Default Kundalini Shakti


The great Hatha Yoga classics (Hatha Yoga Pradipika and Siva Samhita)
clearly state that the awakened Kundalini "binds a fool but leads to
liberation for the wise".
Shakti is indeed the Self and reveals Herself to be so. We call it
Maya which means Mother. Maya can also be roughly translated as
illusion. It really means supremely magical which makes anything
possible. Everything is magical due to the force of Imagination. This
Imagination is not independent of the Self. It can be called the
energy of consciousness in manifestation.
When the overwhelming and supreme force of Imagination withdraws into
Its Source, then arises the Supreme State of Joy and Completion,
devoid of doubt or thought, being the pure state of Self Existent
Effulgence which is Pure Consciousness itself, which relies on
nothing but is the foundation and the underlying substance for the
whole cosmos. Self-knowledge refers to this Knowing of
Sat-Chit-Ananda as One's very Being.
Even the Vedas declare that the world is unreal (seen as an
independent entity). It is Real as the Self.
Love to all
Harsha

Namaste Harsha,

I agree with you to the Saguna level, or Sakti level but on
liberation according to Ramana it all disappears there is only
Nirguna. So using Kundalini Sakti is not advaita but dvaita or
perhaps visishatadvaita as that is the Ishatadevata........Sat-Chit-
Aananda is also Saguna.............ONS...Tony I hear echos here

Dear Harshaji:

What would we do without you?
You always say it with such beauty and Grace...


....In the scriptures and stotras of ShAktam,
it is very often said that She gives 'excellence of speech'to Her
devotees. In this very sloka (#15) that is what itsays.
Why all this importance to this Grace of the Goddess?...
Thus spake the Paramacharya.
Ps...
Now if we can just get you to format your emails to wrap better.
Good thing you are not incarnate as a woman...
I can just see you trying to wrap a sari :-)
Better to stick to the Grace of the Soundaryalahari
Blessed Be...

LOL,

Joyce

Only grace. For or against ? Don't waste your energy. An
appearance occurs....your relationship?
Grace, love.
Who does Kundalini appear to?
If All is the Self, then Kundalini too.
Of course.....

Jai Ramana!

hello Tony,

I agree with what Shawn said, but
would love to learn about these:
Nirguna Saguna and Ishatadevata

The TRANSCENDENTAL knowledge of the SELF is revealed
through the action of the Maha Shakti Kundalini. This
is the only way in which SELF reveals its
transcendental nature.

Love,

Namaste,

This is true in as much as we are Praneaswara or kundalini itself.
The true Self or Nirguna reveals nothing. Most Sages like Ramana
talk mostly to audience at the time so one has to bear that in mind.
Ultimately even Sat-Cit-Ananda, Kundalini Sakti, Saguna Brahman is
an illusion and ultmatately don't exist. Even at Pralaya they are
subsumed in the main. As Ramana says in his theories of creation
piece, on moksha it all never happened...............ONS..Tony.

thank you Tony,

I will study what you rote, I must
look up all the sanskrit words

Translation is difficult, I tried it
to Hungarian, there all the esoteric literature was indexed during the 50
years of communist regime and words
and meaning were missing all together
