Bhuvaneshwari
Bhuvaneshwari is a significant goddess in Hindu myths. She symbolizes creating and managing the universe. Her name comes from ‘bhuvana,’ which means universe, and ‘ishwari,’ which means goddess or queen. In Hindu beliefs, she’s one of the Dasa Mahavidyas, who are Goddesses of Wisdom.
Bhuvaneshwari is shown as a lovely goddess seated on a lotus. She has four arms, and in each hand, she holds special objects that symbolize control, knowledge, and devotion. She wears vibrant attire and jewelry, giving her a divine and majestic appearance.
Bhuvaneshwari holds immense significance in Hindu mythology as the Cosmic Creational Force. She is regarded as the origin of creation, the fundamental energy that maintains the universe’s unity. This belief is intricately woven into the religion, portraying her as the representation of ultimate reality. People venerate her to attain wisdom, knowledge, and spiritual advancement. They also invoke her assistance to surmount obstacles on their journey to personal growth.
Bhuvaneshwari is closely linked to the Muladhara (root) chakra situated at the base of the spine. This chakra is associated with feeling secure, stable, and surviving. Worshipers believe that honoring Bhuvaneshwari aids in balancing and activating this chakra, resulting in a profound sense of grounding and stability. This connection makes her a significant figure in Hindu tradition, contributing to the well-being of those who practice her worship.
In a story, Bhuvaneshwari and the other Mahavidyas came from a cosmic ocean to aid Lord Shiva against the wicked demon Andhaka. They aimed to bring balance back to the universe. With their divine assistance, Shiva gained powerful shakti, or divine energy, which restored harmony to the universe. This tale is a crucial part of cosmic balance.
In a different version of Bhuvaneshwari’s origin story, Lord Brahma, the creator of the cosmos, plays a role. In this tale, Bhuvaneshwari, symbolizing the universe, goes to Brahma and seeks the authority to oversee the cosmos. With kindness, Brahma grants her wish, assigning her the task of managing creation, upkeep, and eventual dissolution. This positions her as a central character in the cosmic dance, using her hands to guide its rhythm.
Bhuvaneshwari is regarded as the goddess of the earth, intimately linked to the elements under her influence. The earth is like her canvas, where she fosters fertility, growth, and plenty. Her identity goes beyond just the earth; she represents the primal space from which all elements originate. She embodies the core of cosmic creation.
Those who venerate Bhuvaneshwari participate in different rituals to connect with her divine essence. They present fresh flowers, light incense for a pure environment, and offer symbolic gifts like fruits and sweets to express their devotion. Reciting her mantras such as Bhuvaneshwari Ashtakam and Bhuvaneswari Kavacham calls upon her presence. Followers also meditate to link with her qualities for spiritual progress. They use special symbols called yantras, like the Bhuvaneshwari Yantra, to seek her blessings and achieve success in life.
