Getting a Diksha without a Guru: Dakshinamurti Prayog
One of the biggest problems we face in Kaliyug is lack of gurus or gurus that are not money-driven. That is why, I am sharing a special prayog to get diksha.
The prayog is dedicated to Lord Dakshinamurti. And it is said that the power of the diksha received through this method is even greater than getting a diksha from a human guru.
1. Do this prayog on a Shukla paksha Trayodashi at Nishakaal.
2. Sit on a red velvet aasan or a kushasan.
3. Light a diya and chant 1 mala of ganesh naam mantra.
4.Do namaskar of Lord Shiva in the shivling you have at home.
5. Write the mantra that you desire to get diksha of, on a bhojpatra or a piece of paper. The mantra should be written with yellow ink. At the store, you will get lekhani and ashtagandha. By adding a few drops of water you will be able to create yellow ink. If you dont get a large enough bhojpatra, tear a piece of an A4 paper. Ruled notebook page is not allowed because it has lines.
6. After this, chant 1 mala of Dakshinamurti gayatri and 1 mala gayatri mantra of the god you want a diksha of. Then, staring at the mantra itself while simultaneously meditating on Lord Dakshinamurti in the shivalinga, chant the mantra written on the bhojpatra for 108 times.
7. Then go to sleep. In your sleep if you see auspicious dreams, then it means that you have received the diksha. If you do not see any dreams or if you see inauspicious dreams then you wont get that mantra's diksha.
8. For sleeping, your head should be east side and you should sleep by turning on the right side. i.e. your eyes will be towards north direction.
That is it. Hope that using this one of a kind prayog, people get diksha of their desired mantra.
Some important points to consider:
- Sadhaks, you will always only get diksha of mantras that god knows you're capable of doing a sadhana of.
- Getting a diksha from a devta like Dakshinamurti doesn't relieve you of following procedures and rules necessary for your mantra.
- The easiest mantras to get diksha of, are of navagrahas. At the same time, they are the ones who give the fastest results, the most stable results while getting pleased with the least amount of puja.
- Only seek dikshas of mantra whose method you're capable of following.
- Gayatri Mantra - A mantra whose diksha is given to everyone in Sanatana Dharma in other yugas. It is a siddha mantra that gives 360' benefits. If you havent received Gayatri diksha yet, this is the 1st mantra you should ask for.
- Vishnu Ashtakshari Mantra - It is not a siddha mantra. The siddhi is achieved on 32 lakh chants. But it is a necessary sadhana for all vaishnavas.
- Shiva Panchakshari Mantra - Like the above, a compulsory mantra for Shaivas capable of fulfilling all desires. Siddhi is achieved on 24 lakh chants.
- Navgraha Beej Mantras - They are the easiest to get a diksha of and you have the highest probability of getting a diksha of it. An energised yantra and panchopchar puja are mandatory without which the japa will not show results.
- Kuber Mantra - For copious money, prosperity and all other material forms of wealth.

Gayatri Mantras: The center-point of all gods
For each achar there are methods of worshipping gayatri, with minor differences. Mool gayatri is a mantra who sadhana is mandatory for every sadhak before he starts a purascharan of any god. First the sadhak has to do atleast 1 lakh japa of mool gayatri. Then, he has to keep on worshipping her for 3 months atleast and let her be the protector and nourisher of his/her life.
Only when the sadhak has done this, does he get the permission from his guru to do purascharya of other gods. The significance of mool gayatri doesnt end here. It doesnt matter which god/goddess you are worshipping, you still need to do 10,000 japa of mool gayatri before starting the purascharan of any god. Keep in mind that in this phase, you need to do mool gayatri and that specific god's gayatri.

Daan: Its Significance & Types
In an article I shared some time ago, I talked about the power of daan. Today I will talk about the same in detail and how you can benefit from it.
The greatest dharma in various yugas was/is as follows:
Satyuga(also called as krit yuga) - Tapasya
Treta yuga - Gyaan i.e. wisdom (not the same as knowledge)
Dwapar yuga - Yagya
Kali yuga - Daan or Donation
In Kali-yuga, Daan is the most powerful and quickest in showing results. That is why one should donate every day.
Kali-yuga is the yuga of karma. Anything did by you, positive or negative quickly shows its effects on your life in this age. Many say that there are people in powerful positions who are doing crimes or awful deeds yet nothing is happening to them. However, in reality, they definitely pay for their deeds very soon after doing it. But it won't necessarily be visible to the world.
Whenever you will try to go away from a truthful and honest way of living - either by trying to cause loss to others or by sacrificing your own self - you will have pain. This is what bad karma really is. To do good karma is to say, do and think what is true & honest - nothing more than the truth, nothing less than the truth. If you say/do/think more than what things really are by exaggerating it - it will cause pain to others and in turn, you will feel the effects of this. If you compromise with the truth and say/do less than the truth - you will betray your own self and get hurt in life. Life is about balance. Anything in excess - including love, power, strength, money, food, medicine - are all bad.
