Briefly describing the still incomplete work of the
Risis, I was asked to acquaint people with the power of Gayatri Mahamantra
according to the tradition of Vishvamitra Risi and to establish a Siddhapitha
Gayatri Tirtha; to write books and eighteen volumes of Pragya Puran in Vyas
tradition; to extend the science and philosophy of Yog-Sadhana in Patanjali
tradition; to build up an atmosphere of refined and ennobling vibrations by
eradicating evil tendencies from the minds of the people according to
Parashuram tradition; to conduct scientific research and popularize use of
medicinal herbs according to Charak tradition; to heal and set right mental
disorders by holistic treatments of Yagyopathy in Yagyavalkya tradition; to
establish Sadhana-Aranyaks for promoting the growth of goodness and character
building in Jamadagni tradition; to lead wandering life of a religious
mendicant (parivrajak) with the aim of imparting true knowledge and guidance
for the spread of religious and spiritual consciousness in Narada tradition; to
provide guidance through the medium of ethics to teh administrative set-up in
the tradition of Aryabhatta; to build up Pragya Sansthans at different places
in Shankaracharya tradition; to promote all-round health with th help of proper
dieting (ahar-kalpa) according to Pippalada tradition and to convince Pragya
sammelans from place to place for educating the masses according to
Soot-Shounik tradition. Gurudev also indicated the outline of establishing
Brahmavarchas Research INstitute for conducting research on scientific lines
according to the scientific traditions of Atharv Veda, as was done by Kanada
Risi.
I was explained, in detail what I had to do at
Hardwar and how difficulties coming in my way were to be resolved. I
assimilated each and every word uttered by Gurudev. Last time when I had
visited the Himalayas, I was to act according to the directions given by
Gurudev alone. This time I was assigned the onerous responsibilities of
undertaking additional momentous tasks. This poor donkey was to be more alert
and more diligent. Without elaborating, Gurudev simply gave a hint that after
doing all this, I will have to pay a fourth visit to the Himalayas and shoulder
still greater responsibilities and take steps to withdraw into the astral body.
I was informed that the work at Hardwar would be more
difficult than that at Mathura. The onslaughts of devilish elements would have
to be faced more resolutely and there would be several ups and downs. After
explaining where and how I had to live and perform my daily routine, I was told
that I should regard it as a joint program of Gurudev and all the other Risis.
I assured Gurudev that for me he was the representative of the Supreme Lord and
all the Risis and Devtas; and all his instructions would be complied with till
my last breath.
Our talks ended. After bidding farewell, Gurudev
disappeared. I was escorted up to Gomukh by his Virbhadra. It is not necessary
to mention the place where I was required to stay for about a year as they are
inaccessible places in the Himalayas.
While returning, I stayed at the place indicated by
Gurudev in Hardwar. It was the tapobhumi of Sapta-Risis, which was lying
deserted and was for sale. It was marshy. Ganga used to flow through this land
in the past. I liked it. The owner of the land was contacted; the deal was
struck and reduced into writing. I had to take decision all by myself. The
counsel of the advisors was of no avail, as I failed to make them understand
the mystical significance of the place, the purpose for which it was being
acquired and the blue-print of the proposed construction. Even the supervisory
work of construction had to be done by me. Thus came into being the Shantikunj
Saktipitha at Hardwar.
