Following is the Kalika Ashtak, a very powerful Strotra of mothor

Mahakali. Starting from any tuesday of KRISHNA PAKSHA or any ASHTAMI,

recite 51 times on each night for 21 nights. For the sadhana; make

sure your supper is as light as possible, start around 10 PM after

taking bath, wear clean clothes, sit facing south on a woolen, apply

kumkum or gulal or ashta gandh or rakt chandan on your forehead,

light an oil deepak and start chanting while concentrating either on

Mahakali or Guruji.

 

This sadhana was the first Mahavidya related sadhana performed by me

and it was successful on the very first attempt. It creates a

powerful base for other Mahavidya sadhanas and, needless to say, has

other benefits too. It is from September '93 issue of MTYV.

 

Try it, it's easy, you'll love it. You'll know what divine pleasure

actually is.

 

Kalika Ashtak:

Viranchyaadidevaastrayaste gunaastreem,

Samaaraadhya kaaleem pradhaanaa babhuvuh.

Anaadim suraadim makhadim bhavaadim,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Jaganmohineeyam tu vaagvaadineeyam,

Suhridposhinee shatrusanhaarneeyam.

Vachastambhaneeyam kimuchchaataneeyam,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Iyam swarg-daatree punah kalpavallee,

Manojaastu kaamaan yathhaarthha prakuryaat.

Tathhaa te krutaarthhaa bhavanteeti nityam,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Suraapaanamattaa subhaktanuraktaa,

lasatpootachitte sadaavirbhavaste.

Japdhyaan poojaasudhaadhoutapankaa,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Chidaanandakand hasanmandamanda,

Sharachchandra kotiprabhaapunja bimbam.

Muninaam kaveenam hridi dhyotayantam,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Mahaameghakaalee suraktaapi shubhraa,

kadaachidvichitraa krutiryogamaayaa.

Na baalaa na vruddhaa na kaamaaturaapi,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Kshamaaswaaparaadham mahaaguptabhaavam,

may lokamadhye prakaasheekrutamyat.

Tavadhyaan pooten chaapalyabhaavaat,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

 

Yadi dhyaan yuktam pathedhyo manushya,

stadaa sarwaloke vishaalo bhavechcha.

Gruhe chaashta siddhirmrute chaapi mukti,

Swaroopam twadeeyam na vindanti devaah.

Ashish,

Do you think this is the correct translation of Kalika

Ashtak in Hindi. I am enclosing it in tiff format. I

kind of find it difficult to chant reading in english.

If you think this is correct please let us know.

Thanks

Sorry, it's not. Though my scanner is gone, I was able

to make some arrangements to get it scanned for you.

I'm including the Kalika Ashtak in JPG format from

Sep'93 issue of MTYV. I am also uploading it to the

files sections of this group. I urge every member of

this group to chant it, at least, once everyday.

 

Hope it helps.

Great! Your happiness makes me happy.

Sorry, I don't have it.

You can't send attachments using this group's 'post' option. You'll

have to use your mail account. Just log into your account,

compose a message for _AT_ (replace _AT_ with

@), add attachments, click 'Done' and then click 'Send'. Voila! it's

done. That's easy, isn't it?

 

Take care and good luck...
