Lakṣmī Tantra Chapter 21 Insights—Structure of Mantras
Channel: Consciousness Research Centre
Date: 31/12/2020

This series is classified Vivartha-vāda | Rāja-yoga | Suśupti | Viśuddhi-cakra
In this chapter we learn from Mother Lakṣmī about the different parts of mantras: essential and optional, bīja, piṇḍa, saṃjñā and pada. The four states of consciousness—turīya, suṣupti, svapna and jagrat—are represented by bīja, piṇḍa, saṃjñā and pada respectively. We also discuss which parts of a mantra represent the soul and the body, and also why Mother Lakṣmī created the path of śaranāgatī, self-surrender based on mantras.
