Sir, can you tell me the main benefits for sadhak after getting siddhi over navakshari. what supernatural powers does one get with this upasana? Does it fulfill ones material needs? or is this for spiritual needs?

Mantra siddhi is a huge subject and it is not that easy to attain siddhi in a mantra. But, a mantra can protect our mind and keep us in Bliss. As far as purascharana is concerned, except home, eveything is to be followed. In case you are not able to do homa, you have to do 40% extra mantra japa. There is no substitute for others. With regard to bhojana, there are small ashrams who feed Vedic scholars in-house. They charge very less for feeding one time.

With regard to mantra, you can do it yourself, provided you know everything relating to mantra shastras. Now-a-days there is no need for your physical presence. You can be initiated through Skype. Assuming that you start mantra sadhana without proper initiation, you may still require guidance from a Teacher, without whom, your practice could become waste.

Thank you sir. Sir what is the main motive for achieving siddhi over chandi navakshari. what are its benefits. One more doubt sir, in case if one can't perform one of the ritual for puruscharana, say brahman bhojan, how to compensate that?

Sir, I am a college student from Kerala. I am spiritually Inclined and aspire from years to achieve mantra siddhi on mantras . But I have never started a sadhana as I have read and heard from many sources that we must receive the mantra from a guru and only shall use it otherwise won't work. Sir, I can't travel to huge distances and seek guru as my situations doesn't permit and its also that nowadays finding a genuine guru competent of giving dekshas is hard. Sir, can we perform these rituals ourselves by taking shiva as our guru in case we don't have one. Will these mantras still fructify by that way?. Is a human guru that much necessary for a mantra siddhi?

Panchapuja in japa is done only mentally. Taking this into account, we use fingers (running of fingers as per karanyasa) and mentally offer panchapuja.

Sir, in panchapuja, why have you said ' as per karanyasa'?. Kindly clarify. I think punchpuja is for offering 5 items to the deity for worshipping her/him. What relation does this punchpuja have with karanyasa?

Unless you're an upasaka of Shri Ucchista Ganapati and initiated into any of HIS mantras, there is no need to perform any nyasas or touching the body parts or energy centers. The kavaca can be recited whenever it's convenient. No timing is necessary. But generally, the Ganesha stotras are very effective on the chaturthi (4th lunar day/night of the lunar cycle) and the chaturdashi (14th lunar day/night of the lunar cycle). Between the day and night, the night time is considered better for a tantric deity such as Shri Ucchista Ganesha. Yes, You can recite for your relative who's really ill in the hospital. May Lord Ucchista Ganesha help you and your relative and bless you all! The prayers are most effective, when one genuinely prays for the benefit of others, rather than for our own selves. Also in general, their intensity and power magnifies, when prayed intensely without any wishes or desires..
