We are pleased to release a precious and blessed recording of Chandi Saptashati in Guruji’s voice. This recording was made by Guruji at the house of Dr. and Mrs. Saroja Viswanathan in Webster, NY in 1988, the year of the first-ever visit of Guruji to the United States. And as Dr. Vish and Saroja Aunty narrate - “This was the first time we had seen Guruji in person and we had just met him. We did not know him at all personally. We brought Guruji to our house, and without any reason, he asked for a tape recorder which we promptly arranged in the upstairs room. He went upstairs and started to record Chandi Saptashati. We had no idea about this recitation or its significance. We just complied with his wish. Only many years later when we started to look into learning and doing Chandi Homam, did we realize that Guruji had initiated us into it via this recording. It seems like Guruji knew that we were supposed to do the Chandi Homam and would need this recording at a later time. It’s like when you are young you do not know why you need to learn math; only when we grow up do we realize the value of the exercise… The same happened here. We are so very grateful to Guruji for this and more… things that cannot be expressed in words” The value of this recording however came to be known by scores of devotees in the following years. This recording of Guruji’s Chandi recording, despite its noisy/primitive format, seemed to have a mystical power. People who played it in their homes, regularly and especially in the midst of some severe problems, seemed to have the dual benefit of peaceful acceptance and divine resolution. Numerous tapes were recorded and re-recorded and circulated widely as the power of this recording became evident. More recently, however, due to the diminished access of tapes and tape recorders, we felt that it was indeed necessary to digitize this precious recording and make it widely available via the Devipuram website(s). The recording was carefully digitized to preserve the original content in entirety. Then Mr. Nandakumar Nayar painstakingly cleaned up the recording, as best as he could, given the constraints of the poor quality of the original recording and our desire to preserve the authenticity of the voice itself. We are especially grateful for Mr. Nayar’s efforts in this regard. On this occasion of Vasant Navaratri in 2008, we offer this recording with the faith that it will bring Devi’s Divine Blessings to you and your loved ones every-where and every-time. Tathastu!

Shanti Mandir / Ashrams

What is Shanti Mandir?

Shanti Mandir is a worldwide community of people from all walks of life who have the common aspiration of experiencing divinity, knowing the Self and recognising the sacred in all. Established in 1987 by Mahamandaleshwar Swami Nityananda, it continues the spiritual work of his Guru, the renowned sage, Baba Muktananda whom he succeeded, continuing the lineage of Siddha Gurus, enlightened masters, immersed in consciousness. Shanti Mandir focuses on: Providing access to the teachings and practices of the great sages of India, in particular those of the lineage of Shaktipat Gurus represented by Swami Nityananda, Baba Muktananda and his Guru, Bhagwan Nityananda. Guiding seekers to the direct experience of divinity through Sanskrit chanting, silent meditation, study of sacred works, the offering of service and the participation in sacred rituals. Continuing the Vedic tradition – teaching the Vedic way of life and the philosophy of Vedanta, performing the ancient, sacred rituals and receiving other Saints of the tradition, sharing their knowledge and blessings. Through its Sanskrit school – Shanti Vidya Mandir, at the ashram in Magod, India – providing people with the opportunity to study and learn the language in which all the sacred texts of India were originally written – Sanskrit. Helping the impoverished in rural India with Eye Camps to restore sight to those blinded by cataracts, with the provision of a free medical procedure to implant intra-ocular lenses supplied by the Fred Hollows Foundation. Two of the three ashrams of Shanti Mandir – in Magod, India and in Walden, USA – are located in beautiful and serene natural settings while the third ashram – in Kankhal, India on the sacred river Ganges – is in a street full of old ashrams adjoining ancient temples and the revered pilgrimage centre of Haridwar at the foothills of the Himalayas. Each ashram provides an ideal environment for seekers to immerse themselves in a traditional way of spiritual life, as passed down from the ancient sages.

Chamundeswari Temple

Chamundeswari Temple

Chamundeswari Temple is located on the top of Chamundi Hills about 13 km from the palace city of Mysore in the state of Karnataka in India. The temple was named after Chamundeeswari or Durga, the fierce form of Shakti, a tutelary deity held in reverence for centuries by Mysore Maharajas.

Description

The original shrine is thought to have been built in the 12th century by Hoysala rulers while its tower was probably built by the Vijayanagar rulers of the 17th century. In 1659, a flight of one thousand steps was built leading up to the 3000 foot summit of the hill.^[1]

At the temple are several images of Nandi (the bull mount of Shiva). There is a huge granite Nandi on the 800th step on the hill in front of a small Shiva temple a short distance away. This Nandi is over 15 feet high, and 24 feet long and around its neck are exquisite bells.^[2]

The temple has a seven story tall ‘gopuram‘ decorated with intricate carvings. The idol of the Chamunda Devi is said to be made of solid gold and the temple gates are made of silver. ^[3]

Hanuman Temple in Nanganallur, Chennai

HANUMAN TEMPLE IN NANGANALLUR CHENNAI 

I must say most humbly that it is only due to Lord's grace [whether I am in Calcutta or Chennai], that my place of residence is near famous temples.

In Calcutta it is the Kali Temple at Kalighat about which I had sent an email earlier.

In Chennai it is the Hanuman Temple in Nanganallur.

My flat is located in the Guindy-Adambakkam area.  The Hanuman Temple is
a 10 minutes drive from my residence i.e. exactly 3.5 kms.  Since our
office is closed on 2nd and 4th Saturday and, of course, Sundays, I
usually visit the temple at least once a week.  It is incredible that this
temple can afford to distribute prasad in generous quantites during the
time it is open.  The temple is open from 5.00 AM in the morning till
12.00 PM in the afternoon and thereafter from  5.00 PM in the evening
till 9.00 PM. The prasad varies from time to time i.e. pongal (kichdi)
[made of rice and mung dal], sweet pongal [using jaggery], tamrind rice,
lemon rice etc.

