Kismatkarma Meditation

At Kismatkarma we understand meditation is an ancient technique for relaxing, and it comes in a variety of forms. Some focus on breathing; others on an object, like a flame or a bowl of water. Mindfulness meditation adds on the directive to be attentive to feelings of gratitude and not to be a mean person. There’s even a form that makes the orgasm the focus in reaching a meditative state.

For Getting the right match and also longing for making marriages work, people try various methods, with no benefit.

We believe one of the many reasons this tends to happen if there is a lot of negative energy around the person. If you are suffering from negative energy and feel this is blocking your relationship, then we recommend Distant Meditations for you:

The best remedy for early marriage or the best remedy for marriage problems is Maa Katyayani Vrat or Gauri Vrat .This vrat has been mentioned in Bhagwad Mahapuran 10th canto (skandha) 22nd chapter The Bhagavata Purana describes the legend of Katyayani Vrata, where young marriageable daughters (gopis) of the cowherd men of Gokula in Braja, worshipped Goddess Katyayani (Goddess Durga) and took a vrata or vow, during the entire month of Margashirsha, the first month of the winter season, to get Lord Krishna as their husband. During the month, they ate only unspiced khichri, and after bathing in the Yamuna at sunrise, made an earthen deity of the Goddess on the riverbank, and worshipped the idol of Goddess Durga by whose grace they were blessed with Lord Krishna as their husband after completion of this vrat. The fasting, called Katyayani vrata or Gauri Vrat is made for a whole month in the month of Marghashirsha.
.
The complete Katyayani vrat katha (Gauri Vrat Katha ) , Katyayani vrat vidhi (Gauri Vrat vidhi )  has been Mentioned in Brahma vaivartha puran in Krishna Janma Khanda Chapter 27 .Lord Narayan himself narrates the story behind this to Lord Narada and mentions that this vrat is called Gauri vrat.So Gauri  vrat and Katyayani vrat are one and the same and is observed in order to please Goddess Katyayani i.e. Goddess Durga.

This vrat was also observed by Devi Sita (who was the embodied form of Devi Lakshmi)  who was blessed by Devi Durga and was able to marry Prabhu Shri Ram.(Who is the  embodied form of Lord Narayan).

In Satyug Devi Sita, Radha and Gopikas had worshiped Devi Durga for the entire month of Marghashirsha and then they were blessed with Lord Krishna as their husband. So now in Kaliyug where adharma prevails, in order to please Devi, I will suggest that this Katyayani Devi Pooja should be done not only in the month of marghshirsha, but till the time you find your appropriate partner. Also in today’s busy life style it is very difficult to implement the intricate methodologies of Vrat Anushthan. Hence I am describing as to how you can be benefited by just following simple worship methodologies. It is also worth mentioning that not only does this vrat benefit females who want to get married or who want to come out of marriage related problems, but it also benefits men. This remedy  is also a very powerful tool to fulfil all your desires pertaining to health, wealth and happiness suggested by Lord Narayan himself.

At Kismatkarma we are holding special meditations as we understand that sometimes there are negative vibrations around us which stop us from receiving the benefits of our good deeds. We have had many cases, where out clients have mentioned that in the past they have followed many remedies, however, nothing has worked for them.

You can achieve maximum benefits if this meditation is done in the month of Marghashirsha because there is a great importance of Lord Krishna in this month. The Lord himself says that he is the Margashirsha month out of all the months. The below shlokam tells about the significance and spiritual importance of margasheersha maas in Bhagwad Geeta Chapter-10,verse-35

Bruhatsama thatha samnam
Gayatri Chandasamaham
Masanam Margashoham
Ruthunam Kusumakarna

It means - Lord Krishna says "I, myself, stay in Bruhathsama in the Samaveda, Gayatri in Chandassu or literature, Margashirsha or Margashira in months and Vasant rithu in rithus or seasons".

Margashirsha maas or Margashira masam is the ninth month as per traditional Hindu calendar. It is believed as one of the auspicious months for Hindus. In Puranas, Margashirsha maas is mentioned as 'Maasonam Margashirshoham' which means there is no auspicious month as Margashiram.
However,you can start whenever you have the desire to surrender to the bhakti of Goddess Durga. In order to derive the benefits of this remedy follow the below mentioned steps.

Maa Katyayani Vrat (Gauri Vrat) vidhi or procedure, Maa Katyayani vrat or Gauri Vrat has four main parts 

Step 1 –Dhyan :- Establish the Idol of Goddess Durga and offer your devotion.Visualise the divine form of Goddess Durga and narrate your wishes. It is important to ask Devi to take you under Her Divine protection and to always be pleased with you.

