Guest guest Posted February 24, 2003 Report Share Posted February 24, 2003 DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHICH SADHANA TO CARRY OUT TO BECOME LIKE THE GODDESS PARVATI OR EVEN GET HER BLESSINGS. PLEASE COULD YOY REPLY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Dear Kajal Apologise for not responding to your message. Sometimes in life you cannot get the answers to questions as soon as possible. That is the basis of any form of Sadhana : Patience. Experience have told me that sometimes you will only get the answers later on after you have fulfill other obligations. And many a times, answer will come spontaneously or without you realizing it. Now you have asked : Which Sadhana to carry out to become like the DEVI. To me that is a big question. The purpose of Shakti Sadhana is to become the DEVI. To merge and becoming ONE with the Divine One. I personally believe there is no short cut and each Sadhana is unique to an individual. That is why in some Sadhana you need a guidance of a Guru. We might worship the same DEVI, but the path that each individual use to reach or merge with the DEVI is different. Any form of Sadhana if you do it with sincerity and honesty will get the blessings of DEVI. And Sadhana from my point of view is that does not only confine to the Pooja room. The real Sadhana is out there in the real world. Even our form of interaction with another human beings can be considered as Sadhana. When you are doing social work, that too is Sadhana. Most important is that you must remain focus on the Divine. It is said that to Worship the Deity, One must become a Deity. Tell me what do you understand by this? The process of becoming the personality of DEVI is a spontaneous process. As you advance in your Sadhana, you began to change ( internally and externally ) without you realizing it. You cannot pretend to be like DEVI for it only create a false impression. There is an ancient saying which goes as such : The purpose of Learning is not only the acquiring of skills and knowledge, but the real purpose of learning is the cultivation of virtues and the purification of the personal character. Now this is my own opinion. I do hope some other members would be able to correct me or add in if I have miss anything. In the Hindu Spiritual Practice, the spiritual practices ( sadhana ) consists of two broad groups : Yoga and ritual worship. Ritual worship itself is divided into three aspects namely a) daily pooja b) special or performed on particular dates c) performed for fulfillment of a special desire or for averting misfortune.
