Initiates the flow of true life
What is
meant by Guru? The task of the Guru is to fuse himself with the soul of the
disciple, so that his inner faults are demolished as quickly as possible, thus
converting him into an enlightened being. The Guru can do this either by
preaching, by giving Diksha or by the transfer of energy.
First of
all the Guru preaches about the original state of the disciple. In fact the
disciple is full of faults and sins. He is totally impure. His soul is affected
by all such shackles. As a result he comes under the influence of Maya, which is
a barrier to his success in Sadhna and realisation of God. The Guru shows us
that such kind of animal life is useless. The God has given us human form not to
waste our life, but to know our potentialities. Only by wisdom can we understand
how to make our life holy and sanctified. This wisdom itself is known as Diksha.
Diksha: A process of purifying life
Now a
question arises, what the disciple must do to receive Diksha and the steps by
which he must proceed? Is it necessary to take Diksha periodically or only one
Diksha is enough?
Can the
Sadhaks given to pleasure make their lives pure?
Can
people living in adverse circumstances free themselves from the bondages of
attachment, pleasure and sin?
Can a
person avoid doing undesirable deeds?
It is
not at all possible for a normal person to avoid such things. He has to
literally struggle for the achievement of worldly happiness. He cannot live on
wild-berries in a jungle. It is his wish to perform pure Sadhnas and to be
successful in them, even when he is living in adverse atmosphere.
He wants
to make his ambition come true with the help of Sadhnas.
It is
possible because whenever the disciple thinks about Sadhna, it is clear that he
has respect for Gurudev, has faith in the energy of Mantra and the techniques of
Tantra, and thus wants to place, their fused energy i.e. Yantra, in his house,
so that his wealth and success increase.
I have
already cleared that Diksha is the greatest boon of our life, a charity given by
Guru which is useful in laying the foundation and upbringing of life.
Diksha
is differentiated into three categories according to the Tantra scriptures:
1.
Shambhvi Diksha
2.
Shaakt Diksha
3.
Mantri Diksha
But
these Dikshas are only suitable for people who have devoted their lives to
Tantra. Hence they cannot lead a family life.
What
path should the worldly people follow?
The
right and perfect balance between Siddhi and Pleasure (Bhog) can be attained
only by following the path shown by the Sadguru because people related to one's
life intentionally or unintentionally interfere into the personal life due to
which the power of the Sadhna or its effects become feeble and minimised and
success in the Sadhna keeps eluding.
The
disciples should keep obtaining Dikshas in the same sequence as given in
Shastras, because each Diksha helps in sanctifying a part of his soul and this
must be continued until all of some specific Dikshas are obtained namely- The
Ten Mahavidya Dikshas - including Kamala, Kali, Matangi and Tara etc. For
accomplishing the Sadhnas of the Mahavidyas, obtaining their individual Dikshas
is essential, because during the Diksha the Guru transfers to his disciple a
part of his infinite divine powers which help in the awakening of the dormant
Shakti (energy) in the disciple.
Stages of Diksha
The
first Diksha a Guru gives is called Guru diksha in which the Master takes upon
Himself all responsibility of the disciple. But this is in now way a one way
process. If the Guru assumes total responsibility it also becomes the duty of
the disciple to devote himself fully in the feet of the Guru, to immerse himself
in His love, to have full faith in Him and to regularly chant the Guru Mantra
given by the Guru as specified by Him. This might seem a very easy thing to do
but it is most challenging to keep up with this practice lifelong. And this
regular spiritual communication proves to be a very subtle yet strong link
between the disciple and the Guru through which all desires, problems, thoughts
of the disciple are conveyed to the Guru and thus it enables Him to transmit
solutions, suggestions and warnings regarding future dangers back to the
disciple.
The more
one devotes one self in the Guru after having had this Diksha the more benefit
one gets of the immense divine powers of the Guru.
Then
besides Guru Diksha the master can give many more Dikshas depending on what
specific problem one faces in life or what sort of success one desires in life.
Among some of such Dikshas are Lakshmi Diksha for wealth, Manokamna
Poorti Diksha for fulfilment of wishes, Kundalini Jagran Diksha for
spiritual upliftment and activation of Kundalini, Kayakalp Diksha for
perfect health, Sheeghra Vivah Diksha for quick marriage, Sammohan
Diksha for a hypnotic personality, Karya Safalta Diksha for success
in some particular task, Sarva Baadha Nivarann Diksha for riddance from
specific problems, Shatru Daman Diksha for victory over foes in disputes
etc.
Thus it
can be seen that there are Dikshas for all purposes and through them the Guru
transfers a particular type of power which enables the disciple to overcome the
very problem he faces.
The
power transferred by the Guru also acts in another manner when it nullifies the
evil effects of his past Karmas, bad stars or misfortune that are causing him or
her trouble. And once this happens then not only is the problem easily solved
rather one makes swift progress in life.
Besides
Sadhanas for material gains there are Dikshas for the specific purpose of
spiritual upliftment too. Such Dikshas ensure success in Sadhanas and Mantra
rituals and could enable one to have the divine glimpse of one's deity.
