Om Gurubyo Namah!
I am searching for a good Dakshinamurthy mantra for removing shadripu.
Little background...
In my horoscope I have Guru in 2nd bhava (in Leo Rasi) and is aspecting 6th bhava (Sagittarius). Guru sitting alone in Leo and he is also my Atma Karaka.
So...
I figured if I pray Guru in Dakshinamurthy form I can get over my shadripu.
Now...
There is one Mantra suggested by PVRji ( which he recommended for removing confusion for astrologers).
"Om Shreem Dhleem Medha Dakshinamurthaye Namah"
Even though he recommended this for removing confusion I thought this will be good because it has 6 words and 13 Aksharas. So it will help me cleanse the 6th bhava and there by help me overcome shadripu.
Gurujis,
Please help me.
Thanks and Regards,
Deepak

Hello Deepak,
I was very happy to read that you were interested in overcoming the 6 forms of weakness in Humans by prayer. You need to recheck your Trimsamsa too[assuming your birth time is accurate].Your Jupiter occupies the Libra Rasi. So it is advisable to include the planetory Diety connected
with Venus, the Jala Tatwa which is Devi.The study of Trimsamsa makes an interesting reading.Also the placements of planets in Rasi shows the individual Shad-ripu.Anyway I am furnishing the various prayers for Guru as under. Dont forget to start with invocation to Maha Ganapathy.

Dear Avamji,
Thanks a lot for sharing the valuable slokas on Lord Guru. Let me paste the Dakshinamurthy Ashtakam. I would request u to explain us the term Sadi-ripu please in detail.
Adi Sankaracharya’s Dakshinamurthy Ashtakam or Dakshinamurti Astakam is a very unique devotional hymn in praise of Lord Dakshinamurthy (Jnana Dakshinamurti) an incarnation of Lord Shiva as a guru (teacher) of all type of knowledge, particularly the Jnana.
Dakshinamurthy Ashtakam is among the many great Stotras written by Adi Shankaracharya. Dakshinamurthy Astakam is not simply a prayer, but it is a summary of all those philosophies that Adi Sankaracharya tries to teach his disciples. Dakshinamurthy Ashtakam features an introductory sloka, followed by eight slokas, which is again followed by a slokam of Phala sruthi.
Dakshinamurthy Ashtakam Lyrics
Mouna Vyakhya prakatitha, para,

The following three stanzas as well as the first stanza are chanted after the main stotra:-
Chitram Vata tharor mole vruddha,
Sishya, Guror Yuva,
Gurostu mounam vykhyanam,
Sishyasthu china samsaya
Om nama pranavarthaya,
Suddha jnanaika moorthaye nama,

Nidhaye sarva vidhyanam,

Shree Dakshinamoorthy Navarathna Maliga Sthothram
Respected Avamji & Prasanna ji,
Thanks for the Sloga's and Sthothras.
I would like to post a sthothram on Lord Dakshinamoorthy (which I use to chant in my daily pooja). I have searched in google with respect to the author of this sthothram but unfortunately not succeeded with my attempts.
