Introduction
We covered important mantra and pUjA kramas of ChinnamastAmbA in the last issue.
In this issue, we will be focusing on the sixth dashamahA vidhyA tripurA bhairavI.
In this issue we bring the mantra japa kramA, AvaraNa pUjA kramA, and nyAsAs of
tripurA bhairavI dEvatA. The tripurA bhairavI ashtOttara shlOkA, stavarAja shlOkA, and
trailOkya vijaya kavacA have been included for the readers benefit.
TripurA bhairavI form is represented as various tantric goddesses sampadpradA
bhairavI, panca kUTA bhairavI, nityA bhairavI, rudra bhairavI, bhuvanEshI bhairavI,
kaulEsha bhairavI, sakala siddithA bhairavI, bhaya vidvaMshinI bhairavI, caitanya
bhairavI, kAmEshvarI bhairavI, ShatkUTA bhairavI, annapUrNA bhairavI, and tripurA
bAlA bhairavI. The four hands of this dEvatA sports vara, abhaya, akSha mAlA, and
pustakA. This is a clear representation of bAlA tripurasudaryambA and hence the most
represented form of tripurA bhairavI is bAlAmbA. Each of the above representations
have their own mantras and AvarnAs, kavacAs etc.
As usual, we would like to caution the upAsakAs that these dEvatAs CANNOT be taken
lightly and the mantrAs considered like any other mantra. As the tantras rightly caution,
this path is like walking on a sword and can only be ventured into by the Grace of the
GurunAthA. The upAsana karma of these dEvatAs demands strict yamA and niyamAs
and also ardent faith on the Guru and the dEvatA. It is important to understand the
meaning of the mantra, the physical representation of the dEvatA, and contemplation on
the deeper aspects of the same. These can only be provided by the Guru and by the
power of the sAdhanA.
These mantras cannot be taken lightly and readers are strongly adviced to check with
their Gurus prior to start practicing any mantra or procedure as detailed in this issue.
We thank ShrI yOgAmbA samEta AtmAnandanAthA (Shri Ramesh Kutticad) for penning
the parashurAmAs tenets and answering the sadA vidyA anusaMhatiH section of this
issue.
Lalithai vEdam sarvam.
Surrendering to the holy pAdukAs of Shri Guru,

There are numerous variations of tripurA bhairavI mantras and hence we are not
providing the actual mantra to avoid confusion. Each guru mandalam follows a
particular variation. The most prominent mantra is the 8 letter mantra and we suggest
that the mantra given by the Guru be used here.

The shivA for tripurA bhairavI is dakShiNAmUrti shivA. Hence the mUla mantra for
dakShiNAmUrti is used. A few texts include Tripura bhairavA as the shivA and for
completion purposes, that mantra and dhyanA are provided below. However, as we
always state, whatever is prescribed and practiced by your Guru / Guru maNdalA
should be followed.

