How to Benefit from Durga Saptashati [Hindi with English CC]

In this discourse, Om Swami answers a question on the Durga Saptashati - How it should be recited and its benefits.
Durga Saptashati is a description of Ma Jagdamba - it is a story and describes how she fought and won many battles with asuras. But once you have read the story once, if you keep re-reading it, there would be no interest left and no further knowledge gained.
So, for someone who wants to recite the Durga Saptashati, once you have read it and understood it, focus on chanting some of its powerful mantras instead. One mantra is a Sri Vidya mantra and the other is the Navarna mantra. The only exception to this is if you know Sanskrit and you enjoy chanting in Sanskrit, you can recite the Durga Saptashati with good rhythm and tone. Because then you are doing it for enjoyment and not benefits.

Swami ji, is it necessary to follow so many rituals? Can't we simply recite it in the morning, any chapter with devotion?

[@rajeswarivaradharaj5817]

Yes

[@rameshram1057]

As per Swamiji no benefits accrue by repeated chanting of Saptasathi. By benefits Swamiji means spiritual growth or loukika benefits? Many try Chandi japam and do chandi havan for loukika benefits like solving health issues etc.
I have done satachandi havan but no loukika benefits could get.
Dear Swamiji please explain.

Swamiji, it's such a great tip to first learn the meaning, and then listen to the Sanskrit Shlokas. I just finished your Bhaja Govindam series here on CZcams ( played them on repeat, they are soo good! ), and then I started listening to Bhaj Govindam Sanskrit bhajan/song, and now, it has become my favorite bhajan! :)

This must have been specifically for me. It’s exactly what happened and after a long period, I had to simply put it aside, even when one enjoyed the Sanskrit chanting. Became SO repetitive that the mind wandered during the reading. And, yes, the Navarn mantra was absorbed and has stayed. A relief to get this reassurance. Thank you 🙏🏻.

दुर्गा सप्तशती का प्रत्येक श्लोक मंत्र वत है यदि कोई हिंदी में ही इसके तेरह अध्याय का पाठ करता है तो भी मा उस पर प्रसन्न होती है
शुक्ल पक्ष की प्रथमा से पूरे तीसो दिन तक नित्य सप्तशती पाठ करने को नित्याचंडी पाठ कहते है जिसका बड़ा महात्म है आप
