The Sacred Sounds of Sri Vidya by Vinita Rashinkar Pdf

“Sri Vidya begins where the current understanding of quantum physics ends,” say modern-day scholars about this little-known, highly esoteric spiritual tradition that has been kept under wraps by its practitioners. Sri Vidya practice is a three-fold one, encompassing mantra (sacred sound), yantra (sacred geometry) and tantra (a technique or framework for worship). Learning about the mantras used in the Sri Vidya tradition is fascinating as much as it is frustrating because information about its various aspects is exceptionally hard to find. This book endeavours to explore the main mantras used in the Sri Vidya tradition and understand them as the unfolding of Shakti, the inherent power which lies at the core of our being and holds the key to our worldly and spiritual success. Our minds and beliefs can be our strongest allies or our worst enemies. The book delves into concepts such as the importance of building the right narrative about life and the need for ritual in modern-day lifestyle. Samskara, vritti and vasana are described along with a detailed study of tantra and Sri Vidya before a discussion on mantras in general and then focusing on the mantras used in the Sri Vidya tradition. The subjects covered seek to establish the context of mantra sadhana in Sri Vidya is to be approached, combining elements of knowledge, devotion and ritual. We live in a time of deep insecurity, stuck in the midst of a feeling of scarcity, stress and self-limiting beliefs. This book offers everyone an opportunity to learn and experience the benefits of mantra sadhana of Sri Vidya and enjoy a life of abundance in all aspects of life – good health, meaningful relationships, success at work, peace and bliss in the spiritual path. The author has kept in mind the sensibilities of the modern spiritual seeker and their needs and interests, presenting the information in a non-dogmatic and practical manner.

Tantra, Mantra and Yantra of Sri Vidya by Vinita Rashinkar Pdf

"Sri Vidya begins where the current understanding of quantum physics ends," say modern-day scholars about this little-known, highly esoteric spiritual tradition that has been carefully kept under wraps by its secretive and serious practitioners. The study of Sri Vidya is fascinating as much as it is frustrating because information about its various aspects is exceptionally hard to find. Tantra, Mantra and Yantra of Sri Vidya is an endeavor to explore the Sri Vidya tradition and understand it as the unfolding of Shakti, the inherent power which lies at the core of our being and holds the key to our worldly and spiritual success. Sri Vidya practice comprises tantra (a technique or framework for worship) whose two main elements are mantra (sacred sound) and yantra (sacred geometry). Tantra can be described in simple terms as the utilization of the mental faculty to pursue the objectives of worship using mantra and yantra. Mantra is the use of sound energy to bring about oneness with the Divine while yantra is a geometric drawing that serves as a tool to reach the Divine. The book delves into concepts such as Sankhya, Yoga, Karma and Kundalini in order to establish the context of how Sri Vidya is to be approached, combining elements of knowledge, devotion and ritual. The author has kept in mind the sensibilities of the modern spiritual seeker and their needs and interests, presenting the information in a non-dogmatic and practical manner, thereby allowing everyone an opportunity to learn and experience the benefits of Sri Vidya. This is the third book by the author in the Spirituality Series. The first book was about the Sri Chakra Yantra and the second book had Chakras as its subject.

The Secret of Sri Vidya by Satya Narayana Sarma Rupenaguntla Pdf

There are many books written in abstract language on the Tantra Upasana known as Sri Vidya. However, they contain highly technical words, mantras and rituals which are beyond the understanding of a layman who is alien to the concept of Hindu religion. Hence, more than enlightening the reader, they confuse him. In this aspect, this book is different in its diction. It tries to explain the abstruse subject of Sri Vidya in simplest possible terms, highlighting its most benign form of practices. Explaining the meanings of important mantras from the Upanishads, the connection between Sri Vidya and the Vedas has been established in this book. In addition, the four paths of Sri Vidya have been briefly touched upon, introducing the readers to the practical aspects of these four esoteric paths. Dispelling the fear of Tantra and the worship of God in his feminine aspect, the entire subject of Sri Vidya has been explained in this book. If the reader develops interest in the sadhana of Sri Vidya after reading this work, we feel our efforts in writing this book are fulfilled.

