Dr Gautam Chatterjee
Swamiji Maharaj proclaimed that for Ram Naam Sadhak, duties are core of life. He never meant spiritualism requires renunciation. Instead he urged the Sadhaks to remain duty-bound towards their family, relations and parivars of Ram Naam Sadhaks. He only prescribed to remember constantly Ram Naam while doing any kind of duties. Again for Ram Naam Sadhak it is important to reduce attachments and expect results from duties. Expectations lead to disappointment and conflict of mind triggers from it resulting in noise of the mind and that destroys Sadhana. Thus in Maun Sadhana one must limit the worldly affairs to his/her basic duties and more energy be devoted to the Sadhana. A duty if one discharges to one’s given ability gives a sense of satisfaction and also a sense of achievement. At this the thought process becomes a melody of mind. From this state turning the mind flow towards inner journey becomes easier. Thus melody called duty if nurtured then Sadhana gets power to propel. And in Maun Sadhana, when we are satisfied even in relative sense, our inner contemplation becomes easy. During Maun however, we should not allow any kind of attachment to tickle in and create chaos in mind. This means a satisfied self facilitates the growth of inner tranquility that ensures a vigorous Sadhana tooling the concept of Silence. Thus, we should say to ourselves “let us do our best within our capacities towards our duty” so that while in antarmukhi state we should not be troubled by pulls and pushes of mortal endeavour.
