Guest guest Posted October 26, 2002 Report Posted October 26, 2002 Dear one, Well nice to see you all back. And i do not know whether Srividya tradition exists in Nepal. But the kings of Nepal have been devotees of Sringeri Acharyas. During the tenure of Sri Sacchidananda Shivabhinava Swamigal and also later the kings of nepal have been initiated into Srividya. Also there is a siddha by name Anandavardhana, who has written a book called 'Lalita Homa Prayoga'. He identifies himself as a Nepali. When Sri Shankaracharya visited Nepal, he is said to have banned certain practices and initiated many into Vaidika Devi worship, and may be this meant Srividya since he held Srividya to be the highest form of Upasana. namo tripurasundaryai Quote
