In Namams 381 to 474, the Divine Mother’s Jnana Yoga worship
methods are discussed in details.
The Divine Mother has multitude of forms.
The Divine Mother takes various forms or rupas. The Sky is a good example. From the Sky many living things come out. As a result, many billions of beings are created in this universe. Like clay is the base material for making many forms of utilities and items, the Divine Mother has many forms and shapes within Her to create the creatures and beings in this universe. In these forms, some of them are pleasant, some are ugly, some are useful and some cause trouble to others. However, when one starts to see them all as the divinity of the Divine mother, the person’s worship to the Divine Mother increases. They are all various forms of the Divine Mother.
The creation is in two ways namely, Vaikrta and kaumara: Vaikrta is for creation of plants, animals, ghosts and spirits; the life force (prana) of the plants moves upwards; that of animals it moves sideways and for the ghosts it moves downwards. Kaumara is for the creation of humans, gandharvas and Devas.
The plants, animals, Devas, humans, sand, stone, grass etc are all some of the forms of the Divine Mother; so She is the Vividhaakara. The Divine Mother is causing and responsible for these types of all forms in universal creatures.
She is Vividhaakara, the one with multiple forms.
The Divine Mother is creating
the infinite universe.