Step 2 -Daily Chanting  : - After this, recite the following mantra 10 Malas or rounds. (Each Mala has 108 beeds.So you would be reciting this for almost more than 1000 times).However if you are unable to do 10 malas, please recite it as per your convenience.

Mantra: Om Shri Durgayai Sarvavighna vinashinyai namah.

Step 3 – Daily Durga Stuti – This stuti was done by Lord Brahma when he was being troubled by Madhu and Kaitabha. Radha along with all the Vraj Gopikas also recited this Stuti for pleasing Goddess Durga.This Stuti is called Jai Durga Stotra.

How To Observe Vat Gouri Vrata

According to legends, Goddess Parvati had carried out intense austerities (tapas) in order to get Lord Shiva as her husband. Since then, unmarried females have been observing this fast on the pretext of obtaining an ideal and devoted husband, just like Lord Shiva. Gauri Parvati Vrat is observed for five days beginning on the Ekadashi day in the month of Ashada in the waxing phase of the moon. The fast ends on the day of Purnima. A partial fast is observed wherein the girls perform pujas for Goddess Parvati. A unique tradition is followed during this course of five days. All females observing Gauri Vrata grow corn shoots in a small pot. The tender corn shoots emerging along with Lord Surya (sun) are worshipped during the day, not to forget Goddess Parvati. While considering the food to be consumed during the five-day fast, salt is strictly prohibited. Only wheat flour, ghee and milk are used for preparing food. However, different fruits can be consumed as well. On Purnima day to end the vrat, girls perform a ‘cow puja’ and also bid farewell to Goddess Parvati.

Nepal Earthquake Appeal

As the days pass, the devastation caused by Saturday's earthquake in Nepal continues. The danger of falling buildings is now joined by the many other complications that follow such disasters; lack of food and shelter and the growing risk of disease caused by poor sanitation.

As many of you have heard through various media, on Saturday 25 April a massive 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal. It severely shook the lives of at least 5.3m people and left many homeless.  Nepal’s major cities, including the capital Kathmandu, have been badly damaged and rural areas near the epicentre have been completely cut off by avalanches.

Already over 3000 people have been confirmed dead and the figure is likely to rise significantly in the coming days. Even those whose homes are still standing are sleeping in the streets because they are terrified by regular aftershocks. So many people have lost everything.

The Thai New Year

The Thai New Year

Songkran is known as "the Water Festival"

Thais believe that water will wash away bad luck, and spend the day liberally splashing water on each other.

Songkran actually begins on April 13, the end of the old year, and concludes on the 15th, the first day of the New Year.

Three Days of Songkran
For Thais, Songkran is a time for purification – houses are cleaned and Buddha statues washed, while younger folk pay their respects to their seniors by respectfully pouring scented water on their hands.
This tradition washes away bad thoughts and actions, especially when words of blessing are uttered.
On the first day of Songkran, Wan Sungkharn Long, Thais visit Buddhist temples to make merit: they give alms and food to monks. Thais also clean out their houses, sweeping out the old to prepare for the year to come.

On the second day, Wan Nao, Thais carry sand into the temple grounds and build small pagodas called chedis to make merit. The temples in their turn bring out

The third day, Wan Payawan, is the official first day of the New Year. Images of the Buddha are washed with scented water… and on the streets, the fun really begins.

Our beliefs are just learned thought patterns that we have developed early since childhood, many of these work well for us, but others may now be working against us, they are dysfunctional and may be sabotaging us from achieving what we believe we want. Every affirmation we think or say is a reflection of our inner truth or beliefs. It is important to realize that many of these "inner truths" may not actually be true for us now or may be based on invalid or inappropriate impressions we constructed as children, which if examined as an adult can be exposed as inappropriate.

Akshay Tritiya 2015

Akshay Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is celebrated on the third day of Shukla Paksha (bright fortnight) of the vedic month of Vaisakha. 

www.kismatkarma.com

Akshaya Tritiya and Parashurama Jayanti occurs on the same day. Parshurama Jayanti is observed as the birthday of Lord Parashurama, sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu.

Akshaya means 'never diminishing', and same is Akshaya Tritiya's significance in Hindu Calendar. If we go by the lunar calendars of Jains and Hindus, each year witnesses either an addition or missing out of some days (Tithi). But, the day of Akshaya Tritiya or Akha Teej is never absent from the lunar calendar.

Akshaya Tritiya 2015 is also known as Parashuram Jayanti 

As per the Puranas, Parashuram was born at Renuka Tirth, as Lord Vishnu's sixth Avatar (incarnation). He was named as Ramabhadra, but after a significant occurrence, he got the epithet of Parashuram. 

