In terms of etymology, Bagala is “rope” or “rein” and Mukhi “face” or “image”. Thus, Bagalamukhi is the Devi whose face has the formidable power (through her subtle radiation) to control or to rule any situation or form in manifestation. #Sanatandharma#hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
One of the principal aspects of Bagalamukhi is related to speech and that is why she resonates with the Great Cosmic Wisdom or Mahavidya Ma Tara, sometimes she is even considered one of her forms. #Sanatandharma#hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
It is easy to understand this connection if we realize that intense subtle radiation is often related to manifestation of light; thus, Ma Tara manifests as Bagalamukhi when the subtle sound energies of manifest as light. #Sanatandharma#hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
A practical example: A very inspiring lecture which fascinates the audience to the point that it becomes immobile and fixated both physically and mentally on the speaker. #Sanatandharma#hinduism
Hence, Bagalamukhi is the fascinating radiation emerging from subtle Divinity endowing the speaker with huge force and a paralyzing impact upon his listeners. #Sanatandharma#hinduism
She grants the speaker the power of making decisive & final assertions as well as conclusions emphatically and eloquently and of declaring his/her opinions on the fundamental truths of life with great authority and impact. #Sanatandharma#hinduism
That is why Bagalamukhi is appealed to with fervor when one looks for inspiration in his/her speeches, debates and assertions.
Also because He is the destroyer of the devatas, as per a Smrti shloka quoted by Svaami Vijayeendra Teertha Shripaadagalu, in Shaiva-Sarvasva Khandanam of Nyaayamauktikamaala.

#SanatanaDharma #hinduism https://t.co/syF74bOq87twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
One should never reveal certain things in front of others.
It’s great if you are loved and respected by all, but don’t show it off in front of others- doing so will lower your respect in the eyes of others
#SanatanaDharma #hinduism https://t.co/2pRf0avyqJtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
If you have to face insult at any point in your life, it’s best to keep it to yourself; telling that to everyone you know will make you feel insulted in front of others as well.

Tantra is an abstract religion, it doesn't have a clear definition. Different seekers define it differently, many not even consistent with each other. Tantra, though, is clearly recognized as being very different from the ancient Hindu Vedic tradition. #SanatanaDharma#Hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Before trying to delve into tantrism, it is important to understand that this is not a single coherent system. It is rather a tradition that gradually evolved from an accumulation of practices and rituals, in order to attain the grace of the divine. #SanatanaDharma#Hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The practitioner of tantra uses his own prana or divine energy in order to harness it to the universal prana, thereby attaining his goal. The goal in question could be either spiritual, material or both. #SanatanaDharma#Hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Tantra in Hinduism could be considered to be parallel to the Hindu Vedic tradition. Tantra contains written records of the Agama, which comes in four main parts, as follows: #SanatanaDharma#Hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Jnana or metaphysical knowledge
Yoga or meditative practices
Kriya or ritual practices
Charya or ethical and religious principles of conduct #SanatanaDharma#Hinduism
Most of the staunch Hindu Vedic practitioners, however, consider the Tantras to be anti-Vedic in character and hence, altogether shun both the cult and the practitioners of the same. #SanatanaDharma#Hinduismtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
The universe consists of a Mahabrahmanda, or grand Cosmos, and of numerous Brihatbrahmanda, or macrocosms evolved from it. As is said by the Nirvana Tantra, all which is in the first is in the second. #spirituality#Cosmostwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
In the latter are heavenly bodies and beings, which are microcosms reflecting on a minor scale the greater worlds which evolve them. "As above, so below." This mystical maxim of the West is stated in the Vishvasara Tantra as follows: #spirituality#Cosmostwitter.com/i/web/status/1…
