Mantraśodhana, Dīkṣā-krama, Guru-Pādukā, Ajapā-Haṃsa, and Ṣaṭcakra-Kuṇḍalinī Sādhana
षट्शतं तु गणेशाय वागधीशाय चार्पयेत् । स्वाधिष्ठाने विद्रुमाभे वादिलांतार्णसंयुते ॥ ८३ ॥
ṣaṭśataṃ tu gaṇeśāya vāgadhīśāya cārpayet | svādhiṣṭhāne vidrumābhe vādilāṃtārṇasaṃyute || 83 ||
Nên dâng sáu trăm lần cúng hiến/niệm tụng lên Gaṇeśa, Chúa tể của Ngôn từ. Hãy quán Ngài tại trung tâm Svādhiṣṭhāna, sắc như san hô, và tương ưng với chuỗi âm nội tại từ “va” đến “la”.
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It prescribes a precise devotional-ritual measure (six hundred offerings/recitations) to Gaṇeśa as Vāk-pati (Lord of Speech), linking outer practice with inner contemplation at the Svādhiṣṭhāna center.
Bhakti here is expressed as disciplined upāsanā: offering a fixed count with focused meditation on the deity’s form (coral-hued) and presence within the subtle body, making devotion both heartfelt and methodical.
It highlights technical mantra-knowledge about phonetic/letter groupings (arṇa/varṇa) used in ritual recitation—an applied, śikṣā/phonetics-like precision within Narada Purana’s procedural teachings.
