ŚRI CAKRA NAVĀVARAṆA PŪJĀ VIDHIḤ
INTRODUCTION
She abides in Śrī Cakra. This is also known as Śrī Yantra and Cakra-rājā. This is the supreme
amongst all the yantra-s. Uttara bhāg (the chapter containing the benefits of recitation, also
known as phalaśruti) of Lalitā Triśatī elucidates Śrī Cakra in a comprehensive manner. Śrī
Cakra is the body of Śiva and Śaktī. Śrī Cakra is compared to a human body and Śiva and
Śaktī are compared to the soul within. Śrī Cakra is full of life and energy and should be
worshipped with great reverence. Any god or goddess can be worshipped in Śrī Cakra, as all
of them have a place in it.
Saundarya Laharī (verse 11) describes Śrī Cakra. “Your abode (Śrī Cakra) is made up of
nine mūlaprakṛti-s, the primary causative force of the universe, represented by the triangles in
Śrī Cakra. There are four Śiva triangles, the apex of which facing upwards and five Śaktī
triangles the apex of which facing downwards, the bindu, eight petal lotus, the sixteen petal
lotus and three circles with four entries thus counting forty four.”
In all Śrī Cakra has forty three triangles and the bindu. Apart from the triangles, there is an
eight petal lotus and a sixteen petal lotus. All the forty three triangles and the bindu are within
the two lotuses. Outside these two lotuses, there are three circular lines. Outside these
circular lines there are three squares with four entries from each side. This is the formation of
Śrī Cakra.
One has to enter the Śrī Cakra from the outermost square. All the three squares put together
is known as trailokaya-mohana that deludes the three stages of consciousness. This is the
first enclosure of Śrī Cakra. This enclosure is ruled by Tripurā Devi. Each āvaraṇa, known
as enclosure is ruled by a presiding deity and has an independent yogini. Yogini of the first
āvaraṇa is known as prakaṭa yogini. In the outermost walls there are ten goddesses
representing ten siddhi-s (super human powers), in the middle wall, there are aṣṭa māta-s
(eight devi-s like Brāhmī, Vārāhi, etc). Their spouses are the aṣṭa Bhairava-s (Asitāñga,
Ruru, etc). In the inner wall there are ten goddesses representing the ten mudra-s (hand
gestures) like, yoni mudra, trikhaṇḍā, etc. Therefore, in the first enclosure there are 10 + 8 +
10 = 28 goddesses. Entry into Śrī Cakra is to be made from the opening just below the apex
of the innermost triangle, facing the worshipper. After worshipping all the twenty eight
goddesses and after obtaining permission from them, one has to move to the next enclosure.
The second enclosure is known as sarvāśa-pari-pūraka that enlivens the spiritual hopes of the
practitioner. This enclosure is ruled by Tripureśī and the yogini for this enclosure is Gupta
yogini. The second enclosure is the sixteen petal lotus inside the three circles and no worship
takes place in the three circles. Each of the sixteen petals is ruled by a goddess and each petal
has one vowel of Sanskrit (Sanskrit has sixteen vowels). After worshipping these sixteen

goddesses and after obtaining permission from them, one has to proceed to the next
enclosure.
The third enclosure is known as sarva-saṁkṣobhaṇa that crusades for spiritual aspirations.
This is the eight petal lotus. The presiding deity of this enclosure is Tripurasundarī and the
yogini is Guptatara yogini. There are eight goddesses in each of the petals. After
worshipping them and after obtaining permission from them, one has to enter the first set of
triangles of Śrī Cakra.
The fourth enclosure is known as sarva-saubhāgya-dāyaka, which provides all spiritual and
material comforts. It has fourteen triangles and presided over by Tripuravāsinī. The
concerned yogini is Saṁpradāya yogini. Each petal is ruled by a goddess. After worshipping
them and after obtaining permission from them, one has to proceed to the next enclosure.
The fifth enclosure is known as sarvārtha-sādhaka, which makes the worshipper spiritually
prosper and has ten triangles. The presiding deity is Tripurāśrī and the concerned yogini is
kulottīrṇa-yogini. Each triangle is presided over by a goddess. After worshipping them and
after obtaining permission from them one has to proceed to the next covering.
The sixth āvaraṇa has again ten triangles and is known as sarva-rakṣākara cakra, which
protects the worshipper from the inflictions of saṃsāra. This enclosure is known as inner ten
triangles and the previous triangle is known as exterior ten triangles. This āvaraṇa is presided
over by Tripuramālinī and the yogini is Nigarbha Yogini. Each of the triangles is presided
over by a goddess. After worshipping them and after their permission, one has to proceed to
the next enclosure.
The seventh āvaraṇa is sarva-roga-hara cakra the remover of all mental afflictions. It has
eight triangles also known as vasu koṇa representing the eight vasu-s (according to
Bṛhadāraṇayaka Upaniṣad (III.ix.) aṣṭa vasu-s or eight Vasu-s are Āpa, the water; Dhruva, the
pole-star; Soma, the Moon; Dhava or Dhara; Anila, the Wind; Anala or Pāvaka, the fire;
Pratyusha, the dawn; and Prabhāsa, the light). The presiding deity is Tripurāsiddhā and the
yogini is Rahasya yogini. Each of the triangles is presided over by a Vāc Devi, the authors of
Lalitā Sahasranāma. Vāmakeśvarīmatam (verses 60-63) says that all the Sanskrit alphabets
are ruled by these eight Vāc Devi-s. Apart from what is said in the above Scripture, all the
triangles and lotus petals are inscribed with Sanskrit alphabets. This triangle is just outside
the inner most triangle. After worshipping these eight goddesses, one proceeds to worship
the armouries of Lalitāmbikā.
The eighth enclosure is just outside the central bindu which is the innermost triangle. This is
where the spiritual attainments begin and culminate at the bindu within. Outside this triangle,
the weaponries of Lalitāmbikā are placed. The weapons are described in Lalitā Sahasranāma
8, 9, 10 and 11. After worshipping Her weaponries, one enters the eighth enclosure, known as
sarva siddhi pradhā and is ruled by Tripurāmbā and the concerned yogini is Atirahasya
yogini. There are three goddesses who are worshipped at the three corners of the triangle and
Lalitāmbikā is worshipped at the central point, the bindu.

Outside this inner most triangle the fifteen tithi nitya devi-s are worshipped. Each tithi
represents one lunar day. One’s guru lineage is also worshipped in three parallel lines drawn
outside the upper portion of the inner most triangle. In this place, one’s guru, guru’s guru and
guru’s guru’s guru are worshipped. Along with them several celebrated gurus are also
worshipped. Worshipping guru is an important aspect of Śrī vidyā cult.
The ninth enclosure is the bindu. This is known as ‘sarvānanda-maya cakra’, the ultimate
bliss, where self unites with ever existing and omnipresent Self (the Brahman) here. This is
presided by Śrī Mahā Tripurasundarī also known through various other names such as
Lalitāmbikā, Rājarājeśvarī, Mahā Kāmeśvarī, etc who is the ultimate Goddess of this
universe, the Supreme Mother. The concerned yogini is Parāparāti rahasya yogini (Parāparāti
rahasya means the supreme secret). Beyond this point, those who are not initiated into ṣodaśī
cannot proceed. Those who are initiated into ṣodaśī are blessed to worship Her again at the
bindu with Her ultimate mantra and trikhanda mudra. This cakra or the enclosure or āvaraṇa
is the highly secretive in nature, where the conjugation of prakāśa and vimarśa (Śiva and
Śaktī) form of creation takes place. Here Śaktī sits on the left lap of Śiva and They together
shower Their grace on those who seek Them.
When a practitioner is afflicted with worldly ties, known as saṃsāra, enters Śrī Cakra, he is
gradually endowed with knowledge and by the time he reaches the supreme bindu, he is
totally transformed. The bindu stands for both creation and absorption. A practitioner stands
totally absorbed when he enters the bindu from the first āvaraṇa. If an absorbed practitioner
again indulges in saṃsāra, he is re-created making his exit from the bindu to the outermost
cakra.
Totally, one hundred and thirteen goddesses are worshipped in Śrī Cakra. Śrī Cakra is
enclosed by Śrī Nagara, where exists twenty five forts. In between the forts there are huge
places where all the other gods and goddesses reside. The nine coverings of Śrī Cakra are
compared to six psychical cakra-s beginning from mūlādhāra to ājñā, sahasrāra, kula
sahasrāra and akula sahasrāra. Śrī Cakra is not a mere geometrical representation of creation,
sustenance, dissolution, concealing and re-creation; it is the known expression of
evolutionary cosmology which is superimposed on a miniscule existence of a human being.
Scriptures point out that human body is just a replica of Śrī Cakra.

