Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Kindly see below experience of a sadhak of Bagalamukhi Mantra from the International Siddhashram Sadhak Parivar discussion list. Jai Gurudev Bagalamukhi - Dhoomavati Beej mantra: Hleem Dhoom Hleem This mantra is extremely powerful. It's quick and destroys all you adversaries in a blink of an eye. Be it powerty, misfortune, ailment, curse or permanant failure; nothing can withstand the sheer force of this mantra. For those who are not aware, Bagalamukhi and Dhoomavati are the most fierce and feared of the ten Mahavidyas (Of course, Chhinnamasta Mahavidya is also there). Those who have not taken Guru Diksha MUST stay away from this mantra. Even a slight mistake can result in immediate death. I learnt this combo during the Bhopal shivir in November '97. Although, it is not allowed, I would like to share an experience related to this mantra. On the first day of Nov '97 Bhopal shivir, something prompted me to fast. This was difficult for me as I was not feeling well that day. I had gone there to meet Bade Guruji, Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali; but, due to some reason, Kailash Guruji (Bade Guruji's second son) came in his place. Maybe, I was not happy with this. My condition kept worsening and till evening, fever got over me. The shivir was in a ground divided into a big tent, where guruji and sadhaks were sitting, and some sheds along with the boundaries of the ground where sadhaks were supposed to sleep in the night. I preferred to stay in a hotel. It was a two day shivir and that day's session was to end at 10 PM; but, because of my fever, I decided to leave at 7 PM. As I was packing my things, Kailash Guruji announced that he would grant Bagalamukhi Mahavidya Diksha for a very low fee. I wanted to take that diksha so I decided to stay. Perhaps, I was skeptic about the money thing. Well, though I could barely walk, I reached the payment counter. I wanted to hurry up, but no one was there. I stayed there for a while and then, while thinking this wasn't my day, as I turned to return, I heard a strange, heavy voice, " What do you want? " . It was a very fat, black and somewhat weird guy. " Bagalamukhi Diksha " , I replied. " Hummm... " , he grunted and while chewing his tobacco, wrote something on a piece of paper and handed it over to me. The word " Bagalamukhi " was written on it along with a small signature. When I gave him the money, he said, " Keep it, you'll need it. " and walked away. " Bagalamukhi Diksha for free??? " , I was surprised, " That's cool. " Well, not really. My temperature was still rising. I re-entered the main tent, walked straight to Shrivastavji and gave him the paper to ask him how to proceed. Guruji was not there. He starred the paper for while and looked at me in a surprised manner. " What? " , I thought, " Has the guy made a fool of me? " Anyway, Shrivastavji gave me this mantra and asked me to chant it till Guruji returns. I returned to my place and started chanting the mantra. In about 10 minutes, the whole scene changed suddenly. I was in a crematory on the banks of a river sitting over a chita surrounded by giant sized trees. I got frightened and opened my eyes. " Hallucinations! !! " Anyway, I started again and yes, the scene, too, returned. This time lightening struck the chita and it started burning wildly. " Help " , as I was about to stop again, something inside me ordered me to continue. With every mantra, the flames grew taller and bigger; the temparature was beyond reason and I felt like roasted meat. No matter how this may sound, I was enjoying it. There was heat and there was pleasure. Being cooked alive wasn't that bad, after all. After a while, the scene flipped back to normal, Guruji had returned, the queue moved on and now, it was my turn. I handed over the paper to Shastriji who was standing next to Guruji making him surprised and stood face-to-face with Kailash Guruji. " Guruji, I'm taller. " , I thought. Kailash Guruji placed his left hand on my right shoulder, fingers of his right hand on my head and pressed his right thumb against my forehead and " Whooosh... " , something like molten iron entered my forehead. I was supposed to concentrate on his eyes. I tried to do just that but, instead, found two fireballs there and no prizes for guessing that, we were back in the crematory standing over the blazing chita. This time the heat was much, much higher and the guy from the payment counter was also there violently throwing something into the chita. " Who is this guy? " and the next moment I saw him getting morphed into Bade Guruji. " Guruji!!! Oh, I missed you so much. " Bade Guruji appeared dark and redish and when I turned to Kailash Guruji, who was still in the process of granting Diksha, I was shocked to find him much taller, bigger, muscular, darker and redder. Next, something emerged from his forehead and entered mine with a huge blast and we were back to normal. I was amazed. Kailash Guruji was tapping my head and asking me to leave as he was done. I tried to touch his feet but couldn't as it was not allowed at that time. I came down the stage and realized that along with my doubts, my fever was gone. I was feeling healthier, stronger, taller and very hungry. I was feeling like the most powerful man in the universe. I didn't want to return, but I did reliving those moments again and again with wildly growing hunger. I entered a veg restaurent and ate and ate and ate till the manager stopped me and said they can't serve anymore. I had eaten 36 big butter nans, 7 big plates of fried rice and a lot of dal makhani and vegetable along with 19 glasses of lassi. Normally, I couldn't have eaten more than 4 nans. The bill was exactly the same amount which I was supposed to pay for the Bagalamukhi Diksha. Remember, I was told I would need that money. I returned to my hotel room and my luckiest day ended with a sound sleep. The next day, I was the most energetic and helping person in the shivir. That's why my blood boils when some damn person insults my Guruji and I couldn't even have the luxury of tearing that person into billions of pieces. May Guruji bless us all.