a message for new comers

[Guest guest]

this iis a rather long mail.

please read it only if interested.

 

 

dear brother,

thank you for the mail. it is a pleasure and an honor to me to try to

help anyone i can, with my limited knowledge.

 

i had also come across the Gurus through books.

what i suggest is, dear brother, that you take GURU diksha. See mantra

tantra are also a matter of right. if you have taken GURU diksha, then

in effect you have the right to perform any sadhna granted by him

including baglamukhi. But i will come to that point later.

 

 

this is my advice to someone totally new.

 

1) start chanting Guru mantra as and when you can, in the bus on the

road while walking

do it as often as you remember to

 

2) as an experiment i suggest that you make a schedule.

try to have a bath and sit facing east preferably early in the morning

otherwise anytime that you are free, and without tension is good.

chant the GURU mantra for half an hour.

during this chanting

slowly imbibe the following

a) acquire an aasan to sit on

any cushion set aside for this purpose will do. cover it will a yellow

cloth

b) try to not move physically during this time. slowly you will find

it easier.

 

c)print GURUji's picture and keep it in front of you.

d) light a ghee or oil lamp. Both lamps can be kept infront of the

picture. Otherwise ghee lamp should go to the right, and oil to your

left (by your i mean the relevant side of GURU photo)

d)if you mispronounce a mantra, repeat it twice on the nect bead.

e) keep a container with water in front of you, if you burp etc touch

the water with your left hand and touch your ears. This is supposed to

free you of the dosh (unwilling mistake).

 

f) if you can-- increase the chanting to 1 hour over a period of say 1

month.

 

how do you feel?

better?

are you prepared to accept a GURU?

3) initaite the process for taking Guru Diksha. If you can go in

person --great, else contact GURUdham and send a photo.

this will i am sure be a begining of a new life for you. But nothing

comes free.

 

4) acquire a rosary (sfatik for material gains, rudraksh for vairagya

(renunciation), GURU rahasya (for both) ), a GURU photo. If you like

you can buy a GURU yantra or GURU paduka.

Now daily after offering simple things like akshat (rice), chandan

(vermillion), flowers if you can, some fruit, lamp, incense etc

chant 4 rounds of GURU mantra, 1 round of chetna, 1 round of gayatri.

 

5) try to shift this schedule to brahma mahurat (ie approx half an

hour before sunrise). the benefits will be multiple.

 

6)later at some stage you can include GURU poojan by dainik sadhna

vidhi (name of a book, or cassette). But i will say that is can be

restricted to hindi speakers, or atmost south indians. Foreigners

need not worry about it in the begining as they might find the process

somewhat cumbersome, and tough.

My personal suggestion to all new comers is purchase the cassette

Dainik sadhna Vidhi, edit it to your needs and play it and follow

instructions (in hindi but). charanjit has made a translation into

english and uploaded a file recently for those who are interested.

Do not worry about it now if it is too much for you.

 

6)if you can follow the following you will feel better

a) stavik food (pure veg food)

b) try not to speak too much, or unnecassarily

c) sleep on the floor

d) celibacy (during some prayog or sadhna other than GURU sadhna only)

but a must for anusthaans.

e) not sleep or laze around during the day

 

 

 

7) ARE YOU HERE TO SOLVE A MATERIAL PROBLEM? then,

you have the following two options

a) contact GURudham , meet Guruji personally, take the relevant diksha

and chant the required mantra as instructed. you can repeat the sadhna

three times with the same set of articles, then disperse them into

running water (tied in the cloth used to spread under) you are allowed

to tie a rock to make them sink in water.

 

b) if for some reason, you are not able to take shaktipaat diksha,

you can try any prayog you wish to. reapeating 3 times allowed with

the same set of articles.

>If i take guru diksha then is it a must to do 125000 Anustan?

>If it is a must how much time it will take?

 

No it is not a must. It all depends on your will, and on the

circumstances and your problem. i recommend it strongly. Especially if

you are facing a serious problem.

the easiet way is to complete 125000 chants in 40 days==> 29 rosaries

per day. That should take less than 2 hours./day.

Or you may make faster shot at it by trying to complete the required

number in 21 days==>56 rosaries/ day. trying to do it faster is always

better if you have the capacity to sit so long. see, you will have

follow strict rules of anusthan for ashorter perod and hence the

chance of their breaking goes down.

>your words about BAGLAMUKHI MAHAVIDHYA made me to fear about tantra

>. If i have take guru diksha and i do mistake in

> BAGLAMUKHI or any sadhana will it affect me so much.

dear brother,

my aim was not to scare anybody. It was just to make my brothers

realize that baglamukhi is high level sadhna. Nothing will go wrong, i

only suggest that you try it after practicing Guru mantra for a while,

and taking the relevant Diksha from GURUJi later. But remember, our

own inner voice will give you better instructions than anyone on the

discussion list--therefore do not forget to listen to it. For most

sadhnas including high level ones if you are practicing 4 mala GURU

mantra+1 mala Gayatri+1 mala Chetna, you will be protected from any

negative results.

I suggest reciting 1 round GURU mantra before and after every prayog.

If you perform GURU aarti, that is even better.

 

 

 

Jai GURUdev

Best wishes
