The Aesthetic Tantric Goddesses that recuperate mind, body and soul
Devi Varahi: One of the seven parent goddesses regarded as the Matrikas in Hinduism is Varahi. Varaha, Lord Vishnu's boar manifestation, has the face of a pig, and Varahi is his feminine vitality. Varahi is more commonly revered in the goddess-centered Shaktism cult in addition to Shaivism and Vaishnavism. Traditionally, she is venerated at night using esoteric Vama Marga Tantric ceremonies. The Hindu goddess Varahi is the mother of the Buddhist goddesses Vajravarh and Marici.
Kamakhya Devi: A major Shakta Tantric Goddess of Desire, Kamakhya is believed to have been born in Kamarupa, Assam. Kamakhya, who'd been initially a Kirata goddess, was untouched by Brahmanical philosophy at least until the seventh century. She is venerated in the non-iconic and non-anthropomorphic shape of a rock chiseled into the figure of a Yoni and refreshed by a periodic stream at her residence in the Nilachal Hills, west of Guwahati.
The Kamakhya Temple, one of the world's most significant Shakta temples, is the preeminent among some of the 51 Shakti Peethas connected with the Sati-following sect. Kamakhya, the goddess, is regarded as the bleeding deity. The "Garbhagriha," or sanctuary, of the temple is believed to hold the mythical womb and genitalia of Shakti.
Manasa Devi: Manasa Devi, known as the serpent Devi, is venerated most often in Bengal. It is claimed that Goddess is the person who is in command of all of the world's snakes. It is broadly acknowledged that if you venerate her, you can heal from just a snake bite. Manasa is worshiped for both reproduction and wealth. She is regarded as a metaphor of both "annihilation" and "rejuvenation," somewhat comparable to a snake discarding its very own coat and giving birth to a brand-new life.
Mahavidya Bagalamukhi: The eighth of the Mahavidya Deities is Bagalamukhi. Her moniker is a combination of the terms bagala and mukhi. Bridle is the definition of the Sanskrit word Bagala, a distortion of the genuine root Valga. Bridles are the term for the equipment used to manage horses. Bagalamukhi, then, alludes to the Goddess who possesses the power to subjugate and paralyze adversaries.
She is also known as Devi of Stambhana due to her powers to catch and immobilize. According to legends, all the Gods assembled in the Saurashtra region and appealed to the Goddess when a great tempest attempted to annihilate the entire universe and burst out across the earth. Goddess Bagalamukhi emerged from the Haridra Sarovara after already being pacified by the gods' prayers, soothing the storm.
Goddess Mariamman: In South India, especially in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and sections of Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra, Goddess Mariamman is an established Hindu goddess. She is a gramadevata, or hamlet goddess, and the Hindu Goddess of the impoverished and downtrodden. Mariamman Devi's genesis story is remarkable and is linked to Devi Renuka, the parent of Parashurama, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
Male-dominated theological scholars disregarded or even rejected their unique style of devotion. They were grama devatas, or village deities. Mari seems to be the Tamil term for rain. The term can also indicate "change," as in "her exquisite attractiveness completely disappeared and also was supplanted by disease." As a consequence, she went by the aliases Mariyayee or Aathaa. Aathaa is a name for grandmother or mother. She is a symbol of commitment, parenthood, plenty of money, and overall wellness.
