Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Dear krishnamurthy garu, Long back i had posted this clarification in this forum. The same is being pasted here for you. Though there is no thumb rule to recite both at a time, it is generally a good practice followed to recite both siva kavacha and indrakshi stotra. Upasana of both sakti and saktimAn ie., power and wielder of power is a good practice and any pratyavAya or dosha in the upasana of shakti is sublimated and negated by the saktimAn or weilder of power. In tantra this principle of sakti and saktimAn are called Bhairavi and Bhairava. And hence, the parayana of Lakshmi Ashtottara is prescribed after the parayana of Vishnu Sahasranama etc. So, going by similar lines, the Indrakshi is the form of Durga basically worshipped to cure prolonged illness, fever, contagious diseases, small pox, chicken pox, visha and tivra jwaras etc. Indrakshi is also called SatAkshi, Shakambari, Gauri and Durga. Satakshi is probably the nearer and closer to Indrakshi. Because Indra has 1000 eyes and since SatAkshi is also having 1000 eyes and with her 1000 eyes She protects Her children from diseases etc. (ref Chandi Sapthasati). So, any doshas or yogini pratyavAya, is countered by Siva Kavacha which acts as an armour during the parayana. Moreover, the objective of the Siva Kavacha is also in line with Indrakshi stavah as it too cures the visha jwaras etc. Wonderful results are observed by doing the parayana of Siva Kavacha and application of mantric bhasma on the forehead. Since, Siva is the Master Healer or the Doctor of Doctors, moreover, since He is the Lord of Durga as saktimAn and other mArI devatAs, probably both have been prescribed. with regards, sriram , " Pb " <pibikay wrote: > > Is it the custom or is it a parayana rule that if one does parayanam of Indrkshi Stotra he or she will also have to recite a Siva Stotra, > I want some clarification on this aspect > Further to realise which goal is Indrakshi Stotra Japa is prescribed > Namskaram to all > Jai Mata Di > PBK > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
