The secret of Kavacha, Argala and Kilaka of Chandi Sapthasathi

[Guest guest]

Dear members,

 

Generally, the Kavacha implies the Armour effectuating the divine protection.

The Kavacha is used to guard and protect the body, ward off illness from it and

cure from illness when it has besieged the body. It ensures the proper

distribution and operation of forces in the very cells of the body, the

Pindanda, in consonance and harmony with the operation of the Divine Law in the

Cosmos, Brahmanda and sets right all discord. The Prayer is made to Pradhana

Devata Chandi and her Parivara Devatas. Every limb and part of the body is

energized with Kavacha Parayana.

 

Argala means a Bolt and knowledge of the existence is necessary to open the

closed door. A reading of Argala Stotra is mandatory for opening up the secrets

sealed in Sapthasathi. The most important Mantra of Argala is “Rupam Dehi

Jayam Dehi Yasho Dehi Dwisho Jahiâ€. There is also a Sapthasathi Parayana

Vidhi in which this Mantra is done as a samputikarana with entire Sapthasathi

which is called “RUPA CHANDI VIDHANAâ€.

 

Here, RUPAM implies the SWARUPA, the TRUE FORM OF ONESELF which is

NON-DIFFERENT FROM CHANDI.

 

Kilaka is the King-Pin in the Machine or the Pivot on which the whole thing

hinges. There is condition acting like a Pivot, the fulfillment of which

furnishes the key to open the hidden secrets. If the recital of Sapthasathi has

to be effective, a condition has to be fulfilled and that is mentioned in the

Kilaka.

 

This is because the HIDDEN SECRETS MAY NOT FALL IN THE UNDESERVING HANDS.

 

Now, these KAVACHA, ARGALA and KILAKA have to be chanted all three at a time.

The secret being this:

 

Generally, the KAVACHA or Armour what the warriors wear is not a complete

entity by itself. It is an integration of all the parts that is used for

protection of the particular limb of the body viz., there is a separate piece of

Kavacha like face mask, shoulders, breast, waist, back etc. All these bits and

pieces are integrated together with a BOLT (ARGALA) that rests on KILAKA

(PIVOT). So, the entire KAVACHA rests on this PIVOT and BOLT.

 

So, when UTKILANA is PERFORMED with the MANTRA, the NAIL or PIVOT is removed

and the BOLT or ARGALA drops off. When the BOLT AND PIVOT is opened, at one

shot the entire KAVACHA or ARMOUR is loosened and it drops off from the Body.

 

This KAVACHA is the KANCHUKA of JIVA which is a limitation for the JIVA. So,

with the UTKILANA mantra and with the mantra “RUPAM DEHI ……†of ARGALA,

the NUT AND BOLT are removed. As soon as ARGALA AND KILAKA are removed, the

KAVACHA OF JIVATVA drops off and he is in his SWA-SWARUPA STHITHI.

 

This is the secret why all the three ie., Kavacha, Argala and Kilaka are

chanted together. Individual parayana from either of the three is not

prescribed. But only with Purva-Anga of Sapthasathi.

 

With regards,

Sriram
