Spiritually speaking (gender aside) Shaktism can also begin with a fundamental understanding of the cyclical nature of reality (God).
Represented by the snake in many creation myths, the living cycle has a trinity of a beginning (head), a middle and end (tail). As above so below, the sexes were created in the image of God's cyclical nature where Mother is the head and opening to all beginnings and Father holds the tail to all endings (through which the sowing of seeds allow for the next great matriarchal rebirth).The joining of the two (symbolized by the Ouroborus or the marriage ring) is the sacred union needed in assuring the creation and continuation of new life cycles. To speak of the present day God as "Our Father" is simply an admission to our collective positioning within the bigger cycle.
As all mothers have direct experience with the creator quality of birthing, so is the direct experience of rebirthing the divinity within (baptism) belong to that which is spiritually matriarchal. (John 3, verse 3-8).
Sekhmet statues (ancient Egyptian) carry most of their weight in symbolic memory of what was a mother culture dedicated to the direct experience of baptism. As the leg shaped hairlocks extend from maternal breasts to the womb of rebirth, the lioness's head proportions are such that they highlight the bust of a second animal figure. The Lioness's ears as eyes and eyes as nose (nostrils) brings to life the figure of a reptile. 'Neath the halo headress of the solar egg, the lioness's egg fertilization process being internal (Set) and the reptile's egg fertilization process being external (Setting), such being key components to the safety of entering the trans-egoic or "born again" state. The life threatening fear associated with the predatory nature of a lion and/or crocodile encounter are reflective of the intense ego death experiences associated with the transpersonal awakening process.
In spiritually matriarchal times, illumination could be seen as wearing the false beard (ancient Egyptian funerary "ego" death mask) as the high state of cyclical self knowing; high awareness of both our upper matriarchal half and our lower (later) patriarchal half (compared with a mini lower body replica, an "as above so below" tail end beard extension); in full recognition of her civilizational Underworld; her inevitable cyclical destiny. The male pharaoh wears his beard tapered in reverse, indicating a pointing upwards towards the patriarchal head, divine representative of God's tail end cycle.
Mary's anointing and wiping of Jesus's feet with her hair can then be seen as "Head to tail" (toe) imagery as she descends her matriarchal head to his patriarchal feet, thus reenacting the high understanding of the divine cyclical process. (John 12, verse 3)
To carry the Ankh (now the female symbol ♀️) was perhaps to symbolically carry that upper and lower understanding. As the upper matriarchal womb symbolised the fertile birthing of civilization, below, the now Christian cross is carried to place emphasis on the lower (later) "End Times" Father principle of the great cycle.
Lord Ganesha, the elephant headed Hindu diety, displays a cyclical head to trunk symbolism and points to the Mother head of his matriarchal elephant society. Ganesha (like the elephant) wears God's cyclical nature on his face.
A whole temple was dedicated to the ancient Egyptian goddess Hathor, who is the matriarchal "Uterus" personified. czcams.com/video/J0m0zJSEFK0/video.html
"See all women as mothers, serve them as your mother. when you see the entire world as the mother, the ego falls away. See everything as Mother and you will know God." - Neem Karoli Baba

If Sakti is the divine feminine, what is the masculine equivalent?
Shiva.
Aka mother nature?
Kind of. Shakti is known as the creator of the universe and the one that lives in it. She created mother nature and prevades as mother nature
@@desifish2363 mother nature(prakriti) can not be created as per hindu philosophy. Shakti manifested herself as mother nature.
Thats why in her hymn she is called - twam paraprakriti sakshat brahmana( u r the nature who is the cosmic consciousness). Prakriti(nature) is eternal but everchanging system
Cutalini snake thing? What is that?
Kundalini
En azhaghi ..... mwwwwwahhh 😘🔱
Ps : this is not entirely accurate ...but hey.....if it makes ye happy
For Lord Rudra.... All forms of the goddess ...is beautiful in his heart 🥰🔱
I have am important question -
In Bhakti movement there are different Bhavas such as Shantha, Dasya, Sakya, Vatsalya and Madhurya. Is it okay to have a madhurya baba relationship with Shakti?/Durga?
Sri Ramakrishna calls it dangerous. It's easy to fall into lust. How do you make a distinction?
so If I dont practice Hinduism but practice meditation can I still believe in sakti?
It's not about being hindu, Christian or anything but about reality and the energy that is the cosmos.
Don't believe in it, realize it , live it🙏
You have an incorrect grasp of Hindu-ism. Start with understanding basics first if you're on a spiritual journey.
@@varunphartyal9048 You too, get your facts right.
@@RuggedBone don't teach a Hindu what Hinduism is.
Yep
Shiva and Sakti is really Brahman and Maya.
What is Maya?
@@carlsaintroseMaya would simply translate in English as "Illusion". As the in the video it explains that Sakti veils our truest reality, the veil she is talking about is essentially maya ≈ illusion. We're all living in this material non true, temporary world which is driven by illusion ≈ maya which we're supposed to overcome.
Not bad. But too much emphasis on dualistic gendered explanations given the non duality of Siva Sakti. Some sects would express it that way but by no means all. Kundalini had to be mentioned, so cheers to that. All the best.
Shakti is energy... Not power
The dress of shakti is inappropriate. Please animate with traditional eastern Indian dress for women
