Guest guest Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 1. Lion throne, Nityotsava Can someone please offer some helpful explanations about this: http://www.shivashakti.com/island.htm ? What is meant here with "lion throne"? As far as I know Lalita Devi sitts on a throne made of the five forms of Shiva. Is there any translation available of the Nityotsava? 2. Nityas "The Nityas or Eternities of Lalita represent the fifteen lunar days or tithis of the waxing Moon." Which group of goddesses do represent the fifteen lunar days of the waning Moon? 3. Goddess of no-Moon Lalita represents the full-Moon. Which goddess represents the no-Moon night? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2003 Report Share Posted September 14, 2003 Nityotsava IMHO means "daily festival". For a shakta every day is a festivel to celebrate the Universe and its creatrix - in whatever form one concieved Him/Her/It - and oneself. Krishnadasi <joisabc wrote:Hare Krishna!

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2003 Report Share Posted September 15, 2003 Sankara: Well said and written! We have another meaning festival is a form of exhibiting your joy (Anand) and there is no good or bad time,day or week or other wise for a Gnani who is a kula shreshta. All days and time are of his thithi nitya devis and all the nitya devis are a part of Lalitha and her worship. Each day is governed by a nityadevi who is herself Lalitha in fifteen forms and the sixteenth being herself. The worship is itself an Utsav, an anand, and worshiping her in the ways pronounced by her everyday is nityotsava.By doing this the mumukshu or the sadhaka achieves abhedhabhav and the truth of Atdwaiytha bhavna.Nothing is acheived with out the Guru's blessings and initiation,and what ever is read is not understood. Nityotsava is that after reaching ones Guru's feet the perpetual or constant happiness one achieves there after until his renunciation.
