I Am Shakti is the affirming mantra of our time.

To revive the sacred stability in ourselves, {our relationships}, and our world, we have to perceive Shakti, the Vedic precept that refers back to the primordial female precept that’s at work on the core of all existence. Her life drive has infused breath into life on Earth for billions of years. Although she graces all her residents with the present of consciousness, she endows her cosmic blueprint to ladies alone, honoring them with the blood that brings forth new life. Look intently on the pores and skin that covers your womb. Within the silent umbilicus of her creation, the Goddess stamped her procreate magical seal into the reproductive reminiscence of all feminine species. This seal imbues every womb with the life-giving drive that retains Shakti’s primordial reminiscence vibrant within the female mobile physique. It’s the origin of creation and life, of consciousness and vitality.

Right now of social and particular person evolution, a quickly rising share of humanity, men and women and all genders, is already experiencing a brand new quiet surge of consciousness. On the identical time, we’re witnessing the breakup of outdated, rote, anarchical, ancestral, social, and political patterns. The reins of patriarchal management are sporting skinny and taut. We’re sensing the emergence of an enormous sweep of consciousness affecting each being on Earth. Contemporary conscientious impetus to assist the awakening of consciousness is being disseminated by way of quantum physics, yoga, holistic medication, historic non secular practices rooted in indigenous cultures, teachings by non secular luminaries, and thru books and on-line portals. We’re experiencing an enormous communal synchronicity steeped in each extremes of problem and illumination: the paradox of the deep darkish cavern of Earth and, concurrently, the sensible daylight of the open sky. We’re awakening by way of evolution and revolution; and every of us has the potential to take action.  As the female drive, she expresses herself as Para-Shakti within the larger common area therein forging the interior awakening of consciousness by way of a propagation of consciousness that seems as consciousness-awakening conduct. In different phrases, our private enlightenment spurs social enlightenment. On the identical time the alignment of the planets within the rarest of configurations, the mounting unease so many people really feel, and the awakening of consciousness in a big share of humanity forecast a radical overhaul that helps female justice—a key incidence for restoring the divine female largess of all beings.

At this pivotal junction in our historical past, ladies, specifically, have gotten extra sensitized to their Shakti prowess. We’re shifting perspective away from an outmoded and ineffective mannequin of femininity and the way it’s been misunderstood previously, the place a lot has been about copying what males are doing. As a substitute, we’re creating a brand new imaginative and prescient by redefining female energy for the brand new technology by way of the deep exploration of the Shakti precept. As we shift consciousness from the outdated feminist mannequin that by no means actually labored for ladies and cease emulating the inured patriarchal mannequin, we forge ahead with a brand new and historic knowledge to revive female energy. On the identical time, we gentle the best way for ladies, males, and all genders to gasoline and facilitate the non-binary and non-dualistic agenda in concord with common justice that we’re in search of.  Fortuitously, the bottom for reclaiming our sacred proper of the Shakti is ripened and fertile. Standing at a serious crossroad of consciousness the place we really feel this palpable, visceral power awakening, ladies are galvanized to reclaim their primordial female energy. It takes immense braveness to look behind the veil to seek out our true self in objective and reality. Just by emulating what we expect is female energy doesn’t make it so. We should be taught the repetitive patterns of patriarchal historical past to reclaim our stolen Shakti drive.  In so doing, we regain the stability, and the required alignment with supply energy that has been blown asunder by our masculine counterparts.  We are able to drastically affect the current masculine-dominated spheres by bringing Shakti’s prowess to the fore. We are able to additionally encourage our males to awaken to their primordial masculine nature, referred to in Sanskrit as Shiva. We not solely want their assist to perform this palpable shift of consciousness in our world, however we have to assist them discover their very own masculine balancing drive. The primordial masculine power is of course protecting, stoic, and well-balanced, a wanted counterpart for Shakti’s mission to efficiently impact the required shift in consciousness and working modes. Our major process is to reincorporate Shakti’s intrinsic rights and rites into our residing construction—cultural, social, financial, scientific, ecological, and non secular.

