Description

Welcome to the enchanting world of Sri Vidya, a spiritual path that connects you with the divine mother and guides you towards inner peace and enlightenment. Sri Vidya is one of the Ten Mahavidyas, also known as Shodashi Mahavidya or Tripura Sundari Mahavidya. The divine mother Lalita Maha Tripurasundari is the presiding deity of this Mahavidya.
Sri Vidya is considered the most detailed and complex of all the Mahavidyas. Those who engage with its practices are said to reap the benefits of all the Mahavidyas. This tradition is filled with meaningful rituals and powerful mantras designed to awaken your inner self and connect you with the universe.
This book breaks down these profound practices into easy-to-understand sections, making them accessible and helping you integrate them into your daily life. For centuries, these profound teachings have remained a well-guarded secret, inaccessible to many. But in this book I have simplified the most complex concept of Sri Vidya so that they can be understood by any genuine seeker. Whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your existing practice, you'll find valuable insights and practical steps here.

What You'll Explore
● Tantrokt Guru Pujan and Daily Rituals: Learn how to honor your Guru and perform daily rituals that cleanse your body, mind, and soul. These practices are the building blocks of your spiritual journey. Tantrokt Guru Pujan is the most important aspect of Sadhna in our lineage and should be done first thing in the morning.
● Protective Practices: Discover how to invoke guardian deities and perform protective rituals to shield yourself from negative energies, ensuring a safe and unhindered spiritual journey.
● Sri Yantra Worship: Discover the deeper meaning of Sri Yantra, a sacred geometric symbol that represents the cosmos and the divine feminine. You'll learn how to worship the 180 deities present in Sri Yantra in nine different enclosures and use its energy to transform your spiritual practices.
● Patra Sadhana: Dive into the practice of Patra Sadhana, which involves the use of sacred vessels and symbols to deepen your connection with the divine.
● Mantras and Sadhanas: Explore a variety of mantras and spiritual practices that are central to Sri Vidya.
● Antaryaga (Internal Meditative Practices): Sri Vidya Practices are broadly divided into two parts Bahiryaga (external rituals) and Antaryaga (Internal Practices). In this we cover both parts. While Sri Yantra worship and Patra Sadhan come in Bahiryaga, practices like Bhuta Shuddhi (Purification of five elements inside us), Matrikanyasa (Awakening the power of syllables insides us), Atma Pran Pratishtha (Self consecration) come under Antaryaga. These concepts have been explained in detail in this book.
● Deity Worship: We cover the sadhanas of other deities revered in Sri Vidya, such as Mahaganapati, Matangi, Bhuvneshwari, and Varahi. Each deity brings unique blessings and insights to your practice.This book covers their Nyasa, Mantras, and Dhyan.
● Fire Sacrifice Rituals (Homam): Understand the importance of fire rituals, which purify your environment and invite divine blessings. Learn how to perform these rituals and the mantras associated with them.

Importance of a Guru
While this book serves as a valuable resource for practicing Sri Vidya, it is important to note that it is not a replacement for the guidance of a Guru. A Guru is essential for progressing on the path of spirituality, especially in the realm of tantra. If you do not already have a Guru, we strongly encourage you to seek one to guide you through your spiritual journey.

Your Spiritual Journey
Sri Vidya is more than just a set of rituals; it's a way of life. It's about finding inner peace, self-discovery, and ultimately, union with the divine. This book is here to guide you on your self exploration journey through Sri Vidya with simplicity and depth. May your journey be filled with light, love, and divine grace. Welcome to the world of Sri Vidya.

About the Author

Guru Maa stands as one of our era's most qualified spiritual authorities, a contemporary mystic with an extraordinary journey of over 35-years in Tantric practice beginning at the tender age of fifteen. Born into an illustrious lineage of Tantric masters from Banaras, her spiritual foundations were established from childhood, steeped in the ancient wisdom of her ancestors.

Her exceptional spiritual qualifications stem from direct initiations by some of the greatest Tantric masters of modern times. She received her Sri Vidya initiation from Param Pujya Dattatreyanandanath Ji, a direct disciple of the revered Karpratri Ji Maharaj. Her father, the renowned Swami Divya Chetanand Ji, was among the most sought-after Tantrik Gurus of his time and a devoted student of both the legendary Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali (Paramhans Swami Nikhileshwaranand Ji) and Baba Bhootnath Ji, one of the foremost Kamakhya devotees of the modern era. Baba Bhootnath Ji—a figure to Kamakhya what Ramkrishna Paramhans is to Kali, representing the highest embodiment of devotional mastery in this sacred tradition.

Her sadhana journey is remarkably comprehensive, encompassing mastery of all Ten Mahavidyas and all major Satvik Tantric traditions. Beyond Tantra, she has delved deeply into Kriya Yoga and Buddhist practices, ultimately finding her spiritual home in Rasopasana. This diverse spiritual foundation allows her to present ancient wisdom with rare depth and authenticity, following the pure Samyachaar tradition of Sri Vidya propagated by Adi Guru Shankracharya that emphasizes purity, devotion, and righteousness.

Though a traditional spiritual teacher, Guru Maa is thoroughly modern in her approach and education. After completing her Bachelor’s in Engineering and MBA from Mumbai University, she excelled in the corporate world before fully embracing her spiritual calling. Her scholarly dedication earned her a gold medal in Sanskrit from Kavi Kulguru Kalidas Sanskrit University, enabling her to study and interpret sacred texts directly from their original sources—including the Shreemad Bhagwat, Bhagavad Gita, Tripura Rahasya, Lalita Sahasranama, and numerous others.

Today, Guru Maa leads a balanced life in the United States with her husband, a successful entrepreneur, and their two children. This harmonious integration of profound spiritual practice with family life and professional background makes her teachings particularly accessible to contemporary seekers. She returns to India annually for several months to conduct shivirs, meet students, and share the timeless wisdom she has mastered through decades of rigorous sadhana.

As the author of four definitive books on Sri Vidya, Kali Tantra, and Kamakhya Tantra, Guru Maa brings to this work not only theoretical knowledge but also the lived experiences and spiritual authority that can only come from the guidance of unbroken lineage and her own dedicated sadhana that spans over decades under the guidance of India's most revered Tantric masters.
