Revered manifestations of Divine Mother
Ammal
By Hilda Charlton
Saint Parvathi Ammal was born in the small village of Kondavil, Sri Lanka (Ceylon) and is revered in a temple erected in Her honor as the benevolent Divine Mother. She was loved for Her wisdom and for the miracles She performed for all those who came to Her; the rich and the poor She treated equally and took care of their well-being. Though She took Maha-Samadhi (passed on) in the early 1960’s, to those who believe in Her, She is Omniscient, Omnipotent, and Omnipresent, for Her miracles still continue even though She has passed from the physical plane. To invoke Ammal’s help, one must say Her name three times.
Hera
By Hilda Charlton
The beautiful Goddess Hera is the Greek symbol of wisdom, strength, and beauty. When graced with Her presence, it brings a peace and harmony upon those to whom She bestows Her blessings. She was originally worshipped as the Queen of the Sky, the Celestial Virgin, and expresses the divinity of woman. She presides over all phases of feminine existence.
Isis
By Hilda Charlton
Isis is the Goddess of the ancient Egyptians and is a symbol of the wisdom nature or the creative principle of the universe. She is the Divine Mother or bringer-forth of the perfect indwelling self within us.
“I am She who is the Goddess of women. I have instructed mankind in the mysteries. I, Isis, am all that has been, that is or shall be; no mortal man hath ever Me unveiled.”
Kali Ma
By Hilda Charlton
Kali Ma reveals herself as a fierce figure depicted with long, flowing, loose hair and a dark complexion. In one hand she holds a symbolic sword with which She destroys evil. She is the Universal Mother in the aspect of the consumer of negation, the lower human nature.
This picture is from the shrine at Dakshineswar, Calcutta, India. The full force of the power of Her inner light is felt at this shrine where Ramakrishna Paramahansa officiated as a priest in his early youth.
Kuan-Yin
By Hilda Charlton
Kuan-Yin is the ancient Chinese symbol of the World-Mother and is called the Goddess of mercy and compassion. She is the embodiment of beauty and purity, and when Her form and divine qualities are contemplated upon, they resolve themselves into delicate and musical sounds imparting peace and harmony.
Mary
By Hilda Charlton
The Virgin Mary, Mother of Jesus, is an exemplary figure, personifying impeccable faith and trust in a higher power. From this source emanates Her strength and forbearance manifested during the many trials of Her sojourn upon Earth. She stands as an inspirational symbol of womanhood deified while yet in a human form. Mary has appeared in many visions, one being at Lourdes, France, where She called Herself, “The Immaculate Conception.” This relates Her to the World-Mother concept of the divine creative principle.
This statue of Mary is in the woods of the Catskill Mountains in New York State.
Mother Earth
By Hilda Charlton
The Native Americans refer to the creative principle as “Mother Earth,” for the earth and its five elements are the source of supply for life’s preservation. All needs are met from the bosom of “Mother Earth,” therefore the planet Earth must be treated with respect and honored as the life giver by all who dwell thereon.
Narayani Amma
By Arul Thiru Sakthi Amma
AMMA'S MESSAGE:
“Unwanted desires, anger, lust, demonic behaviour, selfishness and similar such negative qualities, deprive man of knowing his real nature and get him entangled further in the waves of delusion and resulting sufferings. In the big battle of life, man is confused and chases money for creature comforts, by doing several sinful acts; and in the process goes through several difficult situations and untold sufferings. In such situations and circumstances, the Universal God Mother, the provider of sustenance and protector of all life forms, who unceasingly provides for the needs of all Her creations without asking, unbearable due the sufferings of them, decides to descend to the Earth and be one of among them.”
Mother provides the needs of the suffering humanity and shows them the righteous way to live and enjoy life. Amma has embarked upon touring several countries of the world, to bless and teach all Her beloved children of the world a greater awareness of peace, love and devotion.”

Parvathi
By Hilda Charlton
Goddess Parvathi is a symbol of the feminine divinity signifying the Sakthi or the Divine Mother creative force. She is worshipped as the daughter of the Himalayas, and depicted as the gentle, benign consort of Lord Siva.
Sarada Devi
By Hilda Charlton
Sarada Devi (1853-1920), the consort of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa, was revered as an aspect of the Divine Mother even during her lifetime. She was a living example of unconditional love, for throughout Her life She expressed wisdom, understanding, kindness, and compassion to all who turned to Her for consolation and spiritual guidance.
Saraswathi, Lakshmi, & Durga
By Hilda Charlton
Goddess Saraswathi, the Consort of Brahma, is the embodiment of the divine consciousness as expressed on earth through science, music, and the arts. She is depicted holding in Her hand, the veena, an Indian musical instrument.
Lakshmi, the consort of Vishnu, is worshipped as the Goddess of success and prosperity. She stands upon the lotus, a symbol of the soul, which can never be touched by earth existence. The lotus rises from the mud and mire, yet it is not blemished. It keeps above the water, has its roots in the earth, and is open to the sun. The lotus was as sacred to the ancient Egyptian religion as it is to the Hindu religion.
Durga is the Goddess who destroys the evil or negative tendencies in humans. She rides the tiger, which is symbolic of controlling the power of the kundalini life force.

Yeman Yah (Divine Black Mother)
By Hilda Charlton
Her beautiful ebony black face appeared in a vision with exquisitely chiseled features, and She called Herself Yeman-Yah. The Universal Mother spoke:
“I show Myself to those of My people as they can perceive. To those who need form, I am the Mother of the peoples of the plains, forests, rivers, mountains, deserts, and of the nomads. To those who need no form, I am the Light from which all form proceeds.”
Seven rays flow from Her head. Seven strands make up Her collar of seven different metals. Rays flow to Earth from Her heart and from Her hands, unceasingly blessing Her children of the Earth.
