SADHAKA , VARIETY and pitfalls !

• This is in lighter vein about my experences with variety of people who start ,and over the years observations of these personalities and cult
• there are many types aof sadhakas , dhrudh adhrud , saumya ,ugra ,arambhshur , udaseen , gambheer , krodhi , bhogi ,unmaadee, yogi , vachaal , kapati , VIRAKTA , nissaar , srimanth , mahagyaani , Jeevanmukta ...
• AGAIN emphasis it is in lighter vein oly
• Adhrud sadhakas are very dangerous , they are a menace to the family memebers and people around .....
• Adhrud sadhakas are those who do not have training in neeti shastras ... they do not have experience , nor do they have complete understanding of the their own actions ..
• if this adhrud sadhaka is UGRA then he commits blunders after blunders in life and becomes a laughing stock in later life WHY ?
• an adhrud Sadhaka takes to SADHANa as if there is no looking back .. HE assumes he will hit a PEAK soon and may become a PARAMHANSA SANYASI or likes of GREAT saints .. [ he will have an inspiration of his own ] ... and would want to progress speed up his journey with a speed of light /time ... and is very reactive
• HE settles for nothing less than highest forms of sadhna / tapas / targets etc .. he also tries the stringent rules of upavasa / living first .. and in initial phases of his journey ridicules everyone and anyone whom he meets as says "oh you dnt do this , YOu must do this , this shastra says SO , this is wrong ! oh all are nuts ... THIS is just not the way , OH I dont accept these ... I am a strict follower , I reject this .. " these statements comes very easily from this sadhaka ... [ whats wrong with that then ?]
• once there was an acquaintance who had taken seriously to MAdhwa shastra ..and was influenced by stories of sadhakas around .. so he would not eat anywhere , live a simple life , always discuss shastra [ not serious shastra just superficial indulgence in stories ] would draw inspiration through stories only and had no training in shastra ... [ ie not formally intrduced to shastra learnings or sadhana ] ... had taken up himself to come out as a GREAT staunch MADHWA .....
• once he visited a schlars house where a cook was kept to cook food .. the scholar was highly learned and devoted person .. when there was a function in the house he invted all even this person went there , but refused to EAT in the house saying "he has a feeling that food is not prepared properly " although cook was a bramhana .. but was looking highly impoversihed and dark in color ... ... so the eprson went turning down the offer ... some peopel appreciated the GENTLEMAN as STAUNCH /// I literaly scolded the person saying what he is doing is not called sadhan but PITTODREKA ...
• at that time some people felt MODERATES have become too lininent and do not support STAUNCH types
• MANY years later the same gentle man in a yatra to BADRI unable t bear hunger ate in restaurants even before the food was served to JUNTA in mutts .. was criticised heavily and became a laughing stock .. and slowly withdrew from the rest and living a secluded life
• what was the mistake here BEHAVING LIKE THERE is NO TOMMORROW and NO CONSTARIANTS in LIFE
• mOst peopel do this mistake ... they undermine the power OF TIME ..they undermine the web of constraints .. they are unsympathetic to others failures .. and THEY are not aware of their OWN weaknesses
• SOme are vachaal they like talking about the SADHNA .. they want everyone to know they are doing something .. and as long as there are cheerleaders they would do .. continue and improve .. bUT with a little jolt they skid back heavily ... I have an acquaintance who would live a very strict LIFE ... TALk fancily about his strictness and STAUNCHNESS about his firmness in MADHWA sidhdhanta ... and speak about great personalities analyse tehir ways .. make for a GREAT DIUSCUSSONS ...
• peopel around would give their examples and say LOOK here is STAUNCH MADHWA .. will not budge .. ANd will give lecture to people who would default
• LATER when the gentle man MARRIED and his son was very ill , he did some japa anushtahna for some days and then suddely in grief and also due to environmental influence [ company of people around him in profesion a givt servant ] .. took a COMEPLETELY chipped off COCONUT and visited a DARGAH .. and his son too became allright .. since then he would ask continupusly ALL scholars ISNT thera GOOD POWER IN DARGAAH too ..
• people became shocked as to why this man is speaking like this ? In the ebginning eyars would take to task anyone who would eat hile on PILGRIMAGE .. and vsiist piligrims without atking food .. BUT when disease struck he would first look for FOOD and then visit TEMPLES .. so behaviour changed .. but became a laughing stock !!!!
• what is the mistake here .. PUBLICISING ONES own EFFORTS and rules .. [till here its okay ] but then criticising others for failure is GRAETEST UNMAKING
• ALL those who are not married should nOT criticise elders about no doing sadhana [ yashaswi hope you are listening ]
• THose elders who are not doing sadhana doesnt mean they are not GOOD people or SATVIKAS ... so we must not look down upon them
• UDAASEEN sadhaka is one who has just faced a wreck in LOVE , or spouse is not cooperative , has lost interest in life , what he had believed all along has come tumbling down .. HE has no courage to put faith in anything again ...
