Q&A with Swamiji .....4

[Guest guest]

Lynne's question from Chapter 2 class on Sunday :-

I am in awe of this whole Chandi. If you think about it, the

whole thing is very efficient. There is not one syllable that

is wasted. so when it talks in verse 66 (Chapter 2) about

dancing torsos and great rivers there is meaning and symbolism

there. what is this great river?

 

 

Swamiji's response :-

In the Chandi it is known as a great river of desires that come

pouring forth from the defeated forces of duality. These desires

spill across the earth as they no longer possess the capacity to

bind us further. That is, in the battle with the thoughts, the

Divine Mother sets us free from all negativities.
