The fact that The Devi worship was given importance may be known by the highest place offered to the Devi in the form of the Gayatri Mantra.
Devi is worshiped in the Surya Mandala, and is compared to the Sun and the Sun worship is the primary duty of every Hindu.
In the Sandhyavandan, the Devi is worshiped as the embodiment of the Veda.
The Srividya is the best path for realizing the Devi or Para Brahman.
In a manner of speaking Sandhyavanadan is also Srividya as it worships the Devi.
On the eve of the Mahabharata War, Lord Krishna advised Arjuna to perform the Devi worship and Arjuna did so.
The Devi worship is mentioned in the following Puranas.
Brahmaanda ,Devi Bhagavatham,Markandeya Puaranam.
In addition Devi worship is described in detail in Agama Rahasyam,Samhita,Yaamalam,Aarnavam, Tantram.
The Soundaryalahari of Adi Shankaracharya is a Devi Tantra Shastra as well.
Fifty two Aksharas of the Devi are embedded among the Soundaryalahari 57 slokas composed by Shankaracharya.( the first 43 are reported to have been written by Lord Ganesh.
Apart from these there are innumerable texts on Devi Upasana.
Lord Shiva, after having divulged the secrets of the Shakti through many texts including Mantra and Tantra,has given the world the Sri Tantra.
This is also called the Sri Pura Upasana, Sri Vidya,
(Chatusshashtya Tantrayaihi.. Soundayralahari)
Dattatreya, considered to be an Avatar of Lord Vishnu, in his Datta Samhita, Thripura Upasana( 18, 000 Slokas).
Parashurama, again another Avatar of Lord Vishnu, abridged this and wrote the Parasurama Kalpa Sutram, in 6000 Slokas.
Parasurama’s disciple Sumedhas wrote another sutra, showing the Sutra as a conversation between Lord Rama and Datatareya.
This is now called The Parashurama Kalpasutra.
This is the ultimate authority on the Devi Upasana.
Bhaskararaya’s Disciple Umananda Nathar had wriiten Kithyothsava,an explanation of Parasuramkalpasutra.( Rameswara Sastry, who came after UmanandhaNathar had written “Sowbhaagyasudhodhayam.”
There is no hymn superior than Gayatri Mantra, ‘na gaayatriyaah paramam japam’ .
Now in the Gayatri Mantra we have the mention of Gayatri,Savitri and Sarasvati.
“In invoking Gayatri and praying to be present, we say,
Gayathrrem Aavaahayami,
Savitreem Aavahayaami,
Sarasvatheem Aavahayaami’
Why?
Gayatri Matha
There are three levels of Speech.
First when we think.
If one analyses , when one thinks, he/she would find an echo in the mind, some times quite loud, this is especially so in the case of those who perform Japa, and Devi Upasana.
This applies to our day-to-day thoughts as well.
The implication is that the Universal Sabda, Sound, is being brought forth into individual level and the
One who makes it possible is Gayatri.
This is level One.
The next is as soon as the thoughts are formed,it sits as it were, in the spot just beneath the tongue.
The words are not formed at the physical level and they lie dormant.
We have heard and we also know at times on seeing or while coming into contact with something which we think is new, we say,
‘I Know,it is at the tip of my tongue, it will come’
This is the place of Savitri” the unformed words, with the potential to become words.
This the level where the Speech Impaired people’s impediment lies.
This Mantra has other significance in terms of Mantra and Tantra Shastra and I hope to write on it.

I am posting the latest available list of The Members of The Illuminati, the Organist that has a say in the
running of the World.
Illuminati Organization Chart
“Below is the 300 names which make up the Illuminati Committee of 300. The Committee of 300 is the real world government. I am not sure where this list is from. It is very likely by Dr. John Coleman! How accurate is this list? I have no idea. Some names are IMO correct: Soros, Brzezinski, George HW Bush, Kissinger.
I am used to hearing people of my earlier generation and many from my generation as well, speak highly of the British Rule in India, about British Honesty and Fair play,
Bringing in the Industrial Revolution to India and introducing English in India.Each of these statements need rebuttals for the impressions are not correct and the motives behind these acts are criminal in Nature.
They have invaded all countries that are found in the Map today, excepting 22!
# As is expected of Anglophiles and British pechant for hiding crimes, some Links I have quoted may not work now.See the Sites, you shall understand what I am saying.
Before I start rebutting these points one by one, let me furnish some information about the Genocide of Indians by the British.
We are aware of one Jallianwala Bagh .
We do not know about more serious Genocide by the British in India,
Now Britain claims it is a Champion of Freedom and a friend of the downtrodden and we respect them!
The news was obviously blacked out by the Anglo Media.
Excerpts.
”
Educated Indians are aware of the ghastly 2-century imposition of British colonialism on India. However, because history is generally written by non-scientists, most Indians are utterly unaware of the horrendous human cost (1.8 billion violent and non-violent avoidable deaths in the period 1757-1947).
Under British rule, Indian cultivators were forced to produce for export, and heavily taxed while denied necessary infrastructure, like roads, to move their products to market. As one observer noted, “In this predicament, the cargo of cotton lies sometimes for weeks on the ground, and the merchant is ruined.” Shown: Indian and European merchants trade at the Bombay cotton market, ca. 1870.
Th British deliberately caused famines in India, in order to force the indigenous population into relief works, such as road-building. The tenant-laborer, writes Carey, “is mercilessly turned from his land and his mud hut, and left to die on the highway.” Here, Indians on their way to the relief works, published in the LondonNews, 1874…
Queen Victoria, Empress of India, ruled over a people broken by poverty, inhumane treatment, famines, and despair. As one British author wrote: “And this occured in British India—in the reign of Victoria the First. Nor was the event extraordinary and unforeseen. Far from it: 1835-36 witnessed a famine in the northern provinces; 1833 beheld one to the eastward; 1822-23 saw one in the Deccan. They have continued to increase in frequency and extent under our
sway for more than half a century.”
During the terrible famine of 1838, according to one reporter, millions of pounds of rice and other edible grains were exported from Calcutta, to feed the kidnapped Indian Coolies, who had been sent to the Mauritius, to work in the fields.
These are just the figures of the British-man-made famines, it does not include the Epidemics induced by Famines, Anglo-Indian Wars, Indians killed fighting for the British, Freedom Fighters martyred by the British.
If all these are included the figures reaches over 1.8 Billion mark (ignored by Anglo Media)

“The “avoidable deaths” (from violence, deprivation and deprivation-exacerbated disease) in British India totalled 1.5 billion (or 1.8 billion if you include the so-called Native States).
Major British-imposed genocidal events in India included the Great Bengal Famine (10 million dead, 1769-1770), successive famines that killed scores of millions of Indians up to the World War 2 Bengal Famine (6-7 million dead in Bengal and surrounding provinces; see the recent BBC broadcast involving me, Economics Nobel Laureate Professor Amartya Sen and others: http://www.open2.net/thingsweforgot/bengalfamine_programme.html ), the estimated 10 million Indians murdered by the British in reprisals for the so-called Indian Mutiny (in which 2,000 British were killed) and the underlying British-imposed condition of “living on the edge” that was responsible for most of the “avoidable deaths” (see my book “Jane Austen and the Black Hole of British History.
