Vanadurga Triveni Sutra

Vanadurga Triveni Sutra Mantraam
Vanadurgā Triveṇī Sūtra is the path revealed to the true seeker who seeks only the grace of Mā Vanadurgā.
This path does not explicitly disclose its method of worship but unfolds itself to the one who walks it with unwavering sincerity.
The approach is based on Śuddha Mārga and Alakṣya Sādhana.

This approach does not involve

exhaustive engagement with Yantra-Maṇḍalas,

Vanadurgā Mantra Vidhi,

Vanadurgā Kalpa,

or Vanadurgopaniṣat.

Instead, it condenses all

theoretical understanding

into a brief period,

allowing the seeker

to focus solely on

Sādhana and

the Divine Mother.

Understand this, with the full weight of sincerity —
True Sādhana, whether of the Self or of God,
demands that you taste death while still breathing.
And Her path — the path of the Mother — is the real Sādhana.
You will not be handed the phala you expect.
Nothing is yours by right — it is only by Her will.
If She chooses, you will be given.
If not, even longing shall be denied.
So before you dream of something extraordinary —
read these words again,
read till end.

In the sacred path of Mā Vana Durgā, the Vidyā does not open her heart to those who try to approach her through mere tantrika performances or ritualistic mastery.

This path is not about commanding energies

—it is about surrender, tapas, and truth.

We do not merely distance ourselves from such practitioners;

rather, we consider them outside the sanctity of this Vidyā

—completely untouched by its grace.

For this is not a Vidyā you can claim by lineage,

mantras, or elaborate pūjā-vidhis.

This is a living current, a sacred fire,

in which only the purest intention can survive.

Those who come with ambition or

power-seeking are not just uninitiated

—they are unknowable to this Vidyā.

Mā Vana Durgā reveals herself only to those

whom she chooses

—who come bare, burning, and broken by longing.

To them, she gives not just vision,

but her own svakṛti to be worshipped by the devotee.

And to all others,

no matter how learned or high-seated,

she remains hidden,

veiled in the deepest mists of the forest.

We never use any āsana in our sādhana
— because She never sits upon any throne.
She walks,
She wanders,
She waits,
She watches.
And when She rests,
it is not upon a seat
carved by rituals,
but upon the longing heart
of the devotee.

Yoni Mudrā is varjitā in this mārga.

Only Namaskāra

— the mudrā of śaraṇāgati

— is deemed pure enough to invoke Her.

She is worshipped by the Kirātas—not as panditas, but as true devotees of Prakṛti.
Theirs is the ancient way—the way of those who revere the Vanadevatā in her purest form.

Kirātas are the ancient forest-dwelling, mountain people—primal, fierce, and deeply connected to Prakṛti. They are not bound by Vedic rituals or scholarly debates; their worship is raw, direct, and pulsating with the rhythm of the wild. They see Divinity in the trees, rivers, mountains, and the untamed forces of nature.

Maa Vanadurgā, as the Empress of the Woods, belongs to them—to those who call upon Her not with scriptures, but with the breath of the forest, the drumbeats of the earth, and the unbroken flow of devotion.

Triveṇī (त्रिवेणी) is a Sanskrit word meaning "the confluence of three."
This Sūtra is rooted in Trividyās and the Tri-primary Devatās.

The most intriguing part?

It is revealed only through sādhana.
You will not find it in any text or Purāṇa.
No Guru will teach it—neither in words nor in silence.
Pointers may be given, but the path of sādhana is yours alone to walk.

Every vidyā is upheld by three primary Devatās.

And so it is with the Vanadurgā Triveṇī Sūtra.

This is precisely why it becomes a Sundara Kāṇḍa for every seeker

In the triads,

we do not worship the three

—like Śrī, Hrī,

and Nīlā Devī—individually.

Here, we venerate only One:

Mā Vanadurgā.

