Dec 3, 2010 Chinnamasta Sadhana Day 18
Everything is here. Totality. All the residues. Deep karmic undercurrents rising to be seen. In the past when there has been the tilling of deep karma there has been frustration. Maybe even hoplessness. Right now it is a joy to see them. I know this seems odd. But it tells me the sadhana is moving things. The writing process of these subtle nuances is so challenging. But now there is joy. The joy comes from actually touching places that are so mummified in denial that it feels ecstatic to unwrap them and let them breathe. To begin to turn the karma and look at it from all angles and reflecting all different shades of light and dark. To see these things just as they are. Seeds of action. Life resurrects in their unwrapping. I also find relief. The perspective has changed to utter fascination as to what will happen as these knots untie. For the moment I am not worried about the outcome, just studiously feeling to where they will lead depending on the depth of my identification with them. Like a child who pulls different knobs and buttons on toys to find out what function they perform. Some buttons you know will lead to a certain result. Good or bad. But sometimes you have to just keep pushing them to be sure. Right now Chinnamasta is showing me the joy of all things. The joy of consciousness rising and regenerating. The joy when liberation bursts open from the shackles of dullness. I feel fed. I am being regenerated. The shakti of the shakti is coursing through the electrical impulses in my body and allowing alert & awake perception.
The arousing thunder.
Laughing words.
“Ha ha.”

Oh my.
I am very much in this same place these days.
There has been an energetic shift for me this past week that is liberating and joyous.
Thank you for speaking your truth and affirming my path.
Namaste'

SOME BEAUTIFUL WORDS ABOUT "Maa CHHINNAMASTA
In fact, the only path to the spiritual awakening is the so-called "sacrifice of the mind", implying the renunciation at the complicated mechanism of attachment and possession thoughts, of which the most persistent is the idea "I am the body".
In the spiritual tradition this sacrifice is symbolized by the cutting off of the head, suggestively indicating the separation of the mind from the body, that is the freedom of the consciousness from the material outfit of the physical body.
"WHICH IS CALLED "UNNAMANI" ...
