There is not a moment that goes by in which I do not feel her. I am surrounded by the subtle notes of intuition that arise in her presence and the not-so-subtle ripples of her battles in this realm. I know you know what I mean. The trees, oceans, bears and wind all speak her name. A kirtan—call and response—ensues, and those who are attuned listen. The chanting has its charms.\r\n\r\nRecently, she asked me to give more of myself. “But I already…,” I start to say, and she just kisses me sweetly, replying, “Darling, I know how much you do. Still, there is more to be done.” She is right, of course, and I acknowledge that my energy is dispersed and needs to focus for better effect in the world. There are some things that are too important to be lost in my chaos. How then to manage this, I wonder; but not for long. My spiritual practice guides me to breakthrough on the inner planes that has real outer world ramifications and manifestations. I learn the first lessons of empowered spiritual leadership: listen, tell your truth, take responsibility, stand your ground.\r\n\r\nShe then asks me what I believe in. I go back to a childhood filled with lies, betrayal, physical violence, and an empty fridge until Grandma comes to fill it up. I realize that I have spent much of my life creating values in response to those around me, and I need to ask what is there that is genuinely born from within me. I meditate on my birth and the will to survive interweaves tightly with the wounding of abandonment. What is mine? I sink into awareness around subsequent years of therapy, anger, resentment, and a sense of loss in relationship to my youth. I take pause and realize that I have grown much, and the obstacles have provided me with strength and power. In my crafting of faith, these avenues of challenge have led directly to the unseen realms upon which I draw heavily in my work for social transformation. Nothing is wasted.\r\n\r\nShe called me today to ask that I make a personally significant donation to a cause I care a lot about. I was not planning on giving again before the year was out, but she just winked and said, “You can do it—the women need your money as much as they need your prayers.” Nothing could be more true. Had I not dived deep into my own story, I know the insights that came around what I believe and value would not have been revealed. I would not have found either justification or motivation for a financial contribution. Moreover, it would not have seemed relevant. No one would have benefited and I would have been less humble.\r\n\r\nA brother in the work of ministry had her card not long ago, one on which she had written my name. “Spirit babies,” was all that was otherwise noted, and I was asked to help create a ritual for all the mamas and papas who grieved or sorrowed over the loss of a child through abortion, stillbirth or miscarriage. My own embodied experiences were present in the mix of emotions that circled through me with the call. I felt honored to be asked. I will help, and I will write a prayer that brings healing, if none but my own, and will ask for an opening to her mysteries, the greatest of them perhaps held in the spaces of life and death.\r\n\r\nWhat is being created in response to her call? A life worth living.','Maa is calling me in this moment...','','publish','open','open','','hello-world','','','2011-12-10 23:28:51','2011-12-11 07:28:51','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/?p=1',0,'post','',0),(49,1,'2012-02-20 22:03:35','2012-02-21 06:03:35','','PantheaCon Kali Puja 021912 II','','inherit','open','open','','pantheacon-kali-puja-021912-ii','','','2012-02-20 22:03:35','2012-02-21 06:03:35','',48,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/PantheaCon-Kali-Puja-021912-II.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(48,1,'2012-02-20 22:47:06','2012-02-21 06:47:06','It was perhaps no accident that exactly 108 of us gathered last night at 11PM for a ritual dedicated to the Divine Mother, Kali Maa. In Hinduism, the number 108 is considered especially auspicious, aligning the heavens and Earth in powerful relationship toward peace.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/PantheaCon-Kali-Puja-021912-II.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-49\" title=\"PantheaCon Kali Puja 021912 II\" src=\"http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/PantheaCon-Kali-Puja-021912-II-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Kali Maa at SHARANYA\'s Kali Puja PCon 2012\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" /></a>Indeed, our ceremony for the <a title=\"Why the Dark Goddess? \" href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/shacan/darkgoddess.php4\" target=\"_blank\">Dark Goddess</a> was imbued with the special fragrance of the Divine as She opened internal gateways and sweetly unleashed her scythe of discrimination among us.