OM Namo Durgaa..

 

Dear All,

 

This is my first post, could somebody please clarify me regarding

Devi Mahatyam/Durga Sapthasati/Chandi Path. I heard that before one

should start reciting Durga Sapthasati, that it is cumpulsory to

chant the Beeja Mantra one Lakh times? Then only we should attain the

Phalitha.

 

Is that true? Because i am planning to start reciting Durga

Sapthasati on the eve of coming Navarathi days.

 

And is there any initiation needed to start this?

I am living in hyderabad, if somebody can guide me to get

initiation if needed.

 

Please please guide me the best way to celebrate this Navarathri.

 

Thanks & Regards,

Sri Krishna Deva Roy.

restrictions.

Friends:

 

Some sampradaayas require that you complete some number of navaakshari before

receiving sapthashatii.

Please refer to your Guru on this issue.

There are as many different opinions on this, as there are Guru Sampradaayams.

 

Thanks and Regards.

The devotee has to get initiated to Navashari mantra before he becomes eligible

to chant it. The Guru would approach him to initiate  if one sincerely pray's to

ambaaji and one should not solicit guru on the net.

Dear Krishna,

 

Namaste.

 

Durga / Chandi Sapthasati is from Markandeya Purana. So, the same can

be read even though you are NOT INITIATED IN NAVAKSHARI MULA MANTRA.

 

THE PROCEDURE IS YOU SHOULD OMIT BOTH PURVA AND UTTARA ANGAS:

 

PURVA ANGA:

KAVACHA, ARGALA, KILAKA, RATRI SUKTA, NAVAKSHARI

 

UTTARA ANGA:

NAVAKSHARI, DEVI SUKTA, RAHASYA TRAYA

 

YOU SHOULD NOT PERFORM THE SAPTHASATI MALAMANTRA NYASA.

 

JUST DO THE PARAYANA OF SAPTHASATI FROM 1ST CHAPTER TILL 13TH CHAPTER

AS A PART OF MARKANDEYA PURANA. DO THE CHANDIKA DHYANA. SINCE, YOU

ARE FROM HYDERABAD, I WOULD SUGGEST YOU TO BUY THE BOOK " DEVI

MAHATMYAM " WHICH IS AVAILABLE IN RAMAKRISHNA MUTT BOOK STALL, LOWER

TANK BUND ROAD, HYDERABAD.

 

YOU CAN DO THE SAPTHASATI PARAYANA WITHOUT ANY APPREHENSIONS PROVIDED

YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE MENTIONED ABOVE.

 

BEST OF LUCK FOR THIS NAVARATRI. SHUBHASYA SHIGRAM.....

 

With regards,

sriram

During a Sahasra Chandi Yagna held in Mumbai before a decade, HH Bharathi Tirtha

Swamyji pontif of Sringeri Mutt in his anugraha bhashanam,prohibited chanting of

DM by the devotees without initiation to Navakshari mantra and

permitted chanting of Devi Sthuti in Chapter 4 and 11 of DM without initiation.

Dear ganapati,

 

Sapthasati, per se, is from Markandeya Purana. The chapter 1 which

starts from " sAvarnih sUrya tanayO….. " till the 13th

chapter " ….sAvarNih bhavitA manuh " form a part of Markandeya

Purana. This can be chanted as a Purana like Devi Bhagavata, Siva

Purana, Bhagavata, Hari Vamsa etc.

 

But when Shadangas as Purva and Uttaranga alongwith Navakshari is

added, Sapthasati becomes MALA MANTRA. These are the words of my

gurunatha and I also remember Shri Harsha Ramamurthyji writing to me

on this issue.

 

It is this MALA MANTRA which is prohibited by Non-initiates.

Otherwise, Sapthasati, per se, as a part of Markandeya Purana, can be

chanted independently.

 

IF THAT IS THE CASE, IS NAVAKSHARI REQUIRED FOR THE PARAYANA OF

MARKANDEYA PURANA?

 

By the way, regarding this, just know I got it confirmed from Shri

Narahari Bhatt, Asthana Srividyopasaka of Sringeri, Shri Navin Holla,

Tarka Acharya and Chandikopasaka in Sringeri, Shri Krishna Bhatt,

Vedic Principal.

 

They said that parayana of Sapthasati, per se, is harmless and No

Yogini Shapa is incurred.

 

By the way, I would personally get the swamigal's words confirmed

when I personally meet Shri Swamigal in Sringeri.

Sriram

In the Mumbai incident , it was found that many sastrigals or prohiths were

chanting DM without Navakshary and Mahasannidhanam in his mercy arranged to

initiate them.

Dear ganapati,

 

So, i understand that to chant the Brahmanda Purana, Lalitopakhyana,

Devi Bhagavata and Markandeya Purana, Panchadasi, Bala, Navakshari

are required? Is that So?

 

By the way, i would tell why swamigal initiated purohitas into

navakshari.

 

Those purohitas did samkalpa with kamya prayoga in the sabha. FOR

PRAYOGAS AND SAPTHASATI PARAYANA WITH GOTRA, NAMA, TITHI, VARA WITH

SAMKALPA AND FOR GIVING TIRTHA PRASADA FOR OTHERS, NAVAKSHARI IS

MANDATORY.

 

This remind me an incident from Andhra Desa. A purohita performed

Sapthasati parayana and gave the tirtha to Chandrasekhara Bharati.

Swamigal asked the purohita whether he had navakshari. He said No.