Procedures described here are not based on any particular krama (procedural steps) or
sampradāya (established doctrine). But major portion of this text is as per saṁhāra krama.
The idea of this text is only to explain in brief, general procedural aspects of Śri Cakra
Navāvaraṇa Pūjā.
It is important for all Śrī Vidyā upāsaka-s to abide by his or her Guru. In any matter related to
Śrī Vidyā worship, the dictums of Guru alone holds good, be it mantra or pūjā, etc. That is

why lineage or community (kula) is considered as very important in Śrī Vidyā cult, as the
method of worship differs from lineage to lineage and prescribed by sages and saints several
thousand years ago.

It is preferable to light four lamps, two before Her consecrated idol form (one on each side)
and two before consecrated Śri Cakra (one on either side of the maṇḍala). These lamps
should not be placed on the ground. There should be bases for these lamps. In the bases, an
inverted triangle should be drawn and the tips of the triangles should be facing the worshiper
(as shown in the image). To idol’s right, ghee should be used with white wick and to idol’s
left, sesame oil should be used with red wick (kumkum can be applied on white wick) for the
lamps. The same principle should be followed for Śri Cakra. Lamps are to be placed in such a
way, that they are not disturbed during pūjā. After reciting the following verse, flowers are to
be offered at the bottom of the lamps. Flowers should not be kept on the top of the lamps.

सं saṁ - derriere (can be contemplated mentally); कं kaṁ - right knee; laṁ ्ं – left knee; ह्रं
hrīṁ - navel.
After completing nyāsa-s, mūlamantra japa should be done. If one is initiated into Ṣoḍaśī,
only Ṣoḍaśī should be recited mentally.
19. Pātra sādanam पात्र सादनम ्
19.1) Requirements:
Pātra means vessels and sādana means arranging. Though there are several vessels used for
navāvaraṇa pūjā, three vessels viz. vardhanī kalaśa, sāmanya arghya and viśeṣa arghya are
considered as important. Out of the three, viśeṣārghya pātra is extremely important.
For performing navāvaraṇa pūjā the following materials are required.
1. Wooden plank or mat for seating. This is called āsana.
2. Ācamana pātra with uttaraṇi (spoon like). This vessel should be filled with water from a
bigger vessel, which is explained in 5 below. Ācamana procedure is explained under
tatvācamanam.
2. A few containers/bowls for keeping flowers. It would be ideal to procure different kinds of
flowers, at least nine types. Similarly, containers for keeping different kinds of fruits,
required for naivedya to be offered at the end of each āvaraṇa. If possible, it would be ideal to
use nine kinds of fragrant flowers and nine types of fruits meant for each āvaraṇa. Whenever
possible, different cooked items can also be prepared for naivedya.
3. Navāvaraṇa pūjā cannot be done individually, as it requires lot of preparations before and
during the pūjā. Once the performer is seated, he or she should not get up from the āsana.
Someone has to help the performer by arranging naivedya at the end of each āvaraṇa. If
naivedya can be prepared in the form of cooked items, more persons are required to prepare
these dishes. These dishes are to be prepared with pure mind and body. Unnecessary talks
must be avoided and instead, Lalitā Sahasranāma, Saundaryalaharī, Śrīdevī Māhātmya and
other hymns and verses should be recited in Her praise. These recitations will bring immense
www.manblunder.com
26
positive energy in the place. All preparations for naivedya should be done with pure and
devoted mind.
4. At the end of each āvaraṇa, dhūpa, dīpa, naivedya and nīrājana should be offered.
Necessary materials for performing dhūpa, dīpa and nīrājana are to be kept ready. Naivedya
has been discussed in 3 above. Dīpa and nīrājana can be done with wicks dipped in ghee.
There should be two dhūpa-s; one should be continuously burning and another one should be
used for offering dhūpa at the end of each āvaraṇa. Similarly, lamps on two sides of the
maṇḍala should be burning continuously and both ghee and sesame oil should be filled in the
lamp frequently, so that the lamps burn continuously.
5. A bigger vessel containing pure potable water is to be kept. Only from this, water for
vardhanī kalaśa, sāmanya arghya and viśeṣa arghya is to be taken. Iron and plastic containers
are to be totally avoided. It would be ideal to purify this water by reciting Gāytatrī mantra
twenty four times.
6. A medium sized vessel to prepare viśeṣa arghya. This vessel is known as kāraṇa kalaśa.
7. Vessels for vardhanī kalaśa, sāmanya arghya and viśeṣa arghya. For vardhanī kalaśa, a
uttaraṇi (this is like a small spoon, but with more depth to hold water and is always placed
inside pañcapātra). For sāmanya arghya, a conch with a base (ideally in the form of a tortoise)
is required. For viśeṣa arghya another pañcapātra, preferably in silver or copper is required. A
tweezer is also required and this tweezer should be either made of silver or copper. This is
meant to perform tarpaṇa. Instead of a tweezer, a thin silver rod is used with spikes on one
side and a very small uttaraṇi like structure which can hold one or two drops of viśeṣa arghya
can also be used.
8. Three or more very small silver or copper cups for Guru pātra, ātma pātra, and few extra
cups to distribute to other upāsaka-s. It is also advised that a separate pātra can be kept for the
spouse of the worshipper and this is generally known as patni pātra, provided, spouse is also
initiated into either Pañcadaśī or Ṣoḍaśī. (Spouse means either husband or wife – pati or
patnī)
9. Sandal paste and kumkum for decorating these vessels, lamps, etc. Whole rice grains
mixed with turmeric powder and a little water and this is known as akṣata or yellow rice
which symbolizes auspiciousness. Akṣata is also required during pūjā.
10. Powdered condiments like cardamom, cloves, saffron, edible camphor, etc. Though they
can be mixed with water straight away, it is better to get them powdered so that they can mix
well with water.
11. A few pieces of peeled ginger.
12. Ingredients to prepare viśeṣa arghya. There are different opinions on preparation of viśeṣa
arghya and almost every lineage has their own methods of preparing viśeṣa arghya. We go
with the simplest method, for which following ingredients are required. Milk (not boiled; it is
www.manblunder.com
27
better to use cow’s milk, if available), small quantity of tender coconut water, honey, saffron,
edible camphor, very small quantity of powdered sugar, finely powdered cardamom, clove,
maze and jātīpattrī (arillus of the nut or maca). All the condiments are to be nicely powdered
and mixed with milk, tender coconut water and honey. Consistency of this mixture should be
thicker than milk.
13. A copper plate to for bali. This is also known bali pātra.
14. An ārati plate with water by adding kumkum till the water turns red.
It is also advisable to keep pure water in a separate container to wash hands as and when
needed. Dry towels may be required to dry hands. If mantras are not memorised, provision
should be made to keep the printed copies in a comfortable position.
19.2) Arrangements:
Entry into pūjā maṇḍapa is explained in serial number 2. Inside this pūjā maṇḍapa, the
following arrangements are made.
Everything is to be arranged as indicted in the diagram below.
image 6
1. Kāmeśvara-kāmeśvarī idol, if available.
2. Śri Cakra/ Meru
3. Two lamps on either side. Lamps to the left of sādhaka should be lit with ghee (clarified
butter) and lamps to the right of sādhaka should be lit with sesame oil. Totally there will be
four lamps. All the four lamps should be placed on bases. One small additional lamp can be
kept separately to light dhūpa, dīpa and nīrājana. Base for this lamp is not a must.
4. This is the āsana. Sitting posture is very important. One should take the most comfortable
sitting posture. As far as possible, sādhaka should not change his sitting posture too
frequently. Ardhapadmāsana is the best sitting posture for performing navāvaraṇa pūjā.
5. Viśeṣa arghya pātra should be consecrated here on the prescribed base.
www.manblunder.com
28
6. Sāmanya arghya (conch) should be established here on the prescribed base.
7. Vardhanī kalaśa should be established here.
8. Ācamana pātra can be kept here (this vessel can be moved from this place).
9. Flower bowl can be kept here.
10. Other pūjā accessories such as bell, dhūpa, dīpa, nīrājana etc can be kept here.
11. Naivedya when needed can be kept here.
If idols of Ganeśa, Sun, Viṣṇu and Śiva are available, they can be kept in the places marked
A, B, C and D respectively in the image 9 above. This will be useful while performing
caturāyatana pūjā later.
19.4) Procedure for establishing vardhanī kalaśa:

image 8
4 उं सयशमण्ड्ाय नमौः॥ 4 uṁ sūryamaṇḍalāya namaḥ ||
After placing the vessel on the maṇḍala offer flowers to the vessel (not to be placed inside the
vessel). Now by closing the kalaśa with right palm recite the following mantra sixteen times.
4 मं सोममण्ड्ाय नमौः॥ maṁ somamaṇḍalāya namaḥ || (This is known as abhimantraṇa or

consecrating).
Without taking the right palm, recite the following mantra.

