Verses in Sanskrit and Transliterated to IAST.
अथ बालात्रिपरु ापञ्चाङ्गम ् बालापटलम ् ।
atha bālātripurāpañcāṅgam bālāpaṭalam |
From here, the discussion is on the five limbs of Srividya Bala Tripura Sundari.
The five limbs are:
1. Patala – forms of Goddess like Yantra (visual form), mantra (sound form), dhyana (meditation
form), etc.
2. Paddhati – method of worshiping Goddess
3. Kavacha – armor for protection
4. Sahasranama – thousand names of Goddess
5. Stotra – hymn praising the Goddess
The first subsidiary text in the five limb, the Patala is discussed in verses that follow.
कै लासशिखरासीनं भगवन्तमुमापततम ् ।
चन्रार्धमुकु टं देवं सोमसूर्ाधग्ननलोचनम ् ॥ 1 ॥
kailāsaśikharāsīnaṃ bhagavantamumāpatim |
candrārdhamukuṭaṃ devaṃ somasūryāgnilocanam || 1 ||
Lord Shiva, the husband of Uma was seated on the peak of Kailasa mountain. He had crescent moon
on his diadem, and his three eyes were moon, sun and fire. (This verse including the 3 eyes as moon,
sun and fire has much depth and tantric significance, but we will limit to verbal simple meaning in this
translation.)
गजचमधपरीर्ानं ववरूपाक्षं सुर ार्चधतम ् ।
गणगन्र्वधर्क्षेन्र देवासरु नमस्कृ तम ् ॥ 2 ॥
gajacarmaparīdhānaṃ virūpākṣaṃ surārcitam |

gaṇagandharvayakṣendra devāsuranamaskṛtam || 2 ||
Lord Shiva wearing elephant skin and having three eyes, was worshipped by the Gods.
The Gandharvas, Yakshas, Devas and Asuras were bowing with respect.
ववहसन्तं जपन्तं च पठन्तं च मुहुमुधहुुः ।
उत्थार् प्रणता भूत्वा चेदं पृच्छतत भैर वी ॥ 3 ॥
vihasantaṃ japantaṃ ca paṭhantaṃ ca muhurmuhuḥ |

utthāya praṇatā bhūtvā cedaṃ pṛcchati bhairavī || 3 ||
After worshiping her lord, with prayers and praises, Godess Bhiravi (wife of Shiva/Bhirava) rose up
and bowed to the lord. She started asking queries to the lord.
We see that Agama approach is followed in this scripture where Goddess takes the role of asking
questions and Shiva answers. In Nigama approach, Shiva asks questions and Goddess answers.
श्रीभैरवी ।
भगवन ् करुणाम्भोर्े सवाधगमवविारद ।

O Lord, who is the ocean of compassion and revealer of agamas.
O Sureshvara, with your grace I was able to hear the various vidyas.

śrībhairavaḥ |
śṛṇu devi pravakṣyāmi pañcāṅgaṃ sādhakeṣṭadam |
paṭalaṃ paddhatiṃ varma tathā nāmnāṃ sahasrakam || 6 ||
Shri Bhairava replied:

Listen Devi as I reveal the five limbs of Goddess Bala desired by sadhakas, which has the following sub
texts - Patala - Forms, Paddhati - Methods, Kavacha - Armor, Shasranama - thousand names.
स्तवराजं महादेवव िृणुष्वैक ाग्रमानसा ।

Final sub text being hymns of praises called Stavaraja. O Mahadevi, listen to this with one pointed
focus. Shri Bala Parameshwari bestows both materialistic wellbeing and spiritual liberation.

rājyaṃ deyaṃ śiro deyaṃ gṛhaṃ lakṣmīyutaṃ tathā |

sarvaṃ deyaṃ mahādevi na deyamidamuttamam || 8 ||
O Mahadevi, one may give away kingdom, life, house, wealth and prosperity, and everything one
possesses. But this vidya should never be given away (to those who are not true spiritual seekers).
अस्र्ा ववदर्ार्ाुः सदृिी ववदर्ा नान्र्ा कलौ र्ुगे ।

śrībālātripurāvidyā śīghraṃ siddhipradā smṛtā || 9 ||
There is no other Vidya resembling this Vidya, suitable for Kali Yuga. Shri Bala Tripura vidya gives
siddhi (accomplishment in Sadhana) quickly.

