Respected Narasimhaji

[Guest guest]

It is my earnest request to you and Respected Manish Panditji that each weekend

if you put some notes or advises to young spiritual aspirants here about the

problems that can arise for a sadhaka and how to overcome them from the very

basic level to gradually advance levels it wil be highly beneficial to the

spiritual community and specially to young aspirants like me and to those who

have yet not got a Guru but are striving in the path.I understand that it would

not be possible to disclose all details of sadhana on the net still whatever

comes from your side and specially Manishji I think will be highly beneficial.If

Manishji permises i will request you Narasimhaji to give it a GO.

Dear Krishnendu,

 

Neither Manish nor I see ourselves as " gurus " , though we are happy to share

what we know.

 

Different people may do different sadhanas, but the goal of all sadhana is

perfect control over mind and emotions. And, no sadhana is successful

without some minimal level of control over mind and emotions to start with!!

There lies the paradox. This is an egg first or chicken first kind of

situation. Just keep doing whatever sadhana you do (e.g. homam or japam) and

try to break through. Until you break through, sadhana will be a routine and

will work slowly. Once you break through, you will start making progress.

 

Apart from formal sadhana, keep control over your mind and emotions as much

as you can, in all your activities. That is the key. Nothing is worth

desiring and nothing is worth hating in this universe. This body is like a

temporary house in which you live while you take care of your

responsibilities (karmik debts) in the town (on earth). Take decent care of

the house (body), but do not be attached to it. Discharge your

responsibilities to the best of your ability. Once you do something,

surrender the action and its doership to the lord and disengage from it,

i.e. stop thinking about it. Always focus your mental energy on deciding

what to do and on doing what you decided to do, rather than worrying about

past or furutre or worrying about what others are doing. Focus on what you

can and should do.

 

As you discharge more and more responsibilities and as your sense of

ownership over your actions goes down, the clarity with which you can see

your responsibilities will increase considerably.

 

Best regards,

Narasimha
