It is a mistake of the religious and ethical mind to condemn power and to demonise power. ( Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely )
On the contrary , Power is divine and put here for a divine use.
A Power to call Eternity into Time
And makes the body's joy as vivid as the Soul's
Power, Shakti, is the mover of the worlds. She is beginningless because of her structural inherence in the phenomenal worlds. Yes, we are talking about She who is all this and the entire story of Evolution is the Story of Her who redisovers Him and tries to reincarnate Him everywhere.
She flings forth from Him in an outburst of joy, only to find Him playing in Time, She and He, Two in one, the inseparable Purusha and Prakriti !
Machiavelli averred that armed prophets have succeeded, where the unarmed had failed.
In our tradiition, we say without the Life Force one is dead ( Without Siva one is Sava)) and this was beautifully expressed as an equation by the great Shaw.
Living Body-Dead Body = Soul; Pranan Brahma.
Shaw was influenced by Heri Bergson and his concept of LEvolution Creatrice, Creative Evolution. Everything is done by CE and its errors are the Problem of Evil !
Another influencer was Dr Annie Besant, who consecrated her life to the Eternal Law, and who held that the Eternal Law was indeed great !