We do not see her as

separate from Parama Īśvaram

—Śrī Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa themselves.

And yet, the path toward her

and the Divine Father

unfolds through surrender to

the Sister of Mā Vanadurgā

—a Siddhā, a Parama Yoginī,

a Tapasvinī, and

the one who is first to be

worshipped (Prathamā Pūjanīyā)

in this Triveṇī Vidyā Sūtra.

Vanadurga Triveni Vidya

Just like Gaṇapati completed his entire journey

by circumambulating his parents,
here too, —the seeker

completes the whole parikramā.
Their divine forms

are guarded

and veiled

by the Siddha Māta.

Every Upaniṣad,

every Purāṇa speaks of them—
yet never directly are they named

or described together.
It is she—the Siddha Māta

—who reveals them,
and thus,

being non-different

from our upāsya devatā,

she is the Parama Guru Māta.

Visit any ancient tribal habitation in your state and stay with them for even a day. You will see—they live as they are meant to, with no complaints about life, the earth, or anything else.

They are not too 'enlightened' to preach about the Gods. They may simply say Van Devī, Durgā Devī, or just Maa… and for father, Baba—in a voice as innocent as a child’s.

Yet, when they worship, they do not seek temples or scriptures. They walk into the sacred grove, where the trees—be it Śāl, Nīma, or any that belong to their land—stand as silent witnesses. They venerate the trees, the soil, and the very breath of Mother Earth.

And Maa Vanadurgā loves such innocent souls. Just as she lets you live as you desire, she embraces these simple-hearted beings who never disturb the peace of the Devatās in their abodes.

No one seeks fame, no one boasts of miracles, no one pretends to be a knower of Brahman or the Vedas. That is the way of the forest.

And in this ancient vidyā, it is the same—there is no study of Aṅgas, no structured worship of this deity or that. You do not seek to 'do sādhana' of A, B, C, X, Y, Z.

You simply walk the path… and when the time comes, they reveal themselves.

​Vanadurgā Triveṇī Sūtra: A Path Beyond Questions
Mariamma

Before stepping onto the path of Vanadurgā Triveṇī Sūtra, one must first recognize who is not meant for it. This is not a knowledge system for those seeking rituals for livelihood or external validation. The Upanishads and Mantra Vidhanam already provide for the Panditas—for them, performing pūjā is enough. But there is a vast difference between a Pandita performing a ritual and someone learning a Vidya merely to sustain themselves under the guise of service.

If you are looking for such knowledge, this Vidya is not for you. There are countless other places where such teachings are handed out in abundance.

Then there is another vast category—those who believe that merely knowing Brahman means one becomes Brahman. They cling to whatever is whispered into their ears, tying it around their neck like a binding rope, never questioning its validity.

But realization does not mean

mere intellectual understanding

—it means standing

face to face with the Divine.

That day is your true pūrṇatā. 

Maa Vanadurga—being the Empress Herself—never sits on the throne.

And that grounding nature is exactly what She bestows upon Her seeker:

a state where all desires—material and spiritual—vanish.

The sādhanā towards Maa Vanadurga is nothing short of an epic adventure. Most will not understand the madness with which I write this.

Have you seen that scene in Inception?

When Yusuf erupts in joy,

only to realize everyone is still dreaming?

He screams,

but no one hears.

The path of sādhanā towards

Maa Vanadurga is

exactly like that.

Here, you do not need to

consume everything

—only that which is

meant for you.

This will be a journey presented

in sūtra format—raw, direct,

distilled for seekers of pure bhakti.

The kind of bhakti where

just hearing the name Vanadurga

makes your heart pound

as if you might die

the next second.

For those seekers

—this is for you.

