BHAV SAMADHI TRAINING HOMEPLAY GUIDELINES (At least 200 Pages)
Write down all the experiences in your life that were elevating to your soul as well as the painful ones.
Also write about your aspirations, successes and failures in the area of your family, friendship, career, health, sex, learning, travel, social work, and your relationships with society etc.
Write especially about the dramas that you play in your life pretending to be something other than who you really are in the above areas of life. Truth is more important than whether you appear good or bad through this writing. Write everything that has happened in your experience as it is without being concerned about morality or immorality, legality or illegality or what people may think about it.
Do not be concerned about the rights or wrongs of what happened. Write down what happened in your experience as it is without adding any justifications or trying to explain how it should have been etc. Examine your personal experience in the situation and do not blame or pass the buck on others. The truth of your personal experience in the situation is more important and it is not about blaming others for what happened to you. Also write your intentions/purpose/motive in each incident or happening.
Do not use names of other people and identify them and make them appear in bad light. Instead you can use persons x, y, z etc.
Take at least 20 hours to write about your life covering at least 200 pages.
Importance of Homeplay:
The course you are going to undertake is a serious venture into the truth about life. This ceremony is traditionally known as Satyanarayan Vratha or experiencing God through truth. The very process of writing the homeplay is the essential preparation to enter the temple of God or sterilizing yourself before you enter the operation theatre.
