Goddess Ambika, also known as Durga Maa and Ambe Maa, is one of the Goddesses, who is worshipped and accepted by many religions in India. In West Bengal, Amba Mata is known as Durga Maa. She is also known as Amba Maa, Bahuchara Maa, Kalika Maa, Bhadrakali Maa, Maa Bhavani and many more names.

Goddess Ambika represents the power of Sahaj Prakruti!
Goddess Ambika is Adhya Shakti i.e. The original energy force. She has the divine power to destroy your worldly obstacles and grant energy to your worldly self (Prakruti), thus helping it become natural.

Goddess Ambika enables your Prakruti to become natural and spontaneous (sahaj). When your personality remains and behaves in a natural state, then it is referred to as Sahaj Prakruti.

How do we please Ambe Maa?
Ambe Maa gets pleased when she sees us trying our best to abide by her rules!

Do you know that the enlightened Ones (Gnanis) always abide by every rule of all the celestial Gods and Goddesses (Dev and Devis)?

Gnanis never break or violate any of their rules, and He gives them their due respect, by consulting with them before taking any important steps. That is why the three Goddesses i.e. Goddess Ambika, Goddess Saraswati and Goddess Lakshmi always remain pleased with the Gnani, giving Him immense protection by always being present around Him. The grace of all the celestial Gods constantly flows upon the Gnani and they are always with Him, providing endless support in the work for the world's salvation!

If you choose to abide by their laws, the Goddesses will also be pleased with you.

Ambalal M. Patel was a civil contractor by profession. In June 1958, spontaneous Self-Realization occurred withi

A Gnani Purush is One who has realized the Self and is able to help others do the same. Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan used to go from town to town and country-to-country to give satsang (spiritual discourse) and impart the knowledge of the Self, as well as knowledge of harmonious worldly interactions to everyone who came to meet him. This spiritual science, known as Akram Vignan, is the step-less path to Self-realization.

Grave danger in uprooting a Guru Do not accept a known guru as guru, and if you do, then do not turn your back on him. Use a pot if you do not like him. The pot will not have any problems. Worship it because your buddhi (intellect) will not be active there and your work will get done. Now who would be so careful that he would not allow his intellect to interfere? How can one understand all this? Questioner: At the time we make someone our guru, he appears to be very good, he

Questioner: If we surrender to the great souls that lived thousands of years ago, can that be considered surrender? Can we make any progress through such surrender or do we need to surrender to a living great man? Dadashri: You can progress even through Paroksha (indirectly- one not currently living).
