The verse says, She is everybodys essence of Consciousness. Her form of universal Consciousness is in every being.

(5:17 Sri Sri Chandi).

The science of the 'Self' is the only scientific Science in the realm of the great Vedic Seer's (R^iShi) who have declared that truth which is self-effulgent is hidden in the 'Guha (Cave of Hearth)'. Dasha (i.e. Ten dimensional aspect of universe ; 9 space dimensions and 1 time dimension) Mahavidyas Vidya means knowledge but in the tradition this word is synonymous with both a Devi (Shakti, i.e. Supreme Power) and her Mantra form. Mantra is divinity in its purest form as sound. Yantra is divinity represented as diagram, also called Yantra is the heart of Devi and the Dhyana or meditation form, is considered to be the grossest representation. But these forms are given as ways of concentrating the mind easily. Major forms of the goddess are (1st)Kali, (2nd)Tara, (3rd)Tripura Sundari, (4th)Bhuvaneshvari, (5th)Cchinnamasta, (6th)Bhairavi, (7th)Dhumavati, (8th)Bagala, (9th)Matangi, and (10th)Kamala. These ten aspects of Shakti are the epitome of the entire creation.

The Kaulas traditional measures of Time (Kala) are ideal or spiritual measures. Adepts of the Kalachakra (Zodiac) were well aware of perturbations in planetary cycles, in the year and in the month. Consistent with this view is the concept that people are, like the real solar system, subject to fluctuations, perturbations and inequalities. The periods are based on the numbers 27, 54, 108, 360 and 21600 (i.e. 360degree multiply by 60 minutes), numbers which we find recurring again and again in Kaula-Tantrik. That which is real is the respiration, say Sanskrit texts. A respiration consists of two halves, an inhalation and an exhalation. The

meshing of Time, Astronomy and Breath is the Kalachakra. Kala = Time, Kalachakra means Wheel of Time. Relating our own body to cosmology, our earth centre, our physical or planetary body, is sustained by food. Our emotional centre (Soul) is sustained by breath. Our intellectual centre (Moon) is sustained by impressions. Speech is breath modulated by the physical organism in various ways - depth of breathing, muscle tension, shape of mouth and shape of mental impressions. The goddess or Shakti is the whole circle of the Zodiac, Time, the Sun, Moon and Planets, the Constellations, Breath (Prana) and Matrika (Matrix). Matrika Shakti rules all letters of the alphabet, all mantra, and all speech. Words are said to have a delusive nature (Mahamaya Matrika) because the word itself, although it may contain a reference to an object is often surrounded by clusters or Kulas of lesser Shaktis. These lesser Shaktis themselves indicate other references to objects. These Shaktis include what are called 'associations of thought, clusters of sense impressions, connected perhaps by links which are unique to an individual.

The word Yoga has at least five meanings, - 1. Addition, 2. Union or integration, 3. Eternity (with reference to time), 4. Action, 5. The state of Oneness between the seeking self and the ultimate Self. Yoga is the transformation of the mind complex and its activity. Yoga is the process, and the goal is return to the One Absolute. By power of Goddess Tripurasundari, assault the three cities of woe. The Ajna chakra is situated in between the eyebrows. When kundalini energises this chakra ones thought power becomes tremendous. One can realize the past, present and future. It is called third eye or Rudra's eye or spiritual eye.

Astrology, essentially, is a knowledge of the stars (Astro) and knowledge by the help of the stars. The Encyclopedia of Astrology defines it as The science which treats of the influence upon human character of cosmic forces emanating from the celestial bodies. It has been spoken as the soul of Astronomy. The antiquity places it amongst the earlier records of human learnings. To those ancient astrologers we owe the modern science of Astronomy. According to the Hindu lore astrology reached its zenith some two hundred thousand years ago and is presumed to have been taught by Manu who had charge of the fourth root race. Sidereal astrology, known in India as jyotish, is an integral part of the yogic traditions. "Tat Tvam Asi"
