Lotus feet?

[Guest guest]

I am considering ordering a crystal Rama Padukam,

which I saw adverized in an Indian website. This is a

carved image of God's footprints, on a lotus,

suggested for worship purposes.

 

Although the Padukam is attributed to Lord Rama,

comments in the article state that one can also use it

to worship Ayyappa, a South Indian god who is

considered the son of Vishnu and Shiva. (It's a long

story...)

 

I'm curious if anyone knows whether such a Padukam can

be used to worship the Goddess? I know Ramprasad

wrote frequently about meditating on Mother Kali's

black lotus feet. And the Sri Vidya tradition talks

about the other gods entering samadhi by gazing

lovingly at Lalitaa's dazzling toenails.

 

Is there a particular practice associated with worship

of a Padukam? And can someone suggest a mantra or

shloka invoking the blessings of the touch of the

Goddess's lotus feet?

First of all you didn't tell me anything regards these

last email !!

However I will simply suggest to you to use the mantra

Aum Kring Kalikayai Namah. A simple thing that you can

do however is with your out breathe recite the mantra

and with the in breathe imagine ( visualize ) that

Ma's energy is emanating from her toes and connecting

you to her as well as radiating in your third eye

 

Please let me know how you fare with this

 

Dhanyavaada
