Vedanta in Practice

A Micro-Blog from Swami Vimokshananda – earlier at Durban, Singapore and Dublin – now at Yelagiri Hills, Tamil Nadu, India – "A private diary for public consumption!"

Today, I remember with nostalgia the wonderful Sri Jagaddhatri Puja held every year at Ramakrishna Mission TB Sanatorium in Ranchi District. By Her grace, I had the best moments of my life by organising for twelve years, this mammoth function where more than twenty thousand people were given lunch prasad! Many devotees requested me for the Jagaddhatri Stotram which I reproduce below with English Transliteration. By reading this Stotram, the grace of Divine Mother Sri Jagaddhatri will be ours. Earlier this Blog has published two posts on Mother Jagaddhatri. Links are given below:

Joyous Jagaddhatri

Magnanimous Mother

श्री जगद्धात्री स्तोत्रम्

आधाररूपे चाधेये धृतिरूपे धुरन्धरे ।
ध्रुवे ध्रुवपदे धीरे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ १॥
शवाकारे शक्तिरूपे शक्तिस्थे शक्तिविग्रहे ।
शक्ताचारप्रिये देवि जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ २॥
जयदे जगदानदे जगदेकप्रपूजिते ।
जय सर्वगते दुर्गे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ३॥
सूक्ष्मातिसूक्ष्मरूपे च प्राणापानादिरूपिणि ।
भावाभावस्वरूपे च जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ४॥
कालाधिरूपे कालेशे कालाकालविभेदिनि ।
सर्वस्वरूपे सर्वज्ञे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ५॥
महाविघ्ने महोत्साहे महामाये वरप्रदे ।
प्रपञ्चसारे साध्वीशे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ६॥
आगम्ये जगतामाद्ये माहेश्वरि वराङ्गने ।
अशेषरूपे रूपस्थे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ७॥
तीर्थयज्ञ-तपोदान-य्योगसारे जगन्मयि ।
त्वमेव सर्वं सर्वस्थे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ८॥
दयारूपे दयादृष्टे दयार्द्रे दुःखमोचनि ।
सर्वापत्तारिके दुर्गे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ ९॥
आगम्यधाम-धामस्थे महायोगीश-हृत्पुरे ।
अमेयभावकूटस्थे जगद्धात्रि नमोऽस्तु ते ॥ १०॥

इति श्रीजगद्धात्रीस्तोत्रं सम्पूर्णम् ।

        Dear Sandhya
        Your feeling blessed is welcome! The Ramakrishna tradition of spiritual sadhana has included the chanting of hymns as a regular feature. The monks and devotees have a routine selection of certain hymns and chant these during their prayer time. it is one of the effective means in getting control of your mind. Also it contributes in enhancing the devotional attitude to our ishta devata.
        Love, best wishes and prayers
