Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 91: Shri Kula Sanketa Palini (OM kulasa ~ NketapAlinyai namaH)

In Namams 91 to 111, we will be seeing the Divine Mother’s subtle Mantra- Rupam.

  

Kula is the yoga path to reach the Supreme Self. The Divine Mother protects the rituals needed for this yoga path.

Kulasanketa is the secret of the chakras, the mantras and the rites. This is part of regresses practice and Guru will hold secrets of such yogic or tantric knowledge. Rituals cannot be learnt from a book of knowledge. Such rituals have to be learnt from a Guru. The Divine Mother protects those secret practices.

The devotee needs the Divine Mother’s blessings to learn these worshipping methods.
