Agastya yeh mantra Marut ke liye bol raha hai. Marut wo tez hawa aur toofan ki taakeat hain. Agastya keh raha hai ki aap gussa chhod do. Apne ghode khole aur humare saath aao. Indra bahut taqatwar hain, unse dar lagta hai. Agastya chahte hain ki Indra aur Marut aapas mein theek rahein. Yeh jaap se hum log surakshit rahenge.

Mantras

Mantra 1

प्रति व एना नमसाहमेमि सूक्तेन भिक्षे सुमतिं तुराणाम् । रराणता मरुतो वेद्याभिर्नि हेळो धत्त वि मुचध्वमश्वान् ॥

Main jhuk ke tumhare paas aa raha hoon. Achhe shabdon se Marut se dua kar raha hoon ki woh khush rahein. Marut, tum apne saare saathiyon ke saath khush ho ke aao. Apna gussa chhod do aur ghode azaad kar do.

Mantra 2

एष वः स्तोमो मरुतो नमस्वान्हृदा तष्टो मनसा धायि देवाः । उपेमा यात मनसा जुषाणा यूयं हि ष्ठा नमस इद्वृधासः ॥

Yeh stuti Marut ke liye hai, dil se bani hui aur mann se bethi hui. Devta, tum apne mann se khush ho ke iske paas aao. Jab tum log jhukte ho, tab tum bade ho jaate ho aur hum bhi bade ho jaate hain.

Mantra 3

स्तुतासो नो मरुतो मृळयन्तूत स्तुतो मघवा शम्भविष्ठः । ऊर्ध्वा नः सन्तु कोम्या वनान्यहानि विश्वा मरुतो जिगीषा ॥

Jab hum Marut devtaon ki tarif karte hain, woh humpe khush ho jayein. Indra bhi humari prarthana se taakat paaye, woh jo sabse zyada khushi dene wala hai. Humari badhai aur humare din upar ki taraf badhein. Marut devta, humein jeetne ki taqat den.

Mantra 4

अस्मादहं तविषादीषमाण इन्द्राद्भिया मरुतो रेजमानः । युष्मभ्यं हव्या निशितान्यासन्तान्यारे चकृमा मृळता नः ॥

Main itni taakat se dar gaya, Marut devta. Indra se darr ke maare kaanp gaya. Jo cheezein aapke liye theen, woh khatarnak ho gayi thi. Humne unhe door kar diya. Ab aap humpe khush ho jaiye, humein raahat den.

Mantra 5

येन मानासश्चितयन्त उस्रा व्युष्टिषु शवसा शश्वतीनाम् । स नो मरुद्भिर्वृषभ श्रवो धा उग्र उग्रेभिः स्थविरः सहोदाः ॥

Jis taakat se subah ki roshni roz naye din laati hai, usi taakat se aap hum mein sach sunne ki aur apni badhai ki shamta daalen. Marut devta, aap taakat se bhare hue ho, pakke ho, aur taakat dene wale ho.

Mantra 6

त्वं पाहीन्द्र सहीयसो नॄन्भवा मरुद्भिरवयातहेळाः । सुप्रकेतेभिः सासहिर्दधानो विद्यामेषं वृजनं जीरदानुम् ॥

Indra, un logon ki raksha karo jo aur taakat paana chahte hain. Marut devta ke saath raho, gussa chhod do. Jo log saaf samajhte hain, unke saath mil ke taakat pao. Hum sahi ladai aur sahi marg jaan sakein, aur jo deta hai woh sada rahe.

Frequently Asked Questions
