An Octet to the Nourishing Mother !



It is Cosmic Creative Intelligence, which is relatively Absolute and absolutely relative, which sustains the universe. The entire Cosmos is Her play and display ( Chit Vilasa Prapanchoyam ).

Annapoorna Ishwari is the Nourishing aspect of the Mother Divine. This octet is equivalent to the Western prayer " God, give us this day our daily bread".

This is the exoteric aspect. The esoteric aspect is that this octet contains mystic meanings which are discernible to the mystic mind. She can give not only bread but also Enlightenment !
