Word-by-Word Breakdown
Origin & History
Source: Skanda Purana (Angaraka Stotram)
Author: Sage Virupangiras (rishi of the mantra)
Period: Puranic
The Angaraka Stotram is preserved in the Skanda Purana, with the sage Virupangiras named as its rishi, Agni as the presiding deity and Gayatri as its metre. It belongs to the family of planetary (Navagraha) hymns recited for graha-shanti — the pacification of the nine planets. Mars (Mangala) is described in the Puranas as Bhumiputra, the son of the Earth goddess, a fierce, red, four-armed warrior who rules energy, courage and land; this stotra gathers his most sacred names so that the reciter may win his grace and be freed from debt, disease and want.
