If we go by the end part of your statement, it clearly overrides karma. Premature death also happens only because of karma. I have explained my level best why these stotrams are needed. The destained hour is nothing by the hour of death decided by karma.

Thank you Sir for these explanation,but what about the The phala sruti of the Lalitha Sahasranama,its says the one who recite Lalitha sahasranama do not die untimely death."Sarva roga prasamanam sarva sampath pravardhanam,Sarvaapath mruthyu shamanam akala mruthyu nivaranam., 2This cures all diseases and gives rise to all types of wealth,It cures all accidental deaths and is an antidote to untimely death.Sarva jwararthi hananam deergayushya pradhayakam,Puthra pradhama puthraanaam purushartha pradhayakam., 3It is a cure for all types of fever, and gives rise to long life,It gives son that too first son and gives three types of wealth."I have read Paramhansa Yogananda book also "Scientific Healing Affirmations" which says "Though death may be the necessary end of the body according to the present human knowledge, still its "destined hour" may be changed by the power of the soul".I totally agree with you that everyone have to bear his own karma or else God would be unjust.But do you think that people dying from untimely death have nothing to do with karma,thats why these stotram save them?Om Namah Shivaya

Dear Guruji,I am very much thankful for the insight Yourself has been creating by the way of your unique interpretation of various namas of Lalitha Sahasranama. I want to translate it into Kannada for the benefit of readers who can absorb the contents in their mother tongue. In this regard I seek your blessings and kind permission.With regards

This needs more discussion as inappropriate reply could lead to confusion. Hence I will take this as a question for the next part. There is difference between Grandeur of God and Grace of God. These hymns help you to understand the Grandeur of God. By reading these Scriptures, you come to a conclusion that God is Supreme, etc. Mere knowledge about God and knowing His or Her Grandeur is not sufficient to get liberation. More on this in the next part.

"If any of these recitations can prevent pre-mature death, there will be no value for "Law of Karma" and God always goes by "Law of Karma", which is also known as "Law of the Lord". Buy why does these stotrams tell that it can save on from premature death?

It is ultimately the karma that alone prevails. When X is disdained to die on a particular day, nothing can prevent that. These verses and hymns undoubtedly give spiritual bent of mind to the aspirants. But for reciting these verses and hymns, one cannot advance in his spiritual path.Only spiritual path leads to liberation. If any of these recitations can prevent pre-mature death, there will be no value for "Law of Karma" and God always goes by "Law of Karma", which is also known as "Law of the Lord".

Thank you Mr.Ravi for this amazing post on Karma,cause and effects.Many stotram and kavacham like Lalitha Sahasranama or sri Rudram promise that one who recite it do not die premature or accidental death.So premature or accidental death are not based on one's previous birth karma?or the reciter of these stotrams or kavacham are protected from their previous karmas?

There is a page titled "easy reading zone" in the greed band at the top of the site. All the verses are available in that link. With regard to Saundaryalaharī, I have only completed up to 51 verses and these 51 verses are available under the "TOPICS" Saundaryalahari. If you post the YouTube link here, everybody will be benefited.

Dear Ravi, do you have all the 17 verses for Mantra Mantruka Pushpamala in one location. I prefer your version as the words are more correct. I like the youtube link. I am looking also for all the verses of Saundaryalahari in one spot. May I suggest youtube link for Kamakalakali Mula Mantrah. It would be nice to hear you chant it!Thank You!!