• BUT then again he does nt want to do anything progressive materialistically so does some SSORT of spiritual exercise and thinks he is doing SADHANA ...
• ask him abut sadhan he says NOW there is VOID .. uch people always say although I do this YOU NEED NOT FOLLOW ME .. the word MAY be occurs umnpteen times in his speech ..
• he exhibits no confidence and one feels ehadche in his prsence although he might be speaking spirituality [ ISKCON fits in this category ]
• UDASeEN people became wrecks soon and commits many sins in secrect
• an arambhshoor is one who starts everythingh pompously and then fades out , such people atlk big things on DAY One and then will not be follwoing anathing of what they themselves hae ssaid after soem days and will shy away .. and if anyone talks OH that I DID it too ... and then they ahve nothing to offer ... peopel TAKING such people as INSPIRATIOSN face LOTS of disappointmenst
• THEN there si GANBHEER type , he will not open his mouth and will look down upon all others as Insignificant ... he will not answer anyones questions .. and will say PEHLE BADE HO JAO phir sochenge \.. and at the end of the day some bachcha would have overtaken him he would eb where he was as always keepping aGRIN .. SUCH sadhakas do more damage to themselves as ASUYA if it hits them they lose way
• SO remedy is ONE MUST always share KNWOLEDGE and keep ineteractions with all the people ...
• THe KRODHI type does sadhan [ rather adamabar ] only to prove others wrong or out of ANGER on some sect ... SOme epoepel dont like yavans so theyw ill don red tilak and move about intimidating others .. there is no sadhan here but more of presenatation I AM ANTI .. these people invariably go to HELL
• so HATE shoudl not be the bease fo SADHANA
• BHOGI , this is a difficult person to find out but one must be aware of this tYOE and be careful to not fall in trap [ even madhwas have this type and in majority be aware ]
• These types will show themselves as a great SADHAK .. will speak great things , and mesmerise large masses , and when epeopel come nearer and nearer to them they start exploiting the people with their misguiding talk .. THE MARK of such people will be theyw ill show extra inetrest in GATHERING people meetuing people and making great get togethers etc .. SUCH thinsg ususally ends up in scandals ./..
• SCANDALS mars SADHAN once fr all
• if you want to be a good sadhaka be away from scandals .. Shun the lure to meet people .. making acquaintances .. as proximities [ if adhrud ] leads to complications in personal relationships ..
• UNMADEE sadhak is dangerous person .. he does things for the ehck of it thrill and nothing else .. ,, talk of someone else HE will say EHH what is that sadhaka he is nothing , oh that person woh bachcha hai , talk of this saint , oh that saint was even more good , TELL him that was not so happeneing , he would even this was not ahppoening .. I AM HAPPENING
• UNMADEE invariably says HE has seen GOD
• UNMADEE one day he will wear a ORANGE robes , and second day he will ahve WINE GLASS also in his hands and say I do things OPENLY ..
• Unmaddee des things for himself only .. he has no fera of HELL and heaven .. and finally with tears leaves the world only to go to HELL
• A KAPATI is very dangerous person , he will do all what is to be done as show ... he will ahve urdhwapundra , he will take extra care to shout SLOGANS to be heard by all , he dance to everyones view in aRADAHANA , he wills serve one and all , be visisble everywhere to give impression he IS SADHAKA .. a spiritual person ... will show extreme attention while being addressed ., all the while his whole aikm would be aoccupy some seat of prominenece and gain financial access to insititutinal funds
• SUCH kapati SINCE THEY COME IN limelight soon , they will invariably be included in some committee ... such peopel over the period f time develop much ego and openly ususrp funds ... people become afraid of such guys inj long run ..
• My eyes immidiately catches such people without mistake ..
• once my brither was influenced by such a person and was uinder the impression that he is dedicated member of troupe fo swamiji ...
• he used to praise him a lot .. but never I used to give money in dantion but only dravya which would dissappoint hium throughly .. and in turn hewoudl urge my brither taht why i Dont amke donation in cash thatw oudlo ebenfit organisation ......my brther felt he donating cash would make thius man happy why not do it ? so to open my brithers eyes ... i one day offered many sevas in a single shot .. that wudl amount to a few minutes of calculationbs ... but without even taking pains to calculate .. he quoted a figure .. my brother was about a write acheque ... i interrupted and said .. there is mistake in calculation .... he then took calculator and saids SORRY sir .. it is there yes .. i will correct ..it ... I went for a pradakshina .. by that time my brother had already made acheque .. and the gentle man was makinga reciept
• I again said .. the new fiure sia lso wrong ... the gentle man got upset his entire plan to amke extra money was gone now .. he said sir NOW YOU HAVE MADE cheque already .. you cancel it and make new .. I SAID no TAKE EXTRA MONEY AS ksheerabhisheka ... he was very sad but MY brother immediately understood .. an accountant how can he make mistakes in seva amount .. is it belieevable ?
