We are proud that we have been blessed by Sat Gurudevji by giving us Guru Diksha.  At the time of giving Diksha, Sat Gurudevji gives us three mantras:
                      1    Guru Mantra
                      2    Chaitanya Mantra
                      3    Gayatri Mantra

Guru Mantra is to establish our atmik (solely) relation with Sat Gurudevji and Brahmand (universal power).  Chaitanya mantra is to awake our each and every cells of our Brain which are either dead or in sleepy condition.  Gayatri Mantra helps us in lessening our attachments with worldly/materialistic
things.

In short, Sat Gurudev in the beginning itself equips us for walking on the sadhana path.  It is Sat Gurudevji ony who is just like a protection shield in the difficult sadhana path.  When we have faith in Sat Gurudevji nothing wrong can be happened to us in performing any Sadhana given by HIM either in Patrika or personally or thru cassettes.

Sat Gurudevji is always there.  The saying of doing Mahavidya Sadhana without permission may be deadly, is only for those who have not taken Guru Diksha from Sat Gurudevji.  For we Sidhasharam Sadhak Parivar brothers/sisters, we have a privilege of performing any Sadhana without fear provided we take samagri from Gurudham and mantra either from Sat Gurudevji personally or from MTYV Patrika/ Sat Gurudevji's book or from cassetts of Sat Gurudevji.

If one perform the Mahavidya Sadhana without the physical permission from Sat Gurudevji, the result will either be zero or success in sadhana subject to his elevation in sadhnatmak field.  It is also depending upon our Karma or last births also.  There are cases who have performed Mahavidya Sadhnas from Patrika itself and they got the success in one go.  It is for the benefit and for we shishyas only Gurudev is publishing different different sadhnas and also makes provision that we brothers living in far off places can get the sadhna samagri by post.  In another words, it is the Sat Gurudevs advice that we should do sadhanas regularly by reading patrika also as it is not feasible for every one and at all times to attend Shivirs and meet Gurudevji so frequently.

It would be better, if one takes the physical permission from Gurudevji for performing any Sadhana.  Physical Permission means we should take Shaktipaat Diksha also before performing Sadhanas. Otherwise at the time of performing Sadhana we always take mansik permission from Sat Gurudevji assuming that HE is present in front of us and pray for HIS blessing for success in sadhana.  But if we are determined and have will power to perfom sadhana with full capacity/concentration, then  we may get success in one go also.  However, in every case Sat Gurudevji is always with us the time of performing sadhanas.

One thing, for we Gurubhais and Gurusisters, nothing wrong can happen to us in performing any sadhana as Sat Gurudevji is always with us at the time of performing Sadhnas.  We may not get the visible success in one go in doing Mahavidya Sadhana also, but definitely repeating that sadhana will definitely get us the visible difference.  We should take out the fear of any sort from our mind as Sat Gurudevji is always with us.
