Shri Lalitha Sahasranamam: Namam 104: Shri Rudra Granthi Vibhedini (OM rudragranthivibhedinyai namaH)


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

The Divine Mother comes out of the Rudra (Rudra –granthi or Knot) (Siva) knot when the Kundalini travels from Muladhara to Sahasrara.

The most auspicious Rudra-granthi is located in the Visuddhi and Ajna chakras. It is Lord Siva’s residing place. The name of this Granthi is derived from it. Visuddhi and Ajna cakras combined are called Chandra- mandala.

Srividya (Pancadasaksari) Mantra has four Mandalas which are Agni, Surya, Chandra and Soma madalas.( Vagbhava-kuta (4 syallables), Kamaraja-kuta (5 syllables), Sakti-kuta ( 3 syllables) and Turiya (3 syllables) total 15 syllables. These were reflected in Namams 85 to 87.

There are three Granthis (knots) namely Brahma-granthi, Vishnu-granthi and Rudra-granthi correspond to Agni, Surya and Chandramandals. These three Granthis symbolically represent the creation, existence and disappearance respectively of the human body made of five elements.

Vibhedini is breaking through.
