Guest guest Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 While Shaiva extremists would say that Shiva is life and Ambaal is body and Shakthas would claim, it this in the reverse order. In the LS it is mentioned that the five prethas ( body without life ) begin and carry out their respective functions with just a Flicker of Her Eye Brows.The 5 functions comprise of Creation,operation,destruction,Thirodhanam ( Masking with Maya ) and Anugraham. ( Saving and granting Moxa ). In SL 34 Adi Sankara says right from a worm to deities performing Pancha Kruthya as said above, are created by Ambaa and SHE DWELLS in them as one Shakthy. But both the Shaiva and Shakthas, who are realized Jivas with inward realization would conclude that both must be given importance in equal measure. In the SL it is clearly also concludes, that Ambaa is Parameshwara's " AAHOPURUSHIKA " and in that state there is no question of separability of Shiva or Ambaa. In my last post it should be AD instead of LD or SD and Typographical error is regretted.
