Guest guest Posted November 26, 2002 Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 There is this demi goddess that many Dravidians worship this being, cannot really call it a goddess since it is demonic but many give her the position of devi. I have seen possessions by this entity but do not know much about her. Anyone care to elaborate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 26, 2002 Report Share Posted November 26, 2002 Pranam. I believe that this is a blood drinking demoness( ratha kaateri). But, I haven't heard of worship for this being. Generally seems to be avoided. With Love Shankaree With Mail you can get a bigger mailbox -- choose a size that fits your needs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 Ca Some One Tell Me Where Is The Temple Of Kateri Amman In Any Part Of India? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 Kateri ma also known as Parmeshwari ma is the last form of Mother Kali. She is both good and bad in different ways. In the madras culture, she is worshiped and offered persaud. Persaud can be Sweet and it can also be rum and cigarretes. She also accepts animal sacrifices. [Please see thread for Khal Bairo aka madurai veeren] One can describe her as a two side blade. In the madras culture, she is called to enter a devotee's body to help people who are sick, in pain, who would like to speak to her or just see if they are going in the right path, for any reasons, she will come to listen and take care of you. Please Note: She is not to be take lightly! She is a devi who can go anywhere, even the dirtiest places where other gods can't. If you have witnessed her in someone, it usual means that someone has sent Kateri to harm this person or this tradition of Kateri's worshipping has been in that family and that the family has promised continuance of her worshipping by their children and so on. As an example. This is what happens sometimes which shows how evil PEOPLE are. They go and ask Kateri ma to harm another person because they don't like that person and for that, they will offer persaud, rum and cigarrete, mala, flower's, etc. Now she will do that because she has just been fed persaud but NOT without consequences. Just because you have fed her does not mean you will not suffer the consequences of wanting to harm others. Not only have you sinned but she will come back to teach you a lesson! As for the other person who the harm is being done to, the person will suffer but if the person is good, lives a righteous life, prays and is spiritualy elevated, then the harm will be VERY minimal. If the person is also bad, and leads a terrible life, and harms and abuses people, then this is the way karma catches up to them. [Two side blade] Everything happens for a reason, and sometimes us humans do not understand, not that we dont have the capabilities.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Hi everyone, Based on my experiences.........since I am a shakti person whether I like it or not.......I attend an Ashram where Kateri is one of our Goddess.......... In this place we only offer clean food prasadamn and ask for good things and so forth...Kateri I recognise by her strong flowery smell and she do enter my body to heal the sick suffering ,children and to acknowledge her devotees. She is one of the 13 deities.......I can only see good in her ............but her powers are veryyyy real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 If you know this for a fact then as someone mentioned take the child to a Kali temple. They are numerous in Canada and New York. Mother is a sweet person but there are eveil people in this world that use her for nasty and destructive reasons. You should see a punjari and talk to him.

Kateri Daughter Posted March 13, 2007 Report Share Posted March 13, 2007 All i would say since i got those help to get the dutch man out of me. Its one of kateri men...Kateri is not evil its what people feed her. If someone can call up mother kateri or kal bhairo baba...he can clear it all you need to do is keep 5 week fast for ketari or 7 week fast for kal bhario it depends who talk to you either ketari or baba (kal bhairo) you will keep 5 week fast and break a coconut on every friday or sunday and as the 5 week come along you can give mother ketari her puja and the dutch will be out of him i had this happen to a friend n she iss all cured with the blessing of kateri mata and baba aka kal bhairo. When you do you puja on the last day of your 5 weeks you would break ur last coconut which is a balidan and the work would return who ever did it. You wouldnt have to scarfice anything. MY pandit told me i would have to scarifice anything i can just do a balidan to return the work to who ever did harm to you. Even when i met baba and kateri they said a balidan is fine because they understand that you dont want to scarifice and make it a tradition to scarifice something every year and then it would be generation to generation...hope this help you and hope the innocent boy is good now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlachman2 Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hello,to recognize a real manifestations, the devatas must take oath. It can be fire oath or rope everytime they manifest. This is to show that it is indeed them and not the person they manifest. If you go for a reading, you may ask politely for them to take an oath again or you may just ask them to tell you in your dreams. This is the best way for you will see for yourself. I hope this is helpfull. I Attend A Kali Temple I Trinidad And A Pujarin And The Guru Manifests Bhairo And Katayani/kateri. But I Am Unsure If That Is The Truue Shakti And I Am Unsure As To Whether The Justice That Is Given Or Reading Are True And Correct. Can Someone Please Heed My Plight.

