Guest guest Posted January 4, 2008 Report Share Posted January 4, 2008 Namaste Sivakumar While I am far from the most experienced person on the listserv, here is the Chandi sankalpa practice that Shree Maa and Swamiji have suggested we follow, along with page numbers. Sometimes older editions have slightly different page numbers, but nothing that far off you shouldn't be able to figure it out. ========================== Kavacam (pg 56) Argala (pg 72) Kilakam (pg 80) Devi Shuktam (Chapter 5) Narayani Stotram (Chapter 11) Rig Vedic Devi Suktam (pg 317) Siddha Kunjika Stotram (pg 370) ....and then begin adding one other chapter a day until you complete the book. Then the siddha path, and then the whole book. Then start over again until it is comfortable. ========================== If I have made an error here, I am sure someone more familiar with the text can correct it. I'm so glad you are joining us.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 Namaste Wendy and everybody, i was just going over the page numbers with Rosario who is here at the Mandir and something came to my attention: *Devi Suktam -- is part of the 5th chapter but not all of it....it begins with " Namo Devyai Mahadevyai Sivayai satatam namah... " (sloka#9) and goes to enumerate the forms of Mother we bow to, ie, Hunger, Sleep, Humility, etc (for example) " Ya Devi sarva bhuteshu Sraddha rupena samstita, namastasyai, namastasyai, namastasyai, namo namah " better yet, the Devi Suktam is its own " chapter " and is identified as the Tantric Praise of the Goddess (Atha tantroktam devi suktam). it is directly after the Rig Vedic Devi Suktam.
