“When you succeed in awakening the Kundalini, so that it starts to move out of its mere potentiality, you necessarily start a world which is totally different from our world. It is the world of eternity.” ― Carl Jung

You find peace not by rearranging the circumstances of your life, but by realizing who you are at the deepest level.

The Cosmic fountain - shiva-shakti Abhishek Singh Shiva-Shakti

When the energy is not misused by arrogance, conflict, violence, vanity, then it will start to apprehend the true source of its being, it will rise up to illuminate the sun itself. Celebrating the union of pure Energy with pure Love.

“A wrathful yidam is a powerful demonstration of transformation. The horrific appearance of the wrathful yidam shows that no matter how evil I am, no matter how viciously deranged we may be – these distortions are connected to the enlightened state. Vajrayana proclaims that everything can be transformed – it is impossible to be too bad. This is an enormously powerful stance, because if such a practice can even transform Hitler or Stalin, then it can transform anything, even Ngakpa Chögyam. Wrathful Yidams all hold weapons and sometimes scorpions. The scorpion is a beautiful wrathful example. It is said to be the only animal who will kill itself, or anything else for that matter – on immediate impulse, and even the scorpion can be transformed. The weapons held by wrathful yidams destroy the illusion of dualism. There are swords, lances, axes, spears, flaying knives, daggers – a vast array. It is not that dualism has to be destroyed in all these different ways, simply that we all need different ways to destroy our individual illusions of duality. Our illusions take many different forms; so, paradoxically, many illusory methods are needed to destroy illusion. At the ultimate level, the weapons held by wrathful yidams all perform the same function; whether it is a spear, a lance, or a dagger – duality is murdered.”

We hardly ever realize that we can cut anything out of our lives, anytime, in the blink of an eye.

"Just as a doctor doesn't fight with a (patient)

Seized by demons and rage;

Likewise, a sage sees the disturbing emotions as the enemy,

Not the person who's possessed with these emotions."

Divinity places necessary impediments or ordeals for us to conquer. Otherwise, we cannot grow. We cannot develop if we are not challenged.

“The unconscious is not just evil by nature, it is also the source of the highest good: not only dark but also light, not only bestial, semi-human, and demonic but superhuman, spiritual, and, in the classical sense of the word, 'divine'.” ― C.G. Jung

““You’re not a monster,” I said. But I lied. What I really wanted to say was that a monster is not such a terrible thing to be. From the Latin root monstrum, a divine messenger of catastrophe, then adapted by the Old French to mean an animal of myriad origins: centaur, griffin, satyr. To be a monster is to be a hybrid signal, a lighthouse: both shelter and warning at once.”

“Character is not cut in marble — it is not something solid and unalterable. It is something living and changing, and may become diseased as our bodies do.”
