We will publish all the variations when time permits. I have already committed to this, in another discussion above.

In classical Sansrkrit, it would be 'maṁtra', which is also the most common form used widely in all regional languages of India. The modern post-vedic Sanskrit uses the nasalization of it and it would be 'mantra'. Most texts composed in the recent centuries has used the nasalization for easier pronunciation and also due to the influence of the Northern Indian languages. Down South, the classical variation is more commonly used.

Ji, Do you have notes on Shuddha Shakti Sambudyanta Mala ? the one published here is namarchana which is used during archana right ? Thought the Shuddha Shakti Sambudyanta Mala is the one that is minimum mandatory for upasaka. Ref : https://www.kamakotimandali.com/srividya/khadga.html (Line 13 : The next better thing is to chant Shuddha Shakti Sambudhyanta Mala and the Mala of that particular Tithi. The last thing would be to simply recite Shuddha Shakti Sambudyanta Mala, which is considered mandatory. )

Please clarify after the words Om asya śrībrahmaśāpavimocana should be "mamtrasya" or "mantrasya"?

Guruji Ravi -- you are God's gift to mankind - Let GODDESS give you enough strength to carry this spiritual pursuit. I did buy couple of your books from Amazon. It is outstanding. Will need your blessings.

You cannot do homa with 1000 namas. You can do homa with verses only by adding swaha at the end of each sloka.

Namaskar Ravi Ji, Can we do Homa on Purnima or other special occasions with Lalita Sahasranamavali by replacing "Namaha" with "Swaha" ? If yes, any special precautions to be followed and oblations with cow ghee shall be OK? Please guide. Kind regards, Vineet Gupta

Hello Namesake, About a decade ago I asked the same question to one of the senior pujaris in Bramaramba Temple. He said stay clear of Ugra Devatas when you are in Gruhasta dharma. Unless you have a good guru, you are willing to face any consequences in material life and you are qualified student, you should stay clear of ugra devata sadhanas. For any enemy problem he suggested the following mantra from Durga Saptashloki: "sarvaa baadha prashamanam thrai lokasyaakhileshwari yevam evathvoyakaaryam asmad vairi vinashanam" Since this sloka is commmon knowledge, we dont get excited about it when compared to more esoteric mantras. But he said this is a powerful sloka and when practiced sincerely you will see results in a short period of time without any risk. and I concur. Like Krishnaji said, approach a Tantrik Guru for initiation or follow the safer option of approaching Maa Durga with the above Sloka.
