Ashtadasa Sakthi Peeda Stotra

Sakthi Peeda means holy places of cosmic power. They are places of worship consecrated to the goddess 'Shakti'.

Legend of Sakthi Peeda:

There was a great king called Daksha Prajapati who was the son of Lord Brahma, He had 27 daughters. Sati devi(avathar of Godess) was one of them.  Daksha gave his daughter Sati in marriage to Lord Shiva.

During the conduct of a fire sacrifice, when Daksha entered the arena, every one except Lord Shiva stood up to respect him. Daksha felt very insulted by Lord Shiva’s behaviour. So when he conducted a yaga again, he did not invite his daughter Sati and his son in law Lord Shiva. Sati felt sad because of this and went to the Yaga against the wishes of Lord Shiva.

She argued with her Father for his mistake of not inviting his Son-in-law and herself. Her father badly insulted Her and Her husband infront of  all guests and relatives. Powered with anger, distress and insult She jumped in to the sacrificial fire. Shiva hearing this and rushed to the place but could not save Parvathi. He cut off the head of  Daksha and took the body of  Sati in his hand and started dancing furiously. The body of Sati was cut in to 18 pieces and these pieces fell down in different places of India. These places are called Shakthi Peethas. Some people are of the opinion that there are 51 Shakthi Peethas and yet others of the opinion that there are 108 Shakthi Peethas. Adhi Shankara, the great saint names 18 places of Shakthi Peethas and the name of the Goddess in temples there in his Ashtadasa Sakthi Peeda Stotra..

Subasagun Sthotra

It is known that reading Sundara Kand from Ramayanam brings all prosperity to life and vanishes all miseries and sorrows from life. The subasagun stothra is a part of Sundara Kand. This sthotra or sthuthi is recited by Vayuputra Hanuman about the subsakuns that appear in favour of Sita before he entered asokavana of Lanka. Since this sthuthi brought happiness to Sita - an incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi, chanting this sloka will bring all good omens for us leading to prosperity. This sloka is very special to Goddess Lakshmi and doing puja to Lakshmi matha with this sloka on Diwali - the birthday of Lakshmi matha from ocean is considered to be very auspicious and ofcourse can also be recited daily for our wellness.
