A Time to go Inwards

Guruji has indicated that the next few months, upto around the middle of October are not so good and He has advised that we keep three things in mind

1. No adventure trips at all. No trekking, rafting, mountain climbing, etc

2. Cut down on partying and night outs

3. Drive slowly, carefully and don’t leave your house till you have finished your Sadhana

For these few weeks, please be more sattwic, eat at home more, not outside as much as possible…

lotsofwhiteflowershg

What i see in this, is it’s an opportunity for all of us to go more inwards. Clean up our life and start up some really good habits.Do all your Sadhana, Surya Namaskars, Padma Sadhana, Sudarshan Kriya, Sahaj. Also do chanting, Om Namah Shivaya and the Guru Pooja if you know it.

Start to read the Bhagavad Geeta and the Yoga Vasishtha … You know you have been wanting to do it, instead of that trek, sit home and read these books. Doesn’t matter if you don’t understand or it is too deep for you, just reading will open something up in you… Read these books just after meditation.

Go Inwards.

Be safe…

Jai Gurudeva!

bawa

  1. The impact you have bawa!

    I read this previously, now re-emphasis makes me want to strictly enforce.

    The rest of the post, was also truly inspiring!

    So many times in life, such good things get postponed indefinitely for lack of that push!

  2. Neil says:

  13. june says:

    is it because of the pattern of the three eclipses , same as the ‘mahabharat era’ ?
    any clues given by GURUJI?

  14. sunil kanwarjani says:

    • Bawa says:

      You can definitely come for Navaratri. This time is bad upto end of september. Don’t be paranoid, simply be careful and do your Sadhana v regularly

      • srini says:

        Thanks for your reply.I plan to come just after Ganesha Chathurthi,in September.Will do my Sadhana regulary.JGD!

  18. Sudha Pillai says:

    Thanks, Bawa. We take it as an opportunity to go within , more fervently.

    Praying for your mother… may she get well – real soon.

    Hi to Dinesh.

    Jgd

    Love,

    Gaurav & Sapna

  20. Shruthi says:

    Funny how this advice comes in at a time I am feeling frustrated with myself and having been wanting to be regular with sadhna. Thanks for strengthening my conviction Guruji!

  21. Aman says:

    i have started it :)
    and u r right bau its realy an opportunity to go inwards… :)

    realy don’t want to ever lose this feeling… that m blessed. :)
    reply bau.. ;) as an expression from you would make it some more special :)
    love you…… big hug. :)

  22. satish says:

    Bawa Yaar …
    this is not fair
    (the lines do rhyme :) )
    Please give little more details. Please.
    I was thinking that finally I might be coming out of a bad patch.
    Is it ok for new business ventures?
    Please Please Please provide more details.
    I saw a comment about your mother’s health. Not sure what it is about.
    My prayers and wishes for a lady who, according to me, has made a great contribution – letting her son dedicated his life to what he believes is a better cause

  23. satish says:

    Sorry for being a bit senti here…
    I definitely believe its a Great Sacrifice.
    Aaj kaal even mothers with 2-3 sons don’t want any one of her sons to dedicate his life for society. do this do that america jaao… paisa banao… gaaaawd…
    even I am probably guilty of such ‘herd’ mentality.

  24. Amit Vyaghrambare says:

    i have read this message today and i have started the same Thank you bau. Daily i do my kriya but some time i do in the evening but from tomorrow i won’t go out with out my sadhana.

    Jai Guru Dev

  25. Mark says:

    Please reply

    Thanxs Bau…

  26. Gautam says:

    My parents and some of my relatives have already booked a 3 week pilgrimage trip in September which includes a few places in the himalayas. They are hesitant to cancel it. How do I convince them?

    • Bawa says:

      Even dinesh’s parents had booked a trip like that. Infact his brother has flown down from the US for it. That trip has also been cancelled. Please do not invite trouble into your life :)

  27. Rakesh says:

    Jai Gurudev

    we are planning to go for Amarnath yatra and all booking done for 1st Aug -2nd aug
    pls advice we should go as per our planned trip. Pls reply

    love
    kitu

  28. Sabina says:

    Does that mean we should stay at home even if we want to attend a course in the presence of Guruji?

  29. Shruti says:

    This is Blessing in Disguise….Due to the presence of the master even the worst of times become THE BEST ONES. I have been doing regular sadhna earlier also . But these days, i feel it has made me all the more centered.
    I feel the purity/divinity as one does during one of the AOL courses.
    This is just as Guruji says meditation becomes much more effective when done at the time of eclipse…. Seems , same is the case now..!!

  30. gauri says:

    you will not believe it……when i left pune i started the Bhagwad Gita :)
    Bau you have just planned everything for me :) i will miss the night outs but it feels different to sleep early and on time so to speak ;)

  31. Pasha says:

    JGD!!

