Hi sir, in this procedure when we move into step V and start reciting one's mantra, do we still need to go through the viniyoga, nyasams as we usually do? Thank you.

Hi sir, can the Mahaganapati moola mantra be one's lifelong mantra or one needs to move towards a shakti/devi mantra eventually? Thank you.

Namaste Krishna ji Can you please provide the Dhumavati Khadagmala and it's translation as you said. I can't find the same in this site. I have been a devotee...well can't call myself a devotee in real sense as once a devotee you want nothing....but nonetheless I have been trying to fathom into the smoke screen & get grace of Ma Dhumavati knowledge. She's like the advait knowledge of Kashmir shaivism indicating the real knowledge of hridaya bija. Thank you and Ravi ji for providing authentic knowledge to people like us.

Sir this mantra specially for shapa vimochana. I have been initiated to Pratyangira moola mantra and I'm reciting it regularly. Can I recite this mantra without initiation

"śodhayāmi" - to purify and consecrate is the correct word. Thank you for pointing out the errors. These are fixed now.

Yes it should be. Think of it as something that helps induce more efficacy to the mantra.

As it is said, you verily become the deity whom you worship. Devi Bala's nature is just as you mentioned and she is considered the stepping stone in Shakta sadhana. Check the Bala mantra japa article where our learned friend Tivraji has talked extensively about her; the former has even provided an advanced krama for enhancing the results of Bala Devi's japa. If within youself, you find a pure and innocent soul who wants to deal with everyone whether enemy or friend purely with love, Bala Devi's sadhana is very suitable. If you feel her qualities resonate with your own, get initiated and practice her mantra sincerely without asking for anything; For those who perform sadhana without expecting anything from the Deity except their grace, the Deity shall give the biggest fruit of all- they shall be along your side during your lifetime and even beyond continue to guide you till you reach liberation. If you are approaching Bala Devi to help you go near to Mother Lalita she will help; However, she will only reveal her entire self and true potential to her devotees who dedicate their life and devotion solely to her ; these are 2 very different situations and is true in the case of any Deity. Decide well what you want and proceed. Personally, I have never considered the different forms of Shakti as different from each other; For me, Divine Mother's multitude forms are just rays of light of different colours but of the same source.

Namaste. what, if any, is the difference between śodayāmi and śodhayāmi?