Its foundation is Śrī Vidyā—but only as a base.
The journey beyond is entirely different.
In reality, in truth, there is no Vidyā like Śrī Vidyā.
And after crossing over alone, you reach Triveṇī Saṅgama,
when you reach your final destination,
the first act your inner soul will strive to do is to prostrate before
Śrī Purūṣottama

2 rules to follow on the path of Maa Vanadurgā Sādhana:

1. Disassociate from Tantrikas and those who engage in Tantra Prayogas of the Divine Mother.

2. Avoid association with Panditas—those who speak about the Divine Mother without having true God-realization.

In different sects, a fixed routine is followed for life.

But in Vanadurgā Triveṇī Vidyā, there is no mantra-krama, no puraścaraṇa, no pārāyaṇa, nor any rigid vidhi as seen in other Śākta paths.

Here, once you realize the Goddess, you are given a task

—and your life becomes a journey toward its fulfillment.

Yes, you may go through your sādhana again, for even the deepest realizations can fade. But there is no rigid assumption that 'one must do'—for nothing here binds you.

Your homa, your āhuti, is you—burning for the cause you were meant for.

One word defines this path: RAW.

You are stripped bare in the process of purification

—so raw that no external tools,

no rituals, no validation is needed.

Not even from the Goddess Herself.

For in this path,

once you behold Her,

that very vision

is the culmination of your sādhana.

Unlike the Kumārī form of Maa Durgā, we revere her solely as the Mother—not just a motherly presence, but as the Mother of the entire Brahmāṇḍa and all the Devas.

We do not perceive her as a child or in her youthful form, but as a powerful, formidable presence—one whose mere gaze fills us with unwavering strength.

Her form is striking—draped fully in a saree, her presence alone commands devotion. Even from a distance, the moment your eyes behold her, you bow down, surrendering to the earth in reverence.

And in one of the most beautiful and profound depictions of Maa Vanadurgā, Śrī Purūṣottama Viṣṇu Himself bends down with utmost devotion and tenderness, removing a thorn from her foot.

Śrīman Nārāyaṇa, the eternal Jagat Guru, through this act, teaches us—the seekers of Maa Vanadurgā—how to venerate the Divine Mother with true humility and love, and how even He cannot bear the mere prick of a thorn upon her sacred feet.

Such is the depth of Upāsanā one must cultivate within—where every pain, even the slightest discomfort upon the Divine Mother, is felt as one’s own.

Maa Vanadurga
Her palms hold her saree
—not in modesty,
but in quiet strength
—proud of the one she has raised.
No longer just a trembling child,
the devotee now stands as her own,
shaped by her gaze,
ripened by her fire.

In the heart of the untamed forest,

She moves like the wind

free, sovereign,

beyond mortal reach.

The very earth is Her siṁhāsana,

the vast sky Her chātra.

Nāgas slither at Her feet,

tigers and lions prowl in reverence,

the mighty elephant bows low

—every creature of the wild

stands as Her guardian.

They do not merely adore Her

for nurturing the trees and rivers;

they revere Her as the refuge of all

who take shelter in Her vanaṁ.

And when the thorns of the forest pierce

Her delicate feet

as She plays with the peacocks,

it is none other than Pradhāna Puruṣa,

Puruṣottama Himself who descends to remove them

—while Brahmā and Śiva stand witness

to this saga beyond words.

She remains distant from human civilization,

for She knows them too well

—the most cunning of all beings,

forever driven by self-interest.

Yet, Her essence is forgiveness,

for the very first name by which

She is called is .

To worship Mā Vanadurgā, one must embrace renunciation—not merely in thought, but in action. Only then, through bhakti-laya, does the door to Her grace open.

She is the epitome of learning.

To merely watch Her is itself sādhana.

She possesses the riches of the entire Brahmāṇḍa,

yet She neither builds for Herself

a grand temple nor accepts a siṁhāsana.

If the seeker believes that

by merely reciting Her mantras

or engaging in Her sādhana,

they will rid themselves of their worldly troubles

—no, She does not aid

in such trivial matters.

She does not dissolve your karmas;

She accelerates them.

