Sincere spiritual devotees keep fast on all nine days, or at least once in each of the three three-day periods, by taking milk and fruits only.





Samput Paath

Samput refers to the clear and explicitly stated words or mantras or slokas, which are usually followed with a specific path of any Hindu scripture used in the beginning, middle or end of the mantra paath.

The Samput makes the mantras more intense, stronger, and marked. The patha when done with Samput mantra, becomes a thousand times more valuable than the original one and gives escalated results.

There are distinctly separate samput viddhis to be used with all the sacred scriptures. But every scripture has the potential to be used with a samput mantra. The Samput holds a special significance in Durga Saptashati Path or in other mantras and are to be used very carefully and cautiously.
