WP:INDIA Banner/Tripura Addition

Note: {{WP India}} Project Banner with Tripura workgroup parameters was added to this article talk page because the article falls under Category:Tripura or its subcategories. Should you feel this addition is inappropriate , please undo my changes and update/remove the relavent categories to the article -- Amartyabag ^TALK2ME 11:10, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Please correct:

• • As it is said in Lalita sahasranama, 'Na shathaya na dushtaya na vishwasaya karhichith sri mathra bhakti yuktaya sri vidya raja vediney'....

This quote in the article is not part of the official 'Lalitaa Sahasranaama', not correctly transcribed, apparently not even sanskrit. Please correct. Tantric faiths tend to be very complex; please treat them with due accuracy! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.49.84.1 (talk) 22:06, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

This does really need to be addressed. I've moved this section down to the bottom of the article in a Sri Vidya subsection, but will need time to pull references and rewrite the section totally.

UPDATE: I've removed this entirely and replaced it with a single line and a link to the Sri Vidya page. The entire section was irrelevant to the discussion of the goddess, not to mention unsupported by references, and written from a non-objective point of view. I would recommend to future authors that any discussion of Sri Vidya on this page be directly related to Tripurasundari specifically.

tripura etymology

the monier williams explanation of PURA in TRIPURA is problematically specific. Maybe if we included an explanation of the legend of the TRIPURA it would make sense, but it seems to make the section confusing. Three cities seems the simplest and most accurate translation to present first (we all know Monier Williams didn't know much about tantra when he made his dictionary). Alternately, Christopher Wallis translates this as Three Citadels (in Tantra Illuminated) and claims they refer to her three forms. The translation of three worlds is obviously poetic and not literal, which is fine if presented as such. But the literal translation, Beautiful Woman (Sundari) of the Three Cities/Citadels (Tripura) is very difficult to glean from this section as is. Iṣṭa Devatā (talk) 16:21, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Tripura Sundari

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Tripura Sundari's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Debbarma1996":

• From List of Indian state and union territory name etymologies: Debbarma, Sukhendu (1996). Origin and growth of Christianity in Tripura: with special reference to the New Zealand Baptist Missionary Society, 1938–1988. Indus Publishing. p. 20. ISBN 978-81-7387-038-5.
• From Tripura: Debbarma, Sukhendu (1996). Origin and growth of Christianity in Tripura: with special reference to the New Zealand Baptist Missionary Society, 1938–1988. Indus Publishing. p. 20. ISBN 978-81-7387-038-5. Archived from the original on 29 April 2016. {{cite book}}: Unknown parameter |deadurl= ignored (|url-status= suggested) (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 19:51, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Regarding Page move from Tripura Sundari to Lalita Tripura Sundari

Hi @245CMR: @Redtigerxyz: I am suggesting to move from Tripura Sundari to Lalita Tripura Sundari. Since it is the full and actual name. And also more than Tripura Sundari the name "Lalita" is more famous. We can go with that if possible — as "Lalita (goddess)" or "Lalita Devi". What is your opinion on this - MRRaja001 ^(talk) 15:31, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

She is known by various name - Shodashi, Lalita, Rajarajeshwari, Tripura. S. Shankaranarayan, Kinsley, Frawley call her Tripura-sundari in their books on the Mahavidyas. I suggest no change in name. Also, Gaudiya Vaishnavas regard Lalita as the chief gopi of Krishna-Radha and thus a goddess. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 15:57, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

In most of the sources I encountered, Tripura Sundari is more commonly used..245CMR.•^👥📜 16:04, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

@Redtigerxyz: @245CMR: Okay, I agree with you. - MRRaja001 ^(talk) 16:15, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Unintelligible

This section on her legend is almost unintelligible. It needs thorough editing. 75.162.188.28 (talk) 23:19, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing that out! Skyerise (talk) 00:29, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