The diety is lifelike and is exactly 32 feet high and made of a single
piece of black granite.  The eyes appear to be looking directly at
you.

Inside the temple you can buy a small bottle of ghee [clarified butter]
for Rs.10/- for pouring at a huge ghee lamp which burns continuously
emitting a pleasant fragrance.

The Nangnallur area is full of temples. There is a beautiful temple of
Godess Raja Rajeshwari, Guruvayurappan [Lord Narayana], Shiva-Parvati
Temple, Lakshmi Hayagreeva Temple, Godess Mariamman Temple
all within a distance of 2 kms. besides many other temples which I
am yet to visit.  

The copper steps leading to the sanctum-sanctorum of the Raja
Rajeshwari temple have yantras beneath them and are said to
convey immense benefits to those who climb these steps.  Please
do not skip steps while climbing.

Ramesh Iyer

Tantric Temples in Kerala

Tantric Temples in Kerala

Discussion Thread from Rudraksha Beads Societies Club (RBSC) in January 2008

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rudrakshabeadsocietiesclub

=================

Namaste Narasimhaye & Surya,

Adding my two pence with reference to the subject.
Nikhil has very well explained the Tantra tradition
behind most of the temples in Kerala. From my personal
experience the wordings in the link

http://www.1. cheeb.com/ photo4.html  

which says

""When a person enters into such a temple he is
actually entering in to this divine energy field. His
energy body and chakras will receive and absorb the
power and energy coming out from the deity in the
temple. Practically he takes a bath in the energy of
the deity. This will clean the energy body / aura of
the devotee and will also give similar vibration (that
of the diety) to the chakras of the devotee. This
vibrations can expel deceased energy and can charge
the aura with positive divine energy""

to be very true.

The energy levels can be felt very easily by anyone
visiting the temples (especially the Devi temples)
provided you maintain solitude for a few minutes
accompanied with calm and deep breathing.

It is recommended by elders to have a bath in the
temple tank or pond before having Darshan of the deity
while wearing a single piece of clothing. Also while
darshan the person has to be standing not directly in
front of the deity but at an angle( either on the
right or the left side of the deity ) as the charged
energy from the deity flows out in serpentine form and
assimilates with the devotees aura and thereby
starting the process of cleansing.

=============

Seeing the discussion on temples of Kerala, I thought
I'd add my bit here.

The structural construction rules as well as other
rules regarding pooja, procedures to be folowed etc
followed my most temples in Kerala have been laid out
by none other than PARASHURAMA. Lord Vishnu's avatar
before Shri Ram.

As the legend, goes, PARASHURAMA created Kerala by
reclaiming land from the sea, by throwing his axe.
Then he brought Bhramins from various parts of the
country and advised them to take care of the land and
gave them strict instructions on the procedures of
TANTRA.

These are very unique to Kerala Bhramins.. which again
proves the PARASHURAMA story. Also you may note that
the typical SHAIVA-VISHNAVA divide is absolutely
absent in Kerala. You will find Shiva, Vishnu and
Shakti Temples all over the place, and many times you
will find that both Shiva and Vishnu dieties are
installed in the same temples and people pray before
both with same respect.

REGARDS

Nikhil

==============

Namaskar Surya, I'm not familiar with Kerala but please have a look
at these links:

The architectural style of the temples in Kerala is different from
the other areas in India. The geographical features of the place
largely determine the temple style of a region. Kerala has rich
forest cover together with good monsoon showers thus resulting in
distinctive structures of the temples. The roofs of the temples are
steep and needlelike covered with copper sheets. The roofs of the
temples of Kerala are similar to the temples of the Himalayan regions
and the East Asia .

http://srichakravidhyapeedam.com/ 

-----------------

A form of Lord Siva called Vaidyanathan is also considered as a
healer. A number of people in Kerala who are suffering from Epilepsy
are getting miraculous cure by staying 12 days in the famous Siva
temple in Ettumanoor, Kottayam (dist) .

You can see hundreds of people who are getting out of mental diseases
like psychic attacks and possession by simply staying at
Chottanikkara Devi temple in Eranakulam Dist, without consuming
medicine or any other treatment.

Do you know how this happen?

Hindu temples in Kerala State ( India) are constructed in a special
way. Our temples are not prayer halls or meditation centers, but are
scientifically created energy centers.

Hindu temples in Kerala are built according to Thatchu Sastra - the
ancient Indian science of construction- and according to the Tantra
Sastra - Science of Tantra and Rituals-. The temple buildings are
constructed according to perfect mathematical equations. The size,
shape and other technical aspects of these will vary according to the
deities. After the completion of construction a deity will be placed
in these temples. The Thanthry (chief priest of Hindu temple) will
charge the deity with adequate energy& power by raising/ awakening
his Kundalini energy by following weeks of secret and elaborate
Tantric practices. Continues charging ( ie giving energy to the
diety ) of these deities will be performed by the priests 5 to 7
times a day by chanting mantras and also by performing Tantric
rituals -- Normally from 4 AM in the morning to 8.30PM evening--
every day. All these will keep the deity in the temple in a very
power full state.

Kottayam - The Land of Temples:

Temples there include Chirkkadavu Mahadeva Temple, Ettumanoor
Mahadeva Temple, Vaikom Mahadeva Temple, Thirunakkara Mahadeva
Temple, Kumaranelloor Devi Temple, Kiliroo Kathyani Temple and a
whole list of temples.
