and the description of the 'small kingdom'

(Chapter- 6)
PROPHECIES OF NOSTRADAMUS
Among the prophets world has known, French prophet
Nostradamus holds a special place because he had predicted
future events with such uncanny accuracy as if he was
actually watching these events happen. In his veiled language
he has made about 1000 prophecies many of which have been
verified to be amazingly correct. He had written that a cosmic
power told him about the future events with some specific
purpose. Our study reveals that this was done by the cosmic
powers to tell the mankind about the exact period of a
transformation on earth, which has also been mentioned in the
ancient scriptures of almost all religions in the world.
Therefore, in this book, I have discussed about
Nostradamus and his prophecies in detail.
His most relevant prophecy for the present period is that
the world will witness a turbulent period of 25 years, which
has been described by him as a war between 'powers of good
and powers of evil' i.e. powers of God and that of the Devil.
Mankind has always been influenced by both these powers,
but now, the powers of evil have virtually taken control over
the minds of humans to such an extent that the entire mankind
is moving towards its destruction. It has, therefore, become
necessary that the divine powers should now intervene and
take the control in their hands. This eventuality has been
described in many scriptures and prophecies starting from the
period of Mahabharata up to the present period.
The details given by Nostradamus regarding the period
of Start of this 25 yearlong war exactly match the 9/11
incident of the terrorist attack in New York. Therefore, it is
clear that this 25 year period that has been described by him,
starts in2001 and ends in 2025. During this period there
would be a certain time frame (during 2012 to 2014), when

About Nostradamus
Michel De Nostradame is generally known by his
Latinized name Nostradamus. He was born on December 14,
1503, at noon, in San Remy de Provence, in France. His
family's faith was Judaism, but they were converted to be
Catholics even when Nostradamus was a child. All his life he
remained a devoted Catholic and was a conscious and faithful
devotee of God. He once wrote everything proceeds from the
divine power of Almighty God, from whom all goodness
emanates.
While growing up, he received education in
Languages, Astronomy, Mathematics and Arts. He started
the study of Medicine in 1522, and obtained his bachelor's
degree in 1525 from the Mont Pellier School of Medicine.
During his studies of Medicine he also studied Astrology,
and after completing his studies, he became more famous
as an astrologer rather than a doctor. Later, he devolved
himself deep in study of occult sciences and developed
mystic powers to see the future and then used these powers
in his prophetic writings.
Unfortunately, Southern France was gripped by an
epidemic of plague at that time. Nostradamus, therefore,
decided to help the victims of this disease, and moved from
place to place using his knowledge of medicine as well as his
occult powers to cure the patients. Soon his reputation as a
healer grew, and he became famous for his unconventional
treatments.
-34-
dedication, to his son and to the King, he has made it fairly clear
that such prophetic powers were given to him for the benefit of
mankind. This means that he wanted to convey a message, at
appropriate time, to save the humanity. This message would
certainly be clear enough for everyone to understand, or at least
to his scholars, who in turn, will convey it to all.
I feel that he wanted this message to be delivered in time
before the beginning of the said 25 yearlong period (year
2001), as it will be the most disastrous period on earth, and at
that time, the world will need his counsel.
As explained later in the book, the events leading to this
period, and its possible effects, have all been deciphered and
inferred by the Nostradamus scholars from his book of
prophecies, even before the happening of these events.
Such predictions were very difficult for the past events.
Moreover, after 1985 (the passing of Halley's comet near
the Earth) so many of Nostradamus prophecies have been
deciphered and predicted by the Nostradamus scholars
correctly; it proves that the great astrologer had compiled his
predictions in such a manner that he would draw full attention
of the world at the appointed date and time.
It has been the endeavor of Nostradamus believers, like
me, to decipher the works of this great seer, through which
fate is delivering us a helping hand at the time when we are
nearing a crisis. The message is clear. We will be given one
final chance to determine our destiny; we can choose to take
that chance or, decide to perish. Refer to Century-9, Quatrain
44 in his book of prophecies.
Century- 9, Q-44
Leave, leave, go forth out of Geneva, all,
Saturn of gold, shall be changed into Iron,

He Wanted To Warn Us
One more point is also important; Nostradamus has used
his prophetic powers to tell us only about the impending
-38-
the Second, little did the king realize that the book contained
accurate predictions about his death, death of his adversary
who would accidentally kill him, and also the misfortune
awaiting his family.
But soon, the prophecy concerning the king, given in
Century-1, Quatrain-35, was deciphered and it was
understood by many of the king's courtiers that the old lion to
be killed by the young lion, as mentioned in the prophecy,
was none other than King Henry himself. The prophecy is
given as under :
Century 1, Q- 35
The young lion shall overcome the old one,
In martial field by a single duel,
In golden cage he shall put out his eye,
Two wounds from one, then he shall die a cruel death.
Queen Catherine, wife of King Henry, asked Nostradamus
about the prophecy. His philosophical reply was that he wrote
whatever he saw in his vision. However, the king believed that
there was no danger to him, because he would never go to a
battlefield.
But, had he read and properly understood another
prophecy in Century 3, Quatrain 30 (given below) he would
have known that by martial field Nostradamus did not mean
battlefield, instead he meant field of martial games.
Century- 3, Q-30
He who during the struggle with weapon in martial deed,
Had carried the prize before his better,
By night six shall abuse him in his bed,
Being naked and without harness he shall suddenly be
surprised.
-41-
In this final bout, once the king failed to lower his golden
visor in time and, accidentally the wooden lance of
Montgomery, the 'young lion', broke and one of the splinters
pierced the eye of King Henry putting out his eye and
penetrating his brain and, thus inflicting two wounds. After
suffering for ten agonizing days, King Henry, as predicted by
Nostradamus, died a cruel death.
The Earl of Montgomery was afterwards beheaded for
leading a movement of Protestants against the Catholic
regime. Catherine, the queen of Henry II, ordered his killing
to avenge the death of her husband. He fled to England, but
came back later and surrendered under the condition that he
would be pardoned, but the Queen sent six men of her secret
guard who surprised him in his bedroom in a helpless
condition and got him arrested. He was later killed. All this
happened exactly in same manner as described by
Nostradamus many years back.
Wife of Henry II
Nostradamus has also described the fate of Queen
Catherine (wife of Henry II) after death of her husband in the
said martial game, in Century-6, Quatrain-63.
Century- 6, Q-63
The lady shall be left to reign alone in the kingdom
By the unique one extinguished first on the bed of honor:
Seven years she will be weeping in grief,
After, she will live long in the reign by grandeur.
Queen Catherine actually went into a state of mourning from
1559 to 1566, exactly for seven years after her husband died in
1559. After that, she reigned as Queen Regent from 1566 to 1589. *
had said, time and again, that he was writing these prophecies
for the benefit of mankind, yet no serious effort has been
made to analyse his prophecies from the point of view of
deriving the said benefit that Nostradamus wanted the
mankind to have from his works
The whole idea of my research on Nostradamus has been
to analyse his works and to find the remedies that the cosmic
powers wanted to suggest us through him in the time of our
crises. .

