material life so that he can lead a Balanced Existence that contributes to the World Order in general and group harmony in particular. More so, it helps each one of us to retrace our roots deep into the Primordial Nature of the Universe and reach the Base or the Ultimate - towards which everyone is incessantly - may be un-consciously - ever striving.
Rev. Babuji always maintained that the present Age of Materialism will come to an end and a new civilisation based on spirituality will spring forth in India. That will be the basis and foundation of world civilisation itself. There is, therefore, an inescapable necessity to organise our spiritual training in such a manner that it maintains its close and over-riding and all-influencing parallellity with the Line of Material education and training. This is the crux of spiritual training under Rev. Babuji’s Raja Yoga. The entire process of training is aimed at the individual and imbibing in him as many of Godly attributes as possible. The Master - in a unique and Divine show of concern to us - says that we must make sure we are proceeding on the right lines; unless internal peace, calmness of mind and simplicity and lightness follow as natural result of our practices, the training is defective and we must introspect ourselves and take remedial measures. He even throws a refreshingly reassuring challenge to the Institution of Spiritual training that if any one - despite sincere and dedicated efforts - does not find any of these qualities one should have no qualms in leaving both - the teacher and the System. Such should be the freedom of spiritual education and training. God is simple and can be achieved by equally simple means. Any training schedule that is arduous with tiring practices mortifying both mind and body are not suitable for common people. This is the sole reason why most of the Grihasthas have been discouraged by harsh and time-consuming spiritual practices, thus totally alienating them from the Divinity Itself; thereby leading to present state of moral and religious degradation. The Master says that the real spiritual training is that which makes our mind disciplined and regulated, restores moderation in senses and faculties and creates calmness and lightness of spirit. All our Raja Yoga Pursuits must, therefore, lend themselves to blend with the normal lives of common-folk who are also essentially engaged in their mundane functions. Such training should help them carry out all their activities in accordance with Divine Principles of moderation, service, sacrifice and fraternity. There comes the relevance of Babuji’s Raja Yoga Training to make every individual a real reflection and a “Unit of Divinity”, so that one can play his part in His Manifestation as ordained with perfection, keeping the goal of life always in view.
The inner cleaning and purification of Chakras (called Lotuses) is the most essential factor in spiritual advancement and marks the beginning of Adhyatmic training. These Chakras are the Centres of Concentrated Energy of
