By Raghuvir – in english:
Mahendra Maharaj very appropriate describes Babaji’s mode of teaching when he cites the
Dhakshinamurthy Stotra wherein is described that the Sadguru always clears all the
doubts of the student in silence itself. Babaji never gives discourses; neither does He
encourage nor participate in discussions. Rarely, however, He does orally explain and
clear the doubts of his devotees through mental transmissions. For those who have not
been able to rise to such a spiritual level, He would create circumstances in their day-today
life in such a way that the devotee obtains himself the answers and solutions for the various doubts.
Instantly, he receives the answer either telepathically or through circumstances created for him by Babaji.
Thus Babaji has been showing to all the vast power of the mind.
The fundamental principle which Babaji has been preaching is that for obtaining the bliss
and happiness, it is very essential to control the mind. Mental power is the supreme
power in creation. Even the creation was started by the mental power of Sadashiva only.
The Sankhya Yogis attribute this mind power to prakriti which is equivalent to the Shakti
of Shivites. As such, one who has complete control over the mind will be able to control
the entire creation itself. Such a person is the Supreme God who is known by various
names as Sadashiva, Purush, Adi Brahma, etc. The Yogis and Siddhas have only partial
control over their minds. The training required to develop control over the mind has been
named by Babaji as Manasa Yoga
