Re: Hindu names

Shakti, from Sanskrit shak - &quot;to be able,&quot; meaning sacred force or empowerment, is the primordial cosmic energy and represents the dynamic forces that move through the entire universe. [1] Shakti is the concept, or personification, of divine feminine creative power, sometimes referred to as 'The Great Divine Mother' in Hinduism. On the earthly plane, Shakti most actively manifests through female embodiment and fertility - while also existing in males, in its potential, unmanifest form.[2]

Not only is the Shakti responsible for creation, it is also the agent of all change. Shakti is cosmic existence as well as liberation, its most significant form being the Kundalini-shakti[3], a mysterious physiopsychospiritual force.[4] Shakti exists in a state of sv&amp;#257;tantrya, dependence on no-one, being interdependent with the entire universe.

In Shaktism, Shakti is worshiped as the Supreme Being. However, in other Hindu traditions of Shaivism and Vaishnavism, Shakti embodies the active feminine energy Prakriti of Purusha, who is Vishnu in Vaishnavism or Shiva in Shaivism. Vishnu's female counterpart is called Lakshmi, with Parvati being the female half of Shiva.

Re: Hindu names

can't find a thing about sherwalie

Re: Hindu names

Sorry I had a typo above. The guy spelt it Sherawalie. But the actual spelling is Sherawali which is made of two words. &quot;Shera&quot; and &quot;Wali&quot;. Shera means a lion and Wali means owner. So, literally the word means owner or master of lions.

In hinduism, there is a goddess by that name and is also called &quot;Maa Sherawali&quot; that is Mother Sherawali.
