Tara For President (Make Humanity Great Again)!

I've known of the Tibetan Buddhist Tara for some time and have enjoyed the pleasantries of "Om Tare Tu Tare Soha". A calming mantra, but hasn't been much more than that for me. I've also known the Mahavidya Tara, but chose to dedicate my practice to Kali and simply imbue all other qualities within the form of Kali. Nonetheless, my curiosity and research had me dive in deeper, to find if there is a difference between the two, especially since they stem from "tantric" traditions. It seems that the Indian Tara is associated with China, and hence, there quite possibly is a common origin between the two.

Last Diwali Eve, October 29, 2016, I met some of my sister's friends, one who had a daughter named Tara. As a fan of the tantric traditions, I glimmered in the simple fact of this little girl's name. The following morning of Diwali, by random chance I stumbled onto the history channel for an excerpt on the "Hill of Tara" located in Ireland. Later on that day, while driving to another relative's home, I came across a Cafe named "TaRa". Coincidence?
By this time, I'm freaking out with Tara showing up all over the place. It took a few days of ruminating before I decided that it was time to get re-acquainted with her again. Though the Mahavidya Tara would show up in my studies, I never spent time with her mantra, or in other words, I haven't yet gotten to know her. After glancing through prior books again for a quick reminder, I picked up my Tibetan Smokey Quartz and a copper Yantra dedicated for all of the Mahavidyas and got to work using the Mahavidya Tara mantra. 
Though a short mantra, it was difficult for my mind to retain. Moreover, quite a bit of blockages, or bodily tensions would arise begging for my attention. The Tibetan Tara is quite comforting and compassionate, where the Mahavidya is another vicious Kali. Entering into deep relaxation, imagining myself completely empty surrounded by darkness at the cremation grounds, basically dead with no care of the vultures feasting on my fears, and after a few moments, I felt that her presence was near. Because of my experience with Kali, when I felt Tara's presence with her scissors ready to similarly cut my head off, that's when the fear left and I galloped into her arms like a child seeing his mother. Calmly and lovingly I realized, I no longer have any fears when it comes to the Terribly Terrific forms of the Goddess, for I am loved.

Kali is associated with the Universe, the macrocosm, where Tara may work more on an individual level, the microcosm. Switching to Kali's mantra, I felt calm and stable like a wave-less pond. Switching back to Tara, numerous tensions would arise, which I only assume was part of the healing process. She is nonduality, where there is no man-made ethics or morale, right or wrong, this or that, simply complete unity with "all that is". Given that I have already sought to delete such societal notions for a vaster awareness, there was no need for her to show me something shocking to frighten me. Hence, she just played with, showed me some things that I hope to be of my future. However, more-so than such visions, she brought me closer to emptiness, a universal awareness, or an awareness that I am the universe, and the non-awareness beyond such. As opposed to being completely cut-off from my little ego-identity body self, I was able to feel its miniature presence, but why bother with that little pile of flesh. 
Tara is one badass energy, which brought back that spark of "holy shit" to my meditation. More and more I'm feeling completely blessed on where my spiritual path has taken me, and feel that it's pushing me into a life with divine purpose, though not clear on what that is yet. I've proven something to myself, and I can only hope for more. I've always felt a bit misanthropic and now, as my meditations get deeper, it's harder to relate even more to most individuals that I come across. There's something so much more powerful that lurks within us, however, we have constantly given our strength away to Priests, Teachers, Doctors, and these Politicians. Something is awakening within us, beckoning us to reach for more beyond our 3rd dimensional illusions, for those willing. 
In a world crying over the loss of the Rothschild Hillary to the David Duke Trump, I can only feel more Self-Empowered! 
P.S.  If I were to actually cast a vote, it would probably be for this "Nasty Woman".

    "Samadhi/No-Mind" or the "I Am/Divine Presence" should Feel (Chit) like the Free-Falling Blissful (Ananda) Conscious (Sat​) State Post-Orgasm, Post Central-Nervous System Flush of the Body, Where the Adept simply Falls Quietly Deeper Within Themselves. A True Surrender of Letting Go, Journeying Down the Rabbit Hole.  A True Sacrifice of Egoic-Samsara, for Nirvana.
