Dear Jayant,As you know, a mantra is a combination of bija-(s). Result of chanting a mantra is depend not only on bija-s but also on the pronounciation. Different ways of pronounciation of a particular bija will give different results. Generally, any mantra will fulfill materialistic desires of the practioner. But Maha Shodasi will lead to salvation. It is generally said that Maha Sodasi is moksha karini and Panchadasi is bhoga karini. This is the reason why it is said in sastras that "give money, give life but not Maha Sodasi". So, a devoted practice of Maha sodasi will lead that practioner to stage of losing urge towards food, sleep etc. This is the first step towards salvation.Again it is important to note that "pronounciation" is important.

On what basis a Guru decides to initiate this mantra is best left to his intuitive power. He alone can decide what mantra can be initiated and to whom. A learned Guru will always know his initiation's emergence of consciousness. When as seed cannot be germinated, what is the purpose of getting the seed. Every mantra is like a seed and it is between the initiator and the initiatee to ensure the emergence of consciousness in the latter. Rest of your queries are explained in detail in various articles of this site. You can use the search engine to get these details.

Respected Sir,Obeisance to you.I see one thing in the article that any mantra is secretive and it is not disclosed to others so easily. Further you say that Maha Shodashi or any advanced mantras are not given initially and the Guru will decide whether he is eligible for these advanced mantras.So in this regard can you please let us know on what basis a Guru decides to give initiation on these mantras, moreover in the discussion we see that there are people who are initiating others by charging money for initiating them to advanced mantras, So what is the outcome of such initiations will it be good or bad?Further if we think from a flip side even if the initiation is done for money, if the initiated person is devoted to the service of the GOD and chants the mantra, does it not frutify?Again when we practice these there are multiple obstacles that we face to practice the mantra regularly, we are constantly driven towards pleasures such as food, sleep etc which are detrimental for progress. Hence if one is practicing these techniques will it make the persons mind to overcome such urges.RegardsJayanth

There is a way of reciting mantras. Please read this article and you will know how to recite mantras. Mundane recitation of mantras will not give any benefits. If we chant for Her Grace, we will be conferred both with material and spiritual benefits. Shiva in conversation with Shakti

Thank you ravi sir. This is the sad state of affairs. But I want to know whether chanting shodashi mantra gives any siddhis. I understand your extreme honest approach through your writings but some people choose spiritual path to resolve complex and personal problems of past life karmas and also to attain some siddhis. Does it bestow and resolve complex problems if chanted with sincerity.
