Quest for fine arts will not disturb one's spiritual journey. In fact, they will increase our spiritual quest.

Both the 114 and 118 mantras are almost identical. The word 'kuru' is to 'act upon'. It is reiterated to request upon the Divine Mother Śrī Vārāhi to immediately act upon our concerns. Both mantras are meant for Śrī Vidya devotees to overcome hurdles in their life. Once all of these are silenced, the Mahāṣoḍaśī mantra is granted, at the discretion of the guru.

Thank for these precious instructions to worship Varahi! Can you please explain the difference between the 114 lettered Sri MahaVarahi Mantra and the 118 lettered Sri MahaVarahi Mantra? I understand that there is an additional "kuru kuru" in the 118 lettered mantra, but what is the significance? Jai Varahi Maa!

I have removed the reference to Bālā in the description. "sauṃ" is not part of Her mantra. In this kavacam, the reference is to sauṃ.

Thank you sir. I understood completely. One more doubt, here in the kavacham "Bālā mantra bījas aiṃ, klīm̐, and sauṃ" are given.. is that Sauh or Saum is correct? Thank you!

1. You may find it in the Nityotsava book written by Umananda. I'm not sure if there's any English translation of this book. The recommended way of getting it, is through a guru, who will grant it with the proper procedure associated with the parā dīkṣa. 2. In general, mantra recitation is also accompanied by the recitation of the associated kavacas and stotras. The reason for it, is to obtain the blessings of the attributes of the deity and protect ourselves from all sides, from all types of energies that may come to us during the mantra japa. You may choose any other kavacam associated with Lord śiva. 3. In my opinion, it should be ṣoḍaśi. If you are very attracted to this kavacam, they you may go ahead with self-initiation. If you are seeing any negative reactions, then please do not go ahead. It is not suitable for all. It is meant for those, who are very serious about self-realization and liberation and are also willing to let go of all material pursuits in their spiritual quest.

Hi Sir, 1) Where do we get the "The root (mūla) mantra of Lord Kāmeśvara", could you please point out to a source? 2) It is mentioned that none of the lord siva mantras will not fructify if this Kavacham is not recited? Does it mean chanting 'Om Namah Sivaya' mantra goes in vain? 3) Can a person who got initiated into panchadasi mantra chant this kavacham, with self initiation? 4) There is a path called 'Svechchachara' which means we can follow our will (good, of course) and do anything we want. So, as per this we can recite this Kavacham, right?
