This is the second book authored by Swami Achyutanand Ji Maharaj. The first book he wrote was “Santmate kī Bātein” (Pearls of Santmat) and this, "Bindu - Nada Dhyān", is his second book. Santmat literature accords a pre-eminent status to "bindu dhyān" (also "Drishti Yoga" or the Yoga of Inner Light) and “nāda dhyān" (Yoga of Inner Sound). Surat Shabda Yoga (also 'nādānusandhāna' or the Yoga of Divine Sound comes after or above the "Mānas Japa (Jap)" (also 'simran', 'sumiran' or mental chanting of a sacred mantra given by the Guru), "Mānas Dhyān” (Mental Visualisation of Deity's or Guru's Form) and "Drishti Yoga" (Yoga of Inner Light). Thus, Surat Shabda Yoga or Nada Dhyān is the highest or superlative meditation in Santmat.
The author has quite diligently presented the above expedients or means in an easy format. The simplicity of the language used in the book makes it pretty easy to comprehend. I believe that the sincere spiritual seeker would benefit greatly from the book.
I express my sincere thanks to the learned author and hope that he would author many more such books in future on the various other topics of Santmat!
