Maheshwara Sutras and Srividya upasana

Dear Saktha Bandhus,

In my earlier mail, the maheswara sutras have not come properly. Here is the

same mail again with proper font of sutras.

This is a short article by me on Maheswara Sutras and how to correlate it with

Srichakra. This was the mode of Upasana by Panini, Vararuchi and our ancient

grammarians. The Srichakra was visualised as the embodiment of VAK by these

grammarians. The Srichakra is nothing was the expanse of entire 50 MATRIKAS.

Perhaps, this was the reason that in Lalitha sahasranama, the name " BHASHARUPA "

has evolved. The Lalitha is in the form of Sanskrit Language. How? Please go

through the entire article. One need to have thorough understanding of Sanskrit

language to understand this.

According to legend, the 14 Maheshwara Sutras were revealed to Panini,

Vyaghrapada, Upamanyu and other sages by Shiva. Panini then then composed his

grammar called Ashtadhyayi which is based on the 14 Sutras that were revealed

during the Cosmic Dance of Shiva. They are also called the Maheshvara Sutras.

At the end of the Shiva’s Cosmic Dance, he sounded his Damaruka 14 times. And

from these 14 Sounds of Damaruka, evolved 14 Sutras.

These 14 sutras encompass the phonetics of the Sanskrit language. The first 4

sutras cover all the vowels. They are 1) a i u n 2) r l k 3) e o n 4) ai au ch.

Omit the last letter of the 4 sutras and they are a, i, u, r, l, e, o, ai, au.

The entire 16 vowels from A to AHA have emanated from these letters.

The Last 10 sutras include all the consonants. They are 5) h y v r t; 6) l n;

7) n m n n n m 8) jh bh n 9) gh dh dh s 10) j b g d d s 11) kh ph ch th th ca t

t v 12) k p y 13) s s s r; 14. h l. Omit the last letter of these 10 sutras,

they become entire 34 consonants ie., from K to HA.

The entire Matrikas ie., 16 vowels and 34 consonants have evolved from these

14 Maheshwara Sutras. The 16 Vowels and 34 Consonants have become 50 Matrikas.

They are the Saktha Pitas of Sridevi. Every Matrika has a distinct Power and

Seat of Origin in our Body. These Matrikas are presided by a distinct and

corresponding Devis that govern that particular seat of origin (Pita) in our

Body. These Cosmic Powers that preside over each Matrika is invoked during the

Antarmatrika and Bahir Matrika Nyasas. These nyasas have to be directly learnt

under the supervision of Gurunatha.

It is to be noted that the Kamakala Akshara is derived from these 14 sutras.

From the first sutra, A is taken and from the last Sutra H is taken. Bindu is

added and its becomes AHAM. This is the AHAM swarupa or the I-NESS of Maheswara

which is of the form of CHIT. It is from this AHAM of the Siva, the entire

Cosmos in the form of Matrikas have evolved. This AHAM is the KAMAKALA. The

entire vowels and consonants fall in between this A and H.

The 14 Maheswara Sutras are given below for the reference.

1. a i un; 2. rlk; 3. e on; 4. ai auc; 5. hayavarat; 6. lan; 7. nama nana nam;

8. jha bha n; 9. gha da dha s; 10. ja ba ga da da s; 11. kha pha cha tha tha

catatav; 12. kapay; 13. sa sa sar; 14. hal

Sage Nandikeshwara has written a beautiful commentary on this 14 sutras.

Entire 36 principles of Creation (36 Tattvas from Siva to Earth) are represented

in these 14 Sutras.

If we omit the last letter of all the 14 sutras, they become 43 varnas. These

43 Varnas denote the 43 Triangles in the Srichakra. Panini and Vararuchi who

are great grammarians were Srividya Upasakas who did the Upasana of VAK in this

manner. The entire Srichakra is the emanation of VAK in the form of these 14

Sutras.

These 14 Sutras are the base of entire Sanskrit Language and Grammer. Entire

Ashtadyayi of Panini is based on these 14 Maheshwara Sutras.

With regards,

sriram
