<\/a><\/a>The five types of remembrance<\/span><\/h2>\n

Panca-vidha smarana<\/span><\/p>\n

The five types of remembrance are: smarana (remembrance), dharana (steady remembrance), dhyana (meditation), anusmriti (constant remembrance) and samadhi (total absorption).<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/a>The moment when the stage of Bhava arises<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bhavapana dasara udaya kala<\/span><\/p>\n

The moment the remembrance of one’s svarupa becomes samadhi, one attains the stage of bhava.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/a>One\u2019s state of being at that moment<\/span><\/h2>\n

Se samaye ye avastha haya<\/span><\/p>\n

At that moment when one identifies himself with his siddha-deha, he will completely defeat the influence of the material body.<\/span><\/p>\n

He then resides in Vraja with his own eternal svarupa. In the stage of attaining one’s bhava, one sees the forests of Vraja in their eternal forms.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/a>In Apana-dasa, one attains Svarupa-Siddhi, and at the stage of Vastu-Siddhi, one’s subtle body is uprooted<\/span><\/h2>\n

Apane svarupa-siddhi, vastu-siddhi linga-bhange<\/span><\/p>\n

During apana-dasa, one who is fortunate obtains svarupa-siddhi[1]<\/a>. The moment the subtle body is uprooted, one attains vastu-siddhi, which is the wealth of sampatti-dasa[2]<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/a>The results of Sadhana-Siddhi<\/span><\/h2>\n

Sadhana-siddhira phala<\/span><\/p>\n

Those who have attained sadhana-siddhi are equal to those who are nitya-siddha as both serve Krishna day and night.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

[1]<\/a> Svarupa-siddhi is the stage where a devotee becomes aware of his svarupa, his spiritual identity.<\/span><\/p>\n

[2]<\/a> The stage of full possession.<\/span><\/p>\n
