Devi aadya kali then dismounted her vahan lion. She then stood at a place which became the epicenter of the universe. Then started her cosmic tandav... which is a divine dance of both creation and destruction..
An enormous amount of energy was being generated by her dance... so the dissipation of energy took place. Devi separates the energy in 3 forms.
These 3 forms are the trigunas.. named as satvik, rajasik and tamsik...
From the 3 orbs of energy arose the trigunatmika devtha, each devi representing a particular guna. The energy orb of satvik shakti became mahasarawati devi, the energy orb of rajasik shakti became mahalakshmi and the orb of tamsik shakti was mahakaali. All the trigunatmika devtha stood before devi adiparashakti.Devi adiparashakti spoke to them. "Hey, devis.. I am shakti , parashakti and you are my derivatives. My gunas are your evolution and I give you the task to complete the work which I have started.. Create a galaxy, solar system, living beings . "
All devis replied "yes" in affirmative.
Devi adiparashakti spoke "My satvik Guna represents goodness, constructive, harmonious nature thus I name you Mahasarawati.
My rajasik guna represents rajas passion, active, confused, thus you will be called Mahalakshmi.
And my very own self the tamsik shakti which is essential for harmony in all the others- tamas darkness, destructive, chaotic . I assume mahakaali..The trigunatmika devthas then created 6 gods, comprising of 3 gods and 3 goddesses thus forming trinity...
Mahalakshmi created lord Brahma and devi Lakshmi. Paramshakti(श्री) is the female expansion of genderless Parabrahmañ(ॐ). Saraswati, Lakshmi, Parvati are expansions of Aadibhagwati Paramshakti(श्री). When they are apart they are Saraswati, Lakshmi, Parvati. When they are merged they are Paramshakti.Mahasarawati created rudra and saraswati. Mahakaali created narayan and shakti.
After creating all the 6 gods the trigunatmika devtha merged into one single deity and went back to adiparashakti taking the goddesses with them.
On the endless ocean, there a snake with thousands heads floating...he was adi sesha... a light of energy beamed on the snake and sleeping vishnu awoke. From the navel of vishnu arose a lotus stalk.. it went above and bloomed. There sat lord bramha.. both vishnu and bramha were confused of their origin.. so they meditates and a nirguna shakti in form of a pillar of fire arose ... from forehead of bramha.. He was none other than adipurush mahadev .
All were lost and worried about their purpose... so they invoked the supreme power...
Devi appears before them and addresses them-
"I am Adi Parashakti. I am the owner of this universe. I am the Absolute Reality. I am dynamic in feminine form and static in masculine form. You have appeared to govern the universe through my energy. You are the masculine form of Absolute Reality, while I am the feminine form of that Reality. I am beyond form, beyond everything, and all the powers of God are contained within me. You must know that I am the Eternal limitless energy.She then said: Brahma! You will be generator of the universe; the Goddess Sharada is your consort, she will be recognized as the goddess of wisdom and the primeval sound. Lord Brahma, this goddess will be with you when you create the universe.
She continued: Lord Narayana ! You are formless, yet you take form. I assign you to be the preserver of the universe. You will take a different incarnations in order to save this universe's inhabitants. Oh Narayana! You have created Lord Brahma, and Brahma will further create thirty three kind of gods and goddesses. I am goddess Mahamaya,who has been reappear from your mystic sleep. Your consort will be goddess lakshmi. Lord Vishnu, this goddess will be with you when you rule/maintain the universe. When life evolves, you will take the form of Vishnu, the one who will perform the task of observing and preserving this universe.
At Last she instructed: "Oh Lord Rudra Shiv, the Great God, you are the personification of time, which is above all. You will perform the task of destroying and regenerating this universe. When you are formless, time stands still. It is due to my power that you become dynamic and are capable of bringing about the destruction and regeneration of this universe. Mahakali is myself, my full form, whereas Laxmi and Saraswati are just my clone, partial form but due to meditation, you will surpass all my forms. It is then that I will incarnate from your left half in my manifested form. This form will be my truest manifested form. Lord Shiva, she will perform the task of destroying evil and will be your consort.
