Sri Maha Prathyangira Khadgamala Stotram in Sanskrit and English

Dvisahasrākṣari mahā pratyaṅgirā khaḍgamālā stotra mantraḥ

Prologue:

The Divine Mother Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi in Her most aggressive avatar is referenced as Mahā Pratyaṅgirā or Atharvaṇa Bhadrakāḻi, the protector of the Atharvaṇa Veda and all its secretive incantations. The Khaḍgamālā stotram consists of all the attributes and deities associated with the yantra (mystical diagram) of Śrī Mahā Pratyaṅgirā Devi and is treated by itself, as a two thousand lettered mantra. Reciting this mantra for a week on a daily basis is said to bring huge benefits and if recited for a longer time, may help the devotee overcome all difficulties in life, remove all types of afflictions caused by the planetary formation in one’s horoscope, removal of all types of black magic and incantations performed against the person, as well as for the fulfillment of all material and spiritual desires.

The only restriction is that one must be initiated into any of the Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi mantras and also to the Śrī Mahā Pratyaṅgirā Devi mantras. She is a very aggressive form of the Divine Mother and it is not safe to recite this mantra without a proper initiation as sadhaka might not be able to withstand the energies of Divine Mother. Her Ugra form is only to clear our deep-rooted sticky karmas and make us proceed towards Moksha. Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi mantras are generally given to the Śrī Vidya devotees who are facing many difficulties and in need of protection. By default, Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi will protect all Śrī Vidya devotees (upāsaka-s) and initiation is generally not required. There is also no necessity for Śrī Vidya devotees, to recite this mantra if there are no major hurdles in their life.

1. ślokaḥ / श्लोकः:

siṃhīṃ siṃha-mukhīṃ sakhīṃ bhagavatīṃ śrī bhairavasyollasat
śūla sthūla kapāla pāśa ḍamaru vyagrāgra-hastāmbujām ।
daṃṣṭrā-koṭi viṣaṅg-aṭāsya-kuharāṃ ārakta netra-trayīṃ
bālendudyuti maulikāṃ bhagavatīṃ pratyaṅgirāṃ bhāvaye ॥

सिंहीं सिंह मुखीं सखीं भगवतीं श्री भैरवोल्लसत्
शूल स्थूल कपाल पाश डमरु व्याघ्राग्र हस्ताम्बुजां ।
दंष्ट्राकोटि विशङ्कटास्य कुहराम् आरक्त नेत्र त्रयीं ।
बालेन्दुद्युति मौलिकां भगवतीं प्रत्यङ्गिरां भावये ॥

We meditate on the terrifying form of the Divine Mother Śrī Pratyaṅgirā, who is seated on a lion, has a lion face and is the consort of Śrī Bhairava. She holds in Her hands, a trident, arrows, a skull-shaped bowl, a noose, a musical drum and a lotus entwined in Her fingers. She has very sharp diamond teeth many billions in the count and a very wide gaping mouth. She has three blood-red eyes displaying Her anger and aggression, also signifying the activation of the ājñā cakra. She is very dark as the new moon night and is the cause of annihilation. She is adorned by the moon on Her forehead lending further luster on Her.

śrī vidyāṃ madhurāṃ kālīṃ mahā pratyaṅgirāṃ śubhām kapāla śūla ḍamaru nāga-pāśam ca bibhratīm ।
siṃha-rūḍhāṃ jvālāj-jihvāṃ sarva saubhāgya jananīṃ ।
śāntyatītāṃ sadā dhyāyet sadākhya nidhi siddhaye ॥

श्री विद्यां मधुरां कालीं महा प्रत्यङ्गिरां शुभाम् कपाल शूल डमरु नागपाशम् च बिभ्रतीम् ।
सिंहरूढां ज्वालाज्जिह्वां सर्व सौभाग्य जननीं ।
शान्त्यतीतां सदा ध्यायेत् सदाख्य निधि सिद्धये ॥

The nectar of śrī vidyā is the Divine Mother Kālī, the One who is beyond all dimensions of space and time manifested as Mahā Pratyaṅgirā heralding auspiciousness and complete transformation of one’s fate. She is holding a skull representing Her role as the Creator, a trident indicating the various triads manifested all over the entire Creation and Her role as the Preserver, a drum indicating all the vibrations and frequencies of sound projected everywhere in the entire Creation, a stick shaped like a snake, indicating the spinal cord and the various spiritual channels (nāḍi-s), that help with the activation of the spiritual chakras and the flow of the Kuṇḍalini energy, from the bottom of the spine to the top of the head.

She is mounted on a ferocious lion and She Herself is emitting fire from the mouth, representing the flow of all light and energy from Her to the entire Creation. She is the Divine Mother and the source of all wealth, prosperity and auspiciousness. She brings peace and calmness at all times, to Her sincere devotees, who meditate upon Her and heaps all types of treasures upon them. There will be no dearth of anything to Her devotees, who manage to obtain Her grace.
