"kula" and Lalitha Sahasranama

[Guest guest]

o Sub : LALITHA SAHASRANAMA AND THE WORD " KULA "

 

 

 

 

 

Kula is the power of Brahman and Akula is called the Brahman. He who knows

the Atma to be essentially Kula and Akula is called kulina. (Kularnava Tantra.)

 

 

 

This word Kula has been used in different contexts with different meanings in

LS -- kuleswari- Kulamruthaika rasika - kulasanketha Palini -- Kulangana --

Kulandasta-- Kulayogini-- Akula--Kulakundalaya -- Kulsrupini -- Kuloothirna.

 

 

 

 

 

Let us look at the meanings of these holy manthras.

 

 

 

AKULA :

 

 

 

Kula also means parents, family etc and Ambal is beyond all these and hence she

is Akula and she is beyond birth.

 

Akula is also a place on the top of the Sushumna Nadi in Sahasrara.

 

The opposite of kulachara is known as Akulachara, which is commonly known as

Samyachara.

 

 

 

KULA YOGINI ;

 

 

 

She is also known as Kula yogini connected with Kula worship. The other meaning

is that She can be directly perceived through the Hatha yoga and other types of

yogas which involves the six charkas from Mooladhara to Sahasrara.( the

cinjugation of the akula and kula ). It also refers to contemplation of Sri

Lalitha devi in Sri Chakra -- prayers connected with the ways and procedures of

Kulachara. She who blesses a jiva to be born in a good family for a yoga.

 

 

 

Kulasankethapaalini

 

 

 

She, who guards the secrets of Kula. The kula is also the shakthi, which sleeps

in a secret place in the body (kundalini). All matters, science and secrets in

the tantras that deal with Kundalini -- like why it sleeps and it should be

aroused and once aroused what sidhies one gets and what happens when the

kundalini travels towards sahasraras --which are explained not directly but

ambiguously in a doubtful manner, solely to protect the secrets of the science

and technology that deals with the raising of kundalini ,so that only the

eligible in the Kula gets this knowledge. She chooses this eligibility. In devi

Upasana there are three types of secrets -- relating to Chakra, relating to

Manthras, relating to Pujas.

 

 

 

Kulangana ;

 

 

 

She is also known as Kulangana. She, who is as a Kula Woman. She, who guards the

secrets and commendation of the good family like a Chaste Woman. Just like a

chaste woman who is normally not apparently visible but at the same close to her

known persons, Ambaal veils herself in the screen of Avidhya -- The Maya. The

Srividya upasana is a highly confidential one. This should not be revealed to

anyone undeserving or the unworthy. She can be known only through Deekshas done

as prescribed for knowing Her and Hence She is Kulangana.( Kularnavam and kulpa

sutras ).

 

 

 

Kowlini :

 

 

 

The aspect of the united form of Shiva And Shakthi is Kowlini. Kula means

shakthi and Akula is shiva and the unity is Kowlini. The ONE TRUTH, which looks

DUALISTIC, and the relationship between the two, which has to be perceived, is

the Knowledge of Kowla. The Srichakra that has Shiva Chakras and the Shakthi

charkas independently and in also united in the intersection is also known as

kowlini. The Kula shakthi is always the Dynamic one and the shiva shakthi is the

static one. If the static shakti has to be united with the dynamic one . only

the dynamic one has to reach the static one and the matters connected with this

is Kowlam. One of the Vaakdevi aspect of Sri Lalitha is also known as Kowlini.

In the external worship of Srichakra the three aspects of worship -- the upasaka

- Devi - Devotional worship is also known as Kowlam and therefore Kowlini.

 

 

 

Kulanthastha :

 

 

 

She, who is in Kula. She who is as trichotomy in Mathru (an instument), Mana (

intellect), and Meya ( the thing which is measured.) She is who can be known

through the Kula tantras. In all good families, two things would be well known -

one the family and the family tree and She who is as Shakthi in SUCH families

found in every house,street,village or nations. The Shushmna Nadi is also known

as Kula and she sleeps here in every person as Kundalini.

 

 

 

Kulamruthaikarasika :

 

 

 

The amruth or the nector which flows through out the body when the kundalini

reaches sahasrara is known as KULAMRUTHAM . In that state all the dualities

liquidates and you are the supreme bliss and in that state one remains with the

body only 21 days without any body consciousness. (When paramahamsa was in that

state, his Guru fed him compulsorily to bring him back to the body

consciousness, solely for the benefit of mankind, but for this Guru the humanity

would have missed a great Sri Vidya sadhak and an incarnation of Devi) our

temporary happiness of the senses is also but to a only fraction of a million

of the kulamrutham, where as the Yogi gets the full benfit of it as the ultimate

Happiness or the eternal bliss. This state is the Nirvikalpa Samaadhi.

 

 

 

Kulootheerna :

 

 

 

We saw the different meanings of Kula and here the kula means that the She

cannot be perceived through the instruments of the integrated Indriyaas. That is

to say -- She can be realised only through bhakthi,Bhawana and Knowledge.

 

 

 

Kulaeshwari :

 

 

 

She who is the Eshwari for the Kula. And pl refer to the meaning of

kulanthastha also.

 

 

 

Kulakundaalaya :

 

 

 

She who resides in the Kulakundala - that is the place where the kundalini

resides. Also cross refer to Sondarya Lahari 10th Shloka -- Avaabya swom

Bhumim…….. in this context.

 

 

 

Kowla marga tatpara sevitha :

 

 

 

She, who is worshipped in the traditions of Kowla -- the traditions of Kula

upasana. Which includes sacrifices also. The Srividya upasana has three margas

which are the Samaya Marga- Kowla Marga-- Mishra Marga. The vaideeka marga has

been followed by the Suka,Vashishta,Sanka,Sananda and the Santhkumara all Brahma

Rishies.This is known as Samyachara. The Mishra marga has been dealt in the

eight tantras chandrakala, jyothsnaavathi, kalanidhi, kularnava, kuleshwari,

bhuvaneshwari, Barhaspadya and durvasa tantras. These tantras also deal with

Kowla marga. These marga also contains the procedures and practices of the

VAMACHARA.which is also equally accepted by Devi ( pl see meaning in LS

samayachara tatpara and Savyapa Savya Margastha ).

 

The kowla Marga is supported by the 64 tantras. The main purpose is to bring any

type of person down trodden spiritually, only if the person has grace of Devi,

to higher spiritual planes with the use of Avaidic substances -- the Pancha

makaras. I think we have dealt enough on these pancha makaras and vamachara on

the earlier mails. The purpose of these substances is to also slowly de addict

the person from these lower substances through control and put him to a higher

spiritual orbit.
