Gods, Buddhism & Shakti.

Introduction.

While Buddhism is not about becoming The God,

Many of the Gods came to the Buddha Shakyamuni after he reached Enlightenment, to Bless & to Talk.

i think that on Mahakala Way, one can use Buddha's & Godly Blessings to help to overcome difficult situations.

i think it's not about closing oneself to Gods fully.


Shakti.

Shakti - Shiva's wife, type of strength, energy, feminine element, performs under four main persona: Parvati, Durga, Kali & Uma. In religious Indian culture, godly pair Shiva & Shakti are unseparable, mutually-balancing principles, are whole of the god being.

In Hinduism, Shakti also spelt as Sakthi or Shakthi, meaning 'power' or 'empowerment' is the primordial cosmic energy and represents the dynamic forces that are thought to move through the entire universe.

Shakti is the concept, or personification, of divine feminine creative power, sometimes referred to as 'The Great Divine Mother' in Hinduism.

As the mother she is known as Adi Parashaktior Adishakti.

On the earthly plane, Shakti most actively manifests through female embodiment and creativity/fertility, though it is also present in males in its potential, unmanifest form.


Hindus believe that Shakti is both responsible for creation and the agent of all change.

Shakti is cosmic existence as well as liberation, its most significant form being the Kundalini Shakti, a mysterious psychospiritual force.


In Shaktism and Shaivism, Shakti is worshipped as the Supreme Being. Shakti embodies the active feminine energy of Shiva and is identified as Tripura Sundari or Parvati.