Every karma you have borne,

you will face rapidly,

so that they are cleared.

And for this, only your tapasya

will give you the strength

to endure the chaos you yourself have created.

That is true grace

—because you will know,

nothing is left pending.

The Path to Her Is Not for the Weak​​

One must realize a deeper truth:

when Mā Sītā was in Aśoka Vana,

those who guarded Her

were no different from those

who always surround Mā Vanadurgā.

Yet, for the bhakta,

the path to Her is not insurmountable.

But to those who seek to reduce

Bhagavatī or Bhagavān

to mere intellectual concepts

—She is ruthless.

She spares none

who approach Her

with arrogance,

for She alone is Kapāla-mocanī

—the One who alters fate itself.

One misstep in Her sādhana,

and even the penance

of past births is

reduced to ashes.

But is Her sādhana difficult?

If even Śrī Rāmacandra had to offer His lotus-like eyes at the final moment…
If even the Pāṇḍavas had to endure trials beyond human comprehension…
Then who are we, mere mortals,

to expect otherwise?

Yet, these stories are not meant to dishearten,

but to inspire.

You have been given a human birth

—the most precious gift a jīva can receive.

And if you still expect

rewards for your tapasya,

you are worse than a donkey.

Mā Vanadurgā cannot be contained

within a stuti,

a Purāṇa,

a Gītā,

or a pravacana.

To dedicate one’s life to Her

is not about mere rituals

—it is about becoming Her instrument.

And to be that instrument,

one must undergo tapasya.

That alone is the

essence of Vanadurgā Sādhana.

And on this path,

the words of no Guru will help

—except two:
Śrī Añjaneya Svāmī and

Śrī Rāmakṛṣṇa Paramahaṁsa.

Every other Guru has spoken of self-realization.

But self-realization is a mere instant

in the presence of Her grace

—it is cheap, insignificant before Her.

What truly matters is God-realization

—and a life of purpose.

A life that must have meaning.

Endless are the tales the Purāṇas sing,
and countless her triumphs
in the Devī Māhātmya —
but when She dons
the mantle of the Guru,
grace takes the form of fire.
Without a word,
She casts you into the swirling river,
when you know not the art of swimming,
nor even that waters run beneath your feet.
For She does not cradle fledglings
— She births the eagle in you.
She does not build shelters
— She awakens the mountain
beneath your step.
And such is her way
— ruthless, tender, and utterly sovereign.

Imagine someone has cast a web upon you

— let’s call him Spider-Man.
But this Spider-Man isn’t from comics.
He could be your father.
A teacher. A friend.
A figure you admired, feared, obeyed —
or maybe even the version

of yourself you thought you had to become.
And this web?
It’s called Dhañcha

— the covering of all these identities.
You wear it so long,
you forget what your own skin feels like.

But on the path of Vanadurgā,
your work is not just to peel it —
but to rip it off.
And when you do,
it will tear you too.
It will hurt.
But it will free you.

That is the heart of this path —
to meet Her as only you,
and nothing else stuck to your being

You will be a rock—unshaken, unmoved—until the journey carves you, and in the end, even stone will weep
To know your own progress, understand this—if any act of yours causes pain to the Mother, you will feel it instantly, like a needle piercing your own chest. And if you receive daṇḍa in that very moment, rejoice
—for at least someone is watching over you.
She gives daṇḍa tat-kṣaṇam
—only to her devotees.
If you are a devotee of Mā Vanadurgā, and yet haven’t reached her sacred abode—where even today, a tiger comes to do parikrama before her—then how will you truly understand who she is?
It is 2025, yet such places still exist.

The Parama Saundarya of Vanadurgā Triveṇī Vidyā

The Divine Mother resides alone,

deep within the forests

—yet never in the heart of the jungle,

but at its very first threshold.

She has her own army,

yet no commander stands in guard,

for she alone takes charge of everything.

