Understanding the Roots of Negativity

  The weight of negativity is such that it more than affects our moods for a moment in the day or just for a day. As we all know powerful moods can even be carried with us for a week or more. The implications of what that can look like or how it can be held in the body varies.  Negativity--A Hidden Weight  Chronic negativity can trigger stress responses in the body, which, over time, may contribute to physical discomfort and vulnerability. Varies to such a high degree that for some it becomes debilitating physically--impeding mobility, affecting the body in ways that manifest as heart conditions, immunity conditions, etc with no explanations that make sense to medical professionals.

Behind the Name

 The name Mahaavidyaa means Goddess of Great Wisdom. Mahaa - great Vidyaa - wisdom Many times a seeker pursues the path of Tantra because they are on a quest for supernatural powers. And sometimes the seeker does receive supernatural powers. What are these supernatural powers? Surviving freezing temperatures, withstanding immense heat, levitation, the ability to make fire appear from, seemingly, out of nowhere....  Sometimes the seekers can live extraordinarily long lives, between 250-1000 years and more. Many can survive on very little to no food, some merely surviving only on air itself. And then there are those who can even live without breath... for ages.  But that's not how it starts.  In the beginning the seeker should only be seeking knowledge, for it is only knowledge that is given in the beginning. Knowledge comes by transfer from teacher to student, through prophetic dreams, information scribbled in a book or by obtaining knowledge through another p...
