Haqiqatul-Wahi (The Philosophy of Divine Revelation) — Page 657
A BRIGHT SIGN-SIGN NUMBER 197 657 The translation of this [above] public Announcement is as follows: [This Eng- lish translation is based on the Urdu translation by the Promised Messiah as on page 523 of Ḥaqiqatul-Waḥī, Rūḥāni Khaz’äin, vol. 22, published in 2008. ] A Faultless and (Innocent) Avatar of God i. e. Innocent Khalifah [Vicegerent] of Allah The people of the world know well that all kinds of evils are rampant in our part of the world; for instance, women being left as widows and the resultant evils are all so well known that every child is aware of them. The spiralling cost of grains and clarified butter and besides this, the hundreds of afflictions that have fallen upon our land of the Aryas (India) is beyond description. You know it well that you lack the power and prowess that your ancestors possessed; the courage, strength, and reasoning that they possessed are conspicuous by their absence in the next generation. Nor is there any hope of improvement in the future. Therefore, my friends, if you possess any desire of being saved from this grave affliction, do contemplate and think about His Highness, the Faultless Vicegerent of Allah, for Allah the Exalted always supports His righteous servants and is ever eager to comfort His Chosen ones. And the Vicegerent will appear in this very age to put an end to all evils and evildoers. In case any friend thinks that this is only the beginning of Kalyug— the Age of Falsehood and Fabrication—and that the birth of His Highness is decreed to take place at the end of Kalyug, then please do reflect if anything worse could happen in Kalyug than that:. Wives leave their husbands and hanker after strangers; • • Children are no longer obedient and loyal to their parents; Parents fail to think of their children as being their children. In brief, everything is turned away from its proper state. If anyone still insists that the time has not yet come in accordance with the scriptures, the answer, my dear friends, is that the advent of the Chosen One of God has always remained beyond the understanding of: any scholar. The advent of Krishna would take place in the same way. He will re- ceive the same succour and help from God as was received earlier by hundreds of other chosen ones of God. For instance, the time and date for the help and support of the earlier Bhagat [saint] had not been fixed but after Narasingh's advent had taken place and after he had killed Diat Rāj, it was realized that God had made His appearance in support of His chosen one. Similar is the case of the coming of the Prophet of the age of Kalyug who is responsible for the peace of the entire world.
