Thank you Sir for the reply. And sorry, I have one more doubt. Can I eat non veg food at night after reciting Lalitha Sahasranama Sthotram? Could you please clarify this as well?

Trika philosophy is explained through the triad of parā the highest concerned with identity, parāpara - identity in difference and aparā - difference and sense of difference. The life force of Śakti as Pratyaṅgirā, animates all the deities and allows them to perform their duties. Thus, the association and the various forms and mantras of Her.

No. 11 is the meaning of the above mantra. It is extolling the capability of the māla and its ability to navigate through the maze of the cosmic virtuality to manifest the benefits of the caturvarga [the four puruṣārthas - dharma (righteousness), artha (wealth), kāma (desires), mokṣa (spiritual emancipation)] and also in allowing the fruition of the recited japa mantra.

Humble Pranaams Krishnaji & to everyone here! Just came across this reference of ParaPara Shakti for the first time. What is the difference between ParaPara Shakti and Para Shakti? Also, since there are different swaroopams of Pratyangira, some say that Pratyangira Swaroop is attached to every major Deity, would that mean that Pratyangira is part of every being whether celestial or earth bound? Could that mean that she is inherent in everything & everyone and connected to aatmashakti itself? I understand that showing serpents on gods is to show kundalini, and Maa is named Nagayajnopavita & Mahakundalini, but what is the significance of the 8 serpents said to be on Maa Pratyangira's body? Why the number 8 and what does it signify?

Namaste sir, regarding the mala mantra ( oṃ māṃ māle mahāmāye sarvamantra svarūpiṇi। caturvarga stvayinyasta stasmānye siddhidā bhava॥) that we find in almost all japa vidhi in this site, could you please explain the meaning of it, especially those long words that I could find the meaning anywhere (could they be compound words.). Thank you.

You can use a Rudrākṣa māla of any number of beads and faces for wearing purposes. The benefits and the process of energizing the beads is described in the Rudrākṣa category on this website - https://manblunder.com/articles/rudrakshatearsofrudra. For mantra japa purposes, the japamālā mantra is different as described in various mantra articles on this website and elsewhere. However, for wearing purposes, the mantras for energizing them are different. We should not be using the same māla(s) for both wearing and mantra japa. Keep them separate. You can get a 108 + 1 Rudrākṣa māla and perform mantra japa with it. Once the mantra japa is complete, you should place it back in a māla bag and store in a dry and secure place. For wearing purposes, if a 6 face (mukhi) bead suits you the most, you may purchase 1 bead or a set of beads per your liking of any origin (Nepal or Indonesian or Papua or Australian or Hawaaian/American or Indian Rudrākṣa or Bhadrākṣa) etc. and wear it after energizing with the Purāṇic or the Tantric mantras that work best for you. In my case, I have an Indonesian 1-14 sarva siddhi māla that I energized with the tantric mantras and gave a couple of mālas to friends and family and also wear one myself. From an effects standpoint, it is too early to say, but I have had some peace of mind and resolution of some long standing issues in the last 2-3 weeks. It has only been 3 weeks since I energized the mālas. For me the 7 and 8, as well as the 14 face Rudrākṣas have been very effective and I witnessed some amount of auspiciousness and relief from worries. The 1 mukhi caused a lot of hindrances.

It is best to meditate upon the nāmas and their meaning. You can take up one or a set of attributes and contemplate on their meanings. The next day you can choose another set and so on. This will lead to a better understanding and appreciation of the Sahasranāmas vs. a recitation of the entire stotram, which in itself is a mālā mantra and requires an initiation and has pre-requisites.
