SHANI MANTRA

Shani Dev is one of the most popular deities that the Hindus pray to ward off evil and remove obstacles. Shani literally means the slow-moving-one. According to myths, Shani oversees the “dungeons of the human heart and the dangers that lurks there.“ Shani is represented as having a dark complexion and is said to be the son of Surya, the sun god, and Chaya, the servant whom his wife Swarna surrogated. He is the brother of Yama, the god of death and is believed by many to be an avatar of Shiva.
