    The Sri Vidya Article I did not Write How It Came into Being?

    # I am aware what I am writing below may make one wonder about my Sanity. Yet I am doing it as I want to know the answer.

    Even though I teach on Spirituality, I am essentially an Agnostic and will not accept anything easily. This beats me.I have checked all possible sources from where the article I could have come from , Article drafts,Translation history,Published articles , scoured my mobile storage, all my Drives.. Of No Avail.

    I have been conducting Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam , Sri Vishnu Sahasranamam , Soundaryalahari ,Abhirami anthadi, Vedic Sukta and Sundarakandam interpretation classes for over a year.
    There have been some unexplained events over the past three days.
    About two days ago, I was instructed to share some information with some selected students , which I did.
    I woke up at about 545 AM IST this morning( 1September 2023) and had an urge to look at my mobile . In the morning, I usually look at the Mobile after cup of coffee.
    The following article on Sri Vidya in Tamil was found on mobile lock screen.
    I didn’t write this. Though I have fair knowledge of Sri Vidya Upasna some information found in the article was new to me.The podcast attached to the article returns with 404!, Not found!
    The information in the article is very informative, :however typos and grammatical errors are also found in some places.
    I would be very grateful if the devs would let me know about this.
    Below is the article, translated from the original article in Tamil.

    The translated Article. Translation by Yandex Translate. I have not attempted to proof read even! It was deliberate.

    The Article.

    Primary source,
    Lalitha Sahasranama.
    Some of these texts are listed below –

    Mother Mahamaya is the one who covers the world with the veil of ignorance, removes the veil of mercy and makes the whole game of creation.
    It’s a cosmic game she does for God, her Leela.Her play can be Seen in the Moon.
    The moon of that space is called Chitakasa Chandrika.
    Sources of Sri Vidya.

    Tantric texts such as Rudra Yamala explain Srividya. The Kadgagamala Stotram is a map and worship of the Sri Chakra.
    . In addition to this, many of the oral traditions have Sri Kula texts as collections or as part of the mantra Shastra texts, such as the mantra mahodati, the mantra maharnava and the Sakta texts.
    Through meditation, one’s consciousness merges into the object of meditation and perceives the Atman.
    The difference between the meditator and the object of meditation is the state of dissolution, which is called samadhi or sayujya.
    During meditation one also notices his own presence, different Envelopes of consciousness.

    There are five Kosas: Annamaya (body), pranamaya (life-being), Manomaya (mind), vignanamaya (intellect-knowledge) and Anandamaya (causality – Bliss).
    The first is blunt, the next three are subtle, and the fifth is causal.
    The God of reason dwells in all beings with his consort Maya. She hides the formless form of the divine Brahman.
    In Sadhana one himself (by performing mantra JaPa) makes the sound sound in a rhythm, with vibrations of his nadis and breathing.
    This can create a deep impression.
    This way of connecting the individual with the universe is called Mantra yoga.

    There are six centers (chakras).Kundalini is said to have initially curled up in Muladhara.
    Shes a mother. She also crosses these rivers from the Mooladhara at the base of the spine to the Ajna on the forehead, and then to the crown of the head (Sahasrara), where the personal consciousness completely merges with the cosmic consciousness.
    When you focus on the unity of Shiva and Shakti, it unites Saivism and Sakta. (Iconus)
    If one meditates on Devi as a manifestation of Brahman, the cosmic soul, it is Advaita.
    Because the spells are magically locked, it’s magical

    How to reach.

    Railway Station/Bus station. Pune,

    Shivpur is 23 Km from Pune, 150 kM from Mumbai.

    Airport.Mumbai.

    The story goes that Qamar Ali was born into a family of middle-class Moslems whose men-folk prided themselves on their muscular prowess. Qamar Ali, unlike his aggressive older brothers, was introspective and gentle. When he was scarcely six, he became a disciple of a Sufi Pir (great teacher) who lived nearby, and spent his days in meditation and fasting. Before long, throngs of devotees began to flock to his doorstep drawn by the young Sufi mystic’s compassion and miraculous powers of healing.

    Qamar Ali died in his late teens but as he lay on his deathbed, he requested that a circular stone weighing 200 pounds, be placed near his tomb. According to the legend, he said: “If eleven men place their right index fingers under the stone and then jointly call my name, I will cause it to rise higher than their heads. Otherwise, neither singly nor together will they be able to move it more than two feet off the ground. Let it be a symbol,” he said to his brothers, “a reminder of my message that spiritual power is greater than brute strength. As Allah the Merciful, has loved you, so should you love all men of every caste and creed. For we are all brothers on the same journey. Think of this when you call my name and raise the stone.”

