Maa Matangi, Also Known As Maa Uchchhishta-Chandalini, Keeps chandalas, or untouchables as company, Symbolizing That The Divine Self Shines Forth Equally From the high-born and the lower caste. Maa Matangi Represents teachings of the guru, and the continuity of spiritual instruction in the world.
Maa Matangi Demands uchchhishta, or leftover food, as a reversal of offering ritually pure food to Deities, Symbolizing freedom from the indoctrination of conditioned ideas of right and wrong, pure and impure.
Maa Matangi Teaches us That the true nature of impurity is not the failure to be ritually pure, but one’s limitation of wisdom and consciousness. Maa Matangi, therefore, Liberates consciousness from the bondages of false notions.
