shakti is cosmic passion

Passion for anything you are expressing is Shakti through yourself.
Although most of us consider ourselves fortunate if we can still feel passion for
our work or politics or even sex, which is not the same as having a passion for life.
It is not just that life is bigger than work, politics, or sex.

If you mourn the fading of passion, nothing endures on the surface of life,
where change is the constant. Things come and go, people come and go, and
although they once stoked the fires of enthusiasm, eventually everything cools.

This is true of sexual desire. Erotic attraction is not a permanent state but an opening that allows us temporarily to step outside our ego boundaries and enter into the love affair of Shiva and Shakti. Sexuality is an opportunity to be in unity, outside the limitations of the ego dominated self. The opportunity must be taken when offered.

In spiritual terms, Shakti flows in any situation, that arouses interest, excitement, and attraction. To expend passion on needs and drives that are selfish and without spirit is the greatest waste . Among these wastes would be material accumulation, greed, love of money and power for their own sake, loveless sexual activity, and obsession.

Shakti is the raw ore of life, waiting to be refined and shaped. Insights about passion, is all to
do with sustaining Shakti in yourself and transmuting it in your relationship to love and union.

Passion is the energy that love creates with no object other than itself.
The energy born of love is creative it makes everything it touches new.
To see how passionate you are, look around at what you have created.
