GuruKul, Gotra, TwiceBorn( Dwija ), Omkar Sadhana

GuruKul, Gotra, TwiceBorn( Dwija ), Omkar Sadhana

GuruKul, Gotra -

QUESTION -
Is it possible that...
Gotra for a person was actually derived from his Guru's name @ Guru-Kul, in ancient times ?

Perhaps, even a Rishi's ( i.e. sage's ) name ?

Say, what about - from the Sapta Rishis ?

Looks like actually so.

Important to note that in Guru Parampara - all the disciples TAKE ON the gotra of the Rishi like Guru, in ancient times.

Was that the way it used to be ? Apparently... may be so.

That means that in a Guru's Ashram ( = Guru-Kul ) all the disciples OR shishyas coming from DIFFERENT walks of life ended up having the SAME Gotra after being initiated into Diksha by the SAMARTH GURU.
And, on leaving the Gurukul i.e. hermitage.

BTW - the word 'KUL' implies- family, extended family; lineage.

The concept of TwiceBorn ( Dwija ) -

Every human being is born to a set of biological parents.

In Sanatana Dharma... at some point in life...
Whilst, when a samarth Guru grants disciple-hood to an individual by giving that individual Diksha - the individual thereon becomes a TwiceBorn ( Dwija ) !

Diksha initiation by a Guru implies a process of re-birth for the individual.

Is it not this way ?

Now... IS IT NOT that ...
A bona-fide TRULY devoted shishya of a Samarth Guru resembles the Guru closely, over a period of 10/ 20/ 30 etc. years of devotion to Guru. Like a mirror image.

Those who have perceptive eyes/ vision can easily make out the Guru of an individual by a mere look at his photo or him/ her.

An instance -
In the book - "An autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramhamsa Yogananda we come across the instance where in Lahiri Mahashaya looks identically like the ageless SadGuru MahaAvtar Baba Ji.

Coming to the point, now...

Last year, I chanced on a great book - "SADHANA KE ANUBHAV", by -

Author : Samarth Guru Param-Sant Chaturbhuj Sahay Ji

Publisher : Ram-Ashram Satsang, Mathura.

Now, between pages (iv) and (v) one chances on the picture of -
Samarth Guru Mahatama Ram-Chandra Ji

And, just before page # 1 - we get to see the picture of Samarth Guru Param-Sant Chaturbhuj Sahay Ji .

Looking at the picture of both these divine men...
and... perhaps liberated men.

One is left with NO doubt that our PM Modi is in fact a REAL disciple of Ram-Ashram Satsang, Mathura. More of a real disciple/ follower of -
Samarth Guru Mahatama Ram-Chandra Ji .

As also of - Samarth Guru Param-Sant Chaturbhuj Sahay Ji .

One is, but, struck with the close resemblance.

...
...
...

The jeevan-mukta who passed off a few months back - could be one of PM Modi's other Gurus. Assuming that PM Modi has had more than one Guru !

Whilst PM Modi's real Guru is certainly - Samarth Guru Mahatama Ram-Chandra Ji / Samarth Guru Param-Sant Chaturbhuj Sahay Ji .

My take. Looking at the close resemblance.

Omkar Sadhna -

In the same book as mentioned above - one gets a very good mention of  "Pranav Upasana" or Omkar Sadhana. Pages : 115-124 .


Book - "SADHANA KE ANUBHAV", by the Author : Samarth Guru Param-Sant Chaturbhuj Sahay Ji

is real worthwhile going thru'.

...

Another book of interest is -

"Omkar Shakti ke Chamatkaar"

Author - Dr ChamanLal Gautam

Publisher : Sanskriti Sansthan, Khwaja Qutub Ved Nagar, Bareli - 243001 ( U.P. )
