International Kaulantak Siddha Vidya Peeth (IKSVP) presents the sacred glimpses of the recent course on Devabhisheka, an important part of Dev Sadhana in the Himalayan Siddha tradition. This sacred two-day ritual, conducted by IKSVP, was a profound spiritual event for all Bhairavs and Bhairavis. Day 1 began with Kaulantak Peethadishwar Ishaputra gracing the gathering, addressing and explaining the meaning and significance of Devabhisheka. A grand Saptsindhu chakra was crafted in the soil, followed by a yagya, invoking divine energies. Day 2 saw a serene atmosphere with everyone dressed in white. The Devabhisheka was bestowed by Kaulantak Peethadishwar upon the Bhairavs and Bhairavis, who carried a symbolic sword as an astra. The sacred waters, part of the Tirthan river, were icy cold, yet people’s spirits remained high, and everyone participated with devotion. By dusk, another powerful yagya took place, concluding with the pooja of 64 yoginis, marking the completion of this divine event. We are sharing with you these glimpses, so you can witness the energy of this sacred ceremony. If you wish to experience the spiritual depth of such traditions, you are welcome to join the regular courses offered by IKSVP, both online and offline. Om Shri Kulant Nathaay Namah.

Rani Ki Vav at Patan, Gujarat also known as Queen's Stepwell Rani Ki Vav, Patan Queen's Stepwell, A UNESCO World Heritage Site Patan is a district in the state of Gujarat, located at 125kms distance from Ahmedabad. Patan was once the capital of the state in historic times located on the banks of the (lost) Saraswati River. Nestled in the hustle and bustle of the city Patan, lies an “Architectural Wonder” – Rani Ki Vav. It is also known as “Rani Ni Vav” in Gujarati local dialect. This is a 7 storeyed Magnificent Stepwell, which is built using scientific principles for storing water. Back in 11th century, Udaymati, Queen of the King Bhimadev I from Solanki(Chalukya) Dynasty, expressed her desire to build a stepwell. This stepwell, she ordered to build is in the memory of her beloved husband. Rani ki Vav is one of the UNESCO World Heritage sites in India. The new ₹100 rupee currency note has a picture of this stepwell. Let’s have a visual tour of Stepwell As you walk towards this site, it doesn’t appeal very much. Just a compound wall and some—Well Kept—landscaping work is done around it. The more you approach it, the more it starts appealing. When you reach the main entrance, the Jaw-Dropping view absorbs you in it. Perspective steps going deep down towards the well-shaft are accompanied by intricately carved idols of gods and goddesses. Each idol is as magnificent as if they are living things. The far end is of this stepwell—which is a well-shaft—is not even clearly visible from the first step. Constructional Aspects Rani ki Vav was constructed as a religious as well as a functional structure. The expanse of this stepwell is roughly 1610 sq.m. and 70m length from the base of Toran—Sacred Gateway—to the inner edge of well-shaft. Its 23m in width and 28m in depth. Rani Ki Vav is constructed like an inverted temple highlighting the sanctity of water. It is built on the East-West axis, “Step-Corridor” being in the east and “Well” on the west. Ceremonial Entrance (Toran Dwaar) The first architectural object you see as you step down, is the remains of a pillar base. This evidently confirms the presence of Toran Dwaar – A Ceremonial Entrance. In 19th century, a survey was conducted for Rani Ki Vav. James Burgess and Henry Cousens were two archeologists who had mentioned about these pillars in the survey. The Toran was comprised of 2 freely standing pillars, which were connected by an ornate arch at their upper sections. Towards the west side from this entrance, downward leading steps make a way to the edge of the well. Ceremonial Entrance (Toran Dwaar)Ceremonial Entrance (Toran Dwaar) Architecture and Decorative Work Rani ki vav is a seven storeyed and inverted temple like structure. It has 4 pavilions downwards from east to west and then lastly a Well Shaft. Below is a picture taken from first pavellion. You can see other 3 Pavilions as well. Rani ki Vav is a Maru-Gurjara style architecture. A style of “temple architecure” which