SPIRITUALITY : Worship of Goddess Adhiparasakthi

Sekar Chandra
Worship of God in the form of Supreme Goddess Adhiparasakthi is similar to Tantrism and Saktism. However, this worship is different from Tantric, Vedic, and other forms in a very important respect. Most Eastern spirituality is intended for enlightenment and transformation of the individual performing the worship, meditation, etc.


During pooja, statues, pictures and constructions are used as representations and receptacles for Goddess Adhiparasakthi. Although God dwells everywhere, including within ourselves, we have become so removed from God and unaware of our relationship that it is difficult to receive the benefits of this closeness.


Fire is used in pooja for Goddess Adhiparasakthi in several ways. The most common use is in small lamps. Larger fires are used in the conduct of velvis for the offering of special woods and other natural items.

The smoke from these fires purifies and heals. Goddess Adhiparasakthi has said that if these rituals are performed to the best of a devotee’s ability and in Her name then She will protect them from harm if a mistake is made. This is being done because the world is in need of so much help at this time and we are being given the opportunity to help ourselves.
