Shrim – Seed sound for the principle of abundance (OM SHREEM MAH-HA LAK-SHMEE-YAY NAHM-AH-A)
The mantra for invoking the energy and vibration associated with Lakshmi and abundance is: She wears red clothing trimmed with gold suggesting both her activity and prosperous nature. Streams of golden coins are often seen pouring from her hands representing her abundant and affluent qualities. Her four hands symbolize the four aims of human life: Artha or material abundance Kama or desire Dharma or purpose and Moksha or liberation. Lakshmi is depicted as a beautiful woman with four arms, sitting or standing on a blooming lotus flower.
She is the epitome of wealth consciousness. Lakshmi embodies the abundance and prosperity inherent in the universe. She is often referred to as the mother goddess and occupies a place of honor in the household. Her name is drawn from the Sanskrit word Laksaya, which means “aim” or “goal”. Lakshmi is the Vedic goddess of wealth, prosperity, and abundance in all its forms, both material and spiritual. In the descriptions of the feminine trinity that follows, we’ll first explore the qualities and attributes of each goddess and then examine a Sanskrit mantra associated with that being and state of consciousness.
#AWAKEN THE DIVINE FEMININE FREE#
Feel free to use whichever interpretation is most comfortable for you. They can be considered anthropomorphized principles, a way of giving an abstract concept or idea a human form to make it more relatable to us in everyday life. While each of these deities can be thought of as actual beings, it may be easier for some to relate to them as archetypes, or a symbolic expression of certain qualities of consciousness. The great Vedic goddesses of Lakshmi, Durga, and Saraswati represent the three primary ways the power of Shakti manifests in our human experience. Now that we understand the nature of Divine Feminine energy, let’s delve into the Great Feminine Trinity to see how you can harness this power to transform your life. Mantra Shakti is the power that allows us to transcend to a level of awareness from which the word becomes flesh. The nature of the universe is vibrational, and Mantra Shakti is the expression of the power of vibration in sound, music, and mantra (spiritual formulas). Mantra Shakti – The Power of Sound and Speech Resting like a coiled serpent at the base of the spine, the awakening of Kundalini Shakti triggers the evolution of consciousness within an individual. Kundalini Shakti – The Power of Bioelectromagnetic EnergyĬombining both electricity and magnetism, Kundalini Shakti is the power of the dormant spiritual power that resides within our subtle energy anatomy. When combined with Jnana Shakti, Kriya Shakti may also express itself through creativity and inspiration. Kriya means “action” therefore Kriya Shakti is the power that transforms Iccha Shakti into an actual event. Kriya Shakti – The Power of Manifestation Through Iccha Shakti, our intentions activate our ability to act and tangibly affect our surroundings. Iccha Shakti is the mind’s ability to direct energy toward manifestation. Iccha Shakti – The Power of Will or Desire In each of us, it is the power of the mind and intellect to form and interpret thoughts and ideas. Jnana Shakti is the power of knowledge that manifests itself in the consciousness of the universe at every level of expression.
Jnana Shakti – The Power of Mind and Knowledge Within us, this power is localized in the third subtle energy center or chakra, known as the Manipura chakra. Para Shakti – The Power of Heat and Lightįound throughout the universe, Para Shakti energizes stars and galaxies to provide the radiance of light and heat energy. The power of Shakti expresses itself in six different qualities or types of energy throughout the universe. Like a pilot light, the power of Shakti ignites the masculine energy, giving rise to the creation of the entire universe. According to Eastern teachings Shiva, the masculine principle is a sleeping, dormant quality of consciousness that must be awakened. This feminine energy is known as Shakti, the goddess of the universe who infuses all creatures with energy, creativity, and power. From archetypes and godheads to qualities of consciousness such as strength, control, dominance, force, or rigidity, the masculine principle is often viewed as the seat of power and strength in the world.ĭespite this predisposition, however, in the Vedic teachings and writings of the Upanishads, we are taught that the nature of power in all its forms is feminine. The history of both Eastern and Western spiritual traditions has largely been dominated by a masculine bias. "Only when Shiva is united with Shakti does he have the power to create." - Soundarya
