[Shivani Devi]

For every experience, there is that which facilitates it, even if self-facilitation is its own reward.

To others, it is very difficult for them to understand why I worship Lord Siva in all glorious form, when He is, in essence, formless which is tantamount to Him not existing and yet, He still does, at least to me anyway and when I say that, I mean that I have directly realised it, where those who take me to task over it have not.

I had this fellow the other day telling me that God is just a word and all Gods are the same, so instead of worshiping Siva, why aren't you worshiping Yahweh? to which, I said that if I worshiped Yahweh, I would have another uninformed idiot come along and say "instead of worshiping Yahweh, why aren't you worshiping Allah?"

So, in my experiences Siva exists as both the personal and impersonal. To many, this is a total conundrum...it cannot be that way because "I AM" simply means that nothing else IS because the nature of my being negates it from existing...how silly and naive this is!

There are those who speak from knowledge, those who speak from wisdom and never the twain shall meet.
