Overview

Mahamrityunjaya Jaap for families in Nampally

Mahamrityunjaya Jaap is the repeated chanting of the Tryambakam mantra from the Rig Veda (7.59.12) and Yajurveda, addressed to Lord Shiva as the conqueror of death. It is performed as an anushthan: a sankalp is taken in the devotee's name, and one or more Pandits chant the mantra a fixed number of times, usually on a rudraksha mala, before concluding with a havan.

Nampally is one of the oldest parts of central Hyderabad, around the Hyderabad Deccan railway station, the Public Gardens and the exhibition grounds that host the annual Numaish each January and February.

ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात्॥

Oṁ tryambakaṁ yajāmahe sugandhiṁ puṣṭivardhanam, urvārukam iva bandhanān mṛtyor mukṣīya mā'mṛtāt.

We worship the three-eyed Lord, fragrant and nourishing. May he free us from bondage, as a ripe cucumber from its vine, and lead us towards immortality.Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, Rig Veda 7.59.12
