Guest guest Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Oh, how juicy! Yum! I am eating this up with great joy. In the last segment, the discussion of " Devi Bhav " and it various manifestations was very interesting. I have actually seen a lot of it in connection with " Shaktipat Gurus " . (The temporary kind, and the personality is overshadowed by the deity but does not go unconscious) I was told that it also occurs in the villages of the Himalayan valleys. Is this common to many tantric traditions?
