Matrika, the Universal Mother- ज्ञानाधिष्ठानं मातृका

 


 JNAN ADHISHTAAN MATRIKA

ज्ञानाधिष्ठानं मातृका

The Siva Sutras teach that Matrika, the Universal Mother,is the master director of the triple knowledge consisting of Anava mala, Mayiyamala and Karmamala. When Universal energy is known in a correct way, it is Svatantrya Sakti,When it is known in a wrong way it is energy of illusion and it is called Maya Sakti. So Matrika is both the one who binds and the one who frees you.

It is the Un- understood Mother that is the basis of the limited knowledge. She ( Matrika) brings about knowledge in a limited form, e.g. ”I am imperfect”(anavamala), “I am thin or fat”(mayiya mala), “I am doing an engineering job (karma mala) and by penetration in the minds of the listener, brings about a feeling of sorrow, pride, joy, and passion.

Therefore Matrika Sakti is the Hetu (cause) of all creation and limitation, and She is always seated authoritatively, in the midst of all this confusion and ignorance ,reduction and limitation, as the Queen Mother who is waiting to be re-cognized by the sadhaka.

The most amazing miracle is that by studying and practising Shaiva sacred literature like Siva Sutras. Prtyabhijna and Vijnanbhairava, we get to the ultimate Transcendent world of Shiva's Divinity, through the recognition of Shakti pervasive in our own manifest world!
Aum Namah Shivaye.
~ Shail Gulhati: Shiva and Mysticism.

ज्ञानाधिष्ठानं मातृका
शिव सूत्र सिखाते हैं कि मातृका, सार्वभौम माता, अनव माला, मइयामाला और कर्ममाला से युक्त त्रिगुण ज्ञान की मास्टर निर्देशक हैं। जब सार्वभौमिक ऊर्जा को सही तरीके से जाना जाता है, तो यह स्वातंत्र्य शक्ति होती है, जब इसे गलत तरीके से जाना जाता है तो यह भ्रम की ऊर्जा होती है और इसे माया शक्ति कहा जाता है। तो मातृका वह है जो आपको बांधती है और जो आपको मुक्त करती है।
अज्ञेय माता ही सीमित ज्ञान का आधार है। वह (मातृका) सीमित रूप में ज्ञान लाती है, उदा। "मैं अपूर्ण हूँ" (अनावमाला), "मैं पतला या मोटा हूँ" (मैय्या माला), "मैं एक इंजीनियरिंग नौकरी (कर्म माला) कर रहा हूँ और श्रोता के मन में प्रवेश करके, दुःख, गर्व की भावना लाता है। , खुशी और जुनून।
इसलिए मातृका शक्ति सभी सृष्टि और सीमा का हेतु (कारण) है, और वह हमेशा आधिकारिक रूप से, इस सभी भ्रम और अज्ञानता, कमी और सीमा के बीच, रानी मां के रूप में बैठी है, जो कि रानी द्वारा फिर से पहचाने जाने की प्रतीक्षा कर रही है। साधक
सबसे आश्चर्यजनक चमत्कार यह है कि शिव सूत्र जैसे शैव पवित्र साहित्य का अध्ययन और अभ्यास करना। प्रत्यक्षाभिज्ञ और विज्ञानभैरव, हम शिव की दिव्यता के परम पारलौकिक संसार में पहुँचते हैं, शक्ति की मान्यता के माध्यम से जो हमारे स्वयं के प्रकट संसार में व्याप्त है!
ओम् नमः शिवाय।

EMPTY YOUR HEART

 


EMPTY YOUR HEART
Did you know that you are like a beautiful bench in a park. Empty your heart of the rush
and sit awhile with your own timeless Self.

NANDI'S GAME
Nandi loudly declared, “My Lord, are you ready to play a game with Her Majesty, Queen Parvati?”
“Hmm… okay,” said Shiva.
“lets play an ancient game, my Lord. One, that I have no doubt you will enjoy playing. It is called, simply, ‘Find Me’.”
This ring will show which one of you found the other through love,” said Nandi, putting the ring into the milk plate. and then added loudly, “Aum Aim Hreem Kleem Chamundaye! Aum Triyambakam yajamahe!

SHIVA PARVATI- THE FIRST MEETING
Shiva noticed how extraordinarily beautiful Parvati was, when She spoke animatedly, completely absorbed in the argument She was making. He smiled. “I guess you have a point there, young lady.”
“And?” Parvati smiled back.

MOTHER OF ALL REDRESSAL: DURGA

 


MOTHER OF ALL REDRESSAL: DURGA
“Arise, O Yogini! You have prayed to me in the deepest solitude for more than five hundred years. You have not been bothered about hunger, nor have you let the changing seasons, the blistering sun, the thundering rains, or the biting cold affect you in any way. Not once have your lips stopped chanting, ‘Aum Aim Hreem Kleem Chamundaye Vichaye Namah.’ So ask, O Devi, what do you want?”
“Aum Aim Hreem Kleem Chamundaye Vichaye Namah,” repeated Mena.

SHIVA THE YOGI

 


SHIVA THE YOGI
Even as an adolescent, Shiva was of strong built. And soon He started becoming aware of His physique. Every morning, as He bathed under a favourite waterfall, He would take time to see His own reflection in the still waters of the pool. Sometimes He posed in techniques, which could be described as a yoga of flexing. The animals laughed, even as their doe-eyes widened in loving admiration.

SHIVA, DRUMMER OF MY SOUL

 


SHIVA, DRUMMER OF MY SOUL
Shiva!
drummer of my soul,
this is no dream,
ask my heart, where you lurk,
the woods are green.
And I have danced!
What of youth,
and life
and being
I am your very breath,
O King, of Kings,
Lead me gently now,
This world your dancing ring.
~ From 'Shiva poetry '