19.5) Procedure for establishing sāmānya arghya:
Similar maṇḍala is to be established again for sāmānya arghya. Establishing sāmānya arghya
requires a conch and a base as shown in the picture below, apart from the maṇḍala. On the
maṇḍala, base for the conch is placed (which is usually turtle shaped) and on this base, the
www.manblunder.com
30
conch is to be placed. This is called sāmānya arghya and this is marked as 7 in the previous
part.

4 sauḥ astrāya phaṭ | astraśakti śrīpādukāṁ pūjayāmi namaḥ ||
There are three * marks which represent south, west and north sides. In these three places,
without reciting any mantra place akṣata at these cardinal points. (I am not able to get
explanation as to why these three cardinal points are worshiped in silence. I believe that this
subtly represents the innermost triangle of Śri Cakra, hence worshiped without any mantra. If
someone knows about this, please write about this in comment section.)
19.5.b) Worshiping six inner triangles: (marked as 1 to 6 in red)
In 19.5.a, Bālā mantra was used. In this section, Saubhāgya Pañcadaśī is used.
1. 4 ऐं क ए ई ् ह्रं हृदयाय नमौः हृदयिष्कत श्रपादक

19.5.c) Worshiping inner most triangle and the bindu within: (marked as I to IV in red):
I. 4 ऐं क ए ई ् ह्रं नमौः 4 aiṁ ka e ī la hrīṁ namaḥ |
II. 4 क्रं ह स क ह ् ह्रं नमौः 4 klīṁ ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ namaḥ |

www.manblunder.com
32
4 aiṁ ka e ī la hrīṁ klīṁ ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ sauḥ sa ka la hrīṁ
(IV is to be repeated eight times with arcana on the bindu.)
19.5.d) Placement of conch and it’s placed on the maṇḍala.
Now take the tortoise shaped base and sprinkle it with water taken from vardhanī kalaśa by
reciting the following mantra.
4 astrāya phaṭ | 4 अपत्राय फट् |
Now the base is in the right hand of the sādhaka. After reciting the following mantra, place
this base on the maṇḍala meant for sāmānya arghya.
4 अं अष्ग्नमण्ड्ाय धमशरथ दि क्ात्मने श्र महाबत्रपुसुशन्दयाशौः सामान्य अघ्यश पात्राताधाराय नमौः
4 aṁ agnimaṇḍalāya dharmapratha daśa kalātmane śrī mahātripursundaryāḥ sāmānya arghya

pātrātādhārāya namaḥ |
Worshiping sāmānya arghya consists of three parts. First, the base consisting of a square,
three triangles and a bindu; second, the conch with its turtle shaped base; and three the water
within the conch. These three are considered as agni, sūrya and candra maṇḍala-s. The base
has already been worshiped through 19.5.a, b and c above. Now the turtle shaped base for the
conch and the conch itself are to be worshiped. Each of these maṇḍala-s have different kalā-s
and each of these kalā-s are individually worshiped. Details of individual kalā-s are given
while establishing viśeṣa arghya. Further, in order to shorten the duration, mantras for
worshiping individual kalā-s are not given here. A sādhaka can include worshiping of kalā-s
here, if he or she has enough time.
After placing tortoise shaped base on the maṇḍala, the base along with maṇḍala is to be
worshiped as below.
4 अष्ग्नं दतं वण
ृ रमहे होतारं ववश्वफ़ेदसं अपययज्पय सुक्रतुम रां ररं रूं रैं रौं रौः॥ रम्वरयं

rauṁ raḥ || ramalavarayūṁ agnimaṇḍalāya namaḥ ||
Now place flowers on both the maṇḍala, and the tortoise shaped base of the conch.
Now sprinkle (prokṣaṇa) on the conch by taking water from the vardhanī kalaśa by reciting
the following mantra.
4 astrāya phaṭ | 4 अपत्राय फट् |
www.manblunder.com
33
Now, take the conch and place it on the tortoise shaped base by reciting the following mantra.
4 उं सयश मण्ड्ाय अथशरद् द्वादिक्ात्मने श्र महाबत्रपुसुशन्दयाशौः सामान्य अघ्यश पात्राय नमौः॥
4 uṁ sūrya maṇḍalāya arthaprad dvādaśakalātmane śrī mahātripursundaryāḥ sāmānya arghya

pātrāya namaḥ ||
After placing the conch on the tortoise shaped base, apply sandal paste and kumkum on the
conch.
After decorating the conch as above, recite the following mantra and place flowers on the
conch (flowers should be placed outside the conch).
4 आसत्येन रजसा वतशमानो ननवेियन्न्मत

ृ ं मत्यचत च हहरण्ययेन पवैता रथेनादे वो यानत भुवना ववपश्यन॥
हां हरं हं हैं हौं हौः हम्वरयं सयशमण्ड्ाय नमौः॥
4 āsatyena rajasā vartamāno niveśayannmṛtaṁ martyaṁ ca hiraṇyayena svaitā rathenādevo

yāti bhuvanā vipaśyan || hāṁ hīṁ hūṁ haiṁ hauṁ haḥ | hamalavarayūṁ sūryamaṇḍalāya
namaḥ ||
Now, by using uttaraṇi take water from vardhanī kalaśa and by reciting the following mantra
fill the conch with water. Uttaraṇi should be held with the right hand thumb and ring finger.
4 मं सोम मण्ड्ाय कामरध र्षोडि क्ात्मने श्र महाबत्रपुसुशन्दयाशौः सामानग्यश अमत

ृ ाय नमौः
4 maṁ soma maṇḍalāya kāmapradha ṣoḍaśa kalātmane śrī mahātripursundaryāḥ sāmānargya

amṛtāya namaḥ |
Now using thumb and ring fingers add a few drops of milk-honey mix into the conch and
recite the following mantra and offer flowers to the conch at the end of recitation.
4 आप्तयायपव समेद ु ते ववश्वतौः सोमवष्ृ ठणयम भवावाजपय संगते॥ सां सरं सं सैं सौं सौः सम्वयचत
सोममण्ड्ाय नमौः॥
4 āpyāyasva samedu te viśvataḥ somavṛṣṇiyam | bhavāvājasya saṁgate || sāṁ sīṁ sūṁ saiṁ
sauṁ saḥ samalavaryūṁ somamaṇḍalāya namaḥ ||
Take a few drops of water from the conch (conch can be lifted by the left hand to pour water
into the right palm). By using the same mantras of 19.5.b (1 to 6) sprinkle this water on īśāna,
agni, nirṛti, vāyu, centre and eastern cardinals. (Few perform additional worship here by
mentally drawing a square and worship the six corners with ṣaḍaṅgapūjā).
By using avakuṇṭhana mudra (अवकुण्िन मुर) over the conch, recite the following
digbandhana mantra. In avakuṇṭhana mudra, by closing all the fingers of the right hand
except the index finger and with this extended index finger rotate clockwise over the conch
www.manblunder.com
34
and similarly using the left index finger rotate anticlockwise over the conch. Avakuṇṭhana
mudra is shown below.
image 12 image 13
भभव
ुश पसुवरोशमनत हदग्बन्धौः॥ bhūrbhuvassuvaromiti digbandhaḥ||
Now by using añjali, dhenu (image 16) and yoni mudras worship the conch.
By touching the conch with right fingers, recite mūlamantra seven times. Now take more
water from the conch into the right palm and sprinkle all over the pūjā articles. Add a few
drops of water from the conch into vardhanī kalaśa. Place the conch in its position. From this
point onwards, sāmanya arghya (conch) should not be moved till the end of navāvaraṇa pūjā.
20. Consecrating viśeṣa arghya:
Now draw maṇḍala as discussed in vardhanī kalaśa, which will be like this.
image 14
The diagram in the left is the one that is to be prepared as maṇḍala to keep viśeṣa arghya
pātra and its base. The diagram on the right will explain how this maṇḍala is to be
worshiped. After drawing this maṇḍala apply sandal and kumkum on the maṇḍala. Now,
arcana is to be done with flowers and akṣata as detailed below.
20.1.a) Worshiping outer square (marked 1 to 6)

www.manblunder.com
35





20.1.b) Worshiping six inner triangles: (marked as 1 to 6 in red) (Mantras are similar to
20.1.a above)






