☀️51 Shakthi Peetas and Remedial Measures🕉️

“Ya Devi sarvabhutesu buddhi rupena samsthithaa

Namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namo namaha”

To that Goddess who dwells within all beings in the form of intellect, I bow again and again

Devi Mahatmaya-CH.5 V.20

Daksha one of the four sons of Brahma and Aditi with his wife Prasuti bored 24 Shakti’s and the 24th Shakthi married Rudra.

Soon after they marriage Daksha organised a massive Yagna inviting all his 23 son in laws, the Gods, Rishis and other divine beings everyone got up to greet Daksha but Rudra did not get up , the seeds of conflict was sown.

Soon Brahma declared Daksha as the main Prajapati, inflated Daksha decided to perform the Brihaspati Sava sacrifice the biggest Yagna of all with all pomp and glory.

All the Gods rishis and demigods were invited but Sati and Shiva were uninvited.

Against her husbands wishes Sati insisted on going to the Yagna, she reached the ceremony she found out she was deliberately humiliated, feeling sad she ended her life jumping into the sacrificial fire.

Enraged Shiva after killing Daksha and maiming most of the gods took the body of Sati and started to perform the Rudra Tandav the dance of destruction.

Vishnu had to interfere to save the world he with his Sudarshan Chakra cut Sati body into 51 parts (Some say 108 parts). Each body part fell at a place and became consecrated as Shakthi Peetha. Shiva calmed down and returned to mount Kailash.

These 51 Shakthi Peetas are hidden in esoteric and Tantric secrets. Each has deep meaning and significance.

The body part is a hint at the remedial measures, the Shakti and Bhairav are other hints at the power of the Shakthi Peetas.

Taking the astrological Kalpurusha Tatwa and Prakirthi Bhava the zodiac signs was decided and the Nakshatra symbology is based on Vamana Purana Nakshatra Sareera involving the body of Lord Vishnu.

🏵️Principle one: Individuals who have the zodiac as 1,5,9, houses with no natural malefics tenanting can visit that Shakthi Peeta to strengthen the Bhava

Example 1

Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn Lagnas can visit Jwalaji Shakthi Peetha if no natural malefics are in Taurus

🌼Principle Two: If Moon is not 6th, 8th, 12th lords the Moon sign can also be taken as the auspicious Sign

Example 2

Leo or Aries Moons signs (Janma Rashis ) can visit Kiriteshwari Devi Shakthi Peetha to strengthen Aries sign

💮Principle Three: The Moon, Athmakaraka or a Yogakarakas Nakshatra can also be taken as deciding the correct and beneficial Shakthi Peeta

Example 3:

Moon or the AK IN Aridra nakshatra the Chamundeswari Shakthi Peetha in Mysore can be visited to strengthen the planet in Aridra

🏵️Principle Four

Individuals having health problems can visit the particular place of the body part to strengthen or have a particular bhava healed and cured

Art of Rajeshwar Nyalapalli  -  Manikyamba Devi with Sri Chakra [Shakthi is worshipped as Manikyamba Devi in Draksharamam, an important Maha Shakthi Peetha] 

🕉️  

Devi (at the time of creation) stamps her foot on the sky first, without removing the same, places another on the Sun, simultaneously places one more on the Earth, one on the Moon etc. Is it not strange and surprising? ॥ 15.3॥

The poet is suggesting the all-pervasive glory of the deity. Normally beings capable of walking put one step forward after lifting the previous one; steps take a successive order of lifting end placing. This is a rule with the limited, but the unlimited power of the Devi makes her presence felt everywhere. To be on earth does not make her to vacate her presence on the sky. The alamkaras are vibhavana and virodhabhasa. ॥ 15.3॥

Oh, Mother! Just as gold is integral to golden ornaments, clay is the essence of all articles. Like pot made of clay, the wise find you as the true essence of all things present in the universe, without exception. ॥ 15.4॥

Omnipresence of the divine principle is understood by the wise, which actually is the mystery of the universe. ॥ 15.4॥
