Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Jayant Athavale teaching seekers the process of Personality Defect Removal and Ego Removal, and how to overcome their Personality Defects through Autosuggestions

1. Having a latent feeling of insecurity due to the effects of certain childhood incidents on the mind, and after beginning spiritual practice, being constantly supported and cared for deeply by Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Jayant Athavale

Good and bad incidents occur in everyone’s life. Similarly, at certain times, situations of struggle arose in my life too. The effects of some childhood incidents also remained on my mind. Due to this, I had a latent feeling of insecurity. After beginning spiritual practice under the guidance of Sanatan Sanstha, Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Jayant Athavale always supported me in every situation and helped me recover from them. He always cared for me deeply, and even today, He alone is taking care of me.

2. When feelings of insecurity arise in the mind, counselling the mind through autosuggestions results in the mind becoming stable and carefree

Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale instructed seekers to implement the process of personality defect and ego removal (regularly noting one’s mistakes and giving autosuggestions to the mind in order to reduce one’s personality defects and ego). Whenever thoughts of insecurity arise in my mind, I give it the autosuggestion – ‘So far, Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale alone has taken care of me in every situation, and in the future too, He alone will take care of me. With this faith, I will remain stable and calm’. By counselling the mind through autosuggestions that, ‘Sachchidananda Parabrahman Gurudev is there. Therefore, do not worry’, the mind becomes stable and worriless.

3. Distressing dreams occurring and the benefits obtained from taking autosuggestions

3A. Having bad dreams at night or sensing the touch of negative energies, and experiencing distress the next day : Although during the past one year I did not continuously take this autosuggestion, I still experienced a unique benefit from it. At night, while asleep, I would repeatedly have bad dreams or feel as if there was a touch of negative energies. My vital energy would reduce at night. Consequently, the next day I would feel extremely tired and uneasy throughout the day. I would experience breathlessness or headaches.

3B. Having bad dreams during the past month; however, due to the autosuggestion taken for personality defect removal, the subconscious mind becoming alert on sensing insecurity and beginning to pray to Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale, thereby obtaining protection from distress : Even during the past month, I had such bad dreams on 2 occasions; however, these dreams ended pleasantly. In the dream, I would realise that I was praying to Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale, or I would obtain His darshan in the dream.

I realised that even in the dream, my subconscious mind senses insecurity, becomes alert and begins praying to Sachchidananda Parabrahman (Dr) Athavale, thereby protecting me from distress.

Through this spiritual experience, I understood the importance of taking autosuggestions, and I realised the greatness of Sachchidananda Parabrahman Dr. Athavale, who taught us this science.
