Namaste
A very long time ago, a Kashmir Brahman told me of Vaishno Devi. I have never been to Her Temple, which is in Jammu Kashmir. He told me She was an aspect of Durga who will marry Kalki in the future.
For some reason, today She came into my thoughts, and so I went to the website which claims to be the official site for Her temple. Here I learned She is One who was born as a Divine Girl at the time of Lord Ram, that She came from a Light that manifested from the combined tejas of Kali Ma, Sri Lakshmi and Saraswati Devi. And that, yes, Ram told Her that one day She would marry Kalki.
This strikes me as amazingly beautiful! In Her I see again the interweaving of Saiva, Vaishnav and Shakta, of Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma and all the Majestic Devi Queens.
Has anyone on the HDF ever visit Her holy Temple in Kashmir? Will She marry Kalki, and who will be allowed to attend Her wedding? All the Gods?
Here is a prayer from the site, to Her:
Moonh Maangi Muradein Poori Karne Wali Mata, which means, the Mother who fulfills whatever Her children wish for.
Om Namah Sivaya
