Count of devas

[Guest guest]

Pranams to all

 

In LS, it says chatushashti kotiyoginigaNa sevithA. There are incidents about

how BhaskarAchAryA gave proofs of these devatAs along with their shasthrayAs,

prayogha vidhi etc.

 

But in tamil scriptures, we see quite often " mupathumukkodi devargal " as the

count of devas. ( thirty three crores of devAs). Is there a link between these?

Are these 33 crore devas " generic " ( for want a better expression) and the 64

crore devAs, specific to Ammavaru?

 

praNAms to Her

With my limited knowledge, I interpret the meaning as follows.

 

According to Advaita philosophy, Jeevathma and Paramathma are one

and the same. God is in everyone and everyone is a God. So I think

symbolically it represents the whole population.

 

Also in Srividya Tradition, when we do Sri Chakra Puja ( the method

followed by my Guru ), one of the important procedure is Viraja

Homa, where one has to imagine in shedding their physical body and

realize that Devi is no different from us i.e., we don't need to

seek Devi outside and it is only part of us.

 

So considering all these, I feel these numbers represent the whole

population depending on the time frame when these scriptures came

into existence.

 

Sri Matre Namaha !

Namasthe,

 

Ambaaji is worshipped by 576 crores yoginies as the mantra is " Maha

Chatushasti kotiyoginigana sevitha " . Maha means nine and in sri chakra there

are nine Avaranas and each avarana is surrounded by 64 crores of yoginies

and therefore 9 multiplied by 64 crores totals to 576 crores.

regards

ganapathy

Sri Matre Namaha. In my view (which could be totally wrong) Devas and

Yoginis are different. Siddhas, Charanas, Kinnaras, Kimpursuhas,

Yakshas, Gandharvas,...they all are different from Devas. Similarly

Yoginis are also different.

 

I hope some one more knowledgeable will come with more details.

 

Regards.

OM SRI MATHRE NAMAH

Yoginis and Devas are entirely different.From my limited study of the Puranas,

Devas are the residents of DevaLoka , while the Ganas are attendants and Yoginis

are not Devas but they are independant but at the sane time they function as

Ganas do to Maheswara to Ambaal

In the words of MOTHER -- there are countless categories of gods, who are all on

different planes, some very close to man,others very close to supreme,with many

intermediaries.There are gods who in many ways which are inferior to man

although they have infinitely more powerful ( I guess these must be Kshudra

Devathas).

 

There are gods of the Overmind who are the greater creators of the earth --

Until now. there are the gods of the vedas who are mentioned in everything that

has come down from rishies and there are the gods of the supermind, those who

are going to manifest on earth.although of course they exist from all eternity

on their own plane.

 

Mother further says while it is good and necessary to possess all the divine

qualities that these gods represent and symbolise but for one who wants union

with the Supreme, such as an aspiration of realization calling these gods cannot

be sufficient and that is why Sri Aurobindo called Ambaa (Kali) to give him the

power to go beyond them and ambaa's pwer is greater than that of all god's in

her creation and to unite with Her means to become more vast, more complete.