\r\n\r\nSome come to Kali hoping to score power and prestige, Her allure a false understanding of the wild ride She promises. Others come fearing Her mysteries, an ego-driven humility rather than a willingness to get raw to be found beneath their lowered gazes.\r\n\r\nThe work of our Kali Puja was to draw out the heartfelt yearning that lay at the bottom of it all, first using mantra to stir up our insides and strengthen our resolve.  With reverberations of <a title=\"OM KRIM KALYAI NAMAH Mantra\" href=\"http://www.jukeboxalive.com/audio_play_offsite.php?mid=1980825&amp;skin=1980563\" target=\"_blank\">OM KRIM KALYAI NAMAH</a> in the air, our <em>pranayama</em> then asked the guidance of Pranashakti to hold the channel of our potential open to let Goddess do what was needed.\r\n\r\nSome called Her name with abandon, others cried softly into their palms. Maa was there, bold, audacious, soft and supple in all Her glory. Provocations to remember were made and community supported the energy of vitalization with focused breath, intention, and a drumbeat of connection to Earth and ancestors. We called on one another as family and the circle strengthened.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-50\" style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial;\" title=\"PantheaCon Kali Puja 021912\" src=\"http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/PantheaCon-Kali-Puja-021912-292x300.jpg\" alt=\"SHARANYA\'s Small Kali Altar @ PantheaCon 2012\" width=\"292\" height=\"300\" />\r\n<div>\r\n\r\nOur meditation began, like the <a title=\"51 Names of Kali Maa\" href=\"http://www.jukeboxalive.com/audio_play_offsite.php?mid=1981907&amp;skin=1980563\" target=\"_blank\">chanting of Her sacred names</a>, on the cremation ground. From there, the variety of our experience expanded, each of us engaged in relationship with Maa unique to our own soul\'s calling. Some of us touched Her feet in our mind\'s eye, lowering ourselves naked to the Divine Will. Others made offerings of flowers and incense, blood and ghee, a sacrifice that the eternal fire be lit within us in attunement with our personal <em>sankalpa</em>, our sacred intention.\r\n\r\nFrom the internal landscape, we traveled into the space of celebration, singing <a title=\"Jai Maa! SHARANYA\'s Aarati to Maa\" href=\"http://www.jukeboxalive.com/audio_play_offsite.php?mid=1981943&amp;skin=1980563\" target=\"_blank\">Jai Maa!</a> in praise of Her, honoring the work of the night and the work to come, for we had opened to Her in our lives, some of us, in new and deepened ways. Our hearts lifted with the clanging of the bell, knowing that hope lives eternal in Her embrace, and we each had our moment for <em>darshan</em>, the outward look of seeing Her eye to eye before the circling slowed and we grounded, answering the call, \"Jai Maa Kali ki...\" with a resounding, \"JAI!\".\r\n\r\nGratitudes offered, the circle returned to breath and awareness of the gifts of the night. Prayers and thanksgiving to those guardians and spirits who had accompanied us, and we were ready for a step, almost, back into the evening\'s mundane consciousness. A bit of <em>prasad</em>, the sacred food first offered to Maa within us, we learned some about Her favorite offerings and places in India before the circle was opened. Hearts full, we departed, 108 of us blessed.\r\n\r\n</div>','Kali Puja at PantheaCon 2012','','publish','open','open','','kali-puja-at-pantheacon-2012','','','2012-02-20 22:47:06','2012-02-21 06:47:06','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/?p=48',0,'post','',0),(4,1,'2011-12-11 05:41:27','2011-12-11 05:41:27','http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/sanskritbackground.jpg','sanskritbackground.jpg','','inherit','open','open','','sanskritbackground-jpg','','','2011-12-11 05:41:27','2011-12-11 05:41:27','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/sanskritbackground.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(5,1,'2011-12-11 05:43:26','2011-12-11 05:43:26','','Kali Vidya','','publish','open','open','','kali-vidya','','','2012-07-06 23:52:45','2012-07-07 06:52:45','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/?p=5',4,'nav_menu_item','',0),(13,1,'2011-12-11 05:53:54','2011-12-11 05:53:54','http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/cropped-DSC_0284.jpg','cropped-DSC_0284.jpg','','inherit','closed','open','','cropped-dsc_0284-jpg','','','2011-12-11 05:53:54','2011-12-11 05:53:54','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/cropped-DSC_0284.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(7,1,'2011-12-11 05:45:56','2011-12-11 05:45:56','http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/cropped-DSC_0551.jpg','cropped-DSC_0551.jpg','','inherit','closed','open','','cropped-dsc_0551-jpg','','','2011-12-11 05:45:56','2011-12-11 05:45:56','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/cropped-DSC_0551.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(14,1,'2011-12-10 22:41:38','2011-12-11 06:41:38','<h4><a style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 24px;\" title=\"Women of Spirit and Faith\" href=\"http://www.patheos.com/blogs/thedivinefeminine/\" target=\"_blank\">Women of Spirit and Faith</a><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 24px;\"> asked for November: \"What is the Divine Feminine calling you to do in this moment?\" <a title=\"Chandra Alexandre\" href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/about/council.php4\" target=\"_blank\">Chandra Alexandre</a> responds:</span></h4>\r\n<h4></h4>\r\n<h4><span class=\"Apple-style-span\" style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 24px;\">Shakti is calling me to rise up.

