Dear Aum Garu alias Bhuvanandanatha Garu, are you still not in the mode of dividing the people???......in your previous comments you mentioned Sakthi workship is different than other forms of worship...now you say one amnaya of Divine Mother is different than others......you need to come out of these mind games sir....we need to teach Advaita which is unity.....Gurus might be different but Guru Tatvam is the same sir.....are we even eligible to comment that disciples of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa are not liberated...how do we even know that? do we know each and every disciple of Great Lord Ramakrishna.....are we not crossing the line here, just to defend ourselves...one funny thing is a Great Sage like vashishta who taught Yoga Vashistha to Lord Rama and one of the Saptarishi is Dwaita Guru.....Vishwamitra is advaita Guru and what about Agastya maha muni ...is he Vishita advaita Guru.???? .....today our Sanathana Dharma is in this poor situation because everybody misinterpreted the shastras and created the superstitons, caste system, only certain castes can do certain things and others cannot do etc....we need to come out of these sir.....vasudaika kutumbam.....like Guru Dattatreya said..he had 24 Gurus....lets learn from all....आः नो भद्राः कर्तव्यो यन्तु विश्वतः ...which translates into English as "Let Noble thoughts come to us from every side"

Sir, regarding what you said - " Point here is that they might have got liberation but not their followers (exception to Sri Vivekananda who was a incarnation of a Rishi). If I may ask, how can one say that their (Sri Ramakrishna paramahamsa's) followers have not got liberation? Will a liberated one comes and tell the world? From what I understand and believe it is impossible to judge on topics like who is self-realized and aspects regarding liberated ones. Please correct me if I am wrong in my understanding.

In continuation to my previous post, I would like to say as long as people do not know the difference between Srividya and Sri Vidya there is no problem of chanting/practicing published mantras.

Each Amnaya has separate Guru Mandala. Again, Gurumandala of each Amnaya has different lineage. Like this there are many Guru Mandalas. During the passage of time, these separate Guru Mandalas got mixed up because of some other reasons (may be jumping from one guru to other etc) and evolved different Srividya practices. Evidence is that, we can find some procedures belongs to Dakshina cult in Kaula cult and vice versa. It is well known fact that Guru mandala is different for Panchadasi and Shodasi. Thank God we never question why don't we stop worshiping Shodasi Guru Mandala after worshiping of Panchadasi gurus mandala. (Argument is that all guru's are one and same). A great seer of Andhra Pradesh Sri Tadepalli Raghavanarayana Sastry Garu himself declared he belongs to fourth avarana of Srichakra. He was a Bala upasaka. I can not say whether he reached to pinnacle of Srichakra. Same way, Sri Ayalasomayajula Kavyakantha Ganapati muni garu, (fortunately I belongs to his Vamsam) a great Rishi of Andhrapradesh who was great upasaka of Devi (esp. Tara. He brought Tara upasana to South). Next coming to a great seer of East Sri Ramakrishna paramahamsa. He had two gurus 1.Bhairavi Brahmani 2. Totapuri. First person is Tantrik Guru and second person is Advaita guru. Some sadhakas offered him deeksha other than above two great gurus but he refused those offers. They neither discounted anyone nor diluted anyone's spirit ( for liberation). Point here is that they might have got liberation but not their followers (exception to Sri Vivekananda who was a incarnation of a Rishi). Why? If we observe above cleanly, we can understand that their spiritual development played great role to have gurus. Please remember, spiritual journey not restricted to this present body only. All these three great sages, did bahya puja as well as amtar puja. This soul will get right guru path/lineage as per its sadhana during present life. Classic example for this is HH Ramana Maharshi. He was a realized soul by birth (of course he did recognized it after certain age). He was a great sadhaka during his past births under great gurus. That sadhan fructified in his last birth. Some people showing him as example and argue "No guru is required" for Sadhana. But they ignore the facts behind his sadhana. So, what guru mandala puja we do in Srichakra Puja if we have separate gurus for separate mantra? A persons true zeal, urge, passion for liberation will get him eligibility to have right guru. It is not the argument. I am just trying to convey traditional values and its importance. Chanting one or true mantras daily in certain numbers will not give any result (either positive or negative). It is a psychological feeling of beginners that they are getting something new energy etc. If we do anything new which we like more will give us utmost happiness, new energy etc. In the same way if we start practicing any new puja procedure, new mantra etc will have such psychological effect for some time/days. Later that will go and new puja/mantra will start. It is like a flood flow. We have to accept this true. Some people may not agree to this point openly but their inner consciousness will definitely. - By Bhuvananandanatha. (AUM.Ravi)

I will definitely do so, thank you very much for your help.

In Sri Vidya, the role of the Sri Guru (the guru who initiates one into Sri Vidya) is considered very important and is primary. In the Sri Chakra puja, the Guru Mandala is worshipped along with Lord Shiva and the Divine Mother Shakti in the bindu (dot). The significance is that the Guru Mandala is one with the Super-consciousness and liberated. The role of the guru, is to lead us there, where he himself is elevated by us to that status. Such a guru who is liberated, does not have any attachments whatsoever, including mantras and simply cannot perceive anyone or anything, as different from the Divine Mother. A true guru leads us all the way to the bindu and introduces us to the Divine Mother. She alone becomes the True Guru, who then leads us to Paramashiva who completely liberates us. In today's world, we are chaining and pulling even the entire guru mandalas from the bindu, back to the mundane world, to fulfill our desires and our ignorance! It occurs to me, that the Gurus on the top echelons of the pyramid are suffocating from this and are probably requesting all sadhakas irrespective of lineage, to allow them to stay there. So maybe it is okay to pray to different gurus and all their mandalas, so they get to remain there with the Divine Mother, especially if the gurus at the base of the pyramid are not sharing the True knowledge with genuine sadhakas. What appears to be a dimensionless dot (bindu) to us, is an entire dimension and a world to the spiritually liberated.

what would be the state of the East, had the wondrous discoveries and inventions of the West were concealed and not revealed for the benefit of mankind? How many millions have been saved by the advances made in medicine? How many have been saved by the secret rasayana shastras? What did all the custodians of the most powerful and secretive mantras do, when the nations were attacked and millions perished across the globe? What purpose did these hoarders and selfish persons serve? In the end, all that matters is, not how much we gather, but how much we scatter. Krishna Sir, Thank you very much for these highly potent thought provoking lines.

Yes, body diseases - weakened immunity, illness cold, back pain from cold, tiredness, etc. Mostly it is put on me, so I worship the Mother Pratyangira a She helps me very much. Thanks to all for your help.

Dear Svarupanandanath ji, Good to see you here. Since you are from Guhanand mandali, I would like to ask something. It seems there was a committee "Sri Brahma Vidya Vimarshini Sabha" who published series of books in english. One gem i found at https://archive.org/details/SrividyaSaparyaVasanaSriBrahmaVidyaVimarshiniSabhaSeriesNo.6NSubramaniaIyer/page/n1 Do you have link of more books in english / Hindi ? That will be boon for all

Here, healing refer to body ailments? If, so there is a Pratyangira mantra in Atharvana Veda.
