Purity of the mind is the first step in sadhana.

[Guest guest]

A sadhaka should live in a blemishless way. Purity of the mind is more important than the rituals and Bhajans. Imbibing good thoughts and relinqishing the bad thoughts is the first step in Sadhana. Once our mind becomes pure, automatically noble thoughts will fill up. In the world, there are varieties of beings. All are not capable of following a single sadhana and the level of achievement of each one will vary with others. As the Doctor prescribes various combination of medicines for different people for the same disease, depending upon the health, age and other factors, so also the Guru also prescribes different sadhanas to different disciples. Guru alone can gauge our inner development correctly and prescribe a suitable sadhana to suit our mind set. Hence first clean the inner realms of bad thoughts and tendencies and cultivate good one. Sairam.
