Durga - Female Energy
God in the Form of Motherhood, Birth, the Female, And Materialism
Without the Female Energy, There Is No Reproduction, No Continuity, and the World Dies
The representation of the female is that which is pretty and good-looking. It can create false appearance and materialism. She is sensuous, exotic, shapely, and sexy, decorated, and likes to be loved tenderly. She is a good cook and feeds the man, is the source of all bliss, controller of the serpent energy, upholder of the family, protector of the home, and speaks with a sweet voice to all.
Without the female energy, there is no reproduction, no continuity, and the world dies. So the heat of love, known as Shakti, must be satisfied and calmed before creation can take place in material form. The body of the woman is what makes the children who then create the universe around themselves. Without a woman there can be no birth, no man, no world, and no God. Everything comes through a woman.
