Yes, it refers to manmathakalā. Manmathakalā refers subtly to क्लीं klīṁ, the kāmarāja bīja. You can read explanation for Lalitā Sahasranāma 322 kāmakalā rūpā in this link http://www.manblunder.com/articlesview/lalitha-sahasranamam-322

Is the bindu as the face, the two circles below, and the inverted triangle, is this form also referred to as the MANMATHAKALAM??

The flower should be held between the middle and ring fingers.

Namaste Sir, So Is the flower held between the middle and ring fingers offered to the Ganesha or just held between the fingers? I thought the flower is dipped in water and water is offered. Thank you Sir, Pratima

Real is Brahman and unreal is māyā. This is explained in detail in part I of this series. For him "īśāvāsyamidaṁ sarvaṁ” which means everything is Brahman. There are no stages for him. He always stays connected with Brahman and Brahman alone. When he is thus connected with It, obviously, he sees nothing and hears nothing as his consciousness has become one with IT. He is simply not concerned with what he sees or hears. There is no samadhi for him. When river waters merges with sea water, what happens to the river water. It remains merged. An Avadhūta is like the confluent water. Avadhūta Gītā needs repeated and patient reading to understand it. Though the crux of the revelation is that Brahman is omnipresent, it is explained from every possible way.

Both are different. In caturāvṛttitarpaṇam, gnerally a flower is held between the middle and ring fingers of the right hand; alternatively crystal, rudrākṣa, gold ring, etc are held in the place of flowers. There is no need to have any of these, when none of them are available. In In navāvaraṇa pūjā flowers are to be taken in the left hand. In the right hand, tweezers is to be taken with a piece of ginger held between the tweezers. At the time of saying pūjayāmi flowers from the left hand are to be placed. At the time of saying tarpayāmi, the ginger piece is to be dipped into viśeṣa arghya using the tweezers and a drop of viśeṣa arghya is to be offered in the same place where flowers are placed.

Sir, Is the tarpana that is done for MahaGanapati Chaturavritti same as how we do for Sri Chakra Puja?

What do mean by it is real and not real? The type state described here is like the person even in wakeful state does not see the world around him but only him. So if he see person X, then though he see physically X but understands fully that it is brahman? Or does an Avaduta been in a constant state of trance whether in wakeful state or sleep etc..in other works even in wakeful state there is nothing that he feels as in Samadhi (meaning samadhi is perfected in wakeful state as well - is this possible?)

That is why Brahman is explained as Omnipresent. This is the essence of Advaita Philosophy.

When I say that I'm not the body, why are we saying this as body is also Brahman? The theme in almost all the books is that I'm not body, mind etc but these are also Brahman. If we try and analyse everything is Brahman as the thought that arises, the thought that has arised here is Brahman, as it could not have arised without Brahman and at the basic level mind, thought, intelligence etc are nothing but energy which is nothing but Brahman In short it would be clearer to say that nothing exists but Brahman and what we identifying, fighting etc is Brahman's play with itself
