How can the knowledge of that Veda Vidy\u00e2 (Learning) be obtained by which all sins are rooted out and destroyed, how is Brahmaj\u00f1\u00e2nam obtained and how can Moksa be obtained? How can death be conquered and how can\nthe best results be obtained in this world and in the next. O Lotus-eyed One! Thou ought\u2019st to describe fully all these to me.\n4-9. N\u00e2r\u00e2yana said :-- O N\u00e2rada! O Highly Learned One! S\u00e2dhu! S\u00e2dhu! You have now put a nice question indeed! Now I will describe one thousand and eight names of the G\u00e2yatr\u00ee Dev\u00ee. Listen attentively. These all sin-destroying auspicious names were composed by Brahm\u00e2 and first recited by Him. Its Risi is Brahm\u00e2; the Chhandas is Anustup; the Devat\u00e2 is G\u00e2yatr\u00ee; its V\u00eeja is Halavarna (consonants) and its S\u2019akti is Svaravarna (vowels). Perform the Anga Ny\u00e2sa and the Kara Ny\u00e2sa by the M\u00e2trik\u00e2 varnas (that is, by the fifty syllables). Now hear its Dhy\u00e2nam, that will do good to the S\u00e2dhakas (the practisers). [N.B. :-- Amga Ny\u00e2sa - Touching the limbs of the body with the hand accompanied by appropriate Mantras. Kara Ny\u00e2sa - assignment of the various parts of fingers and hand to different deities which is usually accompanied with prayers and corresponding gesticulations.] I worship the Kum\u00e2r\u00ee (virgin) G\u00e2yatr\u00ee Dev\u00ee, the Lotus-eyed One, riding on the Swan (the Pr\u00e2nas), and seated on a lotus (creation); Who is three-eyed and of a red colour; and Who is bright and decorated with gems and jewels of red, white, green, blue, yellow and other variegated colours; Who is holding in Her hands Kundik\u00e2, the rosary, lotus and making signs as if ready to grant the desired boons and on whose neck is suspended the garland of red flowers.

O N\u00e2rada! Thus I have described to you one thousand (and eight) names of G\u00e2yatr\u00ee; the hearing of which yields merits and destroys all sins and gives all prosperity and wealth. Specially in the Astam\u00eetithi (eighth lunar day) if after one\u2019s meditation (dhy\u00e2nam) worship, Homa, and japam, one recites this in company with the Brahm\u00e2nas, one gets all sorts of satisfactions. These one thousand and eight names of the G\u00e2yatr\u00ee ought not to be given to anybody indiscriminately. Speak this out to him only who is very devoted, who is a Brahm\u00e2na, and who is an obedient disciple. Even if any devotee, fallen from the observances of \u00c2char\u00e2 (right way of living), be a great friend, still do not disclose this to him.\n160-165. In whatever house, these names are kept written, no cause of fear can creep in there and Laksm\u00ee, the Goddess of wealth, though unsteady, remains steady in that house.\nThis great secret yields merits to persons, gives wealth to the poor, yields moksa to those who are desirous of it, and grants all desires. If anybody reads this, he gets cured of his diseases, and becomes freed from bondages and imprisonment. All the Great Sins, for example, murdering Br\u00e2hmanas, drinking wine, stealing gold, going to the wife of one\u2019s Guru, taking gifts from bad persons, and eating the uneatables, all are destroyed, yea, verily destroyed! O N\u00e2rada! Thus I have recited to you this Great Secret. All persons get, indeed, united with Brahm\u00e2 (Brahama s\u00e2yujya) by this. True. True. True. There is not the least trace of doubt here.\nHere ends the Sixth Chapter of the Twelfth Book on the one thousand and eight names of the G\u00e2yatr\u00ee in the Mah\u00e2pur\u00e2nam S\u2019r\u00ee Mad Dev\u00ee Bh\u00e2gavatam of 18,000 verses by Maharsi Veda Vy\u00e2sa.","title":"The Devi Bhagavatam: The Twelfth Book: Chapter 6","type":"page"}
