Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Dear Learned Members, Are there any specific rules for Samputti. Are there any Do's and Don'ts or do we need to follow our Guru traditions in doing so ? Also is there any specific rule for adding Bijas for Mula Mantras ? e.g., I have seen a couple of different versions for Murugan Mula Mantras. Again is it based on different Guru Parampara traditions ? Regards Balaji Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My teacher told me that there is no hard and fast rule for saMpuTIkaraNa and that one can use any mantra for saMpuTIkaraNa if it is sanctioned by shAstras* or by sAMpradAya**. *shAstra-s: Sometimes texts directly mention the combination and procedure. **sAmpradAya: Even if unable to locate a practice in any surviving texts, things which are handed down by teachers. > Also is there any specific rule for adding Bijas for Mula Mantras ? Same as above I guess. I would be interested in hearing from others on these. > e.g., I have seen a couple of different versions for Murugan Mula > Mantras. Again is it based on different Guru Parampara traditions? This is common for many mAlA mantra-s. I think people just follow one given by teacher. Sometimes if one has the mUla mantra of a devata, the teacher might permit saying any version of the mAlA mantra of that devata.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Namaste, I have nbeen a part of the group reading and learning. Have been quiet without contributing to the group yet I feel today I must reply. Yes there are rules and Do's and Dont's in Basically ALL Mantra. As one knows the most common rule is always Chant with Shudha Maans' and also with Shoodha Roopa. The other thing is the Initiation of a Guru is widley observed but what I have felt is that we are all God's Children, our luv for the Mother is so strong than anything, it also depends on whta our relationship is with our Devine, some ask for Bonds, some for Blessing but the main thing is hereto look into is Our Gratitude offered once our Prayer is Blessed. DOnt forget the Devine after that , which most of us do so, then another day comes for another request and so on and on.... The reason being these mantras should be read / known only by people who have got initiation from their Guru. Any wrong pronounciation of these mantras will result in wrong effects for the readers. I suggest you can consult your Guru before CHnating. Pranam, Babitha , " subrabalaji " <subrabalaji wrote: > > Dear Learned Members, > > Are there any specific rules for Samputti.
