What do you do to be involved in the community?

Nature’s Everyday Wisdom

The Mahavidyas reveal themselves in the simple, everyday aspects of nature that we all experience. Here’s how each goddess works in ways we can easily observe and relate to:

1) Kali Maa-

works like seasonal change. Just as autumn strips trees of their leaves, making way for new growth in spring, Kali reminds us that endings are necessary for beginnings. When a garden needs pruning to grow stronger, that’s Kali’s wisdom at work.


2) Maa Tara-

acts like a mother bird protecting her nest. She appears in the way plants heal their wounds, in how our skin repairs itself after a cut, and in how communities come together after disasters to rebuild. She is nature’s nurturing response to harm.


3) Maa Tripura Sundari-

shines in life’s perfect designs, the symmetry of a butterfly’s wings, the perfect spiral of your ear, the hexagonal honeycomb that wastes no space. She shows us that beauty in nature is also practical.


4) Maa Bhuvaneshwari-

works like the air we breathe, connecting all living things in an invisible exchange. She’s present when bees pollinate flowers, creating fruits we later enjoy, showing how each creature’s actions affect countless others.


5) Maa Bhairavi-

functions like the heat that transforms raw ingredients into a nourishing meal. She’s the fever that burns away infection and the challenging life experiences that, though difficult, make us stronger and more adaptable.


6) Maa Chinnamasta-

operates like a mother nursing her child, giving of herself to nourish others. She’s visible when a fallen apple decomposes, feeding the soil that will grow new trees, demonstrating how one life form sustains another.


7) Dhumavati Maa-

works like composting, breaking down what’s no longer useful. She’s present when old leaves break down into rich soil and when outdated ideas make way for fresh perspectives, showing how apparent loss creates new resources.


8) Bagalamukhi Maa-

acts like the pause between heartbeats or the moment of stillness before you speak. She governs the dormancy of seeds in winter that ensures they sprout at the right time, teaching us the power of perfect timing.


9) Matangi Maa- 

moves like a sudden summer storm that disrupts plans but waters gardens. She appears when a fallen tree creates a sunny gap in the forest where new species can grow, showing how unexpected changes create new opportunities.


10) Maa Kamala-

blossoms like a community garden overflowing with vegetables to share. She’s present in the abundance of fruits on a healthy tree and in the generosity of nature’s harvest, demonstrating that true wealth comes through sharing and circulation.

Bhagalamukhi’s : Silent Power of Transformation

Among Dasmahavidhyas, Mata Baglamukhi stands as the mesmerizing force of stillness. While her divine sister Tara embodies the vibrant power of the spoken word and the sacred sound OM, Baglamukhi represents the profound impact of silence and immobility. Baglamukhi essence lies in her ability to freeze negative patterns rather than destroy them. Unlike Chinnamasta who cuts through impurities with lightning energy, Baglamukhi immobilizes our destructive tendencies, holding them motionless for examination. She shatters the ego’s foundations and halts the endless stream of deceptive thoughts, creating the perfect conditions for true self inquiry.

Like a strategic warrior queen wielding her mighty vajra, she grants mastery over our wildest thoughts and sensory distractions. Her ultimate gift is liberation from material attachments through complete mental stillness, eliminating inner conflicts, dissolving confusion, and entrancing us with the hypnotic allure of spiritual wisdom.
