Yes, nyasas are there for Sri Rudram.

To my knowledge, there is no such rule. Entire Sri Suktam should be chanted together and one verse per day. Homa is not mandatory.

Few questions in mind,should purusha suktam be recited first before sri suktam, secondly sri suktam is to be recited one verse a day or all the verses in a day,is it mandatory to perform homa with it.

Commentary by Śrī Bhāskararāya is mentioned in the description. Thank you for the link. I will study this book and relevant material and translate when time allows. The other book may be alluding to the same material as well. The grāndhika bhāṣa is literally Sanskrit and is difficult to understand unlike the lokika/vyavahārika bhāṣa that we normally speak and understand. I will do my best to translate into English.

Thank you. Swamijis has been spreading this sooktam for many years now. Thanks to his zeal of spreading what he calls "pratyangira rukkulu" many around the globe are supposedly reciting it. Your translation should surely help them. I have read Swamijis translation in his "pratyangira sadhana" book. It is good translation but too short & in grandhika basha :)

Krishnaji, Please check this link below for the telugu book "Srividya Panchadasa Khadgamala" by Sri Varanasi Venkateswarulu garu. Pl. read the description completely in which they mention that Srividyaranya commented on Khadgaadi malas and did Mantrodharas for all. https://www.avkf.org/BookLink/display_titled_book.php?book_id=16621 There is another bigger commentary on secrets of Khadgamala(Khadgamala Rahasyalu) by Sri Nori Subramanya Shastriji : https://www.telugubooks.in/products/sri-devi-khadgamala-rahasyalu For some strange reasons all telugu commentators use telugu grandhika basha which I struggle hard to get through. Thats why I requested you for an English translation :) Given large number of initiated and uninitiated members recite Khadgamala daily, it might help all of them if you can find time to translate Sri vidyaranya vyakhya for atleast the first mala/Khadgamala/Shuddha shakti mala. Thanks in advance :)

Can you please share the source where you got this information Swati ji? Regarding the Devi Khaḍgamālā vyākhya by śrī vidyārṇava yeti.

Very well described! Thank you! We hope to provide the sūktam with the explanation. Maybe sometime this year when time permits. The kṛtya-s themselves can help evade any problems and also protect us. They can be used to destroy enemies as well. The book by Swami ji explains them very well!

In most cases, it is just bad karma extracting it's due from us. In some rare cases, it is possible that someone may have performed some black magic and we are seeing the bad effects of it. One way to tell is that it happens on most vulnerable family members. The experience is almost simultaneous or in quick succession. Very strange unexplainable stroke of bad luck etc. One will also come across and witness certain signs that may indicate this. Whatever the case maybe, by reciting the initiated mantras of any deity, one may escape from the bad effects of black magic. It is better to choose higher deity mantras and perform the appropriate procedures during the mantra japa. This may mitigate the ill effects to some extent. If the faith is very strong, then nothing will pinch us. It might be best to consult with a guru and explain the situation and seek a remedy, if available.
