"There's nothing to mourn about death any more than there is to mourn
about the growing of a flower. What is terrible is not death but the
lives people live or don't live up until their death. They don't honor
their own lives, they piss on their lives. They shit them away. Dumb
fuckers. They concentrate too much on fucking, movies, money, family,
fucking. Their minds are full of cotton. They swallow God without
thinking, they swallow country without thinking. Soon they forget how
to think, they let others think for them. Their brains are stuffed with
cotton. They look ugly, they talk ugly, they walk ugly. Play them the
great music of the centuries and they can't hear it. Most people's
deaths are a sham. There's nothing left to die."
—The Captain Is Out to Lunch and the Sailors Have Taken Over the Ship, Bukowski
"One day Parvati went to bathe in the Mandakini river.with her
attendants, Jaya and Vijaya. After bathing, the great goddess's
color became black because she was sexually aroused. After some
time, her two attendants asked her, 'Give us some food. We are
hungry.' She replied, 'I shall give you food but please wait.'
After awhile, again they asked her. She replied, 'Please wit, I
am thinking about some matters.' Waiting awhile, they implored
her, 'You are the mother of the universe. A child asks everything
from her mother. The mother gives her children not only food but
also coverings for the body. So that is why we are praying to you
for food. You are known for your mercy; please give us food.'
Hearing this, the consort ofShivat old them that she would give
anything when they reached home. But again her two attendants
begged her, 'We are overpowered with hunger, O Mother of the
Universe. Give us food so we may be satisfied, O Merciful One,
Bestower of Boons and Fulfiller of Desires.'
"Hearing this true statement, the merciful goddess smiled and
severed her head. As soon as she severed her head, her head fell
on the palm of her left hand. Three bloodstreams emerged from her
throat; the left and right fell respectively into the mouths of
her flanking attendants and the center one fell into her mouth.
After performing this, all were satisfied and later returned
home. (From this act) Parvati became known as Chinnamasta."
Parvati is Shakti is Kali is Chinnamasta --the various facets & personifications of, basically, Energy ♦
