Shiva / Shakti Marriage - Om / Hrim
I learned via direct experience the significance of Shiva / Shakti's eternal embrace, which is the individual bodily representation of the Supreme Cosmic power -- a power which creates and sustains the visible and invisible worlds / dimensions.
Kundalini Shakti unites with her Beloved Consort in the transcendent realm within one's body-mind-soul system, but before that takes place many factors come into play on this journey without a map. . . A great many encounters with the Divine Forces within ones innermost sanctuary in the vastness of the Supreme Existence have to be experienced before one arrives at Supramental state.
In Aurobindo's verifying words:
"After realization of the Self, there are many things beyond that. The divine guide within urged me to proceed, adding experience after experience...Till I arrived at Supermind."
One of the most significant occurrences on this pathless path is the fact that in advanced Soul evolution the deity Archetypes introduce themselves to ones consciousness in the subtle realm.
My mystical / encounter with Kwan Yin , and my Initiation (by Her) was the most precious Gift!
It also means -- in words of author Ken Wilber -- that at this point:
"The self is then no longer exclusively bound to the ego, but it is bound to its own Archetype. The point is that as each higher-order structure emerges, the self eventually identifies with that structure -- which is normal, natural, appropriate." p. 237
(also)
"And thus the archetypes, the true archetypes, are the Forms of our own highest potential, the Forms of our own true nature, calling to us to remember who and what we really are. And in their last action, they are set aside and deconstructed -- the ladder that, having served its purpose, is discarded -- and there stands instead the radiant infinity that was always already shining through and beyond those Forms altogether." p. 359 - both quotes from The Eye of Spirit
Real mystical experience takes place within ones "glorified body" -- which is the body and the intelligence which the awakened Soul has -- the part of ourselves which literally sees the uncreated Light of Creation. The same Light that is within the depth of every being.
This is possible because in the subtle level, the Soul and God unite, at the causal level the Soul and God are both transcended in the prior identity of the Spirit / Pure Formless Consciousness -- no longer (in) union of God and Soul, but in the state of Ultimate Identity with the Godhead / Spirit / Supermind, plus Love-Bliss.
Or, as Aurobindo put it: "Supermind is an eternal reality of the divine Being and the divine Nature."
Those who don't recognize the importance the awakened Soul, think that this "sacred marriage", or "sacred sexuality" topic can be resolved/unpacked with their mental/cognitive intelligence, and therefore insists that sex with human partner means / is the same thing as the transcendent Shiva and Shakti's erotic union (24/7 mystical experience within ones body). The real Ultimate Consummation . . .Real Union eternal self-Soul with the Essence of the Absolute Supreme Being.
There is a lot of confusion around the topic of so called 'sacred sexuality' circles, because people don't know / don't recognize that, that the awakened Soul experiences life outside of earthly time.
In the flesh, the sex act has a beginning, middle and it ends. Nothing permanent about that.
Calling something "transcendental", when it's "not even close", doesn't make it so / doesn't make it "the real deal", just because he/she insists it is.
Sex gurus are hugely misguided in this area, but alas, they are the ones whose words are taken as a something final. They are welcome to do and say what they want, as long as they don't claim theirs is the last word!
And then there is me.....a big nobody who has the chutzpa to challenge them?
Not I! but the Shakti-in-me!

Transcendental Bliss is the intellect-defying God/dess / Divine Shakti / Awakened Soul, frequency vibration, which has no beginning or end.
It can never "end" because once one gets plugged into the Celestial Flame of Love, one can't fall out of it! . . . .
Individual Enlightenment is for the sake of all beings! -- for the sake of evolution of consciousness itself.
Simple, Pure, Hearts can't fall out of it!
Shakti and Shiva's bliss frequency looks like the brightest, the most eye-dazzling diamond imaginable. This Star-like diamond doesn't have a price tag. . .
Aurobindo said that this 'diamond' energy "may indicate the Mother's Light at its intensest, for that is the diamond white light".
As for its purpose?
Transcendental Bliss-energy flows out of the Crown chakra into the world's hologram / subtle planes.

I blogged about personal meta-mystical experiences with "triangles" and am glad to see others verifying words on their spiritual significance. Some named it 'sacred geometry' , which are first Forms of unqualifiable Spirit.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagram
"Within Indic lore, the shape is generally understood to consist of two triangles - one pointed up and the other down - locked in harmonious embrace. The two components are called 'Om' and the 'Hrim' in Sanskrit, and symbolizes man's position between earth and sky.
The downward triangle (*which appeared directly before/in my eye of contemplation in its silver-bright glory) symbolizes Shakti , the sacred embodiment of femininity, and the upward triangle symbolises Shiva, or Agni Tattva, representing the focused aspect of masculinity".
Also this (my) Yogic experience: I noticed in night sky's canopy two stars - witnessed their spiraling down motion. . .the closer they got to earth, the larger their silver bright glory. . .Next, their now morphed Forms resting on my front garden / lawn in shape of two very large, old fashioned looking, ploughs. I have been ploughing the Fields day and night ever since (mystically speaking).
Brief reminder note: I was Soul-directed to become energy healer in a Yogic experience in 1993. My first meeting / interaction with my Master took place in the subtle . She tested me, by asking to "pick up" a small, shimmery-black stone in the shape of a square. I confidently picked it up and instantly felt massive surge of energy lifting me off the ground. Two or three weeks later I singed up for the Workshop even though I had no idea what 'energy healing' was about. The Workshop was exciting! (Then) In my first in-class practice session I spend most of my time streatched out on the massage table. My Master was balancing my energy and something very interesting happened. At some point in her soft (meditative) voice she instructed me to stay still - explained, that a "huge triangle came over us". I came to that class with a back pain, went home without it.
This is why the triangles and the square - which many years later I saw in Aurobindo's symbol - made me jump with joy, because I could instantly See what that represents!
The funny thing is, I discovered his work when my blog-writing was well on its way. I read short quotes here and there (over the years), but it was hard to me to get my head wrapped around his terminology. It was that, but also that he was a "spiritual giant". Now more than ever I am glad I didn't know his work prior to my Yogic and mystical experiences. It reassures me that my subconscious mind didn't 'create' them in order to fulfill some egoic want.
Mirra's (Sri Aurobindo's spiritual partner) quote on 'glorified body' is interesting to me:
"When the physical body is thoroughly divinised, it will feel as if it were always walking on air, there will be no heaviness or tamas or unconscious-ness in it. There will be no end to its power of adaptability: whatever conditions it is placed it will immediately be equal to the demands made upon it (...) lasticity will enable it to stand the attack of every hostile force . . : (*yes!)
it will present no dull resistance to the attack but will be, on the contrary, so pliant as to nullify the force by giving way to it to pass off . . . (*yes! that's why Supracosmic Tonglen Duty works, but this process is much, more complicated then what Mirra presents, bec. the attacks come from living beings whose (vital) mind's parasites unleash their furry)
Lastly, it will be turned into the stuff of light each cell will radiate the supramental glory.
Not only those who are developed enough to have their subtle sight open but the ordinary man will be able to perceive this luminosity. It will be an evident fact to each and all, a permanent proof of the transformation which will convince even the most sceptical."

I think Mirra's vision was on the right track, but I question those last three sentences, since even I need a proper lighting to see my golden light aura -- which I discovered by fluke w/eyes open i.e. in 94' - also, next to the skin a finger-wide blue ribbon of light, I named my Heavenly Robe.
I think Mirra got overly optimistic?
