Baba's Yogic powers

This is from Shri Sai Satcharita (in Chapter 5) regarding Baba's yogic powers and neem tree's greatness.

Sada Nimbavrikshasya mooladhiwasaat,
Sudhastravinam tiktamapiapriyam tam,
Tarum Kalpavrikshadhikam sadhayantam
Namameeshwaram Sadgurum Sai Natham

I bow to Lord Sai Nath, who by his constant stay at the foot of the Neem tree, made, it - which though bitter and unpleasant was yet oozing nectar(Amrut) on account of its healing properties, better than the Kalpavruksha(wish fulfilling tree)

To stay awake

To stay awake while studying / preparing for exams / interviews - meditate on the symbol.

These are Japanese Buddhist Mantras. I found these in my old papers. I remember purchasing the book, but seemed to have copied just few pages which I felt were important. As with any mantra, it is important to have faith when chanting it. Additional symbols for specific purposes will be posted. These symbols can be carried in person or meditated upon.




You may want to refer to power calls when meditating on this symbol.

The Power Calls

What power calls can do for us?

These are Japanese Buddhist Mantras. I found these in my old papers. I remember purchasing the book, but seemed to have copied just few pages which I felt were important. As with any mantra, it is important to have faith when chanting it. Additional symbols for specific purposes will be posted. These symbols can be carried in person or meditated upon.

SENTEN NAMU FURUHOBIRU :

When recited a number of good spirits come together and form a union with a  main guardian spirit at the center. At the same time, you can yourself form a union with the guardian spirit. A sacred atmosphere will naturally sorround you.


NOMAKU SAMANDA BAZARADANKAN :

When you recite this, Acala the God of Fire with strong will and power, will become the center of the Guardian Spirit Force. When this happens the power of the force will be tripled. This mantra is effective to suppress evil forces, black magic.

UNTEN TOHBOH EHTATO :

When you recite this, you can change disaster into happiness. Say it with the Spiritual World Happiness Logo in front of you.

HARUCHI UMUCHI TSUZUCHI :

When you recite this, you will be able to show your potential ability dramatically.

HONBORA SOMOBIRU FURUFURUFURU :

When you recite this, you can perform simple exorcism. This is especially effective when you are being bothered by ghosts.

AMATERASU OHMIKAMI :

When you repeat this 11 times, you can bask in the power of the Sun Goddess.

More info and protection symbols will be posted as time permits. Do revisit.

Remedy from Poverty

Kanaka dhAra Slokam

Adi Shankaracharya was possibly one of the great saints of his time.. After brahmopadesa, as is usual during those times, he was asked to beg alms for his lunch. One day when he went to a Brahmin house, the lady of the house was so poor that she did not have anything to give him. She searched hard and found one small fruit of gooseberry, which she gave to Sankara the boy. He was so touched by her gesture that he sang these 21 mellifluous hymns on Goddess Lakshmi, who poured golden goose berries as rain to the poor womans house. Even today it is believed that poverty would be banished by singing this hymn.
