as fulfilled via the group to 7 Rishis. Although their bodies were separate, they coexisted together. There was intense unity in their thinking, their programs and all their activities. It is like the 7 elements that unite to form a human body and help in its movement. Today they are shining in the sky as a group and are marching ahead in tandem. Despite being celestial, there is no lesser unity amongst them. They very well understand the value and importance of congregational effort. They have vowed not to let any obstructions come in their efforts.

The help of demi-gods can be understood by seeing the worship dais set up to worship them. In the re-instating of Sarvatobhadra etc. one notes its root activity of close proximity. In one water tumbler (Kalash) itself, all of these demi-gods are invoked and then settled in it. Goddess Durga is considered a symbol of the congregational power of demi-gods.

Congregational tasks are most required in divine endeavours. The Yajna rites are eternal. All principles are established in worship of demi-gods. It is a fact that the entire working machinery of a Yajna has its basis in congregational tasks. A group of Yajna officials, viz. Brahma, Acharya, Ardhavyu, Udgata, Yajmaan, Ritvik etc. conduct Yajnas. The more there are people who offer Yajna materials to the fire, who circumbulate the fire, who work hard, who organize the Yajna, who help in the Yajna etc. greater is the success of the Yajna program. Rajsuya Yajnas have been traditionally conducted f

It is a fact that the atmosphere gets influenced by radiant characters. With their potent energy, radiant men of the high level of radiance, thinking and penance heat up the atmosphere and thus extraordinary transformations have been noted to take place. There is another fact that seems opposite to the above reality. In that an individual gets influenced by the atmosphere. In the stream of time, innumerable people flow away like grass and leaves. Along with a cyclone dust, roof-tops, trees etc. get uprooted. All plants, stems of trees etc. get inclined in the direction of the cyclonic wind. This can only be called the pressure of flow.

Both these are the aspect of Era Transformation. With their intense soul force men of austerities, influence the atmosphere and create a widespread favourable situation for a desirable transformation. The second aspect is that via special activities, heat is created in the atmosphere and because of this all-pervading pressure everything gets transformed with relative ease. Between both these aspects which is primary and which is secondary? It is futile to discuss this. We must accept that both these aspects are very important and both are very useful. Both in fact mutually benefit one another. Era creators must nourish both these aspects.

Only via the medium of austerities can a personality be created that manifests energy for Era Transformation. Even people with material brilliance are seen to attain success in many areas. Of course they are all material object oriented. It has been seen that bodily, intellectual and material wealth execute many important tasks yet they are all worldly in nature. On the basis of wealth, huge buildings, factories etc. are constructed. Help can be taken from other means to augment material comfort. With the help of science, wealth, intellect and hard work, material comforts are on the rise and this will continue in future too. From this standpoint the importance of material comforts and prowess will always be accepted. Despite all this a fact remains that even untold material comforts, cannot induce greatness in our inner psyche / consciousness. Consciousness can only be influenced by consciousness and in order to educate and radiate it, a sacred sentimental basis is most required. Material comforts can only influence the intellect and activate the body.

History is witness to the fact that people with inner greatness have influenced innumerable other people with their inner energy. Great souls like Christ, Buddha, Shankaracharya, Vivekanand, Gandhi etc. moulded and transformed their psyche. In order to rectify contemporary taints, these great men manifested miraculous acts. People always follow in the footsteps of leading great men of the world. Great personalities like Guru Gobind Singh, Rana Pratap etc. were able to create material wealth under very dire situations. This is an example of radiance of soul force that overflows from the psyche of great men. During the manifestation of a New Era, such a lineage of austerities has to be evolved, which will help augment the number of people with great soul force. Only such individuals can induce all others to imbibe greatness. It is easy for materially rich people to educate and incite others, towards selfish attainments but as far as imbibing ideals in one’s daily routine and inspiring people to even die for high ideals is concerned, only those souls full of austerities can execute such a gigantic task. In order to combat era taints the weapon of soul energy is most required. Apart from manifesting energy of penance in our psyche, there is no other way to create intense power, akin to an atom bomb blast and to utilize it for creative purposes. There is no other method apart from creating Bhagirathas, for creative tasks and Dadichis for destructive acts. In order to fulfil these needs a gigantic foundation of Gayatri worship is being set up, that includes ordinary solutions and high leveled austerities.

Knowers of truth realize that in order to create an interest in the subtle atmosphere of the independence movement in this era, what a great role has been played by great Aryans and men of austerities like Yogi Aurobindo. To create an army of sacrificing men, while putting the lives of innumerable people at stake for agitations like non-cooperation movement, Satyagraha and do or die movement, can only be called a miracle. It can only be amazing that those citizens, who in the past were oppressed so savagely, suddenly joined hands to protect the pride of their nation and that to attain their goal they went to great extremes. One fails to find examples elsewhere of so many great souls manifesting at one and the same time. One may find many soldiers and leaders at one and the same time but in those days, Mother India created innumerable great men. Behind their creation is seen the hand of a great magician. Most definitely that creation was the result of known and unknown austerities. Because this source of energy creation has become frail, it is difficult to find radiant men who will studiously work for creation of a great nation. How great can be the contribution of power of penance to evolve public consciousness? May be tomorrow if not today, will it be possible to understand it as a definite fact.