is originated from the Gujarat & Rajasthan in historic times. All the 7 levels were open for public and tourists were able to go down to the well. Then there was a powerful earthquake in Bhuj which rocked the state of Gujarat in 2001. After this earchquake, out of 7 levels, only 4 levels are left open for public to ensure the safety & security. There is a great diversity of themes: Divine Figures: Devi or Goddess, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Ganesha in their respective incarnations and form Sacred & Mythical Representation Figures: Dikpalas, Sacred flora and fauna, Apsara, Nagkanya, Vasus and scenes from epics Reflection of Contemporary Society Buddha, Kalki and Mahishasurmardini sculptureFrom left Buddha, Kalki and Mahishasurmardini Sculpture Mahishasurmardini is one of the forms of a goddess “Durga” who is killing a demon called Mahishasur. MahishasurmardiniMahishasurmardini Sculptures in Rani ki Vav are displayed in a pattern, where main deities are displayed in niches. These main deities are flanked by semi divine figures like Apsaras, Nagkanya, Dikpalas and Yogini.& Sheshshayi Vishnu Sculpture During medieval times in Gujarat, there was a tradition of installing “A Sheshshayi Vishnu” sculpture inside the Stepwell, Kunda or Temples. Which you can see in Modhera Sun Temple as well. Sheshshayi Vishnu is represented in 3 successive niches in 3 levels on the rear wall of the Well Shaft. One between the first and second pavillion on the niche of the north wall. In addition to this, out of 24 forms of the lord Vishnu, following forms are present in Rani ki Vav: Keshava, Narayana, Govinda, Vishnu, Trivikrama, Vamana, Sridhara, Padmanabha, Damodar, Samkarsana, Aniruddha, Purusottama, Narsimha, Hari. Moreover 10 famous incarnations are also represented. But among those 10 incarnations; Varah, Narsimha, Vaman, Parshuram, Ram, Balram, Buddha and Kalki (future incarnation at the end of Kaliyug) are clearly identified in Rani ki Vav. Buddha is shown as an incarnation of the lord Vishnu here. A Bhairav—fierce form of the lord Shiv—is represented in a dancing pose here. If you take a closer look down on his right side, the dog is snatching a piece from the decapitated corpse. Licking the blood oozing from the freshly cut head that Bhairava is holding in his hand. Vishnu On Left and Bhairav on rightVishnu On the Left and Bhairav on the Right Brahma, Mahesh & Vishnu With Their Consort When you reach near the well (at 4th pavillion) you can see the panel of “Brahma, Mahesh & Vishnu with Their Consort”. The Top left side of front wall is decorated with the idols of Tridev(Ttriple deity of Supreme Divinity in Hinduism). Their Vahan is also present near each of them, Swan, Bull and Garuda respectively. Front wall sculptures from bottom levelFront wall sculptures at base level Brahma Mahesh and Vishnu with their consortsBrahma Mahesh & Vishnu With Their Consort On the Top-Right side of the front wall, you can see Ganesh with his Consort and then Maha-Lakshmi and Kuber idols are also present. These three are considered as Gods of Luck. Other Sculptures in Rani ki Vav Dikpals (Guardians of Eight Directions) also appear on the walls of Rani ki Vav. 8 Vasus are present on the walls with human body and Cow head in folded hands (Namaskar position). Nav graha are represented in a complete set, over Sheshshayi Vishnu on the Well Shaft. Sun (Surya), Moon (Chandra), Mercury (Budha also known as Grahpati), Venus (Shukra), Mars (Mangal), Jupiter (Brihaspati), Saturn (Shani), Rahu and Ketu constitute Nine Planets called Nav Graha. Dikpal - Guardian of directionDikpal – Guardian of A Direction A Marble sculpture of 48cm height was recovered while de-silting in 1987-88. This sculpture has an inscription in devnagari(indian script) “Maharajani Shri Udayamati”. Due to time constraints, we did not get a chance to see this sculpture. Hence, have no idea where it is kept (May be in museum). Rani Ki Vav is built using burnt bricks, lime mortar, and locally available “Dhrangadhra” stone. Larger blocks of stones were joined by Rosewood Dowels and placed on the ground, forming the floor of the steps and terraces. Interlocking system with woodInterlocking System With Wood A small glass plate was attached at several places where cracks are visible. These cracks were developed after Bhuj’s Earthquake. Upon asking about the purpose of these glass plates, our guide told us they are attached to keep the track of changes in such sections. When the stress on such sections will be increased, these glass plates will break and give an indication for safety. #thehinduheritage #CulturalHeritage #thehindugodsandgoddesses #scrolllink #bharat