This way sadhaks, every person suffers from their karmas. It is my experience, that no matter how many angles the outside world may look at, it is always someone's wrong actions that lead him to pain. Wrong actions don't mean just criminal actions, but anything that is opposite to the laws of nature and wellbeing of the people influenced due to that action - and this includes you yourself.
It is mentioned in purans that at any given moment, we are carrying sins of not just few births, but of billions and billions of Kalpa. One kalpa is equal to 4.32 billion years. So, how many years in crores of kalpas? And what would be total number of sins? Uncountable. Yet, there is one good aspect of sins. That the moment a person accepts his deeds, he is quickly forgiven. But, since the number of sins are practically uncountable, even if one simply goes on and on asking for forgiveness, his entire life will be not suffice.
By chanting mantras, you can speedily remove all your sins. Yet, they are still not that fast to burn sins of crores of kalpas and need decades of continuously chanting that one mantra alone. Havan is more powerful than japa, yet, doing havan with thousands of aahuti every day for even a few days is not feasible. Vrats are way more powerful than mantras for burning sins. Yet, even they require you to fast on every specified tithi for atleast one decade for complete freedom from sins.
However, daan is the most powerful out of them all. When you give away even simple things like just 1kg of rice or other similar grains, you burn every single sin of dozens to hundreds of births instantly. Those who donate with belief in the power of God, will physically experience like a weight has been lifted off your head, and instantly feel relaxed.
Donation doesn't just burn sins, it increases punya, increases sukh, makes you attractive, creates saubhagya, gives courage and victory. That is why sadhaks, do daan. Donate as much as you can.
Shastras have mentioned various daan according to a person's wishes. Whatever you want, you should donate it first, then it will come to you. This is the rule. For wishes where donating something first is not possible, shastras have mentioned what should be donated instead. Today I will be mentioning them all. Only certain things can be donated for burning sins. All others are for specific wish fulfilment. Sadhaks, whatever we donate in this life is what we receive when we die. I won't mention this benefit in the paragraphs ahead and should be understood for each item. Also, burning sins doesn't automatically increase your punya. So you should be specific about what you want.
1. Grains & Water - The most powerful daan among all is the daan of grains and water. Grains should always be donated with water. Donating grains and water removes our sins of hundreds of births, increases punya, gives strength and radiance, gives saubhagya and fulfils all material wishes.
2. Salt - Donating salt increases appetite and gives good health. When a person on death bed is not dying and unnecessarily suffering, then salt should be donated for him. That will give him swarga or moksha very soon.
3. Jaggery - Donating jaggery gives vigour and sweet foods in life.
4. Ghee - Donating ghee gives physical strength, improves the wellbeing of your entire kul and gives sadgati to pitrus.
5. Black sesame - Donating black sesame gives strength and removes the fear of death. It burns the sins of thousands of births. It pleases all the navagrahas and brings their blessings.
6. Money - Donating money will attract more money.
7. Clothes - Donating clothes give beauty and saubhagya.
8. Bells - Donating bells remove laziness, dumbness and build intelligence, sharpness and understanding.
9. Khadga - Donating the weapon khadga gives victory and success. Especially, it brings the blessings of Rahu.
10. Books - Donating religious books increase punya, gyaan and devbhakti. Donating educational books increase punya, knowledge, fame, patience and remove addictions.
11. Gold - Donating gold increases Shri & aishwarya.
12. Silver - Donating silver gives beauty and increases sperm count.
13. Rudraksha - By donating Ekadash mukhi Rudraksha to the right person, he/she for sure achieves moksha after death.
14. Bed - Donating bed gives love/marriage.
15. Medicines - Donating medicines gives good health and ensures that your family will never face any big health issue.
16. Kanya daan - Kanya daan is done only during marriages. Kanya daan burns away sins of crores and crores of births and gives great punya. Now, shastras say that one should not do kanya daan again. But, in case the husband dies or they both divorce, then kanya daan should be done again. Shastras say kanya daan shouldn't be done at many people i.e. she shouldn't be marrying multiple men at the same time. But it doesn't mean she can't marry again if the ex-husband dies or gets divorced.
17. Bhumi - Donating land has the power to burn sins of crores of kalpas. In that, if a person donates a fertile land then even better. The person who donates land to the needy will never go to narak. But a barren land should never be donated.
18. Cow - Donating cow is one the only daan which has the power to wipe out almost all your sins of crores and crores of kalpas. The moment of donating a cow should be considered as a moment of reincarnation of the sadhak. The person who donates a cow wipes out all his sins, gets the punya of feeding thousands of brahmins. After death he surely goes to swarga or gets moksha. Also, after death, the cow donated by him comes as a vehicle for crossing the vaitarini nadi, and instead of taking him to narak the cow takes him to vaikunth.
In this, if the sadhak donates a cow with his calf, then its punya is infinite. It will same as doing pran pratishtha of hundreds of shivling, donating hundreds of acres of land, feeding millions of brahmins and donating lacs of kanya daan. The person who has donated a cow with a calf has truly freed himself all the chains and shall live happily thereafter.
19. Diya - One of the easiest things to donate are diyas. Deep daan cures diseases, increases eyesight and radiance, attracts Lakshmi maa, and gives victory over enemies. Use ghee when you want to attract wealth. Use sesame oil when you want to cure diseases, increase eyesight & radiance, getting victory over enemies.
