Shakti Worship vs Regular(Sanatanist)Worship

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

I've come across the conclusion (yes i'm late) that possession is what sets the Shakti worship apart from the regular mainstream Hindu worship. Why do you think that this is how the Divine Mother chose to set apart her worship from the norm? What are some major differences between Shakti worship and regular sanatanist worship?

Shakti means energy...Energy is everywhere and energy has the ability to go into humans and object. People say maa is soo powerful how can she enter a person? If you take moving energy for example, my fingers typing requires the same energy as your fingers typing...they are both the same energy yet only a part of the universe's moving energy all together...so maa entering people is only a very very very very small percent of her energy. Also maa gave the boon to the gods and devotees that when ever there will be evil in this world, when ever my devotees call me i will be there. If not in my form i will use people to do my work. Kaliyugs evil is man so she is using man to do her work.

 

Jai Mataji

"Possession is normally thought of as part of the 'little tradition' and confined to low caste and poor people in rural areas. Goddess possession, however, takes place in urban as well as rural areas, by low and high castes and amongst the educated as well as the uneducated. It also can occur amongst men as well as women, though the later is the most common. Possession is a way that the Goddess makes herself manifest in the world and becomes available to her devotees. It allows verbal communication between the devotee and the Goddess and also allows the human vehicle participation in her power."

sorry you got all upset..i didn't come up with that paragraph, i was quoting it from another website to see what people felt, and obviously the caste issue is something that gets people going :ponder:, and even so, the author of that essay is not saying anything bad about low caste people, he just uses that as an example of what is thought to be the common place to find possessions, but right after he says the first sentence he tells us that this is not correct because possession can be found within all castes and people who are poor or rich.

but i don't mean to sound like i'm disagreeing, because I truly agree with you bhairo!

the caste system is very wicked and i believe it's not humane, and it doesn't matter what caste you're from that defines you to certain gods and goddesses, everyone can worship the Divine, no matter where they're from!
