Quaries of Sadhaks -------- 26

Q. Baba ji...sometimes... it’s like I am creating something and even strong creation with full imagination, Happiness, unconditional acceptance and love. and try to send that message in my deep consciousness or inside me through meditation. but strange thing happen with me is... In meditation, when Baba ji ask "TUM CHAHTE KYA HO?” when the time comes to speak my desire or pray to my wish... I always remain silent even you ask me again and again... it’s not that I forgot... it’s like I could not speak even smallest wish like "I need a chocolate". after disappointment I falsely satisfy myself.... "okay USKI RAZA ME MERI RAZA...JIS VIDHI RAAKHE US VIDHI RAHNA HAI... HAR HAAL ME KHUSH... so create kya karna". I don’t know why... where I am going wrong?? Yes, My loving Baba ji you always said... "God is always ready to give you... Tum mangte hi nai... usse ek baar maag kar to dekho. Your richest father is always ready to give to his loving children". Baba ji Please guide your daughter.....how I overcome this issue? Namah Shivay.

A. Namah shivay ji. This is a typical case of being a prisoner of one's intellect. It is very good that we understood the teachings of Baba ji so well. And in fact we remember them by heart. But we must realize that more important than knowing about the teachings, what holds the key is the implementation and application of these in our lives. If as mortals living a good social life we say all of a sudden that what we need is Moksha, we are cheating ourselves. Likewise, to say that I don't want to desire because Jis Vidhi Rakhey Us Vidhi rahiye is to cheat yourself. This phrase is used in a very different context. Do not mix the teachings. You know deep inside what your desires are. Of course you want to live happily. Isn't that a desire? Of course you want everyone to love you. Isn't that a desire? Of course you want to have chocolates. Isn't that a desire? You know exactly what you want from life. Which places you wish to visit before you die. What joy you want to experience before you are ready to undertake your spiritual journey. So firstly, we must understand that when in Shiv Yog we say renunciation or giving up, it is not the desires that we are giving up. Doing that would be a sin. What we should give up is our vices. Our bad habits. As for desires, live them. Constantly write your desires, your wishes and your longings in the Golden book. Think with happiness how much joy you will experience if you get what you want. It can be any worldly thing from a caring spouse to an adventure trip to a great smart phone to reaching an excellent state of physical health to reducing weight. Any and every desire with purity at heart. Also, the desire must not be based on falsity. For example writing in the Golden Book I want to become president of my country tomorrow. And if that doesn't materialize, you begin feeling sad. Desires must be based on truth. What you really want. Do not try to give yourself a false encouragement by feeling that I have no desires. You are treating a teaching as a pretext to not pay the price for something you want in life. Yes you have a desire. Yes you have to write it in the Golden book. Yes you have to meditate. Yes you have to focus on your desire. Yes you have to work to fulfil that desire. And yes the desire will materialize. Blessings.

Q. Baba ji ke songs konse sites pe milte h?

A. Namah shivay ji you should always try and buy the CDs and DVDs. Downloading them and uploading them is morally, ethically and spiritually wrong. In Shiv Yog we perform the sadhna to clear our karmas. But when we promote piracy, we are promoting negative karmas. Remember the golden Shiv Yog lesson of nothing comes for free. You have to pay the price for everything. Always select the path of truthfulness. Blessings.

Q. Namah shivay: Gurudev I want to know that the Durga Sptashati beej mantra have been provided by you but niskilan & keeln mantra have not been provided by you. In Durga Sptashati book it has written that who will do sptashati without niskilan & kilak, it will not work & there is no benefit & also he will be destroyed. What is niskilan & kilakam? Please reply me gurudev.

A. Namah shivay ji. Guruvakyam paramvakyam. Whatever has been taught to you in the shivir is cast in stone. Baba ji has unlocked these mantras through his own shakti. You need not to worry about other things. Just practice the teachings without logic or question. Blessings.

Q. Could I perform the keelam, agerlam and kavacham paath before durga saptsati saadhan & how did in daily routine please guide me namha shivay.

A. Namah shivay ji. Whatever instructions the Guru gives during the shivir are to be followed as it is. No adding or subtracting anything else. If you have attended the shivir, you will know everything. Baba ji makes it very clear during the shivirs. He's a class master. Receive his grace in a shivir. Blessings.

Q. I am making the new pooja room in north east corner of my house .Please Babaji tell me how the pooja room of shivyogi should be?

A. Namah shivay ji. No clutter. Minimal idols. Very clean. Only natural incense sticks. Minimal or no electricity gadgets. Lots of Mahamrityunjay yantras and Shree Yantras. Minimal furniture. Only Meru and Shivlinga. Blessings.

Q. Though I feel lot of energy since after 21 Dec. 2012, but now I see back even now my emotional state is in turmoil, confusing, trying to surrender but lower vibrations don’t leave, when doing Shree Vidya sometimes body starts burning like hell, I do 9 times continuous Durga saptsati a day then also feel dizziness, fear.....I know I am facing my real self, emotions are on surface to heal...unable to release them....had lot of red acne eruptions on face...now in control...lower emotions are not going away...I am a engineering student studies are going through downfall from last 1 year...I am unable to handle lot of energy it’s difficult to study sometimes vibrations starts to happen so much I can't concentrate I’m not lying,  its ego, sometimes when just sitting or lying on bed doing nothing feel pain in lower spine, energy on forehead but nothing is happening in life emotional state is so negative at this age I don’t like my friends whom I used to be with before I am always feeling alone, I am still in fearful, frustrated, confused, alone state....I am thinking of attending Goa shivir...should I attend???

