| | Diksha sanskar (Initiations) |
 | | Kundalini Jagran Diksha is attained on a photograph of a disciple. | | | Diksha is the foundation of a disciple, fuel of the spiritual life, completeness of the mind, basis of the fusion with Shiva and the path to reach one's destination. | | | Without doubt Diksha is the greatest boon of life and through it one can not just fulfil one's worldly wishes rather one could also attain divinity. |

| | Niscala Devi Dasi/The Question of Diksha |
| | This definition frees the diksha guru from the responsibility of establishing a personal relationship of reciprocated service and enquiry, and from the responsibility to examine the nature of the disciple and to free him from doubt and delusion, for it places the formality of the ceremony as the essence of diksha. | | | Surrender to the diksha guru, who is spiritually qualified to present the parampara message in all its purity, is therefore absolutely necessary for the conditioned soul. | | | Fully equating the diksha guru with a formality giver is the basis of the GBC-endorsed system where gurus initiate and leave disciples to fend for themselves. |

| | Divya Diksha Weekend Retreat |
| | Diksha is the gift the guru gives in charity to transform the negative tendencies in the disciple; it spurts the creation of positive aspects, which spur us to develop our spiritual capacities. | | | The means and types of diksha were enumerated, and then we heard in Baba's own words his account of the day of his Shaktipat initiation from his Guru, as written in Baba's autobiography, Play of Consciousness. | | | The Guru-disciple relationship begins with diksha, in which grace flows from both the Guru and the disciple, who opens oneself to the process of self-transformation with devotion and sincere effort to follow the Guru's instructions. |
