Lalita Mahabhattarika as Kamadayini and Jnanadayini

[Guest guest]

Dear brothers and sisters,

 

Recently I have come across an interesting

posture of Lalita Mahabhattarika as Kamada or Kamadayini-one who

fulfills desires.The Great Cosmic soverign is seated in the simhasana

with folded rightleg and the leftleg put frontwards. She is red

complexioned with Pasa, Angusa, sugarcane bow and five

tanmatras.Images and Pictures of Rajarajesvari seated in this

posture are rare. It is believed that worshipping Devi in this

posture with Lalitasahasranama shall bestow positive results.

 

There is another posture of SriRajarajesvari with folded left leg and

right leg put frontwards.Other symbols are same. Images and pictures

are very popular unlike the former one.Devi in this posture is known

as Jnanadayini or bestower of Para and aparavidyas- spiritual and

material knowledge.

 

I request comments from the Shakta fraternity
