A block in connecting to Shakti
Hi I’ve recently started Shakti Upasana and I read Lalitha Sahasranama everyday and also meditate on maa Durga! Additionally I also watch videos of gurus on YouTube to educate myself on the nature of Devi and how to approach her.
Initially I’ve had an epiphany where everything seemed to be in oneness with Devi - reflecting the advaita philosophy and it felt very natural and in alignment! From the last couple of days I’ve been feeling a little disconnected and the I in me is showing more rather than naturally gravitating towards everything and everyone is Devi — because of this I feel some sort of a disconnect.
Does this happen commonly in Devi upasana? If yes, what are some ways of giving up my ego and doership and gravitate towards Devi and her will! (I was in this state earlier and it gave me extreme bliss) please let me know how can I get back into that state of being one with Devi — thanks a lot!
