I never disagree with this concept that all being is from DEVI. Yes obviously they have to do with DEVI, but what is their purpose? That is an issue I am concern about. Will these vampires or whatever, help us to find the answers or solution to the social issues that are troubling the society at large right now? Shakti Sadhana is not about rejecting the world, but to embrace it just as a mother would embrace her child no matter how horrible or deform the child may be. But again we must remember that not all children are born normal. Well yes! some may say; why would DEVI create vampires and such, if they are of no use to us. Definitely they have uses for us, I can never deny it. Everything that exist in this world have their uses, it up to us to use our brain or rather our mind to rationalise it for ourself to decide what they be use for. My main concern will always be : what can I do to make this world a better place to be? We are here right now. It no use to question ourselve : why am I born here? Or why am I here? But instead we should be asking : I am here right now, what can I do about it? Where can I go from here? What can I do to make this present lifetime a more meaningful one? There is an old sayings here which goes : A tiger/Lion dies, they leave their skin behind. We, The Human leave our Name. I remember sometime back when Devi Bhakta posted a message about Aids and its effect on the women. One member asked a valid question: What can DEVI do about it. I ponder for a moment about this question. Infact I like to rephrase that question and ask the shaktas here : What can shakti sadhana offer to the troubling world? If religion does not operate in a vaccum and that religion are directly affected by the social, political, economic and environmental issues, and also if religion does able to emit an influence to these factors, what are our roles as Devotees of Shakti? What is the main purpose of our sadhana? Does our journey ends with Moksha? [ I shall repost this discussion again ] surya vishnubhotla wrote : "Please dont mistake me .. I sometime get curious and childlike sometimes .." I do not at all. I believe in all of us, there is always a child. Even though we grow to become adult, the child never dies. It is in my opinion that at times we need to go back to this childhood stage to rememeber again what is was like to be a child, because we tends to forget. Being a child is also part of our spiritual development. If you look at Bala Tripurasundari, it is said : she is always nine years old. "I fully agree that for people who are on a higher level of consciousness these things are just unthinkable of !" I am not so sure about this. What is "the higher level of consciousness" means? I don't think so that I said, I never believe in such things, of course I do, but I ask again and again: What are their purpose? What can they do to help me to help those people out there?

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Dear Sir, I believe all things have relevence only as per our own level of awareness ... for people doing black magic vampires might hold relevence however for people immersed into the love of god they have no relevance whatsoever .. I know I am not being clear .. because it's very difficult to put in words what I see ! Surya. Mail - You care about security. So do we.

Expresss in whatever way you are comfortable with. I understand what you are getting at. And again, that is the reason why I tried remind members the focus of our group. Definitely all things exist or born have its purpose, and sometimes it is beyond our understanding. The same as those children who are born badly deform. When we see such cases our mind ask : why! why! does this happen. Instead of us asking why, we should say : okay! We have this baby with us now, what can we do about it. This is a public group and we have members from all walks of life and different spiritual development. Black magic thingy and whatever related to it is a very `senstive' issue and should be discuss in private. It is my personal believe too that all this vampires stories and whatever bring forth more fear into people especially for those who do not understand. Will this fear help us in our sadhana ? If you look at our message board I have been talking about removing the fear. I personally believe, Fear is the main factor that hinders our spiritual development.
