Our Work
In Śrīvidyā, the three cities represent all of existence: from the mundane to the most transcendent. The Empress of these cities is the supreme, all-auspicious, and beautiful Goddess known as Śrī Lalitā Mahātripurasundarī.
At Tripurā Tallikā, we aim to unlock wisdom, knowledge, and devotion embedded within the rituals, mantras, yantras, and texts of the Śrīvidyā tradition through translation projects, rigorous research of traditional and scholarly sources, and spiritual practice.
We believe that knowledge is like currency – to be of value it must circulate; and true knowledge is gained not by hoarding information, but by sharing it.
We believe that sharing the knowledge we find through our inquisitive efforts will help us all to invigorate and bring more depth and sincerity of expression to our practice. Our goal is to be of service to Śrīvidyā practitioners by illuminating their meditations, minds, and hearts through the study of foundational texts, their commentaries, and learning from our respective gurus and senior practitioners.
That’s why we named this endeavor Tripurā Tallikā, ‘the Keys to the Three Cities.’ May we all possess the keys needed to unlock the fullest expression of our Śrīvidyā sādhana.
