Trishula Vidya Stotra
(Vidyanath)

Salutations and Obeisance to The Cosmic Spirit
and to the immortal line of Shiva’s Naths!
Grant me the grace to align and unite with
this sacred emblem of the Naths!

Embodiment of the Nath Sampradaya,
Staff of Attainment,
A herald, a standard held high,
Magick wand of transmutation,
Lightning rod that receives,
Lightning rod that projects,
Active or passive, masculine or feminine,
Embodiment of Mysticism, Magick, and Mind.

A key that unlocks,
Center of the zonule’s Inner Sanctum,
Holy of Holies,
Divining rod,
Bindu flanked by Bhairava’s flames,
Intersection of infinite cosmic threads,
Guiding beacon of the third eye.

Expression of the mystical number,
Three prongs multiplying 3 x 3 x 3:

Insight, Intuition, Imagination
Sattva, Rajas, Tamas
Ida, Sushumna, Pingala

Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva
Saraswati, Lakshmi, Kali
Past, present, future

Three strokes of ashes
The three eyes
Iccha, Jnana, Kriya

Consort of the spinal snake,
I embrace you
And place you
In my Central Channel.
I empower you to empower me
and to assist in my Work
to unite with Divine Consciousness.