महालक्ष्मी, अनंत शक्ति और समृद्धि की देवी, अपने चार हाथों से जीवन में प्रकाश, संरक्षण और शुभता भरती हैं। एक हाथ में खिलता कमल, एक में सोने का कलश, एक आशीर्वाद मुद्रा और एक रक्षा मुद्रा उनके दिव्य स्वरूप का प्रतीक हैं। कौलांतक पीठ में ऐसा कहा जाता है कि महालक्ष्मी के दर्शन और साधना से जीवन में धन, मानसिक शांति और आध्यात्मिक उन्नति प्राप्त होती है। उनका सुनहरा मुकुट, लाल और सुनहरी आभा, और चारों ओर बिखरी हुई दिव्य चमक जैसे स्वर्ग का नजारा प्रस्तुत करती है। उनके दर्शन से मन को शांति, धन को वृद्धि और जीवन को एक दिव्य संगीतमय संतुलन मिलता है। #MahaLakshmi #Yogini #KaulantakPeeth #Lakshmi #Bhagwati

The third and the fourth day of the ‘Vajra Yogini’ camp that the Kaulantak Peeth held discussed the concept of ‘Bali’ and other various techniques integral to the path of Vajra Yogini. All together, His Holiness Mahasiddha Ishaputra explained the participant’s forty kinds of bali and its do’s and dont’s. In his own words, His Holiness explains that the concept of bali in today’s contemporary tantra has been all about animals sacrifices which is plain wrong. The bali or the offerings that the tantra prescribes, has nothing to do with the animal sacrifices. His Holiness the head of the supreme tantric peeth revealed that the animal sacrifice prevalent in the society in the name of tantra is nothing but a social taboo created in the name of feeding ones stomach in the name of deity. To pacify all these taboos, His Holiness thus explained the participants and revealed the real essence of bali or sacrifice. He all together revealed forty different bali’s. The procedure of offering the bali as per His Holiness and Siddha Dharma is that the bali should always be made up of dough. For instance, animal sacrifice means one sacrifices one’s own animal instinct and this is done by making an animal out of dough and then offering it. It was this procedure that the tantric misinterpreted and started using real animals. As per him, the use of real animals is sin because the dough doesn’t have a soul but animals do. Killing an organism with soul is a sin and Kaulantak Peeth doesn’t promote sins/ His Holiness revealed that the practice of Vajra Yogini can only proceed when one offers ones animal instinct to the goddess to walk into the path of her. Presented hereby are the picture taken during the third and fourth day of the course for the Kaulantak Peeth fraternity. We shall further update about the remaining happenings very soon.

A seven day residential camp on "Vajra Yogini" was recently organized and concluded by the Kaulantak Peeth under the holy guidance of His Holiness Kaulantak Peethadhishwara, MahayogI Satyendra Nath Ji Maharaja (Ishaputra) from 17-23 March. The second day of the course was well spent on explaining "Vajra Yogini". It was more like the extension of the first day where Mahasiddha Ishaputra further revealed and elaborated various unknown facts about the deity. In his own words, he explained that the path of Vajra Yogini is the path of "तमसोमा ज्योतिर्गमय". The first phase of her practice involves "tamas" or her path is the path from tamas to the light. He further explained that the mastery of ones own existence also involves the mastery of the "tamas" element inside us. The indulgence of tamas or the ignorance of tamas are nothing but the same thing. Both leads to sins and bondages. The perfection of tamas is the key and its perfection transforms a person from a seeker to a Mahasiddha. Various other important aspects of Vajra Yogini were also discussed like her weapon and staff "khatvanga", her mudras, Dakini poses etc, her association with 64 Yoginis etc. We have also taken some pictures which we would like to present herein so that the Kaulantak Peeth fraternity gets the glimpse of the course of Vajra Yogini and the happenings of the Peeth.
