12 Shia Imams

Question: Shia Muslims believe in 12 Imams who came after the Prophet Muhammad. They believe that they have been very advanced spiritual persons. The first Imam is Ali, the cousin of Muhammad, and the next Imams are from the same family that continue to the twelfth one. The last Imam named Mahdi is claimed to have become absent from the people, but still alive and connected to some special people and will appear again to rescue the world.

This belief is very similar to some Christians’ ideas about Jesus. I would like to know the master’s opinion about this fundamental Shia belief.

Well, it does not come from us. It comes from some beings in the mental realm and the emotional realm who are working with these more radical, fundamentalist Islamic movements and what they unfortunately do is tie into this desire that you see in many people around the world to be special. To be not only special in the eyes of man, but special in the eyes of God.

You see this in the Jews, you see it among Christians, you see it in different nations, where so many people have this need to feel they are special according to some ultimate standard which is why religion often comes into play here. There are many people in Arab countries who are still affected by this desire to be special and these beings in the mental realm who are working with these more fundamentalist Islamic movements, they know how to tie into this desire, how to cater to it that you and your group are so special and that one day you will be instrumental in saving the world. And of course, as I said, it does not come from the ascended realm, so it is based on an illusion.
