Chandi Path Day 1 All the preliminaries as per Swamiji's book

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Happy Navarathi!!! I know we have covered Chandi Path discussion before

but may I some question and if this have been discussed before, please

highlight accrodingly then............

 

1)Pg 44 Sri Durgastottara Satanama Stotram

 

gorocana laktaka kunkumena

sindhura karpura madhutrayena

vilikhya yantram vidhina vidhijno

bhavet sada dharayathe purarih

 

Swamiji explains :

 

With fragrant gum,lac,red powders ,camphor,ghee sugar and honey ,one

should draw the graphic representation of this truth according to the

rules laid down in scriptures.The knowledgeable one who wears such an

ininscription becomes one with Conciousness of Infinite Goodness

 

 

Does the graphic representation refers to Durga yantra as this is

Durga Stotra and if so do anybody the scripture that refers to this ?

 

 

2)What is the ritual that goes with ;

 

Om Aim Atmatattvam Sodhayami Namah Svaha

 

Om Hrim Vidyatattvam Sodhayami Namah Svaha

 

Om Klim Sivatattvam Sodhayami Namah Svaha

 

 

3)Pg 56 Atha Devya Kavacham

 

Do you touch different part of your body whilst reciting devi kavacham

 

 

4) Pg 85 Kilakam Stotram

 

Swamiji mentions " .......meaning becomes more clearer after

initiation into utkilana and sapoddhara mantra ."

 

What does this means ?
