Karta, Bhokta & Adhishthata of adhik Maas - all these are Lord Krishna.
Today, I am sharing a few prayogs here dedicated to Lord Krishna performing which one can remove all their sorrows & sufferings in the adhik maas.
The vidhi is very simple and the prayogs can be performed by anyone of any age.
The sadhak must wake up in brahma muhurat, have a bath, perform his daily sandhya and begin this prayog.
Other than this, all other basic rules like panch dev pujan, lighting dhoop, deep, performing panchopchar puja,etc. must be followed.
Aasan - Kush
Direction - East
Mala - Tulsi
Time - Sunrise
The Stotra is called as the Krishna chaturvinshati naam Stotra created by Lord Dharma.
By reciting this stotra, the sadhak gets rid of all his sins and he also gets freed from all paapacharan and all those who want to surround themselves with spirituality in their life can get the same by reciting this stotra.
One must recite this stotra at least 324 times daily.
Other than this, following the vidhi mentioned above, one can also recite the Koti Janma Paap Nivaran Krishna Ashtak.
1 recitations takes 1 minute. Hence one can easily complete 324 recitations in just 2.5-3 hours.
Shri Krishna Chaturvinshati Naam Stotra(Dharma Krut):
श्रीधर्म उवाच ।
ॐ कृष्णं विष्णुं वासुदेवं परमात्मानमीश्वरम् ।
गोविन्दं पर्मानन्दमेकमक्षरमच्युतम् ॥ १॥
गोपेश्वरं च गोपीशं गोपं गोरक्षकं विभुम् ।
गवामीशं च गोष्ठस्थं गोवत्सपुच्छधारिण्म् ॥ २॥
गोगोपगोपीमध्यस्थं प्रधानं पुरुषोत्तमम् ।
वन्देऽनवद्धमनघं श्यामं शान्तं मनोहरम् ॥ ३॥
इत्युच्चार्य समुत्तिष्ठन् रत्नसिंहासने वरे ।
ब्रह्मविष्णुमहेशांस्तान्संभाष्य स उवास ह ॥ ४॥
चतुर्विशतिनामानि धर्मवक्त्रोद्गतानि च ।
यः पठेत्प्रातरुत्थाय स सुखी सर्वतो जयी ॥ ५॥
मृत्युकाले हरेनमि तस्य साध्यं भवेद्ध्रुवम् ।
स यात्यन्ते हरेः स्थानं हरिदास्यं भवेद्ध्रुवम् ॥ ६॥
नित्यं धर्मस्तं घटते नाधर्मे तद्रतिर्भवेत् ।
चतुर्वर्गफलं तस्य शश्वत्करगतं भवेत् ॥ ७॥
तं दृष्ट्वा सर्वपापानि पलायन्ते भयेन च ।
भयानि चैव दुःखानि वैनतेयमिवोरेगाः ॥ ८॥
इति ब्रह्मावैवर्ते धर्मकृतं श्रीकृष्णस्तोत्रम् ।
Readers, there is a lot of misconception among the general public regarding what can be done or not done in Adhik Maas.
In Adhik Maas, all kinds of dharmik Karya done with the expectation of fruits are forbidden.
Thus, Digging/building/starting wells, lake, garden; Starting any kind of vrat or doing its udyaapan, Doing gruha pravesh of newly married girls, Doing Daan of earth, tula, Hiranya,gau are also forbidden. Somayagya i.e. havan using milk or ghee, Ashtaka Shraadh, Havan using foodgrains, Rishi Pujan, Ved vrat i.e. Starting reading vedas, Neelvrush Vivaah, Doing any of the 16 sanskars of a child, Dev Pratishtha, Diksha, Yagyopavit sanskar, Mundan, going to temples or tirths or seeing gods not seen before, Taking sanyas, Establishing Agnihotra in the house, Meeting Kings i.e. meeting politicians, doing abhishek, Starting chaturmasya Vrat, Karna Vedhan Sanskar & Exams
All the above mentioned things are forbidden in Adhik Maas, Kshaya Maas & on combustion of Brihaspati and Shukra and in their Sishutva and baalatva. i.e. 3 days before & after the asta & rise of the grahas.
Rudra japa i.e. Rudra ashtdhyayi japa for getting freedom from life threatening diseases, Using Kapil Shashthi & all such rare yogas for one's spiritual benefit, performance of sadhanas for getting rain when suffering from drought or famine, doing nishkaam havan of mantras except those involving || वषट् ||, Doing Shraadh during grahan, Daan, japa, Doing putra janma related krutya & pitru maran related shraadh, garbhaadhaan, punsavan and seemant.
All these activities can be done in Adhik Maas. All the spiritual activities like Japa, daan, havan, etc. can be done if done with nishkaam bhaav. However, if some rare yoga like kapil shashthi, akshay tritya,etc. come then the same can be utilised for sakaam sadhanas.
In this Adhik maas, there is a ravi pushya yoga on 20th which can be used for sakaam sadhanas.
The above mentioned rules also apply for Kshay Maas. Adhik Maas is a month which is extra and which comes every 4 years.
Similarly, there is Kshaya maas where is 1 month less in the year. Such a month first comes after 141 years, and then 19 years after the first kshaya maas. After the 2nd kshaya Maas, the 3rd again comes after 141 years & so on.
Other than the prayogs mentioned for adhik maas, I have also shared lot of Rama/Krishna/Vishnu sadhanas in the past for sin removal. One can chant whichever mantra they want as per their wish & as much as they can.
All the sadhanas, which would be best for adhik maas, have been shared by me. Hope all the readers make the best use of this month.
Wishing all readers a blissful and auspicious Adhik maas and may Lord Krishna/Rama/Vishnu give their blessings to you.