The time is lengthy overdue for Shakti-Shiva – the Divine Female/Divine Masculine- to face as one unified entrance to reclaim its intrinsic energy of alignment. 

We’ve been residing below this veil of separatism for too lengthy. Our intrinsic Shiva-Shakti bond is unhinged.  We don’t comprehend the female and masculine divine, and, consequently, we expertise the female and masculine divide. 

We discover ourselves untethered from the universally aligned energies that naturally compel our self-generating life drive to take care of and resolve challenges. We should acknowledge the lies which were skillfully sifted into the recalibration of reality and relinquish the false constructs handed down from one dysfunctional technology to the subsequent. Veneration of the Goddess essentially entails veneration of the God. As Shiva-Shakti, we now have two elements of the identical being. 

This precept is bigger than our particular person genders. Every human being holds the sacred employees of the Masculine and Female Divine inside their beings. The feminine gender accommodates the pro-active Shakti energies, and the male gender possesses the pro-active Shiva energies. As we lose contact with our primal nature, we sacrifice our innate human heritage of unity, love, and wellness and have been doing so for millennia. We pull aside the Shiva from the Shakti, the Shakti from the Shiva, not seeing, not realizing, not understanding that these “two” comprise an inseparable “one.”

We are able to start to disband patriarchy’s falsehoods by selecting to not subscribe to the illusions which were fiercely concretized into what we conjure and purchase into as “actuality.” Patriarchies aren’t “the pure order of issues.” The battle of the sexes was engineered. Ladies would not have a organic crucial to be candy and submissive, nor are males inherently extra aggressive.   The Shiva-Shakti precept, vastly differs from society’s interpretation of masculinity and femininity. Women and men are inclined to compete greater than they collaborate, to understand one another’s complimentary traits as weaknesses, and to make use of and betray one another greater than they accomplice and uplift. But, there isn’t a easy option to assign blame or demand accountability. Limitless generations of patriarchal lunacy have meticulously crafted the convolution of actuality that engineered this divisive consequence.  Fortuitously, this veil of separatism—fixed in place by perspective and realized conduct—is an phantasm we are able to strip from our imaginative and prescient. It’s attainable to revive female/masculine divinity and reclaim the sanctity of being human. However first, we should acknowledge that we now have been formed by fear-oriented societal, spiritual, and cultural mores. These moorings have honed behaviors and perception methods that don’t serve the larger good of our nature. We don’t must endure this morass of falsehoods any longer.

The power that every gender carries is unbelievable. As we now have seen within the Shiva-Shakti paradigm, the maternal, female drive, Shakti, manifests consciousness, and the masculine drive, Shiva, holds this immutable energy of consciousness in a spot of ecstatic stability. These juxtapositional energies are solely supported inside the physique by prana, primordial breath drive. Of the innumerable conduits of prana frequently flowing into our physique from the astral channels of the universe, Ida and Pingala are the 2 elementary channels in yoga philosophy that nourish the operational life drive of the Shakti-feminine and Shiva- masculine ideas, respectively. These two channels run alongside the backbone, crossing over one another at every chakra. Ida resides on the left facet of the physique, our female facet dominated by lunar energies of the moon, mirroring its darkish, inert high quality. Pingala, however, resides on the appropriate facet of the physique, or masculine facet, dominated by the photo voltaic energies of the solar and representing its gentle, lively high quality. Particular pranayama observe serves to stability and unblock the circulate of prana by way of these pivotal channels, resulting in the bodily, psychological, and non secular well-being of Shiva-Shakti vibration. As we strengthen our vibratory area, we’re fostering unity between these two primordial energies inside ourselves whereas illuminating our nature of unity and concord. The necessary focus right here is that we perceive what it takes to maneuver ahead in concord inside ourselves and one another. First, we work collectively to heal and make entire the primordial female power axis of consciousness, which restores the primordial masculine power. These two energies working in tandem with one another can reverse the free fall. When each these primeval energies work collectively, as they’re meant to, we create concord. When these energies are pulled aside and alienated, whether or not inside ourselves or from one another, we expertise a way of chaos and imbalance.
