Shani Shanti - to Ramadas Ji and other learned gurujis

November 25, 2005

om namo näräyaëäya Dear Hency Joseph Ji, The Vedic Mantra for Shanaischara is taken from Taittareeya Yajurveda Aranyaka 4-42 Prashna -Anuvaaka ).It is also given in Taittareeya Yajurveda Brahmana 1-2-1 ( Ashthaka-Prapaathaka-Anuvaaka ). The Moola Mantra has to be chanted like this : SHAM NO DEVIRABHISTHAYAA AAPO BHAVANTU PITAYE SHAMYORABHI SRAVANTU NAH . The actual method is,the Priest or the Purohit will make a Prarthana and then Sankalpa on your name

and Janma Nakshatra and then start chanting the above Mantra by Til oil Tarpana kept in a iron ( Nowadays stainless steel ) vessel.You have to be present on the 1st day of starting of the Mantra.Then onwards he may engage more Brahmins to chant the Mantra and can complete within a week or 14 days or a maximum of 48 days ( 1 Mandala ).Now we have 2 methods based on the person's severity of problems.1st one is after completing 23000 Chanting of Shani Mantra,you have to go to Purohit's house or the temple where he he has started the Mantra Japa,the Til oil which is kept in iron vessel has to be made 3 circambulations ( 3 rounds clockwise ) over your head,then see your face in this oil.After this this oil without keeping it in the ground,take it to Shiva temple and pour it over the big oil lamp kept in front of the temple and then perform Ekadasha Rudrabhisheka in that Shiva temple.This has to take place on a Saturday.2nd method is performing of Shani Shanti Homam after completion

of 23000 Mantra Japa and the method I explained above,the Til oil is used in Homam. Now I will give you a 3rd method which was told by my Guru to me and got instant relief.Here you have to start chant the following Mantra on a Saturday which has Tara Bala based on your Janma Nakshatra : OM SHAUM SHAUM SHAUM SAH. Now the above Mantra has to be chanted by yourself only and 1000 Mantra Japa per day for 19 days.During last week of chanting of the Mantra, you have to buy a Blue Saphire stone of your buying capacity ( it should be clean and not broken ),keep it in your prayer room.Now after completing 19000 Mantra Japa,on the next Saturday after chanting the above Mantra for 108 times with Blue Saphire stone kept in your hand.Then take this stone bare footed to a Vishnu or Krishna temple and give the stone as a Daan to the Priest of the temple

and offer him some Dakshina.here also he has to make Sankalpa on your name and Janma nakshatra and receive the stone and Dakshina and take Prasadam from him.This remedial measure has given me immidiate releif from all the problems after completion of the Mantra Japa after 19 days. I hope the above methods will surely help you. With Shri Hari Vaayu Naama Smarana, Ramadas Rao.hencyjoseph <hencyjoseph wrote: Dear all,The punditji whom I contacted said, he would be reciting the "OM praampreem..." mantra 19000 times, which will last for 41 days.During thistime, he would be keeping blue saphire stone, til, black cloth, blueflowers etc and recite the mantra. Everyday,I have to go to his placeand

be there, while the mantra is being recited. Since, I cannot gofor the prayer for all the 41 days, those days, he has asked my motherto be there. On the final day, he will perform homam and after that Ihave to give blue colour flowers, til , black udad dal , black dressand blue saphire to brahmin. Black/blue colour dress should be givenat the navagraha temple for shani bhagwaan. And feed as many brahmins,according to my capability.I told the punditji about the mantra told by Ramdasji (which should berecited 23000 times). He asked me to bring the mantra tomorrow. As Ido not know Sanskrit, i am not sure, whether I read the mantracorrectly.
