Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Hi Mahamuni, Mantra must be remain a secret as per all rules, I was even reluctant to write what I had written. It is also my belief that neither Amma nor Karunamayi amma will initiate anyone in the two mantras below. They will direct the seeker to a qualified lineage - this is what I think and I could be wrong.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Namah shivaya Actually Yogaman, I know of one rare case when Amma initiated someone into the Sri Vidya (panchadasakshari). But yes, generally I dont think Amma will initiate people into that, as that requitres a lot of prior preparation and purity. A person I know once asked Amma for that mantra and She refused to give that mantra to him. I know of only one case where Amma has given that mantra- it is a very very powerful mantra ... but on the other hand Amma does encourage and bless people in reading the Saharsranama which I would say is equivalent. As for those who cannot do the Sri vidya mantra or the sri chakra upasana, daily repetition of the Sri Lalitha sahasranama itself is equivalent. ( actually the trisathi- but even that I hear that one of Amma's swamijis asked someone not to repet that without initiation ). If you dont mind, lets have an off line discussion on this. namah shivaya bala childofdevi <childofdevi wrote: Hi Mahamuni, Mantra must be remain a secret as per all rules, I was even reluctant to write what I had written.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Om Amriteshwaryai Namah I also personally saw Amma initiate someone into the panchadasakshari (15 syllable) mantra at San Ramon. The young man, named Kali Das, had been doing many different pujas for quite a while and was going to move to Amritapuri right after Tour, though he had just met Mother. He was living at the Ramakrsna Mission I believe. I don't know what happen to him as I never saw him again. Bala, in all truth, I think it is difficult to say that repeating the Sri Lalitha Sahasranama is equivalent to doing the entire practice/practices/mantras, etc of Sri Vidya worship, including the Trisathi which was given to Agastya after the Stotram and Sahasranama. I guess it depends on your point of view. This is like saying that repeating the Mahishashura Mardini Stotram is equivalent to chanting the entire 700 verses of the Sri Sri Chandi, which I know some claim is the case. Well then why would anyone chant the Sri Sri Chandi? In one sense it is enough just to say "OM". I guess it depends on the sadhak and his/her unique place and disposition. But this is not to say that repeating the 1000 names of Sri Lalitha Devi is not VERY POWERFUL, because it is. Even the 108 names from the puja is VERY POWERFUL, IMHO. But I do know that True and Deep Faith in Amma is enough to take one to the goal.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Yogaman, Only your actual mantra must remain secret, as it my understanding. Telling someone your Istha Deva or type of mantra or number of syllables is not, though there generally is no reason to discuss such things. I was only curious since you brought it up.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 I originally planned on "upgrading" my mantra eventually to the 16- syllable mantra (shodasakshari), keeping this in the back of my mind. I later asked Amma for a different mantra to help me at the time of a problem, and it was then that she asked, "I thought you wanted the 16-syllable mantra?". Like a fool I denied it, and was just happy she initiated me into the one I wanted at the time, which was long like the 16-syllable one, but I have since stopped using it. My experience with the 15 and 16 syllable mantras is that is really is detrimental to a regular person's growth as warned by some: With good concentration, the mantra made everything in my mind completely still, like the sudden stopping of a vibrating guitar string that you didn't realize was playing, and it also saps your energy in the process, needing to sleep it off. You also start to see things as they are, which can interfere with your thoughts and desires, causing mental tension. It's hard to have lust for a pretty woman if your mind makes you feel like she's your sister, mother or yourself (reality bites). Daily chanting of the LS would be nice, but I know few people who can do it because it requires enough energy to maintain your concentration, which only comes after much practicing and adequate rest. I have also heard that the 300 names (trisati) is only for advanced sadhaks because it contains the 15-syllable mantra. tom Ammachi, balakrishnan Shankar <balakrishnan_sh> wrote: > Namah shivaya > > Actually Yogaman, I know of one rare case when Amma initiated someone into the Sri Vidya (panchadasakshari).

The majestic beauty of the trishati is in: 1. the melody 2. the majestic harmony (20 awesome verses for each syllable of the mantra; and each set of 20 verses has the exact same number of syllables. hence 15*20 = 300) 3. the awesome meaning behind each of these verses.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Thanks for the info. It was interesting to hear that. Anyway, there are 15 different kinds of Panchadasakshari's among which are the three most popular -kadi,sadi and hadi. It is possible that rules for initiation of some of these are different.. No doubt it is a supreme blessing to receive it from Devi Herself (i.e. Amma LOL). A senior upasak once told me that after successive initiations of Shodasi, Mahashodasi and Parashodasi (possibly additional ones), one comes back to Bala mantra(traditions may differ), which generally is given at the beginning. So this sadhak was opining that the Bala mantra is the most powerful. Now that sounds like your name Bala :-). Offline is fine if you want to drop a line. -yogaman Ammachi, balakrishnan Shankar <balakrishnan_sh> wrote: > Namah shivaya > > Actually Yogaman, I know of one rare case when Amma initiated someone into the Sri Vidya (panchadasakshari).