Immediately swamigal arranged for upadesa. Most of the people only

know this incident. But real background is that the Purohita

performed Kamya Prayoga and hence Swamigal admonished the purohita

and arranged for Navakshari upadesa.

 

So, FOR NISHKAMA PARAYANA OF SAPTHASATI, PER SE, WHICH FORMS THE PART

OF MARKANDEYA PURANA, NAVAKSHARI IS NOT REQUIRED. This is parayana of

Markandeya Purana with the Charitra of Savarni Manu which is a purana

pathana.

Dear Sriram,

 

Atleast what I have heard from avatara purushas, I can quote with authority. As

per Maha Perival's minimum Bala is necessary to chant Lalitha Sahasranama.

Regarding others I do not know.

Dear ganapati,

 

So, i understand that to chant the Brahmanda Purana, Lalitopakhyana,

Devi Bhagavata and Markandeya Purana, Panchadasi, Bala, Navakshari

are required? Is that So?

 

By the way, i would tell why swamigal initiated purohitas into

navakshari.

 

Those purohitas did samkalpa with kamya prayoga in the sabha. FOR

PRAYOGAS AND SAPTHASATI PARAYANA WITH GOTRA, NAMA, TITHI, VARA WITH

SAMKALPA AND FOR GIVING TIRTHA PRASADA FOR OTHERS, NAVAKSHARI IS

MANDATORY.

 

This remind me an incident from Andhra Desa. A purohita performed

Sapthasati parayana and gave the tirtha to Chandrasekhara Bharati.

Swamigal asked the purohita whether he had navakshari. He said No.

Immediately swamigal arranged for upadesa. Most of the people only

know this incident. But real background is that the Purohita

performed Kamya Prayoga and hence Swamigal admonished the purohita

and arranged for Navakshari upadesa.

 

So, FOR NISHKAMA PARAYANA OF SAPTHASATI, PER SE, WHICH FORMS THE PART

OF MARKANDEYA PURANA, NAVAKSHARI IS NOT REQUIRED. This is parayana of

Markandeya Purana with the Charitra of Savarni Manu which is a purana

Dear ganapati,

 

I am talking of Devi Bhagavata, Markandeya Purana, Lalitopakhyana and

other devi related puranas.

 

There are enough discussions on adhikara niryana of LS. Uttarapitika

says that Panchadasi is Mandatory.

 

Bala is the minimum requisite of the Sadhaka to TOUCH THE SRIYANTRA.

Sampradaya prohibits the non-initiates in panchadasi to chant LS and

chakra archana. If he has Bala, he can do the paricharya to the

Upasaka by removing the nirmalya.

Re: it is cumpulsory to chant the Beeja Mantra one Lakh

times?

 

 

Dear ganapati,

 

I am talking of Devi Bhagavata, Markandeya Purana, Lalitopakhyana and

other devi related puranas.

 

There are enough discussions on adhikara niryana of LS. Uttarapitika

says that Panchadasi is Mandatory.

 

Bala is the minimum requisite of the Sadhaka to TOUCH THE SRIYANTRA.

Sampradaya prohibits the non-initiates in panchadasi to chant LS and

chakra archana. If he has Bala, he can do the paricharya to the

Upasaka by removing the nirmalya.

One has no authority to chant Lalitha sahasranama and trisathi without

Panchadasi. Bala is not sufficient.

Friends:

 

I personally have no doubt in my convictions, because I reflected what other

Great people have said.

 

Personally, I believe their word, since their names are more Universally

recognized as authorities.

 

No reflection on any one else's opinions here, and everyone is entitled to their

own course of action, based on information available to them.

 

For the purposes of this forum, let it be as we have discussed before. I will

let this matter rest, and not dig up this issue again.

Its only with the angas and the sankalpam does the purana bhaga becomes a mala

mantra and hence activates the bijas.

Dear Sriram ji

 

as you were that the Bhuvneshwari Bijam is hidden in the first chapter and in so

how can it be just as a purana?

 

 

 

 

Ganapathy ---  Vijaya

" Jai Bhavani "

Dear ganapati,

 

Sapthasati, per se, is from Markandeya Purana. The chapter 1 which

starts from " sAvarnih sUrya tanayO….. " till the 13th

chapter " ….sAvarNih bhavitA manuh " form a part of Markandeya

Purana. This can be chanted as a Purana like Devi Bhagavata, Siva

Purana, Bhagavata, Hari Vamsa etc.

 

But when Shadangas as Purva and Uttaranga alongwith Navakshari is

added, Sapthasati becomes MALA MANTRA. These are the words of my

gurunatha and I also remember Shri Harsha Ramamurthyji writing to me

on this issue.

 

It is this MALA MANTRA which is prohibited by Non-initiates.

Otherwise, Sapthasati, per se, as a part of Markandeya Purana, can be

chanted independently.

 

IF THAT IS THE CASE, IS NAVAKSHARI REQUIRED FOR THE PARAYANA OF

MARKANDEYA PURANA?

 

By the way, regarding this, just know I got it confirmed from Shri

Narahari Bhatt, Asthana Srividyopasaka of Sringeri, Shri Navin Holla,

Tarka Acharya and Chandikopasaka in Sringeri, Shri Krishna Bhatt,

Vedic Principal.

 

They said that parayana of Sapthasati, per se, is harmless and No

Yogini Shapa is incurred.

 

By the way, I would personally get the swamigal's words confirmed

when I personally meet Shri Swamigal in Sringeri.

 

With regards,

Sriram
