Soundarya Lahari - Q&A - Session 31
We invite you to join our thirty-first Q&A session with Sri Keshava Prasad, where we explore the shlokas 90, 91, and 92 of Soundarya Lahari in greater depth. Through meaningful dialogue and illuminating responses, uncover fresh perspectives and profound insights from this sacred stotra.
To fully appreciate this session, we suggest first listening to the comprehensive commentary on these shlokas from the earlier episodes. Make use of the study materials available to deepen your engagement as we collectively explore, meditate upon, and reflect on the timeless wisdom embedded in these divine shlokas.
Questions:
- What does the comparison of Devi’s feet to mandara flowers teach us about divine beauty and flowering of devotion? What does it mean for the senses and mind to become "six-legged" like a bee?
- What does it mean to learn from the Divine Mother's gait? How can one cultivate grace, rhythm and spiritual awareness in one’s everyday actions by observing Her presence?
- In shloka 92, how does the image of the Goddess seated on the divine throne being supported by the four functions of creation reshape one’s understanding of divine hierarchy? What does the four legs symbolising the lower chakras reveal about yogic ascent of Kundalini?
