But before we can avail the healing balms, we must face the truth of that which steals our human sovereignty and creates instead strife, conflicts and despair.What is Shakti? A Sanskrit word for the Divine Feminine — Shakti is the Goddess and Mother of all creation who has guarded and led me evercloser to her. Shakti’s powers are infinite. She is the primordial feminine force of creation. As the primordial feminine energy, she is the root source on which all else depends for survival, nourishment, and thriving. She exists in every iota of life, each life form, and in all genders, albeit only women carry her power in its awakened form. This concept is rooted in the idea that women are the repository of both creative and destructivepower, reflecting the dual nature of feminine primordial power. In Hinduism, women’s inheritance of Shakti is used toempower them, to resist patriarchy and reclaim their inherentdivine power.The work of I Am Shakti emerged after years of being violently targeted and assaulted by a group of well-funded haters who carried out their attacks with military precision. This abysmal reality awakened the sleeping warrior within my soul. I awoke with only one option that is to energize my purpose in this birth by standing tall in spirit and speaking truth. Suffering aside, my experience of being a brown skinned woman whom they dared to target gave me access to their devious schemes as I honed my ability to dissect their history and legacy which together we must conquer if we are to regain full human sentiency. For eons, patriarchal rule has been reeking havoc on the lives of men, women and nature as a whole. They have succeeded in strategically numbing individual intelligence, dumbing our voices to fit into their inscrutable model- that of a life bereft of awareness. Both masculine and feminine energies have been enduring crippling disempowerment. To safeguard the life and sacred purpose of our planet we must stop living as the unmourned and recover consciousness. Obviously, I Am Shakti, is not for the faint hearted. Drawing on ancient Vedic wisdom, historical and current events, and my personal story, I explored how the fear of the feminine has been weaponized throughout history. At its core, I Am Shakti is an impassioned plea for women, in particular, to reclaim their innate Shakti nature to foster justice, compassion, cooperation, love, and nourishment for all beings. The book calls for balancing the primordial Shiva-Shakti energy, the universal masculine-feminine force that generates harmony and nourishment for all life. To recreate sentient world, we must shift from a dualistic, binary understanding of this energy toward a non-dual, nurturing wholeness that exists within every individual. I Am Shakti serves as both a personal transformation story and a guide, offering simple Vedic practices and encouragement to help readers restore balance within themselves and the world. Profoundly stirring, this book is a celestial hymn to the divine feminine, resonating deeply within the cosmic tapestry of life.Support the showMay Peace Be Your Journey~www.mayatiwari.comwww.facebook.com/mayatiwariahimsa.Buzzsprout.com Get Maya’s New Book: I Am Shakti: https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/o-books/our-books/I-am-shakti Amazon.com Bookshop.org
