Heramba Haridra Ganapati Sadhana
In any home where this mantra is chanted even once, poverty will never take root.
To achieve victory in disputes, legal battles, or court cases, and to overcome the fear of enemies, chant this mantra.
This is the miraculous mantra of Haridra Ganesh Sadhana, and by chanting it, auspiciousness prevails everywhere.
The Haridra Ganapati Mantra is especially important for subduing enemies and compelling them to become friends.
In the Indian Rishi tradition, there were extraordinary sages like Brahmarishi Vishwamitra, whose entire life was filled with unique events. Known for his brilliance, energy, rebellion, and continuous renewal of life, Vishwamitra is a constant presence in our consciousness. Among Brahma’s mental progeny, he was the most radiant sage, who never knew how to bow or plead. Whatever seemed futile in life, he discarded it in an instant. He understood and lived every aspect of life from his perspective, never following the beaten path. When Menaka disrupted his penance, he made her his wife. When King Trishanku was denied entry to heaven by Indra, Vishwamitra created a new heaven altogether. He always had a rebellious nature.
In life, those who are courageous, radiant, and possess clear understanding and determination are the true rebels. Those who have a deep urge to resolve life’s inconsistencies, even at the cost of self-sacrifice, choose the path of rebellion because they know that conventional paths will not fulfill their desires. Vishwamitra did exactly that. He never bowed or pleaded. He learned to seize every opportunity, and where traditional paths did not lead to success, he found new ways and created new systems. He was the first sage who did not bow before Lakshmi but instead compelled her to establish herself in his ashram. Such was the remarkable sage Brahmarishi Vishwamitra, who also created a unique sadhana called “Heramba Sadhana.” This sadhana offers a lifestyle where one never has to bow before anyone, and all desired tasks are accomplished—an essential practice for today’s age, where goodness holds little value.
Society is filled with individuals who behave like animals and can only be controlled through stern measures. Your humility and love hold little value in their eyes. Maharishi Vishwamitra’s sadhana is a process of filling oneself with sharpness and radiance, so much so that those who come into contact with this energy are not only mesmerized but also filled with a sense of fear. Those who are touched by the fiery spark of Maharishi Vishwamitra’s energy find this material world insignificant and eventually attain mastery over the sadhana of any deity. However, this intense sadhana should only be undertaken by those who are mentally and physically strong, with every cell of their body awakened.
The practitioner should sit in their clean and tidy sadhana room around 5 AM, wearing yellow garments on a yellow seat, and mentally offer prayers to Guruji for strength. Then, on a wooden platform in front, create two seats with flower petals—one for inviting Guruji and the other for imagining Maharishi Vishwamitra in subtle form, helping to complete the sadhana.
The Haridra Ganapati idol is established at the Baglamukhi Peeth in Roopali Enclave. This idol is unparalleled for removing enemies, curing diseases, and clearing debts. Invoking Haridra Ganapati in the Baglamukhi Tantra destroys all obstacles. The miracles of this eight-sided deity at the Peeth are visible to all. Practitioners can perform this sadhana on any Shukla Paksha Chaturthi, lighting a ghee lamp in a plate, facing north, and holding yellow rice and water in hand for the invocation.
Invocation Mantra:
“Om Hung Aung Glaum Haridrā Gaṇapataye Vara Varada Jana Sarva Hṛdaya Stambhaya Stambhaya Swaha.”
The invocation of Haridra Ganapati requires the chanting of four lakh (400,000) mantras according to scriptures, followed by offerings, libations, and ritual cleansing. This process is to be completed in four days to receive the full blessings of Lord Ganesha. However, for smaller practices, such as chanting 1000 times with a turmeric mala and then immersing the mala in water while facing south, enemy restraint is achieved. For obtaining a spouse, chanting with a turmeric mala and offering to the fire will lead to the desired outcome. Considering these aspects, Acharya Ji has established the Haridra Ganapati at the Baglamukhi Peeth under the guidance of Shri Dileshwar Rao, whose vision and prayers remove all sufferings of devotees.
Kavach (Protective Shield):
Lord Shiva said to Goddess Parvati, “O dear one! Listen as I describe the Kavach (protective shield) that grants all accomplishments. Reciting or hearing it removes all calamities.”
“Whoever recites this Kavach and chants the Ganesh mantra without knowing it will not achieve Siddhi (spiritual success) even in hundreds of crores of eons.”
“May Amod protect my head, Pramod protect the crown of my head, Samod protect my eyebrows, and Ganadhip protect the space between them.”
“May Ganakrida protect my eyes, Ganapati protect my nose, and Ganakrida protect my face, granting me all Siddhis.”
“Sumukh protects my tongue, Durmukh protects my neck, Vighnesh protects my heart, and Vighnanath protects my chest.”
“Ganapati protects both my arms, Vighnakarta protects my stomach, and Vighnaharta protects my loins.”
“May Gajavaktra protect my waist, Ekadanta protect my hips, and Lambodara and Aruna protect my private parts.”
“Vyala Yagyopavita protects my legs, and Japaka and Ganadhip protect my knees and thighs.”
“Haridra Ganapati protects all my limbs. This Kavach, praised by all deities and providing wealth and prosperity, has no equal in the three worlds. Therefore, what is the use of idle talk that wastes time?”
