Preface

A birth in this sacred land of Bharata Varsha, the only place of Dharma and Karma, is a gift by itself, and a man born here especially in Sanatana Dharma, certainly thinks of salvation, inspired by saints and sages, tradition, scriptures, holy rivers and mountains, and aspires to do some Sadhana to reach that glorious end of eternal peace and bliss, even though he is caught up in the whirlwind of materialistic busy modern life.

Nobody is unaware of the stark reality of life that he has to go empty handed leaving behind everything to an unknown world someday; and everyone has seen even the most powerful men on earth biting dust, as did his own forefathers. Yet what is more surprising is that, everyone thinks that such a day comes only to others, not to himself, until the inevitable fated hour strikes. So he keeps busy with his worldly goal, earning money and enjoying life, by hook or crook. Money, which is synonymous with happiness, fails to give him peace, especially in the terminal days of life, and all the wealth and power under the sun become worthless and helpless to give the much needed solace to his soul or save his life one day longer. Only a few wise ones realise this fact and recognise well early in life that there is a Power, beyond what the petty human intelligence can discern and earnestly prepare themselves to reach that power so that they do not have to repent for a wasted life in the end.

Introduction

1.1 WHAT IS SADHANA?

The work necessary to clean the mind is sadhana. If you want to clean a dirty cloth you need water, soap and a person to wash. These are the instruments. The instruments alone are not enough to clean, but actual action is necessary. The instruments along with the action is sadhana. The instruments and the action necessary to purify the mind is spiritual sadhana.

The word sadhana comes from the samskritam root saadh to accomplish or to reach the goal of life. Reaching the goal of life or salvation and the action necessary therein is sadhana. In the example of cleaning a cloth, the instruments and the action being gross, are directly perceptible and therefore can be easily understood, once observed without any effort. But the mind being subtle and imperceptible, the knowledge of its cleaning and purifying is not observable and is therefore difficult to understand. It must be learnt from a person who knows well the art and science of it. We have to learn it from the scriptures written by ancient Rishis and the present day Gurus who are adepts in it.
