Shatachandi Yagna

Hey @Maoshan_Wanderer since you are on this thread I have a question regarding the audio, sorry for interupting the expanation.

☉What do you think is the best approach for this audio, since it is a real life ceremony of calling the deity?

☉Where do I find the mantras that are on this audio? I found a series on youtube which is a series of 13 parts that are 2:30 hours each. Is this yagna that long to read and achieve the benefits?

☉Also do you know if the effects I wrote above are the real effects and when do someone achieves them? Just a listen and you good to go?

☉How can I connect with the deity? I really liked her, I mean really liked Durga, she seems really familiar to me I guess? Like we have a kind of connection (?) (although I know she is the mother of all so a connection is a must to live I guess). Also I feel like she is kinda like the Virgin Mary? Is there a correlation?

I know these are way to much questions :stuck_out_tongue:

  • Chandi is a very fierce deity. Unless one has studied her mantra from a competent teacher, I would NOT recommend jumping into such mantras directly, especially without the proper backing of lineage energies to protect if something goes wrong. Deities like Kali, Chandi, etc. are not really for all. There is a lot of preparation that is needed before invoking archetypes such as these as they can wreak havoc on the energy system if not sufficiently prepared.
  • The Chandi Yagna involves a very elaborate protocol. Several thousand recitations of the mantra of Chandi, followed by pre-procedures such as an armour of protection, a ritual for “unlocking” the power of Chandi (it is locked unless transmitted through a person who has the key), etc. The actual ritual involves recitation of 700 verses. To recite the full Chandi (we call it Saptashati - the “seven hundred verses”), it takes me 3.5 hours - I do it only twice a month due to the effort/time involved. So, unless one is proficient, this could take a year or two for most to master (assuming familiarity with Sanskrit)
  • How to listen to the audio? I wrote on that topic here.

This is a complex and very elaborate ritual. This is another reason why extra thanks are to be extended to Dream for making the energies from such a complex ritual available to us.

As to the frequency, every now and then should be good enough (though I do listen to it everyday). The ritual itself is performed say a few times a year by ritualists. This field however, is the basic ritual X 100 times - and Shata-chandi (100 times Chandi) is generally annually performed in large temples, etc. So, I would say, every now then, may be once a month/quarter should be good enough. Ultimately, it depends on how well you are responding to the field, or its energy (the same criterion as other fields).

my ancestors where mainly priests for christianity. Is there a way to know my lineage clearly? I have no experience at all with any of this but I want to go deeper.

what preperation exactly? The only thing I do with my energy body tbh is listening to Sapien med audios, I haven’t done anything on my own.

I have heard it on loop for almost 2 days, love it still. Didn’t have any problems and I think it doesn’t stack? I don’t feel like getting drained or anything.

Thank you for you wisdom @Maoshan_Wanderer

The lineage here would mean a lineage that has the energies of Chandi in them - one accesses this either through familial lineage (if the father/mother transmits the attunement) or through a competent teacher.

Generally, mantras of Ganesha and Shiva are first perfected, and one of the more benevolent forms of the Goddess before moving on to fiercer forms. I received instruction into this mantra sixteen years into my spiritual practice.

Experiences depends on the individual. The recommendations are what work well for most people. There are always others who spam it - some get away with it, some don’t.

To summarize:

  • To listen to this field to access the graceful energies of the Goddess - not much rules are needed.
  • To actually invoke the Goddess directly using the mantra and the ritual - LOTs of prep and rules are needed. It is an occult ritual and without the direct guidance of an experienced teacher, should not be attempted.

oh so the field don’t invoke the goddess directly,only some aspects of her but she might be invoked?Also does kundalini has to do anything with the divine goddess?

The field makes energies of the Shatachandi ritual - available to us.

It is not the same as directly invoking the Goddess. The field is a safer way to approach such a potent ritual - avail the benefits without the associated risks.

Think of Angelic Intercession. Is it same as invoking an angelic being to appear before you through a complex ritual like the Abremalin Operation which only the most advanced of practitioners should attempt? Not really. It is a gentle way to seek help form Angelic beings - you may feel their presence, and most experience their grace.

Chandi is Kundalini personified in a blazing state piercing through the heart knot. This is why caution is required when invoking forms like Kali, Chandi etc., to ensure sufficient prep has been done. Hence we say - Tantra is like a jet. It flies very fast, but without the needed skills, an accident can be fatal.

