The arrangement of the idols of deities in our temple room at home should be made as per the picture strip of the seven deities published by Sanatan Sanstha. The recently published picture of Sri Durgadevi should also be placed next to the picture of Sri Mahalakshmidevi and worshipped as usual. Those who have loose pictures of the seven deities should place the picture of Sri Mahalakshmidevi on the left of the picture of Sri Durgadevi.

    For the smooth functioning and completion of any project or mission, in a prescribed time limit, it is essential to cultivate a work system wherein various procedures are developed. Such procedures are laid down in the Sanatan’s various projects and satsevas in different regions. Many times, due to their personality defects, some seekers either forget to follow the procedures or do not follow the procedures in a proper manner. This results in mistakes in the satseva and a loss to the organization on other counts. The following example demonstrates this:

    It is a procedure in the Sanatan’s ashram to refrigerate all leftovers every night. However, the seeker concerned would sometimes forget to do this and hence the next day the food would get spoiled. Those who tend to forget the procedures or are unable to follow the procedures properly should give autosuggestions for improvement in this regard. For example, in this incident, the seeker who was forgetful, and hence could not follow the procedure, would give the autosuggestion “Whenever there is left-over food, I will remember that it should be kept in the refrigerator and I shall do so.”

    Sanatan Sanstha is spreading its mission of nation building, protecting the nation and awakening of righteousness (Dharma) in India and abroad on a massive scale. The working of the Sanstha is also transparent. However, it is observed that some anti-social elements in the districts of Mumbai, Thane and Raigad (all in India) are deliberately giving wrong information about Sanatan’s mission to the public and are actively defaming and maligning the organization. If such incidents are on the increase in their region, the seekers, readers and well wishers should contact the regional seekers or District seeker and get their doubts cleared in this regard.

    Even though doing spiritual practice (sadhana) is difficult in the current era of Kaliyug, if one fights for righteousness in this difficult situation, his spiritual progress occurs rapidly. Such a soul goes to Mahalok after death.

    One who honestly fights for unrighteousness goes to Bhuvalok after death. This is because he is honest despite fighting for unrighteousness. God likes honesty.

    On the contrary, God sends one who is neither with righteousness nor with unrighteousness, that is, who is on both sides and talks very sweetly taking sides as per the situation, to hell because he is dishonest. Such a soul spends many years in that particular plane of existence facing punishment.

  It has been observed that distressing energies have spread a black covering on the pictures and photos of H.H. Pagnis Maharaj, and the articles He gave to Sanatan’s seekers and the spiritual practice He had advised them. Hence, as a precautionary measure, seekers are advised not to keep H.H. Pagnis Maharaj’s pictures, photos or His articles with them any more and instead to forward them to the Dainik Sanatan Prabhat office to Shri Ashish Sawant, Sukhsagar, Opp. Municipal Garden, Phonda, Goa.

    While forwarding the above articles, the seeker should write his full name and address on a separate sheet of paper and any special information they have regarding the picture. Detailed information regarding the articles of H.H. Pagnis Maharaj may be included e.g. when and why the article was given, any particular care to be taken regarding the article, the seekers’ spiritual experiences (anubhutis) in this regard etc. If H.H. Pagnis Maharaj has given any ‘Mantra’ for chanting (Mantrajap), detailed information in this regard should also be included.

    Please note that these pictures and articles may be forwarded only through a seeker who is likely to visit the office of the Dainik Sanatan Prabhat. In no case should these things be sent via courier service or any other medium.

    School and college examinations are almost over and students will have a summer holiday. The holiday can be utilized for some constructive purpose such as learning how to handle computers, repairing computers and vehicles, developing writing skills, cooking skills or the skills of office management etc. In addition, they can also help other seekers in their respective satsevas or participate in satsevas in the ashram. This training will not only help them personally, but also society in general when the nation passes through difficult times. Seeker students and their parents should inform the district seekers about their plans now itself .

Note : The district seekers may be informed of your skills in advance. The planning for coming to the ashrams may be made after discussing the matter with them. While coming to say in the ashram, the seekers should bring their own mattresses, ‘blankets, etc.

    In a previously published article in the Dainik Sanatan Prabhat, Sri Durgadevi was mentioned to have said, “In a situation where the good and the bad co-exist and the bad is exceedingly distressful, if the good gets destroyed in the process of total annihilation of the bad, it is quite all right.” In this regard, Sri Ram Rishi has clarified the matter further in the following manner:

    At present Sri Durgadevi is coming down to the level of the devotees and helping them. It is not that the devotees have increased their level of devotion and thus She has come down to help them.

    One may be inclined to think that if the good is going to be destroyed along with the bad, why should one become good in the first place? However, if our goodness is up to the mark, that means if we are really taking sincere efforts towards our spiritual practice, then we will not be destroyed along with the bad.
