Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 "She is meditation, meditator and the object of meditation." This is a subtle indication of the unity that is at the root of Sri Vidya tradition. This is also the root of advaita philosophy. The difference is that in advaita you can know it intellectually but in Sri Vidya tradition, at an early stage, one FEELS it. Thus you experience it first hand. Once that state has been experiences, one is never the same. Further once having been "there" one can return to it periodically and ultimatly maintain oneself in THAT state. At the times when you feel yourself in that state, whether volentary or involentary; one IS DEVI herself and at that stage nothing is impossible; all siddis are there for you to use with discretion. That also is the danger of Sri Vidya; if one is not careful, it results in situations that are quite difficult.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Wellllllllll in SV nothing is taboo and an upasaka is NOT burdened by the Karma of his/her actions. Still if in arrogance you break the rules of nature - you can - then the nature comes down heavily. Now and immediate - so that there is no karma burden left. Normally the reaction for an ordinary person is spread out over lifetimes. For an SVU there is no other lifetime so its immediate swift and hard. ganpra <ganpra wrote:, sankara menon <kochu1tz> wrote: That also is the danger of Sri Vidya; if one is not careful, it results in situations that are quite difficult.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2005 Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 Action performed in nonduality is not dualistic in base, content or scope and therefore has no results, either good or bad. It is transcendental at its inception, during its course and transcendental at its goal. This is Sri. People who think Sri Vidya is pertaining to the outer Bhupur world are not thinking as Sri. if one who has studied nonduality begins to think dualistically again then they at that very moment feel the full wrath of Sri immediately until they again relenquish that thought.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 There is a specific school of srividya called vangachara. It is Bengali. Seek and you shall find; knock and the door shall open.
