Every saturday when I visit the Shiva temple, I feel a strong sense of Amma's presence. She is, after all, the Queen of Shiva. And Shiva is the Lord of all kings, the Lord of our senses while Amma is the Queen of everything compassionate. This union of Amma or Devi and Shiva has to be the most complete one in the universe. The feminine and the masculine. The meeting of perfection. When I think of Amma and Shiva, I think the world of male and female is actually meant to be like that: equals. Because all the power of the universe could not be held in one body, it got divided into the masculine and the feminine. And Devi and Shiva are the bonding of that power. May Amma always rule as a Queen not only over Shiva's heart but over each of our hearts. For in actuality, She resides not in an ashram but in the goodness that is present within each one of us.
Om Amriteswariye namah!
