Introduction
With the anugrahA of the GurumaNDalam, we have received several positive reviews
about this magazine. These feedback act as a catalyst for us to bring out the rare gems
from the ocean called shrI vidyA and share it with the upAsakA community.
This issue comes with four main topics
-

traipura siddhAntham
tAntrika sandhyAvandanam
shrI nagara vimarshanam and related AvaraNams
patishad rudra meditation

I am delighted mention that we have been fortunate to receive the article written by Shri.
G. Subramaniam (vRishabhAnandanAthA) (grandson of ShrI ChidAnandanAthA,
son of Shri pUrNAnandanAthA, and disciple of Shri yOgAnandanAtha [Injikollai
KunjithapAdam iyer] ). He has been kind enough to provide the article on the very
important topic Traipura siddhAnthA. He has written it in a very simple language, easy
enough for even a beginner to understand and contemplate.
One of the nityanushtana krama of every shrividya upasaka is the tantrika
sandhyavandana. I am sure most of us are aware of such a thing in existence and
several senior upasakas would have had this krama as part of their routine. However, in
the current generation, atleast based on my interactions with the upasakas, I feel that
this procedure is either ignored or forgotten. When I asked around for the reason for not
following the tantrika sandhya, the common response I get is that it is complicated or
unclear. Hence, it was decided to include the tantrika sandhya procedure (as in SrividyA
nithyAhnikam written by Sri ChidAnandanAtha.) in this issue by breaking it up into small
steps with detailed instructions in English to help Upasakas to follow it. Once taken into
a daily routine, this tantrika sandhya krama should not take more than 5 minutes. I hope
this would help the upasakas to perform this nithya anushtana and bring this into their
daily routine.
One of the greatness of the shrIvidyA path is its universal acceptance - does not
differentiate between the varnAs, caste, or gender. Everyone is eligible to enter into this
path and merge with Lalitha MahAtripurasundari. Now, for those people who are part of
a varnAsramA or gender that does not prescribe a sandhyAvandana kramA, they all are
eligible to and should perform tantrika sandhyavandana and give arghyA to not only
LalithAmbA but also the the pratyasha dEvatA - SUryA. Those who are part of those

varnAshrama that prescribes a sandhyavandana in their daily routine, should perform


that vaidhika nithya anushtana but also include tantrika sandhyA vandanA as part of
their routine.
TAntrika sandhyA is performed four times during a 24 hour period - PrAtha sandhyA Morning (Just before Sunrise), MAdhyAnika SandhyA - Noon (When the sun it on the
top of the head), SAyam SandhyA - Evening (During Sunset), and Turiya SandhyA Midnight.
Pratha SandhyA, Madhyanika SandhyA, and SAyam SandhyA use the panchadashi
mantra for giving tarpana to MahAtripurasundari. In the text provided, the kAdi vidhya
mantra has been used. If a person belongs to the hAdi vidhya or sAdi vidhya, those
mantras should be used for giving tarpana to Mahatripurasundari.
In the case of turiya SandhyA, the tarpana mantra will be the same for all upAsakas
regardless of their paramparA. However, the kadi vidya kUtas in the gayathri mantras
should be replaced by their relevant hAdi or sAdi vidya kUtas for the arghya mantrA.
Those upAsakAs who have received the turiya vidhyA mantra from their Guru can
perform the Turiya sandhyA. If in doubt, please check with your Guru prior to performing
the Turiya SandhyAvandanA.
Please note: The purvAnga krama and upastha krama are common for all the four
sandhyA vandanAs. Hence they are just listed once. However, purvAnga kramA
should be done BEFORE the sandhyAvandanA and the upasthAna kramA should
be AFTER the sandhyavandana.
It is very important for each of the shrividyA upAsakA to read lalitOpAkhyAnA atleast
once to understand and contemplate on how and why lalitAmbA appeared and the tatva
behind the battle with bhaNDAsura and his army. After the killing of bhanDAsurA, the
dEvAs praise the empress with lalitA stuti (this is included in this issue) and build
palaces for her to rule from. These palaces have multiple layers(forts) and each of them
are guarded by dEvatAs and those dEvatAs have anga and upAnga dEvatAs and
AvaraNAs as well. In this issue, a very high level description of the shrInagara is
included and the AvaraNas for mahAkAlA, vasantaRutunAthA, and mahArudrA are
produced.
Shri. Ramesh Kutticad (AtmAnandanAthA) has been kind enough to share an excellent
article on patishad rudrA meditation and this gem of an article is a proof on how
lalitAmbA is revealing Herself through the words of AtmAnandanAthA. He has also
answered several questions received by us from the upAsakavRundhA.
The photos included in the first page of this issue are the mUla vigrahAs of the lalitA
shakti pITam in prayAg. SatIs fingers fell at this place. The primary temple is supposed

