Hi all, I am here with a strange problem, that is driving anxiety:hide:, I have taken so many lesseons, and can drive too, but everytime I sit in the car, I feel like I am driving a lethal weapon, which only cause damage, and treat to others, in that fear, I end up making some sort of mistakes, now it's like do or die situation, I have to take my son to kindy and car is the only mean of transportation, no bus is available during his kindy hrs and also have to cover long distance.............I used go by walk, but now it's winter n cann't go by walk, it will be raining most of the times. Is there any shloka available for Courage? Please help me out.......... shwetha
Hi Shwetha, Pray to lord Hanuman for courage. Read Hanuman Chalisa for 3 times daily / atleast you can put the audio and hear to it while driving. Another option is Lalitha Sahasranamam you can chant/ listen to this also. Have a peaceful & safe driving by god's grace. Cheers Rabhs
Shweta, along with chanting the slokas, try this mudra too. Before starting the car, just keep your eyes closed and breath deeply in and out 5 times. Then bring all your five fingers of right hand together so that all the tips are touching one another. then keep it in the forhead between your eyebrows and starting point of the nose. apply very slight pressure. This will help in control anxiety or anger. There is a learning stage for everyone, after which one will become a experienced driver. Be confident and slowly you will come over this. All the best.
Shweta, Sometimes, we all have these fears that seem so irrational to others, but are very real to us. You will be able to get over this fear, and will be a safe driver for yourself and others, don't worry. Just chant the Sree Vishnu Sahasranaamam mantra/naamam,'OM YOGAVIDAM NETRE NAMAHA'. This will ensure a safe journey. You can chant this for all journeys- by car, rail,air.Whether you are driving or are a passenger. It works well. Also, below is a slokam from Srimad Bhagavatham, called Dhenuka stotram. CHanting this will save you from all mishaps while driving. I got this from another group of which I am a subscriber. Dhenuka Vadham Soka 41 in Srimad Bhagavatham 'KRISHNAM KAMALAPATHRAKSHAHA PUNYA SRAVANA KEERTHANAHA STHUYAMANNONUGAIRGOPAIHI SAGRAJOVRAJAMAVRAJATH RAMACHANDRAN' To get courage while driving and in any situation, take in a deep breath and say,'Om Pratyangiraayai Namaha'. You will actually feel HER strength seeping through you. I have experienced this myself. Best of luck!
