Table Of ContentTHE POWER OF
SHAKTI
“An excellent sourcebook for both women and men, every page of The Power
of Shakti provides new insight into the rich, vibrant energy of the Divine
Feminine. It offers a profound pathway to understanding the power and
potency of this essential feminine current as it flows through the sacred
temple of the physical body, linking us to the Galactic Center. In these shifting
times of planetary transformation, this book assists us in rediscovering our
intimate connection to nature, the earth, and the cosmos.”
SHARRON ROSE, AUTHOR OF THE PATH OF THE PRIESTESS AND
FILM PRODUCER OF 2012 THE ODYSSEY AND TIMEWAVE 2013
“The Power of Shakti is revolutionary and is bound to open the gates that
have kept us from our true power as both men and women. It taps in to the
heart of the ancient mysteries and articulates their modern-day message to we
humans. Reading this material or attending Padma Prakasha’s seminars will
rock your world.”
LINDA STAR WOLF, AUTHOR OF SHAMANIC BREATHWORK AND
COAUTHOR OF SHAMANIC MYSTERIES OF EGYPT: AWAKENING THE
HEALING POWER OF THE HEART
“The Power of Shakti will revitalize your life by revealing the patterns of
energy that flow between the physical body and the galactic universe. Equally
esoteric and practical, it offers illuminating insight into holistic health
through scholarly understanding of the body’s dynamic light field. The
author’s profound integrity, knowledge, and experience enrich every page.
This is not an ordinary book; it is unique, provocative, and fresh.”
ISHA LERNER, AUTHOR OF THE TRIPLE GODDESS TAROT AND
INNER CHILD CARDS
Acknowledgments Carol Mara, Tanaa
I THANK
Anra, Laura Re, Tarananda, and Whitney for
being some of the first people to step through
some of the eighteen pathways. Your courage,
dedication, commitment, and selfless, total
giving are examples of what all need to embody.
Much of the writing came through these women
as they burned through the fires and activated
their eighteen pathways, particularly Tanaa and
Carol. The direct voice of Shakti came through
to provide some of the experiential revelation
that the eighteen pathways contain.
I thank Laura Re for helping me edit the manuscript, and my daughter Isha
Prakasha for paving the way for these teachings and revelations to anchor once
more on Earth. I love you. Thank you to Whitney for immersing in this more
with me, and providing your home for me to complete the writing of this book.
Thank you to my Beloved Anaiya for being with me with all of this. I would like
to thank also all the priestesses who are now recongregating to bring the Black
Light and the loving power of Divine Woman back onto Earth again.
Thank you to Ja-lene Clark, my literary agent, for being a loving support for
my work.
Thank you to Jon Graham at Inner Traditions for being open and feeling
directly what Shakti is all about.
Thank YOU dear reader for being here on Earth now and stepping forward. I
am here to serve you.