  • Byse Unique Solstice Indicator, Stonehenge Of India

    We are quite familiar with the Stonehenge in England.

    Stonehenge ,England.

    Stonehenge is a prehistoric monument in Wiltshire, England, about 2 miles (3 km) west of Amesbury and 8 miles (13 km) north of Salisbury. One of the most famous sites in the world, Stonehenge is the remains of a ring of standing stones set within earthworks. It is in the middle of the most dense complex of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments in England, including several hundred burial mounds.

    Archaeologists believe it was built anywhere from 3000 BC to 2000 BC. Radiocarbon dating in 2008 suggested that the first stones were raised between 2400 and 2200 BC,[2] whilst another theory suggests that bluestones may have been raised at the site as early as 3000 BC..

    There is little or no direct evidence for the construction techniques used by the Stonehenge builders. Over the years, various authors have suggested that supernatural or anachronistic methods were used, usually asserting that the stones were impossible to move otherwise. However, conventional techniques, using Neolithic technology as basic as shear legs, have been demonstrably effective at moving and placing stones of a similar size. Proposed functions for the site include usage as an astronomical observatory or as a religious site.

    Another idea has to do with a quality of the stones themselves: Researchers from the Royal College of Art in London have discovered that some of the monument’s stones possess “unusual acoustic properties” —when they are struck they respond with a “loud clanging noise”.

    Byse, Indian Stonehenge.

     

    Located in Byse village in Karnataka these Megaliths structures dates back to 1000 BC and have been found to be aligned with certain Solar and Stellar movements including solstices andequinoxes.


    Megalithic structures have been found at a site called Nilaskal Byana which mean “the field with the standing stones”. In 1975, the site was reported as containing several menhirs (single standing stones) arranged in no particular pattern. In 2007, the researchers from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) and Manipal University surveyed the site and discovered 26 megalithic constructions….

    According to researcher, this megalithic construction were most probably used for astronomical observations at a site in South India. Using computer simulation, the researchers concluded that at least one of the stone alignments at Byse has “strong astronomical associations”. The standing stones are aligned to the north, east, south and west directions and also match the two solstices and equinoxes. While the two solstices mark the longest and shortest days of the year, an equinox occurs when the sun is in the same plane as the earth’s equator. The solstices, together with the equinoxes, are connected with the seasons.

    A unique feature of this observatory compared to those in Europe is that it does not have a central location from which observations can be made, but involves multiple sightlines with shadows of several stones falling on other marking stones during days of astronomical importance..

    A motorbike involved in an accident,taken to the Police station, returned to the accident spot the next Day.

    One day Om Banna showed miracle to his grandmother by appearing at night and saying I am not dead, I am alive. He also requested his grandmother to donate two bigha land to Hemraj Purohit which was done. They say only after six months of death Om Banna started showing miracles to village people and faith developed among them. Many truck drivers driving at National Highway 65 said they felt that someone sitting with them during night hours and many stories how Om Banna saved few accidents.

    Om Banna died at the age of 23 or 24 years and was the only son of his father. His son Maha Prakrami Singh is 23 years old now was born two months after that accident. Late Om Banna grandmother is no more alive but father Shree Jog Singh stay at Chotila village three km from the shrine.

    Eight days after Diwali there is huge gathering of devotees at this location. The location where currently worship is done was actually land for cattles to graze but as it was an accident place and number of devotees was increasing the land was transferred to Om Banna’s father and equal size of land was donated by Om Banna’s father for cattle graze little away from shrine. Last 20 years motorcycle was near to Jaal tree but as NH 65 widening was going on nine months back it was shifted little inside close to fields.

    Buses from Jodhpur Bus Depot for Pali, Sanderao, Abu Road will drop you at Om Banna.

    A small dharamshala is there if you want to stay at night or a stop in a day for prayers and a little rest.

    We went to Chotila village to meet Om Banna’s father. He is old but welcoming guest is his priority. We were offered water, tea and talks for hours. We saw a 1962 model Russian make tractor not in use since Banna death was purchased for Rs. 13,100 only. Om Banna son is currently studying at college. We met him at shrine location. We were showed an article about a film in making under Koyal Film Production banner Mumbai very shortly. In short it was a new experience.
