The uncompromising path of total offering
Offering your identity, pride, attachments, and the sense of "I am this body." What survives that fire is what She actually accepts.
Real, bone-level comfort with impermanence. Embracing the death of every plan and illusion without macho bravado.
No backup plans or secret compartments. "All" means money, relationships, reputation, and even the desire for liberation itself.
She does not gently polish you; She tears down whatever is false. The sādhaka is expected to say "Jaya Mā" through loss, upheaval, and the deepest spiritual darkness.
Strict vows, daily ritual, and the inner wildfire of raw devotion that burns away etiquette and social conditioning.
Do not expect power, wealth, or revenge. She may give nothing back in the way the ego wants. The real prize is Herself—recognized only after everything else is ash.
"What it takes" = everything
+ the courage to keep standing naked in front of Her even when it feels like nothing is left.
