Common Spiritual questions
Q. Can we do random jaap of Panchdasi or other Mantras?
A. No, random jaap of mantras is not recommended unless you’ve been guided by a genuine spiritual master.
Q. What if I can't complete my spiritual journey in this birth?
A. Bhagwan Krishna says in the Gita such practitioners are taken care of in the next birth where they will start off their spiritual journey where they’ve left off in their previous lives.Also Refer Bhagvad gita chapter 6 from shloka 40-45.TEXT 40:The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: Son of Pṛthā, a transcendentalist engaged in auspicious activities does not meet with destruction either in this world or in the spiritual world; one who does good, My friend, is never overcome by evil.TEXT 41:The unsuccessful yogī, after many, many years of enjoyment on the planets of the pious living entities, is born into a family of righteous people, or into a family of rich aristocracy.TEXT 42:Or (if unsuccessful after long practice of yoga) he takes his birth in a family of transcendentalists who are surely great in wisdom. Certainly, such a birth is rare in this world.TEXT 43:On taking such a birth, he revives the divine consciousness of his previous life, and he again tries to make further progress in order to achieve complete success, O son of Kuru.TEXT 44:By virtue of the divine consciousness of his previous life, he automatically becomes attracted to the yogic principles – even without seeking them. Such an inquisitive transcendentalist stands always above the ritualistic principles of the scriptures.TEXT 45:And when the yogī engages himself with sincere endeavor in making further progress, being washed of all contaminations, then ultimately, achieving perfection after many, many births of practice, he attains the supreme goal.

Sri Vidya
Under the Guidance of Guru Maa Smita Venkatesh
Srividya Tantra stands as a revered vidya, meticulously centered around the profound worship of the Divine Mother, Devi, in her sacred form as Sri Lalita Tripurasundari. As an esoteric offshoot of Tantra, its essence lies in the profound realization of spiritual truths and the unification with the divine feminine essence. Rooted in rituals, meditation, and the rhythmic recitation of mantras, Srividya Tantra serves as a conduit to harness the divine energy emanating from the goddess herself. At the core of its practice lies the mystical Sri Chakra, an enigmatic diagram that assumes a central role in engaging with the spiritual realm.Within our revered guru parampara, Guru Maa Smita Venkatesh imparts the profound wisdom of Srividya Tantra to earnest seekers. This sacred knowledge is meticulously divided into four distinct levels, each encompassing a diverse range of practices, rituals, and theoretical insights into the nature of the Goddess. Dedication and sincerity on the part of the disciple are paramount, as it requires a minimum of two years of dedicated study and guidance from the Guru to grasp this profound vidya.By embarking on this transformative path with utmost reverence for the Goddess, Srividya Tantra strives to awaken and unlock the dormant spiritual potential within each practitioner. Through the acquisition of blissful experiences, profound knowledge, and ultimate liberation, it offers a transformative pathway towards achieving oneness with the universal consciousness.