(Chapter- 7)
ACCURACY OF NOSTRADAMUS
PROPHECIES
First, we examine the accuracy of those Nostradamus
prophecies which describe the events leading to the 25
yearlong turbulent periods from 2001 to 2025.
Peaceful period after the Second World War
Certain period after the end of Second World War was to be a
peaceful period (before the start of a war of terrorism), which has
been described in following Quatrain.
Century-1, Q-63
Pestilences extinguished, the world becomes smaller,
For a long time the lands will be inhabited peacefully.
People will travel safely through the sky (over) land and
seas,
And then wars shall begin anew
After the Second World War and its ill effects are over,
people will live peacefully for a long time. So much progress
will be made in the means of transport that everyone will be
able to travel safely by land, air and sea. (In the period of
Nostradamus, no one even thought of traveling through the
sky, and through sea, very few could travel.) He had
envisioned a period when people (everyone) will be able to do
it. Then, the wars will restart.
Century- 1, Q-15
Mars shall threaten all of us with war
Seventy times blood shall be shed
-49-
Revenge of U.S.A.
Century- 6, Q-98
Ruin that happens to vandals will be terrible.
Their great city will be tainted with a pestilent deed,
They shall plunder sun and moon, and violate their
temples,
And two rivers shall be reddened with the running blood.
Ruin to those, who caused this vandalism, will be terrible. The
Century- 1, Q-36
Too late the Monarch will repent,
That he did not put his adversary to death.
But he will soon come to agree to far greater things,
Which will cause all his line to die.
The Monarch (President Bush of USA) will repent that he
could not kill his adversary earlier. But, he will soon order the
killing of his entire group (of terrorists).
-58-
Conclusion
I have mentioned earlier in this book that it is not
sufficient only to decode the prophecies of Nostradamus,
but we must also decipher the message he wanted to
convey. He has painted a real grim situation of the world if
this war of terrorism is to continue in the manner predicted by
him. So, can anything be done about it, or the events will
occur as he had predicted?
The first question that comes to mind is that how anyone
can see the events that are yet to occur? I think that there is
an answer to this riddle in Indian philosophy. The future
events first occur in 'Sookhshma', which can be explained as a
metaphoric yet existing plane at an 'Abstract Level'. Then the
events manifest at the time of their occurrence. Perhaps, by a
supreme effort we can bypass that level, and future can be
changed. But as I have said earlier, it will not be easy at this
-61-
Germ Warfare
It is said that during the Mahabharata period in India,
Karna used 'Germ Warfare' on the cows of King Drupada. The
technology of this warfare was taught to him by Lord
Parasuram, which should have been used only at the time of
war. But Karna, enraged by the fact that he was not allowed to
participate in 'swayambara' (process of choosing of
bridegroom by the bride) of Draupadi, used it on the cows of
Drupada, and made them sick. The cows cursed Karna for his
misuse of the technique of Germ Warfare and as a result of
that curse, a wheel of his chariot was stuck in mud during the
Mahabharata war, and he was killed.
Nostradamus may or may not have read Mahabharata, but
the great seer has certainly indicated the use of germ warfare
during the war to take place in the aftermath of terrorist attack
on U.S. cities.
USA has ever been vigilant to the predictions of
Nostradamus and it is a well-known fact that during World War
II, Allied Forces got the interpretation of his prophecies
published and distributed to their soldiers in order to boost their
morale. The interpretations envisioned their victory and defeat
of Hitler, which actually did happen. Famous American Film
Company MGM also produced a small film during the Second
-63-
Revolution in Russia
Nostradamus described another important event of this
period, i.e. revolution in Russia, in following Quatrains :
Century- 5, Q-26
The Slavic Nation shall by martial luck,
Be raised to so high a degree,
They shall change their Prince, and elect
one from their province,
They shall cross the sea with an army
raised in the mountains.
The Slavic Nation (Russia), by a military revolution, shall
change their form of government, and they will grow to be a
great power and invade many countries.
Century- 1, Q-14
Slavic people's requests for dance and books,
Being kept prisoners by princes & lords,
In future, idiots without heads,
Shall be received by divine prayers
The request of Slavic (Russian) people for dance and
books, i.e. freedom to live the way they like, will not be
fulfilled till they are prisoners of princes & lords. But, in
future also, they are destined to get idiots as their leaders, who
will not have any faith in divine powers. After that, they will
get the freedom of religion. Nostradamus, himself a
conscientious devotee of God, here condemns those, who will
try to suppress religion.
Formation of Israel
Another important event, the formation of Israel, is given
in following Quatrain :
-68-
Century-3, Q-97
A new law shall occupy a new land;
Around Syria, Judea and Palestine.
The great barbarian empire will crumble;
Before the century of sun is finished
A new country (Israel) will be formed in the area known
as Palestine. A savage empire will trouble it, but that empire
will be defeated (by Israel) before twentieth century is
finished.
Century-2, Q-19
Newcomers will build a place without a fence,
And shall occupy a place that was not then habitable.
They shall at their pleasure take fields, houses and towns.
There shall be famine, plague, war, and a long arable
field
The newcomers (Israelis) will build their country in a
place, which will not be habitable. But they will make it
habitable and arable (fit for farming) fighting against all odds
e.g. war, famine and plague. This prediction is also
remarkable in the sense that conversion of non-arable land by
the Israelis into agricultural land is considered to be a miracle
of modern age.
Besides above, there are many Quatrains, which have
clearly matched with the events e.g. Quatrains depicting rise
and fall of Napoleon, Hitler, Mussolini, and other leaders.
Napoleon
During the period covered by his prophecies
Nostradamus has described three Anti-Christs (evil powers /
persons). An important event of this phase was the advent of
-69-
then, divided the full picture of the event in several parts, and
placed those parts in forms of Quatrains in different chapters
mentioned as Centuries. He also obscured the clear meanings
of his prophecies by using veiled or symbolic language in
some cases. He used symbols for countries and people, e.g.
'Eagle' for USA, 'Sun' for Japan, 'Lion' for Britain, 'Cock' for
France, 'Cross' or 'Bear' for Germans, 'Moon people' or
'People of East' for Indians, 'Caitiffs of Moon' for Muslims,
'Slavic people' for Russians, 'Lords' or 'Masters' for Religions
and Religious Heads, 'Shaven Head' for Pope, etc.
He used cloud, frost, and mist for secrecy; sometimes
secrecy coupled with danger. In his language 'rain' meant
trouble.
He has himself mentioned that he was writing the
prophecies from his period up to the year 3797, and that the
divine power was guiding him when he was writing these
prophecies. He has also mentioned in his letter to King Henry :
I could have set down in every Quatrain the exact time in
which they shall happen, but it would not please everybody,
and much less the interpretation of them. He, therefore, did
not mention the exact time of the events, but left clear hints in
the shape of configuration of planets at the time of happening
of those events, or by connecting them to any other prominent
event of the same period, so that the prophecy could be
accurately deciphered after the event had taken place.
He never misquoted the time of happening of event. If the
given time or the positions of planets does not match with the
event, we can be sure that the seer is describing any other event.
As far as the names of places are concerned, sometimes he had
substituted for the actual place of event, name of such a place
that is of similar nature and surroundings. The name of actual
place will become clear either after the event has happened, or
when the Quatrain is connected to another relevant Quatrain.
For example, refer to the prophecy regarding the assassination
of Rajeev Gandhi given on page -119.

which war may start again. Second World War ended in 1945.
After 57 years we come to year 2002, by which time a long
war of terrorism has already started. And, message of
Nostradamus is clear. Either mankind solves its problems
now, or faces the consequences.
I feel that we can take his message as a message
directly from God.

DIFFERENT PHASES IN THE
PREDICTIONS OF NOSTRADAMUS
For proper decoding and interpretations, his prophecies
can be divided in four phases of time.
First Phase : From the period of publication of these
prophecies to the beginning of the World War I (1555 to
1914). For this period, Nostradamus has described the
events mostly about France and adjoining countries ;
King Henry II ; his family ; Napoleon ; his son ; other
events of this period ; formation of USA ; revolution in
France ; rise of England and spread of its rule all over the
world etc.
Second Phase : From World War I to World War II
(1915 to 1945). Wars ; rise and fall of Hitler & Mussolini ;
failure of League of Nations ; revolution in Russia and
formation of USSR ; invention of aero-planes,
submarines, atom bomb and its use over Japan ; great
advancement of science and its use by common man ;
development of safe means of travel for everyone by land,
air and sea, etc. have been clearly foretold.
Third Phase : After World War II to year 2025.
Predictions for this period include - formation of Israel
and subsequent Christian Muslim conflicts ;
assassination of John F. Kennedy ; escape and return of
Subhash Chandra Bose; rise of terrorism ; formation of a
strong base and later a strong infrastructure of Third
Anti-Christ ; assassinations of Indira Gandhi and Rajeev
Gandhi ; India's nuclear explosion and reply by Pakistan ;
terrorist attacks over New York and counter action by

