WHAT IS ĀTMA BĪJA AND SIDDHI MANTRA?

Siddhi means accomplishment, fulfilment. It also means prosperity, personal success, fortune,
good luck, advantage, supreme felicity, bliss, beatitude and complete sanctification. Siddhi
mantra is derived from birth chart (D20). 5th house Lord of and 9th house Lord of D 20 chart is
taken into account while formulating siddhi mantra. There is no nyāsa for this mantra and needs
no initiation. This mantra will be on testing mode to find out its suitability. This mantra should
be recited as many times as possible for the first 10 days. If the mantra suits well, then it should
cause infantile Bliss, some inexplicable happiness. If this is experienced, it means that the
mantra suits you well.

If the mantra suits well, it acts as a catalyst to the main mantra. All other mantras are to be
encased (sampuṭīkaraṇa) between siddhi mantra at the beginning and at the end. It is advisable
to chant siddhi mantra for a minimum of 24 times in the beginning and 24 times at the end of
all other mantra japas.

Ātma bīja (seed of the soul) is derived from the commonly called name in combination with
planets placed in the birth chart. Various factors go into deriving ātma bīja. The ātma bīja which
is thus derived is placed in the siddhi mantra next to ॐ (om) and hence ātma bīja need not be
recited separately. In certain mantras, ātma bīja is also placed as part of the main mantra and
in the case of all other mantras, they are to be encased with recitation of siddhi mantra at the
beginning and at the end.

Proper recitation of siddhi mantra, with ātma bīja placed next to ॐ, should cause subtle bliss
in the form of inexplicable happiness. This experience confirms the suitability of both the
siddhi mantra and ātma bīja.
Example:

Let us assume one’s ātma bīja is derived as ह्रीं hrīṁ. Let us also assume that his/her 5th and 9th
houses of D20 chart are ruled by Shiva and Lakshmi. His or her siddhi mantra would be

ॐ ह्रीं श्रीं नमःशिवाय॥ om hrīṁ śrīṁ namaḥśivāya ||

It can be seen that his or her ātma bīja ह्रीं hrīṁ is placed next to ॐ. His/her ninth house Lord of
D20 chart is Shiva, whose mantra is namaḥśivāya and 9th house Lord Lakshmi is represented
by Her bīja श्रीं śrīṁ.