The legend suggests...

Ramabhadra was an ardent follower of Lord Shiva. Considering his perpetual dedication, Lord Shiva was pleased and gifted him with a divine responsibility to liberate Mother Goddess from demons. He was presented divine weapons by Shiva that included an axe-shaped weapon, Parashu. This altered his name from Rama to Parashurama (Rama with axe). Akshaya Tritiya is observed as the day when Parashurama was born.

Akshay Tritiya 2015: Mahabharata

This day marks the commencement of Satya Yuga (Golden Age). It is also believed that Ved Vyasa started writing Mahabharata along with Ganesha on the day of Akshaya Tritiya.

www.kismatkarma.com 

While on exile, Pandavas were gifted 'Akshay Patra' by Lord Krishna, the bowl of food that would never go empty. This was the day of Akshay Tritiya or Akha Teej.

Akshay Tritiya 2015: Krishna-Sudama 

This legend is believed to be one of the most significant ones, associated with the celebration of Akshaya Tritiya. Lord Krishna had a poor Brahmin friend, Sudama. Once, on the day of Akshaya Tritiya, Krishna got visited by Sudama. The purpose for his visit was to ask for some financial help from Krishna.

Akshaya Tritiya legend owes to the story of Krishna-Sudama.Sudama was welcomed in a grand fashion by his friend, which embarrassed him even more. Though he was treated with benevolence, Sudama was ashamed of not being capable to present his friend anything, but some Poha (beaten rice). Krishna did not care to mend his attitude toward the bond of friendship and relished the Poha gifted by his dear friend.

www.kismatkarma.com

Being overwhelmed by the treatment, Sudama could not ask for anything more from Krishna. Hence, he returned home empty handed. On his return, Sudama found his hut transformed into an abode of royalty and everything appeared grand. It was a boon by Lord Krishna that Sudama attained much more than financial help. Since then, the day is celebrated as Akshaya Tritiya. 

Kismatkarma will conduct the following meditations as part of the Akshaya Tritya Meditations: 

Akshaya Tritiya 2015: Kismatkarma Gaja Meditation

Kismatkarma Gaja Meditation is also known as Kismatkarma Gaja Dhanakarshana Meditation. Gaja means 'elephant', and hence, in this meditation, elephants are our focus for the sustenance of wealth and prosperity in our lives. http://www.kismatkarma.com/akshey-tritiya-2015/ 

Akshaya Tritiya 2015: Ashwa Meditation

Ashwa (horse) is considered to be the disciple of Mars (planet), which represents command and energy. On the day of Akshay Tritiya, Ashwa Meditation is performed to bring home positivity and mental peace. http://www.kismatkarma.com/akshey-tritiya-2015/ 

Akshaya Tritiya 2015: Gou Meditation

Gou (cow) is the symbol of kindness, love and warmth; hence, Gou or cow is our focus on the day of Akshay Tritiya. http://www.kismatkarma.com/akshey-tritiya-2015/ 

Akshaya Tritiya 2015: Mahalakshmi Meditation

Mahalakshmi Meditation is also performed on this day. Maa Sundara Mahalakshmi is our focus on Akshaya Tritiya, exhibiting the 64 Avatars of Goddess Lakshmi. Dr Arti Jangra conducts Mahalakshmi meditation and we chant 1008 names of Lakshmi Maa. http://www.kismatkarma.com/akshey-tritiya-2015/

Kismatkarma Shri Ram Chalisa

Kismatkarma Shri Ram Chalisa

Ganapati charan saroj gahi, Charanodak dhari bhal,
Likhau vimal Ramavali, sumiri Anjanilal.

I gracefully clasp and wash the feet of Shri Ganesh Ji and pay reverence to him by annointing my forehead and now commence writing praises of Shri Ramchandra Ji whilst meditating on Anjani's son, Shri Hanuman Ji.

Ram charit varnan Karaun, Ramahin hridai manai,
Madan kadan ral rakhishir, man kahan tap mitai

I praise the deeds of Shri Ramchandra Ji after invoking him into my heart and bowing at the feet of Shri Shiva Ji, who destroyed Kamdeo (Cupid), so that the impurities and errors of my heart be destroyed.

Ram Ramapati Raghupati jai jai,
Maha-Lokpati Jagpati jai jai.
Rajit Janak dulari jai jai,
Mahinandan Prabhu-pyari jai jai.

Praise and glory to You, Shri Ramchandra Ji. You are Lord of Lakshmi and of the house of the Raghus. Glory, all glory to you Lord of Maha Lakshmi and of all the spheres and of the world. Praise and glory be to King Janaka's daughter, Sita Ji who is the delight and daughter of Mother Earth and Your beloved consort.

