Guest guest Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 [784] AgAdhA : The unfathomable. The Ultimate reality is self-luminous and does not stand in need of any external light to illuminte. It is infinite and does not need anything external or internal to support it. It is vast and unfathomable and contains all what is and what is not. It is an experiencing principle that cannot become an object of our knowledge. Self-relization is not a thing to be attained with the help of mind and speech but it is possible when God reveals Himself through Hisdivine power or Sakti, who is unfathomable. Utpala prays : " Entering Thy Infinite Self, my own being, the fathomless, the undifferentiated, the one that dissolves all objectivity. O Lord of UmA, let me ever worship and sing of Thee " . " One concentrated mass of the couple Siva- Sakti has the whole world as a morsel and reigns supreme " [785] NAgakundalA : Who is the serpentine KundalinI. According to Tantric Texts, the basic power which is working in the entire universe, is Cit Sakti, symbolically called KundalinI. THis is the yogic name of consciousness conceived as energy [Cit Sakti]. It is working at all the levels of existence, latent or partially awakened. Broadly speaking KundalinI works at three levels viz physical [Prana KundalinI], mental [NAda KundalinI] and spiritual [bodha KundalinI]. KundalinI. literally means 'coiled serpent', being synonymous with Sakti. It is imagined to be serpentine, with three and a half coils at MUlAdhAra, the base of spine. [786] SucaakrA : Who is constantly dynamic. Th epower of the form-pattern which manifests the embodied deity is called Yantra. It is a store house of power, which contains in itself the uncontrollable power of the deity in a controlled form. It simply limits the illimitable. Its crisis-cross lines channelise in a cognizable form of the deity the vast ocean of consciousness. It is also known as Cakra, the wheel representing constant movement. This indicates the dynamic character of the Divine Mother[a]. Footnote : [a] Worship through Cakra is more abstract than worship through pratimA, image.
