Guru, mantra and ishta are the three points of the siddha trikut. The siddha trikut is the triangle which represents one's sadhana. Guru sits at the apex and gives shaktipat, initiates one into the sadhana, guides and nurtures them. Becomes their ray of light in the darkness. He's the one who introduced the seeker to his/her ishta devata. Ishta devata is the one responsible for one's accomplishments. He's always there with the seeker protecting them from problems, giving them

After rescuing and re-establishing her in the creation he went to Hiranyaksha demo

Nowadays it has become a fashion to insult and ignore the shastras. Everybody is behaving in an unruly and Neo rational way. They think that they can bend the shastras according to their whims. Everybody wants to become a famous kathavachak/ devotee. They are even misleading people into giving up on shastrokta upasana and asking them to just dance and sing in the name of god. Many are promoting nama japa without following nitya karma according to the shastras. They say that t

According to the texts, Kalau Chandi Vinayako is proclaimed but Keshavah Sarvakale is also written. And in the worship related to Panchadevatas, these five functions of creation, sustenance, destruction, control and grace are performed by the Supreme Soul in the form of Surya, Vishnu, Shiva, devi (shakti) and Ganesha. None of these five is bigger or smaller in comparison to each other. But there is one thing, that Shakti is never independent, she always remains in the shelter

I am the part and parcel of that supreme soul. Me and him are inseparable faces of same reality".

Shri Vidyarnav Tantra, Maha Nirvana Tantra Kularnav Tantra, Tantra Saar Diksha Rahasya etc. talks about mutual examination of Guru and disciple which can be known by studying the original texts.