www.manblunder.com
36
20.1.c) Worshiping inner most triangle and the bindu within: (marked as I to IV):
I. 4 ऐं क ए ई ् ह्रं नमौः 4 aiṁ ka e ī la hrīṁ namaḥ |
II. 4 क्रं ह स क ह ् ह्रं नमौः 4 klīṁ ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ namaḥ |
III. 4 स ौः स क ् ह्रं नमौः 4 sauḥ sa ka la hrīṁ namaḥ |
IV. 4 ऐं क ए ई ् ह्रं क्रं ह स क ह ् ह्रं स ौः स क ् ह्रं नमौः
4 aiṁ ka e ī la hrīṁ klīṁ ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ sauḥ sa ka la hrīṁ
(IV is to be repeated eight times with arcana on the bindu.)
Take water from sāmānya arghya and sprinkle on the maṇḍala. As the conch cannot be
moved from its base, it should not be lifted. Water can be taken from the conch using small
uttaraṇi. Alternatively some water from sāmānya arghya can be poured into a small cup
(silver or copper) after digbandha. This is a better option, as generally it is not possible to
take water from the conch with uttaraṇi, as the mouth of the conch will be very narrow.
4 ऐं ह्ौःअपत्राय फट् 4 aiṁ hraḥ astrāya phaṭ |
Now show avakuṇṭhana mudra on the maṇḍala. This completes the consecration of maṇḍala.
20.2) Now take the empty viśeṣa arghya pātra’s base or ādhāra with right hand and place it on
the maṇḍala, by reciting this mantra.
4 ऐं क ए ई ् ह्रं अं अष्ग्नमण्ड्ाय धमशरथ दि क्ात्मने श्र महाबत्रपुसुशन्दयाशौः वविेि अघ्यश

पात्राताधाराय नमौः
4 aiṁ ka e ī la hrīṁ aṁ agnimaṇḍalāya dharmapratha daśa kalātmane śrī

mahātripursundaryāḥ viśeṣa arghya pātrātādhārāya namaḥ |
Offer flowers and akṣata to the ādhāra by reciting the following mantra.
4 अष्ग्नं दतं वण
ृ रमहे होतारं ववश्वफ़ेदसं अपययज्पय सुक्रतुम रां ररं रूं रैं रौं रौः॥ रम्वरयं

4 agniṁ dūtaṁ vṛṇīīmahe hotāraṁ viśvafedasaṁ | asyayajñasya sukratum | rāṁ rīṁ rūṁ raiṁ
rauṁ raḥ || ramalavarayūṁ agnimaṇḍalāya namaḥ ||
www.manblunder.com
37
This base or ādhāra is to be mentally divided into ten parts and each part is to be worshiped
with flowers and akṣata. These ten parts refer to ten kalā-s of agni.
i) 4 यं ध्ाधचशर्षे नमौः 4 yaṁ dhūmrārciṣe namaḥ
ii) 4 रं उठमायै नमौः 4 raṁ uṣmāyai namaḥ
iii) 4 ्ं ज्वश्न्यै नमौः 4 laṁ jvalinyai namaḥ
iv) 4 वं ज्वाश्न्यै नमौः 4 vaṁ jvālinyai namaḥ
v) 4 िं ववपफुश्ङ्धगन्यै नमौः 4 śaṁ visphuliṅginyai namaḥ
vi) 4 र्षं सुधश्यै नमौः 4 ṣaṁ suśriyai namaḥ
vii) 4 सं सुरूपायै नमौः 4 saṁ surūpāyai namaḥ
viii) 4 हं कवप्ायै नमौः 4 haṁ kapilāyai namaḥ
ix) 4 ळं हव्यवाहायै नमौः ḻaṁ havyavāhāyai namaḥ
x) 4 क्षं कव्यवाहायै नमौः kṣaṁ kavyavāhāyai namaḥ
Now, recite the following mantra and show avakuṇṭhana mudra on the pātra.
4 ऐं ह्ौःअपत्राय फट्
4 aiṁ hraḥ astrāya phaṭ |
20.3) Decorate viśeṣa arghya pātra with sandal paste and kumkum and place viśeṣa arghya
pātra on the ādhāra by reciting the following mantra.
4 क्रं ह स क ह ् ह्रं उं सयश मण्ड्ाय अथशरद द्वादिक्ात्मने श्र महाबत्रपुसुशन्दयाशौः वविेर्ष अघ्यश
पात्राय नमौः॥
4 uṁ klīṁ ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ sūrya maṇḍalāya arthaprada dvādaśakalātmane śrī

mahātripursundaryāḥ viśeṣa arghya pātrāya namaḥ ||
Now, after reciting the following mantra, place flowers outside the pātra in a scattered
manner or spread out manner.
4 ह्रं ऐं महा्क्ष्ममरश्वरर परमपवाशमनन ऊध्वशिन्यरवाहहनन सोमसयाशष्ग्न भक्षक्षणण परमाकाि भासरु े

Now sūrya maṇḍala is to be contemplated inside the viśeṣa arghya pātra. As a first step, sūrya
maṇḍala is worshiped. Viśeṣa arghya pātra is sūrya maṇḍala. Following mantra is to be
recited
4 आसत्येन रजसा वतशमानो ननवेियन्न्मत

ृ ं मत्यचत च हहरण्ययेन पवैता रथेनादे वो यानत भुवना ववपश्यन॥

yāti bhuvanā vipaśyan || hāṁ hīṁ hūṁ haiṁ hauṁ haḥ | hamalavarayūṁ sūryamaṇḍalāya
namaḥ ||
Sūrya maṇḍala has twelve kalā-s. These twelve kalā-s are to be worshiped now. While doing
this arcana, only akṣata is to be used as arcana is done within the viśeṣa arghya pātra.
i) 4 कं भं तवपन्यै नमौः 4 kaṁ bhaṁ tapinyai namaḥ

Suddhi saṁskāraḥ सुवद्ध संपकारौः (this is not followed in some traditions)
Draw a maṇḍala as shown in figure 18.
By reciting the following mantra, place on the maṇḍala, a small plate.
4 ॐ ह्रं ह्ौं नमौः शिवाय 4 om hrīṁ hrauṁ namaḥ śivāya
Keep on this plate the darvi (a small wooden ladle or wooden tweezers or the one shown in
figure 20), a ginger piece (only through which amṛta will be filled in viśeṣa arghya pātra from
kāraṇa kalaśa)
image 15
They (ginger and darvi) are placed here for the purpose of purification. Now by touching this
place with right hand, recite the following mantra eight times.
4 ॐ क्रं पिु हुं फट् 4 om klīṁ paśu huṁ phaṭ

20.5) Recite the following mantra before pouring nectar into viśeṣa arghya pātra.

4 sauḥ sa ka la hrīṁ soma maṇḍalāya kāmapradha ṣoḍaśa kalātmane śrī mahātripursundaryāḥ

viśeṣa argya amṛtāya namaḥ |
Now take a piece of peeled ginger and hold in the left hand with tattva mudra (joining thumb
and ring finger of the left hand is tattva mudra as shown in image 19). Now take kāraṇa
kalaśa in the right hand and pour amṛta (viśeṣa arghya) slowly through into the viśeṣa arghya
pātra. While doing so, we have to recite mentally all the alphabets of Sanskrit first in the
regular manner and next in reverse manner. That is, first we have to begin with अं and finish
at क्षं and then begin at क्षं and finish at अं (akārati kṣakārāntam). Akṣara-s shown here are
without bindu. Each of the following akṣara-s should be recited with bindu. For example अ
(a) becomes अं (aṁ) and क्ष (kṣa) becomes क्षं (kṣaṁ).
Image19
Fifty one alphabets of Sanskrit are as follows:
अ आ इ ई उ ऊ ऋ ॠ ऌ ॡ ए ऐ ओ औ अं अौः (16)

ya ra la va śa ṣa sa ha ḻa kṣa
Now the viśeṣa arghya is filled in the viśeṣa arghya pātra. Now the amṛta in the viśeṣa arghya
pātra is to be consecrated. Amṛta in the viśeṣa arghya pātra is soma maṇḍala.
Following mantra is to be recited and offer akṣata into the pātra at the end of the mantra. Rest
of the mantras in this part is for Sudhā Devi (सुधा दे वव), who presides over amṛta.
4 आप्तयायपव समेद ु ते ववश्वतौः सोमवष्ृ ठणयम भवावाजपय संगते॥ सां सरं सं सैं सौं सौः सम्वयचत

Now take pure honey in a small cup and have a small and pointed wooden spoon or silver
spoon. There are special instrument specially made for performing navāvaraṇa pūjā like the
one shown here. A drop of honey is to be transferred to viśeṣa arghya pātra by reciting the
following mantras. This worship is to amṛta inside the viśeṣa arghya pātra.
A B
image 16
Mantras here are the names of sixteen kalā-s (ṣoḍaśa kalā) candra maṇḍala. Amṛta inside the
viśeṣa arghya pātra is to be mentally divided into sixteen parts. In each of these mantras after
4 (om aiṁ hrīṁ śrīṁ), all the sixteen vowels of Sanskrit are prefixed. These arcana-s are to be
done with honey, using side A, which can hold only a drop of honey. The other side B is

meant for performing tarpaṇa. A ginger piece can be inserted here. The above piece can be
used instead of tweezers. It is important that arcana-s to be done in anticlockwise
manner.

