In the pantheon of Hindu deities, Goddess Bhairavi holds a place of profound significance. As one of the Ten Mahavidyas, she represents a powerful aspect of Goddess Parvati and is the consort of Bhairav, a fearsome manifestation of Lord Shiva. Her name, Tripurabhairavi, alludes to the three states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, and deep sleep. Mastery over these states is said to lead one to Shiva consciousness.
Tantric practitioners revere Goddess Bhairavi as a supreme deity, her fierce appearance a testament to her dominion over the subtle realms. Her worship is believed to bestow numerous benefits:
- Swift fulfillment of desires
- Divine protection against threats
- Enhanced courage and fearlessness
- Shielding from negative energies and ill-wishers
- Blessings of fertility for childless couples
- Inner peace and contentment
For those seeking to invoke Goddess Bhairavi’s blessings, the following mantras are considered powerful:
1. Bhairavi Mool Mantra:
Om Hreem Bhairavi Kalaum Hreem Svaha ||
2. Ashtakshari Tripure Bhairavi Mantra:
Hasaim Hasakarim Hasaim ||
3. Shmashan Bhairavi Mantra:
Shmashana Bhairavi Nararudhurasthi – Vasabhakshini Siddhim Me Dehi
Mama Manorathan Puraya Hum Phat Svaha ||
To properly invoke Goddess Bhairavi, follow these steps:
Step 1: Begin with meditation on the Muladhara (Root) Chakra, where Goddess Bhairavi is said to reside. A 10-minute meditation is recommended to prepare your mind and energy.
Step 2: Place an image of Goddess Bhairavi before you, within your line of sight. You may offer red flowers as a sign of devotion.
Step 3: Using a Jaap Mala (prayer beads), commence chanting your chosen mantra. Ensure you have privacy and won’t be disturbed during this practice.
Step 4: Repeat this ritual daily for at least 11 days, completing one full round of the Jaap Mala (108 repetitions) each session.
It’s crucial to approach this practice with pure intentions. While Goddess Bhairavi’s power can bring about swift results, misuse of these mantras for harmful purposes is strongly cautioned against. The goddess is said to punish those who attempt to harm innocent souls through her invocations.
Remember, the potency of these mantras lies not just in their sound, but in the devotion and intention behind their recitation. Approach this practice with reverence, respect, and a sincere heart, and you may find Goddess Bhairavi’s blessings manifesting in profound ways in your life.