Ratihun divas Ram dhun jahi
Magan rahat man, tan dukh nahin.
Ram saneh jasu ur hoi
Maha bhagyashali nar soi.

Wherever You are praised there shall be no bodily suffering or pain. Those who develop love for You in their hearts, are very fortunate.

Rakshas dal sanhari jai jai
Maha patit tanu tari jai jai.
Ram nam jo nishdin gavat
Man vachhit phal nishchai pavat.

Hey! Shri Ramchandra Ji, destroyer of demons and their armies ... including Ravana, Tadaka, Maricha, Subahu, Viradha and a host of others ... all glory to Thee. You are the most merciful deliverer of the lowest of the low ... as Sabari (member of the Sabaris tribe), Guha (a Nisada ... low born tribe in early India) and others. Thus, those who daily chant, recite or sing the Your praise, hey Shri Ramchandra Ji, You grant them their heart's desire.

Ramayudhsar jehin kar sajat
Man manoj lakhi kotihun lajat.
Rakhahu laj hamari jai jai
Mahima agam tumhari jai jai.

I behold Shri Ramchandra Ji, armed with his bow and arrow appears so splendid and charming that He surpasses the charm of myriads of Cupids, and I pray: "Hey! Shri Ramchandra Ji do keep my honour. Glory be Yours. Glory be Yours, whose majesty is incomparable. Glory be Yours."

Rajiv nayan munin man mohin
Mukut manohar shir par sohai.
Rajit mridal gat shuchi anan
Makarakrit kundal duhun kanan.

Hey Shri Ramchandra Ji, Your lotus-eyes fascinate even the Munis and Rishis; Your head adorned with a lustrous crown and the brilliance of Your face and tender body. I behold too, hey! Shri Ramchandra Ji Your no less brilliant, crocodile shaped pendants, on Your ears.

Ramchandra sarvottam jai jai
Maryada Purshottum jai jai
Ram nam gun agam ananta
Manan karat sharad shruti santa.

Hey Bhagwan, Shri Ramchandra Ji! You are the greatest of those who have taken form on earth, glory be to Thee. Thy name, Hey, Shri Ramchandra Ji! has boundless and immeasurable virtues and is contemplated upon by all including the Vedas, Munis, Rishis and Sarswati.

Rati divas dhyavahu man Rama
Man ranjan bhanjan bhav dama.
Raj bhavan, sang men nahin jaihain
Man ke hi man men rahi jaihain

My own mind that rambles ... wander from thought to thought ... all the time, must be brought under control to meditate, night and day, on the Your changeless form, so that my earthly desires that burn ceaseless within me could be subdued, since the kingly palace of which I dream will not accompany me in the end, but remain as an unfullfilled desire.

Ramhi nam ant sukh daihain
Man gadhant gap kam na aihain.
Ram kahani Ramahin sunihain
Mahima Ram tabai man gunhain.

Hey Shri Ramchandra Ji! Your name, RAMA, brings peace and love and comfort on the ultimate journey; when earthly pleasures pursued and dreamt about will not be of any avail or use ... for these are but a mirage, but deeds performed will be heard by Shri Ramchandra Ji and the righteousness of those deeds will be counted.

Ramhi mahan jo nit chit rakhihain
Madhukar saris madhur ras chakhihain.
Rag rang kahun kirtan thanihain
Mamta tyagi ek ras janihain.

Those who uphold and meditate on Shri Ramchandra Ji's glorious deeds in their hearts at all times are the ones who will get the honeyed taste of Rama as bees do from the pollen of flowers. Then the glorification of Shri Ramchandra Ji's name, Rama would be realised and the process of detachment from earthly attachments commence.

Ram kripa tinhin par hvai hain
Man vanchhit phal abhimal paihain.
Rakshas daman kiyo jo chhan men
Maha banhu bani vicharyo vana men.

On those who adopt such a path, Shri Ramchandra Ji, the compassionate and merciful, would shower his blessings and fulfill their desires. Recall that Shri Ramchandra Ji defeated the demons in a blink, just as massive trees are reduced to ashes in a forest wildfire.

Ravanadi hati gati, dai dinhyo
Mahi Ravanahin Siya vadh kinhyo.
Ram ban sut sursari dhara
Maha patkihun gati dai dara.

Shri Ramchandra Ji killed Ravana and his host and yet sent them to His celestial abode. He also killed Mahiravana of the lower regions. Rama's arrows are like the waters of the Ganges, it purifies and redeems the vilest of sinners.

