This smaller deity of Parashakti is also carved and birthed by the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism. From the time He birthed this deity, SPH always used to keep Her in His palm and chant the Devi bheeja mantra. Upon chanting the mantra and holding this deity, the mantra became installed into Her. Until today this deity vibrates powerfully with the mantra which SPH chanted. SPH's blessed childhood friend named Sampath recalls how SPH would often be gazing intensely at the deity in His palm, and sometimes even alternately gazing at Arunachala, the embodiment of Paramashiva in Hill-form and then back at the Devi deity in His palm.
In the Vishnu Purana it states:
कराग्रे वसते लक्ष्मी: करमध्ये सरस्वती ।
करमूले तु गोविंद: प्रभाते करदर्शनम् ।।
Karagre Vasate Lakshmi
Karamadhye Saraswati |
Karamule Sita Gauri
Prabhate Karadarshanam ||
Meaning : The fingertips of the palm is the dwelling of Shri Lakshmidevi, the central portion of the palm is of Shri Saraswatidevi and the base of the palm of Shri Govind; hence, one should look at the palms immediately after waking up in the morning.
As indicated from the life of the Supreme Pontiff of Hinduism, incarnation of Paramashiva, In the hands of Paramashiva dwells Parashakti in her numerous forms. Once, the biological cousin sister of SPH, Sumathi playfully pestered her Divine brother and asked why He was always gazing at His hands. Hurriedly, He told her, "Don't ask the things which you cannot understand!" Yet, she continued asking every day until finally one day He allowed her to have Darshan of the Devi who resides in His palm. In her sharing, Sumathi describes her utter shock and momentary glimpse of the state of complete thoughtlessness. She confirms, "Even though I was not able to see Devi, I know for sure she was there!"
