Sri Rajareshsvari is a form of the Goddess


Namaste Vaj Ji,
I must politley take exception with your comments,
are saying Sri
Rasheshwari or Sri Rageshwari?
As, both are the same name for
 one Devi / Goddess.


Neither.

Namaste Vaj Ji,
I most politely, in case you are 
intersted in the facts..
Sri Adi Shankara while at His origianl
mutt at Kanchi, one day
presented a gift of earrings to the 
Temple Diety-
Devi Sri Tripurasundari.

The earrings are the "Sri Yantra" itself and 
the mantras are
inscribed uopn those earrings, 
that were presented by Adi Shankara
to the Devi Tripurasundari.

The Goddess / Devi Lalita Tripurasundari 
that Adi Shankara presented
His gift to was His Divine Beloved at that 
particular temple in
Kanchi.

But Adi Shankar's true Divine Beloved Bhagawan w
as Him-Govinda to
whom He-Adi Shankar wrote-
 'Bhajo Govindam'...

Nonetheless there are Sri Vidya texts 
attributed to Adi Shankara-- 
whether we believe that they actually 
were written by him is another  
question. Some accept this, others do not.




worshipped in Sri Vidya
and popular in the cult
of the Shankaracharyas.



Please find me *ONE SINGLE SHANKARACHARYA*
that "worships a Sri
Vidya" from the website of a living
*Legimate* Shankaracharya in any
of the mutts / maths.


Why? The practice of Sri Vidya in the Shank.
 tradition goes back to
Shankara himself and is continued up to the present.


No it does not. Please find 
ONE SINGLE SHANKARACHARYA*
that "worships a Sri Vidya" from 
the website of a living
*Legimate* Shankaracharya in 
any of the mutts / maths.

And why would I expect to see such 
a thing on a website? Seems a  

1). Puri Peeth has celebrated Sri Krishna Janmashtami every year 
with a chariot/Rath Yatra procession of Sri JagganathJi(Sri Krishna) 
for thousands of years. In fact Adi Shankara set this math as a 
Vaishanvite monastery, Puri Peeth is not even advait vedanta!!
check out the pics

Sure doesn't look like worship of a "Sri Yantra"

2). Sringeri Peeth special functions and celebrations

Nothing in there regarding a celebration related to worshipping 
a Sri Yantra.
Although there was-, 'Sri Krishna Jayanti' celebration on 08/15/06.

3). Dwarka Peeth- Sri Swami Swaroopananda Saraswati, highly doubtful 
he worships a Sri Yantra.

4). Jyosimutt/ Badrikashram- Sri Swami Swaroopananda Saraswati, 
highly doubtful he worships a Sri Yantra.

5). Kanchi mutt- here is the link go see if this mutt engages in 
worship of Sri Yantra

Samaya Sri Vidya does not require any externally obvious signs. Not finding a secret practice on a web site is no indication that it is not practiced, nor should we be surprised it is not practiced everywhere. It has a long association with these traditions, esp. the southern seat.

BTW, just a casual glance at itineraries shows participation in Sri Vidya rituals. I think you're just playing games.

Just what FFL needed--another game player. Excuse me if you are actually ignorant in this area, but it sure seems like game-playing to me!