In the spirit of the Sha\'can tradition, in which mind, body, and spirit co-mingle in conscious creation, classes require commitment, outside reading, participation, and active engagement of Spirit in the day-to-day world.\r\n\r\nFor additional information on our program, visit us <a title=\"Daughters of Kali\" href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/shacan/dok.php4\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.','Daughters of Kali','','inherit','open','open','','25-revision-2','','','2011-12-10 22:23:36','2011-12-11 06:23:36','',25,'http://sharanya.org/?p=28',0,'revision','',0),(29,1,'2011-12-11 06:04:22','2011-12-11 06:04:22','SHARANYA is a unique 501(c)(3) religious organization and <em>Devi Mandir</em> (goddess temple) evolving Shakta (goddess-honoring) spirituality from ancient roots to serve those who seek to know Kali Maa beyond the boundaries of geography and religious dogma.

She is calling me to risk. She is calling me to relate. She rests on a bed of will, knowledge and action, entwined with Shiva, the pure consciousness that follows her call, in order to relax into some powerful creation work. There is not a moment that goes by in which I do not feel her. I am surrounded by the subtle notes of intuition that arise in her presence and the not-so-subtle ripples of her battles in this realm. I know you know what I mean. The trees, oceans, bears and wind all speak her name. A kirtan—call and response—ensues, and those who are attuned listen. The chanting has its charms.\r\n\r\nRecently, she asked me to give more of myself. “But I already…,” I start to say, and she just kisses me sweetly, replying, “Darling, I know how much you do. Still, there is more to be done.” She is right, of course, and I acknowledge that my energy is dispersed and needs to focus for better effect in the world. There are some things that are too important to be lost in my chaos. How then to manage this, I wonder; but not for long. My spiritual practice guides me to breakthrough on the inner planes that has real outer world ramifications and manifestations. I learn the first lessons of empowered spiritual leadership: listen, tell your truth, take responsibility, stand your ground.\r\n\r\nShe then asks me what I believe in. I go back to a childhood filled with lies, betrayal, physical violence, and an empty fridge until Grandma comes to fill it up. I realize that I have spent much of my life creating values in response to those around me, and I need to ask what is there that is genuinely born from within me. I meditate on my birth and the will to survive interweaves tightly with the wounding of abandonment. What is mine? I sink into awareness around subsequent years of therapy, anger, resentment, and a sense of loss in relationship to my youth. I take pause and realize that I have grown much, and the obstacles have provided me with strength and power. In my crafting of faith, these avenues of challenge have led directly to the unseen realms upon which I draw heavily in my work for social transformation. Nothing is wasted.\r\n\r\nShe called me today to ask that I make a personally significant donation to a cause I care a lot about. I was not planning on giving again before the year was out, but she just winked and said, “You can do it—the women need your money as much as they need your prayers.” Nothing could be more true. Had I not dived deep into my own story, I know the insights that came around what I believe and value would not have been revealed. I would not have found either justification or motivation for a financial contribution. Moreover, it would not have seemed relevant. No one would have benefited and I would have been less humble.\r\n\r\nA brother in the work of ministry had her card not long ago, one on which she had written my name. “Spirit babies,” was all that was otherwise noted, and I was asked to help create a ritual for all the mamas and papas who grieved or sorrowed over the loss of a child through abortion, stillbirth or miscarriage. My own embodied experiences were present in the mix of emotions that circled through me with the call. I felt honored to be asked. I will help, and I will write a prayer that brings healing, if none but my own, and will ask for an opening to her mysteries, the greatest of them perhaps held in the spaces of life and death.\r\n\r\nWhat is being created in response to her call?

