Namaste Tripuraghna Ji, Just for knowledge purposes, may i request you to share your valuable insights on my queries to quench my curiosity about Maa. 1. How are Maa Kamakala Kali and Maa Guhya Kali related. According to Mahakaal Samhita they said that they are one and same, just the dhyana form, mantra, etc are different. 2. How are Maa Kamakala Kali and Maa Guhyakali related ? 3. In Mahakal Samhita, Maa Kamakala Kali mentions to Shiva that among all the fierce forms of her, Kamakala Kali is the fiercest, they why did she, as Guhyakali, give rise to Maa Pratyangira ? 4. You have addressed a lot of very rare Vidyas, could you tell us something about Maa Kubjika ? And her relation to Maa Pratyankira as Roudra-Kubjika-Atharvana-Bhadrakali ? 5. This is a personal query, and since my Shri Guru is in higher realms, I am asking this to you. I haven't found my Ishta yet and I believe I am still on the journey. but i feel it will either be Maa Lalitambika as Saubhagya Sundari or Raja-Shayamala. Nowadays, whenever I try to pray, I can only see someone (who looks like Maa Shyamala) but curiously she has 10 hands with weapons and Veena. And she is extremely beautiful, graceful, attractive, blissful and a vivid shade of electric blue (not emerald green how Shyamala and her anga vidyas generally are). Any thoughts ?

I cannot express how much over-whelmed I am after reading Tripuraghna Ji's answers. And this also proves why we need higher order sadhakas like Tripuraghna Ji and Krishna Ji to guide the rest of us with their experience. I will totally echo what Tripuraghna Ji said, that Pratyangira should always be the last resort and once you invoke her, you should be able to bear the consequences. I had prayed to Maa Pratyangira to bring me justice. No mantra, no Stavraaj, just a simple, genuine heartfelt request out of extreme sadness to bring me justice. What I didn't know that someone I love was involved, and would go on to face the heat through both physical injury and their respect was tarnished. And for days I couldn't look at myself because I felt those 2 mishaps in their life was a consequence of me being drastic and calling Maa Pratyangira. And as a result directly or indirectly I hurt someone I love, and that was never my intention. So yes, we are humans, with our human expectations and human attachment. Maa Pratyangira is above these trivials and lives in absolute truth and justice. Not all human souls can handle and survive this much clarity. Atleast I couldn't.

Thank you very much for your answer! Earlier you said: "...First I will tell you a secret about Kāmakalākāḻī and Lalitā. During the Day, Śrīdevī is Tripura Sundarī. During the Night, Śrīdevī is Kāmakalākāḻī...." In the Lalitopākhyānam, Mantriṇī and Daṇḍanāthā said: किं भर्तृदारिके युद्धे व्यवसायः कृतस्त्वया । अकाण्डे किं महाराज्ञ्या प्रेषितासि रणं प्रति ॥३,२६.९१॥ kiṃ bhartṛdārike yuddhe vyavasāyaḥ kṛtastvayā । akāṇḍe kiṃ mahārājñyā preṣitāsi raṇaṃ prati ॥3,26.91॥ "Why, O princess, have you actively engaged yourself in battle? Why are you suddenly despatched to the war front by the great queen herself?" तदेतदुचितंनैव वर्तमानेऽपि सैनिके । त्वं मूर्तं जीवितमसि श्रीदेव्या बालिके यतः ॥३,२६.९२॥ tadetaducitaṃnaiva vartamāne'pi sainike । tvaṃ mūrtaṃ jīvitamasi śrīdevyā bālike yataḥ ॥3,26.92॥ "When the soldiers are present and ready, this is not proper. Since you, O girl, are the personified life of Śrīdevī, recede from your enthusiastic participation in war. We are making obeisance to you." Question: Does this mean that Bālā Tripura Sundarī is the personified life not only of Lalitā (Śrīdevī) but also of Kāmakalākāḻī, since She is Śrīdevī at night? Is Lalitā and Kāmakalākāṁ and Bālā (who is the very personified life absolutely indistinguishable from Śrīdevī) actually one Great Goddess (Śrīdevī) who manifests in different forms depending on the time, place and divine play (Līlā) that She wants to manifest? Are Lalitā, Kāmakalākāḻī and Bālā actually one, is it one Goddess who manifests in different forms? Are all the countless universes actually the Great Game of the Divine Mother from which She enjoys? Is this true, thank you for your answer!

