Sabani Rath performed the Durga Puja and this is a recording oi two very important pans often Puja – the recitation of the navakshari mantra followed by Sri Chandi.
नक्षत्रपादैः राशिविचारः।
nakṣatrapādaiḥ rāśivicāraḥ |
Translation: The signs were created from the pada of the nakşatra (constellations). Every naksatra has four pada each measuring 3°20′. The span of naksatra is 4×3°20’=13°20. The span of a rasi is 30°. Nine nakşatra-pada join to create a rasi 9×3°20’=30°. The important concept explained here is the power of mind over matter. The 360° nakşatra-belt is called the bha-chakra, and the zodiac is derived from this bha-chakra of the naksatra. In other words, naksatra chakra is creator of the rasi chakra. By implication, the mind which works through the nakşatra chakra is superior to the body and all matter that is created through the rasi chakra.