The circle is open to both women and men. Minimum age for participation is 18, although younger students may be considered with application and parental/guardian consent.\r\n\r\nThrough Daughters of Kali, one gains an understanding of Kali and the goddesses of the Tantrick path. At each meeting, we work together using ritual, myth, lecture, readings, discussion, spiritual practices, and group work to deepen understanding of the Divine Female in historical, cultural and psycho-spiritual perspectives. In the spirit of the Sha\'can tradition, in which mind, body, and spirit co-mingle in conscious creation, classes require commitment, outside reading, participation, and active engagement of Spirit in the day-to-day world.\r\n\r\nFor additional information on our program, visit us <a title=\"Daughters of Kali\" href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/shacan/dok.php4\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.','Daughters of Kali','','inherit','open','open','','25-revision-3','','','2011-12-10 22:24:32','2011-12-11 06:24:32','',25,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/?p=47',0,'revision','',0),(51,1,'2012-02-20 22:45:59','2012-02-21 06:45:59','It was perhaps no accident that exactly 108 of us gathered last night at 11PM for a ritual dedicated to the Divine Mother, Kali Maa.

As expressions of devotion and contemplation, they are similar to Tibetan mandalas in that meditation upon them is tantamount to returning to the primordial fiat of one’s being. Because yantras are comprised of archetypal geometric forms and shapes, they are believed to offer liberation from bondage.\r\n\r\nThere are many different yantras, all of which have specific intentions and meanings. For instance, the sri yantra (believed to be the mother of all yantras) is made up of nine interlacing triangles, five inverted ones which represent Shakti and four upright ones which represent Shiva. As a symbolic map of a human being’s spiritual journey, the sri yantra describes nine different routes (from the center, or bindu, to the outer plane) that represent a different stage in the process.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignleft\" style=\"color: #333333; font-style: normal; line-height: 24px; margin-top: 0.4em;\" title=\"Kali Yantra\" src=\"http://media.jbanetwork.com/image/cache/8/6/5/9/3/6_w220_h214_s1_PT0_PR15_PB0_PL0_PCffffff.jpg\" alt=\"Kali Yantra\" width=\"235\" height=\"214\" />\r\n\r\nAs a geometric symbol, the yantra represents everything that can be internalized in our consciousness. Ma Kali, the mother of time (and its destruction), is also the progenitor of breath, divine love, and transformation. The elegant Kali yantra can thus be understood as a signifier of transformation and healing. To meditate upon it is to surrender totally to the energy of spiritual growth, and to turn emotional catharsis to one’s spiritual advantage.\r\n\r\nThe 36 centers of the Kali yantra correspond to the 36 principles of creation. The central bindu itself is the elemental aspect of the soul, and of Kali, from which everything in the material world emanates<strong>.</strong>\r\n\r\nThe five inverted triangles of the yantra represent the sheaths of human consciousness: physical, life force, mental/emotional, wisdom, and bliss. And the inverted position of the triangles symbolize the regenerative power of the divine feminine. The two circles represent life and death. The eight lotus petals that surround the bindu represent the eight tattvas of nature: earth, water, fire, air, ether, the lower mind, the higher mind, and the ego.\r\n\r\nThe colors of the yantra are also, of course, symbolic. Red represents the life blood and energy of the manifested world, black represents the eternal mystery of the void from which creation ensues, and gray represents the liminal space between realms.\r\n\r\nTo meditate on the Kali yantra, simply do the following:\r\n<ol>\r\n	<li>Gaze at the bindu of the yantra, being sure to concentrate on your third eye, or Ajna chakra.</li>\r\n	<li>Experience and relish the exchange of energy between the yantra and your heart center, which is where Ma resides.</li>\r\n	<li>Let the colors of the yantra infuse your consciousness.</li>\r\n	<li>Silently call forth on the regenerative power of Kali, which has the power to transform the deepest suffering into the deepest bliss and wareness.</li>\r\n	<li>Close your eyes now, but let the image of the yantra remain with you.</li>\r\n	<li>Chant the sacred breath of Ma Kali, “sa’ham,” and stay relaxed and peaceful.</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">  <strong><em>Jai Kali Maa!</em></strong></p>\r\nContributed by Nirmala Nataraj for the SHARANYA <a title=\"SHARANYA\'s May Newsletter\" href=\"http://www.mynewsletterbuilder.com/email/newsletter/1411330215\" target=\"_blank\">May newsletter</a>.

