Satsang from London
Śiva is universal consciousness, liberation, truth, and beauty, the self-manifested source of all. Yoga, the Vedas, and all wisdom originate from Śiva, who can destroy negativity with the third eye. The Śiva liṅga represents the endless universe, which is space. Within that space is consciousness. The energy that unites space and consciousness is Śakti, the primal power behind all perception and action. Śakti is not gender but the divine energy balancing creation. Two forces exist: the divine spiritual energy and the destructive demonic energy. Śiva oversees creation and dissolution, intervening only when necessary. True devotion is the heart's surrender, leading to liberation.
"Śiva means mokṣa. Śiva means liberation. Śiva means the consciousness."
"Without that Śakti, our body cannot exist."
