The Hindu Goddess Tara represents the power of Sound (& Silence), which leads us across the waters of our emotional turmoil. Tara is the second Mahavidya that represents the Big Bang, the original soundless sound, the very faculty of hearing. Tara meditation may involve listening to the sound of silence, which is always present as the background of all sounds. Tara is also Mantra Shakti, the power of the original vedic sound frequencies that connect us to the Self. Mantras, whether devoted to the Hindu goddess Tara or not, calm down the subconscious mind and take out the root of any unhappy emotions.   The 10 Mahavidyas are 10 “great bodies of knowledge” where Tantra meets Advaita Vedanta (nonduality). Through these 10 goddesses we learn about the nondual nature of primordial energy or Shakti, which is also the life force. Thus 10 secret Tantric mysteries are revealed, whose power will boost your spiritual growth. Expanding mind, body and consciousness, the related practices provide powerful tools for contemplation, meditation and true connection to the life force, both inside as outside.  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/peter-marchand0/message
