beejakshara mantra Ucchishta Matangi

Since I have been reading and trying to understand on a basic level the energies of Mahavidyas, my recent interest has been " Matangi" Mahavidya. Matangi word itself has the main element in it --- " Mata" which means thought which in turn relates to an opinion either mental or verbal. Thus the true epitome of Mata/Mother/Maa. She is understood to be the daughter of Sage " Matanga"

Green color- Mercury, Veena/lute- Music,
Lotus- Knowledge and be serene, goddess
of extra ordinary learning, spiritual instruction

For me her significance is greater than her original meaning or powers or energies, especially due to the association of the word " Chandalini". In Indian society " Chandal" is a person who does the work of burning the dead bodies /funeral worker, which is looked down upon and form one group of the Untouchables or Outcastes. In olden times as per rules Shudras/Outcastes were the ones to eating left overs. Interestingly Matangi is also referred to as "Chandalini" , the reason being " Chandali" the frontal nadi in Kundalini practices which flows from tip of the tongue to the tip of the genitals and the practice of upward flow of sexual energy ( hara chakra) to spiritual energy ( third eye chakra) , this in turn burns the materialistic identity to a state of enlightment / greatness.This is like how the Chandal burns the physical body similarly the "Chandali" burns the association of one with Physical Identity to Higher self.

Since for this practice it is said one needs a guru hence one takes the knowledge left over from the guru as ones own hence " association of Matangi with Left Over". This is also in every practice we listen to the instruction of a guru " speech" and take his speech/left over from his knowledge as our own. It is this used/left over knowledge which we combine with ours and make it innovative or personal experience. Thus we mimic our guru /copy.

Another interesting aspect is Mata " Matangi" being referred to as Ucchishta-being the greater touch, as she is believed to have touched the lips of shiva and hence the bliss. This Ucchista Matangi- Bestower of all boons/true enlightment. All this is opposite of the normal protocols associated with Gods/Goddess.

Mata Matangi is supposed to rule the throat chakra which governs speech and true expression from our hearts. The ultimate residue or representation of who we are is by our throat chakra- Divine Truth. This chakra is inturn related to vibration - and Matangi also relates to the vibration of each nadi/nada. Matangi is also referred to as Mantrini ( again throat chakra) which is ucha- aran/speaking of each mantras hence helping us to communicate with inner self and Gods- again an element of Throat Chakra.
Matangi rules all kind of expressive occult powers, counseling, teaching, communication, music.

Understandings from Mata Matangi

Matangi Mudra

• Nothing /No one is outcaste we are all in some ways the same 
• Wordly identity will burn someday and your true self will be revealed to you in some ways
• Doing an act which is against the societal rules but is acceptable to self is representation of one's true expression and oneness.
• The parrot represents- represents the true nature of the world, one cannot escape one's acts, what goes around comes around.
• Music not means pleasure /pleasing to hear but also that we need to instil harmony within ourselves and ignore or remove the noise around and be in harmony.
• The Third eye is representation that we must use our inner knowledge for any action we take, its more than what meets the eye
• This one is ofcourse diffiult--- Speak the truth and only the truth, your words should bring everything into harmony.
• Worship of Matangi will allow one to speak the words of SHiva--  true words which serve all". Sometimes it is important to take the untruth out of some people for greater good. Hence Vishikaran comes into picture, but its the practitioner who has to understand the higher good in this.

For practice- Matangi Mudra- Inner Harmony and rulership

Fold your hands in front of the manipura chakra/stomach and point both middle finger and interlace them together. Direct your attention towards the stomach area for 5 minutes. This resolves inner tension/conflicts, improves digestion, relieves tension in jaw areas, calms the heart, front and back solar plexus chakra.