The quest for wellness is universal and has always featured prominently in human history. To move ahead in this journey, learn all about the mystical energy centers that are integral to the ancient Indian traditions of Yoga and Ayurveda. The Chakras are inner portals of harmony, linking the physical and spiritual planes, thus offering a deep and time-tested formula for transformation, abundance and the ability to hack into one’s own power of manifestation. Using simple and everyday language, this book equips you with the ability to harness the potential of the tremendous internal energy pools that lie dormant in the body, and helps you to channelize it and act upon your life purpose by presenting Chakras as a tool for self-development. The book delves into concepts such as Sankhya, Yoga philosophies and the Karma doctrine in order to establish the context of how the Chakra energies work. It outlines the various aspects (such as sound, colour, mandala, body parts, related ailments and dysfunctions) associated with each of the seven chakras while recommending time-tested remedies to bring each chakra into a state of balance and harmony. Compatible with any spiritual path, the holistic perspective helps create a richer and more fulfilling life, from overcoming everyday challenges to taking charge of one’s wellbeing, expressing one’s true self and navigating life’s journey towards full-spectrum living.

Sri Vidya-Tapping Into Divine Mother's Grace by Swami Anand Almasta Pdf

For years, I dabbled around aimlessly on the spiritual path .It was only when I found the tradition and path of Sri Vidya that my heart and mind finally settled into a sadhana /spiritual practice with so much intensity that it bore great spiritual fruits of unconditional love, bliss and clarity. Whenever I think of Sri Lalita Maha Tripura Sundari (The blissful divine mother of the cosmos)my heart melts like butter placed on a hot stove and my eyes brim and overflow with tears of devotion and gratitude . I always felt that there was no juice of devotion in my spiritual practice . It was only when I connected with the divine feminine that I could express and receive love, develop true compassion and gentleness in my otherwise detached and indifferent persona. True detachment is a total blossoming of love and total involvement without any expectation . Wanting unconditional love is the biggest condition . To receive love, one has to first embody and share it because we become love incarnate when we strip away the layers of illusion . Divine mother/Kundalini automatically by her grace takes you to the state of total spiritual emancipation. This whole world of illusory images is her creation and by surrendering at her lotus feet, she will ferry you across the ocean of samsara into a state of transcendental bliss where all sense of separation dissolves and this world of suffering is seen as the most beautiful dance of life . She will fulfil all your desires; both spiritual and material but it is best to invoke her for spiritual liberation . Ma Tripura Sundari is a very gentle and extremely loving deity but can be fierce too in helping you confront your shortcomings and layers of ignorance. The love of Ma Kali, Ma Tara and other fierce forms of divine mother has its own sweetness and flavour but for a householder who is entangled in his worldly responsibilities and attachments, their ways can be overwhelming sometimes . Thus, the worship of Man Tripura Sundari is great for householders. Having said that, many monks also practice Sri Vidya but the intensity and way of worship is slightly different . It is always best to get initiated by a guru who has got the siddhi(perfection )of the mantra and is associated with a traditional Sri Vidya lineage . I was instructed by a guru who learnt under an adept Sri Vidya practitioner . When he initiated me into the mantra, It almost felt like a seed was implanted in my third eye which would germinate, sprout and mature with years of dedicated practice . I was initiated into panchadasi mantra first, followed by shodasi and finally the mahashodasi mantra . Usually the Bala mantra is given as the primary initiation . I am ever grateful to my guru for initiating me into this divine and ancient practice .The Sadhana of Sri Vidya can involve worship of the Sri chakra, detailed rituals, various Nyasas and poojas in addition to the saguna upasana(worship of the form of divine mother ) and most importantly the devotional and dedicated Japa(mental recital )of her powerful mantras . I have personally not done the poojas and elaborate rituals though they are taught in the lineage in which I was initiated . I mainly visualised the form of divine mother and chanted her divine mantra lakhs of times . I am not very good at sitting for long hours so I made it a practice to keep chanting Mahashodasi mantra throughout the day, although it is best to sit dedicatedly on your asana(spiritual seat) in your meditation room . Eventually the chanting continued in the dreams and was the first thought that popped up in my mind when I woke up .

Auspicious Wisdom by Douglas Renfrew Brooks Pdf

Rooting itself in Kashmir Shaivism, Śrividyā became a force in South India no later than the seventh century, and eventually supplanted the Trika as the dominant Tantric tradition in Kashmir. This is the first comprehensive study of the texts and traditions of this influential school of goddess-centered, Śākta, Tantrism. Centering on the goddess's three manifestations—the beneficent deity Lalita Tripurasundari, her mantra, and the visually striking sricakra—Śrividyā creates a systematic esoteric discipline that combines elements of the yogas of knowledge, of devotion, and of ritual. Utilizing canonical works, historical commentaires, and the interpretive insights of living practitioners, this book explores the theological and ritual theories that form the basis for Śrividyā practice and offers new methods for critical and comparative studies of esoteric Hinduism.
