Treasure of thoughts on the Nation and Dharma

Out of the 3 Marathi Editions of the ‘Dainik Sanatan Prabhat’ here is a treasure of thoughts from Paratpar Guru (Dr.) Athavale that give us an insight into the pathetic state of our Nation and Dharma, and the only solutions to problems we face today.

Who is a Saint – Science of Spirituality

The criteria to recognise a Saint depend on the Path He follows – Dnyanyoga (Path of Knowledge), Karmayoga (Path of Action), Bhaktiyoga (Path of Devotion) etc. Depending on the spiritual level, the criteria can also differ.

Terrible state of emergency experienced by the people in Nepal due to the several ups and downs that occurred at the political level post declaring Nepal a secular nation!

According to the new constitution, Nepal was declared a secular nation on 20.9.2015. There have been and still are many ups and downs at the political level since the adoption of the new constitution. From food and medicine to industrial materials, Nepal is dependent on India. The five borders between India and Nepal were closed for five months. This completely disrupted public life in Nepal.

Identify unpleasant incidents of the day that are obstacles in sadhana !

The average seekers experience that their efforts in vyashti and samashti sadhana progress satisfactorily. However, all of a sudden, these efforts slacken. The reasons for the slackening may not be comprehended at that time. After this, the seeker does not feel like making any further efforts to perform sadhana. This gets repeated the next day, and when several such days pass, negative thoughts start increasing.

Yantra to eliminate all problems and obstacles in sadhana

This Yantra (a symbolic representation of aspects of divinity) is useful for eliminating the obstacles created in sadhana (Spiritual practice), such as repeatedly falling ill or getting injured, suffering from spiritual distress, breakdown of equipment associated with seva (Service unto the Absolute Truth), vehicle etc. or facing any other obstacles.

Be grateful to those who point out your mistakes !

We should treat the individual who points out our mistakes as our real friend. He loves us truly ! When we comprehend that God only manifested through his medium and educated us for our spiritual progress, we will start progressing spiritually in earnest.
