Amogha Shivakacha:
The amogha shivakavacha stotra is found in the skandapuraaNa. It is believed that chanting of these mantras every day gets rid of the negative energy that affects the human body and protects the body and soul. The kavach is peculiar in the sense that it uses words like “hum\, vauShaT\, vaShaT” and “phaT” which have no real meaning in the Sanskrit language but are used to produce particular sound waves. This practice is found more often in the Skanda Purana than in any other ancient Sanskrit literature. Usually, Vedic mantras have meaning.
The kavach uses the procedure called “nyaasa” which involves invoking particular deities to protect particular parts of the human body. The practice of “nyaasa” is prevalent since ancient times and occurs in many Sanskrit rituals in different forms.
It is believed by some that the Skanda Purana is mystical and involves many aspects, which are followed by those who follow “yaatudhaana” (black magic) or the tantriks of “shaakta pa.ntha” .
