Apamarjana Kavacham
(The armour which cleanses)
Translated by
P.R.Ramachander
( This great armour occurs in Vishnu Dharmothara Purana. It is believed by chanting it and meditating on the
manthra given in the end , our body and mind would get clean and we would get rid of all our diseases. I got this
Kavacham from 49 Kava changal , a book in Malayalam published by Vidhyarambham press.)
1.Poorve Narayana pathu, Varijaksthu Dakshine,
Pradhymna paschime pathu, Vasudeva sthothare.
Let Narayana protect the east, Let the south be protected by lotus eyed one,
Let Pradhyumna protect my west and Vasudeva protect my north.
2.Isanyam Rakshathaad Vishnur , AAgneyam cha Janardhana,
Nairyuthyam Padmanabhasthu , vayavyam Madhu soodhana.
Let Lord Vishnu guard the north east, Let Janardhana protect south east,
Let south west be protected by the Lord who has lotus flower in his navel,
And let North west be protected by the killer of Madhu.
3.OOrdhwam Govardfhanoddhartha , hyadharayam trivikrama,
Yethabhyo dasa digbhyascha sarvatha pathu Kesava.
Let the one who lifted Govardhana protect the top,
And let the Trikrama protect what is beneath,
And let Kesava protect everything including these ten directions.
4.Yevam kruthwa dig bandham Vishnu sarvathra samsmaran,
Avyag rachitha kurveetha nyasa karma Yadhavidhi.
Thus after tying up all the sides and after meditating on Vishnu,
And then do the rituals as given below.
5.Angushtagre thu Govindam, Tharjanuyam thu mahidharam,
Madhyamayam Hrishikesa, anamikyaam Trivikrama.
Govinda at the tip of the thumb , the carrier of earth at the second finger,
Hrishikesa at the third finger and Trivikrama in the index finger.
6.Kanishtayam nyased Vishnum, kara prushte thu Vamanam,
Evam angulee nyasa paschad angeshu vinyased.
In the little finger think of Vishnu and back of the hand Vamana,
And after this ritual with fingers , do rituals of organs.
7.Shikayam Kesavam nyasya, mordhni Narayanam nyaseth,
Madhavam cha lalate thu Govindam broovor nyaseth,
Think of Kesava by touching the hair, Narayana by touching the head,
Think of Madhava by touching the forehead and Govinda by touching eye brows.
