What Is God Siva's Pure Consciousness?

[Guest guest]

expression. It is through Sakti that the Impersonal Supreme Being Siva or

Nirguna Brahman becomes the Personal Being or Saguna Brahman. Siva or Nirguna

Brahman becomes the Personal Being or Saguna Brahman. Siva is the Soul of Durga

or Kali. Durga or Kali is identical with Siva. Siva is Satchidananda. Durga or

Kali is Satchidananda Mayi. Siva and Sakti are one and neither is higher than

the other. ParaShakti is pure consciousness, the substratum or primal

substance flowing through all form. It is Siva's inscrutable presence, the

ultimate ground and being of all that exists, without which nothing could

endure. Aum. ParaShakti, "Supreme Energy," is called by many names: silence,

love, being, power and all-knowingness. It is

Satchidananda--existence-consciousness-bliss--that pristine force of being

which is undifferentiated, totally aware of itself, without an object of its

awareness. It radiates as divine light, energy and knowing. Out of ParaSiva

(SIVAM) ever comes ParaShakti, the first manifestation of mind,

Superconsciousness or infinite knowing. God Siva knows in infinite,

all-abiding, loving Superconsciousness. Siva knows from

deep within all of His creations to their surface. His Being is within every

animate and inanimate form. Should God Siva remove His all-pervasive ParaShakti

from any one or all of the three worlds, they would crumble, disintegrate and

fade away. Siva's Shakti is the sustaining power and presence throughout the

universe. This unbounded force has neither beginning nor end. Verily, it is the

Divine Mind of Lord Siva. The Vedas say, "He is God, hidden in all beings,

their inmost soul who is in all. He watches the works of creation, lives in all

things, watches all things. He is pure consciousness, beyond the three

conditions of nature." Aum Namah Sivaya.
