Shakti & Shiva | Quotes by Guru Singam Basantji

Invocations, prayers, and sacred reflections that lead the seeker into the presence of the Divine.

When the eyes open, it is Śakti that is experienced.

When the eyes close, it is Śiva that is revealed.

One is the Ultimate Reality; the other, the Ultimate Truth.

And the sacred pulsation between opening and closing - that living continuum - is Śrī Dēvī Lalithā.

-Singamm Basant P.

What you truly are is Shiva; what you are trying to be is “your name.”

-Singamm Basant P.

P.S. Add your name at the end, and watch the illusion reveal itself

The Divine Masculine becomes Shiva only through the presence of Shakti, the Divine Feminine. Without Shakti, He is merely Shava. The essence of Shiva is captured in "She-Wah!"—for it is through Her that His beauty is revealed, and His very name sings Her praise. Thus, Shiva = She-Wah!

-Singamm Basant P.

Access to Devi in Her entirety (Self Awareness) is granted through your Guru and the same access further grants the access to Shiva (Self in all) as your own Self Realisation. Reaching one without the other is a reflection of your own immaturity. How can any one of these be separated from each other?

Think about it.
