- It is a kind of Mantra, names of godesses -taken one by one, each name associated with different form of godess and has different vibrations and values. Chanting of these mantras creates a " Kavach" m an armour around you, which protects from you from outside bad powers. Regular chanting of devi kavacham provides the security , protection, peace of mind and prosperity to the seekar.
For all the Sahajayogis- Mataji Nirmaladevi is our Godesses, She is Adishakti- incarnation of godesses of wealth- Laxmi , godess of Wisdom or gyan - Saraswati, and Godess who kills demons and protects the innocnet devotees - Mahakali. Mataji takes care of every child in all these forms.
Devi means Godess- Mataji Nirmaladevi is the Godess- Mahalaxmi, Mahasaraswati and Mahakali all in one. The divine mother protects each of her child.
Kavach means a sort of protection. As Helmet is the protection for head while driving something of that sort, or something of the sort of bullet proof jacket worn by you.
Devi kavach - means the protection offered by the Divine Mother herself. When you surrender to the God, then you are in the kingdom of God
In Sahajayoga taking Bandhan is as good as availing benefit of Devi Kavach. Mataji has urged upon us all to take Bandhan all time, when you go out of home, when you are traveling, go for important work and such important things. It saves you from external evil forces. Mataji takes care of you; you are safeguarded by the divine power of deity- Mahamaya, Adishakti- Mataji Nirmaladevi.
Personal Experience - I submit this personal experience of mine which happened just yesterday. I was out of my home to bring back my son from his friend’s residence. Before going out of home, my inner voice was asking me take bandhan . It had never happened before. I was wondering why i am getting these kinds of signals.
I decided to follow my inner voice. I acted as per advice of awakened Kundalini. I just sat in front of photograph of Mataji Nirmaladevi, prayed her for a while and took bandhan. I then chanted our regular three Mantras of Mataji Nirmaladevi. I was assured in mind that my journey would now be safe. To tell you the fact- While returning home from the residence of my son's friend, on road there was heavy traffic, it was evening time, and suddenly some car came very fast from the back and almost dashed me in front of my scooter. My son was on back side of my two-wheeler. It was a sudden accident or attack on me from external forces, totally unknown to me. But I am happy to declared that with the grace, blessings, security offered by Bandhan, by the power of Devi- Adishakti-, Nirmaladevi I escaped unhurt. This has happened many years back and i had just noted it down. Today i just remembered it, and felt it like sharing with all sahajayogis and all devotees of Ma Durga, whose blessings would always protect us .
But for some time I had fear in my mind, my heart beat has risen etc. However Mataji has saved me and my son from a very grave situation. I acknowledge with thanks the power of Devi Kavach. The Power of Bandhans. The supporting and guiding and care-taking Mother of us all- Mataji Nirmaladevi.
Jai Shri Mataji.
