✦ Meaning

The Rinamochaka Mangala Stotram (also Rina-Vimochana Angaraka Stotram), spoken by Bhargava in the Skanda Purana, is the most celebrated hymn for release from debt. In twelve verses it recites the names of Mangala (Mars) — Bhumiputra, Kuja, Bhauma, Angaraka — and beseeches him as 'Rinaharta', the remover of debt, to destroy the devotee's loans, poverty and sorrows. Its phalashruti promises that one who recites it with faith never falls into debt, quickly gains wealth, and becomes like a youthful second Kubera.

Origin & Story

Skanda Purana (Rinamochaka / Rina-Vimochana Angaraka Stotram, spoken by Bhargava) · Bhargava (Shukracharya) — as narrated in the Skanda Purana · Puranic

The Rinamochaka Mangala Stotram appears in the Skanda Purana as a teaching of Bhargava (Shukracharya) on how to win freedom from debt through the grace of Mars. In Hindu astrology Mars (Mangala / Kuja / Bhauma), the fiery son of the Earth goddess Bhumi, governs energy, courage, land and — significantly — loans and debt. This hymn gathers his names and offers a heartfelt surrender, asking the 'king of the planets' to dissolve the devotee's debts, poverty and fears. It remains one of the most widely recited remedies in the Navagraha tradition for those burdened by financial difficulty.

✦ As told in scripture

Tradition holds that those crushed by debt who recite this stotra on twelve successive Tuesdays, or daily for a forty-day mandala, find their loans mysteriously cleared and fresh wealth flowing in; the hymn itself promises that the sincere reciter 'becomes like a second Kubera, young and vigorous', never again falling into want.