Population on Earth
According to him, around 2100 B.C, the earth kept submerged
in water for fourteen months. Only one family was saved after this
deluge. The whole population on earth, today, has developed
Main Events
Main events of the period, from the time of Nostradamus to
the period of the beginning of First World War, are detailed below:
Maximum numbers of Quatrains written by Nostradamus
in his book of prophecies were to describe the events going to
happen in future concerning the kings, queens, princes, and
other dignitaries of his period. The important ones have already
been described ; rest of these do not have much relevance today.
French Revolution
Nostradamus has discussed French revolution in great
detail, and most of the Nostradamus scholars agree that
maximum number of Quatrains in his book pertain to this
event which he has detailed quite accurately. In fact, two
hundred thirty years after his death Nostradamus was once
again remembered and adored like a hero, just after the French
Revolution in 1791, when his prophecies in this regard were
understood by people and found to be true.
Other Events
There are many other events of this period described by
Nostradamus, and some of the Quatrains pertaining to these
events are given below :
-81-
Louis XIII
Century- 7, Q-11
The Royal infant shall despise his mother
Eye, feet wounded rude disobedient;
Strange and very bitter news to the lady;
More than five hundred of her people will be killed
The Royal infant (Louis XIII, King of France in 1615,
aged 15 years) made war against his mother, in which, about
five hundred soldiers of queen were killed.
Francis II
Century- 10, Q-39
First son, widow, unfortunate marriage,
Without any children two Isles in discord:
Before eighteen, incompetent age,
For the other one the betrothal will take place while
younger
Francis II, son of Queen Regent Catherine, a widow,
married Mary Stuart of Scotland at the age of fourteen. Their
marriage did not bear any fruit; they were childless. Mary
returned to Scotland causing discord between two islands England and Scotland. Francis II died one and half months
before reaching the age of eighteen. His younger brother
Charles IX was engaged (betrothed) to a girl named Elizabeth
even at a younger age of eleven.
There are numerous other Quatrains also, written by the
great seer for this period (1555 to 1914), which have been
found to be accurate, but do not have much relevance today.
-82-
Mussolini
Nostradamus, it seems, was particularly angry at another
personality of this era, Mussolini, the black shirt leader and a
horrendous dictator of Italy.
Century- 5, Q-29
Liberty will not be recovered,
A proud, villainous, wicked black one will occupy it,
When the matter of the bridge will be opened by Hister (Hitler),
The republic of Venice vexed by the Danube.
-84-
Weapons of War
Nostradamus also described with graphic accuracy the
development of new weapons and other equipments that were
used in the war.
Century- 1, Q-29
When the fish, that is both terrestrial and aquatic,
By a strong wave is cast up on to the shore,
With its shape strange, smooth, and horrific.
From the sea the enemies soon come to the walls.
Clearly, the above Quatrain describes the modern
submarines and other amphibious equipments, which could
run both on water and land, and were used in wars. This
Quatrain gives a clear picture of the invasion of Normandy
beach by amphibious tanks, through which the soldiers
arrived and started scaling the walls of bunkers.
League of Nations
Failure of League of Nations was described as below :
Century- 1, Q-47
The sermons of Lake Leman will become angered,
The days will be extended into weeks,
Then in months, then in years, then they will fail.
The Magistrates will condemn their useless laws.
After the beginning of First World War, the League of
Nations was formed in 1920, and its first meeting was held at
-85-
Day of Judgment
Century- 10, Q-74
Astronomical Accuracy
Another amazing Quatrain that relates to this period is given
below :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------*Indians are known as brown people. On the basis of colour of
its inhabitants, countries of the world are referred as in four
categories White, black, brown, and Yellow.
-89-
Century-10, Q-67
A very mighty trembling in the month of May,
Saturn in Capricorn, Jupiter and Mercury in Taurus:
Venus also, Cancer, Mars in Virgo,
Hail will fall larger than an egg.
A situation describing the ultimate disaster on the earth has
been mentioned in the above Quatrain; amazing part being the
year of such happening for which the planetary configuration
has been given. According to the latest research, the period of
this configuration comes out to be May 3797*, which is the year
described by Nostradamus to be the year of Armageddon in the
letter of dedication to his son. God only knows, how the great
seer was able to calculate in his period of time, the exact
configuration of planets to be in May 3797. During his
period, the world did not even know whether the Sun revolves
round the Earth, or the Earth revolves round the Sun? Also, no
one knew about the phenomenon of 'precession of equinoxes',
and it was virtually impossible for anyone to convert an
assumed or known planetary position of distant future to its
exact date in Christian calendar.
Therefore, we can reach only one conclusion on the basis
of the analysis of this Quatrain ; the divine powers were
guiding Nostradamus when he was writing these prophecies.

PROPHET WHO WILL BRING LASTING
PEACE OF 1000 YEARS
Time and again Nostradamus has described in detail
about the prophet who will bring a lasting peace of 1000 years
from 2025 onwards, after the end of 25 years long war of the
Third Anti-Christ. However, a view has emerged during our
research that this description is in coded language; actually
this description is about a cosmic consciousness that will
emerge and would affect the minds of people to change their
views about life in order to install religion of humanity on
earth.
During this long drawn war, according to Nostradamus,
almost the entire world will be undone and desolate. And
then, the said prophet will bring peace on earth. The relevant
part of letter of dedication to King Henry in this context is
quoted below:
There shall be renewed a reign of Saturn and a golden age. Hearing
the affliction of His people, God the Creator shall command that Satan
be cast into the depths of the bottomless pit, and bound there. Then a
universal peace will commence between God and man. The
ecclesiastical power shall return in force and Satan will remain bound
for around a thousand years, and then will be unbound..
Kalki Avatar :
The Reincarnation of Lord Vishnu
Amazingly, such a situation has also been described in
ancient Indian scriptures (believed to be more than five
thousand years old), when Lord Vishnu, who is preserver of
our universe, will have to come on earth as reincarnation of
-91-
Lord Krishna to save the mankind from evil forces with the
purpose of bringing 'Satyug' (a period of long lasting peace
and truthfulness) on earth. The name of said prophet or the
'Lord Incarnate' has been given as 'Kalki'. The planetary
position at the time of a particular situation when people
on earth will realise the presence of Lord Kalki on earth
has also been described in Indian scriptures.
It has been said in Srimadbhagwat, Bhavishya Puran, and
Kalki Puran that Kalki will ride a fast moving horse and will
annihilate all the evil kings on the earth in order to bring a
lasting period of peace in the world. The horse named Devdutt
(given by Gods), on which Kalki will travel all over the earth,
has also been described as incarnation of 'Garud', which is
known as the vehicle of Lord Vishnu. Therefore, it can be
understood that this horse will be a fast moving flying object
fitted with appropriate weaponry.
It has been mentioned in the Kalki Purana and other
Indian scriptures that the said Avatar will come to earth for
establishing the rule of religion, and will leave for heavenly
abode after his mission is completed. This will be at the bank
of river Ganges somewhere in Himalayas. Nostradamus had
similarly described that said prophet would emerge from an
area where five rivers meet into one.
Since long, Northern India is known as the land of five
rivers, and had been so described in western literature during
the ancient periods. Travelers and explorers from all over the
world have tried to know the geographical location of the
place, which has been described in Indian scriptures as
Shambhal, the place of emergence of Kalki. A number of
scholars, both Indian and Western, have written many books
regarding the geographical location of Shambhal, and the
activities going on in that place. A summary of these details
has been given in 'Epilogue' (chapter no. 18 of this book).
-92-
Century- 1, Q-50
From the aquatic triplicity shall be born,
One who shall make Thursday his holiday,
His fame, praise, rule and power shall grow,
By land and sea to become a tempest to the Orient.
In Asia, the country with aquatic triplicity, i.e. having water
(oceans) on its three sides may be India. The fame, praise, rule,
and power of this man will grow, and he will become a tempest
(storm or hurricane) in the Orient. That He will make
Thursday his holiday may connect him to either Sikhism or
Buddhism. Thursday is connected to 'Guru', and Sikhs revere
their Guru. Buddhists also consider Guru-Purnima as their
most auspicious day. These details, and the fact that he will be
from Asia, is also verified from details mentioned regarding
him in Indian scriptures, and in certain other Quatrains of
Nostradamus, given below :
Century- 6, Q-70
Chief of the world will the great Chyren be,
At first, loved, afterwards feared and dreaded:
His fame and praise will go beyond the heavens,
And with the sole title of Victor will he be contented.
The great Chyren (pronounced as 'Shreen') will be the
chief of world. At first he will be loved (by everyone),
afterwards he will be feared and dreaded (by the evil). His
fame and praise will go beyond heavens. He will not be
contented till his mission is completed and then he will be
called the 'Sole Victor'.
However, the fact, which clinches the issue in the
favour of above argument, is the exact tallying of time of
bringing of lasting peace or 'Satyug' on the earth by this
Avatar. This is deciphered from the prophecies of
Nostradamus as well as from Indian scriptures.
-96-
when all the people on earth will become 'Satvic (Godabiding and truthful) due to the presence of the Lord on
Earth, has been described as conjunction of 'Sun, Moon,
and Jupiter in one zodiac sign in Pushya Nakshatra'.
This conjunction, according to 'Sayana Ephemeris'
(Internationally adopted moving zodiac system), occurs on
th
25 June 2025, and according to Nirayan ephimeris
(according to fixed zodiac system adopted in India) it occurs
th
on 27 July 2014. This means that the golden period would
start in India in 2014, and would be completed in the
entire world by 2025. It also seems logical. If the tenth
incarnation of Lord Vishnu, who will bring lasting peace on
earth, will emerge in India, his influence and effect will come
in India much earlier.
From this period onwards, heart-change of those involved
in the war between 'good and evil' will take place, and the
golden period of 1000 years, as described by Nostradamus
and also given in 'Srimadbhagwat', will commence.
indicated that the empire of Chyren will start or grow from the
said place in India where five rivers meet. It will be in the area
formed by the islands between the said five rivers, which
meet into one, as mentioned in the above Quatrain. It may
either be in Punjab, known as the 'land of five rivers', or in
other places in Northern region of India before Patna
(Bihar), where five rivers merge into Ganges. Delhi comes in
one such area. Therefore, the empire of the said king may start
either in Punjab, or in Delhi or Patna, and expand from there.
It may also mean that the people belonging to five religions in
India will come under his leadership.
The last two lines indicate that due to the fury of the Lord
Incarnate, six sects which are referred as bundles of flax
(religious heads of various sects in India wear cloths made out
of flax) will escape, i.e. various sects separated from the main
stream of religion will join it back.

