Saturn, Shani also known as Manda means slow. It
also means to be full of forgiveness, tolerance and peace as in “shankara”,
“shanno danti prachodayat”. Saturn indicates the solitaire life and
spirituality. He signifies cold diseases, hard work, public office, political
success and chronocity of any disease. Saturn is a karaka of anything slow – be
it a disease, a long stay in the office. A well posited Shani gives excellent
longevity. Similarly, Shani would cause delay in the aspects of life he is
associated. Shani is in-charge for bones and quality of blood. Adverse Shani
would cause fractures, dental problems and anaemia. Remedial measures to Shani
will mainly reduce the delays, cure from cold and bone disorders and also
reduce the adverse effects of Shani caused by his position, ownership and
association in the chart.
On a Saturday, on which sarwarth siddhi yoga
is there and Moon is favourable to the devotee, recital of Saturn mantra is to
be started. The mantra is to be recited twenty three thousand times. 1/10 of homa
with the twigs of shani and 1/10 is done as tarpan and 1/10 of
that should be done as marzan. Shani should be worshipped with the iron
made idol. After that the devotee should donate the articles of Saturn. After
recital of the mantra the devotee should fed Brahmins as per his
capabilities. The food of Brahmins should include articles made of black
sesame or powder of black sesame should be used as one of the ingredients of
the food.
When Saturn is malefic in a horoscope, in transit
or causes the 7 ½ years cycle, recital of Shani mantra is very
beneficial along with Mritunjayee. It is also recommended that the native
should observe fast on Saturday and worship Lord Saturn with its kavach,
stotra and mantra. The sage of the Mantra is Ddhyadgathavarn. The
metre is gayatri. The deity is aapo. Worshipping lord Hanuman is
advised during the sadhesati of Saturn. The Mantra for recital
is:-
