Just in. 

(Friday March 1, 2024)

A terrorist attack happened a few hours ago just outside my house and I heard it. I am safe. I wasn't injured but some people have died in my neighborhood. 

There was a terror blast outside my house. The cops are here investigating it and it's all over the news. I heard the loud blast, the loudest sound I have ever heard in my life. I was shaking.. Many people died. I'm safe. 

Bad news. Just trying to keep calm. 

This is the third blast I have come across in my life. First was at a mall when I was a teen. Second was at a place where I studied. 

This is the third. Explosions, bomb blasts and mass shootings have become so common. Welcome to a new normal. 

I am feeling some trauma but I'll be okay.

Shiva is the ultimate soulmate. 

I feel like I have reached enlightenment with Shiva. I'm not exactly looking for enlightenment. But I have experienced something abnormal. Shiva is an intense energy, more than any Hindu deity. My spiritual journey starts here with Shiva. And Shaktipat. 

Spirituality is nothing but the energy of nothingness and Soulmate energy. This energy is Kundalini energy. This energy is Tantric energy. This energy is both violent and gentle, reptilian as well as compassionate. It's both earthly and divine. 

Shiva's energy is the strongest among all deities I've been trying to connect with. 

All deities or energies are also soulmates just in different forms. 

It's like this. 

Brahman is my Soulmate.

Vishnu is my Soulmate. 

Rama is my Soulmate. 

Krishna is my Soulmate. 

Shiva is my Soulmate. 

Kali is my Soulmate. 

Durga is my Soulmate. 

Somnath is my Soulmate. 

Rudra is my Soulmate. 

Bhairava is my Soulmate. 

Hanuman is my Soulmate. 

Bholenath is my Soulmate. 

Ganesh is my Soulmate. 

Sai is my Soulmate. 

Balaji is my Soulmate. 

Jagdish is my Soulmate. 

 

These are all kinds of different soulmate energies, each of a different flavor. It's like a rainbow. You appreciate a rainbow only because of it's different colors. All colors make it beautiful. Similarly all soulmate energies make us whole and complete. And transformation comes when we begin to feel whole and complete. All these energies from different soulmate deities transform us slowly in different ways and thus perfecting us and making us whole. Imagine if your parent always coddled you, it won't be a perfect upbringing. It can even be toxic. Parents can show tough love but that is also a form of love. True love will have different forms. The end objective being to love you. A soulmate will fight with you. A soulmate will also love you. The beauty lies in the execution of this love. When a soulmate fights with you, it's for your good. They don't do it out of hate. All deities show love, just in different ways, sometimes gentle, sometimes rough. 

Even Ganesha judges you when you do wrong. This is the nature of love. 

Your job is to engulf yourself into this energy and let it transform your life and you through mantra frequencies. 

When you begin to absorb this energy of the mantras and deities and Shaktipat, you begin to repel negative energy or destructive energy. All evil is nothing but destructive energy. This negative or destructive energy is the Anti - Soulmate energy. It acts like an enemy. It does the opposite and achieves the opposite of what a soulmate would do. So long you have actually been controlled by such energies. And they have been gradually wrecking your life. Once you begin to invite the brilliant energies of mantras and deities, the destructive energy is pushed out and positive energy begins to fill up your space paving the way to more peace and harmony and goodness in your life. In short it transforms you and your life for the better.
