Durga Chandi Path ( Durga Saptashati 1 To 13 Chapter ) Full Mp3 Download

[Edilma Howard]

Navangamis a method for which nine prayers are recited prior of starting reading the book. Navangam stotrams are: Devi Nyasa, Devi Avahana, Devi Namani, Argala Stotram, Keelaka Stotram, Devi Hrudaya, Dhala, Devi Dhyana and Devi Kavacha.

As per the prescribed methods in ancient scriptures, Devi Mahatmya should be read in one sitting. After finishing the recital of Devi Mahatmya, one should chant the Devi Suktam (slokas 7 to 36 of Chapter 8).

The Devi Aparsdha Kshamapan Stotram of 12 verses is chanted after the end of the 13th Chapter of Devi Mahatmyam.

Would like to know when the Kshama Pratana and Uttara Nyasam is to be recited.

Shall greatly appreciate clarification on this.

Thanking you . Regards

You believe me or not after doing Saptasati on regular basis my major problems are resolved. You need to believe god you will get solution for every thing there is nothing impossible thing if you believe ma durga .

If we recite Durga Saptashati over more than 1 day (e.g. over 3 days, 7 days or 9 days), should the Trayang Mantra be recited on every single day or only on the first day? Similarly, should the Devi Suktam be recited after the paath everyday or only on the last day? I would be really grateful if someone knowledgable person can answer please. Thank you.

Chanting the Chandi itself is an inspiration from that Durga Devi. If your heart feels to chant, then do not ignore; it will only do good. Possibly, we men need to be initiated to chant HER glory ?

Please pardon my comments since I am not a teacher, by any means. However, as someone who has been joined with the Devi Mahatmyam fro the past 45 years, the text seems to have become my sole existence.

In that case, reading anything about HER is offering love, gratitude, affection, and so much else. What rules stand in the way? If She in complete charge, what need to ask for something, even though we feel deeply wounded as part of daily living?

What is perception, pain, suffering and joy except a series of thoughts. How and where do thoughts originate, and where do they exert their effects? In the Holy Chandi, She challenges, dvitiiyA kA mamAparA? WHO [ what] is other than ME.

It is often a very bitter pill to swallow, as the pain of life moves us to turn to the Mahatmyam, just as some turn to the leela of Bhagavan in the holy Ramayana or the Srimadbhagavat Purana. For reasons difficult to express, some find the same joy and comfort in reading this Mahatmyam, the leela of Holy Mother.

Having such a person do the recitation, and seek some boons, might be a good way, since the power of mantra is being invoked. No longer is one having a loving, casual, constant converstaion with Mother, but one is asking HER to change something for the better, or to receive rewards like wealth.

If we have to read Durga Saptsati in more than 1 days (3 or 7 or 9) then how to recite Kawach, Argala, kilak, ratri suktam, devyarthvsirsham ? It is suggested to start Durga Saptsati after reciting Kawach, Argala, kilak, ratri suktam, devyarthvsirsham, do we need to recite these daily?

3.Shumbha/ Nishumbha: One more set of demons within us are Shumbha/Nishumbha. Shumbha means doubting oneself and Nishumbha means doubting others. When the mind is clogged with doubt about oneself or others, neither peace nor progress is possible- The army of Shumbha/ Nishumbha consist of following demons :

b)Chanda/Munda: Chanda represents an argumentative person, one who opposes everything. Munda, on the other hand, has no reasoning at all. With Chanda and Munda, wrong logic and perception prevail

c)Raktabija: He possesses a unique power. Whenever a drop of his blood falls to earth, another demon of identical size and strength springs up. Raktabija blood represent the overwhelming power of desire. Like a seed, every desire that falls on the fertile soil of our mind grows to maturity and bursts with seeds for the next planting. Every desire produces the seeds of many more, and we find we are never satisfied. Killing of Raktabija represents killing of these tendencies in us.

The war between the gods and the demons actually refers to the perpetual conflict between the forces of light and darkness, between righteous and unrighteous urges. Thus there are two opposing psychic forces within all of us, which with the help of a force (you call such force by whatever name according to your religious orientation) beyond our power, we have to over-come

i am a non hindi individual but a mother godess worshipper in search of someone who can teach me the right pronounciation and process to attain devi

i am willing to do what ever to learn

i honestly need a true tacher of sri maha vidya.

have been doing durga sapshati with priest for years but he is not interested in sharing

please help

That you are aking these questions means that it is the Holy Mother Herself Who is arising as this bhava, this thought. So, SHE would also provide the resources. The same questions you ask began troubling me around 1973, and it was not until 1976 that i was able to find a path. From that time to this, it has been a process of continuous search, but also some joy. Or, rather, a lot of joy, amidst all other tribulations in life, and the sole thing that has kept me alive, and partially able to understand why one has taken brith. Hence, my love for this text is beyond words.

