Beschreibung

Vedic Rishis propounded the process of establishing the pious earth as the abode of Mother, which later on culminated into Shaktipithas after combining the cultural and human consciousness and further calumniated as 51 Shaktipithas from numerical images in all the alphabets of Devanagari and displaying the Nadasvaras emanated from Devanagari alphabets encompassing the whole of Bharatvarsh. In the background of the whole Bharatvarsh it has been described as 'Bharat Maa' in Vishnu Purana. Around 9th-10th century, this concept was fully established and became the source of inspiration and energy for Indians. The co-ordination between the earth and Mother Power is vastly described in Rigveda (4.57.6-7) and Atharvaveda (12.1). Ten Mahapithas are also described in Mahabharata. Later on, the importance and spiritual vision of these Shaktipithas were described through 'Devi Mahatmya' and Devi Bhagavata Purana and these Shaktipithas have now been established as 'Place of Purity' or 'Divine Place' or 'Power Source Areas' due to which pilgrimage to all Shaktipithas came into being, which in present reference, is an important process for cultural, spiritual and ecological consciousness. In the aforesaid reference Shri Suresh Kumar Singh has enumerated the status of 51 Shaktipithas, their importance and the information regarding pilgrimage to these Shaktipithas in this book and has given a new dimension to the understanding of Indian culture.
