1. What is transmission?
Transmission is the utilisation of the
Divine Power for the transformation of man by
bringing balanced state of mind.
2. What is the efficacy
of pranahuti?
Master said “As a matter of fact,
what pranahuti does for the spiritual uplift of
an abhyasi and the removal of complexities in
a short time, independent efforts cannot achieve
even in a full decade.” Power of transmission
is a yogic attainment of a very high order by
which a yogi can infuse by his own will force
the yogic energy or Godly effulgence within anyone
and remove anything unwanted in him or detrimental
to his spiritual progress. Spiritual training
or the attainment of higher stages is only possible
by the process of yogic transmission and by no
other means. This is power working through the
channels of pure mind.
3. When there is one
to one relationship between me and God, why another
person (Trainer) between us? Can't God directly
give us what ever He wants to give?
One to One relationship between soul
and God is a fact. God can directly give the individual
and it is true He is the only giver. But it is
true He seldom does give unless one is deserving.
In the process of creative descent soul got away
from God (awareness) and it started identifying
itself as a separate entity (ego / individuality),
gathering around itself veils of grossness and
so on- finally as Rev. Master puts 'Individual
creation' was established. Hence, unless all the
coverings of grossness (Mal, Vikshep, Avaran)
are removed, ego is subdued and purified to the
last possible degree (State of Negation) and the
mind (Manas, Buddhi, Chit and Ahankar) is brought
to a purified state, it is not possible to discern
or comprehend that one to one relationship with
God. For that purification, regular influxes of
Pranahuti are most essential and therefore assistance
of another brother / sister who is permitted by
Master to assist the seeker through Pranahuti
is very essential. All sadhana is one to make
oneself deserving. In earning this deservancy
the trainer helps. Therefore, Pranahuti aided
Meditation is a unique boon to Humanity to get
to that awareness of God by God for God through
sincere prayer.
4. What is the relationship
between the trainer and the abhyasi?
Doing is the duty of the trainer, Becoming
is the duty of the abhyasi.
5. You (Trainer) are
sitting with me during meditation. Is It that
you are acquainting me of the meditation system
or are you praying for me?
The Trainer during sittings and more
so during individual sitting attends to cleaning
of the heart and other centres and removes grossness
which is the cause for various perversities, angularities
and imperfections and strives to improve the astral
condition of the abhyasi methodically. The trainer
also through the process of Pranahuti diverts
the Divine grace to the Heart and assists the
seeker on the path. It is also true that the trainer
prays for the spiritual growth of the seeker and
also supports the meditation of abhyasi on divine
light. The importance of Pranahuti can be understood
from the article 'Spiritual Training Through Yogic
Transmission' of Revered Babuji Maharaj and through
the article 'Pranahuti - Its relevance in Sadhana'
of in the book Bodhayanti Parasparam Vol I.
6. What about personal
limitations of the Trainer?
The personal limitations of the trainer
do not have any effect on the abhyasi. What he
apparently seems to be transmitting comes direct
from the Unlimited. It is not really the teacher
himself who is imparting anything to the abhyasi
through transmission, but the Great Master who
does everything. The trainer must, however, have
his will sufficiently developed to effect the
course of the flow towards the abhyasi.
7. Are individual sittings
required after introduction?
Individual sittings are very essential.
Pranahuti is offered during individual sitting,
satsangh and bhandara only.
8. How long do we need
to take individual sittings? Is there any time
frame?
Individual sittings have to be taken
till the Goal is reached (Towards Infinity). There
is no time frame / limit. Regular sittings with
the trainer and satsanghs are essential to receive
Pranahuti.
9. What about people
who would like to practice the system where the
trainer is not there for individual sittings/Satsanghs?
Such Abhyasi (after introduction into
the system for which three individual sittings
are mandatory) should continue to practice the
methods, following the commandments. They may
take individual sittings (long distance / in absentia)
from a qualified trainer.
10. If the aspirant wants
to progress slowly, can he do the practice by
himself (not attending sittings and satsanghs)?
The question is something strange. The
choice is that of the individual.
11. How to help an aspirant
develop love and devotion for Master in an easy
and natural manner and make him understand that
Master is Master as God is God and we do need
Master to reach Him.
Only when a person feels that he/she
cannot do the work with out the help of another
the question of assistance arises. Some persons
have a feeling that they can do everything and
only experience should teach them that they are
correct or otherwise. There is no better solution
for this problem than the prayer at 9 p.m. given
by the Master.
12. There was a happy
feeling to learn that my husband is my trainer.
I can’t say why may be because I love him
very much and to depend on him comes natural to
me.
That is our way of life and then only
the ambition of Master that every house should
become an Ashram can be realised.
13. One abhyasi could
never feel "Pranahuti". She believes
she used to go in "sleep" like states
and subsequent calmness and settledness observed
were no different/better than her sitting in some
corner silently and getting up after 10 or 15
minutes.
The question in this regard is whether
it is really so? When a person says he/she does
not feel Pranahuti we should accept the same.
But for anything the yielding attitude to experiment
should be there. Only when we experiment there
is experience.
