Guest guest Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 OM NAMAH SIVAYA Dear Karen, please sign me up for the prayer club. i'm not sure why i didn't so it sooner, i guess, i just figured i'd do the mantras on my own and be anonymous. but today during meditation, i thought if everyone did that (and i'm sure many do since there are so many members) where would the group be. for me, growing up in the US I have learned that not being part of the crowd is almost always the best bet. not necessarily a good practice in the realm of spirituality. i think aligning ourselves with the Infinite Divine, could take me forever(pun intended) and i need all the help i can get. point being, i most certainly want to add to that which, as you say, is capable of changing the destiny of one's life. Please accept these 110 OM NAMAH SIVAYA as the only real thing of value to me that i can offer as my initial contribution. 110, that's one mala plus 2 guru beads. The Guru bead on the bottom is of course MAA, the Shakti. And the Guru bead on the top is SIVA, and we all know who that is.

N. Rao, a prominent Vedic astrologer in India, was glancing over a friend's horoscope when he noticed that the man was about to enter an extremely dangerous planetary cycle. Death was imminent. Rao didn't mention what he'd seen but strongly advised his companion to chant the Maha Mrityunjaya mantra faithfully every day. His friend wasn't an idiot. Knowing that an expert Vedic astrologer wouldn't recommend this particular mantra unless there was a darn good reason, he immediately began to chant it. > > The Maha Mrityunjaya mantra is the great Vedic mantra for starving off death. Translated into English it goes something like, "I honor the All-Seeing One, Who's grace is all-pervading like the fragrance of a flower. May He release me from the grip of death as easily as a ripe fruit is released from a vine!" > > A few weeks later this gentleman was conducting an inspection in a warehouse.

If he hadn't died instantly from a blow to the head or been crushed, he should have suffocated in the time it took them to free him. It turned out that although Rao's friend had been knocked unconscious, once he came to he was no worse for the wear. He had a hairline fracture to a leg bone but was otherwise A-OK! > > I guess most of us in the West would think this was just dumb luck. But Hindus take this kind of story as evidence for the protective power of mantras--and as proof that we can change our destiny with maybe a little boost from God's grace. > > --from The Complete Idiot's Guide to Hinduism by Linda Johnsen (a devotee of Shree Maa who also wrote Daughters of the Goddess featuring Shree Maa) > > > > Plan now to apply a bit of "emergency medicine" this coming Saturday. > > Join Prayer Club! > Jai Maa!
