Feminity is the Supreme Power!

Seeing the title, some of my male friends might wonder if I am writing against them! But this is one of my favourite ones ever since I came in contact with His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. My question to you is.- Do you think Feminity is present only in a female? If you thought so, I totally challenge that idea. Every human,  whether a male or a female is made up of both the qualities of masculinity and Feminity. I equate the quality of Feminity with motherhood, love and energy and masculinity with peace, potential and strength.  But I consider Feminity to be supreme and much more powerful than masculinity.

According to the Hindu belief, Shiva is considered a male and he represents the consciousness itself which pervades every particle of this creation and beyond. But Devi is considered a female who is the very reason for the creation to function. Devi is responsible for the movement of the subtle life force energy which brings all the liveliness in this creation. Without Devi energy Shiva remains only as a potential and there would be nothing tangible. Without the help of Devi, there is no way one can realize the truth that is Shiva.

If this is confusing, I can switch to science and try to explain this. According to the quantum physics, everything in this world is made up of quantum energy. The quantum is nothing but vibration. Essentially everything that we see, touch, hear, taste and smell are some kind of vibration which also means movement with different frequencies. I consider the movement to be even possible because of the Devi energy and the potential of this movement is called Shiva. In reality there is no difference between the two as the Silent form of the energy is called Shiva and the dynamic form of the same energy is called Devi or Shakti.

But in order to realize the Silent form one has to take the help of the dynamic form which is the very basis for every expression in this world. That is the reason why we see so many forms of Devi in Hindu worship. We see the serene form as well the dreadful form. We see the divine smile as well as the deadly anger. We see the mother divine that represents supreme love as well as the utmost devoted Radha (which means longing).

Every form of art is feminine and every beauty in the world is feminine. All Rivers are feminine in every native culture of the world. Life is born through women who represent Feminity in its pure form. Every person gets any kind of solace in this world only through feminine qualities of motherhood, compassion and Love. Joy be it physical or spiritual is possible only through Feminity. Any spiritual experience is essentially only the feminine energy moving upward all the way from the base of the spine to the top of the head. One remains grateful after that and the quality of gratitude itself is feminine. Out of gratitude one goes and serves people and serving as an expression of joy and Love itself again is feminine. All the blessings that get bestowed out of the service is again feminine. So as I mentioned earlier every possible expression and experience in this creation is possible only because of the Feminity and hence it is all supreme and all powerful!!!