And in the same way,

she teaches the seeker this truth:

Worshipping the Father is more important

than worshipping her

—for that alone pleases her.

Yet, when you surrender to Him,

the Father Himself halts you,

saying:

No, stop!

You must worship only your Mother…

worshipping her pleases me.

That is the beauty of this vidyā

—where devotion is not a rule,

but an unfolding revelation.

See the contrast

—Śrī Lakṣmī-Nārāyaṇa,

worshipped as one

inseparable Super-Soul;

Lakṣmī and Nārāyaṇa

—spoken as a single name.

Śiva and Śakti

—one, never apart.

Paramaśiva and Paramaśakti

—eternal, boundless,

beyond even separation itself.

And here too, with Maa Vanadurgā,

it is the same.

Yet, in their divine play,

both will still insist

—No, no…

Worship him!

Worship her!

Such is their love

—where even the highest surrender

becomes a playful offering,

ever flowing,

ever returning.

Why is Triveṇī Sūtra important?
Because here,

no one defines the form of God for you.
No sketches,

no symbols,

no imprints in your subconscious.
You see with your own eyes.

You witness.

And once you witness,
you realize—everything you've ever heard

was just a shadow.
All those loud claims,
the pre-cut images,
the speeches of self-realized ones...
you see through it all and smile quietly,
because now,

you know.

And when you know

—you won’t even speak.
Because truth, when seen,

is beyond language.
And what's been cooked and

served till now is just gas,
but this

—this is the flame itself.

When you begin Sādhana,
you call out like a child
— ‘Mā... Mā...’
to invoke the Supreme Mother.
But as you grow within,
and she reveals herself,
the word ‘Mā’ no longer comes so easily.
Instead, from your own lips,
arises the reverent murmur
— ‘Thākurāin...

You worship the Parama form of God

—as He is.

And why would your mind

ever waver?

Because the Vidyā Mātā,

in her flowing grace,
has already revealed the Parama Īśvara

in countless ways.

Why so many forms,

so many variations of the One?

That is what you earn.

If all truths were printed

in a book,
if every form was drawn

in a sutra,
then what remains for

your sādhana?

And if the Siddha were to

reveal everything—
why were you even born as

a seeker?

This Vidyā is not for you to

parade as a jñānī.
It’s not to collect rituals,

or chant perfectly framed invocations.

This… this is the Pūrṇa Vidyā

of Īśvara—
where the journey,

the flame,

the goal…
is One.

Whatever you see

— that is Śiva.
Till wherever your sight can stretch

— that is Viṣṇu.
And that moment you say

“I saw,” “I experienced”

— that very pulse is Śakti.

The nijasva anubhava
— the direct,
self-lit realization of the Supreme You
— arises solely through the
will of Bhagavatī.

It is she alone who grants the seeing,
the knowing, the becoming.

That is why,
in her mantra,
she is not addressed merely as Prakṛti,
but as Puruṣī.

For while ‘You are’ and ‘You think’
— these are the rhythms of Prakṛti
—She, as Puruṣī,
is the one who carries the Puruṣa beyond all duality.

Not merely the consort
— but the one who completes,
liberates, and
reveals him.

Remember This

The day you realize the Goddess,
The day you witness her in pratyakṣa,
The day you understand the Īśvara,
The day you kneel down before Him—
That day, you will have only tears...
For having once tried to learn from translators’ books,
From fools crowned as Gurus,
From sādhakas who never realized a single thing—
Who, in the name of Nirguṇākāra,
Defined God within their own limitations.

And for the rest of your life,
You will never again try to learn how to worship—
Not Bhagavān, not Bhagavatī—
Because that is not something taught…
It is what you learn
By witnessing Them worshipping each other.

Maa Sarva Mangala
The Sūtra will be revealed when the Goddess wills.

An attempt to cleanse the Ganga Jnanam, polluted by the blunders of myths in the name of tantra and spirituality.
