Sorrow is no penance | Science Of Spirituality Blog on Speakingtree.inSorrow is no penance

sorrow is due to suffering 
suffering is due to ignorance of art and science of living 
science of living is knowing laws of nature [not by books, but by direct experienceof the natural law within one's being 
art of living is to live according to laws of nature effortless spontaneous 

tapasya, penance , is to learn how to contact that natural law within


Tapasya, penance, the learning can be by trial with own way 
or easily thru by guru

if method is not known, it ends up with all kinds of discomfort to body mind , finally yielding/or not yielding result 

If methd is known, it is a enjoyable journey , fast easy effective, sure to reach goal 
guru shows the method 

Tapasya of valmiki , --he knew the method, so could overcome all physical limitations , reached goal unscathed 
lesser souls devised their own methods systems, techniques --all to extend the boundaries of swadhrma, to overcome physical limitations --like standing on one leg, walking on fire floating on water --all involving great discomfort --due to being not the correct techniques , thus tapasya is misunderstood as sorrow , glorifying sorrow as tapasya wrongly 

Search for truth, reaching nearer and nearer god,
can never be by suffering, not a suffering, it is a path of increasing joy at every step , 
never it is sorrow and when we reach nearest to truth, nearest god, the joy becomes more and more intense, and at the end it turns into bliss overwhelming 


This needs to be properly understood , to know what tapasya is / can be .
if guru guidance not there, one gets in to the loop of all surmises assumptions ending in number of unnecessary wrong moves

To lead others to enlightenment , one must do sufficient sadhana and get to the real high level, god awakened inside intensely so that understanding and consequent expression of truth become authentic, and hence poweful 

If the leader lacks the true knowledge he can only promote blind following by semi ignorant .
damaging the purpose for which one leads the masses .
thus time is lost due to half baked leadership, with no possibility of ever reaching the goal ,
