Mystic Fact or Sacred Fragrance? All Wings or all Eyes?





Contemporary Kali Puja in Bengal photo: @joel.bordeaux 


  • ⚔ Kali derives in part from the ancient deity of indigenous Tamil, India named "Kottavai" a warrior goddess. Kottavai rides a tiger, wears a necklace of tiger teeth, and shouts in victory kurava! on the battlefield where she comes to kill, eat flesh and drink blood. Kottavai embodies "ananku" an early conception of "shakti" the dangerous power inherent to the natural world, female humans, and deities. Ananku can be found in the breasts, loins, and genitals of living women, and manifests as both violent and sexual energy. In ancient cultures dramatic possession performances acting out the passionate and violent nature of this supernatural energy were essential to society, and yet always threatened to get out of control. These mother cults of old stress in their literature the importance of women warriors, shamans and oracles in religious life which made central evocation and management of these ambivalent powers through war, bloodshed, sexuality and possession performance. Devotees of Goddess Kottavai included female dancers who accompanied male warriors to battle singing, dancing, and drumming. Rituals performed on the battlefield were considered the most intense confrontation between man and divine, where Goddess Kottavai danced accompanied by a host ghosts and demon women [Sarah Caldwell, Tracing Kali Through Space, Time and Culture] ⚔

7 Figure Secrets

Hola peoples, Here is the lowdown... Back in February of 2007, Mike Filsaime held a secret Private Workshop at an undisclosed location. Over 100 people paid $5000 for the Workshop. He then took those DVD's (Which now sell for $1297) and sold it out in record fashion in under 7 days to 2500 people. Since then... over 3000 people have paid for that information. The success stories that followed have changed the face of Internet Marketing. (Filsaime, along with his 37 Staff Members, will do $10,000,000 this year in sales and is credited with showing other marketers how to grow a 7 figure Business.) SO what?! Ok so this is why I am even talking about this at all. A) I like Mike and the information he provides for what I am up to in life. B) Mike hired an Internet Marketing Expert and Copywriter (That also attended the event.) Paid this "TOP GUN" $25,000 to watch all 16 DVD's of "The 7 Figure Code" and condense it into a Masterpiece... THE RESULT... An 85 Page re...
