devi kadgamAlA stothram

[Guest guest]

Respected ones,

 

I seek your guidance on the correct version of the

devi kadgamAlA stotram's.

 

I have seen a few versions, including printed ones and

taken from the net. There are two areas in which I

have my doubt. Request your help in clarifying these

pl.

 

1. There is a difference in the listing of the

siddhis.Some include garima siddhi, while others dont.

Some have totally eleven siddhis. There are only 10

positions in the first line of the bhoopura, hence

where does one position the sarvakAma siddhi, if we

take the '11 siddhi 'version.

 

2. Some texts on reading of the Srichakra, say that

the positions of the devis in the pratamAvarNA alone

come in a pradakshina sequence, while devIs in all

other AvarNA come in an apradakshina sequence. There

are some other texts which say that devIs in

prtama,dwitheeya, triteeya AvarNAs come in pradkshina;

devis in all other AvarNAs come in apradakshina

sequence. Which of these is correct?

 

Request your enlightened inputs.

 

apaadakshamaarpanam.

 

With prayers to Her

Gopi

Dear Sushree Mangala

 

Thanks for the inputs and the lead. On the flip side, this adds one more version

to my list! May be I need to increase my prayers to let HER guide me to the

correct version.

 

May be this is a " gupt " knowledge that the learned members of this team dont

want to share in a common forum.

 

Once again, thanks for the inputs.

Gopi

The depiction brought tears in my eyes.. Thank you very much. I am one of the

upasakas who are Blessed by Devi and seek Her Blessings always. This pictorial

representation made me feel reach a sublime happiness stage today.

Thanks again

Om Srimaatre namaH.

 

Actually, a version of the Kadgamala that I have adds further to the

confusion to the discussion re the siddhis and their placement. The

version in question is in a full sarannavarathri pooja kalpa, edited

by Brahmashree Chandrashekara Iyer.

 

In it there are 12 siddhis in the outer chakra -

Anima,Lahima,Gharima,Mahima,Isitva,Vasithva,Prakamya,Bhukti,Iccha,Pra

pti,Sarvakama,Moksha.

(the gharima and moksha siddhis do not occur in two other versions I

have, and gharima is mentioned in another but not moksha siddhi).

 

Further, the next set lists the following bhairavi devis

Asitanga bhairavi,Ruru bhairavi,Chanda bhairavi,Krodha

bhairavi,Unmata bhairavi,Kapala bhairavi,Bhikshana bhairavi and

Samhara bhairavi.

This list of the 8 bhairavis preceeds the 8 matruka devis in the

second line. I do not have this set in any other version and would

be very greatful for upasakas who may know their placements to

enlighten me on that aspect.

 

Sri gurubhyo namaha.

Leaving the exact details to knowledgable members on the upAsana

vidhi-s, I like to point out that usually there are multiple versions

with slight differences in text and methods for many of these things.

 

A learned member said in the past that when such is the case, one

should follow only that method taught by their teacher. In case

the teacher is no longer here, from a senior/elderly disciple of the

teacher.

 

There is also a statement probably in the rudrayAmala or elsewhere

confirming the above.

 

Probably this explains the silence of many upAsaka-s in the list on

this matter?