to be at MiyApur. However, there is another temple called KalyAni mandir which is also
claiming that it is the true shakti pIth. Hence, it is suggested to visit both temples to
avoid this confusion.The top photo is from the lalitA mandir in miyApur and the bottom
photo is from the kalyAni mandir. The interesting thing about the lalitA mandir is that
there are about 116 mErus in that temple and puJas and abhishEkas are done to all of
them on parvA days (see picture below). It is a true treat to witness that.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to my Gurupatni


AnandAmbA (Smt Geetha Shivakumar), Shri AtmAnandanAthA (Ramesh
Kutticad), and my father Shri. Elandai. S. Ramasami for taking the time and
performing the tedious work of proof reading this magazine. It is because of them,
several spell errors and procedural errors have been eliminated in this issue and this emagazine has come out to be a worthwhile edition that can be used by the UpAsakA
community.
Lalithai vEdam sarvam.
Surrendering to the holy pAdukAs of Shri Guru,

oS Mi ssi xii - ssimZrl


On the fourth day of the battle between lalitA and bhaNDAsurA, shrI lalitAmbA destroys
bhaNDAsurA and returns back to her place with her army. With the killing of
bhaNDAsurA, the devAs are relieved from their bondage and gather around shrI
lalitAmbA.
brahmA, vishNu, rudrA, indrA, digpAlakAs, AdityAs,vasUs, marudgaNAs, siddhAs,
kiMpuruShAs, yakShAs, mahAshayAs, etc started praying lalitAmbA with utmost
devotion and bhakti. This prayer is provided in the 27th chapter of lalitOpAkhyAnA and is
listed below. The beauty of this stuti is that it addresses the entire navAvaraNa pUjA
and can be chanted during the pUjA.

ShrInagara vimarshanaM
LalitOpAkhyANa describes the enchanting beauty of the shrInagara through hayagrIvA.
This is covered in Chapters 28 through 33. This article will cover a gist of these chapters
and expand on the important AvaraNa pUjas specified in these chapters. Great
stalwarts like ShrI SomadEva sharmA and Shri ChidAnandanAthA have written
commentaries on this portion of the brahmAnDa purAnA. The focus of this article is to
only highlight the various AvaraNa pUjAs that are specified in lalitOpAkhyAnA while
describing the shrInagaram. Thus, a context can be established on how these devatAs
are linked with lalitArAdhanA and why they are important to upAsakAs of lalitAmbA.
Upon completion of the bhaNDAsura yuddhA, brahmA, vishNu, and rudrA approached
the dEva shilpI vishvakarmA and the asura shipI mayA and asked them to construct a
grand palace (shrinagarA) for lalitAmbikA at 16 different places. The shipIs agreed to
this immediately and enquired about the location. The kAranEshvarAs responded that
shrInagarA be constructed at nine mountains and seven seas viz - mEru, niShita,
hEmakUTA, hEmagiri, gandhamAdanA, nIlamEshA, shrIngagiri, mAhEndragiri, and
mahAgiri on mountains and salt sea, sugarcane juice sea, nectar (wine) sea, ghee sea,
curd sea, milk sea, and crystal water sea in water. All these will be exactly the same in
size and structure and will be named after the nithyAdEvis like kAmeshvarIpurI,
bhagamAlinIpurI, nityaklinnApurI etc. Since there is no difference between the nityAs
and lalitAmbA (mahAnityA) the various palaces are identical and made worthy for the
empress. The mEru mountain was selected for mahAnityA and even though the
description of the shrInagara is given for the mEru shrinagara, the blueprint is exactly
the same for all the 16 kShEtrAs.
The mEru mountain is the base foundation for shrinagarA and it has four peaks - in the
east, southwest, northwest, and in the middle. The three corner peaks have an area of
10,000 yojanas (90,000 sq.miles). The middle peak is four times taller and wider than
the other three (360,000 sq.miles). It is in this middle peak, Srinagara was constructed.
Multiple layers of outer walls/forts were constructed prior to reaching Chintamani Gruha,
the house of lalitAmbikA. There are twenty five forts (Eight Metallic forts, nine gem forts,
one gem mantapa, one thousand pillar mantapa, mano maya, budhimaya,
ahankaramaya, suryabimba, candrabimba, and shringAra forts) with four gOpuras in
each fort (thus totalling 100 gOpurAs) and each of these forts have different
charactersitics. The areas between the forts are filled with gardens, lakes, and houses
for the guardians of the corresponding fort and also other devatAs that dwell in those
areas.

