hello Ilites, can anybody suggest me a mantra that can be recited before driving vehciles . I am relatively new to US and I have just started learning driving. I g et so scared and since I havent driven a car in India, I get all the more panic. Can anyone suggest me a stotra / sloka that can be chanted to overcome such fears and drive confidentally. I usually chant " Shuklam bharatharam" and " om saieshwarya vidmahe". any other suggestion pls... Veena
Any ganpathy mantra will do. Recite anything that makes you feel confident or any of your fav god's sloka which you like.

Devi Kavacam : Protection Armour Hi, My personal recommendation for physical protection (whether for driving, travel or just overall protection) is to recite Devi Kavacam. Devi Kavacam is basically a suit of amour by calling on the various incarnations of Devi to protect various body parts. You need nothing more than this! Below is the text for Devi Kavacam. You can recite it daily; even if not traveling. It only takes about 10-12 minutes; a small time investment considering the invaluable divine protection it provides. śri durgāyai namaḥ atha devyāḥ kavacam oṃ asya śrī caṇdīkavacasya brahmā ṛṣiḥ