Ram ramit jag amit ananta
Mahima kahi na sakahin shruti santa.
Ram nam joi det bhulai.
Maha nisa soi leta bulai

Omnipresent Shri Ramchandra Ji permeates the infinite and endless world ... He is within and without the Universe ... and this state of Shri Ramchandra Ji's seemingly phenomenon continues to elude description by the scriptures or even the saint and sages. Those who forget the name of the omnipresent, Shri Ramchandra Ji summon utter ignorance of His virtues that illuminate the path of life's journey.

Ram bina ur hota andhera
man sohi dukh sahat ghanera.
Ramahi adi anadi kahavat
Mahavrti Shankar-gun gavat.

Without Shri Ramchandra Ji's presence in our hearts, all seems dark and the mind suffers untold frustration ... in troubled times one feels so helpless, hopeless and very much alone, this is moreso where hearts filled with earthly desires left no room for the Supreme Atma to peek even a single ray of light, within. One need to understand that it is Shri Ramchandra Ji who is the beginning and beginningless at the same time and it is His praise Shri Shiva Ji and the Devas sing.

Ram nam lahi Brahma apara
Mahikar bhar shesh shir dhara.
Rakhi Ramhiya Shambhu sujana
Maha ghor vish kinhyo pana.

Brahma, the creative aspect of the Supreme Being has become fathomless with the chanting of the name of Shri Ramchandra Ji. Sesa narg ... the serpent king ... too, was able to uphold the earth's burden on its head. Sambhu ... Shri Shiva Ji ... with Rama's form embedded in his heart, gulped down the jar of poison that emerged during the churning of the sea by the joint effort of the assuras and devas.

Ramahi mahi-lakhi lekh Maheshu
Maha pujya kari diyo Ganeshu.
Ram ramit ras gatit bhakti ghat
Man ke bhajatahin khulat prem pat.

... Having observed the name of Rama scribbled on the earth, the great Lord Shiva made Ganesh highly venerable (so much so that all ceremonies begin with worship his worship). The bliss filling the heart with devotion to Rama is all pervaded by Him. Chanted with profound interest it opens up the gates of devotional love.

Rajit Ram jinahin ur antar
Mahavir sam bhakta nirantar.
Ramahi linha ek sahara
Maha sindhu Kapi kinha para.

When Shri Ramchandra Ji reigns in the heart of anyone, that person becomes devoted to Rama as Mahavira (Hanuman). Those who seek refuge in Shri Ramchandra Ji, crosses the oceans of trials and tribulations as did Mahavira ... Hanuman with Rama in his heart crossed the ocean on his way to Sri Lanka in search of Sita Mataa ... and thus escapes the cycle of birth and death.

Ram nam rasna ras shobha
Mardan kam krodh mad lobha.
Ram charit bhaji bhayo sugyata
Mahadeva mukti ke data.

Chanting Your name, Rama sweetens the tongues taste and eradicates the four deadly sins ... lust, anger, arrogance and greed ... that leads to moral downfall. By chanting Rama's deeds, Mahadeva (Siva) became a saviour and liberator, to bestow moksh .. salvation.

Ramahi japat mitat bhav shula
Ram mantra yah mangal mula.
Ram nam japi jo na sudhara
Man pishach so nipat ganvara.

Chanting of Shri Ramchandra Ji's praise destroys all wordly distress. The source of all happiness and well-being is His mantra, Om Shri Ramchandra Ji aaya namaa. Those who do not seek refuge in Him, even by chanting his name, Rama, has develish ways and is utterly ignorant.

Ram ki mahima kahan lag gaun
mati malin man par na paun.
Ramavali as likhi chalisa
Mati anusar dhyan Gaurisa.

To what extent shall I sing praises of Shri Ramchandra Ji's deeds? I am so dull-witted and surely cannot fathom the immeasurable depth of His deeds, yet I have tried to recite His deeds in this Chalisa with my mind centered on Shri Shiva Ji, the beloved consort of Gauri.

Ramahi sundar rachi ras paga
Math Durvasa nikat Prayaga.
Ram bhakt yahin jo nit dhyavahin
Man vanchhit phal nischai pavahin.

In Durvasa hermit, near Prayag in Allahabad, I Sundardasa composed this Chalisa, knowing that those who recite this Chalisa with devotion everyday, shall be rewarded with what they desire most.

Doha
Ram nam nit bhajahu man, ratihun din chitlai.
Mamta matsar malinata, manastap miti jai.

I pray that my mind with unwavering devotion meditate on Shri Ramchandra Ji's name so that I may detach myself from jealousy, dullness and sufferings.

Ram ka tithi budh Rohini, Ramavali kiyabhas.
Man sahastra bhuj drug samat, magsar Sundardas.
