Call Recording: Muruga and Other Discussion

Mytho-therapy:

At one time Maharishi Brighu knew the secret of Om and was trying to destroy the world. Lord Siva prevented this act by placing his hands over Brighu’s head and saying: ‘You must forget the Om mantra.’ At that instant the secret of Omkara mantra faded from his memory. Brighu realized what was happening and in turn cursed Siva saying: ‘You will forget the Om mantra too.’ And Siva forgot the secret of Om as well.  Later on Siva went to Muruga and asked him to teach the secret of the Omkara mantra to him.  Muruga agreed explaining that Siva would have to be his student. Siva agreed, and Muruga whispered the secret of Om in his father’s ear. This is the history of the vortex of the Muruga temple at Swamimalai.

Dr. Pillai teaches Om as Ah, Oo, Ma:

• Ah represents Siva,
• Oo represents Shakti
• Ma represents Maya

Even just using one of these syllables manifests great power.

Muruga’s 6 Heads:

Muruga’s 6 Heads represent 6 parts of the brain as well as 6 Siddhis.  These represent the 5 faces of Siva and the Face of Uma Devi or Parvati, which can only be seen by the wise. He is able to see North, South, East West Sky and Earth. These faces represent the 5 senses which lead to the 6^th sense, or inner knowing, the Atho-mugam.

The 6 faces mantra is: SA RA VA NA BA VA

Forehead: Tatpurushaya

Top of Head: Ishanaya

Right Brain: Aghora Hridayaya

Left Brain: Vama Devaya

Back of Brain (Occipital Lobe): Sadyojataya

3^rd Eye, Pineal Gland Atho-mugam

Call Recording: Muruga as Protector & Healer, Time Element: Karanas

Transformative Mantra given to Arunagiri by Muruga: Chumma Iru Sollara (Mind Be Still)

Dr. Pillai teaches that for the Siddhas, health is the most important factor in human life. They say: ’I am the body’. If the body gets sick, even the soul will not stay in a sick body, it will leave. The ultimate teaching is that the body is Light. When our body goes beyond the senses, beyond the material perceptions, we’ll be able to have perfect health. Muruga can help us attain fantastic health because he is youthful forever.

• Murugan means handsome or beautiful.
• Kumaran means youthful.
• Guhan gives you the secrets of life, the hidden secrets of life.

MURUGAN KUMARAN GUHAN is a very powerful mantra to chant. Muruga is never born and will never die. He is the energy of existing forever.

Each Karnana is 1/2 a Ttithi (Moon Phase). Run the free Birth Chart Report at AstroVed to find out what Karana you were born in:
