6 notes from our sourcesNotes from our sources
How should Havan offerings be made for the Kavach, Argala, and Kilaka texts?
Kavach uses the individual name-mantras of the Nine Durgas or named powers, not its full verses; Argala uses nine Ahutis with only its first mantra; Kilaka uses only its first mantra, dedicated to Shiva; the Rahasya texts get no Havan offerings at all.
Why did Mahadeva bind the Durga Saptashati, and why is its unbinding procedure only partly disclosed?
Seeing that merely reading Saptashati could accomplish all six rites (Shatkarma) including Maran, Mahadeva bound it to prevent misuse by unauthorized people — its Keelak describes the unbinding procedure only partially, on purpose, so it isn't spread carelessly.
Why shouldn't one common unbinding method be applied to every bound mantra?
The unbinding process commonly used for Tripura Sundari or in Mantra Sanjeevan is often applied indiscriminately to every mantra out of ignorance — but each mantra was originally cursed or bound by a specific Rishi or deity, whose own procedure must be addressed first, with Mahadeva's unbinding coming only third.
Which Devi mantras are bound, according to the Rudrayamala?
Bala Tripura Sundari, Tripura Bhairavi, all three Kootas of Shodashi, Kalika, Bhadrakali, Matangi, Bhuvaneshwari, Tara, Chhinnamastika, Bagalamukhi, and many other Devi forms all have bound mantras requiring unbinding.
Why do previously effective mantras stop working, and can a mantra actually be "bound"?
A mantra itself cannot truly be bound — what happens instead is that an obstacle is placed between the practitioner's aura and the mantra's energy, through either one's own mistake or a malicious practitioner's binding technique (Keelak), leaving the mantra ineffective or even causing suffering when chanted.
How does a Marana ritual neutralize a target's protective deity before causing harm?
In a Marana (lethal) ritual, the practitioner analyzes the target's Prana and protective deity, then uses Keelan to pin and neutralize that protective shield first, so the harmful projected energy can no longer be defended against.