Paraurmas tenets
In the last chapter of Paraurma kalpa stra we find the tenets to be adhered to by an
sdhaka in this upsana. Out of the many said following tenet is discussed.
str-vnddima-kalaa-siddha-ligi-kr-''kula-kumr-kula-sahakrokaika-tarupretvani-matta-vey-ym-rakta-vasan-mattebhn darane vandanam
darane vandanam- On sight of the following an aspirant in this path is to be respectful
and prostrate with his mind. Since other wise this action would be against another tenet
gopyam- break of secrecy in following this path.
Darana will also point to revealing of divinity. Vandana will mean reverence, thus this
will also point to recognizing or venerating divinity in the above list.
Let us discuss each of the above individuallystr-vnda A group of ladies. One of the thousand names in Lalit sahasranma is
vimnasth- vi- (vieena) especially, mna measured, sth placed in, thus this
will point to the akti tattva which has caused the primordial movement to manifest this
visible universe which can be measured from the pre-creative state which is
immeasurable. The traditional iconography of sakthi is female, thus this will mean as inherent in the female. Devi mhtmy also says tava Devi bhedh striya: samasat:verily all the female are your form. Thus it is proper to venerate the movement of energy
personified as akti.
32
Str by katapaydi will point to the number two; vrnda to a group, thus the whole
universe which is an expression of the initial spanda personified as Divine couple is to
be venerated is the darana here.
dima-kalaa:- dima -the first ma in the paca makra which is alcohol. Kalaa
means a ceremonial pot. Thus we find veneration instructed on sight of a ceremonial
pot full of alcohol (dravya). The instruction is explicit ceremonial viz. during the ritual
when the kraa kalaa is established. The Primordial couple is invoked in the liquid as
nanda bhairava and nanda bhairavi mithuna. Thus we find veneration to that divine
couple is said here.
The first makra is one of the cause of manifestation of Brahman as per verse in the
initial chapter nando brahmaam rpam tacca dehe vyavasthitam tairabhivyanjakaa:
paca makrh. Hence this veneration is required.
Looking further this liquid (alcohol), is a transformed one, from sugar. Thus it will now
imply venerating transformation, particularly of mind awareness. kalaa will mean
traditionally as this body itself. Thus to recognize that transformation of mind awareness
from body level to Universal level, which is full if bliss is the divine to be attained is the
darana needed here, and to be venerated.
33
have the everlasting awareness of the divine couple, are to be venerated for their
blessings and guidance in this path.
kr-''kula-kumr- Playful group of young maidens. Lalit triati has a name: hallsa
lsya santut and lsya priy, Sahasranma says lsy - Devi is happy in a group
with playful mood. hallsa is kummi in the southern Tamil vernacular or Dandya in the
northern (esp Gujarati). This is played by a circular woven motion of dance and clicking
two colorfully decorated sticks held in the hands. This will now point to an expression of
joy and great flow of energy, which is identical to the primordial surge during creation,
which is the darana here and hence is suitably venerated.
krda and kula as per katapaydi is thirty one, which denotes the may tattva. Kula
also will point to the six astral centers in the body and kumari to inherent power in this
body called kualini. Thus recognition and veneration of the play of mya and bliss of
kualini experience is the darana said here
kula-sahakrokaika-taru- the trees of venerative nature, blossomed mango tree,
aoka tree and a single tree in within the vision range. Traditionally certain trees are
associated with divinity- the banyan, peepul, and gooseberry (amla) etc, they will bring a
sense of clam and joy to devotees. Mango tree blossoms in the spring, wherein all the
creatures are in joyful state of mind. a oka by name it self will point to a joyful state,
eka taru a single tree within eye sight- indicative of divinity associated with that
place, On a whole recognizing the ever lasting joyful state and divinity, which is the
recognition of the divine couple as permeated in this entire universe is the darana
here.
pretvani- The literal translation is cremation ground. Preta means a lifeless being or
corpse. (Pra(Karana) Itah (Gatah) Yasmt Jivahsah). avani means earth or place.
Thus places where in the corpse are buried or burnt- the cremation ground is to be
34
venerated. The creation of this body is from the five elements in a universe after
packaraa of the five elements and after the soul leaves this body it will return to its
original state of elements, either by burial or by burning. The main idea said here is the
realization that sthla deha gross body is made up of the five elements as a
movement by the divine couple. Recognizing the initial spanda of creation and further
gross creation by packaraa of the elements if the darana here.
matta-vey- The literal meaning is intoxicated or aroused prostitute. vesya by
katapayadi code will show fourteen, the vidys of the vedic lore- the four Vedas, four
upa Vedas and six angs. Elsewhere also Paraurma says vey isva prakat veddi
vidy. This is the secret in that statement, such an example also points to that the
Vedic knowledge is open to common public platform and can be taught in a group or
class, while kula sdhana is a one-to-one basis. Tantra sdhana also is based on the
Vedas, thus to venerate Vedic teachers is the meaning shown here. matta is in the
sense of the universal self. (r k in Gita says: matta parataram- Nothing is
different from me, Here matta means the identity with the universal self). On a whole
the veneration of the reverend Vedic scholars who have real experience of the universal
consciousness, which is again the goal of the Tantra sdhana, is the darana here.
Referring the article on Vrhi we find a similar Vedic allurement there, and hence this
will now point to the initial upsana of Vrhi also.
ym- The dark hued women. Here the secret message can be unfolded by
katapaydi code, sya is one and ma is five, reversing we get fifty one. They are the
alphabets of the Sanskrit language- matrukkars. Thus to recognize the universal
sound and its thought constructions, the compounded intellectual knowledge through
time is personified as the divine. In practice this can also means the teachers, the
musical performer esp. singers, an allusion is there to worship ymal Devi as the
second in line to the upsan of Lalit.
35
rakta-vasan- Women in red colored attire / clothes. So, if we find women in red
garments we have to recognize the divinity of that situation and be respectful. Red color
as per Bhvanopaniat is the recognition of the identity of the attribute-less Brahman
called Mahkmevara, the bliss full Lalit and the sdhaka with the sensory organs as
being not different from the tm. This is verily the upsan of Lalit.
mattebhn - The ruttish or furious elephant. Elephant is a symbol of huge energy
potential, when tamed can perform Herculean tasks at the command of the trainer. It is
controlled by a small goad. Ruttish is a state of uncontrolled energy exhibition. Thus to
recognize that divine is an uncontrolled energy and grace of the divine has no logical
flow is the darana in this way. This is the upsana of par.
Thus these tenets have been deeply analyzed by the Grace of r Guru and Lalit
Kmevara, The word stra itself is a pointer in this direction. Soocanaat sootraStr are indicative in nature. Thus we have done a deep meditation on the real
purpose of these strs.