33

The first layer is made up of Iron. This layer has a perimeter of 1,600 yojanas (14,400
miles). Each side is 400 yojanas (3,600 miles) length. The height of the fort wall is 4
yoganas (36 miles). The width of the wall is 1 yojana (9 miles). There are steps at each
side to enter the fort and each step is 9 miles long. The doors to enter the fort are also
made of Iron and there are two Iron doors at each of the four entrances. Each of these
doors is 9 miles high and 1 mile long. The door lock is half a mile long.
On each of these entrances, a tower (gOpuram) was constructed. As mentioned earlier,
the fort wall has a width of 1 yojana (9 miles). However, wherever gOpurams are
constructed, an additional 2 yojanAs (18 miles) on either side of the walls are used.
Thus the base of the gOpuram is 5 yOjanas (45 miles) wide and the perimeter of the
base of the gOpuram is 20 yojanAs (180 miles). The height of the gopuram is 25
yOjanas (225 miles).
The gOpuram is layered after each yOjanA and hence there are 25 layers for each
gOpuram. The gOpuram narrows down as it gets higher and higher. The top most layer
of the gOpuram is 36 miles in perimeter with the length of each side being 9 miles. At
the top of the gOpuram, there are 3 kalashAs (makutam) and each of the kalashas is 2
miles wide and 4 miles high. This is the blue print for all of the fort walls.
Seven yOjanas (63 miles) inside the Iron fort, another fort made of bronze was
constructed. The area between the two forts has a garden with all forms of trees and
plants (nAnAvRukSha mahOdhyAnam). Seven jOjanAs (63 miles) inside the Bronze fort
is the Copper fort. The area between the Bronze and Copper fort has kalpa vRukSha
garden called kalpavATikA. These trees have gems as the seeds, fruits with golden
skin, coral flowers and Amruta as the nectar. Seven jOjanAs (63 miles) inside the
Copper fort is the sIsa (Eeyam - an alloy) fort. The area between the Copper and sIsa
fort is called santhAna vATikA which is equivalent to the kalpavATikA.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the sIsa fort is the brass fort. The area between the
sIsa fort and the brass fort is called harichandana vAtikA. In this garden, the beautiful
haricandana trees flower and spread fragrance like the kalpavRukSha trees. Seven
yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the brass fort is the panchalOha fort. The area between these
two is called mandhAravATikA. The mandhAra flowers spread the fragrance in this
garden. Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the panchalOhA fort is the silver fort. The area
between these forts is called the pArijAtadrumavAtikA where beautiful pArijAtha trees
flower and spread the divine fragrance around. Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the
silver fort is the golden fort. The area between these forts is called kadambavana
vATikA. Here beatiful kadambA trees that are 18 miles high are grown. The flowers from
these kadambA trees are filled with nectar and out of these nectars came the yOginI
called kAdambarI. MantrinI dEvi is very fond of this yOginI. In this kadambavanavAtikA,
the nIpa trees gives good shadows and nectar filled flowers that are always surrounded

