In our first podcast, we open with a mantra to the Goddess Matangi, a Tantric form of Sarasvati, the Goddess of learning and the arts.

Next, we share two mantras for worshipping the Goddess Kali. These mantras are used by devotees at the Kamakhya temple in Assam, and worship different forms of Kali. The mantras from the podcast are:

namo dirghesvarim devim sarvakama phalapradam | dirghakara kundayuktam siddhim yaccha suresvari ||

kali kali mahakali kalike papanasini | khadga haste munda haste kali kali namostu te ||

We also talk about the phrase “Jai Maa!” and what it means.

A beautiful song by Donna De Lory called “He Ma Durga,” which praises the Mother Goddess, closes the show. We’d like to say a special thank you to Ms. De Lory, who has graciously granted us permission to use her music on our podcasts. www.donnadelory.com

Learn pronunciation and the meaning of these mantras by listening to this podcast. Subscribe on iTunes (Coming Soon!) to get our latest educational and spiritual offerings.

We would like to continue offering these podcasts as a free service to the global community. If you have found this podcast useful or uplifting in some way, please consider making a donation to sponsor our temple.