NOSTRADAMUS ON INDIA
(Prophecies about India)
I feel that Nostradamus has described India right from the
very ancient days, when life started on Earth in this phase of
time, and gradually two cultures evolved on our planet. He
has stated this fact in his letter to king Henry :
For God will take notice of the long barrenness of the Great
Dame, who afterwards shall conceive two principal children.
By great Dame he means earth, and by two principal
children he means two most ancient cultures on the earth
described in the Vedas as 'Aditi' and 'Diti' cultures. Aditi
culture belonged to India (Eastern part of the hemi-sphere),
and Diti culture to the Western part of the hemisphere. Aditi
means the brighter part of the world that receives more energy
from sun as compared to Diti Part. Both parts, once, revered
Sun as God, and the only seat of knowledge for both the
cultures was 'Brahm'. Aditi culture was known as Indra
(Hindu) culture, and Diti culture as Varun culture. With
passage of the time, Varun culture became a combined culture
of Babylonians, Egyptians, and Jews etc.
Now, India is the sole representative of Aditi culture. In
Quatrain-21, Century-1, (described in the last chapter), it has
been described by Nostradamus that the country where the
incident of 'statues drinking milk' occurred, holds immense
mineral wealth. Therefore, this Quatrain indicates that the
mineral wealth of India will bring it in a flourishing condition.
Soft corner for India
Nostradamus was a Christian with a Jew background, and
therefore, his faith in both these sects is clearly reflected in his
-110-
writings. But his soft corner towards India and Hindu gods is
also evident in his prophecies. In Century-44, Q-24
(discussed later in this chapter. While describing the events
pertaining to Ram Janma Bhoomi movement, he had
described Lord Ram as a divine power.
In the following Quatrain he has described India and
Israel as Great Masters.
Century- 2, Q-89
One day the two great masters will be friends,
Their great power will be seen increased:
The new land will be in its flourishing peak,
To the bloody one the number shall be recounted.
Almost all the western interpreters have linked the two
great masters mentioned in the above Quatrain either to USA
and erstwhile USSR, or USA and China. But, this cannot be
correct because Nostradamus has not described countries as
masters. Masters, in his writings, are only religions or
religious heads.
The two principal cultures on the earth, as mentioned by
Nostradamus, have earlier been discussed in this chapter.
Now, the only representative countries of these ancient
cultures are India and Israel. This fact is confirmed in the
third line of the above Quatrain, where 'new land' has been
mentioned. Nostradamus had described Israelis as
'Newcomers' and Israel as 'New Land'. He says that when
Israel will be in a flourishing condition, the great powers of
both India and Israel will increase, and both will benefit from
each other. The bloody one referred in the last line may be
the Third Antichrist, who will be confronted by the
combined power of these two countries.
-111-
possibility of his coming back has been the most famous and
talked about issue of its kind.
2. Netaji had been described in the above Quatrains as leader
of infinite number of people, by which Nostradamus could be
referring to Indians.
3. He would also be commander of an army, which Netaji
was.
4. I.N.A., led by Netaji, operated from Singapore, a country of
foreign customs and strange language to them, as clearly
mentioned by Nostradamus in his above-mentioned
prophecies.
5. It had been stated in the prophecy that five thousand of his
troops would die (name of place being symbolic), and then he
would take a decision to disappear for the time being. Figure
of five thousand is historically correct.
6. Seven years after his disappearance, his fame will be
unblemished. This is the most remarkable part of the
prophecy, because in 1952, seven years after his
disappearance in 1945, Indian parliament was constituted and
one of the first major debates was about the disappearance of
Netaji. This debate revived his unblemished fame. There are
thousands of books and reports on Netaji, and it is generally
believed that Smt.Vijay Lakshmi Pandit wanted to inform the
parliament regarding the whereabouts of Netaji, but refrained
due to certain reasons. However, many other members spoke
freely about this issue and, subsequently a commission of
enquiry was instituted. All this refurbished the image of
Netaji, and it happened in 1952, exactly seven years after his
disappearance, as described by Nostradamus.
7. Nostradamus wrote that the person, described in his
prophecy, would escape safely by sea in a marine grange
(supply ship or submarine). Later he shall return but will
never say yes (to reveal his identity).

