Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 ~*~*~*~ Namaskar To All! ~*~*~*~ ~*~ A Little Bit On Kali Bija "Seed" Mantras ~*~ Kali's Bija Mantra or single seed syllable is "krîm", which is the power of action {kriya}. The simple repetition of this mantra can be used to worship Her. The mantra "krîm" is also used in Her worship or just simply the repetition of the name Kali. She also possesses a longer mantra of twenty~two syllables: OM krîm krîm krîm hûm hûm hrîm hrîm daksine kâlike krîm krîm hûm hûm hrîm hrîm svâhâ! Hûm is a mantra of "wrath" and warding off negativity. It also seves to enkindle the fire of Spiritual Knowledge and Self~Inquiry. Hrîm is the mantra of Divine beauty, the descent of Grace, purification and transformation. Dakshina is Kali as the power of discernment, which is both right thought and right action. Kalika is another form of the name Kali. Svâhâ is the Mantra of consecration to the Divine, particularly as the inner of Spiritual Fire Of Awareness. Krîm is repeated three times followed by hûm twice and hrîm twice or a total of seven seed-syllables. Krîm thus emphasizes inner action, which generates the transformative force of hûm, which turns into the ecstatic power of hrîm. These seven syllables can be used by themselves as a mantra to Kali. The Seer of the Kali Mantra is Mahakala, Shiva as the great Lord of Time. Only by becoming Time can we gain the power of mind necessary to stand the Purifying Transforming Energy of Kali which dissolves all Illusion. Along with the mantra, the Kali Yantra can be used. Another useful mantra for Her is the mantra for Chamunda, the fierce form of Kali, from one of Her stories~lore in the Devi Mahatmya: OM aim hrîm klîm châmundâyai vicche svâhâ! This Mantra consists of the Supreme Word OM, followed by the mantras for wisdom, Saravati (aim), for purification, Parvati (hrîm), and for transformation, Kali (klîm), and the mantra svâhâ, which consumates the offering to Chamunda. Vicche means cut, in the sense of cutting off the head of our inner karmic demons "our Rakshasa traits and tendencies" of impure and ignorant karmic vasanas~vrittis~samskaras, and to cut off the head of all our ego~egoic identities and distortions and actions, on all levels. ~*~ Jai Maha Kali! ~*~ Jai Shiva Mahadeva! ~*~ Jai Gurudevaji! ~*~ ~*~ Jai Paramahamsa Sri Ramakrishna! ~*~ Jai MA Sri Sarada Devi! ~*~ ~*~ Jai Swami Vivekananda! ~*~ Jai Sat~Chit~Ananda Brahman Absolute!~*~ ~*~*~*~*~*~ Shivani Sannyasini ~*~*~*~*~*~ ^,,^************************************************************** >Y<*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM*OM* ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
