Prayer to Amma

[Guest guest]

sarva-maMgalamaaMgalyao iSavao savaa-qa-saaiQako .

SaraNyao ~yambako gaaOir naarayaiNa namaao|stu to ..

Sarva mangala mangalye shive sarvartha sadhike, sharanye trayambake gauri,

Narayani namostute.

 

I salute the three-eyed Divine Mother Narayani, the good of all that is good,

the bringer of auspiciousness and the fulfiller of all the spiritual and

material desires of Her devotees.

* * * * *

 

Another invocation of the Divine Mother, asking for Her grace:

 

doiva p`pnnaait-hro p`saId p`saId maatja-gatao|iKlasya .

p`saId ivaXvaoXvair paih ivaXvaM %vamaIXvarI doiva caracarsya ..

Devi prapannarti hare prasida, prasida matar jagato'khilasya, prasida

vishveshvari pahi vishvam, twam ishvari devi characharasya.

 

O Mother, Thou art the destroyer of the troubles of Thy suppliants, Thou art the

mother of the universe. Let Thy mercy be upon all. O Mother, Thou art the

mistress of the universe. Thou art the one ruler of all that is moving and

non-moving. Do Thou protect the universe and shower Thy mercy on all.

* * * * *

 

The ya devi sarvabhuteshu slokas glorify the all-pervading nature of the Divine

Mother, who is present in every being, in every action, and even in every

emotion:

 

yaa dovaI sava-BaUtoYau ivaYNaumaayaoit Saibdta .

namastsyaO namastsyaO namastsyaO namaao nama: ..

Ya devi sarvabhuteshu vishnumayeti shabdita, namastasyai, namastasyai,

namastasyai, namo namah.

 

Salutations again and again to the Devi who in all beings is called Vishnumaya

(the Maya of Lord Vishnu).

 

yaa dovaI saba-BaUtoYau caotnao%yaiBaQaIyato .

namastsyaO namastsyaO namastsyaO namaao nama: ..

Ya devi sarvabhuteshu chetanetyabhidhiyate, namastasyai, namastasyai,

namastasyai namo manah.

 

Salutations again and again to the Devi who abides in all beings as

consciousness.

 

yaa dovaI sava-BaUtoYau bauiw$poNa saMisqata .

namastsyaO namastsyaO namastsyaO namaao nama: ..

Ya devi sarvabhuteshu buddhirupena samsthita, namastasyai, namastasyai,

namastasyai, namo namah.

 

Salutations again and again to the Devi who abides in all beings in the form of

intelligence.

If you have Shusha font (and if this were an HTML

message) the above word salad would display in

devanagari characters.

I thought this looked familiar! It was copied and

pasted from my Sanskrit page - and should have been

acknowledged as such.

Yeah, I know it's a dumb url. But I'm too cheap to

pay for a keval.com domain name
