The Month of Shravan and its Significance

Today is Shravana Krishna Ashtami, the eleventh day of Shravana masam (month). The month of Shravan is the fourth month in the Hindu calendar and falls in the western months of August and September. This month has a lot of spiritual significance and is considered auspicious for Hindus for many reasons.

Samudra Manthan

According to the Puranas (holy texts), it was during this month that the Devathas (Gods) and Asuras (demons) churned the ocean in search of amrit (nectar). Although the churning of the ocean gave them the amrit, it also gave them poison. Because the Devathas did not know what to do with the poison, they went to Lord Shiva for help. Lor Shiva swallowed the poison and stored it in his throat which for which he got the name, Neelkant (blue throat). This is why Shravana masam is important for the devotees of Lord Shiva.

Sola Somvaar Vrat

The Sola Somvaar Vrat is another reason why Shravana masam is important for the devotees of Lord Shiva. Those who want to do the Sola Somvaar Vrat (16 Mondays) usually start on the first Monday of Shravana masam and complete it on the last Monday Karthika masam. This vrat is mostly observed by unmarried women who want to be married to the man of their dreams. But married women can observe this vrat, too, for better health or fulfilment of their wishes. For this vrat, women fast all morning and afternoon and break it in the evening after doing pooja for Lord Shiva.

Mangala Gauri

The Mangala Gauri Vratham (pooja) is performed by married women for health, prosperity, and the long life of their husband. It is also performed for a happy married life. This vratham is only performed in Shravana masam on Tuesdays. After the pooja, a minimum of 5 married women are invited home for Haldi and Kumkum. The traditions for this pooja vary based on each family.

Varalakshmi Vratham

In South India, Varalakshmi Vratham (pooja) is performed by married women on the Friday before Poornima (full moon). Vara Maha Lakshmi or Varalakshmi is the Goddess of wealth and prosperity. Women perform this pooja every year for the blessings of the Goddess on them, their husband, and children.

Raksha Bandhan

Raksha Bandhan is day that is celebrated all across India to honor the pure bond between brother and sister. On the day of Raksha Bandhan, the sister ties a rakhi on her brother’s wrist, the brother presents her with a gift, and they both promise to protect each other no matter what the circumstances.

Krishna Janmashtami

Shravana Krishna Ashtami, according to the Puranas, is the day Lord Krishna was born. Other names for this day are Krishnashtami, Krishna Janmashtami, or Janmashtami. On this day, Hindu families decorate their home with rangoli and make food the Lord Krishna likes.

Pranam

Firstly, I am  conveying my  humble gratitude for your articles on what is a superb website -  I am deeply grateful.  As you may have already perceived, there has been a rise in Bhairava tattva of late.  There’s an upsurge in Bhairava  related practices not just in Bharat but around the world. I am part of Telegram group created by Bhairava Sadhakas. On that site, we collectively pitch in and take a sankalp to do x number of rounds of  a rudraksha mala of a basic mantra ( OM Bhairavaya Namaha) on Kalabhairava Ashtami tithi monthly . There purpose the the japa is solely for Dharma raksha  of Bharat as a geographical location ( even for non Indian citizens like myself). We are cognisant of the geopoloitlcal tensions in the subcontinent and the pressures that India faces as a nation defending its borders against neighbouring countries. The end goal is for the awakening of Bhairava as a kshetrapala of India and the defeat of adharmic enemies. 

There are a few moderators of the Telegram group who have to deal with a phenomenal amount of questions related to vishesh and nitya sadhana of Bhairava. On that group, many devotees have seeked to find out the word by word meaning of the Shri Batuka Bhairava Brahma kavacham. Why specifically this kavacham? This is because the proprietor of the group ( Rajarshi Nandy ) has suggested we do this kavacham once we have become firmly rooted in basic Bhairava nama mantra sadhana. We have been directed by the group moderators to  search on google ourselves to decipher  the meaning of it. I have combed through the web extensively and nowhere is there any mention of the meaning of this  kavacham, let alone the related nyasam prior to chanting the kavacham. This telegram group does not offer any mantra deeksha or initiations.

I along with the rest of the devotees  on the Telegram group would like to take our sadhana to a new level with gaining an in depth meaning of the kavacham. I would be very grateful if you could post the meaning of it on your website along with any related nyasam. I wish to declare that I don't have a physical Guru at the moment and have taken Sri Batuka Bhairava as my devata Guru for now until I source  a physical Guru. I have used this webpage from another website as a guidelines for finding a suitable Guru: https://manblunder.com/articlesview/qualities-of-a-guru Until I find a suitable Guru, I rely on expositions from excellent websites such as yours to broaden my knowledge on Sanatana Dharma.