After adding honey thus to the amṛta inside viśeṣa arghya pātra, the following mṛtyuṃjaya
mantra is to be repeated eight times.
ॐ जुंसौः पवाहा ॥ om juṁsaḥ svāhā ||
Now, repeat mūlamantra eight times.
www.manblunder.com
43
Now contemplate an inverted triangle with a bindu within, on the amṛta inside the viśeṣa
arghya pātra as shown below.
image 17
Now we have to write 51 alphabets with bindu (like aṁ āṁ) on the three corners of the
triangle as detailed below. Alphabets can be written using dharvi or they can be
contemplated.
1 – 2: अ आ इ ई उ ऊ ऋ ॠ ऌ ॡ ए ऐ ओ औ अं अौः (16)
a ā i īu ū ṛ ṝ ḷ ḹ e ai o au aṁ aḥ
2 – 3: क ख ग घ ङ च छ ज झ ञ ट ि ड ढ ण त (16)
ka kha ga gha ṅa ca cha ja jha ña ṭa ṭha ḍa ḍha ṇa ta
3 -1: थ द ध न प फ ब भ म य र ् व ि र्ष स (16)
tha da dha na pa pha ba bha ma ya ra la va śa ṣa sa
4 – हं haṁ; 5 – ळं ḻaṁ; 6 – क्षं kṣaṁ (51 alphabets end here); 7 – ईं īṁ (kāmakalā); 8 – हं haṁ; 9
– सौः saḥ. (7, 8, 9 are not counted for arriving 51 alphabets).
Similarly we have to write pañcadaśī mantra as described below:
At bindu marked as 7
4 ऐ क ए ई ् ह्रं ह स क ह ् ह्रं स क ् ह्रं नमौः
4 ka e ī la hrīṁ ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ sa ka la hrīṁ namaḥ

4 ऐ क ए ई ् ह्रं नमौः 4 ka e ī la hrīṁ namaḥ
Between 3 and 2

4 ह स क ह ् ह्रं नमौः 4 ha sa ka ha la hrīṁ namaḥ
Between 2 and 1
4 स क ् ह्रं नमौः 4 sa ka la hrīṁ namaḥ
Now draw a circle around this triangle (image 20) by reciting “haṁsaḥ” (हं सौः) and then draw
hexagon (ṣaṭkoṇa) as shown below (image 21).
image 18
The inner triangle has already been worshiped. Starting from the lower outer triangle, in
anticlockwise manner, we have to worship with Pañcadaśī mantra. If one finds writing
difficult, he/she can contemplate writing.
1. 4 क ए ई ् ह्रं हृदयाय नमौः हृदयिष्कत श्रपादक

4 ka e ī la hrīṁ hṛdayāya namaḥ | hṛdayaśakti śrīpādukāṁ pūjayāmi namaḥ ||

Now we have to invoke Sudhā Devi in our seven psychic centres – from mūlādhāra to just
below sahasrāra. mūlaṁ refers to the initiated mantra such as pañcadaśī, saubhāgya-
pañcadaśī or Ṣoḍaśī.
i) 4 म्ं पधृ थवर तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on mūlādhāra chakra)
4 mūlaṁ pṛthivī tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
ii) 4 म्ं आपौः तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on svādhiṣṭhāna chakra)
4 mūlaṁ āpaḥ tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
iii) 4 म्ं तेज तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on maṇipūraka chakra)
4 mūlaṁ teja tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
iv) 4 म्ं वायु तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on anāhata chakra)
4 mūlaṁ vāyu tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
v) 4 म्ं आकाि तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on viśuddhi chakra)
4 mūlaṁ ākāśa tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
vi) 4 म्ं मनस तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on ājñā chakra)
mūlaṁ manas tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
vii) 4 म्ं उन्मन तत्त्वम आवाहयाशम नमौः (contemplation on manas (mind) chakra. This is
just above ājñā chakra.)
4 mūlaṁ unmana tattvam āvāhayāmi namaḥ
Unmana means the Power of Paramaśiva which is ready to manifest. Literally it means
transcending mind. ājñā chakra refers to mind and unmana refers to transcending mind.
The following is to be recited in praise of Sudhā Devi
4 म्ं तां धचन्मयरं आनन्द्क्षणां अमत

ृ क्ि-वपशित हपतद्वयां रसन्नां दे वरं पजयाशम नमौः पवाहा॥
4 mūlaṁ tāṁ cinmayīṁ ānandalakṣaṇāṁ amṛtakalaśa-piśita hastadvayāṁ prasannāṁ devīṁ

pūjayāmi namaḥ svāhā ||
After reciting the above verse, take amṛta from viśeṣa arghya pātra in an uttaraṇi. Now raise
the uttaraṇi above the head by saying the following mantra.
www.manblunder.com
46
Each of the following mantras has a purpose and these mantras are classified under different
gender.
4 वर्षट् 4 vaṣaṭ (male; used for invocation, peace and prosperity)
By reciting the following mantra, pour back the amṛta into viśeṣa arghya pātra.
4 पवाहा 4 svāhā (female; destruction of sins and produces auspicious results)
Now, show avakuṇṭhana mudra to viśeṣa arghya pātra by saying the following mantra.
4 हुं 4 huṁ (female; infatuation)
Now, show dhenu mudra to viśeṣa arghya pātra by saying the following mantra.
4 व र्षट् 4 vauṣaṭ (gender not known; invitation)
Now, show astra mudra to viśeṣa arghya pātra by saying the following mantra.
4 फट् 4 phaṭ (male; destroying evil forces)
(astra mudra is clapping the left palm with index and middle fingers of the right palm. While
doing so, there should be enough sound.)
Now offer flowers to viśeṣa arghya pātra by reciting the following.
4 नमौः 4 namaḥ (eunuch; attraction)
Now, by reciting mūlamantra look at the viśeṣa arghya pātra, through gālinī mudra (open up
the left palm and hold the right palm with palm facing down. Now connect the left ring finger
with the right middle finger and left middle finger with right ring finger. Connect left thumb
with right little finger and vice versa. This is gālinī mudra.)
By reciting 4 ऐं 4 aiṁ worship Sudhā Devi in viśeṣa arghya pātra with yoni mudra.
Now recite mūlamantra seven times.
At this point, we have two options. In the first option, Sudhā Devi can be consecrated in
detailed manner and the mantra for this consecration is as per consecration of Śri Cakra
earlier. In the second option, by skipping the consecration procedure only invocation
procedure can be done, which is as follows. It would be ideal to use yellow coloured flowers
here.

(All the above are to be done separately).
Now worship Sudhā Devi with yoni mudra.
Now take a few drops of amṛta from viśeṣa arghya pātra and sprinkle on all the pūjā articles.
Wash and dry the hands. Recite 16 times mūlamantra.

(This mantra consists of five parts; three of these are represented by Bālā mantra, fourth one
by prasādaparā mantra and the fifth one by parāprasāda mantra).
With this consecration of viśeṣa arghya is concluded. Once this procedure is done, sādhaka
has to bring in two or three small cups. When it is two cups, they refer to Guru pātra and ātma
pātra. When three pātra-s are placed, third one is known as patnī pātra, meant for the wife of
the sādhaka, provided she is also initiated either into Pañcadaśī or Ṣoḍaśī by the same Guru.
These pātra-s should be preferably in silver. These pātra-s should be kept to the right side of
viśeṣa arghya pātra. Next to viśeṣa arghya pātra is Guru pātra, next to this is ātma pātra. If
there is going to be patnī pātra, this should be kept next to ātma pātra. Guru pātra and ātma
pātra are to be placed on a maṇḍala drawn like this using sāmānya arghya and these maṇḍala-
s are to be worshiped with initiated mūla mantra (either Pañcadaśī or Ṣoḍaśī).

