[from http://www.crl.com/~tzimon ] Subject: MantrArthAbhidhAnam of the VaradA Tantra ____________________________________________________________ ShrI Shiva said: Listen, O ParameshvarI! Now I shall describe to You the meaning of the Mantras, in the absence of knowledge of which no one can get the fruit even with millions of SAdhanA. O PArvatI! first of all listen to the meaning of the PrasAdabIja. Ha denotes Shiva and Au indicates SadAshiva; ShUnya indicates Duhkhahara. Thus Haum is the BIja for the worship of Shiva. Da indicates DurgA, U indicates Raksana; the NAdarUpa indicates VishvamAtA and Vindu indicates the Kurva. Thus DUm is the BIja for the worship of DurgA. Ka indicates KAlI; Ra indicates Brahma; I denotes MahAmAyA; NAda denotes VishvamAtA and the Vindu indicates Duhkhahara. Thus made up of these letters, KrIm is the BIja for the worship of KAlikA DevI for getting relief from afflictions and pain. Ha indicates Shiva; Repha indicates Dhana; I indicates Tusti; NAda indicates ParA; and Vindu indicates Duhkhahara. Thus the ShrIm is the BIja for the worship of LaksmI DevI. Ai stands for SarasvatI and Vindu for Duhkhaharana. Thus Aim id the BIja for the worship of VAnI. Ka stands for KAmadeva or Krsna; La for Indra; I for Tusti, and M for Sukha. Out of Love for You the KAmabIja which I have described is KlIm. Ha stands for Shiva; U for Bhairava; NAda for ParA, and the Vindu for Duhkhahara. These three letters make the Varma BIja HUm. Ga stands for Ganesha; Vindu for Duhkhaharana. Thus is made the BIja Gam for the worship of Ganesha. Ga stands for Ganesha; La for Teja; Au for MAtA; Vindu for Duhkhahara. Thus the BIja Glaum is meant for the worship of Ganesha. Ksa stands for Nrsimha; Ra for Brahma; Au for Urdhvadanta; and Vindu for Duhkhahara. Thus the BIja for the worship of Nrsimha is Ksraum. In each of the Mantras there are the first letters of Names, and the Name has been said SvayambhU. Therefore one should use or meditate upon the letters after knowing their meaning. Thus I have described to you the method according to which one should understand and meditate upon the meanings of the VibhaktIs. Sa stands for DurgottArana; Ta for TAraka; Repha for Bhukti; I for MahamAyA; NAda for VishvamAtrA; and Vindu for Duhkhahara. Out of love for You the meaning of the VadhUbIja which I have described is StrIm. Whenever there are two Vindus in a Mantra, the one stands for Duhkhaharana and the other for providing Sukha. Wherever are two Vindus in a Mantra, there the second is always used in the meaning of PUrna. The MAtrAs of SvAhA are famous in the meaning of ParA. Vasat stands for ShakramAtA; GirA for HaripriyA; Phat for SurA; and Vivrim for HayagrIva. Yam-bIja stands for VAyu and Lam for Indra. In BIjas consisting of several letters each letter-bhIja denotes its respective DevatA. Wherever the same BIja is used twice, their meanings should be considered different. Thus knowing the meaning of the Mantra one should satisfy himself. One should use the Mantras for the purpose of Japa only after knowing both of their meanings. ____________________________________________________________ [LINK]Back to Tools of CHAOS
