This is in reference to my previous letters and proposals relative to Shaktipat Tradition’s current downturn. Your opinion, suggestions, amendments, reactions and co-operation had been requested. Your response after this long while is still awaited.

My motivation in initiating and pursuing this effort and the aforesaid earlier communication results from the inspiration and guidance I have received from my Gurus. I have had the opportunity of being in the true service and company of my Guru for a long time before inheriting "Gurupad" from him. Additionally I have had a long experience in proposing, building and managing Guru-Ashram and observing numerous Guru-brother Sadhaks, relationships and contacts from close quarters. This experience and vast database allowed me to rationally analyze the present and comparative state of "Shaktipaat tradition". The above referenced proposals were in no way intended to attack and criticize any one personally.

Those who have achieved self-realization, enlightenment, divinity of worship by everyone. Those who are in possession of divine, salvation and have become "SHIVA", are always worthy powers, Siddhis and are capable of transforming any one else either by inspiring them to perform necessary Sadhana or by their sheer power and resolve, are not necessarily subject to the prescribed restrictions and rules even by holy Shastras. They may choose to follow Shastra-stated procedures and rules to establish ideal and useful precedence in the world for coming generations and most of them do so. The proposal I sent you earlier is meant for only those Gurus who are demeaning and devaluing the Shaktipaaat tradition, misusing it for attainment of their own worldly desires/pleasures and exploiting it for their business, establishing Ashrams in its name and for their own fame. My proposal was also for those who claim themselves as disciple Saadhak and follower of this tradition but do not have the knowledge of the essentials of this Divine Power, and therefore, they think of it to be trivial, easy, a matter of entertainment and curiosity or use it to portray themselves to be religious and spiritual. Many such so called Dikshit disciples who receive this Divine Dikshaa without proper purpose and thoughtlessly, do not even devote the required time for Saadhana regularly. Such disciples and such initiator Gurus are not only causing devaluation of this Divine power but also bringing about deterioration in their own self. Even in this false and always changing world there are certain rules and regulations for administration and if we fail to follow them, we are punished. How can then we expect to be spared from the punishment, which is stated in the Shaastras for the violation of regulations related to this Divine power ? Punishment for such violations is a certainty whether it is obvious at the moment or delayed, but this punishment is very dire in nature.

The position and status of a Guru of this Divine Dikshaa carries very serious responsibilities that are unavoidable and very difficult to bear. This is why disciple Saadhak chants in the prayer : "Gururbrahma, Gururvishnu, Gururdevo Maheshwarah". Therefore, it is Guru's duty, Dharma and utmost responsibility and liability to remove the disciples' illusions to ensure his self-realization experience and to rid him of the vicious birth and death cycles. Guru can only be debt-free from the services, faith, devotion and offerings of the disciple when he has satisfied him by providing his desired, else the Guru will carry this debt with him which will need to be paid to become unburdened and free. This is why Shaastras declare regulations, which say that Guru must know and clearly understand the desires, wishes and expectations, objectives etc. of the aspirant and accept him/her as disciple only if he is quite capable of awarding that. Otherwise he should not accept the responsibility as a Guru.

One who himself is covered with the darkness and illusions of knowledgelessness and is rapt in the sickness of the worldliness and bodily ego, cannot cure someone’s similar problems and provide him enlightenment. Granted that the disciple may be able to achieve solely on account of his own devotion, determination, resolve and intense Sadhana. There, this fact must never be forgotten that gathering a number of disciples on account of worldly ego, passion for wealth, status and fame, which in actuality are worthless and to become debted, burdened, self-degrading is neither in the least interest of any Guru or this Guru-Tradition.

Those who are in total darkness and are running business in the name of religion, Gods and divinities are not the subjects of discussion here. But the Gurus and Dikshit Saadhakas of this Divine Shaktipaat Tradition must be much more elevated, superior, knowledgeable and thoughtful in my opinion. Therefore the above-mentioned letters of proposals were sent only to them to provoke their thoughts. This is not for one or by one individual, but the responsibility of all those jointly who are benefited and obliged by this tradition and those who are associated with it, that they extend their full cooperation willingly and enthusiastically in the endeavor of removing the causes, errors and corruptions which are causing its down-fall. This must be restored to its full actual glory.

Therefore I urge you again to forward your opinion, suggestions, amendments and cooperation promptly. If you have any doubts, 'objections and even opposition, please write unhesitatingly. I intend to make my best efforts to resolve those all. With thanks, in the service of divinity,
