00:00 Francis I have a question about
Shiva and Shakti energy. What cost in
balance in those energy and is there
something that I can do to keep it in a
balance
00:14 I think Shiva and Shakti in their dance
they know very well how to balance each
other they are very good dancers
they don't need your help
other than to understand what Shiva is
and what Shakti is.
01:08 Shiva is a reality.
Shakti is the world. the body and the
mind. Shiva is the reality and the
consciousness, which are the same
01:47 the world
is as we experience it as human being
of two kinds there is the world of
matter which is also the world of form
in sanskrit rupa to form
and there is a world of thoughts
a subtle world not a physical world
and the world of thoughts
of concept of images of dreams in the
mind in sanskrit namah the names the
totality of the manifestation is
sat -- being, meaning being of truth
chit -- consciousness,
Ananda meaning bliss, happiness
nama -- the concepts the subtle world
Rupa -- the physical world
03:14
satchitananda nama Rupa
out of these
three qualities nama Rupa is Shakti
satchitananda is shiva
in the absence of
nama Rupa of the world of perception
shiva stands alone as satchitananda
beingness consciousness happiness
then it emanates the world nama Rupa
nama Rupa is also known as Maya but it's not
different from Shiva
Shiva is still present
as Shakti shuttle doesn't stand separate
from Shiva he says that Shiva becomes
Shakti in the same way as a very tiny
seed of the banyan tree becomes the tree
the invisible tiny seed is the invisible
Shiva
Shiva becomes the manifestation
so if you want to see Shiva first look at
Shakti because it Shakti is nothing else
than Shiva
appearing under the disguise of the
world
05:06
ignorance comes when we identify with
nama Rupa
when we consciousness chit
identifies with an object, subtle -- nama, or
physical Rupa subtle the me concept the I concept
grows physical human body when
consciousness chit identifies with nama
05:49
Rupa there is ignorant also known as a
avidia
now consciousness being seen as an
object has left the satchitananda part
has left seemingly left Shiva
when consciousness is seen as different from
sat in other ways from reality truth
then seemingly and ananada Happiness
disappears because a happiness
at that moment the energy of happiness
is used to pull chit out of ignorance to
take it back to sat when
awareness and beingness atman and
brahman are seen as one then happiness
is restore sat-chit-ananda nama Rupa
07:10
whether it is in the presence in the
absence of the object
Shiva alone or in the presence of the
manifestation of Shakti so the only way
to have this harmony to answer your
question between Shakti and Shiva is not
to identify consciousness with any nama
or Rupa with any object subtle or gross
intellectual or physical such as a body
or mind