Century- 2, Q-52
For several nights the earth will tremble:
In the spring two efforts in succession:
Corinth, Ephesus will swim in the two seas:
War stirred up by two great wrestlers
This is the only other Quatrain in the entire book, in which
the words 'Corinth and Ephesus' have been mentioned.
Obviously, it is to link this Quatrain to the Quatrain described
above. Moreover, use of the word 'efforts' makes it clear that
by trembling of the earth Nostradamus had indicated
explosions. Earthquakes cannot be caused by efforts.
Nostradamus had also indicated the place where the nuclear
tests were conducted by Pakistan through use of the word
'spring'. These tests were conducted at Quetta, a place near to
Pakistan's most famous spring (waterfall).
Here, two wrestlers have been mentioned who will stir up
the war. These have to be two countries, which are ever
fighting like wrestlers. And, one of them will reply by
carrying out two explosions in reply to the explosion carried
out earlier by the other. Christian countries will try to
influence both the countries, which are twins (described as
twin seas). These twin countries may be India and Pakistan,
who will wage a war after carrying out their explosions.
Whether it pertains to Kargil war, or any other war to be
fought by these two in future, remains to be seen. But most
likely, Nostradamus has indicated a big war between the two,
which would convert into the Third World War.
Nostradamus had prophesied that the calamitous war
would start when Mars joins Jupiter in Cancer. This
conjunction occurs in 2002, and again in 2013. Therefore, the
final war on earth that will be between terrorists and rest
of the world might start in 2013. Then, some events may
occur that may move the two great wrestlers India and

GUIDELINES TO INDIA BY NOSTRADAMUS
Avoid full-fledged war with Pakistan for another full
cycle of Jupiter
According to Century-6, Quatrain-24 of Nostradamus'
book of prophecies, a calamitous war will start on earth when
Mars conjoins Sceptre in Cancer. This Quatrain is reproduced
below :
Mars and the Sceptre will be found conjoined
Under Cancer there will be a calamitous war:
Shortly afterwards a new King will be anointed,
One who for a long time will pacify the earth
One of the main purposes of this book is to present the
findings of my research on the works of Nostradamus, and
also on ancient Indian scriptures, in order to assess the future
of the world at large with particular emphasis on India. So far,
I have tried to analyse all the events from New York attack to
escape of Bin Laden from Tora-Bora, and in fact, I have been
able to declare all these events in press conferences before
their occurrence. The Third World War has already started in
2001. It will mainly be a war of terrorism and will last up to
2025. The abovementioned Quatrain indicates the time of
start of the final phase of the calamitous war of this era.
As said earlier, the meaning of 'Sceptre' is Jupiter, and
during the period of 2001 to 2025 the conjunction of Mars and
Jupiter in Cancer occurs twice in 2002, and in 2013.
Therefore, the final phase of war would reach in 2013. And, it
will be the most important war in our phase of time, because
just after its start the Supreme consciousness will take over
the leadership of God's forces in fight against forces of Satan.

VEERA BRAHMENDRA SWAMI
Few years back, very little was known about Veera
Brahmendra Swami outside Southern India. It was due to
research work of eminent scholars like Dr. N. Rajaram,
Pavuluri Sreenivasachary, and Ullasa Mihira that his work
regarding 'KALAGNANAM' (knowledge of future) and the
miracles performed by him during his life are now famous all
over the world. Another researcher of Brahmendra Swamy,
Mr. Shriniwas Deshpande, has not only studied his
prophecies in depth, but has been kind enough to send me
details of his research. I have used the details published by
these scholars here, sometimes in their own words, to
compare the prophecies of Brahmendra Swami with other
prophets.
Affectionately called 'Veeram Bhotalya' by his mother,
Swamy used to impress everyone by his extraordinary
intelligence and spiritual bent of mind even in his childhood.
When he grew up, people started revering him like God due
the miracles he performed to help them. Cosmic Powers,
whenever they incarnate, usually display miracles to
make people heed them and understand what they have
incarnated to tell the mankind.
The miracles performed by him included giving eyesight
to blinds and even life to dead. When a Nawab of his region
tried to test his powers by giving pieces of meat on a plate
covered by cloth, he was astonished to observe that the meat
pieces had turned to flowers when Brahmendra Swamy
removed the cloth. The Nawab realised the powers of Swamy
and donated a piece of land for his Ashram. Annajayya, a
Brahmin disciple, used to look after the Ashram and it was he
who made the prophecies of his master known to public.

BUDDHIST PROPHECIES
Some Buddhist monks have stated that the world will start
plunging in a destructive war around 2012. According to
these monks some extra terrestrial powers (may be cosmic
powers) are watching us every step of the way. They would
intervene in 2012 and save the world from self destruction.
When asked if these powers will show up in reality, they
answered : they will reveal themselves in such a way that
none of us are scared. They will reveal themselves only if they
have to. As our science and technology progresses, we are
destined to see them and interact with them anyway.
Our study group feels that they are revealing us a plan to
save the mankind. This has been discussed in Chapter 14 of
this book. They may further reveal themselves by way of
fulfilling the prophecies regarding the future, or by any other
method they deem fit.
Famous scientist Sir Isaac Newton had said : God gave
the prophecies, not to gratify men's curiosity by enabling
them to fore know things, but that after they were fulfilled
they might be interpreted by the event, and His own
providence, not the interpreters, be thereby manifested to
the world.
What Newton said had also been described in many
scriptures these prophecies are divine messages that are
delivered by God through His messengers to convey
whatever is needed to be conveyed at appropriate time. He
also sends messengers to interpret these prophecies as and
when required. Buddhist monks and lamas have been
theologists of highest order and have been making amazingly
accurate predictions.
-142-
Century-4, Q-52
A Colonel mechanises his ambition
Shall seize upon the great part of the army
Against the prince with a faint invention
And shall be discovered under his flag
Colonel Gaddafi mechanised his ambition to size power
from Prince Idris in Libya in 1971 using army and its
weaponry, and took over the power to rule Libya. The
meaning of last line is not clear, but Dr. N. Rajaram has
interpreted it as : ' He took is position under the flag as the
leader not of his country alone but as the flag bearer of the
resurgent Islam in North Africa'.*
Thus, it seems that the prediction about grabbing the
power by Gaddafi was given by Nostradamus about 500 years
back, but his demise was predicted in Buddhist prophecies
even earlier. It indicates that it is the same cosmic power that
tells the future events to prophets, who in turn tell it to the
mankind as per divine programme.
Blessed One will once again come from the North to the
South. The world of Truth,which started its great path from
Bodhigaya,again shall return to the same sites. We must
accept it simply as it is : the fact that the true teaching shall
leave Tibet, and shall again appear in South. And in all
countries, covenants of Buddha shall be manifested. Really
Great Things are coming
Roerich :" Lama, it seems to me that you speak of
Maitreya; is it not so?"
Lama : "We must not pronounce this mystery. There is much,
which may not be revealed. Because everything divulged
before the destined date, results in untold harm. Even the
greatest Catastrophes may be provoked by such light minded
acts."
Buddhists believe that the teachings of Gautam Buddha,
which were earlier kept at Bodhigaya, were shifted to North
(Tibet) when India was attacked and occupied by foreign
powers opposed to Buddhism. When the time comes, these
scriptures will again travel from North to South (Bodhigaya).
This is likely to happen after liberation of Tibet some time
after 2014.
Another Buddhist prophecy was made by a Lama of
highest order when Tomas met him in Tibet. This meeting has
been detailed by Tomas in his book 'Shambhala : The Oasis of
Light'.
It seems that the Lama who met Tomas was in touch
with those Masters of Shambhal. The Lama told him that
these Masters were worried about the insanity of the humans,
who have fought two world wars and were heading for the
third. If mankind destroys itself, it will take a few million
years to replace, but if the planet is destroyed, it will take a
'manvantra' (long cosmic cycle running into billions of years)
to build and grow it, the Lama said.