deyā śiṣyāya śāntāya gurubhaktiratāya ca |
nābhaktāya pradātavyā vidyeyaṃ parameśvari || 10 ||
It should be revealed only to disciples who have control over senses, and who are devoted to their
Guru. O Parameshvari, this vidya should not be revealed to a disciple that is not dedicated to spiritual
path.
मन्िोदर्ारं तथा र्न्िं प्रस्तारं ध्र्ानमेव च ।

prathamaṃ śṛṇu deveśi mantroddhāraṃ phalapradam |

gopanīyaṃ prayatnena yena siddhiḥ prajāyate || 12 ||
O Deveshi, first listen to the unfolding of the fruitful mantra. All effort should be made to conceal it,
as knowledge of it gives Siddhi.
वानभवं कामराजश्च िग्ततमध्र्ेऽशभर्ं न्र्सेत ् ।

vāgbhavaṃ kāmarājaśca śaktimadhye'bhidhaṃ nyaset |
namo'nte devi bālāyā mantro'yaṃ cāṣṭavarṇakaḥ || 13 ||
The mantra is formed by combining aiṁ - Vagbhava Bija, klīṁ - Kamaraja Bija, sauḥ - Shakti Bija, and
adding Namah at the end. Mantra of Bala is aiṁ - klīṁ - sauḥ namah
नावप ववघ्नो न वािौचो न वारतनर्मस्तथा ।

nāpi vighno na vāśauco na vāraniyamastathā |

svayaṃ siddho mahādevi mantrarājaḥ kalau yuge || 14 ||
No obstacles, No impurity and No restrictions are linked to this mantra. O Mahadevi, it is the King of
Mantras in the Kali Yuga which can make a person a Siddha.

dakṣiṇāmūrtipaṅktyau ca muniśchandaḥ kramāt smṛtam |

devatā tripurā bālā ādyante bījaśaktike || 15 ||
For Mantra - Dakshinamurti is the Seer, Pankti is the Metre for pronunciation, and Goddess for the
mantra is Tripura Bala. "Aim" is the (Bija) Seed and "Sauh" the (Shakti) Energy.
तलीं कीलकं समाददष्टं र्मधक ामाथधमुततर्े ।

klīṃ kīlakaṃ samādiṣṭaṃ dharmakāmārthamuktaye |

śirasi vadane devi hṛdaye guhyadeśake || 16 ||
"Klim" is the Keelakam (key to unlock). For Sankalpa (stating purpose) - Its application is for attaining
Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. Nyasa is to be done on top of head, heart region and reproductive
region.

The various Nyasa include Kara Nyasa (for Hands) and Shadanga Nyasa (for six key regions), which are
done with the bijas in the mantra, O Maheshvari.
Now I will reveal the dhyana form for meditation, for the benefit of sadhakas.
रतताम्बरां चन्रकलावतंसां समुदर्दाददत्र्तनभां त्रिनेिाम ् ।
ववदर्ाक्षमालाभर्दानहस्तां ध्र्ार्ाशम बालामरुणाम्बुज स्थाम ् ॥ 19 ॥

Goddess Bala is to be meditated as wearing red clothes, with a crescent moon on her forehead,
effulgent as the rising sun and with three eyes. She has four hands, holding a book and a rosary,
showing the gestures of protection and blessing, and she is seated on a red lotus.

iti dhyātvā mahādevīṃ japenmantraṃ susiddhidam |

lakṣatrayaṃ puraścaryāvidhau sādhakasattamaḥ || 20 ||
The sadhaka should meditate on this form while repeating the mantra for success in achieving Siddhi.
The sadhaka needs to repeat the mantra 3,00,000 times (japa) before doing Purascharana.
Purscharana is a ritual for attaining siddhi. In Purascharana, 1/10 of japa count is used doing homa
(offering in fire), 1/10 of homa count is used for tarpana (liquid oblation), 1/10 of tarpana count is
used for marjana (self clensing) and 1/10 of marjana count is for bhojana (to feed).

Now I reveal the Yantra of Goddess Bala, which is not easily obtained and which bestows both
materialistic wellbeing and spiritual liberation.

The Yantra has a Bindu in the center of a triangle, which is surrounded by eight triangles, this is
further surrounded by eight petals, adorned with three circles and also has an enclosure.
O daughter of Himavan (Himalaya mountan), this yantra of Bala along with her attendant deities
destroys greed. Vishnu and Brahma offers homage to this yantra revealed by me .