34

by the joyful bees that dance with glee. mantriNI (rAja shyAmalA) has a house in this
garden. Four houses were constructed at each of the four corners of this garden. The
area of each house is 25 yOjanAs (225 sq miles). MantriNi lives in the house with seven
layers (saptAvaraNA). Since mantriNi has the key responsibility of being the prime
minister in the court of lalitA, she has a house near the cintAmaNi gruhA and hence
lives there as well.
Each of the above forts is guarded by great vIrAs. The Iron fort is guarded by
mahAkAla. He lives in the nAnAvRukshamahOdhyAnA. He is of dark complexion, wears
black armours, red eyes, and drinks nectar called vishwarasam in a vessel called
brahmandam. His consort is mahAkAli. He sits on a throne called kalanA. Their cakram
is called kAlacakram which has 4 layers (AvaraNam) trikOnam, pancakOnam, 16
petalled lotus, and 8 petalled lotus. MahakAlA and mahAkAli sits in the bindu sthAnA of
this kAlachakra.
The kAlacakra and the mahAkAla avaranam are included in this issue.
The kalpavAtikA, santAnavAtikA, haricandanavATikA, mandAravATikA,
pArijAtadrumavATikA, kadamvanavATikA are guarded by vasanta Rutunatha,
gRishmaRutunAtha, varShaRutunAtha, sharadRutunAtha, hEmantaRutunAtha, and
shisiraRutunAtha respectively. These RutunAthas ride on vasanta cakra, gRishma
cakra, varSha cakra, sharad cakra, hEmanta cakra, and shisira cakra respectively. They
are seven layered (sapta avaranam) chakras. Each of these RutunAtha has avarana
pujAs.
The AvaraNa pUjA for vasanta RutunAtha is covered in this issue and the rest will
be covered in the future issues.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the gold fort is the pushparAga fort. The area between
the gold and pushparAga fort is occupied by siddhas and siddha strIs. Seven yOjanAs
(63 miles) inside the pushparAgA fort is the padamarAgA fort. The area between these
is occupied by sAranAs and sAranA shtrI's. They stay under the kalpavRukSha and are
joyfully immersed in the songs that praise the greatness of lalitAmbA. Seven yOjanAs
(63 miles) inside the padmarAga fort is the gOmEdakA fort. The area between these
forts is occupied by crores of yOginIs and bhairavAs. These yOginIs and bhairavAs
were formed from lalitA herself and they stay here praying to kAlasankarShiNI dEvi.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) from gOmEdakA fort is the vajrA (diamond) fort. The area
between these forts is occupied by gandharvAs and apsaras. Seven yOjanAs (63 miles)
from the vajrA fort is the vaidUryA fort. The area between these forts is occupied by
nAgAs and nAgastrIs. The river that flows here is cold and is filled with great swans and
sArasa birds. Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) from the vaidUryA fort is the indranIlA (blue
sapphire) fort. Those srividhyA upAsakAs that had the fortune of getting the

