Extremely Rare Shraddha Sukt to increase faith and devotion

Devotion or Bhakti, is the basis of any sadhana.
Without devotion, even the basic panchopchar puja doesnt give fruits.
Without puja, even Lord Rama cannot be pleased.
Then what to say about other gods.
Devotion is not just about having faith in God.
Devotion and faith are 2 completely different things.
When we have faith, we believe that amuk God's amuk mantra will help.
When we have devotion, we believe, in the mantra, in the mantra's power, in the god whose upasna we are doing and we give every service that we can to please that god and gain his blessings.
Unfortunately, a lot of people just chant a mantra without devotion, without any efforts from their side for pleasing the god and then complain that god doesn't listen to them.
They think that they are a favour on god by worshipping them.
When the truth is that we need god, god doesn't need us.

And that is why, we must always choose our isht devta with care and proper thinking.
Changing one's isht devta every now and then will leave you stuck in a maze.
Keep in mind readers that even though, Sanatana Dharma says that one must worship multiple gods, one must always try to worship one god only.
This is because the concept of worshipping multiple gods was created in a time when people had gurus and guru parampara.
However, today, for people, guru is nothing more than a diksha giving machine.
For them, the importance of guru is only limited to that.
In such a situation, worshipping of multiple gods without guidance of guru makes us fickle minded on whom to worship when.

Many times I have also seen how people just change their isht devta because they found out some amazing and rare mantra of that god.
Such people do not post heed, to the method of upasana of a particular god, for they only concerned about fulfillment of their bhog.
The moment the particular god, out of humbleness and pity, fulfills their wishes, such sadhaks will run away to some other god for some other wishes.
For such sadhaks, performing puja, performing nyaas, kulluka, mantra setu, kavach setu,etc. Becomes tiring because they say they do not get for other things, if they do these things.
What will such people understand about things like seva and samarpan.


Every god has its own rules and paddhati or method of worshipping.
One cannot just worship any god the way he wants to.
One needs to follow the method that is specified for that god.
And every method of every god is only known to a guru.
Unfortunately, the world is such that just by 4-5 sadhanas, a person starts considering himself as Jagatguru.
Keep in mind readers, that any mantra purushcharan sadhana is tough.
But by performing a sadhana, a sadhak can get what is impossible to achieve by physical efforts.

In today's world, when there is more and more distraction, and influence of shudra and mlecchas and they malefic mindset, the human becomes fickle minded and becomes unable to follow dharma properly.

There are various remedies to cure this thing.
Today, the first remedy is being shared by me here, called as shraddha sukt.
By reciting this sukt daily, the sadhak will experience and increase in his devotion in god.

Other than this, the sadhak will also feel more interested in his work, family,etc. where monotony may have come up.
The sadhak will experience more positivity and will start seeing how everything happening around him is nothing but a miracle of his isht devta.


The shraddha sukt must be recited 5 times during sandhya time to increase faith and devotion in god.

The recitation must be done while keeping a ghee diya and few incense sticks lit in front of you.
The recitation must be done in front of Surya Dev, Gayatri Maa or Lord Shiva. Or, one can recite it in front of any of the trishakti.



Shraddha sukt -
श्रद्धा सूक्त
।। ॐ अस्य श्री श्रद्धा सूक्तस्य,  श्रद्धा कामायनी ऋषिः, 
 श्रद्धा देवताः, अनुष्टुप्छन्दः श्रद्धा प्रसाद सिद्धयर्थे जपे विनियोगः ।।

 ॐ श्रद्धयाग्निः समिध्यते श्रद्धया हूयते हविः।
श्रद्धां भगस्य मूर्धनि वचसा वेदयामसि॥

प्रियं श्रद्धे ददतः प्रियं श्रद्धे दिदासतः।
प्रियं भोजेषु यज्वस्विदं म उदितं कृधि॥

यथा देवा असुरेषु श्रद्धामुग्रेषु चक्रिरे।
एवं भोजेषु यज्वस्वस्माकमुदितं कृधि॥

श्रद्धां देवा यजमाना वायुगोपा उपासते।
श्रद्धां हृदय्य१याकूत्या श्रद्धया विन्दते वसु॥

श्रद्धां प्रातर्हवामहे श्रद्धां मध्यंदिनं परि।
श्रद्धां सूर्यस्य निम्रुचि श्रद्धे श्रद्धापयेह नः॥

      'Without devotion, even the basic panchopchar puja does give fruits'
      I think it must be 'doesn't give fruits'

  2. The one to whom your heart remembers when in trouble is your isht devta.
    Shri Rama- Hanuman upasna is interdependent.
    You cannot worship one of them neglecting the other.

    Sandhya means the time of sandhya upasana