This is one aspect that evolves soul force and through it, purifies the atmosphere. For Era Transformation it is most required that one diligently joins in for such endeavours. For such productivity era creators will have to make diligent effort. The second aspect is to influence the atmosphere by congregational effort and activate ordinary men, to play an extraordinary role in this stormy flow. This aspect can flourish only via congregational effort. A lone individual effort can succeed only in a limited area, measure and time. Whereas in a widespread area, if one wants to make great efforts for a permanent goal, such congregational efforts are required that help fill the subtle world with an overflow of spirituality.

In the ancient times this goal was fulfilled via the group to 7 Rishis. Although their bodies were separate, they coexisted together.

Rajsuya Yajnas have been traditionally conducted for political attainments and Vajpeya Yajnas have been executed for righteous/religious purposes. Vajpeya Yajna includes Ashwamedha, Rajsuya and Gayatri Yajnas. Within this the aim has been to bring in unity in the thinking and efforts made for contemporary goals, by bringing in political leaders and religious leaders on one single platform. In a forest like Naimisharanya etc. gigantic Yajnas via discourses of Suta-Shaunaka etc. were conducted and innumerable Rishi-souls would participate in this righteous endeavour.

The aim of gigantic religious conferences that took place in the Kumbha Mela during sacred festivals too was one. And that was intense cooperation and congregational effort by great men for achieving sacred goals. Amongst other goals in righteous acts like discourses, singing the holy name, festival rites, circumbulation, pilgrimages etc. there is another important goal, which is to make an arrangement wherein piousness becomes congregational and walk in unison in one direction.

In order to combat vile activities during Ravana’s rule, great Rishis had executed congregational spiritual based programs which created subtle divine force. All of them contributed their bodily blood and after enclosing it in a big pot, the pot was buried under the ground. For that Seeta manifested and she played a major role in overcoming vile activities prevailing in society.

Even individual spiritual endeavours are important and there is a need of meditation in solitude for individual purification. But for cosmic widespread goals there is no other solution but congregational worship/meditation. Material goals can be attained via material objects but in order to influence the subtle world, there is a need of spiritual effort. No doubt it takes place at the individual level, yet it has to be raised to a congregational level too.

One can see today what the difference is between individual and collective power. There may be thousands of sticks in a broom but individually they can never sweep even a small room. Thousands of single cloth fibres are of no use. Only if the sticks of a broom join together, can they sweep a building. Only if individual fibres join together, can they make a cloth and thus cover our naked bodies. Flame lamps are generally seen to burn separately always, but one can enjoy the Dipawali Festival of lights only if these flame lamps are aligned close to one another in a decorative way. A valiant soldier can rarely succeed in his endeavour, if he is a lone fighter. Only when many soldiers untie to form an army can they succeed in their task. Great programs of congregational worship/meditation can fulfill the aim of transforming and rectifying the atmosphere. The manifestation of Era Power is most required to make favourable, the atmosphere and purifying the subtle world, so as to transform the era. This goal can only be achieved via well managed, cultured spiritual practices at the congregational level.

While proclaiming the science of worship/meditation, spiritual Rishis have kept in mind that fact that spiritual practices should be carried out at a specific time with specific steps, specific method and with a specific mental level and thus the aim of the subtle world will be fulfilled. Why do they insist that Sandhya-Vandan worship rites be carried out at sunrise and sunset only? The answer is only one that with its aid, a very forceful stream of congregational power can be invoked.

Even if a large number of labourers of different capacities try and lift some heavy burden or try and move a big truck, it is very difficult for them to do so but when in unison they shout aloud “pull hard” and thus concentrate all their might at one point, this focused power gives miraculous results and a huge truck too can be moved.

At every step one notes success as far as congregational acts are concerned. No doubt the uniform footsteps of marching soldiers seem ordinary but its true influence can be seen when they march in unison on a bridge. The firm echo of the sound that emanates from their disciplined marching footsteps is so intense that it can even destroy a bridge.

Great spiritual men have always taken into consideration, the terrific results of congregational worship. The well-known spiritual rites of various religions have been united together in a congregational manner. Muslims are encouraged to do their Namaaz (prayers to God) at definite hours of the day. This discipline is also seen in other religions too.

The arrangement made to worship Gayatri congregationally, at definite times and in a definite manner, can be understood to be an intense creation of Era Power and thus on its basis the invisible atmosphere of the subtle world, can be made more favourable.
