Above/below with kundalini

[Guest guest]

> When Sakti has entered the last and grossest Tattva (Earth) - that is

solid matter - there is nothing futher for her to do. Her creative activity

then ceases, and She rests

 

Sue: << If there is nothing further for her to do, why does she wake up

again? >>

 

Greetings Sue,

 

Hope it is ok if I took the liberty to cc: this answer to a list talking

about the Sri Yantra.

 

I don't know really why she wakes up again... But my deep intuition is that

kundalini slings or rebounds from one pole, the base of mount Meru, to the

other, the Supreme Shiva, in a cyclic way in an attempt to create the

perfect Universe, the True Horizon, the perfect Sun.

 

In the Veda, the process of involution (or creation, the Moon) - Brahma -

where Shakti vomits what she has swallowed; the process of maintaining the

creation (The Sun) - Visnu - where Shakti rest in the last and grossest

Tattva; and the process of evolution (dissolution, the Fire) - Rudra -

where the Goddess swallows again the entire Universe; these three process

are said to be cyclical. And within the higher Cycle are smaller ones. The

Moon, Sun and Fire forming her three eyes or three Shaktis also called Lady

of Lust (Kameshvari), Adamantine Lady (Vajreshi), and Flowery Vagina

(Bhagamalini).

 

In the Sri Yantra, when the Sun (perfect mix of moon and fire) is shinning,

the four gates of the base of mount Meru, the Bhupura, the earth-stretch,

are closed like on this representation of the Yantra.

As the process of dissolution starts, or to use their terminology, when the

mantra of the yantra is charged, when Shakti wakes up again from the

muladhara, the four gates are represented as open like in this

representation.

What do those four gates represents? how do they open? Why is the snake

uncoiling in such huge proportion in the human race in the last few years?

<< It's interesting that three of these stellar animals are the traditional

<vahanas> or vehicles of the most widely-worshipped of the Hindu deities:

 

Lion is the vehicle of the Devi Durga

Eagle is the vehicle of Lord Vishnu

Bull is the vehicle of Lord Shiva

 

The fourth stellar animal, Man, is often portrayed as the vehicle of Lord

Kubera, God of Riches. >> Len/Kalipadma

 

<< The four living creatures are symbolically described as a lion, an ox,

a human, and an eagle. These same four symbols appeared earlier in the Old

Testament, in visions of Ezekiel:

 

"I saw a storm wind coming from the north, a vast cloud with flashes of

fire and brilliant light about it; and within was a radiance like brass,

glowing in the heart of the flames. In the fire was the semblance of four

living creatures... Each had four faces... all four had the face of a man

and the face of a lion... the face of an ox and the face of an eagle. The

appearance of the creatures was as if fire from burning coals or torches

were darting to and fro among them; the fire was radiant and out of the

fire came lightning." (Ezekiel 1.4-13)

 

These symbols are deeply esoteric. What do they signify? We believe that

they are symbols of the four astrological signs that rise together when one

13,000 year watch is being transformed into another. It is at such times

that the pillar of celestial fire descends upon the Earth like a lightning

bolt from Heaven.

 

In astrology, the sign of Leo may be symbolized by a lion, the sign of

Taurus by an ox, the sign of Aquarius by a human, and the sign of Scorpio

by an Eagle. Whenever there is a transition from one 13,000 year watch to

another, these four signs rise together at the equinoxes and solstices. >>

Staying more around the human body:

 

<< Just as the atom consists of a static centre round which moving forces

revolve, so in the human body Kundalini in the "Earth-Cakra" is the static

centre (Kendra) round which She in kinetic aspect as the forces of the body

works. The whole body as Sakti is in ceaseless movement. Kundalini Sakti is

the immobile support of all these operations. When she is aroused and

Herself moves upwards, She withdraws with and into Herself moving these

Saktis, and then unites with Siva in the Sahasrara Lotus. The process

upward (evolution) is the reverse of the involution above (preceding email)

described. The Worlds are dissolved (Laya) from time to time for all

beings. The perfected Yogi dissolves the Universe for all time for himself.

I have not answered your question, but you made me think about it,

 

Thank you,

"The great offering is the union of I-ness and this I-ness churned out of

the higher regions of the mind. Thus dissolving everything into the great

Light, one's body becomes full of bliss and one becomes the Light itself."

 

May the Joy of Shakti gently flow.
