In Namams 199 to 248, the Divine Mother’s Saguna or infiniteness power and glory are described.
The Divine Mother resides in the Sri cakra. Niketa is the place of residence.
Sricakra is the top most cakra (in Saki-tantra).The widely spread universe is the complete Sricakra where the Divine Mother resides. She is ruling the universe from there.
There are maps showing the boundaries for the nations. Everything in this universe can be drawn to an image level to explain its existence. Similarly manmade symbolic Sricakra, represents the wider universe, where the Divine Mother is residing Herself.
Her devotees first realize the Divine Mother in the Sricakra. As they mature, they start to see the Divine Mother in the whole universe. For them then the whole universe then becomes the Sricakra.
In Tantras, the Sricakra is called the king of the cakras (cakraraja).
The Divine Mother dwells in nine cakras; they are starting from Trilokyamohana through Sarvanandamaya. Before understanding the Truth directly and having the blessings of the Divine Mother, we need to transcend nine layers or nine curtains of the Sricakra.
It is clear from above that the Divine Mother is not easily reachable for a common man; constant prayer and worship are the ways to have Her Darshana or to attain Her. Pure devotion is the only way to win Her blessings.
Sricakra:The Divine mother resides in nadabindu.
