ബ്രഹ്മാ മുരാരിഃ ത്രിപുരാംതകാരീ ഭാനുഃ

The Navagraha refers to the nine celestial bodies in Hindu astrology, which include the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Lord Rahu, and Lord Ketu. These celestial bodies are believed to have a significant influence on human lives and are often worshipped to mitigate their adverse effects and enhance their positive influences. The verse Brahma Murari Tripuranatakari is a prayer to the Navagraha, invoking each of the nine celestial deities by their traditional epithets. The verse begins by addressing Lord Brahma, Lord Murari (a name for Lord Vishnu), and Tripurantakari (a name for Lord Shiva), symbolizing the creation, preservation, and destruction aspects of the universe.