Devotees gathered in San Francisco from near and far for the celebration that joins us with tens of thousands of devotees as the time of Goddess\' menstruation and Ambubachi Mela approaches at the shrine of Maa Kamakhya in Assam, India.\r\n\r\nOur temple full, invocations were chanted and songs to the Divine Mother sung as drum beats proclaimed our sincerity and heart\'s yearning. Many had never uttered her names, but tonight, we filled ourselves with love and honored She Who Resides on the Blue Mountain as Universal Mother. At the same time, we did the essential work of looking within to initiate a more personal process, one of connecting to the vibrations and essences of Truth and Beauty that She embodies as each part of creation.\r\n\r\nAfter our meditation and deeper dive into the internal landscape, we surfaced to reflect in Her holy waters, cleanse, make offerings and let our intentions be known. Maa was there as Her praises rippled in tones and through movements around community. We approached with care, deliberately and with humility, anointing Her and accepting blessings.  Red and pink flowers encircling her murti, devotees sipped of Her nectar and bowed low in respectful obeisance.\r\n\r\nOur time for individual prayers and darshan done, the air filled with the beat of the drum once more, and with bells ringing in celebration, we sang, danced and shouted with joy for the presence felt, surrender achieved, and all the moments filled with meaning yet to be revealed.\r\n\r\nJai Maa Kamakhya ki Jai!\r\n\r\n<a title=\"Devi\'s Yoni: The Divine Mother Kamakhya\" href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/blog/index.php?id=M200807\" target=\"_blank\">Read</a> about one of our past pilgrimages to India during Ambubachi Mela to learn more about the Goddess.','Yoni Puja 2012','','publish','open','open','','yoni-puja-2012','','','2012-06-19 23:33:31','2012-06-20 06:33:31','',0,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/?p=65',0,'post','',0),(73,1,'2012-07-06 21:06:40','2012-07-07 04:06:40','With roots deep in ancient consciousness and a lineage of worship that has lived for millennia in the hearts of humanity, we at SHARANYA honor Goddess, She who facilitates the spiritual journey by taking us to the root of our yearning, beyond our fears, beyond our ego, beyond our attachments and into liberation. This is the work of Sha\'can, our practice, and our devotion. Ours is truly the path of the <em>bhakta</em> (devotee) of the Divine, who treasures the temple of this world as vehicle for spiritual unfoldment, healing, and bliss. Ultimately, we believe an integral and (r)evolutionary approach to spirituality will best help us to achieve our <a href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/about/mission.php4\">mission and vision</a>.\r\n\r\nSha\'can is an authentic lineage tradition given to us through blood-right and <a href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/about/history.php4\">initiatory blessing</a>. With origins in the Craft (commonly referred to as Wicca) and the Shakta <em>marga</em>(way or path of Goddess-worshiping Hindu Tantra), we weave together the paths of both the Shakta Tantrick and the Witch. At its core, Sha\'can expands Tantrick Mother Worship and sanctifies earth-based embodied spirituality by bringing Kalika Devi to life with <a href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/shacan/ecofeminismandtantra.php4\">relevance for our circumstances today on Western shores</a>. In our tradition, we celebrate the commonalities of thought and practice that bring the marginal to center. From here, we hold that everything is possible.\r\n\r\nSha\'can is at once groundbreaking and what has always happened with goddess worshipers in and beyond India--we create what we need, for She can not be ignored! Ours is a Western Tantrick tradition that deeply honors its lineages, carrying the ??kta path from India to the West and revivifying the Old Religion, while at the same time embracing new wisdom as it serves the work of the Divine. Indeed, Shakta Tantra articulated through Sha\'can is a rooted category of challenge to the dominant culture in which it is found and from which it comes.

