“Listen!” Kāmākhyā said, “Here I am residing with Ānanda Bhairava (Śiva in his happy mood). As I am happy, I want to bless the devotees with the same happiness!
So many centuries ago there were celebrations and happy rejoicing in this place of worship (Devīpuram) with yajñas, Vedic chant, and many offerings in the fire. This place was invigorating to the people who visited here. It gave devotees religious fervor and filled their minds with total and supreme blissful Consciousness (cid-ānanda-paripūrṇa-prakāśam).
This place once again needs to be made into a place of religious worship, and it is you who will help me to do it! You have to carry the task of rediscovering this place!
The social scene is highly polluted now. Many have become slaves of materialism which turns away from Self-realization. They are like the Creator who fell in love with His own creation.
The act of union in love, as the root of Creation, has become ridiculed into lust and egoistic passion, since the divinity of Love is lost in the temporary act of satisfying momentary egoistic needs (indriya prakopam). Therefore atheists sneer when śṛṅgāra (loving for love’s sake) is mentioned anywhere.
All these misconceptions, greed, and falsehood are making life miserable. Because of such behavior people lose peace and hence cannot find happiness. This so-called ‘right social behavior’ is actually causing unease and misery.
All this should change!
Before these arrogant people degrade even further, they must be taught or reminded of the easy, comfortable, genuine way of life — so that they can become happy and have enough time to think beyond egoistical concerns. Reach out to those who are fortunate enough to help themselves!
The institution of marriage can be taken as an example. People, through generations and time immemorial, believed in marriage with a different understanding. Ancient marriages of love sanctified religious duties. Now marriages have become mere acts of egoistical convenience and gain.
Hence one should not impose bondage on the couple. In ancient times it was a way of life. Now it has become a loveless contract.
It is time for people to understand the beauty and comfort of co-existence, to bring children who are happy, well-behaved, self-satisfied, and altruistic. This is the need of modern time.
Śṛṅgāra is nothing but preparation or getting ready for union in love, also decorating oneself in the most beautiful and appealing way (what the present generation calls “makeup”).
In ancient times Love was one of the sixty-four arts of life (catuḥṣaṣṭi kalās) that one should know for successful and happy living. Nowadays the word is translated as lust, which demeans this art to its lowest degree.
Śṛṅgāra is known in ancient literature as Kāmakalā. It resides in the Mūlādhāra Cakra, coming down via Suṣumṇā Nāḍī as a Vaikharī Śabda. Through it a person is identified with Earth. This type of planned creation and its execution is beautiful and ecstatic.
In the human body Mūlādhāra is the seat of creation. From the Supreme Void, Supreme Consciousness identifies itself as Sun and Moon energy and also Fire energy and enters the human body through Suṣumṇā.
Mūlādhāra works through the South Pole on Earth, and in the solar system through Saturn. Mūlādhāra is a four-petaled lotus where each petal represents one Veda or one side of Earth.
Here, on Earth, in its bīja (seminal) form rides an elephant holding an infant in Her lap. This infant is none other than Lord Śiva Himself. Therefore we are called “Bāṭukas.”
The elephant is Airāvata. Airāvata is the vāhana of Indra, which means “lightning.” When two heavy clouds rub, lightning is generated. This represents inherent electrical discharge — the imminent seed of Earth.
Mūlādhāra is also the seat of Svayambhū in Liṅga rūpa (self-created phallus). It has the red form. This is the subliminal aura manifesting from homogeneous Consciousness (Parā Śakti). It is static energy of Lord Īśvara — self-created, yet creating everything. This is the truth of life and also the duality of creation.
At Kāmākhyā (Devīpuram) the Goddess appeared like this: a water hole six feet deep with Śivaliṅga, surrounded by a triangle. This confirms it as a representation of the Mūlādhāra center.
Here Devī appeared as Universal Creation, Universal Mother (Yoni), Universal Father (Liṅga), the seat of all creation (Viśva Yoni).
Hence there is no place for lust here. Only controlled divine behavior exists.
Śṛṅgāra control in love-play is something common people may not understand. It seems an oxymoron, but it was traditional behavior of Ṛṣis.
When this happens, materialistic approach disappears. Love is expressed and experienced in a controlled manner. Control means more energy.
Energy in Mūlādhāra travels upward through Suṣumṇā toward Viśuddhi Cakra, transforming into positive kinetic energy, then further toward Sahasrāra where it becomes light energy, manifesting as halo or aura.
“Viśukra-prāṇa-haraṇa Vārāhī vīrya-vanditā” — Lalitā Sahasranāma
Viśukra and Viśaṅga are commanders of Bhaṇḍāsura, representing roots of sin. Viśukra misleads sexuality toward prostitution and lust. Viśaṅga supports this.
Vārāhī destroys them by controlling sexual energy and directing it toward Viśuddhi and Sahasrāra. Conserved śukra (semen) energy evolves to higher levels.
Humanity is in need of direction. They need a leader to lead them to the righteous path.
I am here with this explicit purpose.
I need a tool to fulfill this job.
You are the tool.
I will be with you.
Society will ridicule you, disbelieve you, criticize you, your methods, and even the concept. They may get angry, try to punish you, put you behind bars, or even try to kill you.
Why are you afraid? You are already encaged by buddhi, ahaṅkāra, and ego.
Are you afraid of death? This is not your first birth nor your last. One more death — how does it matter?
Be brave and enterprising.
Take the job and be my tool.
I will lead you.
Come with me!
We shall work together.
This place will soon become a religious citadel which will protect and improve the spiritual and mental health of people.