These three pātra-s should be purified by sprinkling water from vardhanī kalaśa.
Now using an uttaraṇi, transfer one uttaraṇi of viśeṣa arghya to Guru pātra after reciting each
of the following mantas. Thus there will be three transfers from viśeṣa arghya pātra to Guru
pātra.
i). Parameṣṭhiguru:
ु ां
Transfer one uttaraṇi of viśeṣa arghya to Guru pātra.
ii). Paramaguru

cccc śrīpādukāṁ pūjayāmi (tarpayāmi) namaḥ ||
Transfer another uttaraṇi of viśeṣa arghya to Guru pātra.
aaaa should be replaced with one’s Parameṣṭhiguru’s nāma.
bbbb should be replaced with one’s Paramaguru’s nāma.
cccc should be replaced with one’s Śrīguru’s nāma.
There are variations in the order. First, Śrīguru, then Paramaguru and finally Parameṣṭhiguru
is worshiped.
At the end of Guru Maṇḍala

(Beginning from Lord Sadāśiva, through Śaṁkarācārya and up to my Guru, I pay my

obeisance to all the Gurus)
i) Recite mūlamantra three times.
ii) Recite the following mantra. During recitation one has to contemplate cidagni maṇḍala in
his heart and this contemplation is known viraja homa.
4 कुण्डश्न्यधधष्ठित धचदष्ग्न मण्ड्ाय नमौः
4 kuṇḍalinyadhiṣṭhita cidagni maṇḍalāya namaḥ |
iii) Recite the following mantras.

4 म्ं अधमचत जुहोशम व र्षट् 4 mūlaṁ adharmaṁ* juhomi vauṣaṭ |
(* Another version says ‘4 mūlaṁ sarvadharmaṁ juhomi vauṣaṭ’)
iii) Recite the following mantra. While reciting this mantra, contemplate on what has been
explained previously viz. surrender every aspect of our individuality.......
4 इतौः पवचत राण-बवु द्ध-दे ह-धमाशधधकारतौः जाग्रत-पवप्तन-सर्ष

(Now it is assumed that all those referred by * have been offered into the perpetual fire of
Kuṇḍalinī. This is considered as pūrṇāhutī (पणाशहुतर) mantra, which signifies end of all
oblations.)
iv) Recite mūlamantra three times.
v) Now, recite the following mantra.
4 आरचत ज्व्नत ज्योनतरहमष्पम ज्योनतज्वश्नत ब्रह्स्ख्माहमष्पम योऽहमष्पम ब्रह्स्ख्माहमष्पम अहमष्पम

ब्रह्स्ख्माहमष्पम अहमेवाहं मां जुहोशम पवाहा॥
4 ārdraṁ jvalati jyotirahamasmi jyotirjvalati brahmāhamasmi | yo'hamasmi brahmāhamasmi |

ahamasmi brahmāhamasmi | ahamevāhaṁ māṁ juhomi svāhā ||
Now, consume viśeṣa arghya, wash the cup and keep this in its original place. Patnī pātra
need not be kept again in the same place. This can be washed and taken away. This is
required again towards the end of navāvaraṇa pūjā.
Now add a few drops of viśeṣa arghya into kāraṇa kalaśa (in whihch viśeṣa arghya was
prepared and the balance kept in this kalaśa). Similarly, add a few drops of viśeṣa arghya to
sāmānya arghya (conch). It is to be remembered that viśeṣa arghya and sāmānya arghya
should not be shaken or moved from their respective places.
www.manblunder.com
57
It is to be remembered that one should not get from his/her seat once nyāsa-s are done. Under
exceptional circumstances, the sādhaka can leave his/her seat now, as later there is no
provision at all to leave the seat. One can leave the seat after seeking approval from his/her
Guru. If Guru is not personally present and if one has to leave his/her seat, then mūlamantra
with all nyāsa-s should be performed 108 times. After performing mūlamantra japa, recite
pādukā and then continue navāvaraṇa pūjā. After taking seat again, one has to again do
tatvācamanam (described in part 1).
This completes consecration procedure of viśeṣa arghya.

Now place the flowers now being held in trikhaṇḍā in the centre of Śri Cakra. Now the
Divine Couple are seated in Śri Cakra. If they are contemplated well within and properly
invited to be seated in the midst of Śri Cakra, at the time of taking Their seat, subtle
resonances can be felt in the maṇḍala where Śri Cakra is kept.

In order to pay our respects first, we are now showing some mudras to them and these mudras
are known as āvāhana mudras. These mudras are used to stabilise our invocation. For each of
the following mantras, there are mudras. 4 is to be added before each of these mantras.
4 आवाहहता भव 4 संपथावपता भव 4 सष्न्नधावपता भव 4 सष्न्नरुद्धा भव 4 सम्मुखर भव 4

Having thus established Them, now we have to do 64 types of upacāra-s to Them. Upacāra
can be explained as attendance with reverence. Sixty four types of upacāra-s is known as
chatuḥ-ṣaṣṭyupacāra. This is referred in Lalitā Sahasranāma (235) as “chatuḥ-
ṣaṣṭyupacārāḍhyā”. Sixty four upacāra-s is a long and time consuming procedure. If time is a
constraint, then these sixty four upacāra-s are curtailed to either five or sixteen. Five types of
upacāra-s are known as pañca- upacāra-s and sixteen types of upacāra-s are known as ṣoḍaśa-
upacāra-s.
22.4) Chatuḥ-ṣaṣṭyupacāra
Following is chatuḥ-ṣaṣṭyupacāra (64 upacāra-s). om aiṁ hrīṁ śrīṁ (ॐ ऐं ह्रं श्रं) (4) are to be
prefixed to each upacāra.
Example: The portion marked as ------ each of the upacāra-s mentioned below is to be filled.
om aiṁ hrīṁ śrīṁ śrī lalitāyai -------- kalpayāmi namaḥ |
ॐ ऐं ह्रं श्रं श्र्श्तायै -------- कल्पयाशम नमौः
For example 1 is be recited like this.
1. ॐ ऐं ह्रं श्रं श्र श्र्श्तायै पाद्यं कल्पयशम नमौः
om aiṁ hrīṁ śrīṁ śrī lalitāyai pādyaṁ kalpayami namaḥ |
(offering water for washing hands and feet; in 64 upacāra-s ācamana is also included here)
2. आभरणावरोपणं ābharaṇāvaropaṇaṁ (removing Her jewels)
3. सुगष्न्धतै् अभ्द्यङ्गं sugandhitaila abhyaṅgaṁ (applying aroma oil on Her)
4. मञ्जनिा्ारवेिनं mañjanaśālāpraveśanaṁ (entering into the place where She is going to be

22.4.55) मङ्गलरात्रत्रकम ् Maṅgalarātrikam
(This has already been discussed under 55 above. Now, relevant mantras and procedures are
being discussed.)
www.manblunder.com
66
A copper or silver plate, rice or wheat flour, milk, nine wicks, ghee and camphor are
required. Mix flour with milk and sugar and make dough. Using the dough prepare nine
triangle shaped lamps and make enough dough to make one more lamp for kuladīpa which
will be discussed under serial number 43. They should be designed in such a way that there is
some space available to pour few drops of ghee in the middle. These lamps should be
arranged like eight petal lotus and the ninth lamp should be placed in the centre. When two
opposite lamps are joined together, it will appear like a damuru. Thus there will be four
damuru-s forming eight triangles and the ninth is the centre. There are other variations in this
arrangement. Now, the wicks are to be dipped in ghee and smeared with camphor at the tip of
the wicks. In the space available in each of these lamps for ghee, a few drops of ghee are to
be poured and wicks are lit. It is to be ensured that all the nine lamps burn simultaneously and
with the same kind of flame. When the lamps are lit, “ह्रं hrīṁ” is to be recited. This should be
recited while lighting all the nine lamps.
image 20
Now, by touching (abhimantraṇa) the plate, recite the following mantra which is known as
navākṣarī ratneśvarī mantra (नवाक्षरर रत्नेश्वरर).
4 śrīṁ hrīṁ glūṁ slūṁ mlūṁ plūṁ nlūṁ hrīṁ śrīṁ
4 श्रं ह्रं ग््ं प्ं म््ं प्त्ं न््ं ह्रं श्रं
After completing the recitation, show chakra mudra to the lamps.
Now recite mūlamantra by touching the plate (abhimantraṇa means abhi-mantraṇa-mantra;

making anything sacred by a special formula or consecrating). Now take the plate and rotate
clockwise nine times in front of (like dipārādhana) Kāmeśvarā and Kāmeśvarī (if idols are
available) and Śri Cakra by reciting two mantras. First mantra is the first verse of Durgā
Sūktaṁ.

