Namaste Tripuraghna ji. Many thanks for your explanation. The word Army reminded me of a scene in a dream. I got to know of Maa Pratyangira 4-5 years back. Out of excitement I prayed to Her before going to sleep. Saw Her marching very fast in a battlefield with Her army. Understood what you wanted to convey. Reading your posts here, feels like Maa Raj Shyamala herself is narrating.

Namaste Swati. I will transcribe a fragment from the Lalitopakhyana which I believe is the best solution for you. Many people who read it will relate. This is applicable to other deities: "67-70. If a person endowed with devotion worships the deity continuously without any desire (in return for worship), if he repeats the Mantra to his fullest capacity meditating upon her, she herself shall bear the burden of his weal in this world and accomplish liberation for him. Always staying near him, she will tell him everything. Just as the lowing cow follows the calf so also the goddess shall follow her devotee who has sought refuge in her. 72-74 If a man places his burden on Śrīdevatā, the burden of responsibilities etc. of this world as well as that of the other world and concentrates his mind always on her, if he is favorably disposed towards all everywhere, if he is devoid of antagonists , if without having any one else as his refuge, he prays to Gaurī exclusively stead-fastly to protect him, if he has the confidence that she will protect him, if his aim and purpose is solely her service and if he is eager to serve and worship her that activity is Śaraṇāgati (seeking refuge). 75. If at any time people praise him or censure him, the man who has sought refuge in the deity thinks like this—“Let the worlds censure or let the people praise”. After thinking thus and after observing his own form with good intellect, he ceases to experience pleasure or sorrow. 76-77. Śaraṇāgati consists of six aspects thinking about favorable things, avoiding unfavourable things; faith that (the deity) will protect, requesting the deity for protection, surrendering his own self and Kāruṇya (Piteousness or seeking compassion). After surrendering oneself one should dedicate the five Aṅgas (all the five actions of the body). There is no other means like this to achieve worldly enjoyment as well as liberation from Saṃsāra. 78-81. The following qualities are meant for the attainment of perfect knowledge. The devotee shall always practice them—absence of pride, absence of hypocrisy, avoidance of violence, forbearance, straight-forwardness, cleanliness, steadiness, self-control, non-attachment to the objects of senses, absence of egotism, careful observation of the evils of birth, death, old age, ailments and misery, absence of attachment, continuous even-mindedness irrespective of the desirable or undesirable happening or occurrence, unswerving devotion to the deity, without thinking of other things. 82-83. He who works for the deity, he who has her dela for his dela goal, who is devoted to her, who avoids attachment and who bears no enmity to any living being attains the greatest Śrī." (Lalitopakhyana)

Thank you very much for your reply! Could you please tell me if it is possible to recite Lalita Sahasranama instead of Bala Sahasranama, since Bala is the child form of Lalita? All the names of Lalita Sahasranama are explained and described in detail, but the names of Bala Sahasranama are not. Perhaps you know where one can find the names of Bala Tripura Sundari as well described? Please tell us more about Jīvā Karuṇai. Does it mean not to do to others what you do not want done to you? Because the Jīvātmā, the real Self of every living being, manifests itself as the whole world, and by causing suffering to someone we harm ourselves? Can you please tell me whether it is possible to repeat the Bala Tripura Sundari mantra as described by Tivra Ji, or can you supplement this method or is it completely sufficient? For example, what is meant by "Confident in this, the devotee should enter the state of Dhyana"? True Knowledge, that which is confirmed by two wise men. This is what Tivra Ji has said: Namaste Krishna. What I mentioned are really uddhāra ślokas. Decoding them, one arrives at the Mantra of Tripura Bhairavi which I will tell you: The Dīpanī for Vāgbhava is "hstraim̐ aim̐"; The Dīpanī for Kāmarāja is "hsklrīm̐ klīm̐"; The Dīpanī for Parā is "hstraum̐ḥ sauḥ". The complete formula that must be recited 100 times is the Mantra "hstraim̐ aim̐ hsklrīm̐ klīm̐ hstraum̐ḥ sauḥ". Additionally, the devotee can further increase the strength of the Bālā Mantra by invoking Icchā, Jñāna, Kriyā Śaktis of Lalitā, reciting 100 times the Mantra "aim̐ vada vada vāgvādini aim̐" (meditate on the tongue of Lalitā) | klīm̐ klinne kledini kledaya kledaya mahā kṣobham̐ kuru kuru klīm̐ (meditate on Lalitā's breasts) | sauḥ mōkṣam̐ kuru kuru sauḥ (meditate on the Yoni of Lalitā) | hsaum̐ḥ shauḥm̐ namaḥ (meditate on the two feet of the Guru, the one who authorizes liberation) || The resulting Mantra is "aim̐ vada vada vāgvādini aim̐ | klīm̐ klinne kledini kledaya kledaya mahā kṣobham̐ kuru kuru klīm̐ | sauḥ mōkṣam̐ kuru kuru sauḥ | hsaum̐ḥ shauḥm̐ namaḥ || Having done all this, the sincere devotee should meditate on the fact that Bālā is Lalitā's own strength, identical in all aspects of strength. Confident of this the devotee should enter the state of Dhyana and recite the Bālā Mantra "aim̐ klīm̐ sauḥ" 10,000 (ten thousand) times in 2 hours every day (mentally). You will be able to do this if you are in Dhyana and Mantra free from curses. For that devotee who performs this procedure, nothing becomes impossible to do. All difficult things seem like child's play to him, even the terrible ones. Then Bālā becomes the vehicle by which the devotee plays and travels in the mysteries of all the Amnayas and masters them completely, and in the end he reaches and plays in his Mother's abode in the Anuttaramnaya. Just as Bālā surprised all those present in the great war, the devotee will surprise all the sages because although she has the appearance of a child, she is fully capable of all things like Lalitā herself, her Mother. Thank you very much for your deep knowledge! Also, I am very grateful to Ravi Ji and Krishna for creating and maintaining this website, where enlightened great souls visit from time to time and share unselfishly the spiritual knowledge that in the past could only be obtained after many years of service to their Gurudev. In this way, your website is like an Ashram, where the darkness of ignorance is dispelled and the Divine Mother herself speaks through such enlightened people.

