Sri Suktam

This magnificent Suktam from the Rigveda, is closely related to the description and worship of Sri. Sri, Trigunatmika Mahamaya, the conjunction of the three gunas, is the creative urge of Purusha, who manifests as the powers of desire, knowledge and action. She is the resplendent, Divine Mother of the Universe, who not only gave birth to it but protects and sustains it as well. By the power of Mahamaya, we perceive One Brahman as the multiplicity of the world.

There are 15 mantras in this Suktam – each one is distinct, with different metres, composed by different sages and worships Mother in different forms of Mahalakshmi. The prayers are for Her grace and blessings to bestow upon us material prosperity, protections from all negative forces and final Liberation.

These discourses by Swami Sharadananda Sarasvati were recorded in September 2022, during the Vedanta Sadhaka Course held at Adi Sankara Nilayam.
