The Lalitha sahasranama itself calls her as one who exist in the form of Siva himself. It also calls her to be both Siva and Sakthi, Prakasa and Vimarsa. You have stated that Siva created Sakthi. How can Sakthi be created? If Sakthi is created, then Siva is created too because matter and energy exist simultaneously. Shankaracharya himself in his Soundarya Lahari wonders whether she has taken the other half of Siva too. So, don't find difference between both.

NamaskAram Sir, The MahA Bhairavi and Lalita Bhairavi mantra looks the same in English but appear different in DevnAgari.

Thank you! This seems to correspond to the description given in the old article in Devipuram's Digambara magazine (july 2006)

Nice to know about your experiences. May I know if that is the 9 lettered variant of the mantra you practiced?

You are correct, In the context of the above dhyāna śloka, the trident does not exist. The lower left forearm hugs his consort indicating that He is not separate from His consort and śakti, Siddhalakṣmī. The other forearm is holding the tusk. We can correspond the 2nd set of arms from bottom to Mahi and Varāha, holding the pomegranate and paddy representing nourishment. The 3rd with the club and rope with Śiva and Śakti. The 4th with the sugarcane bow and blue lily (divine flowers) with Manmatha and Rati. Finally the 5th, associating the cakra and rope with Viṣṇu and Mahālakṣmī. The sugarcane bow crushing also refers to the squeezing of the ego to allow the divine nectar to flow.

Dear Krshna, Thank you very much for such a detailed answer. I have one follow up. In your description you say that in the second set of arms Ganesha is holding a trident. However, in the translation of the dhyana sloka I haven't found a description of a trident - "He is holding pomegrante, a club, sugarcane bow, chakra, a lotus flower, a rope, divine flowers, paddy plant, His own tusk, hugging His Consort Vallaba (vallaba means wife), a kalaśa made of precious gems."

I have practiced dhanada yakshini, felt her presence next to me on more than one occasion. She did bless me with wealth. I practiced a different variant of the mantra.. Each person has different experience, my friend got a totally different experience with vatayakshini, she came in many female forms.. He stopped it as it was an inconvenience. The same person has got yakshini visitation during mantra Japan of the great goddess
