According to Satyanandanatha, this mantra is the praising of all the divinities to Ambal. O divine mother all the divinities have gone to fight. After winning their wars against demons, as their respect to you, they have removed their crowns and they forget and go to Ambal t have the portion of Tamboola mixed with camphor. This mantra speaks about the Supremacy of Parashakti. All tantra shastras can’t dispute the Soundarya Lahari Tantra Shastra. All these tantras, though they say Shiva-shakti are inseparable, Supremacy is attributed to parashakti. Skanda is said to be the mythical son of Shiva and Shakti. He along with Indra and Vishnu is known killed, tarakasura, padmasura, and other demons. When we look at kundalini yoga or awakening, Ganesha is said to be at mooladhara. In mooladhara, only shakti is there and always shakti tries to rise up to Sahasrara. Skanda, Indra, and Vishnu are responsible to destroy the demons inside us. We are humans and we will have demons and divinities. They fight each other every day. Always it is the demons that win over. These demons are not but Kama, krodha, Madha, matlasya. These demons are repeated sinners. These demons within us should be annihilated to maintain proper balance. One she can direct Skanda, Indra, and Vishnu can annihilate these demons. we need to pray to parashakti. Having followed the direction of parashakthi, a report has to be submitted to Ambal. As they are eager to report. They remove their crowns to mark respect to Ambal. Chandikeshwara: he used to be an ardent devotee of Shiva, When his father objected to the boy not worshiping Shiva, killed his father. Hearing the plea of a mother, Shiva resurrected Chandikeshwara’s father. As a result, Shiva took Chandikeshwara along with him and appointed him as his guard. Chadikeshwara only eats the leftover Shiva and we may call it Nirmalya. Skanda, Indra, and Vishnu went directly to Ambal, They were waiting for the tamboola, here we can quote ” Karpoora Vitika Modha samakarshi Diganthara”. It is said that the leftover of her tamboola is capable of giving immense knowledge. In Srichakra puja tamboola plays a very important role. The Leftovers of Shakti’s tamboola give full knowledge. This mantra directly conveys her grace and how Ganesha, Indra and Vishnu run to get the leftover tamboola of Devi. Everything in the universe is the manifestation of Shiva-shakti and that is the difference between sadhaka and normal people. An upasaka is a person close to god. We are Srividya Sadhaka’s. One who is a sadhaka looks at the manifestation of shiva-shakti. Whatever we see before us, in the form of Shiva-shakti. There is nothing that is not shiva-shakti. The light is Shiva and the light in all directions is shakti. It is the manifestation of consciousness and energy. “Anu renu trunakashta” means that every manifestation is divine. It is vimarsha and prakasha. If one cannot achieve this status before leaving this mortal plain the human life becomes a waste. The blessed ones get a human birth. We are the most intelligent beings where we can understand manasu, budhi, and Chitta. Shakti is para transcendent, she is also apara. The para shakti is Prakriti ( nature) and it is only prakrithi. Parashakti is shakti and Shiva. The apara shakti has two characteristics. One is auspicious and inauspicious. We are always with apara shakti. We are free to choose which vrithi we want to develop. We are made to choose something because of karma only. They are chosen by humans as per his karma and vasana. It is a cycle of progress towards knowledge. Gyana is light, in the light only we can see the truth. In the dark mind we see Maya, untruth. Even celestials have also undergone the demons. Our sadhana is to gain victory over our indriyas. The experience of Moha is within the condensed mind but the Prema is in expanded form. Sativa,Rajas and Thanos is universe. Nirguna is an unmanifested state of universe. although the Rajas is not her nature her transcendental nature, it is a state of motion where there is growth, progress, and development. Sativa is the transcendental nature, none other than Shiva which is revealed only to few and by doing everything and if that is the purpose then we should be the chosen one. It is the purpose of sadhana. Tripura hara is the name of Shiva. This verse again establishes the power and sway that Devi holds over creation. They left the Nirmalya of Shiva which is given to Chandikeshwara. They are happy to see beetle leaves in Devi’s mouth until the edible camphor is dissolved. Whenever they went battle against the demand they prayed Devi. She is the actual victory and our auspicious qualities of our Indriyas. As prana Shakti makes us vitality and skill and expertise to conquer Aditya in all respects. We need to fight them every day. Aditya s are evil forces within us After this lengthy battle, unending battle. We renew our prana Shakti as we fight. We should keep the prana Shakti always renewed. It ends up in breath. One has control in-breath, any sadhana is futile. The beetles leave chewed by Devi is Tambora, as it is a sign of aristocracy. The beetle leaves are prepared with fragrant spices, she gives them the gift of beetle leaves and they are eager to accept it. Her Tamboola is very auspicious. When the devotee offers Tamboola to Devi and he is supposed to take it as Prasada. This scene can be understood by the pride in winning over the demons.KanchiParamacharya refers to the remains of taambula‘ or betel leaf juice taken by Amba which are both red and white. The tongue, the teeth, and the lips are used in chewing ‗tambula‘. Tambula no doubt makes the mouth red but the white flakes of the camphor in the taambula look like the moon pulverised: ‗Shashi vishaadha kurpurashakala’! As Sarasvati adores Amba, she seeks to compromise with the whiteness of Sarasvati, thinks Acharya! A mouth full of betels‘ is one of the characteristics of a Sumangali‘ie. “Taambula purita mukhi daadimi kusuma prabha”or satisfied with mouthful of betel-leaf juice and likened with the redness of pomogranate flower.Having given this background, Shankaraharya explains further that the scent of Amba‘s tambula juice enabled Vishakha Indropendraih/ or Deva Senapati Kartikeya, Indra Mahendra and, Upendra Vishnu too subdue the evil energies of Daityas. Having been victorious, they rushed to pay their respective obeisances to Amba and receive their prasada in the form of the remains of Her tamboola. The poet describes the ceremony of Amba being pleased to give the prasad to Kumara, Lord Kumara Swami the Commander in chief of Deva Ganas. His spear is called Shakti which indeed the arashkti in the form of an invincible weapon. Indra tagged on to Kumara Swamis victories. Maha Vishnu has the name of Upendra, one who adheres to Indra; during the Vamanavtara, Aditi and Kashyapa, Indra‘s parents and hence Vishnu‘s name was Upendra. Before the arrival of Kumara Swami, Devas headed by Indra were in the habit of shouting victory cries that they had by themselves gained the DevaAsura‘s battles. Eventually wisdom dawned as Parashakti made them understand that without the backing of Her, they were as normal as human beings. And Amba out of compassion taught him Brahma Vidya and brought him the realization that Brahmashakti was indeed the source of all the strength: that is the Planetary Shakti divides itself into parts to become the support of the various parts or Shaktis like Pancha Bhutas and so on. This is clarified on Kenopanishad vividly.
The most important way to get the prana Shakti is to inhale, exhale and hold which is Kumbaka.