Namaste Tripuraghnaji. Thanks a lot for making us understand these facts. Please explain about Maa GuhyaShodashi, if possible. Thanks in advance.

incredible! thank you so much for sharing.

Mahapratyangira, Mahaguhyakali, Mahashodashi ,- NirvanaChandika, NirvanaKali, NirvanaSundari - seems to be the epitome of triad of Shiva-Iccha, Shakti-Vidya-jnana, Yukta-Atmatatva-Kriya is that right Tripuraghnaji.. can you elucidate more on this and Maharajni, ShriMatre?

For this mantra it proved elusive to find a guru around me, so I followed the self-initiation procedures described here: https://www.manblunder.com/articlesview/self-initiation-of-mantras. I went on trayodashi to the inner part of a rajagopuram which had Dakshinamurthy facing Tripura Sundari, along with other murtis of devas and rishis, and I recited a mantra to Dakshinamurthy 108 times, imagined him as the guru and worshipped at his feet then I wrote this mantra (I appended two of the ātma bījās of my name at the beginning to augment this mantra to 12 syllables due to a previous/ongoing Kāmakalā Kālī Sadhana, but the practice is risky and unclear so proceed with caution if you choose to calculate your ātma bijas, which you can derive by searching “ātma bījā manblunder”) in Latin script and Sanskrit, and then I recited it aloud nine times and mentally nine times. I then proceeded to the navagraha array at this temple, lit a small lamp in front of Rahu, and circumambulated while reciting 18 times. This may seem like many steps but it’s actually pretty quick, and in the absence of a human guru for this mantra Sadhana, I tried to creatively enhance the plausibility that I would have success. There is an all-curse removing/ kīlakam-providing stotra (there are two iirc) on manblunder. You may search for that and recite it as well, as this may greatly facilitate any and all of your mantra Japa results. Best of luck my friend ॐ ह्रीं नमः शिवाय

In the past, when I worshiped Maa Guhya, my most impressive material experience with her was a bolt of lightning coming out of nowhere and hitting a person who wasn't leaving me alone. The lightning hit the person, but did not cause a scratch on her. Maa Guhya just wanted to scare this person and not hurt. This all happened in front of both of us. She said she didn't feel any pain, but that she was scared. So I calmed her down. On this day I better understood Maa Guhya's unpredictable nature.

Maa Guhya is like a hidden dot that connects all other dots in existence. It can give you a complete and extremely detailed description of the universes even before they burst into existence. She is a "mad scientist". She is hidden everywhere and it is impossible to find her. When she wants to communicate with a devotee she takes on different forms which are not her at all. She's the one doing the work behind the scenes but nobody sees. Maa Guhya is the guarantee that everything that is good can become better, and that everything that is bad can become worse, and that everything that is indescribable can become more indescribable, perpetually. Her basic Mantra is "phrem". This Mantra itself is a great mystery. It means something coming from somewhere unknown, but it's always something different that comes from there. She is closely linked to Lalitambika. The essence of beauty is in what is always unknown, in what cannot be fully known. She's like the epitome of beauty, but implicit. She is known as Shakti Pranava.

Namaste. Your statement is correct. They are manifestations of the same Mahāśakti. Atharvaṇa Bhadrakāḻi is Mahā Pratyaṅgirā. Grace Siddhi is the perfection bestowed by Graceśakti who is Mahāśakti. Grace Siddhi is the perfection attained by those who have become so pure and full of light that it is impossible for him to have enemies. They have become so pure and full of light that they become more and more powerful continuously and perpetually. Just as the supreme personality of God is unattainable because it is continually growing, these perfect souls are endowed with unattainable power because they have become the biune form of that God. They have given up everything and don't need to practice anything else. Even if they don't practice anything, they have already become Grace itself and become more and more powerful automatically. They grow more and more perpetually. Grace Siddhi is when God decides, of his own free will, to become the biune form of a specific soul. This is a gift that is received by those who have become so pure in heart that God simply gives himself to them. Only these souls can declare themselves perfect. They have surpassed all concepts of justice and are above justice itself. Only these souls have the highest respect from Mahā Pratyaṅgirā. Divine Mother Mahā Pratyaṅgirā can discipline all the great souls in this universe, except those who have Grace Siddhi, because they have become the example to be followed by the entire universe. You will receive Grace Siddhi when your heart becomes the example that all universes should follow. Then you will receive this gift and become the biune body of God. Great Sages who received this gift were Vallalar and Thirumoolar.