Other than this, whatever you want, you should donate it and it will come to you. Do this and you will see the magic happening. But don't doing by being attached to the outcome. Donate it with gratitude. Thank god that even though your condition is bad, it is not bad as the person you are donating it to. And donate so that the needy person gets support. By doing this, God will support you. Sadhaks, I have seen huge miracles through donations. Things that could take months to happen, happened in just a few weeks when people started donating.
The benefits I mentioned above are the list of benefits. Donating, say foodgrains, is not going to automatically give you all of the listed benefits. Depending upon your wish, you should take the sankalp and do a donation for that specific wish/es.

Why the mantras or stotras are not showing you results
- First, stop all mantra chanting for at least 21 days. During these days, only light diya and agarbatti at home. Every day, attend aarti of a local temple which has many gods. If you are going through some problem, do daan. But avoid any kind of mantra/stotra paath or vrat. After aarti, bow in front of every god and accept every god's blessings.
- During these days, read about the life stories of the gods. How were they born, what did they do, etc. Then, choose any 2-3 gods whose story inspires you the most and towards whom you feel the most inclination.
- Then, read about the significance of worshipping each of those gods. Out of them all, choose any one god you feel the most inclination towards. Choose the one you feel emotionally connected to and not the one you think is the more powerful one.
- Choose any popular stotra of that god and recite it every day 5-11 times every day for at least 40 days. During these days, visit the temple every day and pray to god daily. Chant only one stotra and don't search for other gods or other mantras. This will remove the downward cycle of constantly comparing one god/mantra with another.
- Non-violence - Unnecessary violence, violence to show your power,etc. should be stopped. But non-violence doesn't mean to not stand up for yourself.
- Honesty and truthfulness - Honesty means to live an honest life, to live in accordance with the laws of nature. Don't think that you have some special ability to bend the laws of karma to your own accord. Be honest with yourself, be honest for yourself, be honest in your work and duty, be honest in love and with friends, and be honest even when nobody is watching. Give up the illogical belief shared by the previous generations that honesty will destroy you.
The entire world, irrespective of religion, works on laws of karma. What you give out into the world, you will get it back. Like attracts like. If you start deceiving and manipulating people or even just think of manipulating people who are honest with you, within 2-3 months your life will be flipped and you will be surrounded by people who are just like you - dishonest and manipulative. Laws of Karma don't allow a person's bad actions to affect an honest person. If you are dishonest, god will bring you to people who are like you so that you both cancel out each other's bad karmas. But, there will be no peace of mind with these kinds of people. Truthfulness means to say the truth in every situation. But truthfulness can only be practiced by those who are living an honest life. - No stealing - materially or mentally - Don't steal or think of stealing something that is not yours.
- Brahmacharya - Following celibacy doesn't mean life-long celibacy. If celibacy was this important, God wouldn't have allowed grihastha dharma. But what it means is giving up on the habit of too much sex and uncontrolled sex. Celibacy will radically transform your health, intelligence, and strength. It revitalizes the aging organs; removes laziness, fear and gives intelligence, youthfulness, and courage.
- Non-greed - Not having greed for money doesn't mean you shouldn't work to become rich, wealthy, or abundant. That is stupidity. But it means that you shouldn't hoard it or think that I will have all the money in the world and not let single rupee go out of my pocket. The money that has come from somewhere will go somewhere - this is the nature of money. You can't change it.
- Cleanliness - Live clean physically and mentally. In Hinduism, sins done even in dreams are recorded by god. The reason is that our dreams are a representation of the thoughts in our subconscious mind. Even thoughts manifest in our life. If you think that you'll do so-and-so bad towards someone, the results of the wrong actions will manifest as if you had actually done those wrong actions. Physical cleanliness is also important. Lack of cleanliness creates lethargy, negative thoughts, and increases anger, lust, ego, etc.
- Santosh or Contentment - Don't build expectations. Expectations and attachment to outcome is the root of all suffering. When have attachment and expect people and events to behave or turn out a certain way, your whole life will fill with anguish, frustration, sorrow, anger, and sleepless nights.
- Tapa - Do penance - in work and in the spiritual world. Tapa is what will break the downward spiral, or stagnation in your life. Simply reacting to what is happening in life and implementing a temporary solution may remove the problem, but it will not stop the stagnation. To grow means to flourish completely and in a way that the old problems don't come back. For this, you need to do tapa. Sacrifice is necessary in the sadhana world and for growth in life. That is why, you have to sacrifice everything that is acting as an obstacle to your growth, including bad habits, impulsive behaviors, constantly complaining people, jealous people, laziness, etc.
- Study - Study good literature - spiritual as well as worldly. So that you become an overall good and skilled person for sadhana world as well as the material world. This will help you realize your values, morals, and give direction to your life purpose.
- Ishwar Pranidhan - Surrender to the will of God. Accept the obstacles and difficulties as opportunities to learn. Accept that certain things had to happen the way it happened - so that you could learn from the pain. Don't be stubborn, that things should happen only in so-and-so way. Pray to God and let God lead you.
