Guest guest Posted August 27, 2008 Report Share Posted August 27, 2008 Swami wonderfully says " There are three kinds of sadhanas in order to develop an unwavering mind: 1. Meena sadhana - Like the Fish : Meena sadhana can be explained by remembering that fish can survive only in water. The moment it is taken out of water, it perishes. Similarly meena sadhana is one whichcan be only in solitude. If you sit in public, the sadhana will not be successful. Being unable to concentrate when he is mixed up with other people, to be able to get concentration in solitude is called Meena Sadhana. 2. Mriga sadhana - Like the Animal : Mriga sadhana is that in which one can get concentration on the earth only. You cannot go elsewhere, say into water, and do it. As in this case, there are some people who canget concentration only when they are sitting in company with others. They cannot get concentration in solitude. If they are alone they begin to think of their family problems. 3. Kurma sadhana - Like the Tortoise : On the other hand, the tortoise can live equally well either in water or on earth. So, if we say that one's sadhana is like kurma sadhana or one is able to concentrate like a tortoise, we mean that the person is able to concentrate irrespective of whether he is alone or sitting in company with others. This is called Kurma Sadhana. Om Sai Ram Check out the all-new face of India. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