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Normally I am a very genial fellow but when it comes to mantras and sadhana and mistakes that can have repercussions, I am very very straight and harsh. Some of my friends think over harsh. So I was keeping quiet. When I saw the latest posts on bagala, dhoomavati and all I just could not resist.*smile* Mantras are NOT to be picked up from the net. Especially mantras that can give siddhi easily. Because easier the possibility of siddhi, greater the possibility of harm from misuse. Please do find a siddha guru to start these. Before that pray hard with simple stotras and upasanas so that Devi blesses you with a siddha Guru. Another thing about these sadhanas is the truth that people are attracted to these because of real or perceived enemy activity, persecution etc. Please do understand that the moment one starts these sadhanas, the heavens will not open with thunder and lightning and the enemy WILL NOT be struck by lightning on the derriere. Such things are parts of stories and TV serials where Devi jumps up and goes into action the moment the actor starts a song. These TV Serials and stories cause so much harm because it just is not the truth. Long and arduous sadhana installs the diety inside oneself or rather awakens the divinity latent in all of us. But by the time it is awakened, the purpose with which one started the upasana may no longer exist. The websites like siddhashram, issp list are all places where a lot of misguidance takes place. (My opinion) That’s my 2 cents. I hope I have not offended anyone. --- On Tue, 7/14/09, msbauju <msbauju wrote: msbauju <msbauju Re: Bagalamukhi Sadhana Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 3:18 AM Nope; not a vending machine.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 What can i say!! The NETGURU (not guru on net but net as guru)seems to be all powerful. So I am starting reciting the netgurumantra Nettaaya gurave namaH. i am sure reciting 108 times daily(I am starting it NOW) should fetch me my heart's desire immediatly. I am asking the netguru what mantra I must recite to get my heart's desire that must remain unarticulated? I hope I get a vision where I will be told what to do. Maybe Srimali's son's siddhis will open only when the money is in the bank???? jai gurudev dear friend, what u say is somewhat true. a friend of mine took mantra of mother peetambara baglamukhi from net and did mantras. fortunetely he got good results. there was a case of cheque bouncing and the oppsing party was not willing to give back amt,etc....despite a court case being slapped against him.the struggle was over 1-2 yrs old. finally this friend took mantra from net and started it and in 3 months the case was over and he got his money back. sio mother is surely most loving kind and helpful to us all. om shakti gopal On 7/14/09, sankara menon <kochu1tz wrote: > > > > Normally I am a very genial fellow but when it comes to mantras and sadhana > and mistakes that can have repercussions, I am very very straight and harsh. > > Some of my friends think over harsh.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 My dear sriram Dogre!! I am not saying there cannot be experiences. But you are quoting someone else. Do you know the person who allegedly wrote this? Are you sure it is not some paid crony who sits and writes all these as ad copy for the siddhashram people? I have a simple straightforward question. This siddhashram seems to to be full of siddhas. I have a simple desire, if one of the so called siddhas of siddhashram can get me that result, I will pay whatever he asks. Do not ask me to stand upside down in ice cold water naked and chant this mantra or that. Do not ask me to pay upfront. Those are the only conditions. This guy was talking of Bagala bIja as hleem. is THAT the Bagala bIja? I have learnt something else as Bagala bIja. I am all the more so convinced that all these stories are hogwash because the mantras as stated in the siddhashram website are neither sanskrit nor hindi but sanskrit that is hindiised. It is said Mantro shabda pradhana. This applies all the more for bIja mantras. So reciting nonsense that RESEMBLE mantras will be of no effect. I await a comment. , Sriram Dongre <sriramadongre wrote: > > Kindly see below experience of a sadhak of Bagalamukhi Mantra from the International Siddhashram Sadhak Parivar discussion list. > > Jai Gurudev > > Bagalamukhi - Dhoomavati Beej mantra: Hleem Dhoom Hleem > > This mantra is extremely powerful.