After having done this, we have to place the lamp to our right.
23) चतुरायतन पूजा Caturāyatana Pūjā
Pūjayāmi and Tarpayāmi:
This is the most significant aspect of navāvaraṇa pūjā. Hereafter, at the end of every mantra
pūjanaṁ and tarpaṇaṁ are to be done. Flowers are to be taken in the left hand. In the right
hand, tweezers is to be taken with a piece of ginger held between the tweezers. At the time of
saying pūjayāmi flowers from the left hand are to be placed. At the time of saying tarpayāmi,
the ginger piece is to be dipped into viśeṣa arghya using the tweezers and a drop of viśeṣa
arghya is to be offered in the same place where flowers are placed. This is further explained
in Gaṇeśa pūjā.
23.1) Gaṇeśa pūjā.
i) Gaṇeśa āvahana:

need of 14 sets comprising of 4 (caturāyatana pūjā) + 9 (for nine āvaraṇa –s) + 1 (after
completing pūjā for all the nine āvaraṇa –s; this is the main one) dhūpa , dipārādhana,
naivedya and nīrājana; necessary materials should have been kept ready).

which is used here refers to sun god. Mārtaṇḍa also signifies numeric twelve and therefore
could possibly refer twelve Āditya-s)
ii) Sūrya mūlamantra:

image 21
Fifteen nityādevī-s are worshiped outside the innermost triangle. Mahānityādevī and the
nityādevī presiding over the particular day are worshiped in the bindu. Each of these
nityādevī-s have mantras, yantras, āvaraṇa devi-s, arcana, etc.
To begin with, Mahānityādevī is to be worshiped in the bindu and pūjanaṁ and tarpaṇaṁ
should be made three times.
4 - म्ं अौः श्र ्श्तामहाननत्या श्र पादक

4 - mūlaṁ | aḥ śrī lalitāmahānityā śrī pādukāṁ pūjayāmi tarpayāmi namaḥ ||
This should be followed by pūjanaṁ and tarpaṇaṁ for three times for the nityādevī presiding
over the particular day in which navāvaraṇa pūjā is performed. Let us take an example of
fifth lunar day of śuklapakṣa (waxing moon), which is known as pañcamī tithi and śuklapakṣa
pañcamī tithi is presided over by Vahnivāsinī nityādevī. She is posited in the above image
(image 24) in the place marked as 5. The same nityādevī viz. Vahnivāsinī nityādevī is
worshiped in the same place during kṛṣṇapakṣa (waning moon) pañcamī tithi; the only
difference is that she is worshiped as the fifth nityādevī during śuklapakṣa pañcamī and as the
eleventh nityādevī during kṛṣṇapakṣa pañcamī. All the nityādevī-s continue to exist in the
same place with the same bījākṣara-s. This also signifies the expansion of kalā-s during
śuklapakṣa and contraction of kalā-s during kṛṣṇapakṣa.

Bījākṣara-s and the names of tithi nityādevī-s are given here. While performing pūjanaṁ and
tarpaṇaṁ, 4 is to be prefixed and nityā and śrī pādukāṁ pūjayāmi tarpāmi namaḥ is to be
suffixed. Following is the example.

understanding, this āvaraṇa is divided into two parts. Part a is about worshipping weaponries

36. षड्दर्शनाद्वद्या॥ ṣaḍdarśnavidyā ||
There are six types of darśana-s. Darśana refers to philosophical doctrines, understanding and
perceiving Brahman through various methods. Darśana literally means ‘vision and nature of
reality’. Though Brahman is One, paths to realize Him are different. Contextually, Brahman
here refers to Parāśakti. A particular path is chosen through lineages and sudden spiritual
impetus. It is like approaching a particular destination through different routes. Six
www.manblunder.com
111
religious/spiritual paths discussed below lead to the realization of Citśakti (Supreme

Consciousness of Śiva) – Baudha (Buddhism), Vaidika (Vedas), Saura (worshipping the sun),
Vaiṣṇava (worshipping Viṣṇu), Śaiva (worshipping Śiva) and Śākta (worship of Śakti). It is
important to note that Śri Cakra navāvaraṇa pūjā encompasses all these six darśana-s and this
is conveyed through ṣaḍdarśnavidyā, which is performed here to make worshipers understand
that all types of worship lead to Brahman and that they should not undermine or discriminate
one path or the other.
This part contains six mantras and both pūjā and tarpaṇa are to be done at the Bindu.

Those who have time can do Lalitā Sahasranāma and Lalitā Triśatī arcana here. If flowers are
not available, arcana can be done with kumkum. Instead of arcana, pārāyaṇa can also be
done. It is important that after Lalitā Triśatī no further arcane or pārāyaṇa should be done.
After Lalitā Triśatī we should proceed with dhūpa, dīpa, etc.

42. महानैवेद्यम ् mahānaivedyam:
1. Procedure:
Even at this point of time, both sāmānya arghya and viśeṣa arghya vessels should not be
disturbed. Therefore, while placing the offerings for naivedya, adequate care should be taken.
A square is to be drawn to the left of the sādhaka (right side of Devi), with water from
sāmānya arghya using an uttaraṇi. Above this square, place a plank and sprinkle water from
vardhanī kalaśa on the plank and then place the offerings on the plank. After having placed
all the offerings on the plank, prokṣaṇa (sprinkling) is to be done using all the three arghya-s,
vardhanī kalaśa, sāmānya arghya and viśeṣa arghya.
After prokṣaṇa, there is a four step process for purifying and consecrating the offerings. They
are nirīkṣaṇa (purification by looks), prokṣaṇa (purification through sprinkling), mudra-
pradarśana (purification through finger gestures) and doṣanirasana (eliminating impurities
arising out of touching and smelling the offerings while preparing them).
www.manblunder.com
120
2. Mantras:
i) By reciting mūla mantra, look at naivedya and touch all the vessels wherein offerings are
kept.
ii) Take arghya from sāmānya arghya pātra in the right palm and do prokṣaṇa on the offerings
by saying “4 ऐं ह्ौः - 4 aiṁ hraḥ”.
iii) Again take arghya from sāmānya arghya pātra in right palm and recite mūla mantra seven
times by continuing to hold sāmānya arghya in the right palm. After completing the seventh
repetition, do prokṣaṇa on the offerings by reciting “4 ॐ जंु सौः व र्षट् – 4 om juṁ saḥ vauṣaṭ
(this mantra is part of mṛtyuñjaya mantra). After sprinkling arghya thus, show chakra mudra
(image 36). During this process, abhimantrita arghya turns into nectar for longevity.
image 33
iv) Now three bīja-s of pañcabhūta are going to be used for further purification of naivedya.
a. Keep the left palm facing down and rotate clockwise seven times over naivedya by reciting
vāyju bīja ‘4 वं – 4 vaṁ’. This is done with the intent of removing doṣa-s, if any. Such doṣa-s
are dried up by vāyju bīja.
b. Repeat the above process with right hand by reciting agni bīja ‘4 रं – 4 raṁ’. If any doṣa-s
still persist, they are removed by agni bīja.
c. Recite amṛta bīja ‘4 वं – 4 vaṁ’ and show dhenu mudra (image 37). During this process
we have to contemplate that amṛta (nectar of immortality) is being showered on naivedya.
image 34
v) We have kept viśeṣa arghya in a separate vessel for offering as naivedya. Now this is to be
consecrated. Take viśeṣa arghya from the viśeṣa arghya pātra in right palm. Do prokṣaṇa
three times on viśeṣa arghya kept for naivedya.
www.manblunder.com
121
vi) Now by touching the vessel containing viśeṣa arghya kept for naivedya, recite mūla
mantra seven times.

rendering songs in Her praise. Apart from the above, generally cāmaraṁ is used for fanning
Her during the above recitations. Veda recitations should not be done, unless one is very
conversant with Veda recitations.

Bali pātrā was already established during mahānaivedya. Now worship the base (maṇḍala, on
which a plank was placed) with flowers and akṣata with the following mantra.
www.manblunder.com
131
4 - ऐं व्यापकमण्ड्ाय नमौः 4 - aiṁ vyāpakamaṇḍalāya namaḥ |
Procedure:
Take water from vardhanī kalaśa in uttaraṇi using right hand. Form tattva mudra (connecting
left ring finger and the thumb) and pour the water from the uttaraṇi through tattva mudra
(shown here) on the contents of bali pātrā. After doing this place the uttaraṇi back in the
vardhanī kalaśa. Now clap using both the hands three times. Now look up and show bāṇa
mundra (bāṇa means arrow). There are two types of bāṇa mudra. One is to use both the hands
as if we are releasing an arrow from a bow. Alternatively, avakuṇṭha mudra using right hand
can be shown.
image 36
Recite the following manra three times.
4- ॐ ह्रं सवशववघ्नकृद्भ्द्यौः सवशभतेभ्द्यो हुं फट् पवाहा
4 - om hrīṁ sarvavighnakṛdbhyaḥ sarvabhūtebhyo huṁ phaṭ svāhā |
Move the bali pātrā along with the contents towards nirṛti cardinal and then remove from
there. Sprinkle water on that place.
After doing balidāna, do ācamana (part 1 -3) and bhūtaśuddhi (part 4 – 14). If the worshipper
himself removes the bali pātrā, then he should wash his/her feet and after resuming his seat,
ācamana and bhūtaśuddhi should be done.
49. जपः japaḥ:
Now do japa with initiated mantras.
50. गुरु वन्दनम ् Guru vandanam:
This is offering our respects to our Guru, who has initiated mantras. Only few lineages do this
worship here. Some traditions treat this section by reciting verses in Her praise apart from
including verses in praise of Guru. Not only the Guru, but also Paramaguru and
Parameṣṭhiguru (Gurytraya) are worshiped in this section.
Following verses are recited.

