DESCRIPTION:
Sri Chakra is compared to a human body and Shiva and Shakti are compared to the soul within. This is also known as Sri Yantra and Chakra-raja. There are totally thirty seven verses (some texts call these as sutra-s). This section of the book is elaborate, as it contains mantras, images and explanations and detailed procedure for performing the Navavarana puja. Any god or goddess can be worshipped in Sri Chakra, as all of them have a place in it. Every aspect of mantras is explained in detail by quoting references form Lalita Sahasranama and other sacred Scriptures. The book has three sections. We worship them and finally proceed to the innermost triangle where we are completely purified. We can enter Sri Chakra only after crossing Sri Nagara, which has several forts guarded by different gods and goddesses. English texts are given in IAST format so that, those who are not conversant with Sanskrit can pronounce the mantras properly. Third and final section of the book is Bhavanopanishad. After spending sometime at Her feet She takes us to Shiva in the Bindu to get us liberated. We also come across various rivers, ponds, forests and gardens. First section is titled “Journey to Sri Chakra”. Uttara bhag (the chapter containing the benefits of recitation, also known as phalashruti) of Lalita Trishati elucidates Sri Chakra in a comprehensive manner. At the end of thi
krishna vallapareddy said Five Stars. Everything needed for worshipping Lalita Devi in the Srichakra.. "Five Stars" according to LR. Thank you!. Well written Savitri This is some serious book, if you are committed to Shree Vidya path this is it . Detailed description of all ceremonies required in the Shree Chakra worship are a little difficult to perform though for a layman. One should perhaps have a Guru as well that could help.
