Gurutatva Sadhana | directly interact with Sadgurudev

Gurutatva Sadhana:

Is that subtle moment in which the artist catches a breath taking scene he completely merges with it and itis due to this blending of his personality with Nature that the result produced on canvas turns out to be sospectacular This oneness in hot is the secret of creativity and the greatest of all creators, the Lord, theGuru could manifest such a wonderful world for the very reason that e is present in each particle of

Nature! "et man fails to perceive im, for he has lost the artistic touch, the art of Meditation and thepower of Sadhana! Today his search remains directed outside while the real treasure is inside!

No wonderYogissit with closed eyes e#ploring the inner realm! $nd when they discover IT a blissfulradiance pours forth from their forms! %or the uninitiated it might well seem a waste of time to sit thus idly,yet once a sincere aspirant is steered gently onto the path of Sadhana he all of a sudden has a taste of&ivine Nectar which prompts him to seek deeper so as to reach the source!

This stage however is crucial, for the first encounter is so pleasant that one may be tempted to neglectone's material needs and duties and devote all time to Meditation! This would invariably lead to failure onthe material front and then frustration! %inal result is that one is either left impoverished or one blindlyrushes into the race of wealth and power leaving one's spiritual (uest unfulfilled! This only createsdisillusionment and the individual in his ignorance shifts all blame onto the Guru!

The )aster however knows that only through perfect balance can the Supreme Goal be achieved! encelike Lord Buddhahe suggests the Majhim Nikaayaor the path of Golden mean! $n ascetic might wellspend all his time in meditation, but for a family man the Guru prescribes a special schedule in which afew precious minutes are daily devoted to Sadhana!

A very wrong beief prevaent among the househoder dis!ipes is that as!eti! dis!ipes ofGurudev !an meet him or have his gimpse through Siddhis whenever they ike" #he fa!t is thatthey are stri!ty bound by Gurudev$s orders and !an see him ony when he wishes to % sometimesafter years at a stret!h" Yet their devotion in the Master never waivers& for they had wonderfu
