[176] गुह्यकाराध्या Guhyakaaraadhyaa- Worshipped in an unknown secret place and in an unknown secret manner. When love is established between Mother and the devotee, none knows how and where he worships Her. This is so because the devotees' worship is not of a particular type and particular form, in a particular place with particular materials and in a particular condition. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 720
Because he had dispensed with all accessories of worship and rituals.
When other thinks he is playing and enjoying, he may be actually worshipping Mother internally. If devotion is ripened to Love, that love will always proceeded with and developed and enjoyed most secretly, with entirely different appearances and even apparent disregard for Mother and Mother worship.
[177] गुह्यरूपिणी Guhyarupini -The secret. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 707
All the ordinary ideas of duality etc., are only true for time, but non duality is ever true. This non-duality is most secret ( Guhyaa ) not perceivable by ordinary vision, like space and light.We adore Mother who assumes the form of the Guru, and of the main secret, and is the secret knowledge. We prostrate to Her, who is beloved by Her secret devotees residing in secret places.Among the Upanishads of Mother there is one that is called the Guhyopanishad. Mother's path is described as secret of secrets.
[178] गुह्या Guhyaa - The secret. Mother is Secret of Secrets. ललिता सहस्रनाम स्तोत्र, नाम क्रमांक 624
Mysterious are the ways of Mother.
Just mark the contrast, She is comprehensible and knowable as broad day light as meant by the name Prakataakrutih, and yet, Guhyaa, most incomprehensible. By now, the reader must be able to explain the contradiction. To them whom She chooses is knowable; to them from whom She wishes to conceal Herself She is Guhyaa; but the last word is that She is Guhyaa.