• DHRUVA ... and all others who make donations remember .. while EVERYONE starts a mUTT or organisation with PIOUS intentions , [ but all that will be when they will be in impoversihed conditions ] when more and more money flows ... that impoversihed conditioned MIND vanishes ..ow a person is self conatined and full .. his mind no longer is established in the MOTTO of ORAGNISATION when he ahd started iut ,.. NOW his PROBLEM will eb FIANCIAL MANAGEMENT .. where in he is nt equipped .. and is PRONE to be CORRUPT , as his first OVERSIGHT would ahve been IGNORED , it immediately gives him an opportunity to MISAPPROPRIATE .. then he jusifies it by saying he si doing SOCIAL SERVICE
• RAAJ "chor" mahavyagra sarpa nakraadi peedhanam na jayatesya stotrasya prabhavaannatra sanshayah
• for every PIOUS donor therew ill be umpteen KAPATIS around him wearing urdhwa pundhra axata naama everything ..so dont give by SYMBOLISM ... practically test people /// and never give huge donations to trusts .. temples and organisations , it will give only a minutes fame and not punya , if you ahve huge mney to donate , come down personally and formulate your own daana .. and give SATPATRA DAANA only
• A yogi sadhaka , this man will be fiery .. he will ahve attained extraordinary tejas .. he will talk less and at the given first opportunity he will leave the crowd .. do not annoy him he will not hesitate to put your right if he feels you are an hindrance ...
• a VIRAKTA sadhaka , will not speak much .. he will laugh at you if you go to donate him something .. he will not encourage yu in your efforts , he will not inetract with you in sansaric talk .. he will enjoy only when you talk substance ... his face will be bright .... he will look impovrished .. its very hard to deal with hikm .. its really fearful when such people encounter as our own stage of SADHAN will be very very less before them we may unknowing fdall in trap of SHOPWING ego OF POSSESSING some wealth befiore himand may have our won downfall or MUKHA BHANGA
• A MAHAGYAANi will be very famous sadhak as he will be exhibiting all and sundry day in and day out and if he practises what he knwos then he will be adored and LORD says HE likes such people more than anyone else ...
• SRIMANTHA this category is very difficult to understand ... such peopel even though in practical world will be ractsiisng highest austerities and will be aloof to pain and pleasure .. GOPALADASARU was in this LEague ...people commented on his highfi LIFESTYLE and he rebuked saying BEING virakta and unattached does not eman leaving things but taking thinsg as they come , whatever lORD gives one living accordingly is VIRAGUYA and not RENUNCIATION .. today if he ahs giuven WEALKTH emjoy it as HARIPRASAAD and when it is not DO NOT LAMENT and strive for good life ..
• JEEVANMUKTA is very evry diffciult person to know handle or interact ... this highest SADHAK will always behave as FOOL in the eyes fo the PEOPLE .. he will never shwo he has KNWON evrything and will leave a CONTRADICTORY life and yet be called highest SADHAKA will attain VAIKUNTHA ..
• SO what is SADHANA ?
• HOW doesdoshas gets reduced ?
• INCREASE of SATVA in the body gives impetis to reduce DOSHAS ... wriggling away of TAMoRAJo is also reductin of doshas ... WHILE japas and teertha yatra seva etc increase SATVA , they also writhe away the rajo tamo ... what happens when TAMorajo grip loosens ..ONE starts to THINK I MUST IMPROVE . I MUST not DO THIS AGAIN and then one has to formulate the ways and means to get away r rid of DOSHAS ..
• This phenomena of teling ONESLEF that OKAY I SHALL NOT DO THIS AGAIN is SADHANA .. what should we tell ourselves THAT I SHALL NOT DO ?
• like uttering only TRUTH ... this is first step to practise ... its most diffcult of vratas .. but has to be started .... TO get steady in this vrata one needs JAPA etc ..
• while in this vrata one faces very acute situations and failure is repeatedly a phenomenon .. but thenj one fine day YOU succeed in telling TRUTH under all; CIRCUMSTANCES ..
• when you practise this repeatedly , whatever YOU UTTER LORD MAKES IT A TRUTH
• next we have to increase JAPA and SAY I SHALL NOT HAVE AN EGO
• THERe WILL BE EVENTS .. which will TRAMPLE EGO like anything ... but then if as HARI SAMARPANA you leave EGO .. YOUr EGO IS TAKEN CARE BY THE LORD HIMSELF ...
