Goddess Akhilandeshwari, She who is never not broken, reminds us that this lived experience is at least 50% unnecessary suffering, often more. She also reminds us that there is a way to reduce unnecessary suffering: practice devotion, service, kindness, selflessness, patience, and compassion.

Saraswati is the goddess of education, intelligence, memory, creativity, and sacred sound. Her mantra:

Oṁ Vāgdevyai Ca Vidmahe
Viriñci-Patnyai Ca Dhīmahi
Tanno Vāṇī Pracodayāt

Oṁ, may we know the goddess of speech, May we meditate on the wife of Lord Brahma, May Goddess Vani inspire our insight.

Nandi is Lord Shiva’s mount, attendant, and protector of his abode. For strength, knowledge, and physical healing we chant:

‘Oṁ Tatpuruṣāya Vidmahe Cakratuṇḍāya Dhīmahi Tanno Nandiḥ Pracodayāt

Oṁ, may we know that great living being as we meditate on lord of devas may Nandi inspire our insight."

Kumari Amman Temple is mentioned in the Hindu epic Mahabharata. The teachings state that Para Shakti took the form of Kumari, a virgin girl in order to kill a violent demon named Banasura and save the devas from imprisonment and cruelty. Jai Ma!!! Om Sri Matre Namaha 💜🕉💜
