1) What are the benefits of attending Satsang?

Some words about Satsang from Pujya Bapuji : "Regular listening to satsang is immensely beneficial. If you regularly listen to satsang, your mind will neither go astray nor engage in futile thoughts. It will be saved from Manoraj. And the biggest benefit of all is that the mind will be ever engaged in the thoughts that are inculcated by satsang. Constant reflection on satsang will naturally kindle dispassion and discrimination in your mind, and protect it from petty desires and attractions. Regular contemplation on the thoughts imbibed in satsang not only protects the mind and intellect from a possible downfall, but also helps them become established in the Supreme Consciousness. The more you assimilate the teachings of satsang, the more you will be elevated from this earthly existence towards divinity. Even a person who is not a sadhak, but regularly listens to satsang and reflects thereon, can become an excellent sadhak and even realize God, the Supreme Being. The bliss and peace that blossom in the heart as a result of listening to satsang are infinitely superior to even the pleasures of the heavens."

To know more about the benefits of Satsang please listen to online videos of 'Satsang ki Mahima' Satsang by Pujya Bapuji , The links are below:

2) What is the meaning of Guru and why we need Guru?

4) What are the qualities sadhak/sadhikas should have to increase their sadhana?
  • Regular study of the scriptures: Everyday, even if it is only for a little while, Listen to Satsang daily, study the biographies of God-realized saints , and the scriptures that encourage you towards God-realization.
  • Balanced diet and judicious fasting: Neither should you starve nor should you over-eat. Neither should you neither eat on all thirty days of the month nor fast for ten days at a stretch. Do not fast if you are a diabetic. If you are obese but otherwise healthy, undertake fasting four times a month. If you are healthy, but not obese, fast twice a month as per your constitution.
  • Prudent selfless seva: Seva has its own joy, its own generosity (nobility), virtue and salutary impact. Whether you are in the material world or in the spiritual one, progress is impossible without seva. In the material world, if you serve only ostentatiously, your achievements will also be apparent, not real. If you serve sincerely in the spiritual world, your progress will be genuine. Therefore, seva should be for the sake of seva, not for pretentiousness, not for acclaim, but rather to open the doors to the hidden treasure of bliss that is ever present in your heart.
  • Regular practice of meditation and Self-inquiry.
  • Surrender to God: Totally surrender your I (ego) to the Lord, Who is the primeval source of the entire creation, He, who creates, sustains and destroys the universe.

5) What are the qualities of Satshisya(True disciple)?
For a Satshisya(True disciple) three things are essential
  1. Self-surrender unto God and a God -realized saint
  2. The desire for emancipation (Liberation)
  3. Elevating one's mind according to the dictates of scriptures and Self-realized souls
For more detailed answer, listen to the Audio satsang of Pujya Bapuji Satshisya ke liye, He Mere Sadhak located at audio


6) What is the ultimate goal of our life?

Ultimate goal for a Human Life is Self realization : It is to acquire true devotion, perfect happiness, supreme bliss and satisfaction in life time (while still living in this ever changing world full of troubles and mysteries) and freedom after death.

7) How should I control anger?

Anger is the most dangerous and detrimental to Sadhana. If a thief enters a house, some items (furniture etc.) still remain un-stolen. But if a house catches fire, everything is reduced to ashes. If the fire of anger overtakes our mind, our entire treasures of Japas, Tapas and virtues are destroyed. Therefore, beware of anger. It is all right to act out anger, but be alert not to allow it to possess you.
Techniques:
  • Do not eat hurriedly. Take at least 25 minutes to eat and chew your food properly. If you find it difficult to ward off anger, press your tips of the fingers into your palms making a fist. Eat sattvic food. Stay away from garlic, red chilies, and fried foods.
  • If you want to be happy and cheerful take a mixture of following contents every morning: 10 g Honey, 1 glass of water, 5 to 10 Indian Basil (Tulsi) leaves and Sant Kripa Churna (From Sant Shri Asaramji Ashram). If the churna or Tulsi are not available, honey alone will do.
  • When you are angry, see yourself in the mirror.
  • Chant " Hari Om Shanti" many times until your anger is warded off.

