Shambhavi: The Shakti Archetypes

By Dr Pallavi Kwatra

Shambhavi also reflects the transition zone when the day is almost at an end and the night has begun to take over. Thus, depicting Shakti as her various swaroopas (forms) transitioning from the benevolent and beautiful one to the ferocious and raw energy on the other. She cannot be co notated as a single identity as she flows like a river between the banks of paradoxes. The one who can acknowledge her variable identities and yet know that she transcends all identity is her qualified recipient and will surf the tides of samsara.This book portrays her in her 111 forms, the baseline principle remaining her nirguna, niraakar swaroopa. As the reader flows through the book, his own conditioning to see her as the form is fractured and he is laid open at her altar...for a similar transcendence and freedom.

This book is a study of various forms of Shakti across the world as the Dasamahavidya book, Saptamatrika book, 64 Yogini book & other 30 miscellaneous Goddesses from various world traditions can enable one to witness her in myriad ways and shapes.
