Sarva Shukla Saraswati Mantras

Soundarya Lahari has 3 important Slokas that have Saraswathi Mantras and Beejaksharas  incorporated in them. These 3 are called Sarva Shukla Saraswati Mantras.

The Soundarya Lahari is not only a poem. It is a tantra textbook, giving instructions on puja and offerings, many yantras, almost one to each shloka; describes tantric ways of performing devotion connected to each specific shloka; and details the results ensuing.

Soundarya Lahari meaning waves of beauty consists of two parts viz. Ananda Lahari meaning waves of happiness (first 41 stanzas) and Soundarya Lahari (the next 59 stanzas). It is believed that Lord Ganesha himself has etched the Ananda Lahari on Mount Meru (Some people believe that Sage Pushpa Dhantha did the etching). It was read from there by Sage Goudapada who taught it to Adi Sankara. Adi Sankara himself added the rest of the 59 stanzas and completed it.

These 100 stanzas are supposed to be the foremost among Mantra literature. It is also believed that by Making suitable Yantras and reciting particular stanzas and worshipping the yantras almost anything can be obtained in the world .There are more thn 36 commentaries to Soundarya Lahari written in Sanskrit itself. Of them the most famous is that written by Lakshmi Dhara alias Lalla, His commentary is used to understand the meaning of the different verses.

Though there are large number of translations and commentaries of Soundarya Lahari available this is perhaps the first time an attempt is made by a mere novice to translate them in to English verse. The aim is to bring to the notice of the devotes who know English better than other languages , the majesty of the medium of worship called Soundarya Lahari. A transliteration in roman script is also given. May all those who read this be drenched forever by this “Wave of happiness”.

Most asked FAQs:

Can ‘elevation in academics’ be gained if done without yantra? What will be the results if done that way?

Yantra installation and puja are not necessary and not allowed for non-Srividya Upasakas. To do yantra puja, one must be initiated by a recognized Srividya Upasaka or spiritual Guru. Mantra chanting (minimum of 11 times everyday to 108 times) will yield very good results.

Note:

As noted in the Introduction, certain sounds in Sanskrit do not exist in English – the “sh” sound in “Shiva”, Vashini” etc. is one of them.  It is somewhere between “s” and “sh” in English and appears as both of these in the original manuscripts.
