Guest guest Posted December 1, 2001 Report Share Posted December 1, 2001 Namaste, I read some of the testimonials of several people at the siddhashram home page and I was really amazed by the number of people who had a direct darshan of Deities. I recall that once when me and my friend was watching a movie on Mahabali, how when Mahabali was threatened, he did pooja on a Siva linga and Siva immediately appeared before him. At the time my friend commented, that back in the earlier yugas God used to instantly appear before people but in Kali Yuga this is impossible. Is there a particular sadhana for getting a darshan of the Divine Mother. Again quoting from a book by Yogananda, " How to talk with God", Yogananda says that one should do sadhana till God talks to you directly(you hear him like you would hear anyone one else)- but this is a process that would take years if not lifetimes. Has anyone on this list been fortunate enough to commune with God directly?? Aum Namasivaya, Vijay Buy the perfect holiday gifts at Shopping.

I believe that having Darshan should be easy then personally talking to the lord. If having darshan in dream is considered valid then i think most of us had some darshan of Gurudev some times in our dreams at some point or the other, but i dont know wheter this should be considered, what i believe is as we are aware of physical form of Gurudev its not that difficult to reproduce it in dreams,if we happen to think of him in some seriousness and sincerity say for few hrs, but the thing thati belive should be valued infinitly is having the darshan of some strange soul(ex some sage) in the dream and later seeing the same person in some stage of our life later.That is valid one, besides if we are able to photograph the image of the diety as we performed some sadhana it would be unique experience. i believe that some of the sadhkas, may be members or may not be would have had some sort of this experiences... one of my Gurudevs used to tell that Gurudev will can come in dreams , id ont exactly remember the context ... But i had few times where Gurudevs came into my dreams, but i really dont know whether its is the same what Gurudev was referring to, ....

The value of SatGuru is far more imp in this kali yuga then any other yuga. > Is there a particular sadhana for getting a darshan of > the Divine Mother.