DIVINE MESSAGES
When the research of our study group started becoming
known through media, Institution of Engineers (India)
invited us for a discussion on this topic in a meeting held at its
Kanpur Branch in the year 2006. A comprehensive report
based on these discussions with emphasis on divine messages
as understood by the scientific community is given below.
Also, a note from Hindu Occult Research Academy, and
messages from Prof. Kameswara Rao (IIT Kanpur), Prof.
S.K. Nigam (P.S. Institute of Technology), and Justice M.N.
Shukla (former Chief Justice, Allahabad High Court) are
included:
skeptics did not believe him because he could not give solid
proof of existence of supernatural powers.
As the group started their research, to their amazement, they
started getting direct help of supernatural powers, which for
some reason, were keen to prove the Existence of God at this
juncture. The help was in form of guidance resulting in
correct interpretation of future events. The group started
reeling off one accurate prediction after the other in press
conferences before the occurrence of those events. Recently, a
US based Radio site had asked Er. Ashok Ghai in an excusive
interview to predict a future event, and his prediction about
death of MUSAB ZARKAWI, leader of Al-Quaida leader in
Iraq was fulfilled within few days. There were interviews of
eminent Indians like Ratan Tata, Azim Premji, Nandan
Nilikeni, and Shabana Azmi amonst others which were posted
at this radio site. The correctness of Ghai's prediction not
only shot up the interview of Er. Ghai to top of the popularity
chart, but also prompted various agencies, evidently from the
warring countries, to arrange for another interview to know
about the future of the war.
The group keenly studied the prophecies given in literature of
various faiths, and made by Persian Prophet Behram Shah
that he made to Rana of Mewar about one hundred years
back; and also the prophecies of famous French Prophet
Nostradamus. The group found about 50 such prophecies that
proved to be one hundred percent accurate. Even their
interpretations regarding the future events proved to be
accurate. Evidently, some supernatural powers were helping
them in their study. But why?
The reply to this question was already provided by Newton; he
had prophesied that next incarnation of God would be on
earth by the year 2000. Evidently, God's forces were keen to
prove His existence by the time God took over the work of
total change of order in the world by 2014 in India, and by
-149-
where the all relations in families and society have lost their
gravity. There is no serene in holding sexual relationships of
any prohibited class; the lust and greed has taken away the
sweetness of erstwhile trustworthy relationships. Man, today,
is even ready to eat and drink the flesh and blood of fellow
human beings.
Hindus, as they believe by the ancient scriptures like
'Srimadbhagwat' and 'Bhavishya-Puran', are convinced that
the crucial 'Kali-Yuga' phase is none else, but the present one.
The views of a science scholar Ashok Ghai, an engineering
graduate from IIT Roorkee, who has a considerable
background and expertise in research on the prophecies of
Nostradamus and other seers, has traced the similarities from
scriptures of various religions as well. He says 'The Rider
On White Horse' or 'The Second Coming Of Christ' as
described in the Book of Revelations (a part of Bible), or the
'Puranic mention of Muntazir-Ul-Mehdi' (as given in Muslim
scriptures); 'Maitreya' described in Buddhist literature, all
suggest the coming of one and the same incarnation of God.
The reference as 'Har-Joo Hamander aayenge' by Guru
Gobind Singh, and other seers including Soordas, Chndra
Bardai, Jaidev, and Acharya Shri Ram Sharma, also
acknowledge in their writings about 'the waiting for the
Great'.
Sir Isaac Newton, great scientist of our era, had also done
extensive research in this regard, and had fixed the time of
incarnation of the said prophet to be around the year 2000 AD.
Mr. Ghai, puzzled with his findings from various prophecies
that Lord Vishnu has already incarnated and is on earth,
resorted to an ancient methodology to quench his thirst of the
knowledge about the Kalki Avatar. It was on the fateful day of
29th September 2003 that Mr. Ghai, after his regular pooja,
-153-
sent a message to the 'Universal Mind' through a thoughtprocess, as relied by the practitioners of Theosophical Society
i.e. by keeping a piece of paper at his place of worship inviting
some sort of symbolic affirmation by the divine powers with
regard to his query.
When Ghai reviewed the paper next day, he found that a spot
of about three inches diameter has appeared on the paper. By
the look, he was amazed with the idea that this must contain a
symbolic answer. Smelling some very important and
compact revelation, he handed over the paper to Dr. NSV
Kameswara Rao, a senior professor at IIT Kanpur; who, after
examining it, handed over the same to a team of computer
experts. They scanned, enlarged, and examined the spot that
has appeared by itself on the paper, and found that the
contents had very much ambient to be interpreted. Though it
would take a long time to completely decode the contents of
the mysterious figure, still it was possible to figure out clear
images of Lord Shiva, Parwati, Krishna, Ganesha, Hanuman,
Kali, Gautam Buddha, Mahatma Gandhi, Guru Nanak, and
the Kalki Avatar, amongst others. The picture also showed
symbolic representations of stories given in Vedas and
Puranas depicting relations between men, God & His forces.
One thing is sure by the emergence of this picture; God
assures us by his positive presence. As Mr. Ghai, who is also
the author of a book and substantial literature on
Nostradamus and other seers, is deep in his research
regarding the crucial phase of the present war of terrorism
described by Nostradamus to enter a calamitous phase soon to
convert into a world war, it is not for the first time that such
miraculous happenings have occurred to him or other
members of his study group.
On several earlier occasions also, members of his study group

engineers, and persons having knowledge of ancient

Message
I have thoroughly studied the research work of Sri. Ashok
Ghai and I have great pleasure in recording my reaction to my
meetings with him. He always overwhelms me with his
profound knowledge of spiritual experiences. His cosmic
vision is deep and infectious. By his contact many
transcendental truths are revealed to us.
How I wish that his sage advice and company could have
larger ramifications and a myriad people would benefit by his
great wisdom. I take every word uttered by him as nothing
short of a revelation. May his intuitive experiences escalate
and gradually enlighten all humanity.

Message from Prof. S.K. Nigam (P.S.Institute of
Technology)
Dear Mr. Ghai,
This has ref. to cosmic pictures/divine messages received by
you on paper in your pooja place where you perform prayers
to God. I have seen the pictures, and the comments of Dr.
N.S.V. Kameswara Rao of IIT, Kanpur (his letter dated 12th
jan.2004).I agree with the comments of Prof. Rao, that the
pictures can not be made humanly.
As regards the analysis of their formation, my view is that
science has its limitation, in explaining it. The observed
phenomenon in science is confined to processes in which
matter and or energy in their physical forms are involved,
whereas prayers though potent and blissful are nonphysical,
and outside the ambit of science.
with regards,
Dr. S.K.Nigam

THERE IS A DIVINE PLAN TO SAVE THE
HUMANITY.
J. Krishnamurthy, a famous philosopher and theosophist,
who is considered by many as the person closet to being an
incarnation of God born in India after Gautam Buddha, has
spoken about a divine plan perfected by the God for
humanity. As written by him in his book 'At the Master's Feet'
the plan is so beautiful that whosoever has understood it can
not think about anything else. If a transformation of mankind
is to be completed by 2025, God's forces must have developed
and put into action that plan by now. The plan is also known
as 'Doctrine of Heart' that was developed by the cosmic
hierarchy (the powers of Shambhal), and was narrated about
40 years back to the Australian writer Andrew Tomas in Tibet
by a Lama and his two companions. Some miracles that
were shown by the Lama during the discourse with Tomas
proved beyond doubt that the he was a cosmic power of
the highest order and had miraculously contacted Tomas
for delivering the divine messages to the mankind. Some
extracts from the interview of the said Lama by Andrew
Tomas, as given in his book 'Shambhala: The Oasis of Light'
are given below.
Lama :The mankind is a battlefield of celestial forces .A
war of Worlds is raging now and let us hope that man will not
side with the Forces of Darkness for then he shall be removed
by the Lord of Karma from the face of earth.
An appeal must be made to disseminate the Doctrine of
Heart for this alone can save the planet.
Andrew Tomas : 'Only a few would listen'.
Lama : That does not matter. Our planetary Ultimatum has to
reach all men on earth. At this crossing of the roads humanity
-159-
has to choose between a path going down into the pit of moral
decay or one that is ascending to stars. This is the time of a
terrestrial emergency. If the warning is ignored and the
masses continue to tread the present path, siding with the
Prince of Darkness, then the Cosmic Hierarchy will take the
challenge and Radiant Ruler of Shambhalla will destroy all
evil on the planet.
Tomas: 'Do you expect me to present these legends and
prophecies to the public at large and still be considered sane'?
Lama: In this century the nations of the world have fought
two World Wars and might fight another before its end*.Are
they sane? You will have to do it, and there is to be other
voices, for so much is at stake, the destiny not only of
mankind, which can be replaced in a few million years, but
that of a planet which took a Manvantara** to build and
grow.,
Tomas: 'Any moralizing, any appeal for a reform, usually
provokes the roar of the mob.'
Lama : The people of earth must understand that the time
of crucifixions and of gentle prophets preaching to raving
crowds is ended. This time Arhats will speak with lightning,
thunder and star showers! The Epoch of Shambhalla is here!

