Sloka for Requesting Forgiveness for One’s Offence

Srividya Guruprasad1 Comment

Typically all pooja vidhanas end with this aparadha shodhana. This is basically to gwt rid of all offences unknowingly caused by us in the pooja, mantra, neivedhyam, etc

Sri Aparadha-shodhana

mantra-hinam kriya-hinam bhakti-hinam janardana

yat pujitam maya deva paripurnam tad astu me

Meaning: O my Lord, O Janardana, whatever little puja or worship that has been performed by me, although it is without devotion, without proper mantras, and without the proper performance, please let that become complete.

yad-dattam bhakti-matrena patram puspam phalam jalam

aveditam nivedyan tu tad grihananukampaya

Meaning: Whatever has been offered with devotion–the leaf, the flower, the water, the fruit, the food offering–please accept it out of Your causeless mercy.

vidhi-hinam mantra-hinam yat kiñcad upapaditam

kirya-mantra-vihinam va tat sarvam kshantum arhasi

Meaning: Whatever has happened without the proper chanting of the mantra, or without following the proper procedure, kindly forgive all that.

aparadha-sahasrani kriyante ‘har-nisham maya

daso ‘ham iti mam matva kshamasva madhusudana

Meaning:Thousands of offenses are performed by me day and night. But thinking of me as Your servance, kindly forgive those, O Mashusu

Sankshipta gajendra moksha(bhagavatham)

Srividya Guruprasad1 Comment

It is said in the Bhagavatha that a person who remembers the story of gajEndra mOksha as soon as one wakes up in the morning, is blessed with hari smaraNe during maraNa kAla.
There is a sankshipta gajEndra mOksha which is very easy for parayane.

 Here are the 2 verses:

ಅಂತಃಸರಸ್ಯುರುಬಲೇನ ಪದೇ ಗೃಹಿತೋ
ಗ್ರಾಹೇಣ ಯಾಥಪತಿರಂಬುಜಹಸ್ತ ಆರ್ತಃ |
ಅಹೇದಮಾದಿಪುರುಷಾಖಿಲಲೋಕನಾಥ

ದ್ಧಸ್ತೇ ಪ್ರಗೃಹ್ಯ ಭಗವಾನ್ ಕೃಪಯೋಜ್ಜಹಾರ ||

 The king of elephants was held at his feet by a crocodile which was of superior strength in the lake. Taking a lotus, the elephant called out to the Lord as Adi puruSha, lOka nAtha, tIrthashravaH and shravaNa maMgala nAmadhEya.

Having heard his plea, the Lord who is apramEya, with the chakra came on the shoulders of garuDa and killed the crocodile with His chakra and freed the elephant by His hands.
