श्रीविद्या · The Sacred Science Of The Divine Mother
॥ The Sacred Path Of Sri Vidya ॥
Sri Vidya is the most Exalted of the sacred sciences of The Divine Mother, the Worship of Maa Sri Lalitha Tripura Sundari as the very Source and Substance of all that Is. It is the path that Bestows both bhukti (abundance and well-being) and mukti (the bliss of Liberation), Revealing Her Not As Distant, But As The Radiant Self Seated Within The Heart.

The Sri Chakra
The Cosmic Body of The Divine Mother, drawn as nine interlocking triangles (nava-yoni) radiating from the central bindu. To Adore the Sri Chakra is to Worship the whole universe and one’s own being as One, unfolding through the Navavarana, the inward journey through nine sacred enclosures to The Divine Mother seated at the centre.

The Supreme Mantras
The Essence of The Divine Mother is held within two great Mantras, the Panchadasi (fifteen syllables) and the Shodashi (sixteen). Sacred and subtle, they are approached with reverence and a pure heart, Ripening through devoted japa and the Grace of The Divine Mother.
✦
Tripura, Beauty Of The Three Worlds
Her very Name Reveals Divine Glory, Tripura, the three worlds and three states, and Sundari, the Supreme Beauty who Transcends them all. The Divine Mother is the One Awareness Shining beyond waking, dreaming, and deep sleep, the radiant Self within every being and every world.
✿
Who May Walk This Path
The Divine Mother turns no one away. Whoever holds bhakti (devotion) and shraddha (faith) may walk this path, without barrier of birth, station, or nation. A pure and simple sattvic life naturally supports the seeker as the sadhana deepens.

The Retinue Of The Divine Mother
Around Maa Lalitha Shine Her own Emanations, Mata Bala, the Child of pure innocence; Maa Varahi, the fierce Commander of Her forces; and Maa Matangi (Maa Raja Shyamala), Her wise Minister, all radiant within the Maa Das MahaVidya, the ten Wisdom-forms of the One Divine Mother.

From Maha Meru To The Heart
Raised into three dimensions, the Sri Yantra becomes the Maha Sri Meru, the Cosmic Mountain. That same Meru Abides within the subtle spine, its enclosures Awakening as the chakras rise. Outer Worship and inner Ascent are Revealed as One in Her.
