Alternatives for Recommendations in Mantra Tantra Sadhna

In this post, I have written about some alternatives for those prescriptions given for a Mantra Tantra Sadhana, which you are unable to follow due to some or the other reason. The next best, possible option or recommendation has been given in this post, however, these alternatives cannot be followed, if the prescriptions are mentioned as being mandatory and irreplaceable.

1] When, it is not possible to perform a Mantra Sadhana that has been prescribed to be practiced at 12 o’clock at night, it can be performed at 12 o’clock in the afternoon, instead of Midnight.

2] When it has been prescribed to use a human skull[Manushya Ki Khopdi] to prepare Kajal/ Churna or any other preparation for a Mantra Sadhana and it is not possible to do so, then, you can use half a part of a coconut shell [Nariyal Ki Khopdi]  for the same, instead of the human skull.

3] When, it has been prescribed that a Mantra Sadhana has to be done completely naked and if it is not possible to do so, then, untying the knot of the Dhoti or the thread of the pajama is the next best possible option. Ladies can unties the knot of the Saree or the thread of the Salwar.

4] If it is not possible to perform a Mantra Sadhana in a Chouraha, then, one can erect a Mud Chabutra in his home and draw 4 lines cross-crossing the Chabutra as representing the 4 roads and the Chabutra as the center point of the Chouraha. The practitioner can thus, perform the Mantra Sadhana on this spot, instead of the Chabutra.

5] If unable to perform a Mantra Prayog in a Smashan Bhoomi, the practitioner can perform it in a lonely and quiet place by spreading the ashes taken from the Smashan Bhoomi on that spot.

Any Mantra Sadhana will not be fruitful and succeed, if it is performed half-heatedly without self-confidence and will-power.

Similarly, when the practitioner is doubtful or unsure, while being engaged in a Mantra Sadhana, the chances of success are remote.

Teevra Iccha Shakti is the most important ingredient that ensures success in a Mantra Sadhana, this is a prized quality possessed by most advanced practitioner as it is the driving force that makes the practitioner to strive harder and harder to achieve his desired goal, including gaining Sidhhis over various Sadhanas. Other who are lacking in Iccha Shakti should try their level best to cultivate it, so that it becomes a part of their mental framework.
