@vajraloka1 I would also like to add that when you referred to the Self as "generator" & "powerhouse," you were addressing the Self as Shakti - Shakti means Power or Force. What you seem to be (unduly) concerned about is that one might "come down" from Shakti reception & then crave for Reality outside one's Self. Yet, the same liability applies for jnana, in glimpsing the Self as Pure Being. That too can be episodic. It can be gained and lost. Your fears are unwarranted. Namaste, David
This is a common misunderstanding of Shakti (expressed by vajraloka1).
Shakti does not merely "introduce" Shiva (the Self).
Shakti is Shiva, in every respect. Both Shiva and Shakti are non-dual. The problem is you are defining Shakti as an experience and not (as an) essential constituent of Being Itself.

@Blufire48 Consciousness is Manifestation. Perceptions are perception.

Infinite, indeed, is my wealth of which nothing is mine.
Endless gifts of Grace from a Master. The Shakt, the primordial is transmitted from this excerpt.
