Oḍiyāna Mahāpīṭha   4 Ādi Śaktipīṭhas  Introduction:-  According to many Śākta Texts, 4 places are considered to be the origins of Śaktism. They are called as "Caturādiśaktipīṭha" . They are the main scared seats where Kula, Krama and kaula systems, Āgamas were arised. Kubjikāmata Tantra, Jayadratha Yāmala Tantra, Umā Yāmala Tantra, Manthan Bhairava Tantra, Ambāmata Saṃhitā, Āmnāya Mañjarī etc many ancient Śākta Āgamas mentioned and described these Pīṭhas.

Who is the main deity of Durga Kula? Is it Ashtabhuja Durgambika or Chaturbhuja Jagadhatri? Answer:-  There is actually no such term "Durgāmbikā". Now-a-days people are addressing Śerāvālī Mātā (शेरावाली माता) or Mātārāṇī (माताराणी) as Aṣṭabhūjā Durgā (अष्टभूजा दुर्गा),  Parāmbikā Durgā (पराम्बिका दुर्गा) Bhavānī Durgā (भवानी दुर्गा) or Durgāmbikā (दुर्गाम्बिका).  [[ Sherawali - शेरावाली]]  But there's no such term in the Śāstras indicating the specific iconography of Śerāvālī or Sherawali . The Rudra Saṃhitā of Śiva Mahāpurāṇa didn't mention even "Durgāmbikā" term. It addressed Sadāśiva's wife as only Ambikā. But the Dakṣiṇāmūrti Saṃhitā described a Dhyāna of Durgāmbikā. It is below:—  दीपान्तर्ज्वलितारविन्दसदृशा सिंहासनस्था शिवा शूलेष्वासशरारि शङ्ख कमलाभीतीष्ट हस्तोज्ज्वला । सम्पूज्याऽमरलोक वासिभिरसावाखेलयन्ती मुदा स्वाभादीप्तनिशा महेशरमणी दुर्गाम्बिका रक्षतात् ॥   Salutations to the goddess Durgāmbikā who is the flaming potency of Fire. Her face is ...
