(SantānaHanumanmantra Prabhāvātsra Prayōga Kathanam)

श्रीपराशरः
अन्यं विशेषं वक्ष्यामि लोकाना मुपकारकं
संतान हनुमन्मंत्रं शृणुष्व मुनिपुंगव
यस्य स्मरेण मात्रेण संतानं प्राप्नुया द्भहु || 1

Śree Parāśara:

“Oh! Mytrēya! Listen, I am telling another special one known as SantānaHanumanmantra (Child-gracing Hanumanmantra). By just thinking about that mantra, one will be bestowed with children. (1)

सारा त्स्सरतमं मत्रं मंगळानां च मंगळं
मंत्रेणानेन सहसा भव स्सिद्दि माप्नुयुः || 2

This mantra is the most powerful of the powerful and the most auspicious of the auspicious. Many are the one that practiced this and obtained children. (2)

मंत्रोद्दरं प्रवक्ष्यामि सर्वमंत्र विशारद || 3

Oh! Knower of all mantras! I am telling about the SantānaHanumanmantra. (3)

आदौ प्रणव मुचार्य श्रीबीजं तदनंतरं
मायाबीजं तथोच्चार्य हनुमन्पद मुच्चरेत् || 4

ममतनय पदं पश्चाद्देहि देहीति संवदेत्
वह्निजायां समुच्चार्य विंशद्वर्णो मनु स्मृतः || 5

First utter the cosmic resonance ‘Ōm’, followed by the seed letter ‘Śreem’, then the seed letters ‘HreemKleem’, then ‘santāna Hanuman’, then ‘mama tanayam’, then ‘dēhidēhi’ and then concluding with ‘swāhā’. This is the 20-lettered mantra.

‘ŌmŚreemHreemKleemsantāna Hanuman! Dēhidēhi mama! swāhā’ (Oh! Children enabling Hanumān, give me give me children). (4-5)

सर्व सौभाग्य जनकं मंत्राणा मुत्तमोत्तमं || 6

This bestows all the auspicious nesses. This is the best of all the mantras. (6)

अस्यश्री सम्तानहनुमन्म्ंस्य ब्रह्मा रुषीः गायत्री छ्ंदः श्री संतान हनुमान देवता ओम बीजं स्वाहा शक्तिः श्री कीलकं मम संतान हनुमर्प्र्साद सिद्ध्यर्थे जपे विनियोगः मूलमंत्रेण न्यासं कुर्यात् || 7

For this SantānaHanumanmantra – Brahma is the ŗşi, Gāyatree is the meter, Santāna Hanuman is the God, Ōmis the seed, swāhā is the power, Śreem is the key and the utility of the recitation (jape viniyōgah) is for the seeking blessings of Hanumān with children (Śree Santāna Hanumatprasādasiddhyardhē). The body touching and hand gesticulation (nyāsa) ritual has to be performed with the root mantra itself. (7)

ध्यानंं
आंजनासुत! देवेश! केसरि प्रियनंदन!
देहि मे तनयं शीघ्रं सर्वभाग्यनिधिं प्रभो! || 8

Dhyānam

Oh! Son of Ańjana! Leader of the Gods! Darling son of Kēśari! Oh Lord! Grace me with a son that has all the riches, right away. (8)

प्रालेय द्युति बिंब कोटि रुचिर प्रस्पर्थि देहप्रभं
भास्व द्रत्न किरीट कुंडल मणि व्याकीर्ण गंडस्थलं
वामे व्यधिभि रौषधं निगळभिन्नं तत्करे दक्षिणे
बिभ्राणं हनुमंत मुज्ज्वल तटित्कोटि प्रभं संश्रये || 9

The one with pure snow like body luminance that is equal to 10 million disks of Sun, the one whose cheeks are resplendent with the diamonds studded in the crown and ear hangings, the one that has the disease remover Sanjeevi mountain in his left hand, the one with, in his right hand, the weapons that are capable of breaking binds and the one with brilliance equal to a thousand thunders – such Hanumān, that I am taking refuge under. (9)

पुरश्चयाक्रमं वक्ष्ये पंचलक्षं द्विजोत्तम!
नारिकेळोदकेनापि गोक्षीरेण विशेषतः
गोडोदकेन योगींद्र दशांशं तर्पये द्भुधः || 10

