Chaitra Navratri approaching - SADHANA TIME!

[Datta pandya]

Dear friends,

 

Chaitra navratri is starting from March 19th.

 

According to our scriptures, we are supposed to do sandhya in the morning, afternoon and in the evening. What is sandhya?

Sandhya is a sandhi kal, transition like down and dusk. Usually the divine powers are flowing in the air all the time but during this transition time it is maximum. So our seer sages made a rule that we have to atleast light a lamp at this time to take advantage of this energy.

Same way when the transition of seasons happen, the sandhikal is usually of 9 days which is known as Navratri. Just like the daily sandhyakal, during the 9 days also the divine powers are maximum in the atmosphere. There are 6 small changes in the seasons through out the year but the biggest ones are, Aso(summer to fall) and Chaitra(winter to spring). So these days are considered very auspicious.

Now everything has a particular time to ripen, e.g. Milk takes particular time to boil, our food gets digested in particular time the same way Gayatri sadhana has a particular time also which is called Gayatri anusthan. In a regular Gayatri anusthan you have to do 1.25 lakhs Gayatri jap in 40 days with particular disciplines. Since these 9 days are considered so auspicious, you can have the same benefits of anusthan by doing a laghu Gatari anusthan(24000 Gayatri Mantra jap in 9 days with proper disciplines) during this time.

You keep fasting for two reasons:

1) During this time usually people get sick, so to give some rest to your stomach and get rid of all the bad stuff collected meanwhile.

2) Since your mind has effect of what you eat, fasting or satvic food is taken during these days.

Why Brahmacharya – to prevent waste of PRANSHAKTI.

Jai Gurudev Datta Pandya!

 

Thanks for the reminder on Chaitra Navaratri. You have posted this on 'Spiritual Discussions' where most people are from HK background intereted in discussing HK line of philosophy. They do not follow mantra anushthans or consider important the exalted period of Navaratri. That's why no comments to your post and suggestion.

But maybe someone may really think of taking advantage of this auspicious period. Thanks for the information. People will know.

You should post this message in the Mantra Tantra Yantra Vigyan forum.

 

Jai Gurudev!
