Healing the Body, Mind and Soul
The Great Reward of Doing Sadhana
The greatest reward of doing sadhana
is that the person becomes incapable of being defeated. Sadhana
is self-victory, and it is a victory over time and space. Getting up is a victory over time, and doing it is a victory over space. That is what sadhana
is. And when you do sadhana
in the sangat, you enrich yourself in multiple ways. First, the isolation which can hit anybody and make them go totally crazy is defeated. Secondly, when all of you meditate on God, the total effect of your sadhana
becomes multiplied by the number of people participating. Sadhana
is not a matter of advantages and disadvantages. It is simply a means through which you can defeat your miseries, misfortunes, and handicaps. It is a personal thing, which does not relate to anybody except yourself