Oh! Best amongst Brahmins! I am telling about its repetition procedure. The mantra has to be repeated 500,000 times. About one tenth of the mantra liquid – be it coconut water or cow milk (especially) or jaggery (gur) – has to be used for tarpana (propitiation). (10)

त द्धशांशं हुने द्वद्वान सदा जपपरायणः || 11

One has to perform fire sacrifice with one tenth of that used in tarpana. (11)

खर्जूरफल सम्युक्तं इक्षुखंड मधुत्रयं
पुत्रजी व्याक्य बिजानि घृत शर्कर संयुतम्
परमान्नं च विप्रेंद्र होमं कुर्या द्विचक्षणः || 12

Oh! Mytrēya! One has to perform fire sacrifice with paramānna (sweet milk-rice pudding) cooked with dates, sugarcane pieces, honey, milk, sugar, putrajeevak (Putranjivaroxburghii, infertility medicine in traditional Indian medicine, Ayurvēda) seeds, ghee and sugar. (12)

ब्राह्मणा न्भोजये त्पश्चात् तद्धशांशं क्रमेण वै || 13

Afterwards, Brahmins well-versed with Vēdas equal in number to the tune of one tenth of the number of fire sacrifice have to be feasted. (13)

पुत्रजी व्यक्शमालाभिः जपं कुर्याच्च बुद्दिमान्
एवं यः कुरुते योगी संतानं प्राप्नुया द्बहु || 14

Then recitation has to be carried out with a prayer string (japamāla) made of putrajivak seeds. Whoever performs so with chittavrittinirodha (inner journey through the spiritual practice of yōga; i.e., mental fortitude) will definitely come to possess many children. (14)

अन्यं विशेषं वक्ष्यमि शृणु मैत्रेय तत्त्वतः
अस्त्रसंज्ञां प्रवक्ष्यामि लोकाना मुपकारकम् || 15

The Mystic Weapon

Oh! Mytrēya! I am telling about another specialty. I am telling about the mystic weapon needed that is useful to the world. Listen.  By just knowing this, everything is achieved by the people. (15)

भूत प्रेत पिशादादि ग्रहपीडा निवृत्तये
आस्त्रप्रयोगं कुर्वीत प्रयोगज्ञान तत्परः || 16

One has to know how to use it before applying this weapon for driving off spirits, disembodied souls and wandering spirits. (16)

न देयं भक्तिरहिते न देयं क्रूरकर्मणी
गुरुरुभक्ति विहीनाय न देयं पापकर्मणि
अनाचाराय पापाय न देयं अस्त्र मुत्तुमम् || 17

To no one without devotion, one performing cruel acts, one devoid of devotion to guru, one committing sins, one without traditional behaviour code and a sinner should never be told about this. (17)

अस्त्रोद्दारं प्रवक्ष्यामि पौरश्चर्या विधिं तथा
प्रयोगविधि माचक्षे सांतव च्च्र्णु योगिराट् || 18

Oh! Great Yōgi! I am telling about the deliverance, repetition procedure and method of use of the weapon. Listen totally. (18)

तारांकुशं महामाया शक्ति वराह मेव च
पंचमी बीजयुग्मंच वायु बिजद्वयं तथा || 19

First say the cosmic resonance ‘Ōm’, then the wordankuśa (elephant goad; represents power of perseverance on the spiritual path) seed letter ‘ēm’, then the power seed letter ‘gloum’, the fifth seed pair (pańcamabeejayugma), the Wind seed (vāyubeeja) twice each. (19)

मध्ये साध्यं च संयोज्यं वायु बीजद्वयं लिखेत्
वाराहबीज युग्मं च शक्ति वारह मेव च || 20

Keeping the name of the desired God in the center, the words ‘yam yam’ has to be written. Then to be given are the beeja (seed) names ‘gloumgloum’, the power seed ‘lam’the varāhabeeja‘gloum’ have to be told. (20)

माया पाशं तथा तारं मंत्र मेवं समुद्दरेत्
षोडशाक्ष र्वाख़्य रिपु उग्रस्त्रं शीघ्रसिद्दिदम् || 21

Then the māyābeeja‘ēm’, then the anupāśa (non-existant) beeja‘ām’ have to be said along with the cosmic sound (ōm) and the mantra has to be brought up (mantrōddhāra). Told as the 16-Letterd (şōdśākşree), this one is a terror to the enemies and quickly fructifying weapon. (21)