But this
does not imply that once the disciple obtains Diksha, he should feel that now
rest of the task, of soul awakening, is of the Guru and neither should he start
to lead a life of indulgence. Just as a body is cleansed daily by taking a bath,
the same way in order to cleanse the soul and to enlighten it, it is necessary
to keep obtaining new Dikshas.
When a
Guru feels that his disciple wants to get success in Sadhna through his
continuous service for the Guru and he has also performed some Sadhna practices
but due to certain reasons he is not getting success in his Sadhna.
The
reason for his failure may be the influence of his previous life or he may be
committing some kind of error during Sadhna or he may not have concentrated his
mind thoroughly during Sadhna, necessary for success. In a nut shell this
implies that the disciple is facing failure in his Sadhna due to some obscure
reasons and his body has not yet attained as much spiritual strength as is
essential for the achievement of success.
In that
situation, a Guru with his kind grace imparts in his disciple, forcibly, some
power of penance and spiritual strength assimilated in his own body so that the
disciple is able to achieve full success or Siddhi in the field of Sadhna
practices.
Shaktipaat Diksha
This
procedure of transferring the spiritual power is termed as Shaktipaat. This
procedure is not so easy as it appears. A Guru also acquires spiritual power
with tenacious efforts and then accumulates it inside his body. This procedure
of transfer of spiritual strength can be accomplished only by a Guru, whose
intention is to uplift his disciple in every aspect, to provide him totality and
to give him strength so that the disciple can emerge successful in his Sadhna
and can realise the authencity of Mantra and Tantra. The disciple can also
conquer his material obstacles through his divine powers and in this way can
attain fulfillment in his life.
Shaktipaat Diksha is one of the most powerful forms of Diksha. The Guru through
His gaze or by touch of His thumb on the Third Eye of a disciple activates
certain points in this part which enable the latter to gain much in the area
related to that particular point.
There
are actually 32 subtle points on the spot known as the Third Eye on the
forehead. 16 of these relate to spiritual accomplishments and 16 to material
accomplishments. Very similarly there are 16 points of each in the Thumb of the
Guru and by matching similar points in His thumb and on the forehead of the
disciple Guru can activate all or some points and bestow specific benefits on
the disciple by making some of His energy to flow into a specific point or
points.
Only the
Guru knows well which point has to be pressed in which way so as to help the
disciple gain what he wishes to. This process is actually nothing but the Guru's
method of transmitting His divine energy through the Third Eye into specific
centre's on the Kundalini of the Sadhak. Every centre of the Kundalini has
special powers and if even one capability is awakened it can prove enough to
make a disciple uniquely successful in life.
Diksha: when and which
There
are no auspicious or inauspicious moments as far as the Guru is concerned and
whenever a person approaches Him with full faith and some problem to be solved a
true Guru would never hesitate to give Diksha. But as far as the disciple is
concerned for him the best moments are when he has fully devoted himself in the
Guru, for then if he obtains some Diksha he is able to imbibe the flow of energy
fully.
Also
although one should feel free to relate one's problems openly to the Guru, yet
it is always better to let the Guru decide which Diksha would suit one the best
because a Guru can easily peer into the future and He would be more aware than
the disciple how the latter should be equipped to tackle the current problem and
those that might arise in the future.
Although Guru Diksha links one subtly to the Guru's soul still from time to time
one should personally meet the Guru even though one might not be facing any
problem. And if the Guru suggests some Dikshas it means that He wishes to
prepare you for some future eventuality. So never hesitate to take the Diksha
even though at present you might not feel it to be necessary.
Without
doubt Diksha is the greatest boon of life and through it one can not just fulfil
one's worldly wishes rather one could also attain divinity. Another very
important purpose of Diksha is to ensure success in Sadhanas or Mantra rituals.
If one
has had Diksha before one starts some Mantra or Tantra Sadhana then success
becomes 99% assured, for the Guru takes upon Himself the responsibility of
making one succeed. By putting in just 1% effort one could thus achieve success
in a Sadhana amazingly fast.
The
boons of Dikshas are limitless and one could go on enumerating them till ever.
In short this is a quick, easy and unfailing path to success and glory in life
provided of course one has unmoving faith in the Guru and His powers.
The
Diksha is granted free of cost by Pujya Gurudev. The prayer expenses money goes
towards charitable causes through Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali Foundation
International Charitable Trust Society.
Guru
Diksha is the initial, starting base. Special Diksha means that you can get your
desires and wishes fulfilled through it - like getting rich, famous, popular,
getting a good life partner, good children etc. In short whatever you wish for
can be fulfilled only through special Diksha. However, taking Diksha once is not
enough. One might need to take Dikshas again and again to achieve success, as
each time, it will remove some past bad karmas and one might have a big stock of
past bad karmas. It is preferable to take Diksha in person, but taking Diksha on
a photograph also has some good effects. The scriptures have quoted many
different Dikshas covering the variety of spheres in life. Different people,
with different desires and wishes can take recourse to different types of
initiation. Each Diksha has many stages. Some of these Dikshas are-