8) How should I control senses?
The senses tend to drag the mind towards the world, and the mind fools the intellect and makes it stray from its course. The poor intellect, if it is not cultured by japa of the Lord's name, meditation on the Lord and prayer, gets dragged along with the mind and keeps wandering hither and thither till eternity.

If the intellect gets purified through prayer and devotion to the Lord, discrimination will dawn; and then it will say," What in the end shall I gain by satisfying my palate or fulfilling other desires? ‟ It will not become a slave to the mind.

Ask yourself again and again " What in the end shall I gain from this? ‟ This will make your intellect strong and the resolves and counter-resolves of the mind will be reduced. Your mind and your intellect will then be at rest.

9) What is the difference between vasana (desire) and uddeshya (purpose)?
  • Listen to this Audio Vasana Aur Uddeshya me fark 1& 2 available at this below link audio


10) Why should one not eat during Sandhya Timings?
We should not consume any thing during Sandhya Timings, and try to engage ourselves in Japa-Dhyan-Pranayam.At Sandhya as said by Pujya Bapuji Tamasik vibrations are active, so one should be engaged in japa-dhyan-pranayam otherwise that Tamasik vibrations can affect intellect and we can take wrong decisions. Hence Pujya Bapuji asked not to make any decision in Sandhya. Tamasik vibrations can include bacteria's/viruses etc., At the time of Sandhya we do Shankhnaad and Dhoop-deep, by this air is refreshed again.In sandhya our Sushumna is open- and our mind is at like hot wax state, any color that is poured in hot wax, becomes the color of wax itself, similarly whatever we do at the time of sandhya is deeply craved as sanskars, and so as our mind then.
Refer: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HariomGroup/message/8936
11) What is the significance of Trikaal Sandhya?
In order to make life brighter, successful and progressive, one must do Trikaal Sandhya. ten minutes before & ten minutes after the sunrise, ten minutes before & after noon, and ten minutes before & after sunset are considered to be very auspicious. Meditation, japa (repetition of the Holy Name), Pranayaam done at this time is very helpful in opening doors of the Sushumna. The dormant energies and strength of a human being is awakened as soon as the doors of the Sushumna is opened.

6) What are the Nine Kinds of Nectar a Householder should have?
In the Skanda Purana, it is said that a householder should always have nine kinds of nectar in his house. This makes his life happy, while possession of this divine wealth costs nothing.
1. The first thing - you should speak in a pleasant and delightful manner to anybody who comes to your house.

2. Secondly, look at him gently and kindly. Howsoever wicked and cruel he may be, he has come to your house as a guest, and in that, he is like a god,and hence, worthy of adoration. If you see divinity in the guest, your own divinity will be awakened.

3. Thirdly, treat him amiably and congenially, with your countenance reflecting friendship and goodwill.

4. The fourth thing is that your heart should be full of love and tenderness.

5. Fifthly, stand up and welcome him respectfully. Even if he is your sworn enemy, and loses no opportunity to insult you, your standing up to welcome him will soften him considerably. Instead if you chose to insult him by making a snide remark, and he returns home insulted, you have paved the way for being insulted even more venomously.

6. The sixth thing - say a few sweet words to welcome your guest, and offer a glass of water with something to eat.

7. The seventh thing is to have a friendly conversation with him making affectionate enquiries like, "You have been very kind to pay me a visit; tell me What I can do for you." etc.

8. The eighth thing is - sit with him for some time.

9. The ninth thing is that you should see him off by walking a few steps with him.

Whether the visitor is superior or inferior to you in any respect, bringing these nine nectars into practice will elevate you. Even the other person will leave with more respect for you in his heart.
On the other hand, if you make an ostentatious display of your wealth or furniture etc. or try to impress him with your social status, he may be mpressed by your wealth and power for a while, but he will not return home being a friend of yours. He will have only negative and malicious thoughts for you. Never commit the folly of trying to impress others with your wealth. It is not good to try to establish your superiority by boasting about yourself.