35

mantrOpadEsha of lalitAmbA and performed the prescribed nithya kramas as per guru
upadEsha but did not experience the oneness with lalitAmbA during their lifetime will
occupy the area between these forts after death. They will have the opportunity to
continue to their japa kramas here and if they can get relieved of the rAgadvEshAs, will
be able to merge with lalitAmbA from here; else would be born back as humans and the
cycle will continue.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) from indranIla fort is the muktA fort. The area between these
forts is filled with great rivers like tAmbraparnI, mahAparNI, sadAmuktA, sadOdakA. The
residents of this are the dEvA's and dEvA strIs. The astadigpAlakAs reside here. In the
eAst resides Indra with his consort. In the SouthEast resides Agni with SvAhA and
svadhA.
In the south resides yamA along with citraguptA, who is involved in lalitArAdhanA
constantly and engages in punishing those who are cursed by the Guru, those who
moved away from the path after getting the mantrOpAsanA, fools, theives, thugs,
sinners, murderers, and those who harm others (including other living things).
In the southwest lives nirruti and in the west lives varunA along with his consort vAruNi
dEvi. They are involved in lalitArcanA and punish those who move away from the path
prescribed by the sastras. He ties these people with his pAshA and throws them into the
deeper hell. Those upAsakAs that follow the path shown by their guru religiously are
relieved of the pAsha bandhAs and are shown the way to salvation.
In the northwest resides vAyu (mArutEshvarA) along with sapta rishIs, nAthAs like
gOraknAth, siddhas, and ciranjIvIs.
In the north lives kubErA (yakshEshvara) along with nine types of nidhIs (wealth) viz sankanidhi, padumanidhi, mahApadmanidhi, makaranidhi, kaccapanidhi, mukundanidhi,
kundanidhi, nIlanidhi and garvanidhi.He lives there with yakShas like manibadrA,
pUrNabadrA, maNimAn, and maNikandara.
In the NorthEast lives mahArudrA along with his rudra and rudrANI ganAs. MahA rudrA
lives here on a sixteen avarana chakra. This mahArudra AvarNa pUja is included in
this issue.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the muktA fort is the margatA (EmerAld) fort. The area
between these forts is filled with golden palm trees that are 9 miles high and filled with
fruits and nectars. In the four corners are four houses for vArAhi dEvi (dandanAthA) and
her assistants unmatta bhairavi, svapnEshI, tiraskaraNI, and kiripadA. The houses are
constructed similar to the kiri cakrA. Similar to mAtangI, dandanAthA also has a house
in mahApadmATavI and resides closer to lalitAmbA.

36

Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the maragatA fort is the coral fort. The area between
these forts is occupied by brahmA, vEdAs, and all sAstrAs. They are ever lasting and
hence even though they vanish from earth, when time comes, they are experienced and
revived again.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) insde the coral fort is the ruby hall. In this hall resides vishNu
in his twelve different forms. In the East lives kEshavA, west occupied by nArAyaNA,
top portion by mAdhavA, south by gOvindA, north by vishNu, southeast by
madhusUdanA, southwest by trivikramA, northwest by vAmanA, northeast by shrIdharA,
bottom portion by RushIkEshA. padmanAbhA revolves around the mandapA in the
clockwise direction and dAmOdharA in the anti-clockwise direction. All of them are
constantly involved in the lalitArAdhana kramA.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the ruby hall is the thousand pillared hall. In this hall
resides shiva along with His 28 shaivAgamAs. Nandi, bhrungI, mahAkAlA, dEvAs,
shivaganAs and ganEshagaNAs occupy this area and perform lalitA japa.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the thousand pillared hall is the manOmaya fort. A
lake filled with amrutA runs between these. This lake, called amRutavApikA, is 4
yOjanas (28 miles) deep. The fragrance of this lake is enough to make a person get
relieved of the pasha bandhas and attain salvation. Getting to this lake is not an easy
effort as the lake is full of swirls and requires the help of a skillful boat person. This lake
is under the control of a dEvi called tArA (tAraNEshvarI). Crossing the lake requires
permission from manthrini or DandinI and tArA dEvi will not let even Shiva get near the
lake without their permissions.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the manOmaya fort is the buddhimayA fort. A lake
filled with mahAmadhyaM (wine nectar) runs between these forts. This lake, called
AnandavApikA, is guarded by vAruNI dEvi (sudhAmAlinI or amrutEshvarI). Permissions
from mantrini and dandinI are required to cross the lake.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the buddhimayA fort is the ahankArA fort. A lake filled
with sushumnAmRutA (the nectar that runs in the sushumnA nAdi when the kundaliNi
shakti reaches the crest) runs between these fort. This lake, called vimarsha vApika, is
guarded by kurukullA dEvi. Permissions from mantrini and dandinI are required to cross
the lake.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the ahankArA fort is the sUryabimbA fort. The area
between these forts is made of kuruvinda gems. This gem radiates like the rising sun
and by the mere contact with those rays makes a human, deva, asura, or a siddha
shine like a sun. This area is called bAlAtapOdgArA and here resides the AdidtyAs who
are performing penance upon shri lalitA dEvi. All the suns, stars, constellations, eclipses
etc get their radiances because of the power of lalitA japA. mArtAnDa bhairavA is the

