Maha
Tripurasundari assumes all forms; she is
Atman, Brahman-consciousness. She is free from all dichotomy, including that of
being vs. non-being. Thus, she simply is, and is Pure Consciousness.
Tripurasundari
takes on the following three forms: a gross, physical aspect (sthula; her icon),
a subtle form (suksma; her mantra), and a transcending supremacy (para; her
yantra). While her physical icon is that to which one performs rituals, and the
Sri Cakra is Lalita's creative manifestation, the mantra (subtle form) is the
essence of Lalita.
