Yantra of Durga's 108 names worn on the right arm: the tithi and nakshatra for making it
The speaker says a further vidhan of the stotra describes a Yantra of the 108 names that is made and worn, for which a specific tithi and nakshatra are given: when Amavasya falls on a Tuesday and the Moon that day is in Shatabhisha Nakshatra, the yantra is constructed then and worn on the right arm, and the wearer obtains every kind of wealth — worn while the path is done, or made siddh and then worn. According to the tantra granths this yantra is of three kinds, he says, but the vidhan is somewhat complex with many constructions to draw, so he withholds it for a later detailed discussion.
What does the Ashtottara Shatanama phalashruti say about a Tuesday Amavasya in Shatabhisha nakshatra?
That on an Amavasya falling on a Tuesday and joined with Shatabhisha nakshatra, if we make the yantra of this whole paath, do the paath, and then wear it, a particular kind of sampada is obtained from it. The confusion people have, he says, is over which yantra is meant.
Why this year's Tuesday Amavasya is not the right day to make the Ashtottara yantra
The speaker says that this time too the Amavasya is falling on a Tuesday, but the Moon is not in Shatabhisha nakshatra this time. The yantra is to be made when it falls in Shatabhisha nakshatra, on a Tuesday, on the Amavasya tithi.