ब्राह्मा रुशिश्च छ्ंदोस्य गायत्री समुदाहृतं
देवता अंजनापुत्रः शत्रुमारण तत्परः || 22

It was told that the ŗşifor this weapon (astra) is Brahma the Creatorand the the meter is Gāytree. Āńjanēya (son of Ańjana = Hanumān) is the God. (22)

यंबीजं ग्लौं च शक्ति स्स्या द्दुंकारं कीलकं तथा
विना योगं चोग्रकर्म कलौ चैव मुनीश्वर
ध्याना देव कलौ मर्त्यो सर्वसिद्दिं प्रयच्चति || 23

The seed (beeja) for this weapon is ‘yam’, the power is ‘gloum’ and ‘hum’ is the key needs no resort to violent acts (ugrakarma). Oh! Sage Mytrēya! In the present era of Kali (present times lacking righteousness) man can attain everything via meditation. (23)

ध्यनं
अत्युग्रं ऊर्थ्वकेशं अरिकुल भयदं खाद दंष्ट्राथरोष्टं
उद्यद्बालार्कवर्नां रवि शशि नयनं कोटिसुर्य प्रकाशं
मौंजी कौपीन युक्तं घनधरणिधरं पाणिना धारयंतं
ध्याये दुग्रास्तरूपं उरुतर मनघं चांजनेयं कपीशम् || 24

Dhyānam

I am meditating upon Hanumān, the most ferocious, the one with the hair bundle growing upwards, the one fearful to the enemies, the one has the lower jae with canine teeth, the one that has the luminance of the rising sun, the one with Sun and Moon as the two eyes, one as radiant as 10 million Suns, one that wears a girdle made of munjagrass and a loin cloth, the one holding a great mountain in the hand, the great one, the one that is the form of weapon and the best of the monkeys. (24)

पुरुश्चर्या मक्रुत्वातु कार्यदाहा च्च पातकी
प्रयोगा नाचरेत्सोपि उन्मादी जायते धृवम्
तस्मात्पर्वप्रयत्नेन पुरश्चर्यां समाचरेत् || 25

Any sinful one that uses the weapon without repetitive rituals will definitely become a mad person. Hence one has to perform all repetitive rituals with particular efforts. (25)

पुरश्चरेण कर्मेषु असमर्थो भवेद्यदि
ग्रहणाख्य पुरश्चर्यां वक्ष्येहं मुनिपुंगव || 26

I am telling about the repetitive procedure during eclipse periods, for those that are incapable to perform the repetitive rituals. Oh! Best amongst the seers! It is worthy of knowing. (26)

ग्रहणे सूर्यसोमस्य पूर्वाह्णे समुपोषितः
नद्यां समुदग्रानिन्यां नाभिमात्रजले स्थितः || 27

One has to, after fasting the day before a solar or lunar eclipse, while standing navel deep in a seaward flowing river, (27)

स्पर्शकालादितः जप्यं मोक्षकालावधि स्तथा
दशांशं तर्पये त्त्स्य तद्दशांशं हुने द्घृतैः || 28

Has to recite the mantra from onset to the end of the eclipse, has to perform tarpaņa one tenth of it and then perform fire sacrifice with ghee for one tenth times of it. (28)

शतं वार्थशतं चैव ब्राह्मणा न्भोजयेन्मुने
तोषये च्च गुरुं चात्म वित्तशाठ्यं न कारयेत्
मंत्रसिद्दि मवाप्नोति नात्र कार्या विचारणा || 29

Oh! Mytrēya! Then a feast has to be carried out for 100 or at least 50 Brahmins well-versed with Vēdas. One has to make one’s Guru happy. One should not be miserly with money. In such a way the fruits of the mantra are achieved. (29)

एवं सिद्दमनुर्म्ंत्री प्रयोगा नाचरे त्ततः
प्रयोगानंतरं चैव भोजये द्ब्राह्मणान ततः || 30

One has to use the weapon after so obtaining achievement of the mantra. Brahmins well-versed with Vēdas are to be fed. (30)

