What it does
- A five-minute sitting with a bell.
- A short reading each day, from Thakur’s words or a story from his life, added as each is checked.
- A record of your days: what you sat, what you read, and one habit you are putting right. It stays on your own device; there is no account, and nothing is shared with this website. No leaderboard, no comparison with others.
It also keeps the weekly class in your own time zone, a small library of explainers, and a quiet night check-in. It never shows or teaches the practice given at initiation.
It works in your browser
Sadhana is a web app: open the address, and it runs on your phone, tablet or computer without an app store. Load it online first so the sitting can be saved for offline use.
It can be added to your home screen from the browser, so it opens like an app. Step-by-step guidance for iPhone and Android follows once it has been tested.
Android and iOS apps, later
The web app comes first, and it is the same app on every phone. Native apps for Android and iOS may follow later; nothing is in the stores, and there is nothing to download.
Questions
Is it free?
Everything on this site, the weekly class and the app are free. There is no account to create and no paid tier behind what you see.
Master Within runs on voluntary support. When donations are set up, they will be optional, in any amount or none, with the recipient and the use of the money shown plainly. A donation never changes what anyone can read, join or ask.
If a paid course or a printed book is ever offered, it will say so clearly and sit apart from everything free.
Does it teach initiation?
Initiation, in this tradition, means formally taking Thakur as your teacher. It happens in person, through the Satsang community, not through this website or Master Within, and nothing about it is described here.
You can read, sit, join the class and take part in the community for as long as you like without it. Completing anything here does not make you initiated, and initiation is never a condition of access, nor something that can be bought.
If one day you want to know how to ask, write to us and we will point you to the right people. That is the whole of the process from this side.
Who is it for?
Welcome. Master Within shares the life and teachings of Thakur Anukulchandra so that anyone can read a little, sit a little, and grow with others.
It is for people who carry a real question about their life and would like something steadier to stand on; for people who have heard Thakur’s name and want a clear, honest introduction; and for those who have followed him for years and want to go deeper into the texts.
You do not need to know anything to begin, and you do not need to belong to anything. Start with a five-minute sitting and one short read, or go straight to who Thakur is.
