Mantra Sadhana & Benefits
The radiance of Mother Divine (Sri Mata) ruddy cheeks that rubies are no match for them even when polished as mirrors
The Divine Mother, cheeks as surpassing the reflective quality of polished rubies, symbolizes the dual nature of individuals, reflecting both their virtues and vices. The color red here represents compassion, illustrating how Devi extends her compassion equally to saints and sinners alike, treating all as equals. The entire illusory world is like a city seen in a mirror,” highlighting the concept of the world as a reflection, similar to how Devi reflects the dual aspects of our nature.
The five fundamental senses—sight, taste, smell, touch, and hearing—are said to be connected to the five subtle elements in Vedanta. These five senses are represented by individual arrows that are shot from a bow, which stands for the mind. When the bend of the bow is increased, the speed with which the arrows are released also increases
Vedic Mantra Wisdom:
“PADMARAAGA SHILAADARSHA PARIBHAAVI KAPOLABHOOH” describes the Mother’s cheeks as glowing and soft, reminiscent of the rosy hue of rubies, symbolizing compassion. The term ‘Kapola’ in Sanskrit, meaning cheek, encapsulates key aspects of evolution: ‘Ka’ for Coordination, ‘Pa’ for Independence, ‘O’ for Pleasure, and ‘La’ for Beauty. This represents the essence of evolution, highlighting the balance in nature, the uniqueness of each evolutionary path, the pursuit of pleasure and comfort, and the aesthetic beauty of natural forms.
