Submitting your Rakshasi side to Maa:
Have you ever felt it, when you’re deep in the consistent dhyana of Ma every day, that slowly, you are shedding the Pashu mindset and allowing your Karana Sharira the very essence of your being to take the driver's seat? You stop being carried by the tide of fleeting bodily desires, and instead, you begin to walk the path with clarity and strength. But when everything is going well where is the growth?
It is in those moments of seeming comfort that growth feels distant, for true evolution lies not in the smooth, but in the struggles. Enter the contradictions, the distractions, and the wild outbursts of emotions be it anger or lust. With consistent sadhana, these too can be overcome, but the real test comes when you find yourself in a vulnerable state.
What happens in your dream world, in the moments when you are at your weakest? When your desires, once thought to be banished, rise up like dark shadows, consuming your consciousness? It is in these moments, where you may not even recall the details, but you remember the intensity of the feelings, that Ma is waiting to teach you something crucial.
In the path of sadhana, even in your weakest moments, Ma wants you to master and submit your Rakshasi side of your subconscious that you've long rejected. You’ve viewed your Ishta as the purest, striving to embody that purity, but understand this: In the Khyapa Sampradaya of Ma Adya Mahakali, purity is not a duality of good and bad, light and dark. She is the creator of both. She is the source of everything.
For she is the mother of All Gods Aditi, Kunti and she is also the mother of all Rakshasas Diti and Gandhari.
It is in acknowledging your Rakshasi side, the very part of you that you’ve deemed 'evil,' that the true journey begins. This aspect of you is Ma herself, breathing through you with every breath. Accept her, for when you submit your Rakshasi side, you are submitting all of you.
When you offer your darker sides to her, understand that she does not demand your adoration or your condemnation. She only asks for your acceptance, honesty, and pure love.
She does not care for the filthiness of your inner demons; she loves you regardless of your shortcomings. Your only task is to love her, completely and without reservation.
This body is her temple. This mind is her sacred space of dhyana.
If you do not accept them fully, as they are, she cannot reside there. It is in complete self-respect and absolute honesty that her divine presence can be embodied within you.
