Namaskaram. I am not initiated to this but I wish to worship Sampatkari Devi. Am I allowed to chant ॐ श्री सम्पत्करी देव्यै नमो नमः ? It is an approved 'nama' japa of Sri Sampatkari Devi?

Namaste PN, something important that I forgot to mention is that Siddhi Lakshmi plays in Kali Kula and Shri Kula. Rajyasiddhi Lakshmi is her playing at Shri Kula. Purna Chandi is Siddhi Lakshmi playing in the Kali Kula. I explained about Shri Kula's Siddhi Lakshmi, while the other advanced devotees talked about Purna Chandi. Kali and Shodashi play with each other. The beautiful Shodashi sometimes shows an aggressiveness as frightening as Kali and bursts into laughter, laughing at the devotee's surprise. The terrible Kali sometimes shows mercy and forgiveness as immense as Shodashi's, and also laughs at the surprised devotee. They are the same thing and they are playing with the devotee. They are a crazy girl driving us all crazy. But there is perfection in this madness, and an uplifting purpose.

In the nama 150, does Avadhya means incapable of being transgressed or dishonored? In that case, its negation of Nir + Avadhya would mean susceptible to dishonor. Could anyone kindly clarify my doubt?

Pranaams to Krishnaji & everyone here. Thank you so much for all your answers. ALthough I have read through each comment, I will have to read & re- read them again, to try and comprehend the meaning of it all. I am so glad I asked the questions. I got answers more than I had hoped for. Thank you so much. And indeed @Surya ji, Tantra is complicated. I was/am too a Krishna Bhakti Worshipper. But then I discovered this site and I found Maa Pratyangira and my journey changed. I can't explain why or how, it was almost overnight and so many of the things that I thought or imagined as to what would be the attributes of Maa were exactly confirmed by some of Maa's advanced sadhakas in their various comments. I am so thankful and ever so grateful to all those divine people' who run this site. I cannot thank you enough. May Maa Pratyangira bless you all!

This has become very common and many are suffering due to the distractions and irresponsible behavior of children as well as the entitlement that we have provided to them. My suggestion is to take him to a Psychologist for therapy sessions. They can be good career guides and advise best on how to proceed from a practical perspective. In addition to this, I would suggest that you consider energizing a rudrākṣa mālā and offer it to your son. It will take some time to show its effects but your son will definitely become more responsible.

I could not follow your question. We have provided the entire pūja of Śrī Ucchiṣṭa Gaṇapati in this article and if you are requesting the same for Lord Hanumān including His upāsana, then it would be posted in the years ahead. Nothing is planned at this time.

I was leaving the comments section open for queries directed to the venerable master Shri Jothi. I see that this question has been answered adequately by the sincere sādhakas and regular patrons of this site. My heartfelt thanks to everyone for taking the initiative to answer and dig back into the wealth of comments that we have on this site and sharing the same with other aspirants. I have nothing more to add to the answers already provided. The masters have shown us the path and we need to absorb and follow it to the fullest extent possible.

