Last Saturday, 17th April, 2021, members of the One Love Family (Divine Light Mission) gathered at the Maharaj Ji Village, MK10 Ibadan/Lagos Expressway, Odo-Ona Kekere, Oluyole LGA to celebrate the 34th Anniversary of the founding of the village.
17th April 1987 was the day Satguru Maharaj Ji founded the village, which is called The Highest Spiritual Centre of The Universe. It was in 1980, Satguru Maharaj Ji commenced His global Divine Mission from Nigeria; precisely from 33 Shittu Thompson Street, Elliot Bus Stop, off Soboyejo Road, Iju Waterworks Road, Iju Agege, Lagos, which is now the Mother Ashram and a hub for Pilgrimage.
On the 17th of April 1987, Maharaj Ji Village was established. This location has a very important past that is not captured in popular accounts of world history. It was precisely the physical hub of the governing spiritual entities of the universe. When The Great Light of creation began His global sojourn, moving from Africa to the East and beyond, events that followed gradually re-shaped the erstwhile thriving hub. Authentic world history is destined to make a strong rebound from isolation. The world will be re-awakened to truth – genuine truth, about life, about our planet and about the area now known as Satguru Maharaj Ji Village. This is part of the irreversible promise of The Light’s return to His original earth-base. From the pristine expanse of Maharaj Ji Village, immense quantum of divine energy are generated and projected on the broad range of damage. strain and stress that once set the world on the edge of terminal catastrophe!
Satguru Maharaj Ji Village is the ultimate geographical source of spiritual solutions to all problems! It is where man sets his feet and returns home with his loads of burden taken offhis shoulders with ease, without excruciation. The simplicity of this great destination captures
the divine nature of The Satguru. Your doubts are understandable. We now live in a world of flash and show-off, where the material is stratified above the spiritual. This mis-prioritization lies at the centre of mankind’s troubles and calamities. The spiritual determines the physical. Genuine, durable and edifying material fortune is a function of divine grace. The Divine Knowledge that Satguru Maharaj Ji reals is the key to divinity’s ceaseless grace.
Historically, some figures, days, dates and years could be significantly unique more than others. In one Love family parlance, the figure 33 is one of such special figures. For instance, at the youthful age of 28 years, out of raw bravery and un-common bravado, the yet to be identified Avatar of mankind, left the shores of Nigeria while in pursuit of the golden fleece, like every other mortal, and as Divine Providence would have it, got engaged in global contests in a strange land, that will not only rewrite the history of the human race but also saved the world from the brink of collapse. The coveted trophy at stake then, in this silent Divine game of love, was The Great Light that sustains everything in Creation.’ London, United Kingdom was the Divinely ordained theatre for the silent contest that lasted for barely 3 years.
At the prime age of 33, a heir apparent to the stool of the renowned and
world-acclaimed Olubadan of Ibadanland, Prince Mohammed Saib Ajirobatan Dan Ibrahim, to the chagrin and consternation of those holding the Great Light in trust, out of Divine Providence got crowned as Lord and Savior of the New Age, whose responsibility was to save humanity from destroying themselves and at the same time ferry the entire human race across into the foretold Golden Age of Life, more abundant.
This Divine game of love is an epoch in the change of baton of Divine Mastership that heralded the return of the Great Light to its Nucleus base in Nigeria, Africa, The Light Continent of the New Age. Significantly, on April 17, 2020, Maharaj Ji Village, will be marking 33 years of its existence as Universal Home for the entire human race. The co-relation here is that it was at age 33, The Lord and Savior of the world brought back the Great Light to Africa, hitherto derided as Dark Continent. Right now, it is from Africa that photons of light rays are beamed to illuminate the four corners of the globe. What a Grace!
THE HIGHEST SPIRITUAL CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSE
Being the Universal Headquarters of One Love Family, the Alajobi of Old, Maharaj Ji Village is variously known as The Highest Spiritual Centre of the Universe, The Kingdom of Heaven on Earth, Centre for Conflict Resolution, Centre for Divine Knowledge, Home for Holy Pilgrimage and Tourism, the Divine School of Possibilities, Throne of Light, Home for Succor and Hospitality, Home of Inventions, Centre For Free Skill Acquisition etc.
Satguru Maharaj Ji Village is rightly known as the Highest Spiritual Centre of the Universe because it is the dwelling home of all the forces controlling the affairs of the Universe namely: the Divine Forces of Love, the Ascended Masters, Cosmic Forces, the Galaxies and the Milky Way, who are all under the command and control of The Satguru.
Hence, destructive spirits propelled by mermaid, emere, ogbanje and witchcraft equally co-habit with forces of goodwill at the Highest Spiritual Centre of the Universe, because they get magnetized by The Light in the same manner, light attracts insects physically. But, because tlie power of The Light is absolute and supreme, their negative activities are totall neutralized by The Light, all the same, they tarry with a view of trappin disobedient and weaker souls, who though, at the Lotus Feet of The Lord and Savior, lack the wisdom to understand the mission of The Satguru on earth, hence indulge in uncalled-for games to destabilize the Divine order of things.
Thus, all spiritual problems, known and unknown, no matter the magnitude get melted away the moment one steps in Maharaj Ji Village as the ultimate home of the Forces of Love and all Spirits in Creation.
