Kandha Sashti Kavacham 36 Times: The Saravana Bhava Mantra

There’s a line in the Kanda Sashti Kavasam.

“One day, thirty-six times.” That means you’re supposed to recite the Kanda Sashti Kavasam thirty-six times a day.

It takes seven hours to recite. I’ve recited it.

But since there wouldn’t be time in the Kali Yuga to recite the Kanda Sashti Kavasam thirty- six times a day, something is stated there subtly, in secret.

By Murugan’s grace, I figured it out. I’ll tell you about it.

Ravana pavas. Ra ra ra ra raraa. Rivana pavas. Ri ri ri ri riri.

I searched and searched for what all this meant, and by Murugan’s grace, I figured it out.

“Saravana bhava” is a mantra for Murugan.

You have to say it six times. Now, if you take “sa” and move it to the end, you get “ravana pavas.”

You have to say that six times. Now, if you take “ra” and move it to the end, you get “vanava” “Vasara.” If you take “va” and move it to the end, you get “nabava sarava.”

Now, if you take the “Na” and put it at the end, you get “Bava Saravana.”

If you take the “Pa” and put it at the end, you get “Vasara Vanapa.”

Say each one six times, and six times six makes thirty-six.

You can say it like this in five minutes.

If you recite the Kanda Sashti Kavasam thirty-six times, you’ll receive its benefits.

Wow.

This is something subtly revealed in the Kanda Sashti Kavasam itself.

I’m sharing this so the news can reach Murugan devotees all over the world through Vijay Television.

Very happy. That Lord Murugan…
