	Shaktism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In pure Shaktism, the Great Goddess, or Devi, is worshiped as nothing less than the highest divinity, Supreme Brahman Itself, the "one without a second," with all other forms of Divinity, female or male, considered to be merely her diverse manifestations.
		The Shaktas conceive their Great Goddess as the personification of primordial energy and the source of all divine and cosmic evolution.
		In a certain sense, one could consider oneself a Shakta (a devotee of Shakti), a Shaiva (a devotee of Shiva), and a Vaishnava (a devotee of Vishnu) all at the same time.

	A Workshop with Shakta Kaur Khalsa
		Shakta began practicing yoga in 1972 and since 1976 has been teaching kundalini yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, the head of the Sikh faith in the Western Hemisphere.
		For example, if a kid causes a disruption during a yoga class, Shakta recommends putting him or her in a "peace circle." The idea is the same as the traditional "time-out," but it has a more loving, less punitive energy about it.
		Shakta mentioned that she had been asked by former Radiant Child workshop attendees to create a Level II because they wanted to go deeper.

		Shakta and Hari Dev are advocates of ayurveda, an ancient Indian holistic medical system, and the ayurvedic cleansing technique panchakarma, which can be spread out over several days or weeks and incorporates vigorous massage with oils, scrubs and special diet.
		Shakta believes that part of her attraction to kundalini yoga and meditation is the mantras, which are chanted.

	Chapter Six: Shakti and Shakta (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The Shakta faith, or worship of Shakti, is I believe, in some of its essential features one of the oldest and most wide-spread religions in the world.
		It is not possible at present to say fully and precisely who the original Shaktas were, the nature of their sub-divisions and of their relation to, or distinction from, some of the Shaiva group.
		It is because Woman is a Vigraha of the Amba Devi, Her likeness in flesh and blood, that the Shakta Tantras enjoin the honor and worship of women and girls (Kumaris), and forbid all harm to them such as the Sati rite, enjoining that not even a female animal is to be sacrificed.

	Chapter Twenty-nine: Kundalini Shakta (Yoga)
		As, according to Shakta doctrine, with which alone we are concerned, the latter proposition is affirmed, Yoga is that process by which the identity of the two (Jivatma and Paramatma),-- which identity ever in fact exists,-- is realized by the Yogi or practitioner of Yoga.
		The Shakta Tantra is a rendering of Vedantik Truth from this practical point of view, and represents the world-process as a polarization in Consciousness itself.
		This polarity as it exists in, and as, the body is destroyed by Yoga which disturbs the equilibrium of bodily consciousness, which consciousness is the result of the maintenance of these two poles.

	A Biography of Jadunath Sinha
		He followed both classical tantra (esoteric meditation practices involving mantras and visualizations) and emotional Shakta bhakti (devotion to the goddess), with a philosophical position of Shakta universalism (all religions lead to God but the preferred way to worship god is as a Divine Mother).
		During Sinha's childhood, he met the Shakta siddha (realized sage) Vamaksepa at Tarapith several times, and had several initiations in various traditions (a sannyasin gave him a Sarasvati mantra in 1902, and he was initiated by a Vaishnava guru in a Krishna mantra in 1922).
		However, his closest ties were Shakta, and the start of his spiritual life occurred with a special kind of initiation, an intense glance (drik diksa) by Vamaksepa when he was fifteen years old.

		But the shAkta holds that to the extent there is an object with its reflection, there is a phenomenal reality for jIva and the universe.
		The close correlation between advaita and the various shAkta schools, particularly the Shri-vidyA tantra school, has been used by our Acharya who is aware that many cannot follow the abstract path of jnAna.
		In the ShAkta and Shaiva scriptures the word ‘samayAcAra’ is used to denote the path of worship, that is done mentally through the noblest attitude of devotion arising from the bottom of the heart.

		Their, and much of Hindu tantra's, ideology sees (The female or generative principle; wife of Siva and a benevolent form of Devi) Shakti as the principle of energy through which all divinity functions, thus showing the masculine to be dependent on the feminine.
		Indeed, in the great shakta scripture known as the Devi Mahatmya, all the goddesses are shown to be aspects of one presiding female force, one in truth and many in expression, giving the world and the cosmos the galvanic energy for motion.
		It is expressed through both philosophical tracts and metaphor that the potentiality of masculine being is given actuation by the feminine divine.

	Saint Arunagirinathar: Was he a Shakta?
		In this sense, all the devotees of different cults may be called Shaktas and it is no surprise if we call Arunagirinatha as a Shakta.
		By the grace bestowed by Devi, Shaktas claim the ultimate experience of Nirguna Brahman by their worship of Para Shakti in its external form or Saguna Upasana.
		The Shakta cult, therefore, teaches that there is One Reality and nothing besides which is false or illusory to true knowledge and understanding.

	The Shakta Theory of Chakras
		The Crown centre, the Sahasrara-Padma or "Thousand Petalled-Lotus", located at the very top of the head, is technically speaking not a chakra at all, but the summation of all the chakras.
		Woodroffe's book - his own chapters cover Shakta metaphysics and cosmology, Patanjali Yoga, and Tantric practice, as well as the chakras themselves - is unfortunately very difficult for the beginner, but it served as the inspiration and chief reference text (usually without acknowledgment) for many Western occult-esoteric writers
		Most Indian gurus incorporate the idea of chakras into their teachings; as part of a watered-down or westernised form of tantra.

		It is with Shakta doctrine and worship, one of the forms of Brahmanism, which is again a form of the general Bharata Dharma, that this book deals.
		The Shakta is so called because he is a worshipper of Shakti (Power), that is, God in Mother-form as the Supreme Power which creates, sustains and withdraws the universe.
		His rule of life is Shaktadharma, his doctrine of Shakti is Shaktivada or Shakta Darshana.
