Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 A note from a personal mail to me from gurudham on performing anusthaans. But I have never performed one.:-) You can perform the 101 rosary rounds in shifts i.e. by taking 2-3 small breaks, eg. breaks of 30, 30 & 41 rosary rounds. However, the breaks should be ideally of 5-10 minutes and not too big. During Anusthaan, the daily number of the Mantra chantings should always be completed on same day. One should sit in the same pose during the Sadhana. One should not change one's pose or posture during the Sadhana. It might sound difficult to achieve at first, but is easily available through Pujya Gurudev's blessings and will power. Moroever, you should try to do traatak on Yantra or photo during the Mantra jaap. You should stop the Anusthaan/Sadhana during the monthly periods, and restart it after taking bath on completion of periods. You may wash Asana if it becomes dirty. You can collect rice, sindoor together etc. and do visarjan of it later. An "Anushthaan" means performing 1.25 Lakh Mantra Japa (1250 rosary rounds) in 21 or 40 days. You should try to complete the Anusthaan in as less number of days as possible for maximum benefit. You should start the anusthaan on a auspicious day. You should follow following rules during Anusthaan – a. Start on the same time everyday. Perform same number of rosary rounds daily. b. Eat pure vegetarian food during Anusthaan & Sadhana period. Try to avoid onion, garlic etc. c. Maintain complete celibacy during Anusthaan period. If your brahmacharya (celibacy) breaks during Anusthaan/Sadhana period, then you should stop the Sadhana/Anusthaan and restart the entire Sadhana/Anusthaan again afresh. d. Perform one rosary round of Guru Mantra. Then perform the required daily number of rosary rounds of the concerned Mantra. Then chant one rosary round of Guru Mantra again. Normally, before chanting the mantra for Sadhana, one needs to make a Sankalp (pledge) by taking water in one' right hand palm saying the following in any language –Myself <name> son/daughter/wife of <name> , disciple of Pujya Gurudev Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimaliji is making this pledge by taking Divine blessings and Diksha from my Pujya Gurudev Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimaliji on <date &time> at <place name> that I will perform <sadhna name> Sadhana by chanting <number> rosary rounds for <number> days to solve <problem details> problem. May Pujya Gurudev stay with me all the time and guide and protect me. After, this let the water flow to the ground. This Sankalp is an agreement between yourself and the divine deity. After taking Sankalp, you should perform Sadhana for the required number of days at the same time. There should NOT be any break of even a single day after taking Sankalp. You need to take Sankalp only on the first day. (my note: FOR WEEK WILLED PEOPLE, DO NOT TAKE SANKALP FOR YOUR FIRST ANUSTHAAN, instead just pray for completion of required task daily) You should also perform havan/yagya after completion of anusthaan of 1.25 lakh mantra japa. You should offer 12500 (10% of Total Mantra chanting) Aahutis in the holy fire of havan. You should suffix the deity's mantra (which you chanted 1.25 lakh times) with the word "Swahaa". With each chanting of the mantra, you should offer Aahuti in the holy fire. You may do havan in two shifts, if it is not possible for you to complete it together. There are specific rituals for performing Havan/Yagya.. Detailed procedure of doing Havan/Yagya (Holy Fire ritual) is described in book "Sarva Siddhi Pradayak Yagya Vidhan " authored by Param Pujaniya Gurudev. Normally, you may use "mango plant" wood sticks in the Yagya. You can place a camphor between dry sticks and then light it. You should preferably use a "Havan Kund" for performing havan. If it is not available, then you may use any other pure metal container. You should perform Guru Poojan before performing Havan. You should also chant at least 4 rosary rounds of Guru Mantra. Then, you should perform poojan (worship) of the Sadhana Yantra & photo of deity with Dhoop (incense), deep (light), chandan etc. You should mentally pray and meditate on the form of revered Gurudev before starting the Mantra chanting. You should also mentally take permission from pujya Gurudev before starting the Mantra chanting and request for His blessings & Aashirwaad to obtain success. After the completion of Mantra chanting, you should mentally seek forgiveness from revered Gurudev for the mistakes (known or unknown) which you might have committed during Mantra chanting and request for His Aashirvaad and blessings. If you feel that you need to go somewhere which might lead to an interruption, then you should first finish that task, and perform Anushtaan with Sankalp later. In the meantime, you may chant the Mantra given to you by Diksha using the mala. SOME MORE NOTES FROM MY Conversation with ARUN BHAIYYA: Normally we should perform 1250 malas of our preferred mantra for chanting then 125 malachants for havan then, 12.5-13 mala chants for tarpan, and then 1.25=3 mala for marjan, and then feed 13 brahmans (little girls or kids for for me). But bhaiyya told me guruji says that in case havan is not possible, you can take a sankalp Expressing your inability to perform havan and chant the required no. malas. (minimum 125) In this case, increasing the amount to 25 percent ie 313 malas for everything (havan tarpan, marjan) is a good idea. again if feeding brahmans is not possible , whatever is within one's means should be donated. it may be something really small too. but do it as a matter of completion. if it is not possible immediately, just make a small pledge to the deity and do so later on. He also told me that it is allowed to use the same samagri for three repetition of the same sadhana. I think if you wish to perform a sadhana for longer duration or a daily basis then the same samagri can be used ie if you wish to performa a sadhana till karya pooorti or life long.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2002 Report Share Posted August 2, 2002 There are many types of Anusthaan.