    I am giving interviews for a job change , I have a 3 months notice period so even if selected i will not be joining new company before October.
    shall i continue with interviews and searching for a new job?

    thanks
    P

    • Bawa says:

      yes yes please do that

      • Mimamsaka says:

        yes you should continue and find a job. once you get the job through grace you should contribute 50% of your salary to bawa.

        • Bawa says:

          50% is way too much, but approximately 5-10% to a charity of your choice is definitely recommended… We do need money for our ashram coming up in Bombay, so if you feel that you would like to contribute for that, it would be most welcome

  32. Dipal says:

    Jgd Bau,
    I will be graduating this august , after which i plan to leave my home city and search for a job in pune..should i go ahead with it?

  33. Vojka says:

    Dear Bawa,
    thank you! Your replies are very convincible.
    with love, vojka

  34. shardul says:

    Jai Gurudev !

    Is it something related to upcoming Planetary Combinations ?

    Some astrologers are talking about unfavorable conditions in coming months;
    in both social as well as personal lives of individuals..

    does that mean one’s past good/bad karma will play major role in this period ?

    • Bawa says:

      i am not too sure about all this… just be a little regular with your Sadhana, and avoid doing anything “adventurous”

  35. Vasudevan says:

    Yogesh, can i join with you to Himalayas or pls just guide me
    Regards

  36. Rahul says:

    JGD!
    Above 3 points dont say that you should not change your job, I’m looking for job change. what is your advice?

  37. Pankaj says:

    Bawa, i am in dilema thinking of changing the job, but after reading the blog, I am thinking whether i should changed my job or not.

  38. Silvi says:

    Hi,
    JGD
    thank you so much for sharing… will definitely strengthen my daily practices!
    Sept. 2 must travel with family from Argentina to U.A.E… not exactly an adventure trip, but very long flights… please let me know your advice.
    In gratitude,
    S

  39. Amruta says:

    Guruji is always there with us….
    But request all you beautiful people there to follow the same..
    Everything will be fine With his infinite grace,love,blessings and care..
    Thanks a lot Bau..!!!
    JaiGurudev

  40. Bhaskar says:

    Bawa,
    You are propagating silly superstitions in the name of spirituality. To the extent that they are small rituals, nobody says anything, but to base one’s life’s direction on superstition..Jeez! – reminds me of medevial india where the kings used to determine time of attack based on muhurat, instead of strategy. No wonder hindus lost to muslim invaders!.

    I’m surprised that being a science graduate you believe, and propagate this stuff. There is no conflict between science and spirituality, but these superstitions have nothing to do with either science or spirituality.

    • Bawa says:

      It’s up to you to follow any of what i say … regardless of whether you believe or not, there is no real harm in doing regular Sadhana, reading the Geeta and having a healthier lifestyle is there?
      Jai Gurudeva!
      bawa

  41. Floyd says:

    Bawa,

    This is a bit of a downer,to be very frank….I bought a cruiser bike recently and was raring to bike rides frm pune to mumbai and stuff… Now there is no question of doing that, after seeing this :( ….. JGD

  42. Micaela says:

    Thank you so much dears!
    I am Mica, I took the DSN here in Argentina that you gave! AMAZING BEYOND WORDS!
    I’m a total warrior now, these days have been magical, flying so much…
    :)
    Thank you so for sharing Guruji’s indications for the coming months… really commiting to it!

    This blog is AMAZING! Hope we Argentineans get to be shared with the rest of AOL through your words soon… It’d be such a honor!!

    I send you all the Love in the WORLD <3 and Dinesh too, of course! He’s got many marriage proposals when you come to visit us…. Hahahah
    Jai Guru Dev (L)!!!!
    Mica.

  43. Riddhi says:

  45. Sana says:

    Hi Bawa :)

    I am from Australia and I’ll be visiting India next month. I am doing the part 2 course on the 19th of august at the ashram. And after this, we have booked a tour of himachal pradesh. We won’t be doing any adventure activities but should we still go ahead with this trip? Please advice.

  46. Rahul says:

    JGD Bau,
    Can I go for job change, is this period good for job change. Please reply.
    Regards
    Rahul

  47. Dhabu says:

    I wanted to go from Gujarat to Maharasthra in first week of August — about 15 hrs trip for getting some AOL Training — is this also banned? I went 18 hours bus trip recently to an Ayurvedic hospital based on what a senior teacher said and then my feet were swollen when I got back and it turned out to be a waste of a trip of sorts… All my trips are related to AOL and/or spirituality so hard to tell what is okay? If I want to go to Kerala in august via busy is that also out? Or to go to some ashram?

  48. Maite says:

    Dear Bawa,

    Does this apply to all of us in the world or only you guys in India? Thanks for your reply.

    Jai Gurudeva!

  49. Riddhi Shah says:

    Between X, Y or Z and The Guru,
    I chose The Guru!
    And a rare precious realization flowed in!!!
