Tripura Rahasya is traditionally understood as being articulated through three principal sections, or yogas, each illuminating a distinct yet interrelated dimension of the nondual Śākta vision. The first is the Mahātmya Khanda, the section on the greatness of Tripurā. This portion unfolds the glory and majesty of the Goddess, narrating her exalted status and the circumstances that give rise to the transmission of the teaching. By dwelling on her greatness, this section prepares the mind and heart for deeper inquiry, orienting the seeker toward reverence and receptivity.

The second is the Jñāna Khanda, the section on knowledge, which forms the philosophical core of the work. Here the Advaita teaching is expounded from a Śākta standpoint, emphasizing the nondual nature of reality as consciousness. The nature of the Self, the appearance of the world, and the meaning of liberation are examined in a manner that invites discriminative understanding. This section addresses how true knowledge dissolves the apparent separation between the individual and the Absolute, revealing Tripurā as the very essence of awareness.

The third is the Caryā Khanda, the section on conduct or practice, which translates insight into lived spiritual discipline. It sets forth guidance on right conduct, spiritual practice, and the manner of integrating the nondual vision into everyday life. Ethical living, disciplined behavior, and forms of worship and sādhana are presented as expressions of the understanding gained through Jñāna. In this way, the text does not leave realization as a merely intellectual attainment, but shows how knowledge, devotion to the Goddess, and practical conduct form a single, coherent path.
