Dear Tripuraghna Ji, what are the benefits of reciting Soundarya Lahiri? Can Lalita Sahasranama, Trishati and Soundarya Lahiri be recited without initiation? Thank you!

Lastly, the Puraścaraṇa: 1200000 (Baḍabāmukhī), 1400000 (Ulkāmukhī), 3000000 (Jātavedamukhī), 1200000 (Jvālāmukhī), 1200000 (Bṛhadbhānumukhī). I know it may sound strenuous but we are not talking about ordinary Mantras, these are Astra Vidyās. After correctly completing the Puraścaraṇa, the deity presiding over the Weapon will introduce herself to the devotee. The devotee must tell the deity to enter his heart and remain to answer the call when needed. That's all.

Namaste Krishna. For the safety of devotees, include the Upasam̐hāra Mantra in the article of each of the Divine Weapons. This Mantra is used to recall the Divine Weapon after it has been thrown or if negative effects arise. ŚRĪ BAGALĀMUKHĪ UPASAM̐HĀRA VIDYĀ: glaum̐ hūm̐ aim̐ hrīm̐ hrīm̐ śrīm̐ kāli kāli mahākāli ehi ehi kālarātri āveśaya āveśaya mahāmohe mahāmohe sphura sphura prasphura prasphura stambhanāstraśamani hum̐ phaṭ svāhā ॥ Thank you for your sincere service.

Thank you! The information provided is sufficient for publishing the mantras as separate articles. We will publish them at the earliest.

You can email the guru that you have tried to reach out to once again and ask for guidance. Please do include details about yourself and what you are interested in practicing and why? We don't offer any courses in teaching any mantras but do offer initiations for reciting mantras. If you are looking at learning Śrīvidyā, I would recommend studying the Śrī Lalita Sahasranāmam thoroughly and understanding the inner meaning of each of Her attributes. You should also consider reading various books associated with this practice to further your knowledge. Lastly, for further guidance, you can also consider joining any courses that teach this practice in detail over several months.

This mantra is only for higher initiates of Śrīvidyā who are serious about the practices associated with the worship of the Divine Mother through both ritualistic and meditative means. You can research further into Śrīvidyā and make a call if that is something that interests you and would like to take a deep dive in. These are life altering mantras and should not be taken lightly. A guru's guidance is considered necessary and you may look for someone who is willing to guide you through the entire process.

Thank you for sharing this knowledge. I happened to see or know about the mantra today. What does this mean to me. Should I follow the path and chant this everyday. I’m not sure what to do. I don’t know about the rules . Please enlighten me and guide me. I do meditate but chanting mantra is not something I have done everyday. Your guidance will help me

Namaste Krishna. Some information about these weapons can be found in the Sām̐khyāyana Tantra. As we are talking about Divine Weapons (Astras), where the main purpose is aggressiveness and destruction, the letter 'ra' (agni/fire) is added in the six variations of the Sthiramāyā Bīja (hlīm̐). Fire is associated with creation, nourishment and destruction and forms the bridge between imprisonment and freedom. These Weapons are infused with all the different properties of fire and can be used for purposes other than destruction. Now I will say Kara and Ṣaḍaṅga Nyāsas. ŚRĪ RAṆASTAMBHINĪ BAḌABĀMUKHĪ: om̐ hlrīm̐ hūm̐ glaum̐ aṅguṣṭhābhyām̐ namaḥ bagalāmukhi tarjanībhyām̐ namaḥ hlrām̐ hlrīm̐ hlrūm̐ sarvaduṣṭānām̐ madhyamābhyām̐ namaḥ vācam̐ mukham̐ padam̐ stam̐bhaya anāmikābhyām̐ namaḥ hlraḥ hlraum̐ hlraim̐ jihvām̐ kīlaya kaniṣṭhikābhyām̐ namaḥ hlrūm̐ hlrīm̐ hlrām̐ buddhim̐ vināśaya glaum̐ hūm̐ hlrīm̐ hum̐ phaṭ karatalakarapṛṣṭhābhyām̐ namaḥ.

ŚRĪ DEVATĀSTAMBHINĪ JĀTAVEDAMUKHĪ: om̐ hlrīm̐ hsaum̐ hlrīm̐ om̐ aṅguṣṭhābhyām̐ namaḥ bagalāmukhi tarjanībhyām̐ namaḥ sarvaduṣṭānām̐ om̐ hlrīm̐ hsaum̐ hlrīm̐ om̐ madhyamābhyām̐ namaḥ vācam̐ mukham̐ stambhaya stambhaya om̐ hlrīm̐ hsaum̐ hlrīm̐ om̐ anāmikābhyām̐ namaḥ jihvām̐ kīlaya om̐ hlrīm̐ hsaum̐ hlrīm̐ om̐ kaniṣṭhikābhyām̐ namaḥ buddhim̐ nāśaya nāśaya om̐ hlrīm̐ hsaum̐ hlrīm̐ om̐ svāhā karatalakarapṛṣṭhābhyām̐ namaḥ.

ŚRĪ PARAVIDYĀSTAMBHINĪ BṚHADBHĀNUMUKHĪ: om̐ hlrām̐ hlrīm̐ hlrūm̐ hlraim̐ hlraum̐ hlraḥ hlrām̐ hlrīm̐ hlrūm̐ hlraim̐ hlraum̐ hlraḥ om̐ aṅguṣṭhābhyām̐ namaḥ bagalāmukhi tarjanībhyām̐ namaḥ 14 sarvaduṣṭānām̐ vācam̐ mukham̐ padam̐ stambhayastambhaya madhyamābhyām̐ namaḥ 14 jihvām̐ kīlaya anāmikābhyām̐ namaḥ 14 buddhim̐ nāśaya kaniṣṭhikābhyām̐ namaḥ 14 svāhā karatalakarapṛṣṭhābhyām̐ namaḥ. The numbers 13 and 14 refer to the number of the first seeds that must be repeated in the other part of the Mantra. It's an abbreviation. For example, the Jvālāmukhī Mantra without abbreviation is: om̐ hlrīm̐ rām̐ rīm̐ rum̐ raim̐ raum̐ prasphura prasphura jvālāmukhi om̐ hlrīm̐ rām̐ rīm̐ rum̐ raim̐ raum̐ prasphura prasphura sarvaduṣṭānām̐ om̐ hlrīm̐ rām̐ rīm̐ rum̐ raim̐ raum̐ prasphura prasphura vācam̐ mukham̐ padam̐ stambhaya stambhaya om̐ hlrīm̐ rām̐ rīm̐ rum̐ raim̐ raum̐ prasphura prasphura jihvām̐ kīlaya kīlaya om̐ hlrīm̐ rām̐ rīm̐ rum̐ raim̐ raum̐ prasphura prasphura buddhim̐ nāśaya nāśaya om̐ hlrīm̐ rām̐ rīm̐ rum̐ raim̐ raum̐ prasphura prasphura svāhā ॥

Dear Tripuraghna, your participation and input is the direct grace of the Divine Mother Herself! We are all extremely grateful and have no words to express our joy and happiness in absorbing this grace and contemplating upon the knowledge received! We will make separate articles for the mantras you posted and publish them. Likewise for the Stotram also. When time permits, can you also please explain the meaning of the bījas rām̐ and its six variations that seem to be prominent in the mantras? We would like to use the same in the articles for each of these mantras. Also, it would be very helpful if you can provide the nyāsas if available. We will also try and source them from the tantras if available, else will publish as is. Once again, thank you very much for everything!
