Compiling Mantras -- Removing Fear - Chandi Maa Ki Arati

[Guest guest]

I found a mantra for removing fear in one of our most commonly used

chants - the Chandi Arati. Amazing the meanings I skip over in my

rush to learn the sanskrit.

 

"Jai Chandi Jai Jai, Maa Jai Chandi Jai Jai

Bhaya harini Bhava tarini, Bhava Bhamini Jai Jai. Jay Chandi Jai Jai."

 

Be Victorious ! Oh Goddess who tears apart Thought. Be Victorious.

You take away all fear and illuminate the intensity of reality. Be

Victorious.

 

JAI MAA!!!!

Namaste Latha,

Thanks for sharing that with us! A mantra for removing fear is

welcome anytime, but especially after 9/11.

 

Jai Maa!
