different asana for sadhana

[Guest guest]

om namo bhagawate rudraya

 

firstly thank you very much sharing your knowledge with your brothers and

sisters. even though i agree with your observation of banning deer skin and

prohibition of its use, it is still a matter of religious belief and people do

not kill the animals to use it. in olden days, the ashrams of rishis used to

feed and shelter such deers and when they die naturally, their skins are used.

they were never killed for using as an asana for sadhana. In kanpur and agra,

several leather factories exist who use leathern obtained from dead animals.

 

this also reminds me of how siyar singhi (jackal's hood) is also traded by

several tantric stores and websites because of its miraculous mystical powers.

many modern people are amazed as to how its hair keep on growing on its own. it

is obtained only after its death. Similarly cat's umbilical chord is also used

for gaining immense wealth. there are many lucky charms and tantric items

which are used quite generally by thousands of people across the country which

are proved beneficial.

 

ethically also it is no wrong in using an animal skin if it is procured after

the animal's natural death. we all use woollen shawls in winter, as the wool

is taken out of the animals without killing them.

for sadhana, tiger skin is the best, deer skin is better, darbha asana is good

and if nothing is available, a red cloth is also good.

Dear sister Ms. Laletha,

 

Trade of skins of all wild animals are banned under the wild life protection act

1972. Licence is required for such animal skins, horns etc. even if it is a

ancestral property. The licence is issued by the concerned state forest

department. It is extremely difficult to get licence for such item. To keep

and to trade animal skins, horns, nails is a non bailable crime in India.

 

 

In fact, one should not use animal skins in sadhana since, these are obtained by

killing the animal. Adding further to this even one should not use silk since

hundreds of tiny beautiful silk worms are killed to extract the silk. It is

always better to use 'Darbha Asana' and plain white cotton clothing for

sadhana.

 

Thanking you and with best wishes,

dear arjun ji

 

i would like to know if it is possible to get deer skin for sadhana from which

place and how much does it cost.

 

i would like to go to kashi. i have heard that most of the items required for

pooja can be obtained there. can u tell me the names of shops u are aware of

and generally purchase your requirement from?

 

regards

Dear friend

 

for concentration in sadhana, wearing of a three mukh rudraksh mala is ideal as

lord shiva says in shiva puran that the wearer gets the result of sadhana and

learns all vidyas. i have been supplying rudraksh for quite some time procured

from the himalayas which i visit every month and my prices are just to recover

my costs and expenses and are around 50% of what is listed in most rudraksh

selling sites on the net. i have also supplied 14 mukh rudraksh to some fellow

astrologers which develops the third eye and the sixth sense works so great that

the wearer can foresee and foretell everything. the 14 mukh rudraksh is

worshipped in the pooja place and is worn on the forehead only while doing

meditation.

 

for sadhana or meditation, sitting on a darbha mat is good, a deer skin is

better and tiger skin is the best but is difficult to get. meditation on such

skin would help you develop more concentration and the entire energy created or

developed by you in meditation stays within you and builds an aura. .

 

with best wishes

Hello,I am a devotee of shiva as well, my problem though is that whenever I sit

to do my sadhana, I am not able to do 1 very important and basic

thing...maintain concentration. I never realise when my mind has drifted to

other thoughts. I have no control over it and eventually, when I complete my

sadhana, I feel very unsatisfied and extremely angry at myself, and very

dis-spirited as well. I do not know what to do!BJ--- In