layāṅgamidamākhyātaṃ prayogāñ śṛṇu pārvati || 38 ||
A Kaula should worship using the five makaras according to the rules of Kaulachara.
Note: The five makaras would mean Madya (wine), Mamsa (meat), Matsya (fish), Mudra (parched
rice) and Maithuna (copulation) for a Vamachari (left hand path follower) and these five offerings are
replaced with substitutes by Mishrachari (mixed path follower).
The mantra sadhaka should worship Mahadevi in the bindu ( center of the yantra) with Akshata mixed
with Gandha (grain mixed with scent like sandal pasta), Pushpa (flowers), Dhoopa (incense), Dipa
(flame) and Jala tarpana (liquid oblation). This is popularly called Layanga.
Note: The Dakshinachara method (right hand approach) of worship is suggested as Layanga. Here the
5 offerings are Jala, Gandha, Pushpa, Dhupa and Dipa corresponding to five elements.
Parvati, next I will tell you the application methods.
र्ान ् ववर्ार् मनुुः िीघ्रं शसदर्र्भाग ् भवतत ध्रुवम ् ।

vaśīkāraṃ tathoccāṭaṃ śāntikaṃ pauṣṭikaṃ tathā |
etatsādhanamācakṣe sārabhūtaṃ manoḥ priye || 40 ||
The sadhaka who is skilled in performing these rites, gets results quickly. The application s are
(Stambhan) Paralysing, (Mohanam) Deluding, (Maranam) Killing, Attracting (Akarshanam),
Subjugating (Vashikaranam), Driving Away (Ucchadanam), Peace Making (Shantikam) and Healing
(Poushtikam). The key to obtaining results is proper sadhana of Goddess Bala.

This appilication methods are to be revealed to only those devoted to Goddess and needs to be
concealed from pashus (animal like - materialistic without any spiritual inclination).
(Stambhan) Paralysing - On the first day of the Waxing Moon, the sadhaka needs to take bath and
perform daily rites. By midday the sadhaka has to go to a deserted place. Here the sadhana has to
perform japa and then homa (offering on fire pit). The fire offering using mantra of Bala, should be
1/10 count of japa (similar to purascharana). The offerings done includes ghee, payasam (type of
pudding), curd and so forth. After performing fire oblation to the Goddess, then person gains the
ability to paralyze.
दिे सार्ं श्मिाने तु जपेदुलूक ववष्टरुः ।

bhūtākhye vāsare devi gatvā pretālayaṃ niśi || 45 ||
(Mohanam) Deluding - The sadhaka has to go to the cremation ground by dusk and perform japa of
Bala mantra on a seat made of owl feathers. Next fire oblation (homa) which is 1/10 of japa count.

ayutaṃ ghṛtamatsyaṇḍa padmamuktaiṇaromabhiḥ |

homo vidheyo variśairvāsavo dāsatāṃ vrajet || 50 ||
Then the sadhaka should offer ghee, fish, eggs, lotus, pearls, and body hair of deer as offering in fire
pit. By performing this, the sadhaka is able to subjugate and enslave others.

छागमांसं ररततं च महापग्ु ष्टुः प्रजार्ते ।
इदं रहस्र्माख्र्ातं सवधतत्त्वतनरूपणम ् ॥ 56 ॥
vīro daśāṅkasāhasrīṃ hunettatra daśāṃśataḥ |

ghṛtakharjūramṛdvīkā nāgavallīdalasrajaḥ || 55 ||

सूर्ाधददवारेषु जपैदधिसाहस्रसंख्र्कै ुः ॥ 57 ॥
sarvasvaṃ mama deveśi rahasyaṃ gopayet kalau |

sūryādivāreṣu japairdaśasāhasrasaṃkhyakaiḥ || 57 ||

Yuga. Starting from Sunday, the sadhaka needs to recite the mula matra of Goddess Bala 10,000
times.

इत्र्ेष पटलो ददव्र्ुः स्नेहात ् तव प्रकाशितुः ।
गोप्र्ाद गोप्र्ो गोप्र्तरो गोपनीर्ुः स्वर्ोतनवत ् ॥ 58 ॥
sarvasiddhimavāpnoti nātra kāryā vicāraṇā |

ityeṣa paṭalo divyaḥ snehāt tava prakāśitaḥ |
gopyād gopyo gopyataro gopanīyaḥ svayonivat || 58 ||
There is no doubt that such a sadhaka will get all Siddis.

Lord Bhirava says: Thus the divine patala (first limb) has been revealed out of my love for you
Bhairavi. Conceal it, the way you would hide your own yoni.
इतत श्रीरुरर्ामले तन्िे भैर वभैर वीसंवादे श्रीबालात्रिपुर सुन्दरीपटलुः ॥
iti śrīrudrayāmale tantre bhairavabhairavīsaṃvāde śrībālātripurasundarīpaṭalaḥ ||
Thus ends Sri Bala Tripura Sundari paṭalaḥ, revealed from the conversation between Bhairava and
Bhairavi, in Rudra Yamala Tantra.
