What Is So Special About Dakshinawarti Shankh?

By Chinmay Shankar

Hindu Scriptures mention Shankha (Shells) as a sacred and religious object that evokes the divinity. As per the beliefs of Sanatan Dharma, the significance of a conch shell is of higher order than that of any religious objects as it is associated with Vishnu-Laxmi and other Gods and Goddesses.

Shankhas, usually come in two variants- sometimes three, namely Vamavarti, Madhyavarti and Dakshinavarti. There are further sub types to each conch shells which are associated with different Gods and Goddesses. Out of these, Vamavarti Shankh is commonly available but Dakshinavarti Shankh is very rare. Considered a rare jewel, this right handed conch shell is marked by its counter-clockwise coils. This different feature has let it earn the status and significance of a divine entity. In Skanda Purana, it has been said that bathing Vishnu with a Dkshinavarti Shankha grants the devotee freedom from the sins of seven previous births.

Even in their description of Gods and Goddesses, they are depicted holding conch shells in their hands. As per Atharva Veda, conch shells defeats one's enemies (Shankhen Hatva Rakshansi). Keeping it at the place of worship brings wealth, good luck and prosperity to the individual and the family.

Since, Shankha is one of fourteen ratnas extracted from Samudra Manthan that came along with Goddess Laxmi, thus it is also called Laxmi Bhrata (Brother of Laxmi) which is why scriptures say that the Goddess of Wealth resides in a home where a Shankha is kept at the place of worship. Vishwamitra Samhita and Goraksha Samhita have termed Dakshinavarti Shankh as the wealth and health creator for the families. If filled with water and sprinkled around any premises, it tones down adverse planetary effects and brings peace to the ambience.

The benefits of a Dakshinavarti Shankh are abounds:

‱ It brings prosperity, abundance and peace.
‱ Filling it with water and sprinkling around premises reduces evil forces.
‱ As a propagator of knowledge and divinity, it is good for the enlightenment of students and professionals alike.

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca.

She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
