Life is very complex. It makes you prone to all types of accidents, ill-fated, incurable diseases, a streak of sorrows and unbearable evils. There are many things in this existential reality which make you just want to give up.
But do you?
There are other things that even prevent you from giving up! So you are stuck in between a rock and a hard place. The darkest place you’d want to be in. How do you get out? With the help of your faith in the almighty.
Your ray of hope in this dark night is the Mahamrutyunjay Mantra.
It is Lord Shiva’s Mantra who is also known as Rudra. It is a Rucha, in Rudra Sukta of the seventh Mandal in Rigved. It is present in Yajurved as well.
It is said that this old Hymn was known to only Saint Markandeya through the blessing of Lord Shiva. But afterwards, Lord Shiv taught it to Shukracharya for use in Sanjivani Mantra.
Sanjivani Mantra is known to have been used to resurrect dead people. Very powerful indeed.
So here is the Mahamrutyunjay Mantra:
ॐ हौं जूं सः ॐ भूर्भुवः स्वः |
Om houm joom sah Om bhur bhuvah swah
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् |
Om trayambakam yajamahe sugandhim pushtivardhanam
उर्वरुइकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात्
Urvaarukam-Iva Bandhanaan Mrtyor-Mukssiiya Maamrtaat
ॐ स्वः भवः भूः ॐ सःजूं हौं ॐ
Om Swahv Bhavah Bhuh Om Sah Joom Haum Om
English Translation -
Om houm joom sah Om bhur bhuvah swah Om trayambakam yajamahe sugandhim pushtivardhanam oorvarukmiva bandhnaan mrityormukshiya maamritaat Om swah bhuvah bhuh
Om sah joom houm Om...
Meaning:
Oh Lord Rudr,who gives strength to our body, mind and soul, who illuminates the universe with three divine eyes and who exists in all three lokas – hell, heaven and earth,we pray to you with all the fragrance.
So you should not attempt to do this on your own. Learn the Mantra from a proper guru who has dedicated his life towards the divine cause. Also you can use our MP3 to learn it properly.