Financial collaboration with any country is job of the
government, but we the citizens can also play a role regarding
effective use of mineral resources and other factors for
financial upliftment of our country. For this, we need new
avenues to provide employment to masses and thereby
increase our production and to maintain a healthy rate of
increase in our GDP.
During my study of Nostradamus, many scholars
encouraged by the accuracy of these predictions and the
possibilities arising there from, have joined me. Encouraged
by these predictions that India will, one day, be a super power
and also a world-guru once again, we started to look for ways
and means to fulfill this objective. We felt : when the
countries which possessed meager resources compared to
India, who are thriving on brain-power imported from India,
who do not posses such strong social fabric as India
possesses, who can not boast of such ancient wisdom and
philosophy; have made so much progress, then why are we

Mineral Wealth
The mineral wealth of India is talked of with awe even by
the richest countries of the world. At present, many raw
materials are being exported from India, which are value
added in other countries. Experts call India as a country that is
floating on oil. Also, only few countries can match our wealth
of water. Not only the rivers that flow from mountains to sea,
but also the vast underground reservoirs recently located with
the help of satellites, tell us about our wealth of water and
immense potential in the field of hydro-electric power
generation. Besides many other minerals, India has largest
deposits of Thorium, which is one of the basic raw materials
for atomic energy resources. All this, coupled with our huge

Cottage Industry
Mahatma Gandhi had wisely said : 'There shall be no
room for machinery that would displace human labour in its
hands'. This rule aptly applies to our cottage industry. It is a
misnomer that small, especially cottage units, cannot survive
in competition with mechanical units. There is worldwide
demand of hand made articles. Only, proper vision is
required. We can take a leaf out of the book of Raja Martand
Singh, who, inspired with the Gandhian philosophy, is
striving to place Khadi on the world map in order to provide
employment to millions of workers in cottage industries, and
is immensely successful in his efforts. Apart from Khadi,
there are numerous other indigenous crafts that can succeed
in the world market. Our team has conducted some
experiments in this regard, and the results are very optimistic.
Role of NGOs
NGOs can play vital role in development of cottage
.
industries, if properly managed.
Kala Raksha, a Gujarat based NGO has been immensely
successful in improving the lot of artisans even in remote
villages of the state. Founded by an American lady Judy
Fraser, who fell in love with the craftsmanship of Guajarati
villagers when she visited India many years back, has made it
a mission of her life to train the villagers regarding the
modern designs and remunerative ways of earning.
Kala Raksha has also opened a school for training village
artisans in different fields of craftsmanship, and is being
helped by leading fashion designers of India and many other
countries. This NGO has drawn the attention of many

Housing
The biggest problem facing our country is
unemployment. There can be hundreds of avenues that can be
utilised for providing employment to our youth, but most
potent amongst them is housing. Some time back I got an
opportunity to present a research paper regarding housing at
a seminar held by IIT, BHU at Varanasi. While the other
participants discussed the technical aspects of housing, the
topic of my paper was to develop a 'movement for
construction of houses in India' in order to solve the
problem of unemployment. I am glad that the government has
already implemented some of the aspects discussed in that
seminar, which was attended by the top hierarchy of our
country connected to the field of housing. But few such steps
will not solve the total problem ; a complete and
comprehensive scheme will have to be perfected and
implemented.
Many of my friends including the members of Roorkee
University Alumni Association (now, IIT Roorkee),
Builders Association of India, Hindu occult Research
Academy, Sandhan (a Philosophical Circle of Kanpur), and
other individuals are working on developing comprehensive
schemes for development in various fields in order to boost
the economy of our country. A basic scheme regarding
development of housing sector in rural and semi-urban areas
has been discussed later in this chapter. Housing is only one
such field ; there are many more such avenues that can be
explored to solve our unemployment problem.

Divine Guidance
Accuracy of predictions made by us regarding many
events has confirmed that the cosmic powers are guiding us.
In fact, whenever we slack in our efforts, astonishing miracles
occur to us thereby confirming that this job has been entrusted
to us and we have to carry it out irrespective of people
believing or disbelieving us.
Many eminent persons have urged for a thorough probe
to cull out the cosmic guidance from these messages. I have
written many times to the Govt. of India to officially
undertake further research in this regard; but have received no
reply. Perhaps the authorities feel that this research involves
religious matters, and therefore, the government should keep
out of it. If it is true, I would term it as a self defeating attitude.
It is perhaps for the first time in the history of mankind
that such direct messages are being received from the powers

WORLD POWERS OF FUTURE
Who would be the most powerful nation of the world after
the expected regeneration of humanity? I have tried to reply
this question on the basis of Nostradamus prophecies. He had
predicted that the power would shift to brown countries. A
number of Nostradamus scholars have been working on his
prophecies, and some of them have developed their own
theories for deciphering these prophecies. I feel that we must
give due regard to all such theories and consider the
possibilities arising out of them.
One such scholar was Henry C. Roberts who published
his accounts of these prophecies in 1947. This writer certainly
had some intuitive powers about the works of Nostradamus.
According to him, Nostradamus dated some of his prophecies
from the date of Council of Nicaea, i.e. 325 A.D.
Century- 1, Q-48
When twenty years of the Moon's reign have passed
Another will hold his reign for seven thousand years.
When the exhausted Sun takes up his cycle
Then will be fulfilled my prophecy.
Century-1, Q-49
Long before these happenings
The people of East, influenced by the Moon,
In the year 1700 will cause many to be carried away,
And will almost subdue the Northern section.
In Q-48 given above, Nostradamus had indicated the
time when life on earth would end. In another quatrain (Q-49)
-185-
-186-
-188-
(Chapter 17)
SHIFTING OF LIFE FROM EARTH TO
ANOTHER PLANET OF OUR SOLAR
SYSTEM
Nostradamus has clearly described the year when life on
earth would end as 3797 A.D. Another prophet Baba Vanga
had also given the same date when the life would be shifted
from earth to some other planet. Nostradamus had not given
any detail of the life after 3797, saying that this period was out
of his vision. But Baba Vanga had described the happenings
on that planet too till the year 5000 A.D.
If the prophecies of both these prophets are correct
regarding this point, then planet earth would lose its
atmosphere conductive to life (may be for some time); the life
would be sustained on another planet till it again could be
brought back to earth.
According to some scholars, life remains on earth in
cycles of about 11,000 (eleven thousand) years. Then for a
period of about 2,000 (two thousand) years, life can not
sustain here. This has also been explained in Mayan Great
Cycles.
Perhaps the present cycle ends in the year 3797.
Therefore, the cosmic powers which established life on earth
and are responsible for its protection and evolution, would
guide the mankind to establish colonies on moon and / or
some other planet where life could survive for the
required period, and then brought back to earth. The
development of space age technologies and our sojourns to
other planets perhaps indicate the wishes of our creators.
May be the golden period of one thousand years is being
brought on earth so that we could forget our differences and

EPILOGUE
The study of Nostradamus and other prophets vis--vis
Indian scriptures reveals that the second coming of Christ, or
the birth of a prophet considered as the second incarnation of
Lord Krishna will actually be emergence of a superconsciousness. As we are habitual of worshipping the cosmic
powers in form of deities, this consciousness has been
described as Kalki Avatar in Indian scriptures Srimadbhagwat and Kalki Puran.
revolving around the Earth and were losing their orbits due to
gravitational force of our planet. According to them, some of
those asteroids that had come quite near the Earth were bound
to hit us at some time or the other.
One such asteroid was named was named 'Geographus',
and according to the calculations given by those scientists,
Geographus should have hit the Earth by now. Although, the
USA and Russia are reported to have prepared a contingency
plan to counter any such eventuality, but it has not been used
till now. In fact, no such heavenly body has hit our planet
since long, which could have wiped out the entire life. When
there are so many big asteroids revolving around the
Earth and are losing their orbits, how it is that none of
these bodies have hit us for such a period that life is
surviving here.
About one hundred years back a meteorite fell in
Tunguska area in USSR, and caused devastation in about
2000 sq Km area. This meteorite's crash took place in summer
of 1908. An enormous volcanic ball rushed over the sky with
terrifying wallop and thunder-like sound. All the citizens
were frightened to death and scared to move out of their
houses. According to a Russian scientist Yuriy Lavbin A
flight of a flamy alien ended up in an hour in deserted taiga
area. In a matter of seconds an explosive wave spread for 40
kilometers, devastating everything living around.
It was not until many years later that this Siberian scientist
Lavbin and his colleagues set up an expedition to the place of
the meteorite's crash. They searched carefully through the
river banks and found there some unusual quartz boards. Mr.
Lavbin states that such solid stones do not exist in the Earth.
He said about the experiment that was taken on the crystals:
scientists tried to put some of the same drawing that were on
the stones initially with a laser machine.

