MASTER STORYTELLER
"What is it , that you know always, that all the yogis always want to know?" The Devi once asked her beloved Nath, Shiva. Shiva smiled, laughed, and then spoke exaltedly like a poet,
" This earth upon which we sit, the hills, these trees, the springs, this soft wind,even the moon! the sky! those distant stars that bejewel the night as offerings to you,truly, dearest," He exclaimed, arising, "The entire universe is a projection from the pristine essence within me; this human bodied yogi you love-your husband, Shankar! I am always the knower of the highest transcendence, I am always the knower of what is always."
The Devi was impressed, but, " Where do i fit in?" she asked teasingly.
"You, Parvati," He urged emphatically, "are the embodiment of Shakti, my inseparable power of dynamics, you cause the projection, without you, there would be no manifest world, and i would remain ever, in my transcendence , by myself."
