In Triveṇī Vidyā, we worship Vanadurgā in three principal forms — as Bhagavatī, as Vanadurgā herself, and as Sarva Maṅgalā Nārāyaṇī (Śrī Lakṣmī herself). The mantras for each of these divine forms have been revealed and published. It is directed that a seeker should choose only one form — their Iṣṭa Devatā — along with her corresponding name and mantra.

The Kanaka Vanadurgā form represents the very core and culmination of the entire Ārādhanā of Bhagavatī within Triveṇī Vidyā. In this rūpa, there is nothing beyond; nothing higher. When the mind beholds this form, it falls silent — realizing that the search has reached its sacred end. It no longer seeks countless “beyonds,” for it has found the infinite within her.

There is, in truth, no difference between Śrī Garuḍārūḍha Śrī Lakṣmī and Mahābalavyāghrārūḍhā Vanadurgā. Yet, in one’s personal sādhana, the penance undertaken must culminate in the vision of the Goddess as she has been sought — that very form which the heart has longed for with deepest intensity. Such realization is not imaginary; it is the living reality of devotion.

To be honest, the heart beats most intensely where longing is purest. It is beyond description. Thus, with this, the Ārādhanā of Vanadurgā attains its fulfillment — for this is her supreme and final form.