37

primary resident of this area who resides along with his AvaraNa shaktIs. His main
shakti is mahAprakAshA and he also has two other consorts cakShuShmati and chAyA.
Along with these shaktIs he makes the inner and outer layers of the lalitOpAskAs shine
and uproots the darkness called ignorance.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the sUryabimbA fort is the chandrabimbA fort. The
area between these forts is called candrikOdgArA and it gives the coolness and warmth
like the moon. Several rishiS perform their penances in this area. The primary resident
of this area is sOmanAthA (moon) and he removes the darkness during the night and
drinks the candrikAmRutA from the pAtrA called caShakam. He lives there with his 27
wives (ashvini, bharani etc.). In addition thousands of his AvaraNa shakti's like tArA
reside in this area.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside the candrabimba fort is the shRingAra fort. The area
between these forts is called mahAsRungAraparighA. This moat (agazhi) filled with
shRunkAra rasA is home for thousands of sRunkAra shaktIs headed by manmathA.
They make every person fall in love and lust and thus incapable of crossing the moat.
Permission from manmathA is needed to cross this moat and when a person secures
this permission, he is filled with lalitA bhakti, focussed concentration and meditation,
experiences oneness with lalitA and shines like a pure crystal. Those who dwell in
material world, with desires, with several sankalpAs, impure minded, greedy etc, cannot
even get near the shRunkAra parigA.
Seven yOjanAs (63 miles) inside this fort is the ChintAmani gRuhA. The area between
these is called the mahApadmATavI.

Pathishad rudra meditation


-

By AtmAnandanAthA (Shri Ramesh Kutticad)

One of the main morning bedside rituals of a Srividyopasaka is chanting the rasmimala of 37
mantras. The eighth mantra is pathishad rudra mantra which is found in the second set, to be
meditated at the forehead center. The fruit of recitation of this mantra is marga sankata hariremoval of dangers / discomforts in way- i.e. journey. The root word is path the way or route
taken for travel. The suffix shad will mean protection. The deity indicated is rudra- a fierce,
terrible form, hence the alertness is stressed. The forehead is a symbol of fate and thus the
journey of life is also hinted.
The dhyana sloka is




Aatta sajja dhanurbaaNa TankaiNaM vRUshabhasthitam


AnnapoorNaa samaaslishtam pathishadrudramaasraye
The mantra as per nityotsava / parasuramakalpa sutra is
om namo rudraaya pathishade svasti maam sampaaraya
The free translation of the meditative verse is Having a strung bow and arrow, also holding a
chisel and deer, seated on the bull, and hugged by Devi Annapoorna, I seek refuge in the
pathishadrudraa.
The translation of the mantra would be- I bow to the lord pathishadrudraa, let him protect me on
the way and lead me to my destination successfully and peacefully.
The idea of travel was difficult in the earlier days; the dangers in travel were innumerable likethick forest without any defined way, wild animals (lion, tiger elephant etc), dacoits, and foreign
people; to cross oceans the only mode was a ship which had more factors of danger in it and
finally unknown diseases. Hence less people travelled by foot, cart or in a ship. They also
prayed for a happy and successful travel to the Lord. Even now the situation has not changed
much, with terrorist attacks and risk in sky travel, chanting of this mantra still holds good.
The bow and arrows are said to represent the senses and the mind, thus the image of a strung
bow and arrow reminds us of alertness to any situation. The chisel represents the finer shaping