Indeed, Shakta Tantra articulated through Sha\'can is a rooted category of challenge to the dominant culture in which it is found and from which it comes. The tradition is helping to build self-worth and positive identity frameworks for practitioners; is fostering the development of participatory and engaged spirituality; and is providing tools for the affirmation of Shakti in the world. It is a new religion inspired by the old, relevant to the circumstances of today, and grounded in the potentials of tomorrow.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/about/initiations.php4\">Learn more</a> about our Tantrick roots...and how Shakta Tantra is emerging in the West <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaktism#Expansion_Beyond_South_Asia\">today</a>.','The Tradition','','inherit','open','open','','73-revision-6','','','2012-07-06 21:20:46','2012-07-07 04:20:46','',73,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/73-revision-6/',0,'revision','',0),(85,1,'2011-12-10 23:29:28','2011-12-11 07:29:28','Daughters of Kali, also affectionately known as \"DoK,\" is a year-long practice and learning circle in the Sha\'can tradition with emphasis on Tantra and the honoring of Kali Maa, our beloved Dark Mother. The circle is open to both women and men. Minimum age for participation is 18, although younger students may be considered with application and parental/guardian consent.\r\n\r\nThrough Daughters of Kali, one gains an understanding of Kali and the goddesses of the Tantrick path. At each meeting, we work together using ritual, myth, lecture, readings, discussion, spiritual practices, and group work to deepen understanding of the Divine Female in historical, cultural and psycho-spiritual perspectives. In the spirit of the Sha\'can tradition, in which mind, body, and spirit co-mingle in conscious creation, classes require commitment, outside reading, participation, and active engagement of Spirit in the day-to-day world.\r\n\r\nFor additional information on our program, visit us <a title=\"Daughters of Kali\" href=\"http://www.sharanya.org/shacan/dok.php4\" target=\"_blank\">here</a>.','Daughters of Kali','','inherit','open','open','','25-revision-4','','','2011-12-10 23:29:28','2011-12-11 07:29:28','',25,'http://sharanya.org/mandala/25-revision-4/',0,'revision','',0),(86,1,'2012-07-06 23:39:18','2012-07-07 06:39:18','SHARANYA is a unique 501(c)(3) religious organization and <em>Devi Mandir</em> (goddess temple) evolving Shakta (goddess-honoring) spirituality from ancient roots to serve those who seek to know Kali Maa beyond the boundaries of geography and religious dogma.