अथवान्य प्रकारेण पुरश्चरण मिष्यते
ग्रहणादिषु मोक्षांतं जपेन्मंत्रं समाहितः || 31

Otherwise, the repetitive ritual can be carried out in another way – the mantra can be recited fervently from the time of end of the eclipse. (31)

अन्ंतर तद्दशांशं क्रमाद्धोमादिकं चरेत्
ततश्च म्ंत्रसिद्दि स्यात देवता च प्र्सीदति || 32

Then, with one tenth of it has to be performed as Fire Sacrifice. Then the mantra fructifies and the Lord bestows grace. (32)

अथवा देवतारूप गुरुं भक्त्या प्र्पूजयेत्
पुरश्चरण हीनपि मंत्रसिद्दि र्न संशयः || 33

Also, otherwise, one’s guru has to be worshipped with devotion. In this method, even without repetitive ritual, the mantra will definitely fructify. (33)

एवं सधित मंत्रंतु काम्यकर्माणि साधयेत्
गुरुविश्वास हीनाय रहस्यं न प्रकाशयेत्
तस्मा त्सर्वप्रयत्नेन देयं क्त्वा परीक्षणम् || 34

Attainment of the achievement of the mantra so obtained, will definitely can bestow the desired wishes. A person without devotion to guru, should not be initiated to this secret mantra. (34)

दिग्बंधनं प्रवक्ष्यमि उग्रास्त्रस्य मुनीश्वर
ग्रहपीडा निवृत्यर्थं सवधानमना शृणु || 35

Protection of the Weapon from all Sides

Oh! Mytrēya! I am telling about the binding of the terrible weapon from all the sides. Listen with attention to this, which is meant to stall the pressure of planets (grahā). (35)

Out of those, the Hanumān weapon (Āńjanēyāstra) is the very best. (50)

वषड्वश्ये फडुच्चाटे हुं देव्षे खे च मारणे
ठ स्त्ंभे वौष डाकर्षे इत्येवं मंत्रपल्लवाः || 51

Procedure of Usage

One has to use the exclamations ‘vaşaţ’ for seeking control of others, ‘phat’ in bringing up, ‘hum’ in hating, ‘khē’ in killing, ‘ţha’ in freezing and ‘vouşaţ’ in attracting. These are known as mantrapallavas (loud exclamations of mantras). (51)

आदौ दिग्बंधनं कुर्यात पश्चा न्निवेशकर्मणि
पिशा चोच्चाटनं पश्चा त्र्पयोगनिपुणेन तु || 52

First the cardinal directions have to be frozen, then the nivēśakarma (house entry act) and then, according to application skills, piśācōţţana (driving away of spirits) has to be performed. (52)

इत्युक्ता शंभुना पूर्वं क्रियते मंत्रवेदिभिः || 53

This method, once told by Śiva, is being practiced by all the mantra exponents. (53)

क्लीं वश्ये मायाकर्षेतु य मुच्चाटे तथैव च
ह्रिं स्त्ंभे च रं विद्वेषे मारणे वं तथैव च || 54

The seed letter ‘kleem’ for controlling others’ minds, ‘yam’ in driving away the unwanted, ‘hreem’ for freezing others, ‘ram’ for vengeance,  ‘vam’ for killing, (54)

अन्यं विशेषं वक्ष्यमि मैत्रेय मुनिसत्तम
संजपे शन्वनन्नमंत्रंप्रत्यहं शतसंख्यया || 56

Ananya – Gayatree Mantra

Oh! Sage Mytrēya! I am telling about another special thing. It has to be recited as a unique (ananya) mantra 100 times a day. (56)

सहस्र संख्यां गायत्रीं पथमं प्रजपे द्भुधः
सहस्रं प्रजपे दन्ये मंत्रंतर मथ द्विज || 57

First the Gāyatree mantra has to be recited 1000 times. Oh! Mytrēya! Then the other mantras have to be recited 1000 times each. (57)

अयुतं प्रज्पे द्दिमान् गयत्रीं वेदमातरं
एवं दशगुणादिक्यं जपांश्चे द्वेदमात्रृकां
मंत्रांतरस्य जप्तस्य सिद्धिं दद्या द्दृडेप्सिताम || 58

The mother of Vēdas, Gāyatree mantra has to be recited – 10,000 times. If the Gāyatree mantra, which is recited ten times more than the other mantras, then the Anaya mantra is achieved, the desires are fulfilled. (58)

