Bhuvaneshwari is the fourth major power described in the
Tantras. The term Mahavidya means "great knowledge" or
wisdom. Each of these ten great deities is an
outstanding personality of the Divine who bestows or
reveals spiritual knowledge.
MYSTICAL BACKGROUND OF DEVI
BHUVANESHWARI INSTALLATION AT THE PARASHAKTHI TEMPLE
Divine Mother wished to have Her Devi Bhuvaneshwari
aspect installed at the Parashakthi Temple. A year and
half ago, during meditation, Dr.Krishna Kumar was
directed to meet a mystic who was an upasaka of Devi
Bhuvaneshwari. The mystic gave a special mantra to Dr.
Krishna Kumar to energize and charge the vigraha of Devi
Bhuvaneshwari prior to the installation at the
Parashakthi temple. The vigraha has been made with
panchalokha - five auspicious metals. Dr. Krishna Kunar
has been invoking Devi Bhuvaneshwari using this mantra
for more than a year to energize the vigraha. As
directed by our Mother, the yantra prathishta of Devi
Bhuvaneshwari took place on November 13th 2005 and the
mandala pooja will be completed on Dec 30th, 2005.
The Divine Mother directed Dr.Krishna Kumar to meet the
mystic again so as to have him make a yantra for the
installation of Devi Bhuvaneshwari. During Dr.Kumar's
visit the mystic gave his own yantra that he had
meditated on for 20 years and through which he had
invoked Devi Bhuvaneshwari. The mystic informed Dr.Kumar
that the Divine Mother had directed him to give his
yantra to Dr.Kumar so that the installation at the
Parashakthi Temple will have an intense manifestation of
Devi Bhuvaneshwari. This is an event of tremendous
significance as a yogi who has been using a yantra for
several years does not readily handit over to anyone,
that too a stranger. It was Mother's wish to be with us
here at the Parashakthi Temple and Her will has been
realized. We are truly fortunate to have Her in our
midst and the spiritual and wordly benefits which she
can bless us with, is immense.
BHUVANESHWARI & SPACE
Bhuvaneshwari is the fourth in the list of the ‘Dasa
Maha Vidyas’, Bhuvaneshwari stands for the concept of
space. Space has many levels of manifestation: The space
of the physical Universe and the space of the mind. Just
as there are many layers of space in the Universe, there
are many layers in the higher levels of the mind. In our
body, the heart is where the infinite space of the
Universe resides, and this is the seat of the Divine
Mother, Bhuvaneshwari, who represents this Space. By
creating space, we release ourselves from stress and
tension. Those seeking the supreme peace should invoke
and worship the Goddess Bhuvaneshwari, who is the power
of infinite ‘expansion’,peace and equanimity. Her
sound-body is ‘Hrim’, which is as powerful as ‘Aum’.
‘Hrim’ connects the space within the heart with the
infinite, vast space of Consciousness.
MAYA
Like most of the aspects of the Divine Mother,
Bhuvaneshwari is associated with Maya. Maya comes from
the Sanskrit root, "ma", to measure. Maya is also a
synonym for illusion. Thus, Bhuvaneshwari symbolises the
dynamic power of God which manifests itself in a
multitude of visible and impermanent forms. In Hindu
philosophy, the manifestation is ultimately considered
as unreal because of its inconstancy and impermanence.
But at the same time, the devotional scriptures say that
Bhuvaneshwari is also distinct from the illusion She
creates because She controls it. But She is not caught
in it. This quality of mastery over the worldly illusion
gives Her the power to help human beings not to be
involved in Maya and not to be bound by it but instead
to go beyond it.
BENEFITS OF BHUVANESHWARI WORSHIP
The name of the Mahavidya itself means the ruler of the
world and a Sadhak of Bhuvaneshwari is always victorious
on all fronts in life and becomes all-powerful. Even Ram
had to propitiate the Goddess before defeating Ravan who
had conquered even heaven.
A Sadhak of Bhuvaneshwari:
• Gains a mesmerizing personality that draws all people
to him and makes them
readily obey his command.
• Diseases, enemies and problems are forever banished
from his life
• He has unexpected and huge monetary gains.
• He conquers all problems in life - even the danger of
untimely death.
• He leads a joyous family life and gains fame and
respect nation and world wide.
• Whatever he wishes for is fulfilled, for he is
bestowed with 64 divine virtues which
help him succeed in every venture that he undertakes.

happy, prosperous and
comfortable.
