SRI MAATRE NAMAHA

 

There are two 'CHINTAMANIS' in the universe. One is a jewel

which is under control of the King oF Gods 'MAHAENDRA'. This jewl is

capable to fulfil any desire. And the other is a MANTRA named as

CHINTAMANI which is also capable to fulfil any desire of the

striver. Some elder persons were also says that the throne of

Mahendra the king of Gods is also CHINTAMANI PEETHAM which is

capable to fulfil the desire of king who sit on it.

A story about Chintamani mantra is an interesting one. The

great poet Sri Harsha was a boy of eight years when he worshipped

the Chintamani mantra. After that he became a great poet. No one was

capable to beat beat him in his field during those period.

Sri Harsha father was also a great scholer. Once he went to a

neighbour country to meet the scholers of that country and to gain

victory over them in SASTRA CHARCHA (detailed discussion on

sastras).There was a rule in that sastra charcha. The defeated

scholer should become a slave to the winner in that sastra charcha.

Due to bad luck Sri Harsha father was defeated in that sastra

charcha and became a slave to the winner and he was held up there.

Sri Harsha's mother was a clever lady. She was not digested the

news about her husband slavery to some one in other country. She

knowes the CHANTAMANI mantra and its wonderfull effects, but she

was helpless. She is not capable to perform the 'Mantra japa' of

Chintamani as she is a lady. According to rule of that mantra no

lady is fit to do so. The mantra japa should be performed duly

sitting on a dead body.

After deep thinking she called her son and intiated him with

that powerful mantra. She was told to him to sit on him and to

perform the mantra japa. She was also told to him about the next

action when the Goddess apperead before him. She was laid down and

became dead duly cutting her throat with sharp instrument. Sri

Harsha not known about this. He simply sat down on her mother's body

and started mantra japa. The Goddess of Chintamani mantra appeared

before this small boy and asked about his wish. Sri Harsha simply

said that he will ask boon form Her only after his talks with his

mother. As such the Goddess gave live to Sri Harsha mother. After

that the Goddess made him a great scholer according to his wish and

disapppererd.

Sri Harsha and his mother went to the neighbouring country

where his father was spending his life as a slave. Sri Harsha met

the scholer and invited him for sastra charcha who was deferated his

father previously. Even though he was a small boy Sri Harsha got

victory in that sastra charcha with his vast knoledge given by thef

Goddess of Chintamani His father became freed. He returned to his

country with his parents and a great victory.

After returning to his mother land he wrote a great 'Kavyam'

named as 'NAISHADHAM ' which is also having special importence.

That story shall be discussed shortly.
