Share your experiences of practising Bhairava Nama Japa. Om Bhairavaya Namah.
When I started mantra sadhana, it was for a form of Devi. I did not know much about Bhairava or that the two are deeply linked. As my practice became a bit consistent, my mentor Rajarshi sir guided me to begin Nama Japa of Bhairava along with Devi Upasana, after a series of dreams indicated to do so.
Om Bhairavaya Namah.
It is such a simple mantra. But it is a powerhouse. I remember that I started with only 1-3 malas daily. Tuning with that mantra would make me meditative, and trigger some out of body experiences. I would feel that the mantra’s power is making me rise and fly.I wasn’t scared, but it was something I hadn’t experienced before. My mentor shared that the Nama japa injected some shakti so the subtle body started to move around.
The experience in itself is nothing miraculous, it happens in some stages of sadhana, but it deepened a faith in the mantra and Devata for me. I had read that Bhairava responds very fast, these were my first glimpses of it.
Over the next few years, Bhairava kripa has brought innumerable changes in my life and within me. He is the foundation. Protector. Guru.
Ever grateful to Rajarshi sir for bringing Bhairava into my life.
Would love to know your stories of doing Bhairava Nama Japa.
