sdhaka is sure that he is on the right path and have the final realization. The repeated clearance is denoted by vada vada and the final realization is by svh Let us now see philosophical import of the slaying of asura drughaa. This asuras name means iron hammer of a blacksmith. This will be the hardest one, and shall break or dent other any metal pieces or things. Thus we can infer the deepest misgivings and doubts of an aspirant personified as this asura, r Vagvadini devi being the personification of the repeated clearance of doubts and constant vigil in the sdhana by r Guru, which will remove these hindrance, in turn this is slaying of this asura.

Vagvdini Meditation

O Dearest Lord Datta, shower your blessings on us!!

amalakamala samsth lekhin pustakodyat karayugala saroj kunda mandragaur

dhta sasadhara khadollasi koTrapTh bhavatu bhava bhaynm bhan~gin bhrat nah

The above is meditation verse (dhyna sloka) of r vgvdini Devi, who is the upga devata, secondary attendant, of r Rjamtagi. Vk is the spoken word; vdana is its delivery, or constant interactions through spoken words. In sdhana an aspirant in initial level will have lots of doubts and misgivings. These have to be cleared with r Guru only. Bhrgavarma also says guru vkya stradau sarvatra asamayah- dont doubt the words of r Guru or the scriptures. In this order Gurus words have a preference over scriptures, thus if his words are contrary to the scriptures, they have to be obeyed to the letter and in spirit, which will only lead the seeker in the sure path of self realization.

This can be meditated as klM, which is the kamarja bija bestowing all worldly comforts and pleasures. The lotus born in muddy clay water (prthvi tatva) and its smell (gandha tatva) will represent the worldly comforts. Jasmine will represent pleasures by its intoxicating perfume. dhta sasadhara khadollsi koTrapTh: wearing a crescent moon on her crown is meditated here, the same svarupa meaning is seen in Pars meditative verse as candra kalvat . Hence the par bja sauh can be meditated here bhrat: This means one who shines forth, seen in the mantra as vgvdini bhavatu bhava bhaynm bhan~gin nah: Let our fear of the worldly activities be destroyed is the purport of this verse. The dispelling of the fear of samsra is by constant awareness and realization of the universal consciousness. This can be achieved by the grace of r Guru. The aspirant has to tread the path of sdhana as instructed by him, any doubts on the path shall be asked and cleared repeatedly, till the
