Guruji's teachings
Guruji gathered the questions people ask him most often, with the advice he usually gives. This page keeps his answers in his own words.
From the teachings of Sri Amritananda Natha Saraswati (Guruji). Post title: "A Summary of Queries by People: Guruji's Practical Remedies for Common Life Problems". Dated 5 November 2016. Posted on Guruji's blog by Vira Chandra. Originally published at amritananda-natha-saraswati.blogspot.com.
Guruji: You approach me for solutions for most of your day to day problems personally/phone/email. I have made a summary of your queries and the usual advice I give. Check here first before trying to get answers individually.
“I put in lot of effort. But I am not getting results. Something or the other happens, and the result does not come. Whether it is business, or job trials, or studies, I am not getting results. Help me.”
Ganapati creates obstacles. Appeased, He provides solutions. In short, I recommend Ganapati japa, tarpana, for 44 days, do homa with the dried leaves, and feeding 10 people.
If you don’t know this, here is a short explanation. Wherever you are, go to a nearby Ganapati temple. Go 28 rounds around the temple chanting:
“Om Sreem Hreem Kleem Glaum Gam Ganapathaye Vara Varada Sarva Janam Me Vasham Aanaya Svaahaa.”
Break a coconut. Make a wish. Tell Ganapati:
“I will chant your mantra 444 times daily for 44 days. I will make your image of you on any leaf (beetle leaf is best) like a pyramid with turmeric powder. I will offer perfumed water to it saying your mantra 444 times. I will offer the 44 leaves into fire with your mantra. I will feed 10 people. Please open a gateway to solve my problem.”
“My daughter/son is not getting married, however much we try.
My wife/husband quarrels with me. There is no peace in home.
We are trying but no children. We got checked. Low sperm count or small uterus or irregular menses. We are using medicines. We really want a boy/girl. Help us.”Usually some kind of Naga/Kuja dosha works against conjugal harmony or begetting children. This is connected with sex chakra. Doing puja and mantra massage there gives results.
These are best done after invoking 100 jeeva kalas into the girl to be married or infertile woman or couple. The main mantras used are:
Ganesha
Subrahmanya
Baala
GuruRudrabhishekam and rudra homam also help.
These are complicated procedures, and not to be attempted without initiation and training. You can get this done at Devipuram or in places in India or abroad where trained teachers can be found. Siri Jyoti puja at your home is an excellent way of clearing your home from all evil influences.
“I am interested in learning Srividya after proper initiation and kalavahana. I am fed up with shortcuts which don’t work. I want moksha and directly see and experience Goddess. But I have to support my family, and don’t have much time for sadhana.”
You should take proper deeksha from a guru you believe in. Be in the presence of Guru, physically or astrally. Follow his/her advice. For some, realization comes early; for some, it may take many lifetimes. It all depends on the range and depth of vasanas.
Together, these questions cover 95% of the cases.
May Goddess help you solve your problems and show you the proper way.
Guruji, "A Summary of Queries by People: Guruji's Practical Remedies for Common Life Problems", as posted on Guruji's blog by Vira Chandra on 5 November 2016. The text is kept as in the original. A photograph on the original post is not copied here.
Guruji starts with Ganapati, the one who removes obstacles. This matches the Kaula habit of beginning any work with Ganapati, in worship and in the fire.
For marriage and children, Guruji ties the problem to the body's energy centres and says the remedies are not for self-study. He is clear that they need initiation and trained teachers. Nothing here is a method to try on your own.
His last answer is about the path itself. Take deeksha from a guru you trust, stay near the Guru and follow the advice. Guruji attained mahasamadhi in October 2015, and Guru Amma Annapurnamba guides the lineage today. This site is an independent practitioner's space and does not speak on behalf of Devipuram.
He says Ganapati creates obstacles and, when pleased, gives solutions. He recommends Ganapati japa and tarpana for 44 days, a homa with the dried leaves, and feeding 10 people.
In the vow Guruji gives, the mantra is chanted 444 times daily for 44 days. He also describes 28 rounds of a Ganapati temple with a mantra.
Guruji says these are complicated and not to be attempted without initiation and training. He says they can be done at Devipuram or with trained teachers.
He says to take proper deeksha from a guru you believe in, be in the Guru's presence, and follow the advice. He says realization may come early or take many lifetimes, depending on the vasanas.
Guruji calls Siri Jyoti puja at home an excellent way to clear a home of evil influences.
