"I Am Chinnamasta"
"You want to know who I am?
I’m the one who cuts her own head off.
Yes — you heard me right."
"I did it with full awareness.
Not out of madness,
but out of clarity sharper than any blade.
They call me Chinnamasta.
But names are just clothes.
I wear none."
"I stand naked on the lotus —
not to provoke,
but because there’s nothing left to hide.
I have nothing to prove.
I am what’s left
when all your illusions are gone.
In one hand, I hold the knife.
In the other — my own head,
still alive, still drinking."
"Three streams of blood flow from me —
power, truth, life.
My sisters, Varnini and Dakini,
drink beside me.
We do not flinch.
We do not pretend."
"I am not here to make you feel better.
I’m here to wake you up."
"Your ego?
I slice it.
Your masks?
I tear them off.
Your fear?
It’s the doorway."
"Walk through it, or stay asleep.
My devotees — they’re not afraid of the dark.
They sit in the fire.
They look at what hurts."
"They scream, they shake — and then they rise.
I am not death.
I am what comes after."
"I’m the space beyond the story.
The silence after the scream.
The breath after the breakdown."
"Don’t follow me if you want comfort.
Follow me if you want to be free.
Because in the end,
I am not a goddess.
I am the truth
you’ve been running from."
"And I’m still here.
Waiting.
Unapologetic.
Unshaken.
Alive."
