Swayamvara Parvathi stotram: Mantra to marry Bride or Groom of your choice

Sairam friends,

Swayamvara Parvathi stotram can be recited to be blessed with a peaceful married life and also to marry bride or groom of your choice. I had to write few experiences before the mantra especially since I want people to live strong internally and believe that Goddess only will do good to us. This mantra also a blessing for husband and wife to live in harmony.

I had to think over a lot before deciding to posting this Sacred Mantra in Praise of Goddess Parvathi who did tapas to marry her beloved Lord Shiva.  Right from 2004, I used to get mails from Sai devotees asking me to show a way to marry the one they love. In countries like India, Marriages happens through the choice of parents and we think that’s the norm and accept it. If we look into the past, even thousands of years back, the Kings gave rights to his daughter to choose to marry the one she loves through Swayamvara.

Most of the marriages doesn’t happen especially because of Caste and family status issues and sometimes due to misunderstanding between the couples themselves. I have seen so many people having pride of the caste they are born and consider everyone else lower than them.  You can take caste into account but beyond that is one’s devotion, purity of mind, honesty and good nature as a whole.

To tell you the truth, I get irritated these days when anyone writes me asking if there’s a mantra to marry the one I love. I try not to reply especially since I don’t like to create expectations in anyone’s mind.

“Relationships are like two wooden logs floating in a river and remains together. A wooden log is near another wooden log for few days and when the water flows more forcefully, it moves away. Similarly, we must be able to live strong when someone dear to us breaks away from us. “

In 2007, I created A relationship blessing site for Sai devotees – StarSai.net

And I have been guiding youngsters for several years through my articles and only handful of them actually made use of what I try to do. My advice always has been this.

When you are going through pain in relationship, hold on to it, worship, pray and do pooja to be blessed with a peaceful life you desire. But it must not hurt you when your desire is not fulfilled.

The moment you realized its giving you unbearable pain, Be detached, come out of the past and be devoted to God. May be God has a better plans for you.

Few girls have clearly understood my guidance, they were able to come out of past and now are happily married. I can’t be doing counseling to everyone and I am also not the right person to guide when I myself don’t know what’s going to happen in my life.

All I do is to inspire people to take the path of devotion.

Swayamvara Parvathi stotram

Swayamvara Parvathi stotram is a very beautiful Stotra followed by Swayamvara Parvathi mantra. The translation is done by one of my very kind elderly friend P.R.Ramachander. I am posting this Swayamvara Parvathi Mantra courtesy of Ramachanderji for the welfare of everyone.

It is believed that Reciting this mantra every morning will surely bless us with peaceful married life and also bless us with happiness.

Note: Sanskrit is a beautiful sacred language and hence when you listen or sing a mantra in Sanskrit it looks very beautiful. When its translated, you might wonder if this is what written in holy mantra? It is. This mantra portrays the love Goddess Parvathi has on Lord Shiva. Only if you have patience to read it, you will feel how blissful it is. I also want people to recite this Mantra only if they are ready to accept what ever happens in life and live strong. Don’t say you chanted this mantra and desires were not fulfilled.

My personal experience is, When I recited this mantra, I felt very divine and blissful and I know Ma Parvathi cares for me. She will surely do what’s good for me.

Swayamvara Parvathi stotram

(Prayer to Parvathi seeking to marry the husband of her choice)

By

Sage Durwasa

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

(Goddess Parvathi, the daughter of Himalayas did thapas addressed to Lord Shiva so that she can marry him. This great prayer is addressed to her. The first letter of the first 45 slokas of this prayer is used to form the “Swayamavara (free choice of one’s consort)  Manthra” given at the end of this prayer. Regular reading of the prayer followed by meditation on the Swayamvara Manthra is supposed to help one to marry the bride/groom that they are looking for.)

Om Bandhooka varnaam arunam sugathram,

Shambhum samudhisya sanairupetam,

We salute you Mother Parvathi,

Who is red like the flower of Bandhooka tree,

Who is having a healthy body,

Who does penance directed to please Shiva,

Who is as soft as the lotus flower,

Who fulfills all desires,

And who is like the wish giving tree.

The anklets making the sound “Hreem” while you walk,

And your bangles which make the sound “Kilu kila”,

And the childhood plays you engaged yourself ,

In your palace situated in the mountains,

Bless us with good life and fulfill our desires.

Oh Goddess who is the darling Of Lord Shiva

Who became Lalitha by your penance while you were a lass,

Whose neck shines with various garlands that you wear,

And whose waist is decorated by the belt made of gold ,

We salute you by falling at your feet, with our head touching them.

Giryalpa mugdha vishadham nava youvanam sree,

Badhnami Thatha gruha kandhuka khelanam they. 5

We consecrate in our mind that form of yours,

When you play ball in your father’s house,

With constantly moving ear drops,

With face coated with tinge of sweat,

With your hair getting loose and waving here and there,

With your glances shifting with the ball,

With loud laughter , with sound of your bangles,

And with your very tall moving breasts.

Yogeswaram prachura bhakthi gireeesa maraa.

Dhekantha vaethinamupethya thapascharantham,

Aakamkshaya pari charishnumanakulaam thwam,

Ye kechidheeswari bhajanthi tha yeva dhanya. 6

For fulfillment of our desires, we worship you Goddess,

Who went to Lord Shiva with extreme devotion,

Who did solitary penance and meditation,

With anxiety and did service to him with a pleasant mien.

Karyasthapo vidhadhi kusalaani bhoobruth,

Paryaya peena kucha kumbha vishumbhadangi. 7

Our salutations to you Oh pretty daughter of the mountain,

Who felt insulted and sorrowful , when Lord Shiva,

Made in to ashes The god of love by his third eye,

And started a horrific penance with Shiva in her heart.

Madhya sthitha rahasi pancha huthaasananam,

Thatha drusena thapasa jagad anda bhaajaam,

Vithrasa dhathri , pari pahi sada shive na . 8

Always seeing God who wore the crescent in her inner eye,

Sitting in between the five burning fires,

And burning earth and other globes of the universe,

By the heat of her great and horrifying penance ,

Was the Goddess and let her look after us.

Yogyam vatorva purupa sthitharathma bhakthim,

Deergham pareekshithu manukshana makshi pantham,

Sakshaath gireesa mavadhooya rushaa prayathe,

Drakthena samsrithapadam bhvatheem bhajama. 9

To test your devotion , he came in the form of a young Brahmachari,

And started testing you by talking ill about Lord Parameshwara,

And upon your moving away from him in great anger,

He showed his true form and you surrendered at his feet,

Oh Goddess Parvathi and I sing your praise.

Gehe nije varanadhamalasath karabhjaam,

Vyhaari noopura mudanchitha manda haasam,

Neehara bhanu dara muchalitham vareethum,

Mohavahaam tribhuvanasya bhajamahe thwam. 10

In your own home , you took in your hand the wedding garland,

And with slow laugh sounding , like the pretty and soft sound of anklets,

You wedded the God who wore the crescent ,

And attracted all the three worlds and I sing your praise.

But becoming completely mesmerized by your love to him,

Being reflected clearly in the crescents of the nails of your husband,

Taking the form of the Slow moving Mandakini of the heavens,

The corner of your eyes became reddish because of your passion,

And please use your hand and bless us and remove all our bad luck.
