Renuka Shatanama Stotram Audio



In a previous post, the thousand name hymn for Sri Renuka Devi was dealt with. Here we deal with the one hundred and eight divine name hymn for Sri Renuka Devi. The Maharishi associated with this stotram is Sri Shanndilya Maharishi. One might want to note that in this hymn, several forms of Devi are associated with Sri Renuka, such as Mahalakshmi, Mahasaraswati and Mahakali, in addition to Bhramarambha Devi and so on. Thus the power of this hymn becomes evident. There is also a short “Phalasruthi” at the end; which essentially says the benefits of reciting or listening.
This is a beautiful hymn and is sure to fill the listener or reciter with happiness and peace of mind. This is a short hymn – only 6 minutes and 20 seconds long and is a relatively short file size – only 5.8 MB.

And now the audio: 6 minutes and 20 seconds long.

Kalika Devi ShataNama Stotram Audio


Kalika Devi is the First of the Dasa Mahavidyas. The picture at the top of this post is that of the Kalika Devi that came from Butala Emporium in New York, during the Chandi Homam in Navaratri of 2015, a post written about in this blog. The Kalika Devi ShataNama Stotram is a hundred name hymn in praise of Goddess Kalika Devi and is really beautiful. By adding “Svaha” after every couplet and after every “Uvacha”, one can use in the performance of Kalika Devi Homam. Credit goes to brother-in-law Kishore, for providing this stotram. It gives joy to listen to it and hopefully you will enjoy it too! This is a short hymn.

And now the audio: 5 minutes and 8 seconds long.

Shodashi Shathanama Stotram Audio

 

Devi Shodashi is the third Dasha Mahavidya and also goes by the name of Tripura Sundari, Lalita Devi and Raja Rajeshwari. An informative Wikipedia article can be found at :  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tripura_Sundari .
She is the main deity of worship for Sri Vidya Upasakas. I have NOT been initiated into Sri Vidya Pancha Dasi or the Shodasi mantras by any guru; no one would initiate me. However, I still worship Tripura Sundari Devi, since She gives me happiness. And I worship Her to thank for all of the great things She has done for all people everywhere. Those people that have received Pancha Dasi or Shodasi mantra deeksha are indeed blessed souls and must have done a lot of penance and meritorious deeds either in this life or in previous lives.

The Shodashi Shatanama Stotram is a hundred name hymn in praise of Goddess Shodashi and is really beautiful. I must give credit to Kishore, my brother-in-law for providing me this stotram. It gives me joy to listen to it and hopefully you will enjoy it too!
And now the audio: 4 minutes and 5 seconds long.

Dhoomavati Shathanama Stotram Audio


 
Devi Dhoomavati is the seventh Dasha Mahavidya and is misunderstood by many people just like Devi Chinnamasta is. Wikipedia article can be found at :  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhumavati 

The first syllable Dhoom to be pronounced as in “zoom” and the last syllable as in "theme". This is important since the seed syllables form part of the invoking procedure. Here is a short minute long video clip taken from the Dhoomavati Homam performed by me along with my son on our back deck in mid 2015.

 
Devi Dhoomavati teaches one to look beyond the obvious and into the esoteric. She bestows boons to Her devotees and is a phenomenal Goddess of wisdom.
The Dhoomavati Shatanama Stotram is a hundred name hymn in praise of Goddess Dhoomavati and is really beautiful. I must give credit to Kishore, my brother-in-law for providing me this stotram. It gives me joy to listen to it and hopefully you will enjoy it too!

And now the audio: 3 minutes long.

Bagalamukhi Shatanama Stotram Audio


 

Devi Bagalamukhi is the eighth Dasha Mahavidya and is misunderstood by many people just like Devi Chinnamasta is. Wikipedia article can be found at : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagalamukhi

Devi Bagalamukhi is known to paralyze enemies. Her moola mantra itself spells out in detail the requests by Her devotee to enable paralyzing the speech, mind and motion of his enemies. That does NOT mean that She can be used to destroy fellow human beings. The keyword in the mantra is “Sarva Dhustanaam” which is loosely translated as “enemies”. The enemies that are referred to here are of an esoteric level. Anything that perturbs your divine peace of mind is an enemy; all the enemies are inside our own selves. The emotions of ego, greed, anger, etc are our real enemies; it is these emotions that have to be controlled and subdued.

Once these enemies are subdued, one can return to a state of mind that is in divine peace. And Devi Bagalamukhi can help a devotee accomplish that. She will provide you the ability to control your tongue, so you speak graceful words; She will provide you the ability to control your anger so you can be in peace with yourself and others and so on.

The Bagalamukhi Shatanama Stotram is a hundred name hymn in praise of Goddess Bagalamukhi and is really beautiful. I must give credit to Kishore, my brother-in-law for providing me this stotram. It gives me joy to listen to it and hopefully you will enjoy it too!

And now the audio: 4 minutes and 12 seconds long.

Matangi Shathanama Stotram Audio


 
Devi Matangi is the ninth Dasha Maha Vidya. Dasha Mahavidyas as you may know are the ten Great Wisdom Goddesses. Devi Matangi is the tantric form of Goddess Saraswati. Detailed Wikipedia article is found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matangi .

The Matangi ShathaNama Stotram comprises one hundred names and is a rare Sanskrit Shloka. I must give credit to Kishore, my brother-in-law for providing me this stotram. It is one of the most beautiful shlokas one comes across ; I have made hand marks at the break points in the pdf shlokam to help the reciter.

And now the audio: about 6 minutes long.
