Hladini Shakti (ह्लादिनी शक्ति)

Hladini Shakti (ह्लादिनी शक्ति | hlādinī śakti) is the bliss-giving aspect present within God's three primary powers—Yogamaya, Jeev Shakti, and Maya Shakti. Its function differs within each power.

Understanding

All three eternal powers — Yogamaya, Jeev, and Maya— possess Hladini Shakti though its function differs in each.

  • Hladini Shakti of Yogamaya, manifests the Divine sweetness, beauty, charm, bliss, and loving ecstatic experiences of the Divine realm.
  • Hladini Shakti of Jeev, Hladini Shakti of Jeev Shakti grants mukti to a gyani.
  • Hladini Shakti of Maya, is reason why the worldly pleasures appear enjoyable to the materially bound soul.

Thus, the same category of bliss potency operates differently according to the nature of the energy in which it resides.
