Lalitopākhyāna Series: Chapter Summaries
As many of the practitioners know, the Lalitopākhyāna (part of the Brahmāṇḍa Purāṇa) holds a significant place in the Śrī Vidyā tradition. It introduces various deities, mantras, and yantras essential to our daily practices, which are also seamlessly integrated into the Paraśurāma Kalpasūtras. Understanding this text is pivotal for anyone serious about learning Śrī Vidyā.
For the 2024 fall Navarātrī Tripurā Tallikā is pleased to release abridged summaries of each of the 40 chapters of the Lalitopākhyāna as found in the Brahmāṇḍa Purāṇa translated and annotated by G.V. Tagare (1958). This work is crafted to deepen and enrich the spiritual journeys of Her devotees by offering accessible insights into this sacred text’s divine narratives.
To facilitate a deeper engagement during the Navarātrī festival, the chapter summaries are divided into nine segments, corresponding to each day of the celebration.
