Sign of divine grace: passing unaffected through a tantric akhara ground
The speaker says the first sign that a deity's Kripa is on you is this: go into a tantric akhara ground at its time — Ram Navami, Shivratri, the month of Savan, Ambubachi — where energies are being projected on one another as a show of power, and where sadhaks and ordinary people alike start "playing", crying, shouting or falling ill. If a divine shakti is with you, you cross that ground steady and untouched, not a hair pulled, even if you have never had any direct darshan. He gives his own experience: four companions in a region he calls a second Mayong were hit with tantra and reduced to dysentery and IV drips within two or three hours, while he, then very young and doing only ordinary service of Jagadamba, did not so much as sneeze. He says the shakti protects her child completely.
Why a simple sadhana feels unconnected: Mayong and the spoken transfer of a siddhi
When a participant said he could not connect with the Navnath sadhana as with earlier ones, the speaker says this happened to everyone because the sadhana was so simple — and people today dismiss simple things, though in tantra the actual work is a two-minute affair. He gives Mayong, near Assam, famous for its magicians, where the most tantra-abhichar work is done: anyone who knows will tell you it is that simple and runs entirely through parampara. As in his video on how a siddhi is transferred, traditional vidyas are given so simply that at a fixed time one only has to speak — "from today this thing of mine, such-and-such itar-yoni being, you take it" — read over rice, hand the rice over, and it is done; to call it there is a name and a mantra of barely a few syllables. So the simpler the sadhana, the less engagement it demands — just 21 mantras and a bhog — and the less connected an experienced sadhak feels, while newcomers who had never done sadhana enjoyed the decorating and gained atma-bal, which was needed.
