Enjoy this masterpiece by @mmpandit Sir, the only book in the world that estimates the timeline of the Mahabharata War with extraordinary precision.

There are several millions of people who decide to do some or the other sadhana.
Now, a good number of them bhatakte rehte hain (wander for years) deciding that should we chant xyz with or ….. without ‘Adhikara’.
I see numerous people who spend years like this.
I know several people who got into this thing of ‘Adhikara’ and so went searching for diksha and got it online (for a goodly sum of money).
Now… most of them didn’t get any startling results which could be termed as a miracle.
At the same time, there are several people I know of and some I know personally also who got results without any Adhikara … literally nothing, just stotra patha and they got results not short of miraculous.
So why the discrepancy between the two groups of people:
Reason is that in Kaliyuga, stotra patha will also give some result if you follow the rules.
Now… if you follow the rules and in general do not do exotic mantras and do the basics, you will get a result from it… diksha or no diksha.
I know so many people who got diksha of every possible mantra from Amritananda Saraswati and did nothing … zero with it.
I know of people who got mantras from great Tantric gurus but literally are still in the same situation in ethereal state (bit of fame … etc robbed them of all other rules like Brahmacharya and their actual mantric condition is far worse than previous)…
So… it is up to you to decide who to follow.
Personally speaking, Death can come at any time, even now… Kal Ka Suraj kisne dekha hain?
So do sadhana now, do not spend lots of time in search of Gurus and exotic mantras… not absolutely essential.
Start sadhana today itself.
Mahadev.
The first thing he needs to do is to go to:
Gaya, Kashi, Tryambakeshwar and Rameshwar and get the Pinda daan done at ALL the places list in that order.
The first three can be done in the upcoming Pitru paksha and the last can be done next year.
Then he needs to learn Pitru tarpan which he needs to do in yearly Pitru paksha.
Even after this entire process is done, he might not get relief for few years, but start the process… that close person of his, the mother who committed suicide needs relief…. (I know of several people like this who despite great charts, nothing happens in their life- Pitru stuff should be resolved early … it’s low cost and easy to do in India).
Next after the above, do Shiva abhishekha every Monday and chant Hanuman chalisa in one anusthana with Brahmacharya x 21 days….
Repeat Anusthana every 3 months … that’s the bare minimum.
Sandhya with 28 count Gayatri daily at least once.
Then after 2 years see if there is a change and then change the sadhana as needed.
Prediction is absolutely top notch. I remember him saying this around 2 years or more ago actually, but of course he had put it out in numerous interviews a year ago.
My point is also that the accuracy to the exact day and month and year of the mass protests is astonishing!
There is no question in my mind that Deep State is involved in the protests (which is only now beginning to become obvious in interviews with genuine students).
Why do people fail at sadhana?
Just a brief set of thoughts.
1: Not understanding what you want in the first place.
2: Not understanding one’s own limitations well.
3: Not doing enough sadhana for a period of time.
4: Not repeating sadhana at one place for a period of time.
5: Not understanding that certain things work and many things (mantras and various Tantra procedures) simply DO NOT work. In fact they will never work… it’s not possible.
This above point I saw someone on a SM group complain that his problem increased in intensity after reading xyz. There was a link, so (knowing it because I have prior knowledge about that)… I clicked it and literally that thing had a few pages missing. Best part, most of the so called Tantrikas and experts in the field haven’t even realised it. I only know because I hand wrote those few missing pages from those manuscripts myself having learnt about it in detail in my younger years.
But … that incomplete Tantra text won’t work for most people unless they managed to realise it was incomplete AND got the knowledge to complete that text …
(Some people might ask… why I didn’t help him? Well… I got over that stupidity a long time ago. Never put your hand into something unless you are specifically told and requested hard and long by someone to do so… Besides…. that person is someone’s chela and so when their guru himself doesn’t know it… you are inviting trouble pointing out something like that.
And why disturb one’s own mental peace.
Apart from above, some things are Shiva Keelita.. so how can it work…
6: Going after the wrong thing (or the wrong person) in the first place as your sankalpa.
7: Not being choosy about who you stay with, not being careful about whose hand you eat food from on a regular basis.
This number 7, Sangati and lack of understanding about how you should be careful about food can make your spiritual journey very difficult. Women especially should be careful about number 7.
8: Running from place to place doing micro sadhana at each place for few days at a time.
One thing the mind loves to do… remember it’s basic quality is that of a monkey which likes to go in ten different directions … is to go here and there and somewhere else and do sadhana there for small amounts of time… Will that help?
If you wish to succeed, you have to choose a place, you have to choose a sadhana and you have to remain there for a long time… preferably few years, but at least 48 days at a stretch doing sadhana for that period.
This point 8 is why I see not much point in going to Tirth Yatras… or pilgrimages. Save those pilgrimage places and yourself, unless you can spend that sort of time there .. or you have a place to stay where you won’t be disturbed for the sadhana period.
I hope this small list of points helps genuine sadhakas.
Three points - one light-hearted, one thoughtful & one provocative:
(1) If one stops going to a restaurant serving only upma & starts going to a restaurant serving 100 items, it doesn't mean one "has to" eat 100 items! 😃
One simply has more choice!
(2) A Hindu need NOT worship many (or even any!) Devatas.
The force that runs the universe is too subtle - way beyond human perception or even conceptualization/ideation.
But some subtle forces that enable one to connect more purposefully with that Supreme Cosmic Force, ARE accessible to human perception/interaction, i.e. various Devatas! By forming a connection with various Devatas, one leads a more purposeful life (of various types).
BTW, in Hinduism/Sanatana Dharma as taught by rishis, one may not even worship any Devata and yet imbibe the qualities represented by a Devata within oneself through effort & blessings & get closer to that Devata (and hence to the Supreme Cosmic Force via that Devata).
Mind you, Sanatana Dharma is not your average faith based religion founded by someone in deep Kali yuga - it is a collection of subtle, broad & deep knowledge resulting from the seeking of the Supreme Cosmic Force by many great sages over millennia & independently re-validated by umpteen great yogis time and again, right till our times!
(3) It's amazing that some people feel totally free to call Hindu Devatas "fuckers and suckers". 😡😟
If one retorts about the other religion using the same words, all hell will break loose! Remember what happened to poor @NupurSharmaBJP ji? She didn't even retort - she just quoted their own scripture..
This one-sided & hegemonic ridicule & oppression of Hinduism by people of a couple of other religions that persecuted Hindus in their own heartland for about a millennium (and hence feel entitled/overconfident!), MUST end. And it WILL end soon. 🙏🕉️🙏
There are times when love takes precedence over dry intellectualism and strict discipline. Those are the times when you want to just go with the flow. The flower may come last and the naivedya may come first, the recitation may not happen but just the song. That's the tantra of Radha (going with the flow as in Dha-Ra). Love beyond devotion. No duties, no binding, no sankalpa, no sadhana only sadhan. Today was such a day. The video of Chandi Durbar 🙏 not open for public visitations. Just me & Her.