What you ask should ideally be communicated to you by some one who has dedicated her/his life to this sadhana. You will find many books on the subject, including one by an Americal swami who makes veryh categorical statements which is not how i was taught. Maybe Mother has given him insights in a particular way, or maybe it is something else.

Thanks for the wonderful information.

At Chennai many Mahila Mandali complete the entire Parayanam of Devi Mahatmyam In one sitting on three or four occasions during Navaratri.

The entire Parayanam takes about 4 hours.

Of course practices before and after the main recitation vary according to each group.

This article will help them in future Parayanams.

Maha Periyavaa Saranam.

At beginning of Devi Saptashati, detailed procedure of puja with Nyas, Mudra etc given. My question is whether detailed puja before reading is necessary or we can just go with reading as per your procedure. It is so powerful that many people avoid to read in fear of something bad will happen if there is any fault in reading.

very nice article.Which stotra should be read before reading saptshati path adhyaya in navratra.Is it necessary to read Trayangam or Navangam mantra on every day before start of 9/10 days parayana .please guide me.Devi aparadh kshamapana stotra should read right after parayana or after siddh kunjika stotra.

this is very vital information. I understand from my guru that reciting narayaneeya stuthi 11th chapter for 41 days continuously with lamp lit with ghee will give you the purpose of your prayer. Devi will be always with you,

will protect you from all your worries.

Thanks a lot for this post on Navarathri eve. Never knew about Sidha Kunjika Sthothram till now. Seems very important to chant. I am posting in this Sidha Kunjika Sthothram with meaning br P. R. Ramachander Maama for people like me, who did not know. Jaya Jaya Sankara, Hara Hara Sankara! Sri Devyai Namaha!

I would like to chant the Devi Mahathyam but may not be able to do the full text together in a single sitting or in a day. So if I am to split the chapters across days, are there any prescribed format for it?

The order of reciting Durga Saptashati Parayana daily is: Anga Mantra Krama, Navakshari Chandi Mantra, Devi Mahatmya. Again Navakshari Chandi mantra in end of every chapter with Devi Suktam & Siddh Kunjika Stotram.

In Tryanga Parayana, three limbs are recited before parayana of Shree Chandi.

One must chant Devi Kavacham, Argala Stotram and Devi Keelakam and then start Shree Chandi parayana if done by Trayanga Vidhi.

Shree Bhaskararaya has his own thoughts on this, Bhaskararaya consider that Kavach, Argala, Keelak, Navarna mantra jaap & Ratri Suktam these Purva Panchangas (first 5 limbs) must be recited before path parayana & Devi Suktam, Navarna jaap & the Rahasyas tarayam these Uttar Panchangas (last 5 limbs )must be chanted after Parayana. Thus, completing total Dashanga Parayana (10 limbs). This is considered as Dashamga-yut-Krama.

(PS - This Krama given by Bhaskararaya is followed by most Saptashati books available in market. As this is in accordance with Marichi tantra too.)

Various Kramas are in fashion to do Shree Chandi Parayana, like Mahavidya Krama, Nikumbala Krama, Beejakshar Krama, Maha-Chandi Krama, Yogini, Ratnadeepika krama, etc. And each krama is as powerful as other.

To say in few words about these Kramas, in each of these kramas the chapter sequences are changed. For eg. in Mahavidya Krama & Chandi Krama chapters are read frm Pratham, Madhyam & Uttar Chatira (1-13) in sequence. While in Mahachandi Krama the chapters are read in reverse order Uttar, Madhyam & then Pratham Charitra (13-1).

(Commonly people use Mahavidya Krama or Chandi krama thus, reading chapters 1 to 13 in a sequence.)

Coming to how to read a particular fashion in a number of days.

Devi mahatmya's complete parayana can be done in 1, 3, 7, 9 days, depending on time & capacity of Sadhaka.

(Here we are discussing on Mahavidya Krama or Chandi Krama of recitation. Which is most common as I said earlier.)

But, the basic problem here is that till 9 days the parayana continues, and Chandi yagna which is usually done on the completion of parayana, will be scheduled on the 9th day, with Kanya & Vipra pujan. Also, additional stotrams like Rahasya trayam, Chandi Aavran puja, Suktams, concluding nyasas, etc must be done on the very same day. Which becomes too hectic to be completed in a single day. Because, this in addition to the nitya puja of the devi established in ghaatam. Thus usually people do Sapta divsiya 7 days parayana, with Yagna & Avaran & concluding nyas pujas on Mahashtami, Kshma & Shanti anushthan with Kanya & Vipra puja on Mahanavami or vice-versa (Altough Shanti anushthans happen on Navami always).
