Synopsis and inner significance of Devī Kavacam
In this satsang, we “look” at the significance of kavacam which has the limited meaning of shield implying protection. Careful contemplation of all the sloka in this hymn makes one connect to the presence in 49 different gross aspects of the body parts, 14 different internal aspects including the subtle as in the doer, intellect, mind, the life forces, the sheaths and beyond. The hymn goes beyond to elaborate the protection to ones own immediate external relations as in spouse and progeny and includes one’s lineage as in past and the future. This protection expands to the entire space in the ten different directions.
Thus the entirety in one’s existence as the perceived identification as in feelings from thought to the skin, which is the personal reality, the relative realty as in family and lineage, and the absolute which is beyond space and time is encapsulated in the hymn that confers protection. Seen in this awareness in truth is the shift or expansion of the limited ego in gross, subtle, causal to include the entire cosmos. With this vision one is totally protected for there is only I and no Mine.
In the above context, one can understand the true meaning of the phala śRti - listening to the efficacy of the hymn.
