In March 2022, I attended a 12-day online program called Paramashivoham Level 3 conducted by my Guru, HDH Bhagavan Nithyananda Paramashivam (fondly known as Swamiji). Daily the participants received different initiations into super conscious mutation that were so powerful.
One particular initiation happened on Day 6 when Swamiji initiated all the participants into the super conscious mutation of Shakti (the Manifest). He said” “Everything is Shakti” – Everything is nothing but an expression of Shakti.
The entire world is nothing but a manifestation of the cosmic spirit (Purusha) and its substance (Prakrithi). Every form, subtle and gross, is nothing but the cosmic principle in an assumed or derived state – that is why the enlightened beings declared that everything is Shakti.
From the work of a great Siddha, Thirumoolar in his book, he wrote: “She assumes a million, million forms” ~ Thirumanthiram, Verse 1102.
“One who enters the state of shakti has the feeling of identification with Shiva, without division. Then one verily becomes like the form of Shiva. In this context, it is said that Shakti is the face of Shiva” ~ Vijnana Bhairava Tantra Sutra 20.
“Just as space, direction and form are revealed by the flame of a candle or the rays of the sun, similarly Shiva is revealed by the medium of Shakti, oh dear one” ~ Vijnana Bhairava Tantra Sutra 21.
Prakrithi, the cosmic substance is the divine feminine consciousness that is responsible everything we see and experience – family, country, inner space etc.
Do you know that, in each one of us, there are three knots called granthis?
