Kritam me dakshine haste jayo me savya ahitah | Gojid bhuyasamashvajid Dhananjayo hiranyajit | |

-Atharva Veda 7/50/8

"I have self effort in my left hand and victory in the right one. I can win cows, horses money and gold i.e. I am capable of achieving prosperity through focused self effort." How to be successful in our undertakings? This question frequently comes up in every mind, especially in the minds of youths. In childhood every thing looks like a fairyland. Many ambitions spring up in mind and subside but with the advent of youth a strong urge for getting in the chosen field of endeavor becomes strong and insistent. They go on trying to find new avenues of success but only a few actually succeed.
There are many who give up as utter failures and go on lamenting their ill luck for their plight. Many persons believe that success depends on luck. Such persons go on repeating the maxim "Bhagya phalati Sarvda" (Success is always achieved by luck). Persons with such an entrenched attitude of negativity slip into a mode of habitual laziness and indolence. For persons blindly depending on luck success is only a coincidence. It has no scientific procedure without any systematic process. Such indolent persons do not know the real meaning and purport of luck. What we call luck is the result of our past actions. Virtuous actions result in good luck while evil actions fructify as ill luck.
The results of our past actions known as luck can be altered by our present actions. Our ill -luck can be undone by our present virtuous actions and converted into good luck, while our evil actions weaken our good luck and take no time in converting it into bad luck. Only those who know the importance of the great maxim. "We are the makers of our own destiny" move fast towards all round success -material as well as spiritual. There is an effective procedure for success with its constituent factors. These factors are mainly seven, like the seven continents, seven chakras and seven worlds. Energy streams of these seven elements give us the glory of success in life. These are:
1. Sustained hard work along with unshakable self-confidence.
2. Unwavering faith in divine grace.
3. Firm determination to achieve the object of pursuit.
4. Undaunted courage to go on pursuing the goal in spite of setback.
5. Art of warm relationship.
6. Equanimity in the phase of difficulties.
7. Exuberating cheerfulness. When these qualities become part and parcel of our life they gradually bestow on us sevenfold success.
These are: -
1. Material prosperity
2. Impersonal excellence.
3.Emotional maturity.
4. Holistic health.
Sharp penetrating and clear sighted intelligence.
1. Intuitive perception.
2. Spiritual growth. This is a universally well-tried and tested experience. We can also do an experiment. Yugrishi Pandit ShriRam Sharma Acharya helped thousands of persons achieve all-round success in their lives. In Gaytari Parivar there are thousands of parijans who have risen from persons of modest means to become multi-millionaire. Similarly a number of persons of ordinary looking mental caliber have become highly learned scholars. This became possible as a result of particularly concentrated and single pointed individual endeavors magnified manifold by Gurudevs grace.
This is a fact that Gurudev bestowed on them his spiritual powers of penance but it is equally true that these people also changed their life-style and way of thinking. Gurudev used to say that his yogic energy would also be ineffective in the case of those who do not change their life style. Many years back a person approached Gurudev. Economically he was very poor, and also lacked good education. After visiting and trying a number of astrologers, tantriks, and occultists somebody advised him to seek blessing of Gurudev, being endowed with supernatural powers of goddess Gaytari. After giving him a patient hearing Gurudev told him, "Dear child, first have firm faith that Gayatri is source of Veda i.e. Goddess of knowledge. Secondly she is also the Goddess of wisdom.
Hence She blesses only those who are determined to cultivate and awaken knowledge and wisdom in them. If you are willing to do it I will teach you the method of doing it. Once you have knowledge and wisdom, you have the master keys to success. That man expressed his willingness to do his best to put into practice Gurudevs teachings. Then Gurudev said, "Trust that sustained efforts coupled with blessings of God make every impossible goal attainable. To get blessings of God you have to carry on regular Gayatri-Sadhana. As regards the technique, the first requisite is to clearly decide the target and have an intense desire to achieve it. Instead of indulging in vain imaginations one should strengthen his main aim. The second point is to have strong faith.
This faith should be on your own capabilities and in the Deity of your devotion. Third requirement is persevering and balanced effort undaunted by obstacles. You should never lose heart. You should maintain equilibrium in your efforts so that no tension could affect your capacity adversely. Fourth point is to accept and face situations as they arise. By following step-by step path of success you are sure to reach the goals you set for you.
