Śrī Agastya Kāraṇa Pañcākṣara Mūla Mantra Sādhanā
Śrī Agastya Maharishi, a revered sage, received sacred knowledge from the Ūrdhva Āmnāya (the upward-facing direction) of Sadāśiva’s Īśāna face.
Śrī Lalitā is also known by the name Agastyamayī, which means “She who manifests in the form of Agastya.”
The Śrī Agastya Kāraṇa Pañcākṣara Mūla Mantra Sādhanā is a spiritual practice through which one can receive both Śiva’s grace and the blessings of the Guru via the medium of the great sage Agastya.

- Am Um Mam – This is the mantra form combined with the bindu of Praṇava (Om).
