Guest guest Posted September 22, 2006 Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 Couldn you ,please,explain more on Navana mantra?Which mantra is this (text), meaning, powers, etc? Thanks! - Dhirendra Pal Singh Friday, September 22, 2006 12:12 AM May I suggest a Sadhana for Navratre Hi All, Lately a lot of people have sent emails saying that they love Mother, and do some kind of jap when they get a chance, but they would reach out to her more, and my reply to most of them is A) find a good guru (which includes taking Lord Shiva or Goddess Dura / Kali or what ever form they like as their guru) and B) Do a small sadhana. I would like to elaborate on B). Its like doing something with complete dedication for some period of time(like 9 days here) for all round prosperity in your life. Another good thing is that I can focus and control myself as I keep telling its only for 9 days.. If you fail dont worry.. I will tell you the reason shortly.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 No "Aum" at the beginning of the Navarna mantra? I have a cassette of Shree Maa singing the Navarna to a pretty tune, but she starts the mantra with an "Aum." Of course, that technically makes for TEN syllables (Navarna means "nine syllables"), but the Aum is often not counted. I'll try it without the Aum for this Navaratri, and see how I like it. (Or, see how Shree Chamundeshvari likes it!)

Dear Dhirendra Pal If you write viniyoga, I guess you are talking about the preparatory steps for japa like Rishi Nyasa, Sadanga Nyasa etc? According to my Information a lot of preparation has to done for this mantra to become active, more than for others, every time you do japa (not only for puruscharana) there are 11 elaborate Nyasas but there are more steps in the procedure, involving reciting parts of Saptashati before you can actually start japa. It not only has one rishi, shakti, and bija, but three, because the mantra combines Mahakali Mahasaraswati and Mahalakshmi, and each have their own rishi, shakti, and bija, and Dhyana and on top of that the bijas have to placed differently than is common in other nyasas. I don´t know if a shortcut in the procedure is possible, or it can be left out alltoghether, like in your information, and still the mantra can become alive, leaving out the preparations. Maybe one should consult ones Teacher on that matter. But generally said, if the Nyasas are not done, the mantra is not supposed to become activated and will remain in deep sleep state. > B) It doesnt have any kind of dosh associated with it ( as in case of > Gayatri Mantra there are 3 different dosha associated.

Dear Maha, If you say something, I always give weightage to it. Perhaps my information is wrong. >From what I had read (long time back) that no rish is attributed to its creation, unlike in case of gayatri mantra (where Rishi Vishwamitra has be be rememberd). Never the less, since you have brought it up I shall dig in more. But give or take, I have heard good stories from people (first hand) who did it.. So though might as well share it..

C) Maha Kali, Maha Lakshmi and Maha Saraswati are its devta. First of all thanks a lot for this. It made my understading a bit more clear regarding navarna mantra. But would it be okay to say, that Lord Shiva is not separate from Maha Kali, and so does Lord Vishnu from Maha Lakshmi, and Bhrama from Saraswati, as evident from "Aardhnareshwar" for Shiva and Shakti. Point being, no human rishi is attributed to it. Off course for Devta, its again all three, whom I am anyhow trying to worship. So Its all One... I am interested in learning more about it. Hence Inviting comments from all and evey member.. .. Please tell me more if you want to share.. Thanks and Regards Dp PS: Please do invoke either your Guru, or Lord Shiva or Shakti as you guru, or whoever diety you like for any sadhana. If you can use some sort of "Kavach", it would be great, other you can use the name of "Guru Gorakhnath", Devi Ganga and "Lakshan ji (Brother of Lord Rama) as a simple form of kavach for protection, before starting any jap.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 There is no mantra without anganyasa, karanyasa and viniyogaha is a part of such a step. Further the mantra is called navakshari and not navarna, because it contains 9 words. In fact every mantra has an anga, upanga, prathyinga and guru paduka which most of us do not practice, because the moola mantra is of utmost importance to all of us.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 It is not wrong. Both are correct. Different parts of India have different tradition of pronunciation. Jai Maa!

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Yes. Surya ji is very right. From what I have gathered in South folks say it "Aing" while in North India people say it 'Aim'. What ever you have started it with, keep going. Do not stop, off course unless Mother tells you to.. Also, regarding whethere it is called navarna mantra, please refer to "Mantra Mahanrnava" for clarification.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 Thanks Dp ji, I bought the Saptshati from Gitapress (as mentioned by you), and using it for receiting Saptshati in these Navratras. I dont know much about the other books available other than ChamanLal for Saptshati. But Gita press book is so much more superior in every sense. And gives the detailed explanation of every little thing. I am so much happier. God bless you. Jai Maa Puneet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2006 Report Share Posted September 26, 2006 Dear Puneet ji, I am very glad that you liked it. It gives me great pleasure and satisfaction when I am able to help a seeker, a sadhak, or a bhakta... And off course, blessings are always good to have.. they have helped me a lot in the past.. and I hope to keep collecting them.. :) Indeed, Gita Press is a good publications. My mataji will trust them the most, specially when it comes to Gita, as as she loves it. If you ever get interested in Gita, do read their publication too.. They have broken word by word and translated in Hindi. While it helps in learning Sanskrit, it also kind of helps me in understanding a little bit better. Off course their commentary is un-rivalled too.. Once again, do let me know if I could be of assistance in any other way.. Have a blessed and great navratres Jai Mata Di Dp On 9/25/06, Puneet Gulati <puneetgulati05 > wrote: > > Thanks Dp ji, > > I bought the Saptshati from Gitapress (as mentioned by you), and using it > for receiting Saptshati in these Navratras.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 The "m" or "ng" in this bija is the letter anusvAra, which is described as a 'nasalization' of the preceding sound.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Hi It's the other way round-South folks say it 'Aim,' while in North India people say it "Aing". There is little difference in this bija,but if you take Mahalakshmi's bija "shrIM" - South people pronounce it 'SHREEM' to rhyme with dream,except that the 'M' ending is drawn out when used on its own... shreemmmm.... But in the North this bija is pronounced as 'SHRING' to rhyme with 'ring or thing' leading to a major difference in pronounciation and effect!
