Introduction:
So, as I explained in part 1 of this blog, I had read Dr Robert Svoboda's three books on Aghora and his teacher Vimalananda and I didn't know how to go and start looking up all the things mentioned in his books.
Manish ji explained to us that the books themselves don't give definite items of sadhana/ sprituall practice about Aghora or Tantra but if you belonged to India and were already doing a few years of sadhana then you would almost certainly start to know where to look to find the answers to the things written in the books.
He explained using examples to around 10 of us about so many things written in the book. He possessed a large bound book in hand written Sanskrit which he had written with him which he showed to us contained specific methods from various traditions which actually contained the incantations and specific instructions for a few things contained in the books we had read (which he had then deciphered over the years). He showed Marieke a few of these things stressing that none of those things should be tried by any of us because he explained, that "ideally you need to be an Indian and have some medical knowledge, both Western and Indian Medicine to actually successfully understand the idea behind those books. Medical practitioners actually know a lot of things about the body and within it which most other people are unable to understand and because of their exposure to death, they possess the ability to understand it to some extent".
He explained a few easy and basic methods of protection against negative energies and gave a practical demonstration using a mixture he had with him to a few of us stressing that if we really tried this then we should first make the mantra "siddha"/ perfected on particular lunar days and test it prior to the situation we attempted.
Pitris/ Ancestors:
He explained to my my friend Marieke and me about his close experience with the ancestors and why it was so important for us to make sure that the ancestors are satisfied before we attempt any really powerful sadhana. He also was of the opinion that lots of red meat would damage the body eventually and so he would prefer that if we wanted to practice anything spiritual, then we must make sure that we control our diet completely. He also advised to stay away from alcohol ritually for at least 40 days at a time, "the rules must be adhered to strictly before they are deliberately broken", he said.
As I said earlier, I could not have imagined that somebody who claims to be spiritual would give away knowledge from India for free. The hours that we spent with him were really invaluable in terms of what we learnt.
He also taught me worship of Saturn using Hindu methods and these videos are available on his wordpress site here:

He explained our charts using Vedic astrology and how he could do so can be seen by this blog of his on Vedic astrology: artjyotish.wordpress.com
Well, without further delay, here is the second part to that video:
Dr. Robert Svoboda's books on Aghora and Tantra mention the Pitris and and I also found the explanation for that and much useful information on how to get there in Dr Manish Pandit's blog here:
