The Five Limbs (Panchanga) of Bala

[Guest guest]

The Five Limbs (Panchanga) of BalaListen, Virachamunda, to the characteristics

of jiva. It is supreme, whole, eternal, consisting of nothing, stainless. It is

the ultimate atomic particle, the Natha, it is supreme Shiva, all pervading, it

is above all, it is Hamsa, the soul of Shakti. It is the mind, the breath, the

buddhi and the chitta, residing in the inspiration and expiration of the breath

of all living beings. - Kaulajnananirnaya, VI, 4-6.

 

 

 

 

 

This is the first English translation of the five limbs, or panchanga, of the

aspect of Goddess known as Bala Tripura. Bala means "girl", this aspect of the

Red Goddess is the most highly erotic of Her three aspects, as the 1,000 names

show. Bala is an adolescent woman, Tripurasundari a mother, and Tripurabhairavi

a woman in whom menstruation has ceased.

 

 

 

Bala's root mantra is aim klim sauh and variations of this mantra are used in

her daily ritual. Many tantrik devatas have manuals structured along similar

lines. The devata is first visualised as residing in the heart, then later drawn

out through the breath and "placed" in the yantra. On installation or

invocation, various ritual accessories are offered, and the 1,000 adjectives

(names) of the particular deity recited. The Devi is then drawn 'back' into

one's heart, and the ritual concludes with various elements "cleaning up" the

area of worship.

 

 

 

The five limbs of a ritual panchanga are Patala, Paddhati, Kavacha (Armour),

1,000 Names, and Stotra. The first gives the unfolding of the mantra, usually in

coded form. It also describes the meditation image and the yantra of the devata,

as well as various optional rites. The second limb describes the ritual worship,

including worship of the avarana or attendants of the devata, which are really

aspects of the god or goddess. The kavacha is an "armour" used to ward off evil

and which may either be recited or written and then worn on the body. The fourth

limb consists of the 1,000 names, of which there are very many sets in the

tantrik literature. The fifth, the Stotra, is the hymn of praise of the

ishtadevata, the tutelary devata of a tantrik sadhaka.

This particular manual comes from the Devirahasya, a large work which contains

many other panchangas relating to different aspects of Shiva and Shakti.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bala Patala

 

 

Seated on Kailasa Summit is Bhagavan, spouse of Uma, the God with a crescent

Moon as His diadem, whose eyes are Sun, Moon and Fire, wearing an elephant skin,

mighty, worshipped by the Gods, bowed to by hosts of Gandharvas, mighty Yakshas,

and by gods and demons.

 

 

 

Having recited mantra, and having read sacred texts, rising up and bowing,

Bhairavi questions the Lord.

 

 

 

Shri Bhairavi - Lord God, Ocean of Compassion, who reveals all Agamas, by Your

grace I have heard of all the Vidyas, O Sureshvara. Now I would like to hear of

Bala Tripurasundari. If this can be spoken of, declare the Vidya, O God

Maheshvara.

 

 

 

Shri Bhairava -- Listen Devi, I speak of the five Limbed Manual (Panchanga)

desired by sadhakas, (which consists of) Patala, Paddhati, Armour, 1,000 Names

and King of Hymns. O Mahadevi, listen one-pointedly. Parameshani, Shri Bala is

the Goddess bestowing both enjoyment and Liberation.

 

 

 

O Mahadevi, one may give away power, dominion, house and wealth. All these may

be given away, but one should never give away this thing which is the best of

all. In the Kali Yuga there is no other Vidya resembling this Vidya. It is said

that Shri Bala Tripura gives siddhi quickly.

 

 

 

It should be passed on to peaceful disciples, and to those devoted to their

Guru. One should not give this Vidya to the undevoted, O Parameshvari.

 

 

 

I will speak of the unfolding of the mantra, yantra, prastara, meditation, and

the rites of the Devi, O Maheshvari. First, Deveshi, listen to the unfolding of

the Mantra which bestows all fruit. It should be carefully concealed, whoever

knows it becomes successful (Siddha).

 

 

 

One should place "Shakti" (Sauh) at the end of 'Vagbhava" (Aim) and

"Kamaraja"

(Klim), ending this with Namah. O Devi, this is the eight lettered Mantra of

Bala. (There are) no obstacles, or impurity or restrictions attached to it, it

causes one to become a Siddha, O Mahadevi, and is the King of Mantras in the

Kali Yuga.

 

 

 

Dakshinamurti is the Seer, Pankti is the Metre for pronunciation, the Goddess if

Tripura-Bala, "Aim" is the Seed, "Sauh" the Shakti. "Klim" is the

linchpin. Its

application is towards Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha.

 

 

 

One should do (six fold) Nyasa on the head, on the mouth, in the heart, on the

feet, on the navel lotus and in all the limbs, O Devi.

 

 

 

One should do Nyasa according to the rules doing Seer, Hand and Limb nyasa,

using the bijas of the mantra, O Maheshvari.

 

Now I speak of Her meditation, advantageous for all sadhakas:

 

 

 

I meditate on Bala, clothed in red, with a digit of the Moon as Her ornament,

effulgent as the rising sun, with three eyes, holding a book and a rosary,

showing the gestures of removing fear and giving, seated on a red lotus.

 

 

 

Having meditated in this way one should repeat the mantra which gives success. A

pure sadhaka should prepare (the mantra by reciting it) 300,000 times.

 

 

 

Now I speak of the unfolding of the Yantra of Mahadevi, the Giver of both

Enjoyment and Liberation, which is very hard to get to know of for any sadhaka.

 

 

 

Bindu, triangle, eight triangles, eight petals, adorned with three circles and

enclosed in an earthsquare. This circle of Bala (and Her attendants) is the

Destroyer of Pain, O Mountain-Born One!

 

 

 

One should worship the Shaktis of the pedestal when inscribing the Yantra. The

pedestal Shaktis are Will (Iccha), Knowledge (Jnana), Action (Kriya), Lotus-Girl

(Kamini), Giver of Sexuality (Kamadayini), Sexual Pleasure (Rati), Loving the

Bliss of Sexual Pleasure (Ratipriyananda), and Mind-Born (Manonmani) lastly. One

should place these Shaktis round the pedestal using the mantra "Vyoma Parvata

Tartiya Sadashiva Mahapadam Pitha Padmasanaya Namah". This is the pedestal

Mantra. Having put, in order, these 16 syllables around the image (Yantra) one

should recite the root mantra.

 

 

 

One should invoke Devi and worship Her with the ritual accessories according to

the rules. Having invoked the desired Devi in the centre of the yoni, one should

worship in the triangle, in a similar way Sexual Love (Rati) on the left,

Pleasure (Priti) on the right, and Mind-Born (Manobhava) at the apex. One should

worship the six Limbs inside the yoni (i.e. central triangle) starting from the

South East.

 

 

 

Outside the central yoni one should worship, from the East, in a clockwise

direction, the Arrow-Devis. In the eight yoni-triangles one should worship the

eight Shaktis called Beautiful Bhaga (Bhaga=female sexual organ), Bhaga, Nectar

of Bhaga, Bhaga adorned with Flowers, Primordial Sexual Pleasure, The Flower of

Sex, the Girdle of Sex, the Bliss of Sexual Love - these are the eight Shaktis.

 

 

 

In the filaments of the lotus one should worship Brahmi and so forth, and in the

petals themselves the (eight) Bhairavas. One should also worship, in the petal

tips, from the East in a clockwise direction, the Sacred Sites called Kamarupa,

Malaya, Kaulagiri, Cauhara, Kulantaka, Jalandhara and Oddyana -- the eighth

being Devikuta.

 

 

 

In the bhupura one should worship in the cardinal directions Heruka,

Tripurantaka, Vetala, Agnijihva, Kalantaka, Kapalini, Ekapada, Bhimarupa, Mala

and Hatakeshvara. (Also) in the directions one should worship Indra and the

others with the (various) weapons.

 

 

 

Outside of this, in the directions, one should worship Vatuka, the Yoginis,

Kshetrapala and Ganesha. In the intermediate points one should worship the

(eight) Vasus, the Sun, and Shiva. One should worship all the elements and then

the weapons.

 

First of all one should meditate on Bala in the embrace of Kameshvara in the

centre; A Kaula should worship using the five makaras according to the rules of

Kaulachara.

 

 

 

The sadhaka skilled in the mantra should worship Mahadevi in the bindu (of the

yantra) with scent, unhusked rice, flowers, incense, flame and liquid oblation.

This is called Layanga.

 

 

 

Listen to the rituals, O Parvati. Whosoever skilled in mantra who does this

gains a share of success swiftly, it is certain. The (eight rites) are

Paralysing, Deluding, Killing, Attracting, Subjugating, Driving Away, Peace

Making and Healing.

 

 

 

This sadhana is the Quintessence, invisible, Dear One. One should not give this

to those undevoted to Devi, and should keep it concealed and secret from pashus.

 

 

 

(1) On the first day of the Waxing Moon, Devi, having bathed and done the daily

rite, one should go to a deserted place at midday. There one should do sacrifice

by a 10th part using ghee, curd and so forth. One should do oblation to the

Goddess, then immediately one is free to paralyse, this is certain.

 

 

 

(2) At dusk, in the cremation ground, one should recite (the mantra) on a seat

made of owl feathers. One should do much sacrifice and by a tenth part of this

give ghee, wine, grain, shoots and lotus seeds. Then one may delude the world.

 

 

 

(3) Having gone in the morning or at night to the place of Ghosts and Elementals

(Cremation Ground), the mighty Hero should recite the Vidya of 16 letters in

front of a cremation pyre. The mantrin should do much sacrifice of ghee,

fragrant gums and hairs of chandalas in the burning funeral pyre. (In this way)

one kills an enemy.

 

 

 

(4) On an eighth day of the Bright Fortnight the sadhaka should recite (the

mantra) in secret. Having recited a myriad times using the root Vidya, and

having meditated, O Charming One, one should do sacrifice of a 10th part giving

ghee, lac, flowers, menstrual blood, wheat and bamboo shoots. (Then) one may

attract women.

 

 

 

(5) Dearest, on a ninth day the ritualist, having bathed and done the daily

rite, should offer much ghee, fish, eggs, lotus, pearls, and hair of deer. Doing

sacrifice in this way, O Lady of Heroes, one is able to make people slaves.

 

 

 

(6) On the fourth Lunar Day of a Dark Fortnight one should recite the mantra at

the arising of the Moon, Dearest. On a riverbank, seated in Shirsha Asana, the

Hero should recite the mantra many times. One should sacrifice a 10th part of

this, giving ghee, blue lotus, cloves, black pepper and tamarind. Then one may

cause an enemy to flee.

 

 

 

(7) On a fifth night, O Deveshi, one should recite the mantra a myriad times.

One should sacrifice a 10th of that and should offer ghee, fish, sugar cane and

camphor - thus one may calm down great disputes, wars and adversities.

 

(8) On a great eighth day (of the dark Lunar fortnight) a person1 having bathed,

should do sadhana on the best of pedestals. The hero should recite (the mantra)

10,000 times and should sacrifice a 10th part of that, giving ghee, camphor,

grapes, many betel leaves, goat flesh and blood. Then one causes healing to

occur.

 

 

 

This thing which is secret is the form of all, my very Self, O Deveshi, Secret.

One should conceal it in the Kali Yuga. On Sundays etc. one should recite the

mantra 10,000 times. Then one becomes Siddha, there should be no doubt about

this! This celestial chapter is revealed because of Your love. Hide it! It

should be concealed, hide it as You would conceal Your own yoni.

 

 

Shri Bala Paddhati

 

 

Now I will declare the Paddhati in its spoken form - the essence of Shri Bala

Tripureshvari, the Giver of Happiness. Having done morning acts those who are

devoted should worship Devi. This puja is fruitless for those impure at the

Three (Twilights).

 

 

 

Extending from the base of the spine to the top of the head, like a lotus stem,

a brilliant, white, slender thread, one should meditate on Devi, Giver of

Subjugation, Great Good Fortune and Eloquence; as surrounded by a swarm of black

bees; with braided hair garlanded with flowers; with a face marked with a jewel

as her forehead mark; her mouth sweetly smiling, wearing a beautiful diadem; her

head adorned with pearls and diamonds; with a slender crescent Moon as crest

gem; her three bright eyes effulgent as a swarm of sapphire bees; with jewelled

coiled earrings, the chief of which is as bright as the Sun: ornamented with

shining pearls and gems of dazzling appearance; around her throat a necklace

like a line of bees, beautiful and bedazzling, surpassing nectar in its beauty;

adorned with beautiful and resplendent garments like the white water of the

Ganga in flood; beautiful, sinuous graceful limbs, scented and sweet like

creeping vines; covered in gold and by other precious metals,

and by glistening jewels, glittering and bright; her beautiful feet and toes

like red lotuses with their petals; as bright as the circle of the starry realm

(Nakshatras); adorned with pearl-like blossoms; with her lower left hand holding

a book and her upper right hand dispelling the fears of sadhakas; in her two

right hands holding a rosary and bestowing boons; She herself being of the

dazzling whiteness of snow, milk or the Moon; gracious and charming.

 

 

Armour of Shri Bala Tripurasundari

 

 

Shri Bhairavi said - Devadeva, Mahadeva, expander of devotees who please You,

the Armour of Devi is hidden. Speak of this to Me!

 

 

 

Shri Bhairava -- Listen Devi, I speak of the Armour difficult to get even for

gods. One should never reveal this high secret, which gives the wished for

siddhi to a sadhaka. The Seer of the Armour is Dakshinamurti. Pankti is the

Metre. The Devi is Tripurasundari. Its application in puja is the four aims of

Mankind. She wears a pearl diadem, coiled earrings, armlets, a necklace of gems;

pearl finger rings; effulgent bracelets and other jewels; a golden hip girdle,

glittering anklets; her navel is adorned with a ruby, and she has a bracelet of

shells, with a Kala of the Moon on her forehead. She holds a noose, a goad, a

book and a rosary in her upper hands and the other hands.

 

 

 

May the Vagbhava Aim protect my head, and the Kamaraja Klim my heart! May the

Shakti Bija Sauh protect me in my navel, genitals and feet!

 

 

 

May Aim Klim Sauh protect my face, and Bala shield me in my siddhi! May Ha Sa Ka

La Hrim Sauh Bhairavi shield my throat, and may Sa Ka La Sundari shield me in

the region of the navel!

 

 

 

May Mahatripurasundari shield my brow, and the point between my eyes! Subhaga

protect my forehead! Bhaga shield my throat! Bhagodevi protect my heart!

Bhagasarpini, shield my belly!

 

 

 

Bhagamala, shield my navel! Manobhava, protect my penis! May the auspicious

Lady, the Queen of Queens, the Mahadevi, shield my anus!

 

 

 

Mother of the Cosmos (Jagad Ambika), form of Consciousness, protect my feet!

Narayani, protect me at night! Shubhankari shield me in all my actions!

 

 

 

May Brahmani protect me in the East, and Vaishnavi in the South! May Varahi

protect me in the West, and Maheshvari in the North! May Kaumari protect me in

the South East, and Mahalakshmi in the South West! May Chamunda protect me in

the North West, and Indrani in the North East!

 

 

 

Mahamaya, protect me in Water! Sarvamangala, shield me in Earth! Varada, protect

me in Aether! Bhuvaneshvari, protect me everywhere!

 

 

 

This Armour is called "Names of the Goddess" and is hard to obtain! The pure

person with concentrated mind should arise and recite it at dawn.

 

 

 

Whoever does it knows no fear or disease. Nor is he afraid of death or anxious

about sin. He is never poor, nor is he vanquished by death. He dwells in the

realm of Shiva, O Devi. I say to You that this is most certainly true.

 

 

 

O Auspicious One, whosoever should recite this Armour having not been initiated

into Shri Vidya gains no fruit, but is struck by lightning.

 

 

The 1,000 Names of Bala

 

 

Shri Devi - Shri Natha Shankara, Bliss-Maker, speak! O Lord God, how may one

obtain the yoga-power of full devotion, O Ocean of Wine 1 If You have compassion

for Me Shambhu, reveal that which is well-hidden!

 

 

 

Shri Bhairava -- By devotion to Shakti one comes to know the entire vermilion

ocean of Bliss, the hidden essence of Bala. Dear One, I will speak to You of Her

1,000 Names. One should well hide it, O One with Thighs like Plantain Stems, it

is revealed out of deep and amorous affection for You. Whoever meditates on how

Devi is hymned immediately gains the whole mass of happiness, and is the cause

of Knowledge.

 

 

 

(Of this 1,000 Name-Hymn of Shri Bala Sundari, Bhargava is the Seer, Anushtubh

is the Metre, Shri Bala Tripura is the Devata. Aim is the Seed, Sauh is the

Shakti, Klim the linchpin. The application by reading it are the four aims of

Mankind.

 

 

 

Rishi Nyasa :Hail to Bhargava the Seer on the head; Hail to Anushtubh the Metre

on the mouth; Hail to Shri Bala the Devata in the heart; Hail to the Seed Aim in

the genitals; Hail to the Shakti Sauh on the feet; Hail to the Linchpin Klim on

the navel; Hail to the Application on all the limbs.

 

 

 

Aim hail to the thumbs; Klim obeisance to the index fingers; Sauh hail to the

middle fingers; Aim hail to the ring fingers; Klim hail to the little fingers;

Sauh to the front and backs of the hands hail Thus the heart and other Nyasa are

related. Meditation-)

 

 

 

Wearing red clothes, with a Kala of the Moon as Her ornament, effulgent as the

Thus the celestial cause of Supreme Bliss has been declared, the Salt Vermilion

Waves of Bala giving all satisfaction. O Parvati, of all sets of 1,000 names in

the tantras, this is the quintessence.

 

 

 

Dearest, this hymn may be recited at all times, at night, and during puja in the

morning. When Bala, the Giver of All Dominion and Happiness, is pleased, She

bestows jewels of various kinds, wealth, and (answers all) requests. O

Parameshvari, She bestows whatever desires a person has, and sons and daughters

are born if one wishes it.

 

 

 

Enemies are destroyed, ailments are alleviated. If in a difficult situation,

things are eased, medicines are bestowed on one. This bestows beautiful palaces,

pictures, and all dominion. For a person, agriculture bestows rich harvests, and

the heavenly cow seems to dwell for him on earth. His country prospers, and his

state is not afflicted with calamities. Great elephants shower him with streams

of nectar.

 

 

 

He dwells happily in palaces, surrounded by gems and horses. His offspring

become rulers, free from strife, ministers of the king. Those known to him

please him, he becomes noble and very beautiful, wealthy, always in a good

position, alluring. Spoken speech and verse musically flow from him, like the

Ganges in flood. He becomes able to expound the various meanings of various

verses, becoming skilled in the entire essence of all, successful, his speech

like gracious blossoms.

 

 

 

Shastras unknown to him are constantly revealed. Those with faults who would

attack him become fearful, they sing adoringly of him, like slaves before a

king. Swords and missiles hurt not his limbs. Women of all classes become

completely subjugated by him. Poison becomes like wine-nectar for him. The host

of opponents are paralysed, and his enemy crushed, if the knower of Yoga should

continually practise for a period of nine nights.

 

 

 

If he should recite day and night, without idleness, he becomes peaceful of

mind, and all created things in all the worlds become subject to him, there is

no doubt of it.

 

 

 

If one should perform the yoga continually for six months, one becomes the (very

essence of) Yogamaya, without question. Whosoever reads this ultimate hymn

whilst meditating on Kamakala has women in a state of subjugation seeking him,

intoxicated with sexual desire, beautiful, mad with lust, with beautiful

enraptured eyes. He knows satiety of love through feminine desire, in this act

of subjugation.

 

 

 

On a fortunate day, having written the yantra of Devi on birch-bark, colouring

it with rochana, kumkum, lac, red dye, or sunflowers, making the womb of the

yantra (=triangle) of gold or silver hue, very alluring, one should awaken Bala,

having worshipped and established Her. If one should then carry this on one 's

head, throat, shoulder, or near to one's heart or navel, one becomes wealthy,

victorious, and gains love.

 

 

 

There is nothing greater than this in the three Worlds for protection, most

certainly. Planets, diseases, and so forth, anxieties, are all banished, one

gains happiness and health, it is the cause of strength and virility, and

destroys cruel elements and enemies.

 

 

 

It gives sons, daughters, increases a host of qualities, gives wealth and grain.

In whichever city this best of sadhaka dwells, whilst bearing Her, wealth is

gained. In whichever dwelling this stotra is placed and written out, O Varanana,

there I - Shiva, Hari and Kamala always dwell, and it is as if all the sacred

waters spring from this place.

 

 

 

If the best of sadhakas should recite and read this devotedly he knows

Knowledge, Bliss and Unity. O Deveshi, by reading this hymn, one gains the fruit

of worship. One should recite it very carefully having established oneself in

the six fold Nyasa. In the best of all tantras is the puja of Bala. There the 16

letters are the greatest thing. This, the best of all hymns, is found there.

 

 

 

O Sundari, one should never give this to those who are not pupils, the impure,

fraudulent, indolent, who make no efforts, the undevoted, those deficient of

Vishnu bhakti, the unstable or the stupid. It should be given to those who are

devoted, as it is the cause of liberation, and augments devotion. O Varanana,

whilst engaging in sexual intercourse (Latayoga), one may read the hymn. One

becomes like the Aeon Creeper (Kalpalata), and the fruit of one's desires are

achieved.

 

 

 

If a sadhaka should steadily recite this whilst in Latayoga, offering blossoms

to the gazelle-eyed (partner), he is blessed with the results of 100 sacrifices

(Yajna). O Deveshi, Brahma and the other (devatas) worship his feet, he himself

becomes like Shiva -- that discriminating person who is attached to devotion to

Bala. He becomes one with the Bliss of the Absolute, Jyotsna, in the state of

Sadashiva.

 

 

 

 

Shri Bala Stotra

 

 

Shri Bhairava said - Parvati, now I speak of the Hymn of Devi Bala. Having heard

the secret Panchanga, one should always conceal it.

 

 

 

(Dakshinamurti is the Rishi of this stotra-mantra of Shri Bala Tripurasundari;

Pankti is the Metre; Shri Bala Tripurasundari is the Devata; Aim is the Bija;

Sauh is the Shakti; Klim is the Kilaka; its application when reciting it is

pleasing Shri Bala.

 

 

Hail to Dakshinamurti on the head

Hail to the Metre Pankti on the mouth

Hail to the Devata Shri Bala in the heart

Hail to the Bija Aim on the navel

Hail to the Shakti Sauh on the genitals

Hail to the Linchpin Klim on the feet

Hail to the Application when Reciting on all limbs

 

 

Aim to the heart obeisance

Klim to the head

Sauh to the peak

Aim to the armour

Klim to the eyes

Sauh to the missile

 

 

Aim to the thumbs hail

Klim to the index fingers

Sauh to the middle fingers

Aim to the ring fingers

Klim to the little fingers

Sauh to the front & back of the hands

 

 

 

(Meditation:)

 

 

 

Like the coloured red rays of the Sun shining brightly through red dust, the

colour of the Japa rose, holding book, dispelling fear, and in Her other hands

giving boons and holding a fully blossomed white water lotus. Thus one should

establish in one's heart the eternally beautiful form Bala.

 

 

 

One should recite Aim, O Tripura Bhavani. One becomes greater than God or Guru,

and has dominion and so forth of the partner of the Lord of the Mountains.

 

 

 

Within the course of one day, one should recite the King of Your Mantras known

as the triple syllable Kamaraja, that of Kameshvari. The person initiated in

Kula should worship the earthly and most beautiful and alluring courtesan.

 

 

 

One should recite Sauh, O Tripura, Mother of the three Worlds! You Who Manifest,

Play, and bring all to Completion, the core of the Absolute (Brahmapada),

Self-Existent! One should worship in the rectangle, the circles, the eight

petalled lotus, within the city of the lotus of six petals, worshipping Bala in

the Bindu Pitha, in order to become greater than Shiva.

 

 

 

Whosoever should recite this hymn of Tripura, which consists of mantra, at night

or at dawn, becomes garlanded (praised) on earth, and in three days becomes

equal to Shukra, Saura and Lakshmi.

 

 

 

Thus this stotra of Devi Bala, consisting of ultimate Mantra, is revealed. One

should not give it to the undevoted, and should conceal it as if it were Your

own yoni.

ward off evil and which may either be recited or written and then

worn on the body. The fourth limb consists of the 1,000 names, of

>

> First of all one should meditate on Bala in the embrace of

Kameshvara in the centre; A Kaula should worship using the five

makaras according to the rules of Kaulachara.

>

>

>

> The sadhaka skilled in the mantra should worship Mahadevi in the

bindu (of the yantra) with scent, unhusked rice, flowers, incense,

flame and liquid oblation. This is called Layanga.

>

>

>

> Listen to the rituals, O Parvati. Whosoever skilled in mantra who

does this gains a share of success swiftly, it is certain. The (eight

rites) are Paralysing, Deluding, Killing, Attracting, Subjugating,

Driving Away, Peace Making and Healing.

>

>

>

> This sadhana is the Quintessence, invisible, Dear One. One should

not give this to those undevoted to Devi, and should keep it

concealed and secret from pashus.

>

>

>

> (1) On the first day of the Waxing Moon, Devi, having bathed and

done the daily rite, one should go to a deserted place at midday.

There one should do sacrifice by a 10th part using ghee, curd and so

forth. One should do oblation to the Goddess, then immediately one is

free to paralyse, this is certain.

>

>

>

> (2) At dusk, in the cremation ground, one should recite (the

mantra) on a seat made of owl feathers. One should do much sacrifice

and by a tenth part of this give ghee, wine, grain, shoots and lotus

seeds. Then one may delude the world.

>

>

>

> (3) Having gone in the morning or at night to the place of Ghosts

and Elementals (Cremation Ground), the mighty Hero should recite the

Vidya of 16 letters in front of a cremation pyre. The mantrin should

do much sacrifice of ghee, fragrant gums and hairs of chandalas in

the burning funeral pyre. (In this way) one kills an enemy.

>

>

>

> (4) On an eighth day of the Bright Fortnight the sadhaka should

recite (the mantra) in secret. Having recited a myriad times using

the root Vidya, and having meditated, O Charming One, one should do

sacrifice of a 10th part giving ghee, lac, flowers, menstrual blood,

wheat and bamboo shoots. (Then) one may attract women.

>

>

>

> (5) Dearest, on a ninth day the ritualist, having bathed and done

the daily rite, should offer much ghee, fish, eggs, lotus, pearls,

and hair of deer. Doing sacrifice in this way, O Lady of Heroes, one

is able to make people slaves.

>

>

>

> (6) On the fourth Lunar Day of a Dark Fortnight one should recite

the mantra at the arising of the Moon, Dearest. On a riverbank,

seated in Shirsha Asana, the Hero should recite the mantra many

times. One should sacrifice a 10th part of this, giving ghee, blue

lotus, cloves, black pepper and tamarind. Then one may cause an enemy

to flee.

>

>

>

> (7) On a fifth night, O Deveshi, one should recite the mantra a

myriad times. One should sacrifice a 10th of that and should offer

ghee, fish, sugar cane and camphor - thus one may calm down great

disputes, wars and adversities.

>

> (8) On a great eighth day (of the dark Lunar fortnight) a person1

having bathed, should do sadhana on the best of pedestals. The hero

should recite (the mantra) 10,000 times and should sacrifice a 10th

part of that, giving ghee, camphor, grapes, many betel leaves, goat

flesh and blood. Then one causes healing to occur.

>

>

>

> This thing which is secret is the form of all, my very Self, O

Deveshi, Secret. One should conceal it in the Kali Yuga. On Sundays

etc. one should recite the mantra 10,000 times. Then one becomes

Siddha, there should be no doubt about this! This celestial chapter

is revealed because of Your love. Hide it! It should be concealed,

hide it as You would conceal Your own yoni.

>

>

> Shri Bala Paddhati

>

>

> Now I will declare the Paddhati in its spoken form - the essence of

Shri Bala Tripureshvari, the Giver of Happiness. Having done morning

acts those who are devoted should worship Devi. This puja is

fruitless for those impure at the Three (Twilights).

>

>

>

> Extending from the base of the spine to the top of the head, like a

lotus stem, a brilliant, white, slender thread, one should meditate

on Devi, Giver of Subjugation, Great Good Fortune and Eloquence; as

surrounded by a swarm of black bees; with braided hair garlanded with

flowers; with a face marked with a jewel as her forehead mark; her

mouth sweetly smiling, wearing a beautiful diadem; her head adorned

with pearls and diamonds; with a slender crescent Moon as crest gem;

her three bright eyes effulgent as a swarm of sapphire bees; with

jewelled coiled earrings, the chief of which is as bright as the Sun:

ornamented with shining pearls and gems of dazzling appearance;

around her throat a necklace like a line of bees, beautiful and

bedazzling, surpassing nectar in its beauty; adorned with beautiful

and resplendent garments like the white water of the Ganga in flood;

beautiful, sinuous graceful limbs, scented and sweet like creeping

vines; covered in gold and by other precious metals,

> and by glistening jewels, glittering and bright; her beautiful

feet and toes like red lotuses with their petals; as bright as the

circle of the starry realm (Nakshatras); adorned with pearl-like

blossoms; with her lower left hand holding a book and her upper right

hand dispelling the fears of sadhakas; in her two right hands holding

a rosary and bestowing boons; She herself being of the dazzling

whiteness of snow, milk or the Moon; gracious and charming.

>

>

> Armour of Shri Bala Tripurasundari

>

>

> Shri Bhairavi said - Devadeva, Mahadeva, expander of devotees who

please You, the Armour of Devi is hidden. Speak of this to Me!

>

>

>

> Shri Bhairava -- Listen Devi, I speak of the Armour difficult to

get even for gods. One should never reveal this high secret, which

gives the wished for siddhi to a sadhaka. The Seer of the Armour is

Dakshinamurti. Pankti is the Metre. The Devi is Tripurasundari. Its

application in puja is the four aims of Mankind. She wears a pearl

diadem, coiled earrings, armlets, a necklace of gems; pearl finger

rings; effulgent bracelets and other jewels; a golden hip girdle,

glittering anklets; her navel is adorned with a ruby, and she has a

bracelet of shells, with a Kala of the Moon on her forehead. She

holds a noose, a goad, a book and a rosary in her upper hands and the

other hands.

The pure person with concentrated mind should arise and recite it at

dawn.

or anxious about sin. He is never poor, nor is he vanquished by

death. He dwells in the realm of Shiva, O Devi. I say to You that

this is most certainly true.

how may one obtain the yoga-power of full devotion, O Ocean of Wine 1

If You have compassion for Me Shambhu, reveal that which is well-

hidden!

>

>

>

> Shri Bhairava -- By devotion to Shakti one comes to know the entire

vermilion ocean of Bliss, the hidden essence of Bala. Dear One, I

will speak to You of Her 1,000 Names. One should well hide it, O One

with Thighs like Plantain Stems, it is revealed out of deep and

amorous affection for You. Whoever meditates on how Devi is hymned

immediately gains the whole mass of happiness, and is the cause of

Knowledge.

>

>

>

> (Of this 1,000 Name-Hymn of Shri Bala Sundari, Bhargava is the

Seer, Anushtubh is the Metre, Shri Bala Tripura is the Devata. Aim is

the Seed, Sauh is the Shakti, Klim the linchpin. The application by

reading it are the four aims of Mankind.

Anushtubh the Metre on the mouth; Hail to Shri Bala the Devata in the

Application on all the limbs.

To ashure that there is no wrong impression it is better to state the

sources, especially since there are NOW active internet scams who use

exactly this material and pose as if they are the translators to net

people to give donations for expensives homas etc.

There is no copyrighst on Devi/shakti worship, but what

Mahahrandanatha is trying to say is that we should at least credit

the person or the organisation appropriately. Its their hard work,

to have the work translated and put it in the net for others. Its

just basic courtesy. Isnt this the basic teachings of Santana

Dharma.

 

You take other's work, parade it around the net, to make it look as

if you are the one who did it. Is this right?

 

Instead of just cut and copy the material, why not you summarise it

and give us the link, and tell us what you understand from that

material. It makes a more meaningful learing experience, dont you

agree?

 

You should start looking at copyright/IP Policy. It will give

you an idea, what you can and should not do when you are using

facilities.

 

That is all we are asking!

I do not know if the group in question is one of these fraudulent rip-off

groups, but it could be. Still, couldn't it be that the person who posted was

simply ignorant of the rules?

 

If that is so , then there should be a more polite way of asking them to comply

with those rules, rather than jumping to conclusions and hurting someone's

sentiments. If I mistake not, politeness is also regarded as a Sanatan dharma

teaching.

I agree. Have you ever sit in public places and observe. Actually

observe the people around. Or NO! lets go to the ashram. Sit and

watch. A place where you are supposedly to be nice to everybody, but

it was never practice. At the superficial level, everything look so

nice, but when you go deeper theres a lot of back bitting and

resentment. Because its our human nature. Our emotion fluctuates

like the stock market. What SS presented is the actual scenarios of

our everyday life.

 

Im told : Indians like sight and sound. You see the indian Movie. A

lot of emotions and actions. The more fighting and dancing there is

the better the movie will be. I attended a funeral sometime back.

The aftermath that is where the family is supposedly to sit and

discuss ; what to do next. The bread winner is no more. Who is to

take care of the widow and children etc. I sat abt 50 meters away

from the main hall. What I hear is a lot of screaming and shouting.

I asked another relatives sitting beside me : are they discussing or

argueing. "Beats me!" she replied "sounds like both to me"

 

Its easier to say : Ah! dont take their words seriously. Ignore it

and move on. But that is what life is all about. You go out there,

you face the same thing. You can be soooooooooo nice and polite but

others may not responded the same. What do you do? Move away, fight

back? YOu sit in a restaurant and somebody comes and say : Hey! I

like this place. I sit here before, so you must give up this place

for me. Would you do it?

 

It takes a lot of people to make this world. What is the main focus

of your presence here. I see all these are a form of distractions.

If you are focus in your intention all there are nothing but a

background music. You can just switch it off, do what you must and

move on. To get so uptight and depress, to me is not worth it.

 

Its like a cycle dont you agree. Initially everybody is soooo nice.

Soooooo polite. Then..... you just need a trigger point and

everybody emotions goes berserk... then babaji comes ... to remind

us : hey! be nice will you! and........... we all go. ya! lah. Okay

people be nice.

 

If you look at when the ocean being churn. A lot of friction going

on between the devas and the asuras. What emerge from the ocean. The

good and the bad. Only when you know what to look for, the "churing

I agree. Have you ever sit in public places and observe. Actually

observe the people around. Or NO! lets go to the ashram. Sit and

watch. A place where you are supposedly to be nice to everybody, but

it was never practice. At the superficial level, everything look so

nice, but when you go deeper theres a lot of back bitting and

resentment. Because its our human nature. Our emotion fluctuates

like the stock market. What SS presented is the actual scenarios of

our everyday life.

 

Im told : Indians like sight and sound. You see the indian Movie. A

lot of emotions and actions. The more fighting and dancing there is

the better the movie will be. I attended a funeral sometime back.

The aftermath that is where the family is supposedly to sit and

discuss ; what to do next. The bread winner is no more. Who is to

take care of the widow and children etc. I sat abt 50 meters away

from the main hall. What I hear is a lot of screaming and shouting.

I asked another relatives sitting beside me : are they discussing or

argueing. "Beats me!" she replied "sounds like both to me"

 

Its easier to say : Ah! dont take their words seriously. Ignore it

and move on. But that is what life is all about. You go out there,

you face the same thing. You can be soooooooooo nice and polite but

others may not responded the same. What do you do? Move away, fight

back? YOu sit in a restaurant and somebody comes and say : Hey! I

like this place. I sit here before, so you must give up this place

for me. Would you do it?

 

It takes a lot of people to make this world. What is the main focus

of your presence here. I see all these are a form of distractions.

If you are focus in your intention all there are nothing but a

background music. You can just switch it off, do what you must and

move on. To get so uptight and depress, to me is not worth it.

 

Its like a cycle dont you agree. Initially everybody is soooo nice.

Soooooo polite. Then..... you just need a trigger point and

everybody emotions goes berserk... then babaji comes ... to remind

us : hey! be nice will you! and........... we all go. ya! lah. Okay

people be nice.

 

If you look at when the ocean being churn. A lot of friction going

on between the devas and the asuras. What emerge from the ocean. The

good and the bad. Only when you know what to look for, the "churing

of the ocean" will bring you to the state of "immortality".
