The Cosmic Puja or Samashti Upasana, is themeditation and worship of all the forms of divinity in existence;all the deities of the universe. Pu is punya, which means merit. Jais jata, which means giving birth. Puja is activity that givesbirth to merit.

This worship is intended to lead us tothat objective.

The Cosmic Puja or Samashti Upasana, is the meditation and worshipof all the forms of divinity in existence; all the deities of theuniverse. Pu is punya, which means merit. Ja is jata, which meansgiving birth. Puja is activity that gives birth to merit. Theaction of the greatest merit is to guide one’s awareness into thepresence of God and to maintain that presence for as long aspossible. Through puja we offer all that we possibly can to God andthereby experience peace. This worship is intended to lead us tothat objective. Swami Satyananda Saraswati has translated theCosmic Puja so that we may use it to instill within us that qualityof true reverence for all of life in which we actually payattention. By performing this worship we become so absorbed in theunion between the perceiver and the object of perception that we gobeyond all duality. Derived from the Chandi Path, the Cosmic Pujadescribes methods of worship the Divine Mother in her forms asMahakali, Mahalakshmi, and Mahasarasavati. Included is the “PanchDevata Puja,” the worship of the five divisions of the HinduDharma: Shiva, Shakti, Vishu, Ganesh, and the nine planets. Otherpujas in this book include: bhuta shudhi (enlivening energycenters), the Yantra Puja, Agni Prajvalitam (enkindling of sacredfire), the establishment of the Sanskrit alphabet in the body, theestablishment of life, worship of the Divine Mother’s body, theworship of her divine weapons, and much more.
