Tantrika Mahadevi
"That Lotus in folds several is Primal Shakthi's abode;
?The Lotus that lifts soul is the Heart:
?When the Lotus in Muladhara is roused,
'
The Lotus in Sahasrara blossoms."
-Siddhar Thirumulanathar
The source of tantra is from ?tantiram?, the ancient Tamil word that depicts the union of Siva, the un-manifested with Shakthi, the manifested energy.
Within ourselves is the primal energy that when aroused, rises upwards and blossoms all that is within and around us as it ascends. Below, at the base chakra is the primal energy that can make a baby and above is the divine energy that manifests thoughts.
In our yogic path, we seek union of the male and female energies to be whole and in this union, we experience the transformation of small temporary pleasures, chit-inbam, into eternal cosmic pleasure, per-inbam.
This painting depicts the blossoming of bliss that ascends upwards as the lotus of wisdom and eternal knowing while worshipping the feminine as the Goddess Kundalini. AUM |
