Chhaya Purush Sadhana

 Chhaya Purush Sadhana

Chhaya Purush Sadhana involves invoking and communicating with one's shadow being, believed to be a reflection of one's own self or consciousness. The term "Chhaya" means shadow, and "Purush" refers to a being or entity, typically a male figure.

Benefits:-

1. Self-Realization: Helps in understanding deeper aspects of one's own psyche and personality.
2. Spiritual Growth: Increases spiritual awareness and connection with higher energies.
3. Protection: Provides a sense of protection and guidance from the shadow being.
4. Healing: Can aid in emotional and mental healing by addressing hidden fears and unresolved issues.
5. Intuition: Improves intuition and psychic abilities by aligning with the inner man.

Process:-

1. Preparation: - Choose a quiet and sheltered place where you won't be disturbed. - Cleanse the space with incense or sage to purify the environment. - Wear comfortable, light-colored clothing.

2. Meditation: - Sit in a comfortable position, facing towards East. 

3. Invocation: - Chant specific mantras dedicated to Chhaya Purush, like "Om Chhaya Purushaya Namaha". - Visualize your shadow gradually transforming into a luminous being.

4. Communication: - Mentally communicate with the Chhaya Purush, expressing your intentions and seeking guidance. - Be patient and open to receiving messages or perception.

5. Closure: - Thank the Chhaya Purush for their presence and guidance. - Gradually bring your awareness back to the present.

Auspicious Time:-

New Moon (Amavasya) is Considered highly auspicious for shadow work and sadhanas involving the subconscious mind.
Midnight: The quiet and stillness of midnight enhances the connection with the shadow being.

Precautions:-

1. Mental Preparedness: Ensure you are mentally and emotionally stable before undertaking this sadhana.
2. Environment: Perform the sadhana in a safe and secure environment to avoid any disturbances.