यदि नैवं कृता देवी गयत्री पूर्वसंख्यया
मंत्रांतरं चिरं जप्तं क्ष्णे नैवंं भविष्यति || 59

If the Gāyatree nabtrais not recited by the earlier told numbers (as told earlier), the ananya mantra does not get achieved right away, however long one may recite. (59)

तस्मात्सर्वप्रयत्नेन प्रत्य्हं मुनिसत्तम
सहस्रं वा शतं वापि अष्टाविंशति मेव वा
गायत्रींं प्रजपे द्दीमान् न चातो न्यूनतो भवेत् || 60

Oh! Sage Mytrēya! Hence, always, with efforts, the Gāyatree mantra has to be recited daily 1000 or 100 or 28 times. It should not be less than that. (60)

न गायत्र्याः परो मंत्रो न मातुः परदैवतं
न विवेकात्परो बंंधुः इति वेदविदो विद्ः || 61

There is no manta better than the Gyratee mantra like, there is no God better than the mother, no better relative than the discretion (between good and bad); so tell Vēda scholars. (61)

गयत्रीं बहुधा जप्त्वा सिद्दिं प्रप्नोति जापकः || 62

The reciter gets fulfilment of the mantra via reciting the Gāyatree mantra several times. (62)

सहस्रपरमां देवीं शतम्ध्यां दशापरां
त्रिसंध्यं च जपे न्नितत्यं गयत्रीं वेदमातरम् || 63

The Vēdamatā Gāyatree has to be recited three times daily 1000 times in the morning, 100 times in the afternoon and 10 times in the evening. (63)

गयत्रीं स्वल्पकृत्वा तु तन्मंत्रां भक्षये द्भुदः || 64

If Gāyatree is recited less, it will eat up the mantras being recited by the reciter. (64)

मंत्रातरं प्रवक्ष्यामि शृणुष्व मुनिपुंगव
त्रयोविंश त्यक्षरोयं मंत्राणा मुत्तमोत्तमम् || 65

Oh! Best of the Seers! I am telling about another mantra. Listen. This 23-Lettered (trayōvinsatyakşarā) mantra is the best of all the mantras. (65)

अस्य श्री हनुमंत्रराज महामंत्रस्य अगस्त्यभगवान् रुशिः गयत्री छंदः श्री हनुमा न्देवता ओं बीज स्वाहा शक्तिः नमः कीलकं मम सक्लाभीष्ट सिद्ध्यर्थे जपे विनियोग्ः || 66

For this King of mantras onHanumān, Agastya is the sage, Gāyatree is the meter, ŚreeHanumān is the God, ‘Ōm’ is the seed, ‘swāhā’ is the power, ‘namah’ is the key and the utility of the recitation is for achievement of all the desired wishes. (66)

न्यासम्
ओं अंगुष्ठभ्यां नमः, नमो भगवते तर्जनीभ्यां नमः, आम्जनेयाय मध्यमाभ्यां नमः, महाबलाय अनामिकाभ्यां नमः हुनमते कनिष्ठिकाभ्यां नमः स्वहा करतल करपृष्ठाभ्यां नमः एवं हृदयऐन्यासः

Nyāsah

The body touching (ańganyāsa) and hand gesticulations (karanyāsa) have to be performed thus – ańgusţhabhyāmnamah, namōbhagavatētarjaneebhyāmnamah, Ańjanēyāyamadhyamābhyāmnamah, mahābalāyaanāmikābhyāmnamah, Hanūmatēkanişţikābhyāmnamah, swāhākaratalakarapŗşţābhyāmnamah, ēvamhŗdayādinyāsah.

मौंजीरत्न विचित्रकुंडल लस त्कौपीन कृष्णाजिनं
वज्रपाय महाबलं कपिवरं श्रीरामसेवारतम् || 67

Dhyānam

I bow to Hanumān, one similar in brilliance to the rising sun, the one that dents the pride of demons, the one with lotus feet that are worshipped by Dēvēndra and other divine personalities, the one that removed the sorrow of mother Seetā completely, the one with a girdle made of munja grass – strange diamond studded ear hangings – shining loin cloth and deer skin, the one mightily powerful as the diamond weapon (of Indra), the best one amongst the monkeys,  and the one always ready to serve Lord ŚreeRāma. (67)