FOUNDING OF MAHARAJI JI VILLAGE
The founding and opening of Maharaj Ji Village were of monumental historical landmark in the Divine Master plan of The Father of Creation’s mission of re-ordering the world. Prior to the Divine transformation on April 17, 1987, the virgin forest and its vicinity which situates at Km. 10, along Ibadan/Lagos Expressway, ado-ana Kekere, Oluyole LGA, Oyo State, inspired fear among motorists, who dread the isolated area as den of robbers.
Another reason for the awe-inspiring zone, hitherto, dreaded by mortal beings was the held general belief that the stretch of land is the international headquarters for the convergence (coven) of worldwide witches and wizards, for deciding the fate of the entire human race, before Maharaj Ji’s coming!
This, therefore, was the underpinning factor that informed Divinity’s choice of the location as the earthly base of the Great Light to save the world.
MEN OF THE UNDERWORLD
One of the major and foremost challenges was how to contain activities of men of the underworld who took advantage of the fact that the location is isolated from Ibadan city centre, used the area as criminal hot-spot for waylaying motorists and forcefully dispossessing travellers, plying the Lagos/lbadan Expressway, of their valuables in the night by throwing old motor tyres on the expressway, which forced drivers to stop for them to rob their passengers.
Investigation revealed that residents of the opposite Odo-Ana Keker Village; notably the landlords were behind the robbery incidents. Usually, they cross the express road to the bush on Maharaj Ji Village side of the road, from where they lay ambush for their victims.
With the passage of time, state security operatives got convinced that Maharaj Ji Village residents had nothing to do with the criminal activities going on around the area. The Lord of the Universe entered into agreement with the Oyo State Government to provide constant security light in front of the Village, along the Expressway, since robbers will get disabled from engaging in their nefarious activities with the lights on and this was done. Since no robber, in his right senses would dare operate where there is Light.
Again, a clamp down on movement out of Maharaj Ji Village from 6:00PM till 6:00Am was put in place. The arrangement was such that only those who are mobile can move out of the Village within the stipulated period. Maharaj Ji Village Internal security operatives equally provided security surveillance within the zone.
The effort yielded the desired dividend in the year 2000 when it was proved beyond reasonable doubts that Odo-ana Kekere landlords were the armed robbers terrorizing the area. The fact came to lime light when female devotees of Satguru Maharaj Ji who were observing their monthly period in the house designated for that purpose along the expressway, noticed unusual movements within the area at the wee-hours of the day and reported the matter to SP Seye Brodimends, a fellow devotee who lives at Odo-ana Kekere. Brodimends wadded into the matter and invited the police, who came in, raided the place and made arrest of suspects.
It was a real case of armed robbery, whereby Hausa Cattle traders were robbed of 7 million naira, being proceeds made from the sales of the cows in Lagos and were travelling back to the North.
When the armed robbers were paraded naked on BCOS TV, Ibadan, it was discovered that the culprits were Odo-ana Kekere landlords. However, because we live in Nigeria, where anything is possible, the armed robbers regained their freedom with the passage of time.
MENACE OF LAND GRABBERS
Another major challenge was land grabbing. The same Odo-Ona Kekere landlords who got prospered with the founding of Maharaj Ji Village became a leech in the system. Owing to dearth of accommodation in Maharaj Ji Village at the out set, pilgrims from all walks of life who came for succor under the Lotus Feet of The Lord, were forced to rent accommodation at Odo-Ona Kekere Village pending the time they will get answers to their problems. This boosted’ business activities that enriched the wallets of residents of the little village.
One Chief Atere and Olagoke Alao, a migrant at Odo-Ona Kekere and the most notorious among the land grabbers, went berserk and swindled many innocent and unsuspecting land buyers of colossal sums of money, ranging in millions. With wads of unlabored for easy cash in his pocket, he got intoxicated to the extent of going to prepare an “African Insured” cane with which he would use to flog the Supreme- Power-In-Person for Him to get hypnotized and lose consciousness, to enable him take over and sell the whole land.
At exactly 3:30 on the day he entered Maharaj Ji Village with the cane, the juju caught up with him and he ran inside the bush. His wife and children came crying to Maharaj Ji and reported the matter after hours of intense search for him failed. The Satguru asked to know the exact hour the incident occurred and He was told. Maharaj Ji encouraged them not to be worried with assurances that the Chief will come out from wherever he was inside the bush at the exact hour he entered Maharaji Ji Village with the “juju” cane.
Lo and behold! At exactly 3:30 the next day, the Chief rejoined his family and later apologized for his evil antics.
The Chief and his co-conspirators in land speculation got possessed by the Spirit of land grabbing and with Mafiosi gusto they went wild, emboldened by connivance with the police in collecting money from different people for the same piece of land. This gave rise to a land dispute that lasted for forty years in courts. It is instructive to note here that at the fifteenth year, the leading star of the land grabbers lost his sight and became blind.
All kinds of conceivable intrigues were deployed to deny humanity the only safest and surest home for succor and solace. Bold steps were taken by the Kaduna Mafia using IBB and Abacha to acquire the land, but all failed. Late General Adisa was used. The Lebanese came for a trial, no way. Col. Ike Nwosu as Military Administrator of Oyo State staged the mother of battles by these forces to grab Maharaj Ji Village and at the end of the day they got disgraced out of office.