85

of ideas like the beautiful shape idol creation and holding the deer to restrain of the ever restless
mind. The bull is said to be the personification dharma devata, hence to adhere to ones dharma
is indicated. The Devi who hugs the Lord is Annapoorneshvari. She represents the annamaya
kosha, the gross body. Thus the deity to protect on the way is held closely by the gross body.
Summarizing, we find the alter mind, with plan on fine details, restraining the flickering mind,
adherence to ones own dharma and the safety of the gross body are granted by the Lord
Pathishdrudraa for a safe travel to reach the destination successfully.
aatta sajja dhaNurbaaNa TankaiNam = Having a strung bow and arrow, with a chisel and
deer. These are allegories of an alert mind with no wandering and finer planning. These will lead
to a peaceful journey and reach the destination safely. The same idea is svasti peaceful
mind and sampaaraya reaching the destination safely in the mantra
vRUshabha sthitam= the Bull is the Lord of dharma and hence the Pranava mantra is
elucidated Om
AnnapoorNaa samaslishtam= Hugged by Devi Annapoorna, - will signify the annamaya
kosham , explicitly will point to maam
pathishdrudram= Lord Pathishadrudra, the mantra says rudraaya pathishade
aashraye= I take refuge in him. The mantra will say namo I bow to the supreme Lord.
Thinking on a higher plane of consciousness, In the journey of an aspirant to the final
destination of the realization of the Divine, the protection of the body sareeram aadyam khalu
dharma saadanam- verily the gross body is the base of all sadhana, the alertness of the mind in
all situations- Bhaskararaya says- avivecana abhava meva gyana sarvasvam- to be aware at all
times is the knowledge in action , the fine points to be enjoyed like the chiseling of a idol, and
restraining the mind not wander in unknown areas are the pointers revealed, This will ensure a
safe and successful journey to reach the divine, Thus this mantra is to be chanted daily for the
srividyopasaka to attain a state of ever immersed in Shiva hood- satatam shivatamaavesha.
Looking further the arrows are the panca tanmantras and they in turn during the ritual poojasare represented as the five M. The alertness in using the five M in the sadhana thus not
misleading us by their undisciplined use and real comfort in this sadhana is also revealed in this
mantra.

Answers by AtmAnandanAtha

1. In the last issue, you had indicated that special offerings are needed for
Naimittika pUjA. What are those? If the nithya and naimitikka pUjA are both
the same from the usage of vishEshArghyA and paddhathi perspective,
then what is the difference between the two?
Answer:
Nitya puja as told earlier is to be done in the morning and the naimittika in the evening/
night. The Kalpasutra says
ma-pacaklbhe 'pi nitya-krama-pratyavami || Parks_1.24 ||
which means even we could not procure the five m as said in their original forms, the
nitya karma should be done without fail. We can see other tantras for their substitute, by
the sutra anuktam anyato graahyam- what is not specifically said here look into other
places (tantras). The Substitue foir the first m is jaggery mixed buttermilk, tender
coconut water, Rice gruel, Cows milk kept in a copper vessel etc; for the second is the
root, esp. seen is ginger; for the third is banana the mountain variety; fourth has no
substitute since it is essentinal in all types worship, for the fifth is Saffron with sandal
paste. Now the phrase
paca-parvasu vierc || Parks_10.67 ||
will be clear. As to the use of the original five m as far as possible as ordered by the Sri
Guru, with more variety, tasty and rich food offerings, which is the fourth m.
2. Does every form of ambA , like say the dashamahAvidya have nakshatra
corresponding of each form in which that particular form was incarnated or
manifested? eg, im told Bhuvaneshwari aavirbhava day is on akshaya
trithiya, does this form of Devi also have a corresponding nakshatra on
when She was manifest?

3. It is nice that you are providing puja and avarana karmas for various
devatas. However, my Guru has not given me any of these mantras and
puja kramas. Isnt it enough to just follow what the Guru has taught? Why
do we need these ancillary puja and japa kramas?
Answer
Yes, from an initial sadhaka s perspective we need to do only what Sri Guru has taught
us. If we adamantly stick on to just mere repetitions without bhava , then sadhana will
become stagnant water like and in course of time will be septic. On the other hand if we
do a sincere intense sadhana we will find our intellect will be inspired by the great Devi
and , she will lead us to many new wonders in this Sri Vidya universe. Thus whatever
we have shared here are some of the wonders of this universe, which we have come
across, and suitably documented. May be at a later point when someone wants to know
about these, they may be guided without astray. Another traditional view is that during
Purnabhisheka the Guru gives a sarva mantra adhikaara- a total free blank cheque,
thus those who have had this good fortune also need not search many books, these
kramaras are given out here. These poojas are to be done with the strong conviction
that these deites are also Sri Devi herself. It will be like our mother (Lalithambika) in the
form of a teacher (Sarasvati), a soldier (Durga), a ruler ( Rama). Etc.
