Kundalini Sakthi
“Looking for your light,
I went
out:
It was
like the sudden dawn
of
a million million suns,
A
ganglion of lightnings
for my wonder.
O Lord
of Caves,
if
you are light,
there can be no metaphor"- Allama Prabhu
"In the
dense darkness, O Mother, Thy formless beauty sparkles;
Therefore the yogi's meditate in a dark mountain cave.
In the
lap of boundless dark, on waves of light ascending upwards, peace
flows serene and inexhaustible.
Taking
the form of Void, in the robe of darkness wrapped,
Who art
Thou, Mother, seated alone in the shrine of samadhi?
From
the Lotus of Thy fear-scattering Feet flash Thy love's lightning;
Thy
Spirit-Face shines forth with laughter terrible and loud!"
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
This
painting depicts the Goddess as Mother Kundalini, rising above to be the
completeness of a yogi. It is a visualization of the fire within that is
awakened by the yogi during the pre-dawn hours of the morning to enable the
cold bath in sub zero temperatures.
Kundalini
Sakthi when awakened, She exudes in energy and moves upward through each
subtle energy centers blossoming the inner and outer realities of the energy
centers we experience as in human reality.
Mother
Kundalini ascends with radiant showering of divine grace in transcendence
and evolving transformation. Her hands of giving guide, nourish, protect and
sustain the yogi. Her other hand above dissolves time, space and matter to
enable the absorption of the five senses and the limitations of the body and
mind as the grace of a deep meditation. Her head is supreme wisdom, set
alight. It is the pure wisdom state that is one in union with the Divine.
She is
pure cosmic energy experienced as the joy and bliss within us. In the
physical, She is the psychic heat (tumo) awakened to enable the body to go
beyond extreme conditions of heat and cold; hunger and sleep. She is the
awakened wisdom.
