Dear Sir. I appreciate your work and production of a complicated subject. Could you make video placing the Mantras separately . Watching you from UK. This is a VERY IMPORTANT SUBJECT. Sending you ❤
Hi bro you did good work but mantra decoded at 11:10 doesnot have om at end it ends with hreem but at 51:20 you manetioned mantra mentioned by siva as ending with hreem om again. Did I miss something here? Or is there any mistake?
sorry sir, i should have clarified, according to the mantroddhara given with this stotra there is no om in the end, but due to samputeekarana rule (since it starts with om hreem so om is also added to the end in certain traditions, following that I had chanted the one I follow, but when i was decoding word by word i decoded as per the mantroddhara shloka,
@@Spiritual-b5m no sir . These nyAsas and dhyanas are specifically followed while chanting this stavaraja. , or which chanting the vatuka bhairava mantra. For chanting Kalabhairava ashtakam there are no nyasas , or dhyana
Thanks wonderful is there a paperback version of book? Also can you confirm if this sthothram follows dakshinachar or vamachara padhathi? I think to do nyasa should have initiation.
www.amazon.in/Hundred-Eight-Names-Bhairava-Koushik/dp/B08GB6TQP9/ Paperback version. It's a stotra from rudra Yamaha. The poora and utthara peethika doesn't have reference to 5 Ms so it's used by both kinds of sadhakas. According to their traditions. Yes you may require deeksha for mantra and nyasa . But you can chant the stotra and do dhyana without deeksha. . Thank you for your interest.
@@sachinthapa7231 for mantra japa deeksha is required . Stotra you can chant without special initiation rites. Doing nyasa and poorva peethika and phalashruti is good and recommended . If you are planning to chant multiple times do the nyasas and chant the poora peethika and phalashruti for the first time and then chant only the stotra ( bhairavo bhootanaayhashca ... vishnurateeva hi) If you only chant that stotra part u wouldn't say it is wrong, but nyasas and dhyanas make the practice more effective
@@authorkoushik sir actually i want to chant as a part of my daily life routine . However i am not well versed in sanskrit so wanted to read main stotra only. Will It works?
@@authorkoushik thank you for guidance.probably this is only the video which ellaborates about vairava. There is a slight variation in few names in your book and gita press book which I have. Eg pravavhavan and in gita press prativanmaan . Can I follow any of them? Before Can we chant only one dhyana shlokas among three.?
@@sachinthapa7231 yes you can choose any one dhyana according to your parpose , satvica dhyana for gyana or moksha, rajasa dhyana for all other benefits, tamasa dhyana for warding off negative forces, karakalita kapalah for guidance in sadhana and overall protection, yes there are alternate readings for certain names, you can follow any alternate reading you wish to,
@@authorkoushik sir I have started chanting main stotra and rajasik dhyana as my lifestyle part but without nyasa. Hope it works and goes well Thanks to you for guidance
@@thewanderingmind6013 yes you can chant without initiation bro. For chanting the mantra you would need an initiation nut for chanting this hymn made of 108 names , initiation is not mandatory.
@@Mr.Chandrashekar for attaining different desires, we can't it for specific number of times ( I think it has been explained in the video after the pyala shruti) Generally you can chant the stotra once a day , or twice a day , or three times a day. Daily
@@Mr.Chandrashekar yes it is prescribed to be chanted 108 times before chanting the stotra in the vidhaana. As mentioned in the video ( traditional scholars do recommend initiation)
In the POV of Advaita and kashmir shaivism ( where bhairava upasana is important) . Bhairava ( god) is non dual to self. Self is not body , mind or Even the individual consciousness but the awareness that is all pervasive and universal ( the atman) . Abhinava gupta also says " tvam cha mahesha sadaiva mama aatmaa' - you are the awareness , the self O mahesha . So realizing God in us and everything else is realizing self. Thank you for the wonderful question Also in this stotra itself there is a name bhootaatnaa -bhairava is the Atman ( self , consciousness or awareness ) of all the living beings . Hence we have phrases like shivoham in our tradition. And in vedanta we have sentences like aham brahmaasmi ( I am that Supreme reality) @shakthipradeep3558
In simple words realizing true nature of the self is realizing that self has no separate existence from God so in non dualistic point of you self realization and God realization is one amd the same. Because everything is a mere expansion of God ( or reflection of God ) like waves and the ocean. Wave ceases to exist without the ocean. Cause and effect relationship.