आदौ प्रणव मुच्चार्य नमो भगवते पदं
आंजनेीयाय शब्दं च महावल पदं ततः || 68

The Mantra

Uttering first the cosmic sound (praņava) ‘Ōm’, then ‘namōnhagavatē’, then the word (in the 4^th case) ‘Āńjanēyāya’ and then the word ‘mahābalā’, (68)

यकार मुच्चरे द्दीमान् पश्चाद्दनुमते पदं
वह्निजायांं स्मुच्चार्य मंत्रराज इत स्मृतः || 69

Then utter the letter ‘ya’, i.e., mahābalāya. Then say ‘Hanumatē’, concluding with ‘swāhā’. (69)

त्रयोविंश त्यक्षराढ्यो मंत्रोय मिति कथ्यते
हनुम न्मंत्रजालेषु जपतां शीघ्रसिद्दिदः || 70

This is told as the great mantra of 23 letters. Amongst the group of Hanumanmantras this one gives results right away. (70)

पुरश्चर्या क्रमं वक्ष्ये लक्षत्रय मतंदितं
तर्पणं तद्दशांशं तु नियमेन समाचरेत् || 71

I am telling about the repetitive ritual. To be formed with order are 300,000 recitations. Of it one tenth have to be carried out with tarpaņa ritual. (71)

तद्दशांशं हुने द्वैद्वान् पायसं तिमधुप्लुतं
पम्चविंशति संख्याकान् ब्राह्मणान् भोजये त्ततः || 72

One tenth of the tarpaņa has to be carried out along with fire sacrifice. Then 25 vēda-versed Brāhmins have to be offered a feast. (72)

गुरुपूजा विशेषेण कर्तव्या मंत्रवेदिभिः
एवं यः कुरुते योगी मंत्रसिद्दि र्भवे न्नृणाम् || 73

Mantra-Ministers have to perform worship of the Guru especially. Only the one that does so controlling mind and actions, will be attaining the fruits of the mantra. (73)

मध्य मानामि कांगष्टे हृदयाय नमो न्यसेत् अथोमुखांगुष्ठाग्रे शिरसे स्वाहा अंगुष्ठ मध्य मानामिकाभिः शिखायै वषट् करद्वयांगिळिभिः कंठादि नाभि पर्यंतं कवचाय हुं तर्जनी मध्य मानामिका नेत्रत्रयाय वौषट् करद्वयांगुष्ठ मध्यमा ध्यनिना दिक्षु अस्त्रायफट् इति हृदयन्यासः || 74

One has to perform nyāsa by touching the heart region with the middle and ring fingers and thumb. Showing the head by touching in its middle with the tip of the (lower end) thumb, showing the knot of hair with the thumb, middle and ring fingers, showing the guard (kavaca) from the neck to the navel with the fingers of both the hands, showing the eyes with the index, middle and the ring fingers and making sound with the thumb and middle fingers of both the hands – one has to perform the hŗdayanyāsa (heart touching ritual). (74)

चतुर्वर्णेयस्तु हृदयं चर्भि श्शिर उच्यते
पंचभि श्च शिखायां तु त्रिभिः कवच मेव च
नेत्रत्रयं चतुर्भि श्च अस्त्रं शेषांगकं विदुः || 75

The additional nyāsa touching are performed as per the Guru’s instruction by touching the heart in four manners, similarly the head, the tuft of hair with five, the kavaca with three and the three eyes with four (ways). (75)

इत्थं गायत्री मंत्रस्य अंगन्यासादिकं विदुः
दह्स प्रणवयुक्ता श्च प्राणायामा श्चतुर्दश
मुच्यते ब्रह्महत्यायाः किं पुन श्शेषपातकैः || 76

This is told as the additional nyāsa for the Gayatree mantra. Then ten cosmic resonances (Ōm) and controlled breathing (prāņāyāma) fourteen times, have to be carried out. By doing this, one gets freed from the sin of killing a Brāhmin. What is the need to tell about other sins? (76)

इति पराशरसंहितायां पराशर मैत्रेय संवादे संतान हनुमंत्र प्रभाव अस्त्रप्रयोूग कथनं नाम अशीतिः पटलः

Thus ends the 80^thChapter “The Story of the Impact of Using the Weapon-like Child-Bestowing Hanumanmantra”