I will try to answer your question: Moola Pratyangira is Siddhilakshmi. She is called this because she emenated for the first time the form of Pratyangirā (moola means root, siddhi Lakshmi is the “root” of Pratyagirā). But isn’t the energy of Pratyangira primordial and omnipresent with the universe and beyond it? Yes definitely, it s none less than Adi Parāśakti herself, however the form of Pratyangira we most recognize emerged with a purpose, as all forms of the emanations of Divine Mother do. See, Siddhilakshmi is none other than Guhyakālī. She is an aspect of her with specific interests and past times. Some say the full Guhyakālī is the dark side of Lalitāmbikā, and Guhyakālī is no different than Lalitāmbikā, and She is beyond the Brahman. Within the manifested reality, saguna Brahman, there are two queens (two sides of a single coin) who love each other very dearly and are always dialoguing about running the universes. They are Lalitā Mahātripura Sundarī and Kāmakalā Kālī. These two forms are not the most esoteric forms of divine mother, but they are her imperial regent forms, and the solely have the power to rule as absolute monarchs. Their wishes and desires and directives are immediately and totally carried out by their numerous ministers and aides found in their cakras and composing the queens themselves (some of whom are actually more esoteric and “fundamental” which is very interesting but perfectly logical). When Narasimha became fully enraged and desired to eradicate the tamo guna, a form had to be created to subdue his ego (if the tamo guna is eradicated, manifested creation would’ve ceased wherever that occurred) . So now there is a necessity for a new form, but one of the rulers, one of the two queens, must order it. Kāmakalā Kālī (Rakta form of Guhyakālī aka Kāmakalā Kālī-Guhyakālī) gave the order to Guhyakālī in her aspect of Siddhilakshmi to complete the task of dreaming up and generating a form so great and terrible that it would instantly humble Narasimha at his most ferocious. Siddhilakshmi carried out the task and put the primordial energy we now call as Mahāpratyangira into the shape of this agonizingly immense and maximally ferocious thousand headed Pratyangira, who’s appearance immediately cowers and humbles all else. She is pure dharma and creative energy, the absolute upholder of divine law and balance, and she inherits her nature from none other than Guhyakālī, although it seems to be even more sharpened and pronounced in the Pratyangira forms. I’ve learned all this only from the advanced sadhakas who have been able to share this knowledge publicly here through the immense efforts and grace of Śrī Vaidyanath Ravi and his disciples. om aiṁ hrīṁ śrīṁ lalitāmbikāyai namaḥ ||

Dear PN. I know Tantra is complicated, that's why many people simply choose Bhakti Yoga, just like Kṛṣṇa worshippers. But the Divine Mother did not leave anyone helpless. There are paths for all tastes.

