Namaste Papia and all: Nice to hear from you. Hope you and your

family are well. That is a great question: why chant the Kavach?

What am I protecting from?

Speaking for myself, if I am going into the world, I wish to have

success dealing with people in the world, to keep safe driving in the

car, and to keep a " bubble " of purity and safety around me and those I

am with. I ask to be one with Maa, and that She will shine Her light

and joy and wisdom through me, into the world and all I am with.

I imagine that each time I touch a part of my body and chant the

mantra adding a piece of Armour, that She who lives in me, is being

enlivened, that Her ever shining light, covered by my stresses, is now

being brightened, and my experience of Union with Her is enriched and

enhanced.

It is so cool, and I am so thankful.

I hope others will share how they feel performing the Kavach and Chandi.

 

Jai Ma Jai Swami

Namaste Vishweshwar, Ramya, Srini and All,

 

Being uninitiated and ignorant of the process of

wearing the Kavach, I have just recited the mantras

and visualized with limited capacity the images as

described in the translation, coinciding with various

the directions and body parts. Are there specific

mudras, symbolic gestures or physical actions intended

to accompany the chanting of Kavach as you seem to

allude to in the recent reply? Is it sufficient to

chant the mantras and visualize without doing physical

gestures if one has not received instruction?

Sincerely,

Eric