• I HAD aTOUGH TIME practising this vRATA .. I afced UTMOST testing situations ... but EGo was still trampled even after undergoing bent state of MIND ..
• REMEMBER samay ane par GADHE ke PAANv bhi pakadne padte hai
• SO japa anushthana with NIAYAM and practise of removal of DOSHA what makes sadhana successfull ... else crores of japa will only lead to many good events in life .. more success but then again we reamian at square one .. JAPA should be done with sole aim of removal of dosha ... start with TRUTH ..
• RAYARU is the POWER mine is just typing
• WHAT I AM WRITING is MADHWA style f IMPLEMENTATION of PATANJALI YOGA SUTRAS ... I learnt it in trance ... whoelse could have taught ..
• when I decided to start seriously equanimity , SADE SAATI started .. and i went through enormously varying degrees of tests ... I STOPED BEING A LEO to appease SHANIDEV perhaps SHANIDEV is too happy with me that today I acn write these to all of you peoples advantage
• SO while active sadhan is very difficult prcess , japa increases grit to face and situations and pass tests .. IF basic willingness to give etst is absent then THERE is NO SADHANA its only admabar
• IN BODYBUILDING HOBBY ... there are many reasons to JOIN a GYM .. 1> to impress 2> to take revenge 3> just to be healthy 4> cRAZE 5> to feel attractive 6> to amass strength .. 7> to sport 8> enhance ability 9> to protect 10> crime
• when you join a GYM you shall see an extremely well built people , some average , some very good chisseled , some strong some shapely .. and some utterly struggling ...some novices some lold , some retired ..
• as you keep vsiiting the strength and number of people regularly coming to gym will be only few ...most will give guest appearances ..
• someextremely wellbuilt , strong persns will be ergular .. some fit guys will also be regular , some health conscious will also be regulkar at times ... and all others dwindle
• when FILMS like COMMOANDO , RAMBO releases there will be extrardinary RUSH in GYM ... many inspired by teh film join next day paying 1000 rs and then after somke hard workout look into the mirror HAS THE ARMS swelled with musckles ... they try for few days when there si no vsisible improvement LIKE RAAMBHAU then they give up .. some give up as MUSCLE soreness strikeness for enxt day ... some fancy will wear out .. some getting intimidated by BODUBUILDERS inside dont turn up
• SO those who wish for instant results wear OUT
• WHAT is secret of BEING REGULAR here ... those who do regular exrecise in disciplined scientific manner they will get a kick inthe mooladhaar ... that kick rushes the adrenaline and will make one a slave to the weights and pumpping machine
• that mooladhaar activation happens fr some in weeks in months or years depending on body tye and regular exercise .. FOR TGHSOE whose MOOLADAHHAR si active already day ! its resulst for THEM and they become DDICTS .. [ poorvajanma ]
• SO the motion of MOOLADHAR si paramount in any thing becoming REGULAR its same with SADHANA ..
• then everything boils down to MOOLADHAAR ... basics in sadhn apages are for this MOOLAADHAr activation .. BUT then MOOLADHAR is reverse SERPENT isko jagana yaani ulta pheri .ie YOU WILL HAVE TO GET PAST THE TAIL ,, and tail is ka maar bahut chot pahunachata hai ...
• so taming the serpent is great ART and PERSEVERANCE
• yehaan par is topic ko viraam karte hain
• poori ramayan sunanne e baad phir raam seeta wala question kar diya ... if sadhan is about rising kundlaini alone then your question is valid , I already said SADHNA is ABOUT taming DOSHAS
• WITHOUT conquering dshas if one does sadhana aka ADVAITIS or TRANSCENDENTAL [mental ] yogas .. one will fall prey to senses definitely ... they hit disaster button and live a life of guilt
• no kundalinee des not rise naturally .. there is method for it ..
• YOGA sadhana without bramhacharya is like WAGING a war without BULLETS with just a rifle
• MADHVACHARYA says HARI pooja is infinite times greater than BRAMHACHARYA pranayama etc .. MANY people interprete this as okay even if you dont do pranayaam abramhacharya yama niama only HARI pooja will get you tgrough ... this is wrng notion ., HARI POOJA should accompany YAMA NIYAMA only then it becomes infinitely effective ,, without manas nairmalya no HARI POOJA can be possible it will be an mechanical act
• for evil it rises through back ..
• I do not know how many pepel would unhderstand this lesson but I have written too many things unrestarained

• for this there is sadhana exclusive ..to make sthira the thought ...unless certain level is achived pratyahaar sadhana is not possible...THAT is the reason I ask repeatedly " EAR TO EAR air is flowing or not " till that is achieved NO other practise wiull work , failure will lead to udaasenta .. so one must first achieve EAR TO EAR free flow of air feeling ...
