O Queen of Chastity! ViriNci goes back to the five elements; Hari

ceases to exist; KinAsa meets with destruction; Kubera perishes; the

array of the ever-wakeful eyes of Mahendra is also closed [for

ever]; in this great deluge, this Lord of Thine [alone] has His

diversion.

 

This stanza extols the chastity of the Devi, in virtue of which her

husband has not merely spared the general holocaust of gods, but

strangely enough diverts himself amidst such wierd environment.

ViriNci, Hari, KinAsa, ie Yama [the god of death], Indra and other

gods, who are Amara-s according to tradition, meet with their death,

during the MahApralaya, but the Devi's Lord alone survives

unconcerned.

Can you please give me tips on how to do Sadhana for this Yantra? I am unable to obtain Gold Plated Yantra, so can I have it drawn on Cardboard or Copper or any such material?