Namaste, please read the comments on these questions from experienced sadhakas who know what they are talking about. Tivra: - 1.) "I will tell the exact origin of Mahā Pratyaṅgirā. This form of the Divine Mother arose from Guhya Kāli. Divine Mother Guhya Kāli has her abode beyond the Parabrahman and no one knows her true and most powerful form. Nobody knows where Guhya Kāli came from. She was simply already there beyond the Parabrahman. She is the Divine Mother of secrets that can break all rules. The devotee of Guhya Kāli can ask for the secret to reach any goal to be revealed, there is no limit to what he can ask for, however absurd it may be. From Guhya Kāli there will always arise a form that no one has ever seen before, but never for nothing, there will always be a reason. Mahā Pratyaṅgirā emerged from Guhya Kāli to restore the Sattva between Śarabha and Gaṇḍabheruṇḍa and protect the balance and functioning of the universes. After solving this problem, Mahā Pratyaṅgirā remains accessible to this day as the most drastic solution to restore Sattva when necessary. For the time being, there is no deity more aggressive than Mahā Pratyaṅgirā, but there will certainly be a more aggressive one if necessary. The deity responsible for giving rise to these unprecedented forms is Guhya Kāli. It was Lalitāmbika who asked Kāmakalā Kāli to give the order to Guhya Kāli to create Mahā Pratyaṅgirā. Lalitāmbika and Kāmakalā Kāli are two queens who constantly dialogue to deal with the needs of governing the universe. They are two sisters who love each other very much. Those who conspire against Lalitāmbika will know the fury of Kāmakalā Kāli and Mahā Pratyaṅgirā. These two love Lalitāmbika very much. If all means are insufficient, Guhya Kāli is called upon to reveal the secret to solving anything and breaking all rules. Despite the indefinite power of Guhya Kāli and the tremendous aggressiveness of Mahā Pratyaṅgirā, both are under the rule of Lalitāmbika and Kāmakalā Kāli. It's not about who is more powerful, it's about organization. All are the same Devi. Thus I revealed for the first time the true origin of Mahā Pratyaṅgirā, as the fruit of merit." 2.) "Mahā Pratyaṅgirā is in the 1000 names of Lalitā. She is in the name "mahā-bhairava-pūjita (231)". She is especially revered by Lord Mahā Bhairava, but he is not her consort. Mahā Pratyaṅgirā is something far beyond what we can imagine and she has no consort. Many say she has a consort, but she doesn't, no one is qualified to be her consort. The scriptures say that when Mahā Pratyaṅgirā becomes angry, even the Parabrahman cannot calm her down. The only thing that calms her down is truth and justice and she can't be stopped until those things are done. The scriptures say that she is willing to stop even Mahā Pralaya to save her sincere devotees. They further say that the devotee who has completely united with her is equivalent to Parabrahman in omnipotence, is a Yogi equivalent to crores of Lords Śiva and stable as crores of Lords Viṣṇu. I am not a devotee of Pratyaṅgirā, but whenever I have worshiped her in an emergency, she has never failed. And she's quick as lightning taking everything in front of her. So she is in the 1000 names of Lalitā." 3.) "This is the most powerful Mantra published on this website. There's no doubt about that. The Mahāṣodaśī Mantra (mastered) is used to unlock the Śrī Navākṣari Siddhilakṣmī Mantra. Divine Mother Siddhilakṣmī is Guhyakāli. This is a Guhyakāli Mantra. Divine Mother Siddhilakṣmī is also called Mūla Pratyaṅgirā. But why? Because she is the root/origin/cause (Mūla) of Pratyaṅgirā. The devotee who has mastered the Siddhilakṣmī Mantra enters into a romantic relationship with the Universe. He attracts inexhaustible wealth, in all its forms. He cannot stop attracting infinite wealth (Lakṣmī) because whatever he does will be perfect (Siddhi). All forms of wealth are born of some perfection. If everything you do is perfect (Siddhi), you will inevitably attract unlimited wealth (Lakṣmī) anywhere in the Universe. Why does the devotee enter into a romantic relationship with the Universe? Because he enjoys the unlimited wealth of the Divine Mother at all times. Divine Mother's creativity is infinite, so that devotee enjoys pleasure forever. Today is not like yesterday, tomorrow will not be like today, but that devotee will always be perfect in whatever he does at all times. He will be a king wherever he is. He will not be able to stop attracting wealth, no matter where he is in the universe. He becomes the very essence of Śakti. This delightful release which only Siddhilakṣmī can give is one of the most coveted by Siddhas. It is difficult to say who Guhyakāli is. The essence of Guhyakāli is to remain secret forever. Once Rāvaṇa asked Guhyakāli to give him the power not to be killed by any force. Guhyakāli started laughing and said that even she would not escape changing and that this is impossible to grant to any being. A mysterious answer." Tripuraghna: - 1.) "It is a little-known fact that Lord Rama's Kula Devata is Divine Mother Guhyakālī. But wouldn't it be the Divine Mother Durgā? The answer to this question is that the complete form of Durgā is Guhyakālī. How can I prove this to the readers of this site? The incomplete form of Durgā is called Caṇḍī and the Navārṇa Mantra. The complete form of Durgā is called Pūrṇacaṇḍī. Who is Pūrṇacaṇḍī? Divine Mother Pūrṇacaṇḍī is called Siddhilakṣmī with the Navākṣarī Mahāvidyā: om̐ hrīm̐ hūm̐ hām̐ phrem̐ kṣrom̐ krom̐ namaḥ. Who is Siddhilakṣmī? She is also called Mūlapratyaṅgirā. Who is Mūlapratyaṅgirā? Divine Mother Mūlapratyaṅgirā is called Mahācaṇḍayogeśvari. But who is Mahācaṇḍayogeśvari? She is Bhagavati Guhyakālī herself. Divine Mother Tripurasundari Parābhaṭṭārikā is also present in Siddhilakṣmī. Divine Mother Siddhilakṣmī is the meeting point and combination of the powers of Guhyakālī, Durgā, Pratyaṅgirā and Tripurasundari. She is very terrible but hides it. Divine Mother Durgā is a very frequent subject among Guhyakālī devotees. The power set in motion with Śrī Siddhakuñjikā Stotram is Guhyakālī. Divine Mother Durgā carries the power of Guhyakālī secretly with her, even in forms that raise no suspicion of it. Divine Mother Devi is difficult to understand, but I tried my best to try to explain it in words."
