Follow the path of the radiant life force ..by Radiance Sutras

Follow the path of the radiant life force 
as she flashes upward like lightning 
through your body. 

Attend simultaneously 
to the perineum, that bright place between the legs, 
to the crown of the skull, 
and to that shining star-place above the head. 

Notice how this living electricity becomes ever more subtle 
as she rises, radiant as the morning sun 
until she streams outward from 
the top of the head into all-embracing gratitude. 

Thus become intimate with the life of all beings. 

Or trace the river of life that flows through you, 
the luxuriously rising energies, 
Gradually kissing each of the centers along the spine, 
Savor each particle of color along the way. 

Enter each area tenderly, loving as you go 
and then finally, gently 
dissolving in the crown of the head. 

~ Radiance Sutras

Be wildly devoted to someone or something....The Vijnana Bhairava Tantra

Be wildly devoted to someone
or something.
Cherish every perception.

At the same time, forget about control.
Allow the Beloved to be itself
and to change.

Passion and compassion,
holding and letting go,
This ache in your heart is holy.

Accept it as the rise of intimacy
With life’s secret ways.

Devotion is the Divine streaming
through you
From that place in you before time.

Love’s energy flows through your body,
Toward a body, and into eternity again.

Surrender to this current of devotion
And become one with the Body of Love.

~ The Vijnana Bhairava Tantra


The Vijnana Bhairava Tantra is a conversation between Devi, the Goddess Who Is the Creative Power of the Universe, and her lover Shiva, the Consciousness Who Permeates Everywhere. Devi dares Shiva to describe the practices for becoming at one with the sacred Reality. In reply, Shiva enumerates a hundred and twelve yogas. In Sutra 98 he gives a bhakti practice.
