Oddly enough, but it's taken me a couple years to understand that this is wholly the truth. Various gurus say Mahashodashi is the greatest. I just think they're more explicit in nature. I personally think that if a sincere devotee masters panchadashi or laghu shodashi with Rajamatangi and Mahavarahi, he/she will acheive a fuller spectrum of Lalitambika's darshana than anyone doing Mahashodashi.

Namaste Dear Prince. Thank you for the wonderful shares! I will create separate posts and will do my best to translate the stotras and publish the Āvaraṇa Pūjas as well. It may take some time, but I will certainly publish the Khaḍgamālās and Ṣoḍhā nyāsas as well. All of these are getting added to my to do list!

dear all, finally i want everyone here just to know one formula that is too often not understood. For example, i make a post: "hey guys, there is mulabija of Kali - krīm. It makes the sadhaka healthy, happy and full of power!!" - and you, dear reader, have thus the first meeting with bija krīm. SO that means for you personally that krīm is not just Kali, but Kali*Amargi. And if Amargi is 0, then for you krīm=Kali*0=0. Futile. Then, if a Guru gives you the same krīm bija, then it may look like, T=108, krīm=Kali*T=108Kali. This is what i want dear Manblunder sadhakas to realise; that's the only purpose why i started writing here my comments. Now i feel i have done the best of mine; thank you all all all, thank you great Shiva who takes the form of Guru out of love to each of us!

Attached here is the Anubhūtasiddhasārasvatastavaḥ. Young students and scholars may use this for the improvement of their school and college studies, and the overall betterment of their intelligence. A mula mantra is also prescribed in the phalastruti, which contains the Hadi-vagbhava kuta. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KpG4fASnjP7k3l3h6ULPvEcHwxcN_croWjWiee8Jgh0/edit?usp=sharing

dear nashmkm, since you ask me directly on Siddha Kuñjika stotram, i must tell you that in my Parampara it is clearly stated that this stotram is an anga of Durga Herself, and practicing it without other angas and Saptashati itself is not good. Still, there are cases of direct Guru's approval of practicing the stotra and mantra only, or even the mantra only; this all depends on the Goddess' Will provided through Her medium. Feel the sense of it: it is all about your own relations with the Goddess and about who gives you the Knowledge. It is a magic mystery that you may feel, it is your intellect that chooses the best you can afford, and it is your effort to follow the upadesha of the one you accepted as your true Teacher. i remember there was a story about a man who appealed to Drona to study archery, but Drona refused; that man made a murti of Drona and learned archery under subtle guidance of Drona through the murti, and learned till mastery. Still, when this guy met Drona another time, Drona said he must pay him for teaching: he asked him to give one of his fingers. So he could not use his siddhi... it is all you need to know about Guru-tattwa. Guru is all; take the impulse from the Guru who gives it to you, and let Devi-Guru-Sadhana be the only true core of your life; by the way, this is the only Purity i have ever heard about. With love

Some similarities exist but the closest comparison of Śrī Bagalāmukhī/Valagāmukhī is with Śrī Vārāhī. In some ways Śrī Bagalāmukhī is different when we add Her Aṅgas - Jvālāmukhī etc. She is an extremely potent weapon and is better left alone unless we have a target that we wish to annihilate. If there is no target, then we ourselves become the target.

They are the same and come with the dīksha of Mahāṣoḍaśī. There are higher dīkshas such as Medha that include the other Mahāvidyās and Nirvāṇa that leads to Mahānirvāṇa Ṣoḍaśī. Revered Tivra has already given us all the instructions associated with these higher vidyas and those who have mastered Ṣoḍaśī and have an interest to pursue further, may do so with the Pūrṇadīkṣa coupled with the careful assessment of the instructions provided by Tivra.

dear nashmkm, thank you for your interest; all i know about the matters you ask me about is here on Manblunder; i just do my sadhana everyday for many many years and hope i will do it eternally as i just love my Goddess and Guru)) my Swaguru gave me his great shaktipat and allowed me to come through severe ordeals, and now i've got some knowledge on Guru-tattwa and some Devi anugraham; still i am really not a capable Teacher, i am the loving Pupil)) and i pray Mother that all the seekers of Divine here recognize who real Gurus here are, and follow their kind will directly... om tat sat. The only thing to add is a brief explanation of Khadgamala's action, from Sri Amritananda natha Saraswati: Meditate on names and forms of Avarana (covering) Devis as you go inwards to get the following. Layers of coverings in Sri Chakra: 1. Square- 10 siddhis, 8 passions, 10 gestures. Use them to enjoy astral powers. 2. Lotus of 16 petals. Time is divided into 16 lunar days, each day bringing a special dream gift. 3. Lotus of 8 petals. Let go of inhibitions. Offer fruits of all your actions to Goddess. 4. Star of 14. Powers ruling the worlds place their riches at your feet. 5. Outer star of 10. These airy spirits blow away poverty. 6. Inner star of 10. They defend you from enemies. 7. Star of 8. They eliminate diseases. 8. Triangle. They teach secrets of controlling lust, enhancing wisdom and manifesting visions. 9. Circle or point. Take you to unending powers beyond mind. Merge with infinite peace, bliss and light of union with Shiva-Shakti.