THE TWO LETTERS OF DEDICATION
WRITTEN BY NOSTRADAMUS
Nostradamus wrote two letters, each along with two
editions of his book of prophecies. The first was written to his
son Caesar as 'letter of dedication' presented with first edition
of his book in 1555. The second letter was presented to King
Henry II along with the second edition of his book in 1558.
There are several discrepancies in the said two letters
published in various editions of his books that were published
later. After going through the various texts, I have collated the
texts of these letters and tried to establish a text as authentic as
it was possible. But, it must be still kept in mind that
Nostradamus had tried to keep the language of these letters as
un-intelligible as possible, so that his message could only be
deciphered at the appropriate time.
Nostradamus has mentioned in these letters that he was
writing continuous prophecies from his time to the time of
next deluge i.e. 3797 A.D. After that there will be no life on
Earth, and may be after a certain period, as happened after the
previous deluge (more than two thousand years before
Christ), life will restart on earth. But, it seems that the Unseen
Power has not yet written the script of that period, or had not
told it to Nostradamus, and therefore, Nostradamus could not
see or write anything about that phase of time.
It is not able that the Indian sages Vedvyas and Shukdeo
had also written about the events that are going to occur till
the next deluge. In Srimadbhagwat and Bhavishya Puran,
they had mentioned the events starting from millions of years
back when the world was created, but their descriptions also
end at the said period of next Armageddon. It may be for the

For God's mercy will be poured forth only for a certain time,
my son, until the majority of my prophecies are fulfilled and
this fulfillment (sic) is complete. Then several times in the
course of the doleful tempests the Lord shall say: 'Therefore I
shall crush and destroy and show no mercy'; and many other
circumstances shall result from floods and continual rain
of which I have written more fully in my other prophecies,
composed at some length, not in a chronological sequence,
in prose, limiting the places and times and exact dates so
that future generations will see, while experiencing these
inevitable events, how I have listed others in clearer
language, so that despite their obscurities these things
shall be understood by the men coming after, may see and
know that those accidents are certainly come to pass, as
we have marked in other places, speaking more clearly,
although the explication be involved in obscurity : When
the time arrives for the removal of ignorance, the case
shall be more clear.
So in conclusion, my son, take this gift from your father
Michael Nostradamus, who hopes you will understand
each prophecy in every Quatrain herein. May Immortal
God grant you a long life of good and prosperous
happiness?

his nose, may reply that the rhythm is as easy as the sense is
difficult. That, O Most Humane king, is because most of the
prophetic Quatrains are so difficult that there is no way to be
found for interpreting them.
Nevertheless, I wanted to leave a record in writing of the
years, towns, Cities and regions in which most of the events
will come to pass, even those of the year 1585 and of the year
1606, reckoning from the present time, which is March 14,
1557, and going far beyond to the events which will take
place at the beginning of the seventh millenary, when, so far
as my profound astronomical calculations and other
knowledge have been able to make out, the adversaries of
Jesus Christ and his Church will begin to multiply greatly.
I have calculated and composed all during choice hours of
well disposed days, and as accurately as I could, all when
Minerva was free and not unfavorable. I have made
computations for events over almost as long a period to
come as that which has already passed, and by these they
will know in all regions what is to happen in the course of
time, just as it is written, with nothing superfluous added,
although some may say, There can be no truth entirely
determined concerning the future.
It is quite true, Sire, that my natural instinct has been inherited
from my forebears, who did not believe in predicting, and that
this natural instinct has been adjusted and integrated with
long calculations. At the same time, I freed my soul, mind
and heart of all care, solicitude and vexation. All of these
prerequisites for presaging I achieved in part by means of
the brazen tripod.
There are some who would attribute to me that which is not
mine at all. The eternal God alone, who is the thorough
searcher of humane hearts, pious, just and merciful, is the true
judge, and it is to him I pray to defend me from the calumny of
evil men. These evil ones, in their slanderous way, would

After this the barren Dame, of greater power than the second,
will be received by two of the nations. First, by them made
obstinate by the onetime masters of the universe. Second, by
the latter themselves.
The third people will extend their forces towards the circuit of
the East of Europe where, in the Pannonias, they will be
overwhelmed and slaughtered. By sea they will extend their
Myrmidons and Germans to Adriatic Sicily. But they will
succumb wholly and the Barbarian sect will be greatly
afflicted and driven out by all the Latin.
Then the great Empire of the Antichrist will begin where once
was Attila's empire and the new Xerxes will descend with
great and countless numbers, so that the coming of the Holy
Ghost, proceeding from the 48th degree, will make a
transmigration, chasing out the abomination of the Christian
Church, and whose reign will be for a time and to the end of
time.
This will be preceded by a solar eclipse more dark and
gloomy than any since the creation of the world, except that
after the death and passion of Jesus Christ, and from him until
now. And it will be in the month of October that the great
revolution will be made and it will be such that one will think
the gravity of the earth has lost its natural movement and that
it is to be plunged into the abyss of perpetual darkness.
In the spring there will be omens, and thereafter, extreme
changes, reversals of realms and mighty earthquakes. These
will be accompanied by the procreation of the new Babylon,
miserable daughter enlarged by the abomination of the first
holocaust. It will last for only seventy-three years and seven
months.
Then there will issue from the stock, which had remained
barren for so long, proceeding from the 50th degree, one who
will renew the whole Christian Church. A great place will be

they make amongst them that all the East will tremble in terror
of these brothers of North, who are yet not brothers.
By this discourse, Sire, I present these predictions almost
with confusion, especially as to when they will take place.
Furthermore, the chronology of time which follows conforms
very little, if at all, with that which has already been set forth.
Yet it was determined by astronomy and other sources,
including Holy Scriptures, and thus I could not err. If I had
wanted to date each Quatrain, I could have done so. But
this would not have been agreeable to all, least of all to
those interpreting them, and was not to be done until Your
Majesty granted me full power to do so, lest calumniators
be furnished with an opportunity to injure me.
Anyhow, I count the years from the creation of the world to
the birth of Noah as 1,506, and from the birth of Noah to the
completion of the Ark, at the time of the universal deluge, as
600 (let the years be solar, or lunar, or a mixture of the two) I
hold that the Sacred Scriptures use solar years. And at the end
of these 600 years, Noah entered the Ark to be saved from the
deluge. This deluge was universal, and lasted one year and
two months. And 295 years elapsed from the end of the flood
to the birth of Abraham, and 100 from then till the birth of
Isaac. And 60 years later Jacob was born. 130 years elapsed
between the time he entered Egypt and the time he came out.
Between the entry of Jacob into Egypt and the exodus, 430
years passed. From the exodus to the building of the Temple
by Solomon in the fourth year of his reign, 480 years.
According to the calculations of the Sacred Writings, it was
490 years from the building of the Temple to the time of Jesus
Christ. Thus, this calculation of mine, collected from the holy
writ, comes to about 4,173 years and 8 months, more or less.
Because there is such a diversity of opinions, I will not go
beyond Jesus Christ.
I have calculated the present prophecies according to the
order of the chain, which contains its revolution, all by