Further to this, if you offer mantra deeksha or initiation,I would be grateful if you could offer initiation of the above Kavacham along with the Batuka Bhairava Apadudhharana Beej mantra. I can be contacted at:

rajdevsingh@yahoo.com

I will be happy to purchase any book of yours related to the initiation of the above kavacham if I am required to purchase any books.

Thank you kindly for considering my request

Kind regards

Rajdev

Thank you for the question , vatuka bhairava brahma kavacha is found in batuka bhairavopasanadhyaya in brahad jyotisharnava. That text says that this kavacha is from Rudyard Yamaha tantra

The text only gives rushyAdi nyAsa which is Bhairava Rishih ( touch the head) , anushtup chandah ( face - lip ) and vatuka bhairavo devata ( touch the heart )

Vatuka bhairava prasada sidhyarthe pAthe viniyogah ( namaskAra mudra)

I will try to write on this kavacha soon , currently working on translating another stotra .

Sorry to inform you that I don't provide deeksha , manblunder website has a page where you can contact senior sadhakas to get deeksha ( as you are familiar with the website.

I have translated texts like bhairava stavaraja, bhairava dashanama stotra, Kala bhairava ashtakam etc. You can find them in amazon.in

Lord Krishna Janmashtami 2024 Date and Time Celebration in India

As the sacred festival of Lord Krishna Janmashtami approaches, devotees across India eagerly prepare to celebrate the birth of the divine Lord Krishna with fervor and devotion. Janmashtami, also known as Krishna Janmashtami, marks the joyous occasion of Lord Krishna's birth, an event filled with divine significance and cultural richness. In this blog post, we delve into the details of Janmashtami 2024, including the date, time, and various rituals observed during this auspicious celebration.

Significance of Krishna Janmashtami

According to Hindu scriptures, Sri Krishna was born to Devaki and Vasudeva in the city of Mathura on the Ashtami Tithi, or the eighth day of the dark fortnight of Bhadrapada. Kansa, the demon king of Mathura, was the brother of Devaki. A prophecy stated that Kansa would be killed by the eighth son of Devaki as a result of his sins. Kansa therefore put his own sister and her husband in prison.

To prevent the prophecy from happening, he attempted to kill Devaki's children immediately after their birth. When Devaki gave birth to her eighth child, the whole palace was put into a deep sleep by magic. Vasudeva was able to protect the infant from Kansa's wrath by taking him during the night to Yashodha and Nanda's home in Vrindavan. This infant was a manifestation of Lord Vishnu who later took the name Sri Krishna and killed Kansa, ending his reign of terror.

Janmashtami 2024 Date and Time:

Janmashtami 2024 falls on Monday, August 26, 2024 according to the Hindu lunar calendar. Nishita Puja Time - 12:15 AM to 01:01 AM, Aug 27. Dahi Handi on Tuesday, August 27, 2024. Devotees eagerly anticipate this day, which symbolizes the birth of Lord Krishna, the eighth avatar of Lord Vishnu. The celebrations typically commence at midnight, as it is believed that Lord Krishna was born at that auspicious hour. The divine aura of Janmashtami fills the air with devotion, as devotees immerse themselves in prayer, fasting, and festivities to honor the beloved deity.

Janmashtami Celebration in India:

In India, Janmashtami is celebrated with great zeal and enthusiasm in various regions, each adding its unique cultural flavors to the festivities.

Janmashtami Puja:

Janmashtami puja holds immense significance in Hindu tradition, as it allows devotees to establish a personal connection with Lord Krishna. The puja rituals typically include bathing the idol of Lord Krishna with panchamrit (a mixture of milk, curd, honey, ghee, and sugar), offering fresh fruits, sweets, and delicacies as bhog (offering), and chanting mantras dedicated to Lord Krishna.

Devotees also engage in the Dahi Handi ritual, where an earthen pot filled with curd is suspended at a height, symbolizing the mischievous nature of Lord Krishna, who would often steal butter during his childhood. Teams of young men form human pyramids to reach and break the handi, emulating the playful antics of Lord Krishna and his friends.

To ensure the smooth conduct of Janmashtami puja rituals, it is advisable to seek the guidance of experienced pandits (priests) who specialize in Vedic ceremonies. Pujashoppe offers convenient online booking services for pandits, allowing devotees to arrange for expert assistance in performing Janmashtami puja at their homes or community gatherings.

May this auspicious occasion bring peace, prosperity, and divine blessings to all devotees, fostering love and harmony in our hearts and communities. Let us rejoice in the eternal presence of Lord Krishna and seek his guidance on the path of righteousness and devotion.

Through prayer, fasting, and acts of seva (service), let us honor the divine legacy of Lord Krishna and emulate his teachings of love, compassion, and righteousness in our lives. Happy Janmashtami to one and all, from Pujashoppe – your trusted companion in spiritual journey!
