Bagalamukhi Kavacham Rudrayamale IAST and Devanagari Combined

atha bagalāmukhīkavacam (अअ अअअअअअअअअअअअअ) -
Prologue - Śrī Bagalāmukhī Devi, is the eighth of the ten Daśamahāvidyā-s and is known for Her ability
to silence all enemies, internal and external. Her name is said to be Valagāmukhī, which over a period of
time got distorted to Bagalāmukhī. The word Valagā, means “secret spells” and mukhī stands for mouth
or face. She is therefore the One, who is the repository of secret spells, just like the Divine Mother Kāli.
She is said to be yellow in color and wearing yellow garments. Yellow is the color for dispelling enemies
and winning over them. The Divine Mother Bagalāmukhī, is known for Her power to wield the
brahmāstra, an ultimate celestial weapon to bring maximum destruction and end the war. Spiritually,
this applies to the internal enemies such as thoughts, desires, greed, ego, animosity etc. within us, that
need to be calmed down, for us to ascend and expand our consciousness to become one with the
Divine. She is therefore our guide towards self-realization and ultimately to gain liberation. This kavacam
(shield of armor), is for giving us all the protection we need from external and internal enemies, in our
pursuit towards worldly desires, as well as spiritual accomplishments.

Without any doubt, the Devi Bagalāmukhī kavacam, renders the devotee to look inward and
contemplate upon the higher truth. This kavacam is capable of granting all wishes, success in all
undertakings as well as bestowing the super-natural powers called siddhi-s. It should never be presented
to unreliable and impious devotees.

अअअ अअअअअअअअअअअअ अअ अअअअअ अअअअअअअअअअ अ अअ अ
One must either recite or wear this kavacam and worship the Divine Mother Bagalāmukhī, to obtain
the desired results. There is no point in reciting the mantras, without combining with this kavacam.
pibanti śoṇitaṃ tasya yoginyaḥ prāpya-sādarāḥ अ

अअअअअ अअअअअअअअ अअअ अअअअअ अअअअअ अअअ अ अअ अ
To obtain the desired results, with great reverence, one must offer blood to the Divine Mother
Bagalāmukhī, perceived to be in the form of a blood consuming Yogini. Doing so, one will acquire the
ability to attract anyone or anything of interest and also the ability to mesmerize and destroy as well, if
needed.
A red turmeric powder called kuṅkuma, can be mixed in water and offered as a substitute for blood.

अअअअ अअअअअअअअअअअअअअअ अअअअअअअअअअअअअअअअअअअ अअअअअअअ अ अअ अ
All great fears, hazards and worries will wither away and will NOT impact the devotee of this
kavacam. Those who recite this kavacam and/or the mantras and the thousand names of the Devi
Bagalāmukhī, will derive the benefits. One will obtain all the desires, wealth, justice, prosperity and long
life. One must follow the worship of the Divine Mother with great fervor and devotion.
Oh my dear Pārvatī, as requested by you, I have fully specified the kavacam and its benefits. Please
bestow this to the sincere seekers, so they may benefit from the same.
