For years, I dabbled around aimlessly on the spiritual path .
It was only when I found the tradition and path of Sri Vidya that my heart and mind finally settled Into a sadhana /spiritual practice with so much intensity that it bore great spiritual fruits of unconditional love, bliss and clarity.
When he initiated me Into the mantra, It almost felt like a seed was implanted in my third eye which would germinate, sprout and matu.
I was instructed by a guru who learnt under an adept Sri Vidya practitioner .
It is always best to get initiated by a guru who has got the siddhi(perfection )of the mantra and is associated with a traditional Sri Vidya lineage .
Having said that, many monks also practice Sri Vidya but the intensity and way of worship is slightly different .
Thus, the worship of Man Tripura Sundari is great for householders.
The love of Ma Kali, Ma Tara and other fierce forms of Divine mother has its own sweetness and flavour but for a householder who is entangled in his worldly responsibilities and attachments, their ways can be overwhelming sometimes .
Ma Tripura Sundari is a very gentle and extremely loving deity but can be fierce too in helping you confront your shortcomings and layers of ignorance.
She will fulfil all your desires; both spiritual and material but it is best to invoke her for spiritual liberation .
This whole world of illusory images is her creation and by surrendering at her lotus feet, she will ferry you across the ocean of samsara Into a state of transcendental bliss where all sense of separation dissolves and this world of suffering is seen as the most beautiful dance of life .
Divine mother/Kundalini automatically by her Grace takes you to the state of total spiritual emancipation.
To receive love, one has to first embody and share it because we become love incarnate when we strip away the layers of illusion .
Wanting unconditional love is the biggest condition .
True detachment is a total blossoming of love and total involvement without any expectation .
It was only when I connected with the Divine feminine that I could express and receive love, develop true compassion and gentleness in my otherwise detached and indifferent persona.
I always felt that there was no juice of devotion in my spiritual practice .
Whenever I think of Sri Lalita Maha Tripura Sundari (The blissful Divine mother of the cosmos)my heart melts like butter placed on a hot stove and my eyes brim and overflow with tears of devotion and gratitude .
For years, I dabbled around aimlessly on the spiritual path .
It was only when I found the tradition and path of Sri Vidya that my heart and mind finally settled Into a sadhana /spiritual practice with so much intensity that it bore great spiritual fruits of unconditional love, bliss and clarity
