Hello,
Thank you for joining me for this meditation today on standing in our Feminine Power or our Shakti Energy if you will.
Now for our inspiration for this meditation,
We'll be using the Goddess Lalita.
She is a Goddess in the Hindu or the Tantric tradition and there's many stories of this Goddess but basically what we want to remember today is that she is a Goddess that really can stand in her power as a woman.
She is the Feminine side of reality.
She is the Ultimate Shakti.
She is the Creator of the Universe and in the hierarchy she actually is above the three powerful Gods Vishnu,
Brahma and Shiva.
She is Feminine Desire.
She is Passion but she is also Strength.
She is not only a Consort Goddess but she is also a Warrior Goddess and there's tales of her slaying a demon when no one else could.
She is a Goddess that is strong,
She is powerful.
She is a Goddess that is not afraid to stand up for herself.
Lalita is her Passion as the wife of Sheena.
She is the Great Mother as the Incarnation of Parvati and again she is also the strong independent warrior ready to take on any demons as the Incarnation of Kali.
So as you can see there's a lot of sides to the Goddess Lalita and maybe you can identify with that.
Maybe there's a lot of sides within you.
The Feminine is not one dimensional,
The Shakti and Energy is not one dimensional.
There's Desire,
There's Passion but there's also Strength.
There is a Warrior quality with this as well.
So let's see if we can recognize that within ourselves for a few moments here today.
So let's get into a comfortable meditative posture here.
You can be laying down or sitting up tall.
I want you to find a way that you're able to nurture yourself,
Care for yourself,
Love yourself.
And when you find this position just allow your eyes to gently fall loose.
Perhaps begin to bring your awareness into the movement of your own breath,
Gently flowing in and out of your body.
Begin to see the beautiful Goddess Lalita starting to emerge from the space around you.
And perhaps it starts out as a little bit of light and then as that light grows brighter and brighter you start to see the image of a Goddess.
She is sitting atop a beautiful lotus being held up by several Gods.
She is wearing a beautiful pomegranate flared sari.
Her body is beautiful,
Is perfect.
She is adorned with gold jewelry.
Her scent is a beautiful wildflower.
And as you see this Goddess,
Look her in the face,
Look her in the eyes.
And as you do,
See yourself in this Goddess.
See your own eyes looking back at you and welcome in this divine Shakti energy knowing that it's you.
You are this beautiful,
Perfect creator of your world.
You are desire and passion,
Your strength.
You are will.
You are warrior.
You are the Goddess Lalita.
She is around you.
She is within you.
She is you.
Just let yourself bask here in this Shakti energy.
Let yourself become one with it and rest.
When you're ready,
Take a breath or two,
Feeling that strength,
That desire,
That passion,
The love,
The warrior energy within you.
And perhaps carry this with you through your day.
Just coming back to this image of you as the Goddess Lalita.
When you're ready,
Just take a breath or two and begin to invite in some small movements and eventually gently opening the eye as you return to the world.
Thank you strong,
Feminine meditator for joining with me today.
Namaste.