A. Namah shivay ji yes indeed you do need the refuge of the Guru. Attend a shivir and follow a sadhna pattern daily after that. Make a time table. Organize your life. Problems are indication that somewhere you are going wrong in following some teaching. Blessings.

Q. Namah shivaya!! Thanks a lot for sending Baba ji's divine messages through face book... I have some queries to have an answer from Babaji.
1. Should meru be covered all day long after sadhna? Or it should be kept open in mandir so that its energy can flow in house?
2. I have got 3saptshati beej mantra books but the very first book (which was the very first printed book in blue cover in Gurgaon shivir) does not match with newly printed books. Can I use it for sadhna or keep that aside for its misprinted mantras? Kindly reply... Namah shivay.

A. Namah shivay! The personal Meru on which you perform the sadhna must be kept stationery, covered with a red cloth at all times and no other person should be able to see it. If you have more merus on which you don’t perform sadhna, they can be kept slightly open for the positivity to spread. Secondly, the book which you have bought most recently is to be used and the most recent sadhna is to be done. Blessings.

Q. How to deal with the fear of confronting someone who has hurt you in past, and you don’t confront them because they might hurt you again? please guide.

A. Namah shivay ji. Forgiveness is divine. To take make an analogy from the above post, when you forgive someone, you let the proverbial monkey off your back. Realize the fact that whatever is happening with you in this life is a direct consequence of your action at some point in time in either this or some other life. The Shree Vidya sadhna of Shiv Yog is all about dematerializing your past to heal not only your own traumas, phobias and impression but also free you of the bondages with others. It is not necessary that you have to keep everyone associated with your past with you forever. In fact as the energy of a sincere Shiv Yog sadhak changes, the circle of people around him changes automatically and quite naturally. So, it is not necessary that everyone has to compulsorily remain in your life. When you are done with the sadhna, pray for those who have hurt you. Seek forgiveness and just break the cycle of cause and effect. The day you start wishing good and praying for someone who has hurt you, it is the day you have truly forgiven him. It is the day you’re ready to be a true sadhak. The purpose of your birth is not to entangle yourself further in emotional mess. Problems will be there but Baba ji's teachings have solution to all problems. Pure intention, unconditional love, acceptance, forgiveness, sadhna, sewa, sankirtan all will help you a great deal. And when we say Baba ji is our Guru, we must understand that if we understand him as our Guru, we must surrender to him. Surrender means our will and His will unify. We offer whatever is ours to him. And what exactly is ours? Our vices, our emotions, our pent up fears, anger, resentment etc. So just give these to your Guru because he alone can take you through this journey and that with your own finite capabilities and worldly logic, you will fall. You are most welcome to attend the strongest Prati Prasav shivir for understanding best the long text that you have just read. Blessings.

Q. Help. While doing 1 DS PAATH I the process starts and ends normally. I mean as in the book.
Q1) My question is WHAT STEPS SHOULD BE FOLLOWED WHEN WE ARE DOING MORE THAN ONE PATH.
Normally it is.
1. Ganesh Mantra.
2. Navagraha Shanti Mantra.
3. Guru Geeta Shlokas. (Invocation of shakti)
4. Siddha Kunjika strotra Path
5. Shap Vimochan Mantras.
6. Aaachman --- (atma, vidya, sarvatatva shuddhi)
7. X number of Mritsanjaeevnai Mantras.
8. 13 adhayas.
9. AGAIN X number of Mritsanjaeevnai Mantras.
10. 3 full mantras of saptshloki durga and prayer to 5 goddess. <<< Durga Arpan
11. n number of Durga Dwatrishnaam Mala.
12. Shama Prayer <<< Jagdamba Arpan
13. OVER
Now please tell me if it is required to do every step while doing say 11 or 51 paath. To my little knowledge I don’t think step 5 is required every time and I am confused about step4, step6, step7, step9.
Q2) How to perform DS Yagna after 100 path. At least what samidha should be used and Should aahuti be given like BEEJ+Swaha or only BEEJ. Kindly reply as soon as possible..... It is very urgent.
Q3)Very serious ... when I do one paath on regular basis then it’s ok but whenever I try to go for more paaths 3, 4, 5 mouse lizards etc. starts to come and break my concentration sometime, something falls on me from nowhere.. Please ask some senior sadhak and help me out.

A. Namah shivay ji. The Durga Saptashati sadhna is very sacred. It must never be discussed like this. As for animals disturbing your sadhna, it has nothing to do with sadhna. You have created a negative belief. Attend a DSS shivir and receive deeksha from Baba ji. Then start doing it at your end. The meditation steps and procedures cannot be discussed here or anywhere for that matter. It should only be listened and comprehended from the Guru himself. Blessings,

Q. Shiv Yog Foundation is it wrong process to meditate Shree vidya sadhana on lying flat...if one is sick how to do sadhana??? Namah Shivay.

A. Namah shivay ji. Firstly Shree Vidya sadhna is very sacred. Do it only if you have taken the deeksha from Baba ji in a shivir. It is a very sensitive sadhna. Sadhna is not possible while lying flat. Only mantra jap, that too if initiation has been taken in a shivir. If you have taken deeksha, do the mantra jap, mentally while lying down. You will recover fast. Also, a Shree Vidya sadhak will not fall sick if he has been doing the sadhna & pran kriyas daily. Blessings.
