Shri Buddhi Stotra


Shri Buddhi Stotra

Shri Buddhi Stotra is in Sanskrit and it is written by shri Yadnayavalkya Rushi. It is a prayer made to Saraswati, Goddess of knowledge, intelligence, Speech, Poetry, Arts, singing, Memory and literature. Shri Yadnayavalkya Rushi is asking Devi Saraswati for the blessings. He is telling the Goddess that he has lost his memory, knowledge, intelligence and asking for her favour to give him everything again.
In the Stotra he reminds Saraswati how she had given her blessings to many people. At the end Goddess Saraswati appears in front of the Rushi and assures him to give him everything he has asked for.
By reciting this stotra, daily with faith and concentration we receive blessings from Saraswati and get proficiency in Speech, Poetry, knowledge etc.

बुद्धिस्तोत्र मराठी अर्थः 
याज्ञवल्क्य ॠषी म्हणाले: 
१) हे सरस्वती माते, गुरुंच्या शापामुळे मी स्मृतिहीन, विद्याहीन होउन अतिदुःखी आणि तेजहीन झालो आहे. माझ्यावर तू कृपा कर. 
२-३) मला ज्ञान, स्मृति, विद्या, शिष्यांना प्रबोधन करण्याची शक्ती, ग्रंथकर्तृत्व शक्ती, प्रतिष्ठित, उत्तम शिष्यवर्ग, सज्जन, विद्वानांच्या सभेंत सुंदर विचारक्षमता दे. माझ्या दैवयोगामुळे हे सर्व लुप्त झाले आहे. तू त्याचे माझ्याठिकाणी पुनरुज्जीवन कर. 
४-५-६) देवता या राखेंतूनसुद्धा अंकुर निर्माण करतात, त्याप्रमाणे तू माझे सर्व मला परत मिळवून दे. ब्रह्मस्वरुप, परमज्योतिस्वरुप, सनातन आणि सर्व विद्यांची देवता, वाणीस्वरुप सरस्वतीला माझा नमस्कार असो. हे सरस्वती, विसर्ग, अनुस्वार, मात्रा यांचे अधिष्ठान असे अक्षर, त्याची अधिष्ठात्री देवी तूच आहेस तूला मी नेहमी नमस्कार करतो. व्याख्यारुप आणि व्याख्येची अधिष्ठात्री देवी तूंच आहेस. 
 ७) हे देवी, फार मोठी अशी संख्या तुझ्यावाचुन करता येणे अशक्य आहे. कालसंख्यारुपी अशा देवी तूला माझा वारंवार नमस्कार असो. 
 ८-११) भ्रम-सिध्दांतरुपी अशा देवी तूला माझा वारंवार नमस्कार असो. हे देवी, तूच स्मृतिशक्ति, ज्ञानशक्ति आणि बुद्धिशक्ति स्वरुपिणी आहेस. प्रतिभा आणि कल्पनाशक्ति अशा देवी तूला माझा वारंवार नमस्कार असो. सनत्कुमाराने ब्रह्मदेवाला ज्ञानाविषयी विचारले असता तो सांगायला जाताच मुका झाला. म्हणुन तो भगवान श्रीकृष्णाकडे गेला असता त्याला भगवानानी ते सर्व सरस्वतिची स्तुती करुन वाग्देवतेला विचारावयास त्याला सांगितले. त्याप्रमाणे ब्रह्मदेवाने सरस्वतिचे स्तवन केल्यावर तिच्या कृपेने त्याला निश्चित ज्ञान प्राप्त झाले. 
१२-१६) पृथ्वीने ज्ञान प्राप्तीच्या ईच्छेने शेषाला विचारले असता तोही मुका झाला, तेव्हां त्याने कश्यपऋषींच्या सांगण्याप्रमाणे सरस्वतीची स्तुती केल्यावर त्याचा भ्रम नाहीसा होऊन त्याला निर्मळ ब्रह्मज्ञानाची सरस्वती कृपेने प्राप्ती झाली. व्यासऋषीनी पुराणे आणि सूत्रांविषयी वाल्मिकीना विचारले असता तेसुद्धा मुक झाले. त्यानी जगदंबेचे स्मरण केल्यावर ज्ञानप्राप्ती होऊन मगच व्यासांचे समाधान त्याना करता आले. व्यासांनी वाल्मिकींकडून पुराणे आणि सूत्रांविषयी ज्ञान प्राप्त करुन घेतल्यानंतर सरस्वतीचे पुष्करक्षेत्री शंभरवर्षे ध्यान केले आणि नंतर ते सरस्वतीच्या कृपेने कविे श्रेष्ठ झाले. 
१७-२०) मग व्यासानी वेदांचे वर्गीकरण केले आणि पुराणे रचिली. महेन्द्राने शंकराकडे ज्ञानाविषयी विचारले तेव्हां त्याने सरस्वतीचे ध्यान करुन तिच्या कृपेने ज्ञान प्राप्ती करुन घेतली आणि महेन्द्राची जिज्ञासा पुरी केली. बृहस्पतिला महेन्द्राने शब्दशास्त्राविषयी विचारले असता बृहस्पतीने दिव्य सहस्रवर्षे तप करुन सरस्वतीला प्रसन्न करुन घेऊन तिच्या कृपेने इंद्राला शब्दशास्त्राचे ज्ञान दिले. 
२१) देवेन्द्राने ज्या शिष्यांना व्याकरणशास्त्राचे ज्ञान दिले, त्यानीसुद्धा अध्यापन करताना सरस्वतीचे ध्यान केले आणि तिच्या कृपेने ते आपापल्या कार्यास उद्दुक्त झाले. 
२२-२७) हे देवि! श्रेष्ठमुनि, मनु, मानव, दैत्यराज, ब्रह्मा-विष्णु-महेश आदि सर्व देवांनीही तुझे स्तवन केले आहे. तुझे स्तवन करण्यास सहस्रमुख शेषनाग, पंचमुख शंकर आणि चतुर्मुख ब्रह्मदेव जडीभूत झाले, असे असता माझ्यासारखा यःकिंचित मानव तुझे स्तवन कसे बरे करु शकेल? असे बोलून याज्ञल्क्यमुनी भक्तीभावाने देवी सरस्वती समोर विनम्र झाले. नंतर ते देवीची कृपा व्हावी म्हणुन वारंवार तीला नमस्कार करत, निराहार राहून स्फूंदूनस्फूंदून रडू लागले. त्यानंतर ती ज्योतिरुप, महामाया सरस्वती त्याच्यासमोर प्रगट झाली व त्याला म्हणाली, हे याज्ञवल्क्य मुनी तू माझ्या कृपेने उत्तम कवि होशिल. असे बोलून लगेचच ती वैकुंठास निघुन गेली. याज्ञवल्क्य मुनिनी केलेले हे स्तोत्र जो कोणी म्हणेल तो बृहस्पतीसारखा महान विद्वान आणि उत्तम कवि होईल. जर एखादा महामूर्ख किंवा जडबुद्धि असेल आणि हे स्तोत्र तो वर्षभर म्हणेल तर तो निश्चयाने कवि, बुद्धिमान व पंडित होईल. 
अशा प्रकारे याज्ञवल्क्यमुनीनी रचिलेले हे बुद्धिस्तोत्र संपूर्ण झाले.
