Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 JAY MA SHAKTI In message 5262 N.K.Sundaram mentioned that there are 3 types of Sathussashti Yoginis. What is the meaning of the word "sathussasthi"? What are the three different types of Yoginis, why are the 3 groups different from another? What means "lyes (lies?) under Mahakali"? In message 5259 there is mention of "the higher Yoginis" and the "Adhara Shaktis". Why are some of the Yoginis higher than the others and in which sense are they higher? What is the meaning of the word "adhara"? Are there more than 64 Yoginis? Is there a group of Yoginis for each of the Mahavidyas?

It is a tamil way of saying the sanskrit cathuh ShaShThi. It is "lies" I think. > > In message 5259 there is mention of "the higher Yoginis" and the "Adhara Shaktis". > Why are some of the Yoginis higher than the others and in which >sense are they higher? There are some yoginis which serve, or are in command of other yoginis so in that sense maybe we can say some are higher yoginis. > What is the meaning of the word "adhara"? Means base, or support. Plz see dictionary at sanskrit.gde.to for more. > > Are there more than 64 Yoginis? Please refer to Shri Vijaya Ganapathi's and others reply to the following post, for more info on yoginis. /message/5262 Rgds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
