The obstacle for real meditation

That's why I think one must first break free from the shackles of the world in order to live freely in the real world. 

I believe it's not necessary to break down physically; it's enough to do it mentally. To truly live as if death or catastrophe (for example, a serious illness) could happen in a minute. Which is absolutely true.

By the way, if you like Kali, you should read The Gospel of Ramakrishna if you don't already know it. He embodied Kali and surrendered himself completely to her. The openness in which he lived is beyond comprehension.

I didn't, I read some about Ramakrishna time ago and I didn't get it a lot but now thinking about it seems that he's the mystic that really understood the creative power, the positive affirmation that being implies, and the absolute beauty of the form.

About Kali, destruction has something like erotic, but I'm the sense of totally giving yourself, like from destruction the new emerges, the pure being in a clean form forged in the pain and fight. Kali steps Shiva because from the absolute, the dance of form always arises, creation without limit, absolutely wild, without control, unfathomable depth from the unlimited vitality of the unlimited abyss manifest itself. Kali is the absolute mystery taking forms, dancing with itself staring you with the face of a demon that hides a god.

For me, form is only here to help me learn how to free myself from it. Ultimately, I see it as a projection of the mind, and when the mind is completely pure, there is no more projection, only endless expanse without limits.

Probably this is the other side of the absolute, the purest, the unlimited without quality. For me it's always with quality, like the unlimited means all the qualities merged, the fact of being is affirmative, it's like brilliant, expansion, glory of being. But probably this could have a part of projection
