Aham Vimarshini is the Self-Reflective Power of Consciousness in Kashmiri Shaivism. It is one of the most exquisite and profound concepts in Kashmiri Shaivism.
While Aham Brahmāsmi of Advait Vedanta reveals the oneness of the individual with the Absolute in Advaita Vedanta.
Aham Vimarśinī in Kashmiri Shaivism explores how that Absolute becomes aware of itself through its own Saktī and expresses itself as the universe.
Aham Vimarshini encapsulates the dynamic interplay between the supreme Self (Siva) and its power of self-awareness (Saundaryalahari).
Only when Siva is aware of his qualities and about his own self, only then he's capable of creation.
In the very beginning, the Devi Mula Prakriti Bhagavati built this place for Her residence, superior to Kailasa, Vaikunta and Goloka. Verily no other place in this universe can stand before it. Hence it is called Manidvipa or Sarvaloka as superior to all the Lokas
Devi Bhagavata Purana states:
A beautiful woman seated on the most excellent of couches, wearing a red garland and red clothes, anointed with red sandalwood paste, red-eyed, having a beautiful face, red-lipped, glorious.
It can be daunting and make people uncomfortable as it is raw naked form of the divine Mother, free from any filters of social norms.
Devi is called Śrī Mata i.e the Mother that gives birth to the entire universe.
How are we Born ??
The obvious answer is through the female genital (Yoni). That is the place where the procreative power of God lies.
The Male genital is one that sows the seed of creation and the female nourishes it and gives life to it. She is source of creation
For Śakteyas who worship the Motherhood of every woman, she is called "Bhagārādhyā" in Lalitā Sahasranāma. Bhagā means the yoni, the female genital, and she is worshipped in that.
Nice fictional story but the reality is Francis Xavier was a Christian fanatic who established the Goa Inquisition, which lead to killing of large numbers of hindus and Jews and Destruction of temples.
Xavier and Jesuits unleashed terror in Goa. Hindus & Jews were forcefully converted by means of torture, bribery , threat, social & economical pressure to accept christanity.
Xavier's did it because Goa was a centre of Hindu learning and he knew it isn't easy to proselytise
Hindu practices including idol worship was forbidden and Hindus were punished physically for not accepting Christianity.
Francis De Souza; a Jesuit historian historian himself admits that efforts were made destroy not just hinduism but also cut off judaism.
In the Bhairava Agamas of Kashmiri Saivism, includes the worship of Amriteshvar Bhairav. This form of Bhairava holds Amruta of Immortality.
In the Bhairav Agamas, Parvati asks Siva:
O Lord your eyes loaded with tears of compassion are so beautiful. Please tell me how these eyes are capable of such a flare that it can reduce Death itself to ashes.
Síva replies:
" O my beloved! Be in a state of Yoga and then you will understand the secret of the flare in my eyes. My eyes are brimming with amrita of life. "