INNOCENT Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 thank u for your reply rlachman2, i appreciate it, but there are others who say that pujares can take oath and rope even though the shakti is not on them in manifestation. is there any other way to know for certain as to whether the shakti in manifestation is real or the pujare is faking. are there any questions i could pose to satisfy my yearning TO CLARIFY WHETHER THIS IS THE SHAKTI I AM TALKING TO. I NEED TO BE FOR CERTAIN THAT THESE PEOPLE NOT FAKING AND FOOLING ME. THEY HAVE LYRICS TOO BAD......... THANK YOU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlachman2 Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Yes, it is true that some can take fire oath without the manifestation of the devatas, but this is a gift given only to a few. If you feel that the person is not manifesting the devatas and they haven't taken their oath then please don't feel obligated to say anything personal to them, if it is indeed the devatas, they will understand. On another note, if you have questions for these devatas, you can pray and ask them to communicated their answers to you in a dream. You can always go to a Pujari (not a Pusari) to ask what it means. Pujari would be the head of the temple and the experienced individual in the culture itself. Everyone else will be a pusari in learning.

INNOCENT Posted September 19, 2007 Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Thanks again Rlachman2, But a pusari? So those under the guidance and teachings of a Pujari is a Pusari? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlachman2 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 yes Innocent, just because they wear the garment doesnt make them into a pujari, the pujari will always wear white, while pusaries will wear yellow with red, the colors signify the fighting force and victory. The pusari will learn under the pujari, but unfortunately some learn and do their own mischief. They get upset and dont have the patience to wait and learn at a correct time, it is not easy to teach the impatient. The incantations are powerful yet majority of the pusaries have no idea what it means and dont bother to ask. They say they were never taught but yet they never asked. I hope this helps you to understand further. rlachman2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INNOCENT Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Thank you rlachman2, i am glad that you are positively contributing to my understandings pertaining to this worship.

Rlachman2@aol.com rlachman: if this is the last form of kali aka parmeshwari correct Param Eshwari (param -before; eshwari - consort of eshwarar :lord shiva) how can she be last of kali. according to what i have learnt Maa Kali has ten main forms known as Mahavidyas: they are 1) Kalika, 2) Tara, 3) Shodasi, 4) Bhuvanesvari, 5) Bhairavi, 6) Chinnamasta, 7) Tripur-sundari, 8) Bhagalamukhi, 9) Dhumavati and 10) Matangi. Which one is Kateri? or Parmeshwari? NONE. In shakti worship or according to you MADRAS CULTURE kateri is closely identified with the sixth form of Durga Maa that is to say Kaatyaayanee (nurse) to fix problems of women i.e. menses, cycles and other impure things that would not probabaly be seen by other deotas. it seems to me your roots like myself are that of the caribbean worship however humble to say a lot of what we have learnt is wrong. Parameshwari worship is of tribal india worship where instead of giving devi durga goats and fowls they give wild boars( to get one in the caribbean is hard so they now give pigs) but still what is wrong with that) they is no written way to pooja her for her rituals are handed down from generation to generation she is not double sided her way is just very strict. please correct me if i am wrong but this is what i have come to learn for i have read many of texts and i am yet to come across madrasi culture. do they only worship kali in tamil nadu dont get me wrong i worship the divine devi but she does not belong to madrasi culture alone and if you were a true madrasi you would know that. dont get me wrong and i am sorry if you are offended but my aim is not to riducule or brag of knowledge for i am still learning but what i have read from many of the texts you have posted i think you need to double check or reinvestigate your knowledge source. pujarie. five.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