Much gratitude for your in-depth answer, @Maoshan_Wanderer !

Ahh, yes. I spent alot and believed that they had more power than they did. I have (4+8+12) in a necklace, (2+6+8+12+14+16 mukhi) in a bracelet and 17 mukhi in a necklace.

Got these also…the Shani and Ketu yantra. Don’t believe I used these correctly.

@Maoshan_Wanderer which lineage of the tantras do you follow, most closely I mean. I am getting so much value from the teachings of Abhinavagupta and also the recognition school teachings such as the Pratyabhijnahrdayam. It describes a level of non duality I’ve experienced, but never seen accurately articulated until now

My lineage is derived from Nepal, the underlying philosophy of which is the Trika school of Kashmir Shaivism. We study the works of Abhinavagupta mandatorily as well for a strong philosophical basis, but practical Tantra of the Kashmir school is now lost as a living tradition, remaining mostly as a theory after the invasion of Kashmir and the unrest there forcing most Kashmiri Hindus to leave their homes. Our school is the syncretic system between the school of Kali from Kashmir, and the living tradition of Tripura from Southern India, which was syncretized in Nepal.

Thanks for sharing this. I’m only just getting started, but the trika school certainly feels like home for me.

It was time for my monthly visit to this field, as I try to schedule it around the full moon. My intention while listening is to have a feel for the Divine feminine energy to be a role model and inspiration, a source of strength, especially when I feel weak or depleted.

I was listening while trying to put my child to sleep. I was filled with such motherly tenderness, which is very unlike me. (My own mother describes me as cold lol smh)

But I found myself thinking: What a great privilege it is to be made the guardian and protector of this small person. I thought of that moment in WandaVision (spoilers?) where she says, “Thank you for choosing me to be your mom.” :pray::heart:

@Maoshan_Wanderer

Also applies to “Ashta Lakshmi Maha Yagna” ?.

The rule is 3-4 times per use. ANNUAL or QUARTERLY use. But what if I listen to it every day?

Are there any negative effects? Is it disrespectful to listen to it every day as if it were common field?

There are people who may really like the music of these FANTASTIC RITUALS and feel good about it.

Thanks for your help.

I wouldn’t worry about that too much. You may have missed it but Maoshan listens to it everyday*, too:

*I listen to all the other Yagnas and Homams everyday (but Maoshan’s the expert here).

Nope, nothing bad will happen. In fact, I do listen to Chandi, Ashta Lakshmi and Ganesha audios every day! I listen to these first thing in the morning so that the energies are with me all day.

As with any field, do watch if you feel a sense of overwhelm, etc., but the way the audios are designed, I don’t think that should be a problem.

A Chandi Homa performed with authenticity for those curious on how exactly it is done.

The period this was done is called Varahi Navaratri (nine nights dedicated to the goddess named Varahi, who represents the physical energy of the Goddess and is invoked to protect oneself from dangers) - and hence her seed mantra is used to sandwich every verse of Saptashati 700 verses (called samputa or sandwiching technique) - which generates a very unique and powerful effect that is a combination of two deities - Chandi and Varahi.

The fire ritual is empowered by these aspects - breath control, mantra, intention, an existing connection to the deity by the main conductor of the ritual, presence of mandalas/yantras to focus the energy and finally, fire consecrated through mandalas and mantras which amplifies the energy and brings through the presence of the deity invoked. The ritual is generally preceded by a million recitations of the mantra, and followed by feeding the poor, charity, etc.

Would buying Shatachandi Yagna be good investment for a future student?

For anything really.

But what exactly would you have in mind to achieve that you thought of this field?

4 Likes

Yes!

Chandi is the archetypal combination of three Goddesses.

  • Mahasarasvati (Creation) - Knowledge (worldly, and spiritual), transcendence over senses (including focus, concentration, memory, etc.)
  • Mahalakshmi (Preservation) - Wealth (prosperity, abundance in all possible ways, good luck, profits, etc.), transcendence over space
  • Mahakali (Destruction/Recycle) - Power (energy, protection - can blast negative energies/entities of any form, I doubt there are entities that can stand in the way of this energy), transcendence over time

The Mahasarasvati aspect, who is the archetypal goddess of knowledge and learning, helps with education related pursuits.