Everyone is welcome in Maa\'s house!</em></strong></p>\r\n<span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">SHARANYA/The <a href=\"http://sharanya.org/sanctuary/maabatakali.html\">Maa Batakali</a> Cultural Mission, Inc., is a federally-recognized 501(c)(3) <em>Devi Mandir</em> (Goddess Temple), nestled near the ocean in vibrant San Francisco.</span></span>\r\n\r\nIn our Sanctuary, we hold a sacred intention to break dualistic constructions of spirit open into a paradoxical cosmology riding the edge of chaos and order; for we know that this is the place where everything is created. Together, we work to un-demonize the Sacred Feminine in service to an embodied, integral spirituality and work for life-affirming transformation by radically engaging the disciplines and spiritual technologies of energy and consciousness, as well as awareness of the combination of ontology, epistemology, axiology and methodology that encompasses the formation of a new worldview. Ours is a (R)evolutionary Shakta Tantra!\r\n\r\nIn the sacred texts of Tantra, we learn of Her expression of virtues. She is Divine Mother, and we honor Her as such. Yet, it is also true that sexuality, the fecundity of menstrual blood, the wild and untamable nature of reality, and all things antinomian come together in Her. Through Her, Dark Goddess, we see the potential for liberation because Devi is able, as dictated in the scriptures and by the lineage of the ancients, to lead aspirants to the highest and most engaged reality.\r\n\r\nOur sanctuary is our home temple where we contemplate Her mysteries. We gather regularly for active worship (<em>puja</em>), meditation, satsang, community building, rites of passage work, life-event ceremonies, lectures, and classes. Join us! In addition, for those seeking deeper work we also provide opportunities for study, initiation and ordination. Our regular wheel-of-the-year <a href=\"http://sharanya.org/calendar/\">calendar of services</a> may help orient you to our tradition and offerings. Other community rituals and work provided in service to our commitment to engaged spirituality include spiritual counseling, divination (tarot), <em>amavasya</em> (new moon) and <em>purnima</em>(full moon) celebrations, and personal healing through energy work. Take a look at our offerings, and join us in expanding Spirit in the world!\r\n\r\nThe SHARANYA community is proud of our temple space, and yet we are growing into a community that yearns for a private space large enough to accommodate us. To that end, we have launched a fundraising campaign in order to create a public Goddess temple in San Francisco that will celebrate Her in all Her guises, and especially in Her most powerful forms. It will be a space open to public and private use by and for the community and will be a center for interfaith dialogue that includes the Goddess community. All donations to the effort are tax-deductible.

Simply, the puja offers worship to Maa\'s body in their various parts, extolling Her virtues as the devotee does so.\r\n\r\nAfter our individual sadhana and internal worship, we praised Maa in our sanctuary with <a title=\"Aarati\" href=\"http://www.mynewsletterbuilder.com/tools/view_newsletter.php?newsletter_id=1409952411#article_7\" target=\"_blank\">aarati</a> and personal devotions. The circle was opened with gratitudes and a final offering of thanks to all the spirits, guides, ancestors and deities who had joined in the rites.\r\n\r\nWe will meet again in August, but our rituals will be for our soon-to-be initiates and our elders who choose to rededicate to Her for another year and a day. Blessings to all those who have and who continue to travel the path.

Nothing could have set the stage better for our worship than the yearning heart of a lover of Maa.\r\n\r\nOur puja was meditative and blissful, a call to listen deeply to our internal landscape for reverberations of soul. Devotees gathered in the space to the simple sounds of OM MAA, and we together came into her embrace gently and sweetly. Some of us called to her aloud, others only in our hearts. Our circling created a container for the evening\'s work and then our breath to the beat of SA\'HAM (She I Am) invited Goddess Kali to be present. If we have nothing else, we have our breath to guide and provide inspiration for worship.\r\n\r\nThis Kali Puja asked us to remember why we are here and it challenged us to own the truth of our incarnation. Wounded, knowing pain and suffering, we still chose life. With this, the puja asked us to be the fullest truth, to reflect our soul\'s purpose, in order to give back to Maa the life she provided. Doing so, we will each find freedom and experience love.\r\n\r\nFrom invocation to deep meditation, devotees worked the mantra OM KRIM KALYAI NAMAH from breath to bone. We allowed Maa to enter consciousness and then permeate our bodies as a liberator, a devourer of falsehood. We felt her passion alive within us as space was created for our emerging selves to be revealed.\r\n\r\nThis called for a celebration, and a chorus of JAI MAA! danced about the room, syllables lifted on voices filled with power and emotion. Her ability to see us, hold us, and allow us to be all of who we are and are becoming was palpable. The potency of Maa Kali shone in our eyes.\r\n\r\nGratitudes to all sisters and brothers present in the flesh and in spirit.
