Revelation of the techniques of sublime transformation:


Before I proceed further, it will be appropriate to describe three important phases of my life Sadhana, which are linked with my spiritual progress. This has been the central point of my successful life journey. If readers of my life are inspired to proceed on this path they should assimilate the philosophy behind the Sadhana which I have adopted in my life. Mysterious occult events, no doubt, sound interesting but they are confined only to t person concerned. Hypnotized by such events, if a person performs the same rituals and pays a visit to the Himalayas he will get nothing. The most important lesson which my soul has learnt living in this body is true Upasana (worship), correct life (Sadhana and Aradhana, which means service of humanity. This is the path which can transform a person into a divinized human being, a Risi or a messenger of god.
A man needs food, clothes and shelter for sustenance. Pen, ink and paper are needed for writing a book. Seed, manure and water are needed for growing a crop. Not one, but all these three are important and none of them can be ignored. For spiritual progress also, coordination of Upasana, Sadhana and Aradhana is needed. All these three are equally important.
Real form of Upasana

The aspect which is secondary and mirror e.g. mechanical adoration (puja-path) has been wrongly considered to be (worship). Offerings of some stray materials to the deity and doing certain rituals or overt acts of worship are considered as puja. To eulogize, extol and chant praises of gods is known as path. Sweets, cocoanut, cardamom etc.  Are presented and offered to God or the deity as if He lacked such articles and by offering them, He will be overwhelmed with joy. People thinks that just as a ruler is puffed up on hearing bardic poetry in his praise from  a bard, God will fulfill their worldly ignorant about the true nature of Godhead and consider Him to be a stupid Super person who could be allured or befooled like a child. They think that God can be coaxed to fulfill their desires, proper or improper, just or unjust. Then common man is a victim of this illusion. The so-called bhaktas(devotees) beg wealth, success, heaven, liberation, siddhis(divine powers) from God. Some people are crazy after seeing God with physical eyes. Amongst persons who are engaged in counting beads or burning incense-sticks, a majority belongs to this category. Some are after a still cheaper formula. They think that simply by seeing idols in the temple or having a darsan of saints they can cajole them to fulfill their ambitions. Such naive beliefs are prevalent in the society.