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Maybe as a siddha you can help me? (I am no siddha so i need help). I have a few enemies in my place of work. Would you kindly destroy them. Need not be lightning. Any other means will do. Kochu jai gurudev dear friends, as per my humble experiences,mother peetambara is siddhvidya. i mean mother baglamukhi is siddhvidya.she is the one who eliminates all curces etc,planatery effects etc. i have taken mantra deekasha from gurudev narayandutt shrimaliji in 1986. and yes the mantra is very powerful. i have used hreem and hrleem and both give good results. but as i said,even people who had not taken deeksha have god divine good results. so i can only say motehr is truth and she loves us all as her divine children. om shakti gopal On 7/14/09, kochu1tz <kochu1tz wrote: > > > > > My dear sriram Dogre!! > > I am not saying there cannot be experiences.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Dear Aditya: thank you for the support. As I said i have too many enemies in my place of work So, if you agree I will start Brahmastra japa from to-day after reciting netgurave namaH 108 times. Then Aditya kumarajhaayai namaH. 36 times; then the Brahmastra mantar 1008 times. i expect the near by volcano(that has not erupted for 10,000 years will come alive; spew lava in a straight line to my office(at its base) and go to the rooms of my enemy and just incinerate them. I am very very excited. I am waiting to see these events. I will be bringing all my photography equipment to my office so that i can picture the event for the posterity. Thank You. Kochu When I called this a " vending machine " it was for a reason. As already pointed out by Sankara and Kochu the Mantras are not to be given away in " e-diksha " ...and that too wrong ones. If you are confident that you are a competent Guru only then should you try to impart anything to the others....Thats my suggestion. regards Aditya On Tue, Jul 14, 2009 at 9:29 AM, gopal narayan <gopalnarayan123wrote: > What can i say!!

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Dear Kochu ji & All,  I'm sorry if i sound naive and childlike, but maybe it's just the Vaishnava in me. But please tell why would someone want to do these sadhanas anyway, when there are many more sattvik sadhanas to do wherein results will be 10 x more, less temporal, and less fraught with danger? Why to do a sadhana to destroy enemies, make money, etc., etc., when we all have this ego that we are trying to burn down? Are we not aware that once the ego is burned down, all else will assume a lesser importance? Why not do sadhana of Gayatri, Lalitha Parameshwari, Lakshmi Devi, or even Tulasi Devi? Or sadhana of deities who will never pander to the lower base instincts of greed, death and destruction of enemies? Actually, I really don't believe that those deities such as Dhoomavati & Bagalamukhi really " pander " as such to the base instincts; but I believe that those deities have more of the inherent power to allow people who haven't necessarily attained spiritually, to misuse their power or siddhi which can be attained relatively easily compared to some of the aforementioned. Attaining their power i guess it can be said thusly: " make it, or mar it " ; the keys to destruction or salvation is verily in your hands. --- On Tue, 7/14/09, sankara menon <kochu1tz wrote: sankara menon <kochu1tz Re: Re: Bagalamukhi Sadhana Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 3:22 AM Normally I am a very genial fellow but when it comes to mantras and sadhana and mistakes that can have repercussions, I am very very straight and harsh. Some of my friends think over harsh. So I was keeping quiet. When I saw the latest posts on bagala, dhoomavati and all I just could not resist.*smile* Mantras are NOT to be picked up from the net. Especially mantras that can give siddhi easily. Because easier the possibility of siddhi, greater the possibility of harm from misuse. Please do find a siddha guru to start these. Before that pray hard with simple stotras and upasanas so that Devi blesses you with a siddha Guru. Another thing about these sadhanas is the truth that people are attracted to these because of real or perceived enemy activity, persecution etc. Please do understand that the moment one starts these sadhanas, the heavens will not open with thunder and lightning and the enemy WILL NOT be struck by lightning on the derriere. Such things are parts of stories and TV serials where Devi jumps up and goes into action the moment the actor starts a song. These TV Serials and stories cause so much harm because it just is not the truth. Long and arduous sadhana installs the diety inside oneself or rather awakens the divinity latent in all of us. But by the time it is awakened, the purpose with which one started the upasana may no longer exist. The websites like siddhashram, issp list are all places where a lot of misguidance takes place. (My opinion) That’s my 2 cents. I hope I have not offended anyone. --- On Tue, 7/14/09, msbauju <msbauju > wrote: msbauju <msbauju > Re: Bagalamukhi Sadhana Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 3:18 AM Nope; not a vending machine.