Namaste Mnx. I will clarify these matters for you in a different way. I will say some things for you to meditate on. First thing you should meditate on is the story of Prahlada's devotion that made Lord Vishnu assume the fierce form of Narasimha. Meditate on why Vishnu assumed the form of Narasimha without Prahlada needing to ask for it or knowing that such a form existed. Second thing you should mediate is about the functionality of "Kavacham", "Hridayam", "108 Names" and "1008 Names" of a Goddess or God. Have you ever wondered why the Sahasranama of one Mahavidya have names of other Mahavidyas? Meditate on the following facts: The "Hridayam" of a deity functions as a "friend; the "108 Names" of a deity functions as "bodyguards"; the "1008 Names" of a deity functions as an "Army!" Meditating on all that I said you will be able to understand.

Namaste Tripuraghnaji. Let me first thank you on behalf of all manblunder followers for the priceless knowledge that we are all grasping from you. I have heard that Divine Mother Pratyangira's authentic sahasranama is kept very secret by the sadhakas. Is it true in your opinion and if yes, could you please share some of her most important names as you did for Divine Mother Guhya Kali with us, along with your engaging commentary? I would be very grateful to you for this. It is my heartfelt desire to gain access to the entire sahasranama but I feel that would be too much to ask for, except if you are willing to reveal by Divine Mother's grace. I know a lot of devotees here are seeking lots of clarifications from you regarding their loved deities. But the thing is that sadhakas like you are like finding water in the desert. No one wants to lose the opportunity of seeking help from such a blessed being. Thank you again Tripuraghnaji on behalf of everyone. Regards and prostrations.

Namaste Tripuragna ji. Many thanks for sharing exceptional 64 names of Maa Guhyakali for Maa Durga. Some days back I came across an interesting work on- Kali Kula Srividya. Where Maa Kaaleshwari with Mahakaal are presiding deities. Their children are Rakta Ganapati, Daatansh & BhootBala. Various Bhairav & Bhairavi are part of Her World. No pics but only some details were given. According to this, both Tripurasundari & Kaaleshwari were created by Maa Bagala.They are twin sisters. Two sides of a coin. Knowledge was claimed to be from higher sources. Please guide us on above matter. To best of what I know- Maa Lalita & Kaamakalakali, with Srikula & Kalikula, their Maha & Para vidyas are followed by sadhakas.

Namaste Tripuraghnaji, Pranaam. What a gentle soul you are and what a divine blessing for me to recieve these. I will dedicate them to your feet and ask you to pray for me to ask ma to guide me. To me the most dangerous thing happened in my life 8 yrs back when my 4yr old son was taken away by my ex husband without my knowledge leaving me homeless. i have not met my son since 6 yrs now and just waiting for my life to turn where I can see the end of tunnel and see this light, start a new life. At this moment, I also just lost my job and not sure what I need to do. Surrendered to Ma.

Have you read this article https://www.kamakotimandali.com/2021/03/28/musings-on-para%E1%B9%A3o%E1%B8%8Dasi/ Are you saying MahaSodashi is same as ParaSodashi or ParaSodashi is Lakshmi/MahaLakshmi and GuhyaKali is Saraswati/MahaSaraswati. There seems to be so many views looks like.

Krishnaji is this the right mantra or the one above posted in the article? Thank you

In Pratayanghira yantra you have mentioned the directions of devas and Sri puja as opposite to each other. Can you explain more.
