In a stunning revelation from Prayagraj, Kinnar Akhara’s Mahamandaleshwar Mamta Kulkarni has claimed to have witnessed the Kalki Avatar, the final incarnation of Lord Vishnu, receiving direct training from Lord Parashurama. This bold assertion has ignited widespread discussions across spiritual and social circles, drawing attention to her profound spiritual experiences.
Speaking exclusively to reporters, Kulkarni emphasized that true spirituality transcends external appearances or titles. ‘It’s an inner journey of consciousness,’ she said. ‘I’ve glimpsed realities beyond ordinary life, including the sight of Kalki Avatar being mentored by Parashurama himself.’ She cautioned, however, that not all divine encounters should be publicly disclosed, as some remain sacred between the seeker and the divine.
Kulkarni didn’t hold back in critiquing Jyotishpeeth Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati, arguing that ego must be shed before ascending to such exalted positions. ‘Without humility, one cannot uphold the dignity of the seat,’ she remarked sharply.
Turning to the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, she recalled the near-universal celebration after centuries of anticipation. ‘Everyone embraced this historic moment except the Shankaracharya,’ she noted. She linked his refusal to visit the temple with a subsequent landslide near Jyotish Math, interpreting it as divine retribution.
On truth and righteousness, Kulkarni was unequivocal: ‘Truth is the greatest virtue; falsehood, the ultimate sin. Religion embodies truth above all.’ Donning saffron robes for 25 years, she has committed to meditation, penance, and devotion, yet insists her identity isn’t defined by attire or status.
Addressing politics, she rejected extremism, viewing religion as a personal affair. She questioned the Shankaracharya’s political leanings, doubting if a Samajwadi Party government would halt cow slaughter. Praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi as unmatched, she sees greater potential in Priyanka Gandhi over Rahul Gandhi for Congress’s future.
Kulkarni’s statements blend mysticism, critique, and political insight, positioning her as a polarizing yet captivating voice in India’s spiritual landscape.
