Navratri - Day 5

Day 5 of Navratri

Ma appears in the 5th form as Skandamata - The Mother of Skanda (Kartekaya).

As Skandamata She represents Divine Knowledge.

Divine Knowledge is neither what we fill into our minds to confuse us, nor is it what we fill in our intellect to teach us judgement and definitely not what we fill into our ego to teach us discrimination.

Divine Knowledge is that which empties us, breaks our limiting belief systems, leads us into faith and Self Awareness. It is what makes us Hollow and Empty to makes us experience Oneness. It blossoms acceptance that blooms into Unconditional Love...

Accepting and Being in Awareness of the Knowledge of Divinity is what Skandamata represents. This Knowledge breaks all bondages.

Mantra:

Om Skandamatayayi Namah

Meaning : I surrender my doubting mind, judging intellect and Discriminating Ego to dissolve into Divine Knowledge that makes me hollow and empty to come into awareness of Who Am I.

Colour of the Day : Grey.