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 Namaste Janardana Dasa: I have for some time practiced the Gayatri Sadhana, Lakshmi Sadhana, and the Lalita Sadhana. The reason I began this practice for Bagalamukhi was not to strike down some enemy, but rather to stop the negative energies within myself. If you read, Tantric Yoga, and some other books previously mentioned, you will find that the so called negativity is superficial. The ignorant see the outer layer only. The wise see the inner layer as well. I have found ironically that as I practice the Bagalamukhi mantra, the negative tendencies within myself seem to stop or halt. The negativity comes from the constant inner chatter going on, and when that ceases we begin to see other things that we missed before. Psychologically speaking, much of out mental and emotional problems come from what we constantly say to ourselves and others. We call on Bagalamukhi to halt this type of talk. When it halts and silence ensues, we find peace. Calling on a divine being from the point of ignorance and asking for someone to be struck dead is silly. Devi being the disciplinarian will simply destroy the ignorance that started the Sadhana and open our minds to a new way of seeing the so-called enemy.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 point well taken. But, I promise you that if we are steadfast @ Sadhana of Lalitha Parameshwari or Gayatri, the heart will become as soft as butter and all the negative vasanas will disappear. Thing is, we must be steadfast and can't expect it to occur overnight. No sadhana will root out the negative vasanas of the mind overnight without hard practice which many don't want to do. --- On Tue, 7/14/09, Shankari Kali <shankari_kali wrote: Shankari Kali <shankari_kali Re: Re: Bagalamukhi Sadhana Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 11:12 AM Namaste Janardana Dasa: I have for some time practiced the Gayatri Sadhana, Lakshmi Sadhana, and the Lalita Sadhana.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 14, 2009 My dear shankari & Janardana dasa: Both of you have put the issue succinently. On what JD said, even those so called satwika mantras in the hands of an immature person can be dangerous and destryuctive. That is why i keep emphasising the need for a proper siddha guru who will know how to channalise a student's energy rightly. hence the need for caution. As for what Shankari said I will quote her 'The reason I began this practice for Bagalamukhi was not to strike down some enemy, but rather to stop the negative energies within myself' this makes it NOT kamya sadhana but just being prayerful and seeking blessings - a greater sadhana than the kamya sadhanas for getting court cases settled and killing enemies (if at all these things are possible). When sadhana is nishkama as in teh case of shankari, the devi manifests in no time and grants all that one NEEDS. When something specific is asked, the desire MAYBE granted, but along with a lot of other BAGGAGE. That is the reason why kamya sadhana is frowned upon. I commend Shankari's statements as statements of the highest order. --- On Tue, 7/14/09, Shankari Kali <shankari_kali wrote: Shankari Kali <shankari_kali Re: Re: Bagalamukhi Sadhana Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 8:42 PM Namaste Janardana Dasa: I have for some time practiced the Gayatri Sadhana, Lakshmi Sadhana, and the Lalita Sadhana.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 15, 2009 Namaste Dear Shankari, I just returned from sadhana with my teacher to read this long thread of e-mails on Bagalamukhi. I have done her sadhana and here is what I can share and what I understand from my experience and the knowledge imparted to me by my teacher. My teacher stressed her thoughts on all the " veneer " of Bagalamukhi (winning court cases, paralyzing your enemy, etc.) as just being a veneer. Like how we associate Lakshmi with money instead of the wisdom of what we value. Bagalamukhi is the stillpoint where dualities are transcended. Where we are participating fully in the world of forms but our minds remain in emptiness. She has the power to reign in the mind and she confronts us where we self-deceive. Not dissolve or break down, but confronts. I found this to be very true. It was the most difficult, yet the most beautiful sadhana I have done. She brought everything in my life that was based on self-deception to a grinding halt. Ouch! The whole time she was so stunning and radiant that she would beckon me back into the sadhana when I felt I couldnt do it anymore. She has remained in my koshas for quite some time after the sadhana was formally complete. There is soooooo much more to her than we see on the internet. Perhaps this is part of her work with deception. I was taught and then experienced that Bagala cuts through confusion, yet can also increase confusion. I don't believe I could have done this sadhana without my teacher. Other sadhanas I have done did not require so much support. But this one did and I understand that to be usually true of Bagalamukhi sadhana. However, I also received the transmission which could have also made the sadhana somewhat more intense. My best to you in your journey with her, it is quite an amazing experience.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 15, 2009 Namaste Kulasundari Devi and Group: I agree that too much focus is on the Siddhi when it probably is more the attainment of wisdom.

My best to you in your journey with her, it is quite an amazing experience. Om Shanti, Nita Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
