In Devi Stuti - 5th Chapter of DEvI MAhAtmyA - in the several verses (mantrAs) beginning with yA dEvI sarvabhUtESu viSNumAyEti... etc. - is there any secret order or significance in the sequence She is equated to viSHumAya, chEtanA, buddhi, nidrA etc. or is the progression simply random? Has anybody interpreted the order of these equations? I strongly believe there is some secret significance which ultimately leads to a Devi mantrA in the same manner as the first letters of the triSati are said to hold a key to the SodashAkshari. Can anyone enlighten? Or, is it taboo to talk about it at our current level of sAdhanA? Kindly advise. PraNAms to all. Madathil Nair Pranams to All. As per explanations heard from my Masters, Pujya Bhaskararaya has stated that the " twety one verses" beginning with " Ya Devi Sarvabhteshu " together with the repition of Namastasyai Namo Namaha -- " Three times " makes the verse of 24 letters and concludes that these verses are Mantras in GAYATHRI -- metre of the 21 aspects. ( the significance of number 21 is derived from the triple aspect of Ambaaji in each of the seven dimensions of consciousness -- Anna - Prana - Manas - Vijnana - Anand -- cit -- Sat which is equated to the 7 Vyahritis of the Vedas and the 7 lokas of the Purana.) Un quote : Repeating Three times the word Namastasyai has deep spiritual significance and not a case of alliteration or to convince oneself a point.The three aspects is not a mere salutation but salutation, surrender and the receptivity to Ambaom consciousness in the Self with a Total Faith.
