Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna

[Guest guest]

" He who is attributeless also has attributes.

He who is Brahman is also Shakti. When thought of as inactive,

He is called Brahman, and when thought of as Creator, Preserver,

and Destroyer, He is called the Primordial Energy, kAli. "

 

" Brahman and Shakti are identical, like fire and its power to burn.

When we talk of fire we automatically mean also its power to burn.

Again, the fire's power to burn implies the fire itself.

If you accept the one you must accept the other. "
