DrMeenakshi Gupta DrMeenakshi Gupta, Doctor & Facilitator- YES!+, Happiness Pgrm& Yoga (2000-prese nt) Written 30 Jan What is Soundarya Lahari? Why is it important in Shridevi s worship? Soundarya Lahari is a powerful divine prayer(stotra) partly revealed and partly composed by Great Universal Master Shri Shankara Bhagavatpadah to express the de votion and praise the beauty of Devi Mahatripura Sundari. This stotra is a devot ional hymn loaded with beautiful literary ornaments(alankaras). It has more than thirty two commentaries on it by famous spiritual Masters. That alone says it a ll about its extraordinary significance! Each shloka (verse) is an extremely powerful mantra and has deeper tantricmeanin gs and effects. Every shloka has its own yantra(mystical diagram) and specific m ethod of chanting along with offerings to please Tripura Sundari Devi to achieve a definite goal as described in our Scriptures. Soundarya Lahari has one hundred shlokasin total. First 41 shlokas are together called Ananda Lahari(Wave of Bliss). They deal with Shrividya way of worship tha t includes construction of Srichakra diagram,Kundalini Yoga and mantras(includin g a powerful fifteen syllable mantra of Shri Lalita Mahatripura Sundari calledpa nchadshakshari mantra). This is why this hymn is of paramount importance in the worship of Shri Lalita form of Shridevi. The next 59 shlokas(viz. Shlokas 42-100) form the second part called Soundarya L ahari. This section describes the beauty of Shridevi from head to toe in finer d etails, exhausting almost all literary ornamentation(alankaras) in Sanskrit Lang uage! In practice, however, entire hymn of 100 slokas is referred to asSoundarya Lahari(Wave of Beauty). 696 Views View Upvotes Arjun Subrahmanian Arjun Subrahmanian, Been about 3 years since I've been doing sadhana and reading spiritual books. Written 15 May 2016 I don't know of any specific effects. But if you're gonna be chanting only for t he results, you should think again. And as of the text itself, it's about the Divine Mother, so if you try to unders tand the meaning while chanting it, it will help you. Primarily you should chant out of love for God. In the beginning, it is okay to "fake it till you make it". 1.7k Views View Upvotes Answer requested by Sai Dattathrani Vijay Bhardwaj Vijay Bhardwaj, works at Aress Software and Education Technologies pvt Limited Written 23 Jan Saundarya lahari contains more than 100 slokas and there is pooja required while chanting it. The background poojas are tantric vidhis based on Shri Yantram. It is basically Kundalini Shakti pooja. I will suggest to find some expert who will guide to do this pooja. Don't try it yourself by reading books. In Hindu religion if you find something is related t o Kundalini then it is serious matter and must tak proper guidance. So Saundarya lahari is not something chanting daily with routine work. 578 Views Answer requested by Rashmi Chavan Related Questions Is it proven by research that chanting of the Gayatri mantra has effect on a baby inside the womb?
