Sri Subrahmanya Mala Manthra

Sri Subrahmanya Mala Manthra

( The garland of Chants on  Lord Subrahmanya)

Translated  by
P.R.Ramachander

(Here is a remarkable prayer  addressed  to Lord Subrahmanya .It is written in the style of Dandakam.   It is  taught by  Saint Brugu to Lord Rama . It has an introduction,  Dhyana  , nyasa followed by  two very  huge sentences ending  with” please protect me” and the third part is  requests to the Lord for fulfilling    the wants of the devotee.) 

Brugur Uvacha:-
Sage Brugu said:-

1. Sruna  Rama, pravakshyami  Subrahmanyasya vai guro,
Mala Manthram  manu srestam  sravanadh Bhakthi mukthidham ,
Brahma hathya sura pana guruDharagamadhimibhi,
Paapai  peeditha chithaanaam  sodhakam  Gangathoyavath,
Abheepsithartha samprapthou kalpa vruksha samam  nrunaam

1.Oh Rama , please   hear,  I will  now tell you   the garland chant of  Lord Subrahmanya  ,
 Who is the Guru and who is greatly wise, which will give you devotion    and salvation,
Which purifies the mind  afflicted by  the sins of Brahma Hathya,
Drinking  of alcoholic drinks  and  having relation with wife of Guru,
Like   the sacred   waters  of Ganga  , and it is also,
Fulfills all your desires    and is equal to the  wish giving tree  of Devas.

2.Asya  Sri Subrahmanya mala manthrasya  Brahma Rishi  , Sarvaani chandamsi, Sri Subrahmanya   paramathma   DEvathaa, Sum bheejam, Nama Sakthi, jnanam keelakam, Sri Subrahmanya  prasada  sidhyarthe   jape  viniyoga
Saam  ithyadhi   shadanga  nyasa   Dhyanam

2. Now for the garland chant on lOrd Subrahmanya , the sage is  Lord Brahma  , All meters are used , the God addressed is Lord Subrahmanya  , the root is ‘sum”, the poer is “Nama”  , the wisdom is the nail    and this is being chanted to get the  grae of Lord Subrahmanya,
The six limb   ritual  is Saam and so on

3.Dhyanam (meditation)
Sindhoorarauna  mindhu padma jayibhi , shadbir mukhai r bhasitham,
Karunyamrutha  poora sundara tharai  bhaandham dwishallochanai,
Bhibraanam   varamabjja yugmabhyam   SAkthi dhvyam karmukam,
Gadgam  charma  prushadkumangusa gadhe   vallesameekshe  hrudhi.

The  Lord  who has  the   six faces which  wins over  the  saffron coloured moon and lotus flower,
Who has     twelve  very pretty eyes   which looked as if drenched  by nectar like  mercy,
Who carries   two Sakthi weapons  , Bow shaped weapon , sword   , mace , goad,
And   shows   boon   as well as protection   and is the lord of Valli   and I keep him in my heart

Adha Mala Manthra
Now the  Garland chant