51. सुवाशसनी पूजा suvāsinī pūjā:
Procedure:
1) Invite suvāsinī and offer her a seat. She should wash her feet thoroughly before taking the
seat offered. If suvāsinī is not initiated into Śrī Vidyā, Bhuvaneśvarī mantra and Bālā mantra
should be initiated to her through a simple initiation procedure. Recite Bhuvaneśvarī mantra
followed by Bālā mantra (om hrīṁ followed by om aiṁ klīṁ sauḥ - ॐ ह्रं followed by ॐ ऐं
क्रं स ौः) and ask her to repeat. The purpose of this initiation is that viṣeśa arghya is generally
not given to those who are not initiated into Śrī Vidyā (at this point of time). Secondly,
worshiping a suvāsinī means worshiping Lalitāmbikā and it is expected that such a suvāsinī is
a devotee of Lalitāmbikā. If Bhuvaneśvarī and Bālā mantras are initiated, it means that the
suvāsinī is initiated into Śrī Vidyā cult.
2) Wash the feet (pādaprakṣālana) of suvāsinī, first with water followed by milk and again by
water and dry her feet with a towel. For this purpose, a plate is used to keep her feet. At the
end of pādaprakṣālana, this plate is removed and replaced with a plank to enable her to keep
her feet on the plank. Now apply turmeric paste to her feet (this is known as nalaṅgu), place
kumkum on both the feet followed by offering akṣata and flowers.
3) Then a new saree with blouse (top) is given. (Generally, suvāsin-s are decided much
earlier and blouse pieces and sarees are given to them in advance, so that they can wear the
clothes offered to them and attend the function.)

4) Now recite the following mantra and offer viṣeśa arghya to her in a small cup called
alipātra (like ātmapātra). While receiving alipātra, she should receive the cup in her left hand
using only the thumb, index and ring fingers (this appears like a tripod). This mantra is to be
addressed to her.
अश्पात्रं इदं तुभ्द्यं दरयते वपशिताष्न्वतम
पवरकृत्य सुभगे दे वव यिो दे हह ररपन दह॥
alipātraṁ idaṁ tubhyaṁ dīyate piśitānvitam |
svīkṛtya subhage devi yaśo dehi ripūn daha ||
(O! The auspicious one! This cup containing nectar (viṣeśa arghya) is given to you. Please
drink this nectar and bless us to overcome our desire, anger and other afflictions and lead us
to a happy and reputed life.)
Now worship her with yoni mudra.
5) Suvāsinī after receiving alipātra in her left hand as described above, should join the thumb,
index and ring fingers (exactly in the same way as explained above, but with the right hand
here) and take a few drops of viṣeśa arghya from alipātra and should place the drops on her
head twice. These drops are meant for her Guru (if she is not initiated into Śrī Vidyā, then
these drops are meant for Śiva). If she is initiated into Śrī Vidyā, she should recite her Guru
pādukā mantra. After doing this, she has to drink a portion of viṣeśa arghya and returns
alipātra with viṣeśa arghya back to the sādhaka with the following mantra. If she does not
know the mantra, someone who knows the mantra can recite the mantra on her behalf.
वत्स तुभ्द्यं मया दत्तं परतिेर्षं कु्ामत

ृ म
त्वच्छत्रन संहररठयाशम तवाभरठटं ददाम्यहम॥
vatsa tubhyaṁ mayā dattaṁ pītaśeṣaṁ kulāmṛtam |
tvacchatrūn saṁhariṣyāmi tavābhīṣṭaṁ dadāmyaham ||
(Suvāsinī, who is the embodiment of Lalitāmbikā grants the wishes of the sādhaka and gives
back the balance of viṣeśa arghya as prasāda to him/her).
After having given the alipātra with remaining viṣeśa arghya (this is known as ucchiṣṭa,
meaning remains of the food), she shows yoni mudra to the sādhaka.
6) Now the sādhaka has to do ṣoḍaśa upacāra to the suvāsinī thus.

Now, prostrate before the suvāsini and take her blessings. Suvāsini is to be sent-off with great
respect. Few perform dhampati pūjā instead of suvāsini. In dhampati pūjā, both husband and
wife are to be worshiped. They are worshiped as Pārvatī and Parameśvara. In suvāsini pūjā it
is preferable to seek the blessings of an elderly woman. Similarly in the case of dhampati
pūjā, it is preferable to invite elderly couple/s. After suvāsini pūjā and or dhampati pūjā,
kumārī pūjā is to be done.
52. कुमारी पूजनम ् kumārī pūjanam:
This is about worshipping girls who have not attained puberty and their age should be
between two years and ten years.
Procedure:
As in the case of suvāsinī pūjā, girls who are invited for this pūjā are informed in advance
and dress material is given to them so as to enable them to make them ready for wearing on
the day of the pūjā. On the day of pūjā, when the invited girl arrives (generally with her
mother, who can be treated as suvāsinī), after welcoming her, she should be requested to
wash her feet. A wooden plank is offered for her to sit. Now the pūjā begins.
1. Take flowers and akṣata and recite the following mantra for the purpose of āvāhana.
अठटद्ोपरर कुमाररं समावेिय

Further reading - kumārī pūjā during navarātrī:
53. सामतयका पूजा sāmayikā pūjā:
If Guru of the sādhaka is present in the place, he should be offered with sandal paste, flowers,
etc and he should be offered viṣeśa arghya in Guru pātra, which is kept in pūjā maṇḍala.
While offering viṣeśa arghya to Guru, viṣeśa arghya should be worshiped with Guru pādukā
mantras given by him. Guru will return the pātra after consuming the viṣeśa arghya. In case
Guru is not present personally during navāvaraṇa pūjā, sādhaka should take viṣeśa arghya
from kāraṇa kalaśa and pour into his ātmapātra and keep it on his head and recite Guru
pādukā mantras and consume viṣeśa arghya after reciting mantras given in the following
section.
After doing this, sāmayika-s present should be offered sandal paste, flowers, etc and fill their
ātmapātra-s with viṣeśa arghya along with a piece of ginger and offer their respective pātra-s
to them. On receiving their respective ātmapātra-s, they will perform mental worship with the
following mantras or as instructed by their Gurus. This worship is known as tattvaśodhanam,
which is described in the next section.
54. तत्त्वशोधनम ् tattvaśodhanam:
Those who have received their ātmapātra-s filled with viṣeśa arghya do the following.
Sādhaka should also follow this procedure before consuming viṣeśa arghya from his
ātmapātra.

iv.b) For those initiated into Ṣoḍaśī. This mantra says “That (the Brahman) is infinite and this
(universe) is infinite. The infinite proceeds from infinite. Then, taking the infinitude of the
infinite (universe), it remains as the infinite (the Brahman) alone.”
4 - म्ं - पणशमदौः पण्नशमदम पणाशत्पणशमुदच्यते पणशपय पणशमादाय पणशमेवावशिठयते॥

After reciting this mantra, both sādhaka and sāmayika-s who are holding the viṣeśa arghya
pātra with viṣeśa arghya in their right palm using thumb, middle and ring fingers, should now
consume the viṣeśa arghya.

Now wash the ātmapātra and keep it back in the maṇḍala. Sāmayika-s also should wash their
ātmapātra-s and take them back.
55. दे वतोद्वासनम ् devatodvāsanam:
This is the combination of two words devatā and udvāsanam, where devatā refers to Śiva,
Śakti and all the gods and goddesses who were worshiped in Śri Cakra and udvāsana means
the act of taking away. It is to be recalled that we have enthroned all of them using our subtle
prāṇa. During external worship, the Self within is brought out and worshiped externally and
once the external worship is done, the Self in the idols should be brought back within, again
using our prāṇa and this is called udvāsanam. For this purpose, the process done in 22.1 is to
be reversed. In addition to this, one has to use kecarī mudra to bring Them back to
daharākāśa.
