Hello seekers of knowledge in path of Spirituality.
On the occasion of Kali chaudash & Diwali, lets try to understand significance of Cremation ground- Smashan in Goddess Mahakali worship.
For her devotee, Mahakali is the most beautiful Goddess. Her beauty is multi dimentional. With her feet on Lord Shiva's body, She is most enchanting. Killing Asuras, in battle field exhibits her strength to reduce burden on Earth. In her calm form, She is a lovely mother for Her children.
Her Real form is absolutely sparkling Golden at higher level. Only when she comes down, takes her dark form. She is full of compassion for her devotees, hence appears as Golden glowing figure. Allows them a vision, to be able to see Her. She descends for betterment of the World. By destroying -ve forces, paves way for re-construction. Destruction is only a step or state before new construction begins, bringing cycle of new karmas. She teaches, how of perform karmas without getting any karma- bandhan & remain free.
Mahamaya Mahakali, only removes veil of Maya, leading a soul towards liberation. She represents the extreme power.
Lets try to understand significance of smashan in her worship.
Cremation ground is a place where a Human body, who's soul has already departed, is burnt to ashes.
Life is actually a cremation ground, where at each & every moment something is getting destroyed. If the art of creation is not learnt, life becomes stagnant. So one has to continue the cremation fire in life. True peace & happiness is achieved only after we know, what to burn.
Give oblation of our -ve pts. Offer oblation of moha, maya, greed, anger, mis-understandings, hate, revenge in the fire of cremation ground of our life. Make way for creating wealth, harmony, peace, joy. Life will become a festival. Unless -ve is not burnt, destroyed, paving way for +ve, one cant live. Hence destruction is important for re-creation. Life does begin again with re-creation.
It is said, the World is Maha smashan. Only those who have understood this secret, can live & enjoy life the most. Bhog & Moksha both exists together.
One doesnt have to go any where to find cremation ground. It exists in our life only. Goddess Mahakali teaches true essence of life. One needs to be fearless to meet her.
Wishing a Happy Kali chaudash and a very Happy Diwali to all.
