Thank you very much for the information about uchista

Ganapati and his consort neelasaraswati. This is generally observed

by the vAmAcAra tradition. I know some upAsakas

pouring morsels of `jutha' rice (half eaten)on their chests and some

spitting in a view, that `jutha ganapathi' always likes his upasakas

while being `jutha'. They don't at all accept the esoteric meaning

of `uchishta'. In fact we have to understand it as the one who

remains after rejecting every thing saying " nEti nEti " .

 

There will be some similarities in the names of dEvatas

one with another. There is one paricArika of radhA dEvi with the

name of " lalita " , whom we define as " sarvAn atiitya lalati iti

lalita " .

 

If you don't think otherwise, we cannot understand the

secrets of these dEvatas, unless we rise a bit above of the purANic

characters and their relations. If we accept that all the types of

ganNapatis mentioned, are one and the same. He is a brahmacari. He

has two wives by names as, siddhi (R^iddi) and buddhi. They are

lakshmi and saraswati. You might have seen this in

so many pictures. The name " lakSmi gaNapati " is well known.

 

The name " niila saraswati " itself is a combination of two

names as `niila' and `saraswati'.

`niila' means `kALi'. In fact the kALi (rudra sakti) who would be

the only person remaining after the total dissolution, (Bhrasyad

dEvagaNam trasan munigaNam naSyat prapancam layam paSyan nirBhara Eka

Eva viharatyAnanda sAndrO bhavAn) is the brahma Sakti `saraswati'

to start creation of the universe. So both characters are one and

the same. Then the kALi who is considered as the consort of Siva,

now becomes the wife of gaNapathi.

In puruSha sUkta also it is said that " hR*Isca lakShmIsca tE

patnyau " It is said that both pArvati and lakSmi are the wives of

the puruSha. saraswati is a river. She is the wife of `sagara'.

 

" bANatwam vR^iShaBhatwam ardha vapuShA BhAryAtwam AryApate

GONitwam saKitA mR^idanga vahatA cEtyAdi rUpam dadhaU,

twatpAdE nayanArpaNam ca kR^itavAn twad dEha BhAgO harih

pUjyAt pUjya tarah sa Eva hi na cEt kOvA tad anyO~dhikah || "

 

AdisankarAcArya says that the better half of ardha

nArISwara is viShNu.(hari);

BhAryA – Siva`s wife is viShNu.

 

Unless we strictly adopt the `caturvidha'

or `Shadvidha `aikya niShPAlanam' in our upAsana, it cannot be the

correct method. We have to think ourselves as the dEvatA,

what ever be its name. whether it is gaNapati, or viShNu or Siva,

lakShmi, saraswati or any others.

 

Yours always in the service of the mother.

Meru tantra mentions sapta(seven) sarasvati-s:

1)chintAmaNi sarasvatI

2)GYAna sarasvatI

3)nIla sarasvatI - This devata if often synonymous with tArA, and some

variations of her mantra address her as ekajaTe! mahogratAre! etc.,

4)ghaTa sarasvatI

5)kini sarasvatI

6)antarikSha sarasvatI

7)trikUTa sarasvatI

She is a form of Tara Devi the second of dasa mahavidyas.Tara takes the

devotees across an ocean , river, mountain or a difficult situation.

 

Nila Devi also known as nila Saraswathi has a terrible form which is called

Ugra Tara and in this force she is dark blue and is the goddess of speech and

high creativity. She is protective of the devotee and the upasak would have

destructive power of speech and gives the upasak victory in all debates and

contests of knowledge and so it is important for the upasak to stick to Truth

and should not use her to persist his opinions.

 

Her center is the tongue though tara relates primarily to the navel chakra.
