Re: chandas
Tantrika/Pauranika mantras dont conform to the chandas. In fact Gayatri mantra itself is a modified form(nichrud) of the chandas. These are revealed mantras/siddha mantras and hence source of their power is different..

Re: Tantric Sadhanas
Tantrik works like Saundarya Lahiri( composed by Adi Shankaracharya) or Lalita Sahasranama ? All are tarnished because of something someone said ? An ocean is mapped based on a photo someone saw of it ?

Re: Tantric Sadhanas
This thread is a perfect example of why one should not ask or take advise from strangers about esoteric practices(like tantra) online. We have above two examples of extremes of thought, both not backed by tradition and practice under a Guru.

It really depends on the karmic link between the family members. There is no hard and fast rule.

Re: Sandhi/Sandi Shanti Homam for transitioning from or into Rahu Maha Dasa
Dasha sandhi is definitely a period of weakness for people and divine help definitely needs to be sought. Whether the homa in question helps in this is another matter to be considered. From a brief search on the net, it seems these are primary being offered in some temples/areas. Perhaps it is their...

Re: Tantric Sadhanas
Your ambition represents kshudra sadhana and is not really the higher form of tantra. Grimoires do not have a part in Indian tantra, which is allied to the broader tradition and is passed on from Guru to Sishya. It is a living tradition . The empowerment of the individual by the Guru is what is most...

Re: Meditation/Ideation nullifies planetary effects?
Please get a Guru if you do not have one. Guru protects one and guides when it is needed. Don’t proceed without guidance of a sadguru. Sounds like some kind of Kundalini awakening. This MUST be done ONLY with Guru's guidance and grace- it can lead to disaster if done otherwise.

Re: How to read viShNu sahasranAma stotram
The Vishnu sahasranama would be incomplete & ineffective without the sections before and after the names themselves. This is the same for many other traditional prayers as well.

Surya was okay.I was able to earn decent amounts of money and save a bit until 2015 September. I bou...

You can remove the materials after your sutak/ashoucha is over. The period of asoucha will vary depending on the relationship with the person who has passed away. For maternal uncle it would be less than one year. You can restart vrat after the ashoucha period is over. Consult a purohita for the exa...
