After going through Krzysztof Stec's book on the practice of Surya namaskar (now published by MLBD with the title "Suryanamaskar: Sun Salutations) I can say this book is indeed the best available in the market currently. The author is a serious practitioner himself, and has collected the best practices relating to suryanamskar, both basic and advanced. This is a good recommendation for which I am grateful. Thanks, @Tripuraghna.

Namaste KuruSandhyasa. Thank you so much for explaining these things clearly. I have been seeking these insights for some time. It is really helpful to understand some fundamental things of these matters. Many thanks to you and to the Divine.

Namaste Nesh. To look at why this happens, we should first look at the nature of activation of mantras. Not every mantra can be treated the same way in this sense. If we speak on the practice of mantras without a guru; Some mantras are self activated, some are partially self activated and some are not self activated at all. If a mantra is self activated, it will be self perfected and it is capable to work for a devoted sadhaka. However, if a self activated mantra is fierce in nature, it is capable of harming the sadhaka's personal life or even physical body in the process. But even if one is a fool, if they survive the process, they come out with some attainment and spiritual progress. If a mantra is not self activated at all then it yields no results. But if a mantra is partially self activated, it can do damage without even having an exit point. Recovery is much more difficult compared to the first two. The only way to know which category a mantra falls into is to have a vast knowledge , or powerful intuition, or guidance from guru influence or a living guru. Next if we go further to speak about Kali by the nature of her effect on any practitioner, she will go to any degree to bring them to the end-point, whether it is a desire they are reaching for or a spiritual attainment or moksha. She will force burning of samskaras even when the sadhaka doesn't want it, she will force changes in the sadhaka's behavior and their life, in order to bring them to the goal. So yes, when they reach the goal, they will be very grateful, but few have the resilience and determination for this. Especially those who resist in any way, this is far worse. This is one such reason why Kali is favored by those who abandon life in fact. If you are able to leave everyone and everything behind, live with this principle with zero hesitation, then you may be guided to moksha or any other goals or attainments so quickly and easily without much worry. It is also said in Sripada Srivallabha Charitamrutam that of the Das Mahavidya, Kali sadhana is used by those who seek hundreds of thousands of years of progress within a very short period of time, but they will burn like hell and one must be capable of enduring this. Of course, if one has initiation, they need not worry about much because their guru's transmission will take care of them. It should be noted as well that certain bijas are much more capable of harm than others. Especially Krim bija, one will dry up from the inside out if practiced uninitiated. There are countless warnings in tantric texts about this bija. Where as bijas such as Śrim Aim Klim etc. are generally considered much safer. As per my knowledge, Hrim bija is generally considered safe but if overheating or burning sensation or mental instability is experienced, then it is suggested to be balanced with Śrim. This is not only for the physical body but for mental balance and to nourish the spirit as well, as a strong spirit can withstand a higher degree of Samskara dahana.

To put it simply, whether you are, as you said burning up prarabdha karma, properly or not it will still burn up. But if you have the strong foundation then it is easy and not difficult. And you need the strong foundation in order to have the sense and intuition to feel what is proper and what is not. This is why some mantras such as Maha Sodasi are supreme, because they are self powered and both nourish and strengthen the sadhaka in so many ways both seen and unseen. Then, any other mantra or action comes so easy and effortless by comparison. And similarly to Bhairavi's grace, a drop becomes an ocean.

Tivra ji, for those who have finished the entire hadi krama you have given us, can we worship ma guhya kali? Can you guide on how to perform mantra japa and the mahasodha nyasa of ma guhya kali?

It is possible, in fact quite more than possible, to invoke guru's presence into a space consistently if you are doing and maintaining the proper ritual for this daily or at least consistently. If your father is usually at home or usually in that room then it will be even more powerful. Do not think or worry however about physical reunification, this is likely to happen automatically in your father's future life with his guru. Though the ritual is very simple and easy to preform, i would need to learn a little more about you before granting the steps. You can email me at kurusandhyasa@gmail.com rest assured so long as your intentions are pure then all will be well.
